Chapter 4 Shrouds of Mystery

Yogosu was walking out side when the rain started. She only paused to look up at the sky for a moment and then continued to walk. The rain made it much colder but right now, she didn't care. People on the side walks walked right by her with out giving her a second look. Eager to get back to their dry homes. Not like a few months ago. Soon she found her self by a certain grave yard. 'Might as well visit since I'm hear.' she thought. She entered the cemetery and wandered until she found who she was looking for.

"Mom, Sis," She said sadly. She looked at the third grave, which was to the left of her mothers.

"I wish you where my father." tears began to fill her eyes as nightmares of that dreadful day came flooding back to her,

(Flashback)

"Great dinner Mom."

"Yea Mom you really out did yourself.:

"So glad you enjoyed it. Well, what should we do now?"

"How about we rent a movie?"

"That sounds like fun. Ok lets …"

Crash! Her mother was cut off by the sound fallowed by a pack of demons breaking in.

"No! Quickly to eh weapons!"

"Mom, we're cut off!"

"No!"

(End flashback)

"You'll catch cold out hear. Especially dressed like that with no rain coat."

The voice surprised her, and the rain stopped falling on her. She turned around to see who was behind her. She saw a fairly tall man, with brown eyes and brown hair standing behind her, holding his umbrella so it was keeping the rain off of both of them. He was wearing a black winter coat and blue jeans. Seeing who it was, she only went back to her sad complexion and returned her attention to the graves before her.

"What are you doing hear?" she asked.

"Hay she was my Mom to. Just as you're my little sister."

"Half sister. And you could get in to big trouble if they find out we've been talking."

"No one ever said I couldn't visit Mom hear. Bumping in to you was just luck."

"True, but you chose the family. Mom chouse banishment. For my life. Sis to."

"Cassandra was always a big softy. I miss her."

"Cory, why are you hear?" she turned around now to look at him.

"Look, it's been eighteen years since you where born, and the day Mom made her chouse to raise you. You little half demon. I wanted to see how you where doing over the past three month since their deaths."

"You could get in big trouble for that. And don't call me Half demon like that! You make it sound cute."

Cory only smiled.

"Mom did well finding away to hid all your demon fetchers. You actually look human. May I assume it's the prayer beads?"

"You may, look, you shouldn't be hear."

"Listen, like I told Mom that day, just because we are taking different roads, doesn't mean we aren't family any more."

(Flashback)

It's dark, a babies crying can be heard, along with the voices of about three old women and the intermediate family of the new born child.

"Well, what is it?"

"It's a girl, and a half demon."

"So it's not the last child of my son."

"No, I'm afraid it's not."

"Please, let me hold her, my child, Please."

"Very well." agents her better judgment, the old women hands the crying child to her mother. Who instantly quiets down on e safe in her mothers arms.

"Her name shall be Yogosu." the old woman said.

"You know the family law, our blood line can not be tainted by Demon blood. You must make a chouse, the family tradition, or the child's life. I'm sorry but that is how it must be."

The mother held the child close to her.

"Must I chose? With the proper training she could become the most powerful…"

"The family law can not be broken. I'm sorry but I can not have it so. You must chose. She wasn't even conserved willingly. She was forced on you."

"I know…." The mother paused, and looked that the child in her arms, so innocent, and helpless. "But… I can not let he be killed. I, I chose her."

"Very well." The old women turned to the elder children.

"Now you can chose to stay with us, or, your mother."

"I can not leave Mother alone. I chose her."

"Cassandra, child of sixteen years, has made her chose. Cory?"

"I, I need time to think about this.."

"Very well."

Later that night….

"Mom?"

"Yes Cory?"

"I, I have decided to stay with the family. I will hold fathers legacy. I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry my son." She placed a comporting hand on his shoulder, and smiled. "You are nineteen and an adult now. You would have gone out on your own soon anyway. I'm going to miss you so much." She then began to cry.

"Mom, listen to me, You, Cassandra, and Yogosu hear, may be getting banished from the family, but, that Doesn't mean that I'm not Your son any more. Just because we are taking different roads, doesn't mean we aren't family any more. I love you, don't ever forget that."

(End flashback)

" I meant those words then, and I mean them now. Like it or not, I AM your bother, and you are my sister." Yogosu closed her eyes and smiled.

"That's true. Mom said you always had a way of bringing a smile to ones face." she opened her eyes, 'but still, if the family counsel finds out that you have been speaking to me, it could mean big trouble for you."

"Yea well, my chouse right? Besides, a cemetery really isn't the place you want to spend your birthday is it?"

She looked at him in surprise.

"What? Did you think I could for get? Come on, take me to your home. No one should have to spend their birthday alone." Cory held out his hand. Yogosu smiled and walked right by him.

"This way." she said.

"Ok, besides that, your all wet."

She playfully punched him in the shoulder.
