The next morning, Ayame woke up unusually early, earlier than she normally would. Slowly sitting up to stretch and rubbing the dreamer's dust, from her eyes before groggily glancing around the room, her eyes caught the most unfamiliar sight blankets arranged into a makeshift bed. Her dark eyes widened into a look of first shock, then fear, and, finally, realization.
The wheels in her head gradually begin to turn and grind together, as the information from the night before started to process, and the whole thing began to speed up as Ayame's brain came out of 'sleep mode' and stabilized into a state of proper functioning. When she finally reached this state of consciousness she heard and smelled a commotion in the kitchen
"What the Hell!!" She instinctively cried out
Scrambling out of bed, Ayame slammed open the door which led to the rest of her apartment.
Now, Ayame was not a dumb girl her mother made sure of that. She knew it was dumb to rush out into any unknown situation, yet but if she right about what was occuring she had nothing to worry about it.
And boy was she right.
"Oi, bastard how do you like your eggs"
"Why the hell are you still naked asshole"
"You want to go again huh, bastard!"
The scene that Ayame was introduced to was, Damien at her stove and Kaiden lounging at her kitchen counter, with a laptop seemingly trying to ignore the angry yelling teenager with an egg.
'What the hell. What the hell. WHAT THE FUCK. Why are they in my apartment? How do they even exist? No no no no no no no no no. They can't be here. They still haven't seen me. Do they really hate each other that much.' So many questions bombarded Ayame's unprepared mind some completely irrelevant.
Spying a baseball bat close by her Ayame, spent only a second to make her decision. Her instincts screaming her not to do what she was about to do yet she was going to do it anyway. All it took was one step, and she was off
Hearing footsteps, Kaiden turned his chair around to see what was coming, relief echoing on his face that Ayame had finally awoken. "Hey Damien, Ayame is aw-" Before he was able to finish his statement a bat found its home against the side of his head.
Hearing a loud crash. Damien turned around from cooking his breakfast to find a bat heading for his head.
Time seemed to slow down for Damien as he counted his two viable options. 'Ok, so i can either stand my ground and fight this vindictive girl, an option which seems too appealing, but my precious eggs would burn. Or i could take my lumps, and my taste buds could still experience the orgasmic experience of eggs.' Internally sighing Damien finally came to a conclusion before he sent a wayword glance to his favorite food before mouthing a prayer 'I hope you can forgive me eggs'
Ducking under the horizontal strike of the metal bat, Damien grabbed the handle of the frying pan he was cooking his eggs on and threw them at the attacking girl. Briefly distracting her he used that moment to give her a headbutt straight to her noggin.
'Shit she has a fucking hard head', as Damien was reeling from the impact Ayame clutched his hand and pulled his body in. 'Fuck, i'm in her range.' Using that to her advantage Ayame ungracefully clothe lined Damien across the throat with all the force her small body could muster. As if she was attempting to crush his larynx. Which so happens was exactly what she was attempting to do.
Laying on his back Damien, could hear the sounds of Ayame calling the authorities. 'Crap, how did me and Kaiden lose.'
Her adrenalin finally calming down Ayame finally finished the formal call with the operator making sure to ask for officer.
Looking over the mess her kitchen was in, she noticed her entire carton of eggs gone. 'Who the hell eats that much eggs, without getting tired of it.' Hearing a sword leave it's sheath cocking she turned around to the sight of the bladed edge in her face.
"You hit hard girl, but of course i've been hit harder." Kaiden looked at the floor of the kitchen to see Damien gasping for breath with tears in his eyes. Kaiden couldn't tell if the tears came from the fact that he lost so decisively or because he lost his breakfast "Like the idiot said we have a lot to discuss.
(Sometime Later)
Hearing a knock on the door, Ayame answered the door, only to find a single police officer.
"Hello officer,"
"Is there a problem here ma'am"
Looking around Ayame responded before a embarrassed blush bloomed across her face. "I'm sorry officer but the culprit who broke in ran only a few minutes ago. I would let you in but..." Ayame eyes darted to the back. "My roommate is not taking the break in well." Seeing that the officer wasn't taking the bate Ayame tried one more tactic. "Officer the robber was on foot the last time I saw him you could still catch him if you leave now."
Giving basic details of the perk to the officer Ayame gently closed the door behind her.
Turning from the door, Ayame was consumed in a large puff of smoke. When the smoke cleared standing on the spot that previously occupied Ayame stood, Damien Fiore. "Damn I hate doing that."
