Prince of Shadows:
Chapter One: A few Revelations

"Yes, miss. I am sorry you must still be faint. Gosh, I mean dying can be a tiring experience. Good thing it can only happen once," the blonde laughed at her own joke, "Wow, I kill myself. kill myself.." the blonde stopped to catch a breath as the laughter continued. I shook my head as I continued to hear her laughter from down the hall. As I began to walk up the stairs, I wondered where she had told me to turn.
" Yuki! Hey Yuki! Long time no see, ne?" a voice asked from behind her.
"Ack! Yumiko, you scared me. Yumiko??? What are you doing here!!!!?" I shrieked, " You're supposed to be alive and the Chancellor is supposed to be dead. How could you do that? Just let him get away." I ranted starting to become hysterical.
" But. but Yuki, I didn't let him get away. Ya see when I was fighting him I realized he knew me. The chancellor, he helped train me. He knew all of my moves and the only way to take him out would be to surprise him. That is where your. spirit came into play. Remember when you taught me a few spells and one of them being 'Rapio'. Well, I used that spell to grab a sword from his hand and stabbed him, though that spell really drained my energy. Now, that wouldn't have been a problem, though one of the guards had wakened up and grabbed his sword. I saw him and tried to move and the next thing I know there are clouds underneath my feet," Yumiko finished gasping for breath, " Kami, where are we?" Yumiko asked afterwards as he looked around some more, " My Kami, that lady has wings!" he yelled as he set eyes on the bubbly blonde.
"Yes, Yumiko, she does. You wanna know why. I'll tell ya. We are in Heaven. Literally. You know what I know that this is probably a awkward time to ask but, what in God's name does Kami mean? You say it so much, but I don't think that it's a word. So, what is it?" I questioned as a puzzled look skimmed Yumiko's face as he squinted his eyes.
"I. I don't know. I just say it. I know that it is a word though. It just seems natural to say it. Just like holding a sword and fighting does. Remember when you taught me those spells and were amazed at how fast I picked up on them, I don't know why because the Royal class isn't supposed to be good at fighting or magic. You know that. That they. we are only supposed to be good in studies and I am, but. I don't know." Yumiko pondered and I must say it was one of the most thought-provoking speeches he has ever made. And it did make me think because you can tell Royals from all the other classes because they are fair-haired with blue eyes, but Yumiko is the exact opposite.
"God, Yumiko! You're right. You can't be a royal you don't even look like them. What if. what if you really are the Chancellor's son? I mean you do look a lot like him. I mean you are good at magic, though not as good as me, and good in sword handling and fighting. What are you, Yumiko?" I asked. Now I must confess I was getting chills. He was right he couldn't be a royal.
"Oh, God Yumiko. I think we just stumbled onto something very big," I whispered, " Oh God, Oh God!"
Abruptly another voice appeared behind me and as I turned around, I looked up. way up.
" Did I just hear someone call my name? Hello? Yes, I'm here."
"Oh, God!" I murmured.
"Yes?!"
"Ummm."
"Oh, did you call me. Hmm. you haven't seemed to be checked in. Oh my! You still have your body. Both of you. You must follow me," the giant said as he loomed over both of us. All we could do was nod as we followed.
"Hey, Yumiko? Where do you think he's leading us?" I inquired.
" I have no clue, Yuki. No clue," he answered as he looked at me with exasperation written on his face.
Soon, we came up to two huge looming doors and I immediately thought that there would be another Giant to greet us, but instead, when the First Giant opened the doors and we looked up there was no one there.
"Excuse me, down here." a voice said as we started to lower our heads until they came to rest on a tiny purple man floating about half a foot above the ground, " That will be all, King Yemma. If I need anymore help I will call you back up."
"Yes, sir." the giant responded while he walked out of the room and closed the doors behind him.
"Now, I'm sure you two must be thoroughly confused by now," the purple man sympathized, " But, soon, everything will be explained," he said as Yumiko put his hand up, " thoroughly. And all questions will be kept until after my explanation." he finished as Yumiko's hand went back down.
"Now, as you two might already suspect. You are dead, but you have your bodies and if you had looked around, you also would have noticed that hardly anyone else does. This is because you need your bodies for extremely important reasons, but before we get to that, you must understand this. Both of you are from different dimensions, neither from the same. Moreover, both of you were kidnapped for two very different reasons. You Yuki, or should I say Shana, are from a Planet called Earth from 2007 ADE and you Yumiko, or Gohan, are from Earth also but from 761 ADE." he said as he was cut off when a sinister being crept up from behind him.
" Oh, Shiny. I have a surprise for you," the being bellowed as he put his hands together as if he was praying as a little ball of blue energy erupted from his hands, then he put all finger down until only the index and thumb were still upright and cried, " Shi' Hanta" as blue light corrupted from his hands at Shin.
" Quick both of you put to fingers to your forehead and hold onto each other," he said as we both did so, Yumiko putting his hand around my waist my arm around his neck as Shin chanted a few words.
"Good luck," he said as we disappeared from the blue light that had erupted into the room.
