Ok. To start off, first I would like to thank everyone who has shown me support for my story. by support I mean telling me whats right and whats wrong. Please. bear with me in my time of need. Its not that I have writers block or anything, its just that my life is a little hectic right now and even though there is an order to the chaos, its just a little hard to find under all the... um... chaos. Im working some things out though so I hope it will get better! (I need Hikari here to influence me heh heh)
Anyways, I was lying in bed when I got the urge to write something short, so heres a little seperate story for you to enjoy.
FIRST PERSONALITY
"He is such a pain!" fumed Yuika as she rant and raved on her way to school. "Who did that boy think he was! He... he... kissed me! My first kiss! ARGH!"
WHAP
Yuika grabbed her hand and didnt know wether to laugh or to cry, the pain was awful. "Yui-chan! Whats wrong! Did you get hurt!" Yuika moaned as she saw the boy running down the street. Its not as if she had meant to summon a demon! Much less a perverted one! Even if he is kinda nice... she thought to herself but quickly shook such thoughts from her head. After all, the jerk had only been following her around for a week now! She couldnt seem to send him back! She would though, if it was the last thing she did!
The demon boy leaned down and took her hand to look at it. She glared at him and he sighed. "Im not gunna eat it or anything. Im just making sure its not sprained." He stole a glance at her and looked away. "You know, if you dont want me here, just send me back..."
A look of pain crossed his face and she felt guilt overtake her. "Its not that. Its just that your presence shocked me. I thought they would be sending me an angel..." It didnt help. He looked more pained. "So I guess you dont want me then..." She sighed. "No. Thats not it at all..." "So you do!" His face lit up with such joy that she couldnt help but smile at him. "Yes, of course I do."
Suddenly he grinned. "Then I guess you would mind me doing this then!" With that said, he gave her a but wet lick on the cheeck and took off running. She cringed and screamed, "Ewwwww! Demon, Ill get you for that!" she yelled as she got up and chased him, smacking him with her bookbag. "Ouch! You know, maybe I wouldnt do that if you called me by my name!" "Hmph. I cant do that and you very well know it! That would mean that I would be taking responsibility for you and that would make it impossible to send you back. I was promised an angel, not some sick perverted demon! no matter how cute and I intend to get one, so dont get use to it here."
"Awww!" he made a puppy dog face at her and was suddenly gone. "You cant get rid of me that easily! By the way, how did you hurt your hand?"
She gritted her teeth. "Because you made me so mad that I punched a wall!" All she could hear was that annoying laugh, echoing off into the distance.
School didnt seem to give her a break either. One of her friends must have saw her with the demon because they all assaulted her as soon as she walked in. "Who was that cute guy with you! How did you meet him! Are you dating!" Soon she just tuned them out, smiling and such when nessecary. This stuff didnt really worry her much. She had greater duties than to worry about boyfriends. Besides, Tamers usually fell in love with their Summonings so at the moment the only thing she was worried about was returning the faulty Summon!
Yuika was a Summoner, a Tamer, call it what you like. The only reason she was even one was because some random entity, wether a Summon or something higher, suddenly picked her out of the blue to fight like this. After they had you picked they gave you separate personalities to help you deal with it better. Once both personalities had accepted their role then they would merge and the Tamer would then become stronger, having the magic of both personalities merged as well. It was all she could do to defend herself while she tried to bring about a Summon and still control herself. Every day the Tengu attacks got worse. It was now, or never. She only wished they had given her the angel she was promised and not this perverted demon. She screamed on the inside. It was all so frustrating! She needed some air. "Teacher, may I use the restroom?" Her teacher nodded, not paying much attention. When it came to Tamers, not many people cared about the things they did. They only had one purpose. She was probably the only one of her kind who had decided to take up an education. It never mattered to anyone that the Tamers couldnt barely do basic math. After all, they were only created to fight.
She ignored the wave of disappointed that washed over her. and walked outside, breathing in the cool, clean air. It bit at her throat and stung her eyes.
