Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Nightmare Begins ❯ Accidental Reunion ( Chapter 1 )
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
As usual the rain was pretty heavy, wind strong, and lightning flashing on and off consistently. The only person is sight at the alleyway behind the toy store is a young teenage girl with purple hair streaked light and dark purple; her eyes matched her hair except for the left one which had red sparks on it from an accident so its covered by a dark shade of sunglasses to which a normal human wouldn't be able to see through it. This girl, yeah its me, name's Alex, you know Alexandra, a dream demon, well more like a nightmare demon, a bit hatred angel along with darkness demon in me. I'm three hundred years old but my human form looks around thirteen to fourteen.
I'm literally a trained torture machine, well without the machine. I listen to rock music and I'm considered a gothic rocker. I don't have a lot of friends except for a few. Rumors spread that I was in the Ningenkai, but people fought over where exactly I was, the only places they agreed on was Alaska and Japan. I was currently in Japan.
Sigh as boring as this place is there could at least be a little fight or something to pass the time..... This sucks.
I hear footsteps coming my way and jump silently into a corner in the dead end. In moments another girl walks down the alleyway as if looking for something or someone. I sigh, relieved, and jump down right next to the other girl startling her and making her hit me with a light blast.
“Watch it Emily.”
She makes another glowing ball of light and I can see her better. Same blonde hair and pink eyes, same preppy best friend for two hundred and eighty-nine years except she's thirteen now. Me and Emily as crazy as it seems to other humans and demons were and still are best friends, prep and a gothic rocker. She hugs me and I just stand there. She looks me up and down and frowns playfully.
“Alex, don't you have any different kinds of clothes, maybe normal.”
“What if I don't?”
“-sigh- fine but at least come with me to eat or at least get dried.”
“I like the rain-“
Too late as quickly as it took for me to almost finished she pulled my hand and literally, dragged me back to a small Victorian style house at least two floors and an attic black and white. No matter how girly Emily is, she will always have enough strength to beat up every army of all three worlds. Oh yeah, she's a light demon and day dream demon, with some love angel blood in her. She's my exact opposite but we're still close friends.
Dripping wet and tired, I sit down on the couch just for Emily to smack me behind the head and annoy me.
“WHAT NOW!!!??!!”
“You're gonna get my furniture wet and don't yell.”
“I'M GOD-DAMN TIRED AND IT'S NOT LIKE YOU....have...... parents?”
“Um.... sweetie who is this young lady a friends of yours from school?”
“Yes, mom, her name is Alexandra.”
“Alexandra, Nice to meet you.”
My eyes and brain remain in shock mode at the sight of a foster parent for Emily. I regain my composure quickly and try to act like nothing happened. Except the fact and idea that Emily actually takes orders..... FROM A HUMAN...... WON'T LEAVE MY MIND ALONE!
I turn my head towards Emily's foster mom and smiles..... And almost gag in the process.
“You're welcome here at anytime you wish to come, Alexandra. We're having dinner in a few minutes, why don't you stay until then and have some food with us if you're hungry.”
I shake my head softly and Emily glares at me and my head shakes turn into a nod.
“Great we're having steak and salad.”
I quickly start to where I remember Emily's room to be and waits at the door way. I can hear the foster mom walk to Emily and even what they're whispering.
“Is she also a demon like you she seems to know the house pretty well too is she really from your school, oops I almost forgot Yusuke called and said that he'll be here after dinner and might bring a few friends over I told him it was ok.”
“Thank you, mother.”
Emily walks into her room and I follow and sit down on the carpet.
“You went and got yourself a mom....... how pathetic.”
“She knows pretty much everything about demons so I thought why not and she adopted me.”
I grunt out a short reply.
“You're growing soft.”
“And apparently so are you or you wouldn't be hiding from Lord Koenma and instead you'd be beating his men up one by one. Let me guess, you killed Ranu.”
I stare at the carpet and Emily automatically knows I did not.
“He escaped...... he's in the human world now.”
“Whoa....... so the spirit detectives have to deal with him huh?”
“Fight yes, win not so likely. So who is this Yusuke kid?”
“Ah you over heard us, he's a mere child from school strange part is he has a high level of spirit awareness and power.”
“Good for him, so you've been to the demon world yet, or waiting to tag along with me?”
“No, not yet but I found out something about two of the five gems, they're all underwater in the demon world.”
The gems Emily's talking about are treasures not even Koenma and his family has. They are the moonlight, sunlight, love, hatred, and dream gems, the first two are worthy especially to dark and light demons. The moonlight gem can destroy light in any world covering the world in darkness and the moon and stars their only light source. The sunlight gem does the opposite; it covers the world in bright light constantly and burns away darkness demons.
Love gem can put love spells on anyone and the hatred gem can turn anyone against their love. The dream gem has only one purpose to summon dragons.
I immediately start to pay attention. That moonlight gem was stolen from me with the nightmare and hatred gems when I was 7 after an accident that changed my life. (Don't worry you'll find out, but maybe not in this chapter) Spirit Detectives are something I don't know of. I've never watched the Dark Tournament so I really have no idea who they are. The Moonlight gem is also supposed to be able to summon the crescent, full, and new moon dragons and fuse them together. The Sunlight gem can summon the dawn and dusk dragons and fuse them together. The love gem can summon it's dragon of broken hearts, and the hatred gem can summon its betrayal dragon. The dream gem can summon its guardian dragon, nightmare dragon, and daydream dragon.
“I'm listenin-“
“Dinner's ready, girls.”
“Time to eat.”
I sigh and mumble, “Yippee.”
I walk behind Emily and down the stairs to the dining room where they all sit down except me who stays standing up.
“Please um.... sit down.”
I look sort of surprised and sit down. I sit in front of them and they start to say grace while I sweat drop because me and Emily are demons. I wait for them to finish and they both start to put loads of food on their plates and I only get a little bit and finish it in seconds.
My ears pick up the sound of four sets of footsteps walking up to the front door and I stand up and walk to open the door.
“I'll get the door.”
~ding dong~
“How did yo-“
“Mom just ignore her she has a way.”
