Bumblebee AU

This will be my first proper AU where everything is set in Ancient China based on the stories of the Tiger and the Dragon and how they both equalled and completed each other.

So enjoy the very very short Prologue of this fic. (not asking for reviews for the prologue)


Prologue

In the ancient stories of china there existed two beings, these beings were the dragon and the tiger. Both were more powerful than man for it is believed that they possessed powers that man could not begin to understand. However neither of these beings could overpower the other for they were the only two that were equal to each other.

There were two villages, the village of Ānjí which was protected by thick bamboo forests and the village of Hángzhōu that was surrounded by mountains. Both these villages had a guardian in which they worshipped.

Hángzhōu had a dragon as its Guardian. The dragon was called Yang Xiao Long, meaning little sun dragon. The being was gold in colour, its mane a vibrant yellow, its eyes a deep shade of violet and had long spiked horns. A temple was built into the highest mountain to house the dragon. The mountain was called Klippe or Peak Flown From Afar, it was furnished with silk curtains, goose feather pillows and a many number of other things it was also the only limestone mountain amongst all the sandstone peaks that mostly surrounded the village.

Ānjí however had a tiger as its guardian. The creature was named Bùléi kè diān qié, or in English, Blake Belladonna. The tiger was as black as night with ash-grey stripes, its ears were slightly more pointed than that of a normal tiger and it had golden eyes that could see through any soul. The villagers also built a temple for the creature, but not in a mountain, but rather in a clearing near a small stream. While it was furnished much like the dragon's it was fitted with doors, for it is said that the tiger can change into a human like form. The same is also said for the Dragon.

While many stories say that these two beings fought one another to show their strength and overthrow the other, it was not how it happened. It was actually a story of love, how the two found completeness when within the presence of the other. Despite being different species, that did not stop them from being together.