Wait a minute...
As far as she knew, it couldnt be this cold today. That must mean that it was the Tengu's again. She growled in frustration and drew a figure in the air with her hands. It multiplied and spread out, and when she opened her shut eyes, she could see herself in the land of the Tengu. It was like another demension. There were four in all, and they all coexisted. All of them were in the same place as the other, only on a seperate plane. The different planes, the three most commonly known as Heaven, Earth and Hell. Angels, Humans and Demons. The humans are in the middle of the angels and the demons, kind of like a sandwich made up of nothing but magical properties. Most of the ones with the magical abilities are the demons and angels, but every once in a while, you come across a gifted human, one able to summon these creatures for battle. It had caused many wars until it was finally figured out, but even now the line between war and peace is drawn very thin.
Anyways, back to the story. It wasnt until recently that another demonsion was found. The land of the Tengu, or better known as Limbo. For some reason, this dimension was different than the rest. While its true that the others were packed in closely together and coexisted, they never actually overlapped. This one did, and it was with Earth, the most influencial of the planets. Because of this, they have control over us for the simple reason that they have the more magic. They've also been sapping our planets life source. For every thing it takes from us to add to its desolate land, ours die a little more. Thus the battles. For the last 100 years, random people have been chosen to take up this battle.
SECOND PERSONALITY
I am one of them.
As I find myself now in control of our body I find myself in Limbo. I look around the area, and all I can see is desert. I can feel the Demons presence close to me and it gives me comfort. Unlike my former self, I have no qualms about who is given to me, as long as he is strong. I can tell that this one will suit me very well. As I look around Im on the alert. Im waiting for the Tengu to make its first move and Im not kept waiting long. I can just barely get out of the way. It would seem that my other self wishes to be in control. I fight her and the Tengu moves again. I get hit in the arm and I can feel its poison spreading in me. Tengu are the only beings whose magic can be called a poison. Even if your magic is strictly physical or ephemereal. This makes the Tengu a highly dangerous and infectious breed. Damn the girl for fighting me now. I cant handle them both, alone.
I can feel my arm go numb and I can only be thankful that it was my left. I quickly draw a runic symbol in the air and smile as the Tengu is revealed to me. I send an arrow of power his way and hit him in the leg. I got lucky. Normally, it would take me one hit to kill of a single Tengu but thats with both my arms useable. Tengu's may be powerful but they are slow and stupid, much like a harpy. This is bad. This poison must be stronger than I though, for I can feel my body stop responding. I can see now that the one I hit was a decoy and the real one was out there somewhere, snickering at me. I couldnt cope, and so I gave the girl her control back. This is her fault so let her deal with it.
FIRST PERSONALITY
Say it
-No...-
Say my name, set me free!
-I wont-
SAY IT
AKULLA! she screamed in her mind, no longer able to move.
It was enough, and the demon was now hers, to do with as she will. She could hear his cruel laughter and the Tengu's shrieks as he ripped him apart. No matter how kind a demon is, or how much you think you can change them, this is their element. Killing is what they are good at. Its what they enjoy. That is why they are the most chosen ones for battle. Angels are to peaceful. Thats why she had refused this gift. Thats why she had fooled herself into believing she was worthy of an angel. But as her demon Akulla leaned over her to pick her up and take her home, suddenly, looking into his eyes, she couldnt find any grief or disappointment in either herself or him. Yes, he was cruel. That was part of who he was, but it was also part of her. She would go to school and make something of herself. But when she wasnt doing that, when she wasnt living for herself, she would live for him and for her destiny.
-Or maybe I'll just kill the bastard!- She thought as he took the advantage of her innability to move to kiss her one more time. Inside, she smiled and she could feel herself slowly merging and becoming stronger. It would take time but for now, this little understanding between them would be enough.
A/n: I know. Short. But this time, its suppose to be. I might add more to this one later, if I get any reviews for it, but for now I'll leave it as is. o ( ) o
I hope this doesnt throw any of you off to much Thank you for your reviews.
