The Yin and the Yang Souls
Proluge
The lost prophecy:
One of darkness, one of light. Tainted by blood, a child of innocence. When bound by blood, when brought together. Possessors bound by the tie. To death comes one if the other has perished. United together to be mates. The unlikely pair, thought never to be seen. The hunter of the night. The slayer of the shadow.
She ran through the hallways of a hideout. Not just A hideout, THE hideout of the most notorious vampires that were to have said to exist. Accompanying her was her best friends Sango and Kikiyo. What were they doing in a vampire nest you may ask? Their duties as vampire hunters. Kagome was clad in a skintight slaying outfit that was all black with blue linings. Sango's trimmed in black and red, while Kikiyo's were downed in a deep midnight blue and turquoise green. Hanging at each of their hips were two daggers, and multiple ones hidden on the insides of theirs uniforms. On Kikiyo's back was a bow and arrow; each arrow made from witch's blade, a deadly magic towards vampires. Sango heaved a giant boomerang and Kagome: a swallow made of the strongest witch's blade. By their side was a small cat youkai of fire, tiny yet powerful.
"Kilala, watch your back!" Sango warned as they came upon a door.
"They must be right ahead. everyone prepared? Alright, let's go!" Kagome ordered and she ripped the witch's swallow off her back and sliced the door neatly in half.
Kikiyo and Sango hurried into the doorframe; weapons poised and ready to kill. They looked into a dark empty room.
"This isn't right, it's .. empty..?" Sango whispered cautiously.
They cautiously walked into the room, wary of everything happening around them. The door creaked closed as the exited the door's path. Holding their breath they slowly scanned the room. Something darted across the room as Sango uneasily took a step back only to bump into something strong and sturdy.
"Kagome, is that you?"
"No, I'm over here."
"Kikiyo?"
"No, I'm by Kagome, where are you?"
"If you're over there? Who's behind me?" Sango slowly turned only to face a young man in his supposedly late teens.
Meanwhile, Kagome stood by Kikiyo frantically looking for a source of light. Sango had disappeared and that meant something was up.
"Kagome, is that you?" She suddenly heard from Sango.
"No, I'm over here." she replied prodding around for her light.
"Kikiyo?" Sango asked, which Kikiyo shook her head to and replied, "No, I'm by Kagome, where are you?"
"If you're over there? Who's behind me?" Kagome froze in mid-search as she deciphered Sango's sentence.
"Vampires! Kikiyo you ready? Kikiyo?" Kagome suddenly found herself alone.
Kikiyo was gone. A sharp scream which she recognized as Kikiyo sounded and the swallow wielding slayer whirled around and dashed off in the direction of the scream. As she passed through the doorframe she was sharply yanked back into something… or someone. She turned to face whoever it was and saw…
Kagome screamed as she woke up from her dream, drenched in sweat.
'It was all a dream. Thank God!' she thought hugging herself tightly and shivering uncontrollably.
She heard someone running up the stair and she froze. The door burst open and her mother slid in.
"Kagome what is it? Were you attacked?" she asked questionably.
"No, I had a nightmare. Oh mama, it was horrible! We were out at this old building checking out some rumors about vampire sightings. When we entered this one dusty room, Sango and Kikiyo disappeared and I couldn't find them anywhere. Then… then…" Kagome cut off and shivered again.
Mrs. Higurashi hugged her daughter lovingly and rubbed her back soothingly. "Come on, I don't think you're going to get anymore sleep tonight."
"Did I wake you?" Kagome asked shivering a little.
"No, I've been up for a couple hours. it's only five in the morning."
Kagome snorted, "Only five? That's still too early to be normal."
They shared a laugh for a moment before stepping downstairs. Mrs. Higurashi walked into the kitchen and started to prepare the breakfast. Kagome helped a bit to keep her mind off her dream. As the clock struck six, the rest of the family started to file down the stairs. Souta came first; rubbing his eye's tiredly with Buyo, the family cat, trailing after. Soon after, Jii-san out from the bedroom down the hall muttering about pesky rouges out rambling around and destroying things.
"That's the forth one I've found on the top of the shrine stairs. Looks the rouge's got to her before she could get to the shrine. Poor thing," Jii-san said solemnly and shook his head.
"Another one, father?" Mrs. Higarashi asked as she placed eggs and bacon on the table and turned to fetch the orange juice and milk.
Souta bounded up to the table and plopped down in his seat. "It's really sad. Wish I could help out but you guys say I'm too young. When can I hunt vamps like Kagome?"
"When your next birthday rolls around. In about four months." Mrs. Higurashi pointed out and set out the milk and orange juice.
"Awwww, that's four whole months though! Can't I start today?" Souta whined.
"I'll think about it, but not today, maybe next week."
"ALRIGHT!" Souta cheered and jumped up to dance around the table happily.
