Chapter 18 Evil arises
IN the darkness of the Deepest Makia there met two evils characters, may I introduce you to them on stood very tall but very lanky his fingers seemed long and like those of claws, horns on his head, his eyes showed a gray color but the pupils seemed to go everywhere not settling on one thing. This man was blind, but as you looked closer could tell that he had taken this unusual ability and put it to good use. He seemed to know exactly where you were, even though he was blind. His name was Yomi.
The other companion was just as creepy, yet an almost handsome look to him. He was tall with dark hair that flowed past his shoulders to his mid back. He was slender and if he didn't have the evilness about his you would think him a gentleman. But this is not so. He wore a mask covering half his face; he had a deadly feel to him. This, I'm sure you have figured out, is Karasu.
The two seemed to be acting as allies for now.
"So what is this information that you have procured for us to confer together for?" Karasu commented
Sitting down letting his lanky legs rest on the footstool nearby.
"I do believe that I have found an object worth stealing and keeping for ourselves. Do you remember that curse on demons for going into the human world and everything? " Yomi said settling down into his seat.
"Yes, the stupid curse that does not allow us to enter the human world and kill as we please what of it?" Karasu said not looking interested.
"I have found out that the Priestess of the Crystal Time lives there and has allowed two demons to enter the human world and live there. I found two people who are possible to be this keeper. " Yomi said smiling.
"How is…How did you find this out?" Karasu said very interested.
"Let me show you." Yomi went over to the basin of stone in the middle of the room and chanted words that gave Karasu the shivers. Yomi motioned for Karasu to come on over. Moving so that Karasu could see and yet it seemed that Yomi could see it also.
(Author note: sometimes I wonder if Yomi is not actually blind but he uses that excuse to get people off his guard, I could be right you know and Yomi is just play acting and has gotten really good at looking blind. Cause how could you become that good at going around things if you are blind? Hm?)
Yomi showed Karasu the water there just like a mirror it began then swirled and started to made a little tsunami in the bowl and soon the water began to take a shape. The shape became shapes and then like an almost living image and images, it showed a hilltop and a large willow tree, there beneath the tree sat two ladies, one with dark colored hair and the other with hair like the sun.
As you looked closer the definitions of their faces and features became more visible. These two were very close friends; one of them was more plump then the other by a LOT.
"The dark haired one is with-child. And the other one is a close friend." Yomi said stating exactly what Karasu saw. "One of these girls is the Priestess, I think it is the one with-child. If that is so then as soon as the child is born the responsibility of the Crystal will be passed to the child no matter what the age. I say we should wait till the child is born and then steal both of the golden haired one and the child. Then we can figure out which one it is then…"He trailed off as Karasu interrupted rudely.
"YOMI, HOW in blazes are we going to get into human world in the first place?" Karasu said with great frustration.
"Karasu calm down. Don't you remember, once the priestess lets some demons through the barrier she must close it up, and it is not closed up all the way. It is just enough that we could fit through with only minimum damage." Yomi said smiled walking around Karasu and pouring two cups of dark red wine.
Karasu picked up his cup and the two clinked their cups together. Plans beginning to be planned.
"Good morning Light, wake up sleepyhead." She heard a voice say near her ear. She ignored it and snuggled closer into the white pillow that felt so warm.
"Hey Little Light that's me you're snuggling." She looked blearily up at the face inches from her own.
Youko smiled, "So you are awake, it seems that I came to think you only did that in your sleep but low and behold I have been proved wrong."
Light smiled and stood up and then went sitting up. Looking at the clock smiled it was 7 o'clock on Saturday and she was sleeping in till noon. "Yes, I think I will sleep in today." She thought to herself.
Looking out the window smiled it would snow soon she was sure of it. It just had that feeling in the air that brought the cold snow.
As she was lying back into Youko's warm embrace the phone rang.
She reached over and answered the phone she heard the frantic voice on the other end of the line.
It was Kurone.
"Hurry get over here I don't know what to do, she's breathing too hard and oooh Bleep I don't know what to do. Light what do I do what do I do!" His frantic voice said as Light was already grabbing her clothes and dashing for the bathroom.
"Number one Kurone calm down will you. It won't kill Dark to do a little bit of hard breathing and sweating while we are coming there okay? I will be there in 10 min. Don't move her yet, get blankets and get your car ready with blankets in the back okay! All right bye." she hung up before Kurone could say anything more.
In her head it was reeling like a wheel out of control, her best friend was in labor, 6 days early! Dark had been pregnant for almost 9 months. She had become with child a year after the couple had gotten married and Youko had finally regained his mortal and Youko forms. She had slowly become more and more plump and pear-shaped. She had disliked the size that she was but knew that it was unavoidable without not having children. So Dark had dealt with it.
Youko sensing the emergency had gotten changed also had grabbed her motorcycle keys and the helmets.
"Where to Light?" Still confused as to who had called (he still didn't understand the concept of the phone)
"Dark's, she's going into labor early, we have to get her to the hospital." She said with a calm that was the exact opposite that was raging in her head. Youko's eyes got huge and he took off to get the cycle out of the garage.
By the time she was ready min. later Youko had the engine revving and was ready to take off. She jumped onto the bike and they took off. One thing Youko loved in this human world was the motorcycle; he could manage it better than anyone because of his extremely long legs. They were weaving in and out of the traffic. Before they knew it they were at the front of Dark's house.
Kurone came running out and frantically waving his arms.
"Hurry Hurry, it's getting worse."
Light rushed inside. Her friend was lying on her back in the front room sweating up the storm and shaking.
Youko go and help Kurone lift her into the back of the car. I'll go and get the pillows for support. Well…HURRY!" She said running up the stairs. When she came downstairs they had gotten her into the car and were just getting in. Youko into the driver's seat and Kurone right beside him. Light crawled into the back with Dark and began to comfort her as best she could with only one college year in medical school.
Youko went quickly out of the driveway and onto the street road, there he expertly wove between traffic and in a short time (which seemed like an eternity) they finally saw the hospital. They drove up to the emergency entrance and Kurone went running in to get some help.
Within min. she was with a regular baby doctor who was helping her.
An hour later Kurone was pushed into the room and handed a little bundle of squirming body. Looking down was a dark hair purple eyed little girl who was using her vocals to her fullest extent. He was shocked, he was a father and this was his daughter.
Dark spoke from the bed, "Kurone, she is your daughter, what do you want to name her?"
"I don't know…Maybe we should ask Light, you know how good she is with words and names."Kurone turned to call for a nurse to get Light when he met Light and she was shaking her head.
"No Kurone, this is your child not mine. Thus you must name your own child by your own thoughts. She is your child to love and cherish and watch grow as your own. If she was mine then I would name her but she is not so, Kurone what will you name her?" Light asked sitting beside her friend.
"Then I will name her Raven, after the beautiful black bird for which I love. From a Bat and a Dark maiden that is a perfect name." Kurone said smiling.
Youko smiled and gently patted his friend on the back. "Well, when will you be becoming an old geezer?"
Kurone swatted at him having handed the child to Light. The ladies laughed at the playful exchange of the two all were oblivious to the two sets of eyes watching them through a living mirror. Their plans to be set into motion.
