Kaida Okami – The Prophesy
Chapter Two
Prophesy Reviled

Kaida entered King Emma's court and mentally whistled. The room was 30 times

bigger than Koenma's and filled with numerous treasures and artifacts. On the far wall,

behind King Enma's desk was a small shelf/cabinet, made of solid gold. The thief in

Kaida was busy envisioning what beautiful treasure might be held in it when King Enma

walked into the room fallowed closely by, what appeared to be, his attendant.

Kaida bowed respectfully to Enma and nodded to the attendant. Summoning her

knowledge of Court etiquette, Kaida prepared herself for what ever it was Lord Enma

may have summoned her for.

"My Lord," Kaida began, bowing again. "My I ask why you have summoned me

here?" she asked.

Enma settled a stern glare in her direction.

"Might I see the medallion." He said, more than asked, ignoring her question

completely.

Kaida looked at the medallion with the likeness of a wolf on it that she had stolen from a

ningen jewelry shop before meeting Yusuke and the others. Slowly, she lifted the

necklace from around her neck and handed it to Enma, knowing she didn't really have an

option.

Enma took it and examined it closely.

"This is the one." He said, almost to himself.

He handed the medallion to his attendant.

"Take it to the vault." He instructed.

"My Lord -" Kaida protested, as the attendant walked out.

Enma missed the smirk he sent Kaida's way.

At that moment, numerous Spirit Guards, all heavily armed, strode in purposefully and

arranged themselves in a horseshoe shape around Kaida.

She was trapped.

Kaida decided it was time to drop the etiquette.

She glared at Enma

"What is the meaning of this." She demanded, body tensing.

"A rather startling prophesy has been brought to my attention." Enma told her "A

rather startling prophesy, concerning you." Enma pulled a piece of paper out of his

pocket and handed it to her.

It read:

Precious golds and treasures

All Stolen from three worlds

The Queen of Thieves arises

Her plan, to ruled the worlds.

The first treasure, from the demons

A medallion made of gold

The second, from the mortals

An ancient sword of old

The final treasure, from the spirits

And the King of Hell himself

A simple golden ring is gone

Stolen from King Enma's shelf

These treasures when combined

Will yield and evil power

The Queen of Thieves will take the throne

It will be our darkest hour

Do what you will to change it

But your fate has thus been sealed

The greatest power ever known

Will be only hers to wield

The Queen of Thieves, twice betrayed

Eyes dark a blue as night

And many lives will thus be lost

Through and catastrophic fight

Kaida clutched the paper and glanced around her, quickly summing up the situation.

Enma thought her the person from the prophesy. To protect his position as ruler and to

save the worlds from destruction, Kaida would have to be either put in Jail, or executed.

And King Enma wasn't know for his mercifulness. She had to stall for time.

"Father! I must protest!" said a teen Koenma, bursting through the door.

Perfect.

"True, the prophesy undoubtedly concerns Kaida. It mentions directly the 'Queen

of Thieves' witch Kaida 'Toorima' was known as, but I highly doubt that Kaida has any

desire to destroy innocent people."

As Koenma spoke, Kaida worked her single dagger into her hand and hid it. She mentally

cursed herself for only bringing one weapon. She knew better than that!

Meanwhile, King Enma was observing his son. When he finally spoke, his voice was

cold.

"This thief is a threat as it clearly states in the prophesy. And you know very

well," he added as Koenma opened his mouth again. "That the punishment for faking or

altering a prophesy is very severe."

"but father -"

Enma raised a hand and stopped him.

"Stand aside or face charges of Obstruction of justice." Enma said coldly.

Koenma stared at him for a moment and slowly left the room, with a single apologetic

look to Kaida.

When Koenma had closed the door, Enma's guards stepped forward.

Kaida waited until they where very close before lashing out at the first few guards.

They went down but where quickly replaced.

Even with the dagger, Kaida was quickly outnumbered.

She was wrestled to the floor and cuffed.

"Take her to her cell. High security." Enma ordered as he watched the numerous

guards it took to lead her out of the room.

Kaida shot one more piercing glare at Enma before being dragged away and into her cell

in the infamous Spirit World Prison.

There was gonna be hell to pay.
