Chapter One

Samantha Manson quietly walked down a block.The block jad a huge buliding formed out of a house whose lable read 'Fenton Works'. She was going to that house to meet her friends Danny and Tucker. She looked backwards. She thought she'd heard footsteps. There was not a soul to be found. Upon looking back she noticed a new store called "Your Inner Demon." She looked at Danny's house, and then she looked at the store. She decided to venture to the new store. She was early for Danny's house anyways. She'd only be there for a few minutes...

She gave a nervous smile as she entered the store, it's name reminded her of so much of her nightmare, irony was a pain sometimes right? Sighing she checked out the store exaiming the swords, potions, arrows it was so… mythical and... familiar? It was too disturbing; the relevencey that impacted her.

"Hey!" She swung around to meet a raven-haired teen. The teen circled around Sam cautiously before smiling at her. "Welcome to 'Your Inner Demon', Can I help you?"

"Um... just looking around so uh...what this stuff based on?" Sam looked around for any other worker of sort.

"Ancient relics of Fudel Japan... over 500 years ago" The teen started to almost lecture Sam while touching old sheets of rice paper with forgien writtings in some glowing ink. "This place has many, many old things: Wards to hold off demons, Staffs, Legendary Swords, Mystic Arrows any wepon you can think of; but it doesn't attract many people so…" The teenager led off the sentence by pressing a green button on the side of the counter. Shutting her eyes Sam clamped her hands on her head while the walls began to shake and as soon as they started it ended. "You can open your eyes now..." The store had changed completely. No longer had the walls held rusty, 'powerful' swords but racks and shelves of shirts, jackets, dresses. On the counter instead of 'Good luck charms' there were rings for the ear, nose, stomach and tongue. Staring in astonishment she stuttered.

"W-wow! It- How'd you? That button must've cost a forut- wow! This is... uh dar!" Sam clocked her self softly. "Where's my manners! The name is Saman- Sam, Sam Manson… uh I don't mean to be rude but do you go to school? I mean you look no younger then me! Speaking of school" She looked towards the clock by the door that chimed eight. "I'm late! I had to meet up with Danny!" Sam glanced at the person besides her as she gave a smile not knowing who Danny is. "He's one of my friends." The young woman nodded her head while mouthing 'oh'.

"Yeah, to make more money we have a sorta goth-punk rock like store. Un-uh it cost quite a pickle. Also: The names Kanagashi, yes I do I just transfered to Casper High, I'm 15 an' a-quarter, And you MUST chill that clock is 15 minutes fast." Kanagashi smiled and pointed towards her book bag.

"Thanks Kara- Kag...Kanaguru... you know what I'ms just called you Kana okay?" Kanagashi smiled humorously nodding. Just as Sam was about to leave she paused. "Hey Kana... do you wanna walk with my friends and I to school? It must be difficult to start in a new school."

"Um... can I bring my sister?" It was Sams turn to nod. "great, MORON come over here! We're gonna be late!" All of a sudden a dark blue-haired teen popped outta nowhere.

"Yea Grangran?" Kanagashi swiftly banged her fist against the girls head. The girl tried to soothe the bump on her head. "O-ow…That hurt…"

"I'm only 7 minutes older! And I'm surprised it hurt seeing as how there's nothing in there." Kagome growled "Sam, Shizuru; Shizuru, Sam"

Shizuru quickly grabbed Sam's and Kagome's arm and left the left the now-locked shop. "Now lets get going to Danny's house!" The two other girls looked at her dryly. "Ah! You two aren't thinking I evesdropped are you? Well too bad I did." Looking around she turned her face to her new friend."Uh…. Sam?"

"Yeah Shizuru?"

"Um… Where's Danny's house at?" Falling anime-like Sam jumped up and pointed across the street.

"Over there… where those two boys are at… the ones that keep screaming 'Sam! Sam! Are you death women? TURN AROUND!' see?"

"Oh… I knew that I was just...Testing you that's it!"

Sam went across the street muttering 'sure you did…' "Hey guys, what's up?" Both Danny and Tucker froze when they saw the two behind her.

"Hiya Danny n' Tucker! My names Kanagashi! How ya doing?"

"Uh we're fine I guess? Sam can…we… talk….to…you. ALONE?" Danny looked at the girl behind Sam, catching her staring indifferently at him. She glared coldy before quickly hidding behind Sam.

"Uh, she's very cautious with strangers. Danny this is my little sister Shizuru" She grab her younger sisters shoulders and placed her beside Sam, who looked strangly at her. 'If I recall she was just fine with me...'

"Hello Daniel." The girl looked the left by the street as if she was annoyed by his pressance.

"Hey, Shizuru…uh I um…we should be heading to school, see ya Kanagashi, Shizuru"

"Oh Danny their coming with us… they go to Casper too.." Both Danny and Tucker paled at this.

"Sam? Can me and Tuck talk to you for a sec? 'Scuse us girls" Danny pulled both way behind of the two confused young teens. "Sam this isn't safe… we don't know if we can trust them yet, they might find out about you-know-what! If they do find out we're not sure what they'll do! Even if they do keep it a secret, most likely they'll probably be used against us like bait... can they even protect themselves! We can't risk it Sam, we just can't..."

Sam pinched the bridge of her nose in annocance. "Danny your blowling this WAY out of proportsions. We are just walking to school with them, we aren't asking them to join Team Phantom. Even if we did, I'm sure that they know how to fe-"

"Against you-know-whats?! Come on they can't REALLY defend theirselves against those things!" Tucker nodded in agreement.

"Well Daniel we'll reach that bridge when we get there."

"What are you talking bout?" Kanagashi popped in between the two fighting.

"Yeah what'sa 'you-know-what'?" Shizuru asked them right next to her sister.

"Eh it's nothing..." Danny stuck his hands in the air tring to assure them. They gave him the 'you're-offending-us-if-you-think-we-will-seriously-fall-for-that-so-for-you're-own-saftey-better-tell-us' look. Sam swore that just just for a second, she saw Danny's knees shake.
