Standard disclaimer applies.
"Hmm, should I cook the chicken or the beef? Boil it or fry it? What if I add some of those imported ingredients I picked up in the supermarket?" Yuuhi thought to himself, mentally picturing out the resulting dish. They were riding on the car on their way home, when Suzume suddenly halted it, catching him in surprise. "Yuuhi! I'm sensing some serious energy nearby. It might be another tennyo. I want you to go and check." Suzume ordered.
"Hai…hai…" Yuuhi mentally thought, as he walked fast to the site. He wondered what he would find. Sometimes the people with the tennyo gene were ordinary people or so they believe, and sometimes they would be totally disbelieving and would try to run. Sometimes they were people who have some psychic powers and would probably even seem remotely interested. There were others though who were vindictive enough to try and use their powers for revenge, manipulation and some other selfish reason. He wondered what he would be seeing now.
He turned around a corner, his breath caught in his throat. One thing for sure was, all those who had the tennyo gene were pretty, but when they get possessed by it, they become breathtakingly beautiful.
And this was a prime example.
With long flowing black hair and indigo eyes, she smiled at him as though he was the one she was waiting for.
"I've been waiting for you, Yuuhi Aogiri." She spoke. It was as if she had read his mind.
"Are you a tennyo?" He asked cautiously. After the initial shock of her beauty, he slightly got over it, having been in contact with tennyos on a regular basis.
"A tennyo? What is that? Is that what they call beings with magical power?" She asked curiously.
"Um…well, a tennyo is--, uh a tennyo is…" Yuuhi scratched his head and took her hand. She didn't seem to fall under the vengeful, scary tennyos who wanted revenge. She seemed okay, and very conscious of herself. "I'll take you to see, Suzume-chan. She can explain about the tennyo thing better than me." He said. But as he pulled, she didn't budge. He turned to look at her, she was glowing brighter.
"It doesn't matter." She explained softly to him. "Because you're coming with me." And with one tug, he was pulled into the tunnel.
"Tohru you can close the door. Yuki can open it on his own when he comes home." Shigure said kindly. Though he too was also wondering why Yuki was so late, the open door made him cold.
"Who knows? Maybe it's my lucky day and he got washed down the river or something." Kyo said callously, shrugging.
"Kyo-chan that's really mean." Tohru exclaimed a bit mad…and for Tohru to be mad means really, really mad for some people. "Something bad might've happened to him." Tohru expressed looking out the window longingly.
Shigure then stood up and walked to the door. "Come on Kyo, let's get going." He said, giving Tohru a wink.
Tohru's whole face brightened and she looked at Kyo. With her staring at him like that, he made an annoyed grumbling sound before standing up, grabbed his jacket, and walked out ahead.
"Why do I have to come along?" Kyo continued to mutter as they backtracked Yuki's supposed path in coming home.
"Didn't you see Tohru's face? You don't want her to be mad at you, do you?" Shigure asked lightly. "Or do you like seeing her sad?"
"…no. tche…" Kyo grumbled, but kept relatively quiet during the search. "So do you smell him anywhere?"
"Wait…I think I smell his scent faintly."
Not wanting to rely solely on the dog, Kyo tried to search for Yuki too using his own senses…and those senses picked up some weird strong vibes. "It could be Yuki." He thought, starting to run towards the direction. The sooner they could find him, the sooner he could go home and see Tohru's regular happy face once more.
"KYO! Where are you going?" Shigure said, moving to catch up.
Kyo continued to rely on his senses, his intent one-aimed that he didn't even consider waiting for Shigure to catch up.
He was near…he was sure of it… just behind that bush…
All he saw was a feather…glowing. He kicked the bush in annoyance and picked up the feather.
When Shigure finally managed to track where Kyo's scent stopped, there was no one there. "Now, how is he ever going to explain this to Tohru." Shigure thought sighing. "Should he report this to the main house?" He thought walking home dejectedly.
Mito looked affectionately at the boy she has considered her own son. He was beginning to grow up to become a strong, fair young man, whose heart seemed untouched by the world's corrupt exterior. His goodness was able to touch all souls both man and beast and influence them to the better. The proof was there in Mito's eyes, as his gaze included that of the young Zoldik, a used-to-be assassin, now a hunter who is also Gon's best friend.
"Aunt Mito, we'll be going now." Gon waved, as he headed out the door. Killua also gave a polite smile as he followed his friend.
"Bye! Take care!" Mito called out. They had become so strong, now she didn't have to worry too much.
"Gon, what's wrong?" Killua asked, as his friend looked les cheery than normal.
"Huh. Oh nothing." Gon grinned, looking up at the sky. "I guess I was a bit disappointed on how the Greed game turned out." He admitted.