Walking into Ayame's room, Damien found Ayame tied to a chair and Kaiden watching over her.
"Ok, Ayame" Damien began "I have a few things to discuss with you"
"Fuck you," Ayame was simply livid not only do these idiots think they can just stroll into her apartment without her permission, but they also tied her to a chair. "Once I get out I'll fucking end you two!"
"Woah, wait wait wait, you think I want to hurt you." A fox like grin creeped itself onto Damien's face. "I can't hurt you, even if I wanted to." As he continued to speak he showcased the mark over his chest.
Watching Ayame's eyes widening. Damien nodded his head "So I can only assume you have this mark on you too."
Nodding her head, speechless.
Spying her reaction, Kaiden began to explain. "Well what you're calling a mark is actually a rune. According to the information I can gather it's celtic in origin, and the function is...well quite simply it binds you two" Damien opened his mouth to speak but Kaiden continued. "And there is no way to get rid of it unless the person who created it were to do it?"
Ayame was utterly confused "Well who cast it?" She needed to find this person and force them to remove this "rune"
"Well...." Damien began, 'How exactly do I do this, guess i Just gotta wing it' "...it was your Father, he did it."
A calming silence penetrated the room after Damein's last statement. Yet it wasn't a refreshing silence for the two teens in the room. It was the silence that permeates the eye of an hurricane. While they were in the epicenter of peacefulness they knew that soon, very soon in fact they would have to face the wrath of the hurricane.
Kaiden turned off his laptop.
Damien, was prepared to flee.
And Ayame?
Ayame simply only felt one word was appropriate for her given situation...
"Motherfucker!"
(Sometime Later)
After finally cutting loose Ayame from her chair. Damien finally sat down to explain what was going on, and also explain the new world that she was now involved in. For someone new to this Ayame believed she was taking it pretty well, in her opinon. While Damien and Kaiden may question why, the answer is quite simple. In a world full of magic any reasonable person shouldn't count such things as supernatural beings out of proportion.
"So what you're telling me is..." Ayame started looking at both Kaiden and Damien. "My father was dying and apart of a secret cult, he used the last of his magic to bind you a Kitsune to my body in order to protect me from his enemies, and those "things" from last night where his enemies i presume."
Damien began to laugh "You pick up this stuff really fast, Ayame"
"Werewolves." Kaiden said matter-of-factly, looking up from his laptop "What you saw and ran away from were Werewolves."
Kaiden and Damien sighed before Kaiden began to speak, "I'm the son of the police chief here, and the idiot over there's a fox. It's about as simple as that. What about you how can you fight like that?"
"Huh." Ayame said, storing this information, "You learn something new every day. I guess if Kitsunes exist then its not that far fetched to believe Werewolves exist." Nodding her head in thought, Ayame continued "Why do I need a protector I already know how to fight, I can even fight with magic. Why do I need you, not that I have a problem with you but, a simple heads up would've been appropriate."
Scratching his head, Damien couldn't disagree. 'Why did her dad force this on me, she can fight just fine.' "Beats me Ayame, but I can't exactly leave."
Sighing Ayame, nodded her head in thought. Before speaking on something that she has been wondering"So what are you two supposed to be anyway? Like whats your deal?"
This time it was Ayame's turn to smirk. "Well my mother works for the C.I.A. but in the end I guess it's just that I love fighting" A short statement, but Ayame said it with such passion an resolve that she did not have to elaborate on it any more. "By the way Damien, what exactly do you do. Don't tell me you're simply a fox."
Unable to contain his anger, Damien exploded, "Oi, Fuck you Kitty!"
Yet the next explosion didn't come from Ayame, but from Kaiden. "Hey Guys!"
Ahh blissful silence.
"Damien you may want to set down for this."
Seeing the seriousness on Kaiden's face, Damien decided against threatening Kaiden with violence. "Whats wrong Kai"
"Well, there is one other side effect to this rune..." Pausing in order to make sure he had the attention of the kitsune and simply trying to come up with a way to phrase his next statement "Well the Rune takes alot from you it takes alot of your power, it takes away your decelerated ageing, and it takes away your immortality. For all intents in purposes Damien you're simply a thirteen year old boy."
Another pause permeated the room. And once again only one word could eloquently summarize the current situation. Yet it was Damein's turn to say it instead of Ayame's.
"Motherfucker"
