Hey, guys, guess what? I'm back with an entirely new fic. It will be a crossover like most of my fics and it will be YuYu/Inu/DBZ. The pairings will be of course Kag/Kur, and I am going to pair Gohan up with someone. Who that is I don't know yet. I have some one in mind, but it may change. Also, there will be no Videl. If you've read my other story Time After Time, you probably read that I don't like Videl. She's too much like Chi Chi and I think Gohan should have married someone better than her. Anyway, my new story is about a new enemy at which time a strange woman appears to four different people. As for who they are, you must read to find out. I promise it'll be good, give it a chance maybe ya'll like it. Anyway, if you do end up thinking its interesting, please don't forget to review. Ja ne.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu/Inu, of DBZ
Chapter 1
Face Your Destiny
Gohan was lying in bed that night after a rough day of training. It had been about 6 years after cell and Gohan had made it a point to train as hard as he could, to be prepared for any more disasters. His life for the most part had been very rough ever since his father abandoned him after cell's defeat. During the 6 months that followed his father's death Gohan hadn't trained at all, but after his mother died giving birth to his brother, Gohan had needed an outlet for his anger. First his father left and wasn't there for his mother in her time of need and then….just days after Goten's birth, his mother's body was found lying dead in her bathtub, her wrist slit and her face drained of any color. Gohan had discovered her body. She'd left no note, but…Gohan knew why she left. She just couldn't stand the fact that she would never see her husband again, so she'd done the unthinkable and left Gohan to raise Goten.
A year after that and Gohan's life had become much more peaceful. Bulma had adopted Gohan and Goten into their family, changing their official name to Briefs. At first it was a little awkward, but after awhile Gohan came to love his new family. Bulma became like a second mother to him, and Trunks had become a little brother. Gohan loved him as much as he did his brother, Goten, Even Vegeta had lightened up…and Gohan gained a new respect for the Saiyan Prince. After all, he had never once truly chose to abandon his family.
So for the past 5 years Gohan had lived at Capsule Corp with his new family, training under Vegeta, and even becoming Vice President under Bulma, because of his genius brain. Over the years he'd gained his peace with his family knowing that they would finally be happy together, but he'd never truly gotten over the fact that they had both chosen to abandon him and Goten.
Gohan sighed and turned over, his eyes drifting shut. He was about to fall into lovely sleep, before a soft, enchanting voice washed over his brain, causing him to shoot up in bed.
"Gohan, you have been chosen," the voice whispered. Gohan had trouble distinguishing whether the voice was male or female.
He looked around trying to spot the entity behind the voice. "Who are you?" Gohan whispered, trying not to wake up the Saiyan Prince down the hall.
When the voice stayed still, Gohan figured it had just been his imagination. He started to lie back again, when his room filled with a white light. Gohan had to shield his eyes, as he gasped in dismay. When the light cleared away Gohan was astonished to find that a woman was standing directly in the middle of her room. And not just any woman; the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen.
"I'm pleased you feel that way," The woman said teasingly, making Gohan blush.
"Who are you?" Gohan asked again. It never occurred to him to actually be alarmed. Her presence was actually…soothing, and pure. It almost felt like his fathers.
The woman smiled and stepped closer as Gohan finally got a good look at her. She was tall, not nearly as tall as he was, but fairly tall for a female. She stood about 5'7'' with long black hair pulled back in a braid that fell to below her waist. She was wearing old-fashioned clothes with a strange set of silver armor adorning her chest. Her elbows were covered by guards and leather strings were wrapped tightly around both her upper arms. She carried a bow and a quiver of arrows on her back, and a sword attached at her right hip.
"Are you an angel?" he couldn't help but ask, for she looked as beautiful as one.
She chuckled slightly. "No, Gohan, I am not."
"Then why are you here?" Gohan asked.
"I am here to tell you something very important is going to happen and it involves you," the woman spoke, her voice now deadly serious. "You must listen very closely."
Gohan was almost afraid to ask. "I'm listening," he assured her.
She nodded. "You and three others have been chosen to go on a quest; a quest to defeat a very powerful foe, one of which you have never seen the likes of before."
"What do you mean?" Gohan interrupted. "How and why was I chosen? Who are the others that are to accompany me?"