Killua nodded agreeably. "Your father sure is slippery. It makes me want to catch find him even more!"
Gon looked at him with grateful eyes looking as though he was about to cry. "Thank you Killa! You're my best friend in the whole world!"
"Aww…" Killua hid his blush looking away, and then he smiled too. "Of course, cause you're my best friend too." They both grinned, and then laughed at some inside joke.
"So what do you want to do Killua?" Gon asked embarrassed, realizing the lack of recreational resources around compared to Killua's huge house in the mountains. Killua doesn't seem to notice it however and pondered the question.
"Treasure Hunting!"
"Here in the lake? I doubt we'd find anything interesting under there…I've been swimming there my whole life." Gon said doubtfully.
"We're Hunters. I bet we could find something interesting." Killua challenged. "The one who finds the most interesting thing wins." Killua declared, as he jumped in before Gon could say anything.
"You're on." Gon said, jumping after him.
"Hmm… it was deeper than what he had remembered." Gon thought, looking around.
Still as he had predicted, there were nothing to be found in the lake. Nothing but some garbage, aside from the fished and… wait, what was that? Gon swam closer to some 'thing' that glowed catching his eye.
It was a feather! But it was so pretty that it must've belonged to some exotic, nearly extinct or already extinct beast. He sure was lucky… He grabbed the feather and began swimming up to the surface.
"I know Killua hates losing, but so do I." Gon thought with a grin. The swim to the surface seemed longer however, as though no he could never reach it. Before he knew it he found himself in a tunnel.
He saw a familiar person ahead of him. "Killua, you're here too?" Gon said excitedly. Killua turned around and Gon saw Killua holding a feather, the exact same one he had found. Had he lost his? But looking down in his hands, the feather was still there.
"Gon." Killua said in surprise. "Where are we? You found a feather too?" Killua pointed out.
"Yea…" Gon nodded. "Let's go!" He marched, figuring this out as another adventure.
"Wait, you don't know where we're going." Killua warned, but followed him anyway.
Roy sighed as he stared at the window. It was raining again. "Paperwork…paperwork… his life was defined by paperwork…" He grumbled.
"Sir—" His first lieutenant stepped in carrying another pile of paperwork. She was so formal and all business that Roy wanted to reach out, grab her and kiss her.
"Colonel…colonel…. Roy!" She repeated, finally saying his name to grab his attention -- which it did, snapping his attention back to the living. "Are you okay?" She asked concerned.
Roy shook his head. He must be crazy… he shouldn't think things like those. He'd be demoted, not to mention, Riza would probably kill him, for touching her in an inappropriate way, and for being demoted.
"Ah, it must be the rain." She said with a glimmer of humor as she patted his hand.
"Yea…it must be." He muttered as she turned away to leave. Then he noticed something shining on the floor and picked it up. "Wait, you dropped—"
He disappeared.
When they all reached the end of the tunnel, they found themselves in the middle of a crowd, all men…all wearing strange clothes, in their different perceptions and ideas on what was 'normal'. Those who were guided by the senshis were suddenly left alone.
"This was so weird." Yuuhi thought as he looked around. "Everyone was dressed up weird…maybe he was having a weird dream? Kinda one of those, a dream within a dream?"
He turned and finally found one person wearing 'normal' clothes like his, standing near him.
"Hey! Hey!" He made his way through, excusing himself.
The boy looked at him in surprise. "Oh hello." He said politely, and cautiously.
"You're not from around him are you?" Yuuhi asked, hoping.
The boy shook his head, and asked back, warily. "Are you?"
"No. I was brought here by some woman…she didn't say anything though…so I'm a little clueless here. I thought I was dreaming." Yuuhi admitted.
They boy's eyes widened, "me too," he said with a relieved smile. Instant kinship was formed. "I'm Yuki Sohma."
"Yuuhi Aogiri."
Yuuhi grinned. "I just got here, so any idea what's going on? Why
all men?" Yuuhi slightly complained. "where was the goddess
who led him here?" He thought to himself.
Yuki though was inwardly was relieved that it was all men. Then he wouldn't be caught in a precarious position of being a rat in this strange world.
"It seems that we are going to be tested of our strength soon…to attain some sort of prize." Yuki explained frowning. "I can't understand everything though."
"Uh, I guess you were right about the test of strength..." Yuuhi said pointing at weird, nasty looking creatures approaching them.
"youmas…youmas…"
They heard the men around them murmur. They raised their weapons.
"I guess we have to join the fight too." Yuki said sighing.
"Uh huh." Yuuhi agreed. "As visitors, they're not going to give us any special treatment.
It has begun. Those from another world, dimension, time and place fought without knowing why for self-preservation. While in a room on the castle's tower, they were being watched.