"Okay now, you settle down! Breakfast is on the table, lets eat." Mrs. Higarashi ordered and everyone took their seat.
"Mama can … Sango, Kikiyo… and I go shopping… after school… today?" Kagome asked between bites.
"Just as long as your back before nightfall. okay?"
"Okay!"
Kagome put her dishes in the sink and ran up the stair to prepare for school. She slipped on her school uniform, socks, shoes, and grabbed her bag before running downstairs. She hugged her mom and jii-san quickly, ruffled Souta's hair, and finally ran out the door.
In a shadowy building a few blocks from the High School, sat a young teen. He had silver hair, golden eyes, white doggy ears, sharp fingernail claws, and right now a peaceful expression on his face as he quietly slept. He was jerked out of his slumber by the entrance of three other teens. Two boys and a girl entered the room. The first was the eldest. He too had silver hair, golden eyes but with a natural eye shadow look to them, blood red stripes gracing his face, a blue crescent moon upon his forehead, sharp fingernail claws, two red stripes right above each wrist, and a fluffy tail hanging off his shoulder. The other boy had black hair pulled into a dragon's tail, brown eyes, and a soft looking nature about him. All three were clad in boy's school uniforms. The girl had a midback long blue streaked black hair, black kitten ears, ice blue eyes, a blue crescent moon upon her forehead, sharp fingernail claws, and a black tipped white wolfish tail. She was dressed in the boy's uniform due to the fact of her hate for skirts.
"InuYasha, wake up. We must go to this school. It may help us find the other side of this amulet I have," the elder boy commanded as he held up a part of a Yin Yang necklace. It was blood red with a black spiked trim.
"Why do I have to tag along? What's in it for me Sesshomaru?" InuYasha asked boredly.
"You want to know how to master that stupid sword do you not, little brother?" Sesshomaru dully replied.
"Lighten up nii-san! You sound so boring when you speak like that," the girl said as she smiled happily.
"Zephyr, settle down now. Don't get too excited." a mysterious voice interrupted.
"Kouga! When did you get here?" Krystali asked attacking him in a furious hug.
"I got back late last night." he shrugged.
Kouga was also dressed in school uniform. He had silky brown hair, which tied back in a ponytail, piercing blue eyes, and sharp fingernail claws. Couldn't forget his cocky disposition either. Kouga wrapped his arm around Krystali and they walked up to the other three.
"You shouldn't spoil her Kouga, she'll get even more difficult than she already is," InuYasha snapped jumping down from the rafters.
"Aww, don't worry bout this little girl. She's just a little baby girl." Kouga replied and picked her up and swung her around.
"Kouga! I'm not little! I'm 15 youkai years old! That's 45 to a human!" Krystali complained and struggled to get free from the okami youkai and vampire mix's grasp.
"Zephyr, sorry to ruin your happy moment but… that's young, girl." Kouga informed and pulled her into a tight hug.
"It's all because of those damn chokers. If only we could remove them." InuYasha pondered, reaching up towards the golden bangles. Zephyr snarled and snapped at his hand warningly.
"And let loose her demonic self on the public, I don't think so. The society isn't ready for a rampaging neko-jin on the loose. They can barely keep up with our activity!" Kouga laughed, light glinting off of a bloody fang.
Zephyr took the opportunity to get loose and climbed up the rafter. "I thought you smelled like blood. You had to got feed last night didn't you?" she complained and made a face at Kouga.
"Can't help it sweetie, it's part of who we are." Kouga informed.
"Glad I'm not a vamp, that's just nasty what you guys do. And I'm glad my blood's poison to vamps. Heh heh heh." Zephyr chuckled sarcastically.
"Well, you'd better be thankful, or I wouldn't have brought you back here to your brothers when I found you! I would of left you their on the ground, practically dead. A demon's blood is mighty tasty!" Kouga argued back.
"Touchy touchy!" Zephyr snapped.
"Whatever." Kouga muttered.
"If you are finished bickering, we're going to be late." Sesshomaru pointed out and walked out the door leaving Kouga and Zephyr fighting.
"Yikes, he's right! See ya later!" Zephyr bounded out the door and down the sidewalk after Sesshomaru. Kouga and InuYasha glanced briefly at each other before charging after them.
Zephyr Notes: Well, I'm going through my stories and revising them chapter by chapter. So I'm starting with the Yin and the Yang Souls. There will be new bits and pieces changed, such as names and stuff. Krystalli is now Zephyr. X3 Duh, because that is my chari and I don't like the name Krystalli. It's too weird for me. Hope you guys still like it. The new chapter is still being worked on. Hope you can wait. It won't be out for a bit. Today is New Years Eve and I'm staying at a friends. Then school starts back up and I HAVE to get good grades. I bombed Chemical Biology II and I hate that class. Plus I have Drivers Ed this semester so I want to be able to drive. Well, ja matte ne minna-san.
