CHAPTER ONE
Joey slipped quietly into the run down building and jumped slightly as he saw the breeze from the door being opened move the tapestry next to it. He prayed Tea would hurry up and get there soon. He felt someone grab his shoulder from behind to turn him around, and he jumped slightly in surprise, but he knew it was Tea. He hated being the weaker of the two. Not being as strong as his girlfriend was a bit strange. But then again, it would be for anyone. Although she had her slayer powers, he still worried about her, though. She was out nearly every night, usually with no backup. There were demons, vampires, so many things that could harm her. Joey hated that Pegasus insisted she go alone, but he said that was the way things should be.
Tea had become too dependant on her watchers over the years. When she first became a Slayer, she was only 13. Pegasus was to be her watcher when he was done with his training, but he didn't go to her until she was 15. For two whole years she'd been trained by temporary Watchers and eventually became fully dependant on them and her friends.
Here in the old building, Joey felt safe. Like he had a guardian angel watching over him. Joey was about to speak when they both spotted a shadow outside the doorway. Tea hand signaled Joey to be very quiet. She was gripping the wooden stake in her hand so tightly that her knuckles were turning white. She slipped out the door and merely seconds later, Joey heard the familiar sounds of a vampire being slain. Shortly thereafter, Tea walked back inside the building.
"So, you wanted to show me somethin'?" Tea asked, curious about why Joey had been so enthusiastic.
"Yeah, this." He said, pulling a coin out of his pocket.
"You brought me here to show me a nickel?" she asked in monotone.
"Not a nickel. It's a. . .um. . .well, see the markings?"
she stared down at the coin in her hand. On one side there appeared to be a half-moon and a star, and on the other side was what looked like a cloud covering a the sun.
"I've. . .seen this picture before. . ." Tea commented "where'd you find it?"
"Well, remember last week, that vamp robbed the museum? Well, when you dusted him he dropped this. I recognized the markings so I thought I'd keep it. Then a few nights ago when we broke up that feast in here, well, follow me."
he led her to the door in the back of the room and opened it to reveal empty darkness. He flipped a switch and a dim light flickered on. In the center of the room was a stone coffin which the vampires had lain their victim on the night before to feast on it, and a cauldron next to that. Joey pushed Tea's chin up with his hand so that she was facing the ceiling.
"Leave it up to you to memorize things on the ceiling." she joked around, looking from the coin to the ceiling.
The markings on the coin and ceiling were the same. Now all Tea had to do was take the coin to Ryou and tell him about the marks on the ceiling. Hopefully, their Spellcaster would have some idea of what this coin did or what the symbols were.

Peggi-Well, how was that for a chapter one? The last chapter was strictly a prologue which takes place a few days before this chapter does. Okay, for those of you who are confused by the title of the fic, Forbidden Love is not a romance ficcy. Yes, there is some romance in it, but it's more action/adventure and horror with some comedy then romance.
Tea-Up until around the middle it will mostly be action/adventure and comedy but by the middle there will be a lot of blood and gore and death.
Malik-Blood?
Bakura-Death?
Malik-Gore?
Bakura-Yummy!
Peggi-Well, please review and I'll have the next chapter up as soon as I can, but I'm sure you've noticed this is more descriptive then my other fics (which makes the bloody parts in the middle better) so it takes longer to write this. Oh, also I'd like to thank moonkid3734 for reviewing. I'm off to start the next chapter!
