"Awaken."
Rin Okumura looked up in the darkness.
A woman with long dark hair to her waist and a star on her forehead held out a hand to him.
An akuma? No, his eye hadn't activated.
"Destroyer of Time. You must awaken! The end is coming."
Rin looked at the woman. She had dark blue eyes, and her face looked so pained.
"You must stop it."
Rin stared at her. "Stop what? Who are you?"
"Stop? Stop me..."
Blood covered her, spilling onto the floor, staining her dress.
"AWAKEN!"

Rin woke up and tried to shake off the dream.
But he couldn't.
Who was that woman? An enemy? Or someone he could save? Was she a demon?
Bump.
"Ah?" A girl looked up at him. "I'm sorry about that. I'm new here. My name's Kuri Hikawa. I came from the Vatican. I am a Priestess."
"So are you an Exorcist then?" Rin asked.
Kuri shook her head. "No but the binding feathers they have were taught to them by a branch of my clan. All the children of my family have been priestesses, though only the females have been exorcists. However...I am the last..."
"Oh I'm sorry." Rin said. "Did a demon—"
Kuri nodded. "Well. It was nice to meet you."
She extended her hand, and Rin took it.
"Awaken!"

Shiemi was lying in the ruins of a city. It was completely destroyed and everyone was dead.
"What's happening? Where is everyone?"
She looked around.
"That's right...everyone is dead." Yukio was standing in front of her, sword drawn. "Don't be afraid. We still have time. We must find the Darkness, and destroy it. It is the only way to stop this from happening. It is up to you and me."
Shiemi covered her face, and began to cry.

Yukio entered the meditation room.
She sat down, and began to meditate with Kanda.
"You hear it, don't you." Shiemi said. "The wind is rustling."
"What is it that you want from me, Shiemi?" Yukio said irritably, wondering if Shiemi knew about his dreams.
"I just want to meditate with you." Shiemi said simply.
"Hmph. No thank you." Yukio snapped and left.
