The Awakening
By The Guardian of the Hell Gate

Prologue

And so it begins......

It was 12:00 a.m. In the city of Niigata, Japan. A child had awoken while all others slept. The young girl felt like something horrible was going to happen. It seemed that her pets felt that way as well as they tensed and jumped off her bed and began to pace almost as if they were willing her to also arise. 'Back and fourth back and fourth' they paced 'click, click' tapped their claws on the hard wood floors. Finally she got out of bed to go to her parents room. Out she went into the hallway.

Click, click.... Her pets had followed her. After what seemed forever they arrived at her parent's room.

Creak....... Went the door. The sound seemed loud against her ears after the relative silence, and sent shivers down her spine.

"Mom, Dad wake up. I need to tell you something," she whispered.

*Yawn* "What's wrong?" he father asked groggily.

"I have a really bad feeling like something bad is going to happen," she whimpered.

"Don't worry, its ok," cooed her mother as she gathered her child into her arms.

But her mother had unknowingly lied. For the child should have worried and it wasn't ok.

At that moment the girl's seemingly perfect life shattered, As her neighborhood was set ablaze.

All five residents of the home rushed outside at seeming the flames, and just as they did their own home was torn a part by what could only be a gundam's rifle.

The girl clung to her mother like a lifeline, as the fire raged out of control. The child was scared. More so then any other time in her seven years. As the smoke filled the air so did fear indescribable unstoppable fear.

But still the family of five ran. As the buildings fell, as the tortured screams of friends and loved ones cursed to a harsh fate filled the air they ran. Until a building fell across their own path, leaving only enough room for the child and her pets.

"My child run through that space run until you can't any longer," whispered her mother into her child's ear.

"No I can't leave you," she cried tears streaming down her face.

"You must," said her father.

B-B-B- but," stuttered the child.

"Hush child, for we will always be with you," said her mother.

As she leaned down and slipped her necklace onto her daughter's shoulders. She never took the necklace off it was a family heirloom. Its chain was of silver, with five charms on it. One was a dragon made of emeralds. It was silent and calm, but radiated strength.

The next was a phoenix it was of yellow diamonds, its wings outstretched as if it were just enjoying the ride.

After that was a winged dog it was of blue sapphires, it was on its hind legs wings outstretched it seemed to be leaning forward its mouth turned back into a snarl showing off menacing teeth.

Then was a winged cat made of the reddest rubies, its wings folded into its back crouched low to the ground a grim satisfaction on its face as if it had just won a battle.

Lastly, there was a diamond 'K' in the middle.

Her father then slipped a ring onto her father. It was also a family heirloom. Engraved into the ring was an epic battle. With all the animals from the necklace on it, battling almost identical enemies. It looked like it could have been the end of the world, until a light cam and sealed the forces as they waited until their mistress would unseal them.

The child was astounded by their beauty but quickly snapped out of it as she realized what it meant. And she wanted to protest but the desperate looks on her parents stopped, so she instead just nodded her head and began to run, her pets not far behind. As she cried out "I love you!!" one last time. She also heard their own 'I love you too".

The passage was dark and hot. So hot it burned her skin on touch, and she felt like she was suffocating, she wanted to just give up and die. The only thing that kept her going was the last piece of her parents. Then she was out of the tunnel and running as fast as her legs would. And more than once she wanted to just fall and never get up, but pets wouldn't let her helping her up every time she fell. Then finally she was OUT! Finally she was out of that hellhole. But still she ran until she was on the hill that overlooked her home. There she finally fell panting, hurting, and bleeding. Not even her pets could move on any farther.

"Ahhh! So you're awake. You've been asleep for three days," said a voice.

'Why should I wake up there is no one left for me?' the child now orphan thought to herself.

Almost as her pets could read her thoughts they snuggled closer to her causing her cool necklace to touch her hot skin. And she remembered why because her Mom and dad wanted her to.

So she slowly opened her eyes squinting against the harsh light, feeling as if there was a heavy weight on her chest.

"And you were also put up for adoption and have been adopted surprising quickly. By Dr. Himikimura he has a daughter named Rain as well." She continued.

"Ok" she quietly replied.

"Oh, and here's Rain now." said the doctor as she headed for the door.

And in came a young girl about the same age as her with brown hair and eyes, she was wearing a white t-shirt, blue jeans and some sneakers.

"Hi my name's Rain, and you're my new sister, what's your name, and your cat and dog's? Oh don't worry we're adopting them too, wow you are so tan, but I guess that's what happens when you live on Earth. By the way we're on the colonies." she said.

The child smiled slightly she liked Rain already "The dog is Yasha, the cat is Suiichi and I'm Kagome Higurashi."
