Chapter 2- Present Day Japan
It was a nice warm afternoon at Tokyo High School. There was not a cloud in the sky.
"Hey, Rei!" someone called.
"Oh, hey, Raion!" Rei called back. Raion was one of Rei's close friends. He was tall and dark with brown hair and brown eyes. He was really cute!
"Me and some of the other guys wanted to know if you were going to play basketball with us today," Raion asked.
"No, I can't today," Rei apologized. " I have a big test coming up, and I have to study. Sorry. Maybe later?"
"It's alright," Raion said understandingly. "I really wanted you to meet my cousin who is going to transfer here. Oh well, next time, okay?"
"Yeah, I promise I won't have to study anything next week," Rei said. "Well, see ya later!"
"Alright, 'bye!" Raion called as she began to leave. The wind picked up, and Rei's long, waiste-length black hair began to flow with the breeze.
"Hey, Raion," somebody said after she left. It was his cousin. "Who was that girl you were talking to?"
"Rei Tsurugi," Raion said.
"She's really hot!" His cousin said. "Would you hook me up with her?"
"Nope," said Raion with a grin on his face. "Rei has never gone out with any guy before."
"So?"
"Every guy that has asked her out or tried to touch her in that way, ends up kissing the ground with a bloody nose, a couple of black eyes, and a broken heart," Raion said. "She's a really cool person to be with, but she's. oh, I don't know how to describe it."
"Someone, who's unreachable," Raion's cousin said looking at her backside. "And with a hot ass!"
"Okay, that's enough!" Raion said dragging his cousin away from looking at Rei.
Rei began walking faster. It wasn't because she heard everything that Raion and the other guy was saying about her. It was because she felt something wrong at her house. She didn't know it, but the necklace with the iron and black marble in it that she had since she was a little child began to glow red for the very first time. She broke out into a sprint. Rei burst into her house at the shrine without even taking off her shoes.
"Uncle Ken!" Rei called searching for her uncle in every room of the house. She called his name again.
No answer.
As she neared her uncle's bedroom, she saw her uncle on the floor digging underneath his bed frantically. Rei rushed to his side dropping her gym bag on the floor.
"Uncle Ken, is something wrong?" Rei asked. "I had this feeling that something was wrong. Is everything okay?"
"SHHH!" Uncle Ken said as he pulled a long thing with a cloth over it and laid it aside. "Something has happened, and you have to get out of here, now!"
He pulled another large thing out covered in another cloth.
"Uncle Ken, tell what is going on?" Rei demanded.
"Alright, I'll tell as soon as I get all of my weapons out," Uncle Ken said. "We have to hurry! He knows you're alive!"
"Who?" Rei asked concerned.
"Akuma!"
Rei's necklace began to glow again.
"The one guy you do not want to know," Uncle Ken said as he pulled out the last covered object. "I can't go into much detail, I will explain briefly about your parents so you will not fall into any traps."
Uncle Ken briefly explained about how her parents were killed, and how he found Rei still alive.
"Look, Rei," Uncle Ken said. "You have got to get out of here"
"What about you?" Rei asked.
"My methods of defending myself will only hurt you, do you understand?" Uncle Ken said shortly. "Now, I want you to have this."
Uncle Ken uncovered the longest object beside him and handed it to Rei. Her amber eyes went wide open.
"Kiba," Uncle Ken said.
"Kiba?" Rei repeated. "I don't get it!"
"This is made from the last demon wolf tribe in Ginga," Uncle Ken said as Rei took it. "It served your father well!"
"My father!?" Rei said.
"This was your father's sword," Uncle Ken said. "Here, put the rest of these on!"
Uncle Ken helped Rei load herself with the weapons that were once her mother and father's weapons. Rei weighed atleast a ton more than average with all of the heavy metal she was now wearing. She had two daggers on her calves, another at her side along with her sword, Kiba, and a bow wrapped around her chest and shoulder and a quiver full of arrows at her back.
"Now, you must leave!" Uncle Ken beckoned.
"Not until you prove to me that you have some sort of useful method of defense," Rei said stubbornly.
Uncle Ken sighed and said, "Might as well tell you now than never. Rei, everyone on your mother's and my side of the family was a sorcerer of the elements. I believe that we should be able to depend on our own selves to fight rather than our powers. So, after the war, I came here and took up being a priest. I absolutely love it! As soon as you leave, I will guard this place where no demons can come in! It will be invisible to the mortal eye, but you will be able to see it, for you are half-mortal and half- immortal! Rei, because you are half wolf demon, you will not be able to go through the barrier. But because you are half sorceress, you will be able to cross, but only by reverse spells and such. Do you understand?"
Rei nodded slightly.
"Now," Uncle Ken said smiling a little bit. "Get the hell outta here!"
"Okay, but where do I go?"
Uncle Ken reached for her necklace. Rei took it off and handed it to him. He gazed at the marble and chanted something. Then, a portal-like hole formed! It was pitch black.
"All you have to do to get to Ginga is to think of your parents while gazing into the marble. Same as getting back here, but I do not advise it. The way to break the barrier I'm putting up is by saying your full name, your mother's full name, and your father's full name in that order."
He gave her a slight push toward the portal.
" One other thing," he said. "When the marble begins to glow red, you will know that he is near by."
He gave her back her necklace and shoved her into the portal. The portal closed up and she was gone!
Uncle sighed and thought to himself, 'She is no coming back, atleast not for awhile, for I have placed seal on the portal.' "Now, to work!" Uncle Ken said and hurried off to place the barrier where no demon could enter. Meanwhile, Rei Tsurugi was off to another dimension called GINGA!
See, that wasn't too bad! The prolog chapter was really depressing, but I told you it would get better! Thanx! Later, Wolveryna
