From: The Fox GIFT FROM THE DEATH ************************ A Fox Lady fanfic. Standars Disclaimer. ...Can be rated... Domo Arigatou to Ashfae-san and Jan-san!!! The clear evening was disturbed for by a lone figure walking. A long gray and yellow coat show fantastic shades as then wind played touching the cloth, long wings and unquiet tail like light drawing giving to the figure a ghostly air. As he walks , the lights of Kyoto's streets pooled at his feet, as if fearful to touch his darkness. But when it reflects in his frozen eyes, the people passing by tremble, as a cold sudden wind has touched their hearts. Aoshi Shinomori has received a letter. "In the garden of Johji's temple. Monday Midnight. Or your sister will suffer the consequences" *My...sister?* As he walks, Aoshi grins, and without apparent reason starts giggling. <---------------------------------------------------------------------TBC! *Baka ones. To think Misao and me are brother and sister... could also be Himura's brother, as long as we are thinking of it...* Aoshi resumes his cold expression when he enters the garden. Of course , it's late : a rule to follow in this type of encounter. He waits patiently in the first stone seat , feeling a bit amused. It's not routine for the Okashira to personally deal with every stupid menace received. But the mistake of the poor silly ones had amused him. A good job, really. A cloud covers the April moon... ...and he jumps to his feet quickly, feeling danger nearby. Someone is watching him. Someone powerful... and ready to attack. " Good evening, Aoshi ." comes a voice...,the voice of a old man. But the tone was't old of all. Was strong, and powerful, and... dark. " Who are you? " was the studied calm response. " That's not the matter. The matter is who you are " (Fox: geez, I just remembered the Lion King and begin giggling...) " Why did you write to me?" Aoshi's voice is calmer than he feels now. The ki of that man in the shadows is strong , and hostile . No matter the stupid error : they can cause hurt. And he isn't willing to let this man be in the same TOWN as Misao. " I wished to see you, Aoshi. You have grown a lot since our days." " our...days...?" come Aoshi's answer, suddenly that voice seeming strangly familiar...and painful. Like a never forgotten child's nightmare... " I want what is mine, Aoshi - of - the - lake " comes the voice " You and your sister was promised to the night . And now is the time you will be ours finally. " " I'm the Okashira of the Oniwabanshuu. You don't have any power to touch me, and I don't have a sister ." Aoshi snarls, feeling the fear become cold rage " I'll not hear more nonsense. Fight, or let me in peace " " Bad choice, child! Very bad choice...for her..and for you..." the voice dissapeared with a shrug . The presence was gone of the little garden in a second, and he trembles . He was alone. Suddenly, he feels the need to back to the Aoiya . Fast . --------------------------- ONElist Sponsor ---------------------------- Register now and you could win a Volkswagen New Beetle at LiQ.com!
