~Black and White~

~Prologue~

Do you believe in soul mates?

The haunting thought that everyone has someone who matches him or her, in perfect balance?

If you do, you will surely know what I'm speaking of.

If you don't believe in this, you should listen carefully.

There is one special tale about soul mates, easily called Light and Dark, or Hikari and Yami.

The tale tells that every human soul is perfectly split up between the two factors, Light for all happiness and Dark for everything considered just dark. Thereafter, a soul chooses its own path, following the path of darkness... or light. A soul mate for these people can be anyone, you might think, but the fact is, that the balance must still be held. If you have a small path to the dark, you should try to find your twin soul in one with a small path to the light. If you do, the balance between you will always land on the perfect scale, and then you have found the one who is for you.

For Yami's and Hikari's, it's a little different. You are always born Yami or Hikari; it's not something you become. The Hikari represents the light, and Yami the dark. Now don't get me wrong, Hikari does not mean you are completely perfect and happy, never swear or steal, because that happens! And then of course, Yami's are not evil, they can be total normal people, the only reason these are called like this, is because for them... Soul mates are the only thing that can help them be alive.

A normal human can marry and love anyone, it doesn't have to be your soul mate, you can be happy anyway, but for Hikari's and Yami's, they must find their other half, they won't feel any love against anyone else. It's like black and white. Nothing in the middle, just the opposite is the one for you, the only one for you.

In that perspective, Yami's and Hikari's have a harder time finding love than any normal mortal human, but not impossible. Many tales tell of the search of the true one, and this is no exception.

You might not believe me, but I hope you will, as I tell the tale...

The tale of a search for the true one...