"You were chosen because you, Gohan, are very powerful, one of the most powerful warriors I have ever seen," The woman spoke. "You were chosen for your brain, your power, your stealth, and your heart."
"My…heart?" he asked, a little surprised.
The woman smiled before gently touching her chest with her hand. "I don't know whether you realize it Gohan, but you are entirely pure. You possess one of the most pure hearts I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing. You've defeated countless enemies by yourself and seen horrors that no one as young as you were should ever have witnessed." Gohan blushed a little at her praise. "To defeat this great enemy, you must be pure of heart, for he is pure evil, blackness and everything void. The other warriors have all been chosen especially by me because of their pureness. You will need them to aid you."
Suddenly very curious, and almost excited at getting a chance to meet new people and new challenges, Gohan leaned closer. "So, who are these other warriors? Are they anyone I know?"
"No, to my knowledge you have never met them," The woman explained. "But I assure you they all possess a great variety of power and will each bring their own area of expertise. All of you have done and seen remarkable things, Gohan, and because of that, you were chosen."
"So, when is this new evil coming?" Gohan asked, feeling a certain dread, wondering if it could be only days.
The woman suppressed a small smile. "You will not have to face him for another two year, so you have plenty of time to train. However, there is one thing you should know, should you choose to accept this?"
"You mean I have a choice?" Gohan asked, surprised.
"Of course, I would never force you into something you didn't want to," the woman said.
"What happens if I choose not to?" he asked.
"Well…I suppose another will have to be chosen," the woman said slowly thinking it over.
"Anyway, before I decide anything, what is it I should know?"
"Ah yes," the woman clapped her hands together. "The training you will go through will be most intense, and it's not to say I don't think you can do it, however this training will be quite different from anything you've ever experienced before."
"What do you mean?"
"You will be training with an entirely new concept which you've probably never thought of before. You will be trained specifically in an element."
"An-an element?" Gohan's mind whirled. She said element, so what did she mean? Was she talking about elements such as fire and wind?
"You're very smart, Gohan, that's one of the reasons you were chosen," The woman interrupted his thought processing.
"So, what you're saying is that I will be trained in some kind of elemental based power? So, what power would I be?"
The woman smiled gently. "That has yet to be decided. Anyway, I must be going. I have to visit the other chosens tonight and explain all this over again. Should you choose to accept this mission, in two nights you will meet the others at a certain shrine; it is called the Sunset Shrine. There you will meet your teammates and gain much more information."
Gohan really didn't know what to say. I mean how many times had someone come into his bedroom, and proclaimed that youwere chosen to go on a quest, while learning a new power and meeting new warriors. On the one hand, he also found pleasure in the fact that someone had come to him seeking his power and his mind, instead of his fathers. On the other hand, sure his life had been bizarre practically ever since birth, but this was going a little over the top. The woman seemed to understand his predicament and smiled softly at the young teenager, knowingthat he had alreadyexperienced more pain and hardship than anyone should have to. "Let me leave you with a warning," the woman said softly, her form beginning to dissolve. "You were chosen for a specific reason and I personally chose you out of a 1000's ofother candidates. Should you choose to accept, this will probably be the single most hardest task you'll ever have to go through. You will see things never meant for anyone's eyes and it will be very hard to overcome. Choose wisely, young one, for your life will never be the same again."
With that she was gone, without leaving a trace of the holy energy she'd possessed. Gohan looked around wondering if maybe it had all been a funny dream, but then a glint of silver caught his eye. He looked at the night stand, noticing a strange necklace with a silver medallion attached to it. His name was printed elegantly in front. Gohan picked it up and turned it over, noticing strange lettering in a language he didn't know, but somehow knew it was his name spelled there. Underneath the lettering was the kanji for chosen.
Deciding he'd had enough happen to him for one night, he decided to get some rest and then think it over for the next couple of days. After all, he had two days to decide, right? He lay back down, this time with no voices echoing in his head. His eyes were closed in minutes and he allowed himself to fall blissfully into sleep.
Okay....so? What'd ya' think? Was it any good? Can you guess who the other guardians are? And more importantly can you guess who the woman is? If you can, well you get a cookie!!!! A virtual cookie, mind you. Anyway, I think that is all I will post for one night, just to see how ya'll respond to it. So, please read and review and tell me if you like it.
