(Writer-Person):
Okay, some quick miscellaneous info then it's off to the story.
-This takes place in the 'present time' of the manga. (so Mahiru is a teenager.)
-Mahiru and the people of the Lunar Race don't know each other. (yet. o.o)
-I'm going to have to twist some things in the first book around, so bear with me.
DISCLAIMER: I own an assortment of random things, but not the wonderfulness that makes Crescent Moon so awesome. (translation: I don't claim anything, all characters belong to their respectful owners, blah blah blah...)
Prologue:
Snow fell, making the air cold and wet. Mahiru sat in the backseat of her parent's car as they brought her to school. For whatever reason, Mahiru's mother insisted that she ride with them instead of walking in the wet mess outside.
Just as they were slowing down for a stoplight, the car hit a patch of black ice, causing the car to slide directly into oncoming traffic...
(hours later)
"How is she?"
"We're not sure. She's still in the critical stage...I don't know if she will make it through the night."
"And her parents?"
"Already passed. Lets hope she doesn't follow them."
Normally, a doctor wouldn't discuss such privet matters with a hospital volunteer, but in this case, it didn't seem to matter. The girl laid motionless and cold on her bed, it was almost as if she, too, had left the living world.
The hospital volunteer sat down next to her bed and read the cards sent from the girl's friends at school.
'We're sorry for the misfortune.'
'Get well soon.'
'Thinking of you.'
So many cards, but not one of these so called 'friends' were here to support their dying companion. "Such a pity. None of them realize how special you are...thats okay though. Your true friends will show themselves soon." With a sigh, the volunteer got up and turned out the light. "Sleep well, Princess." he thought to himself before leaving the room.
Moonlight Saviors
Chapter one
Mahiru awoke in a soft bed with silky sheets and many warm blankets to keep her safe and warm. She sat up to look around, trying to remember how she got there. The room was made up of white and cream-colored things, a room fit for royalty.
"So you're awake."
Mahiru turned to see a rather tall human with long hair and ears of a ...fox?
"Are you feeling alright now?"
"Y-yeah. My head kind of hurts, but other than that, I'm fine...Um, pardon me for asking, who (and what) are you?"
The humanlike-fox creature walked over to Mahiru. "My name is Misoka. I'm half werefox."
Mahiru blinked. "And the other half?"
"Human. Like you." Misoka told her.
Although she had trouble believing that such a individual could be human, Mahiru nodded and got out of the bed. "Do you know how I got here, Misoka?"
"No." He frowned. "You just appeared in our palace, but Master Oboro said to let you stay and assist you when you awoke."
"Oh..." Mahiru looked down at the ground and noticed that her school shoes were missing. In fact, all of her clothes were different. She was now wearing a midnight blue kimono with silvery stars stitched into it. It reminded her of the night's sky on a cloudless night.
"If you're feeling well enough," Misoka continued, pulling her from la-la-land, "We need you to come with me for a while. The Emperor will not be pleased to find you in one of his guest's chambers."
Mahiru nodded. "Okay. Where are we going?"
"To Master Oboro. He has something for you."
(Writer-Person):
Pardon the way short chapter. (sorry!) It's easier to write them shorter so I can keep thinking about things for the upcoming chapters. (heh, pathetic excuse, I know.) Anywho, I'll only continue this if someone wants me too. Feel free to tell me how much my writing skills suck ,(no, really. be honest.) or if I messed something up or whatever. okay?
(::easily bribed with reviews::)
oh yeah, as always, I'll fix any and all errors as soon as I notice them.
My thanks for reading! (::waves::)
