The Male- Chapter 1
Posted: Tue Aug 12, 2014 4:12 am
(Prologue)
A man wearing a hooded robe sits in a corner of a dimly lit room with a smirk, as an old man tells a story to bright eyed children. "You dear children have heard of the Kitsune correct? From the gentle Inari, to the mischievous Youko. Well it is said once every thousand years one of them will give birth to a male. This male though no more powerful than his female counterparts is often revered by them. This story is about the one who perished but 20 years ago." The man in the corner shifted slightly, and turned his pointed ear toward him. "The other Kitsune worshiped him to the point they followed him as king. He led the Kitsune kingdom, if you could truly call it that, on wild adventures. Under his rule he protected OUR kingdom with his magics. He protected us with no intent to demand our loyalty. Yea, he did not wish humans to follow him. He protected us as we were too week to protect ourselves. For 500 years we enjoyed the peace he brought us, for 500 years before that he... enjoyed his youth. Now he has passed, and the Kitsune kingdom has dispersed, and they return to their seclusion. Our kingdom has grown in that time, and now we may protect ourselves. We have become the largest, and most powerful kingdom ever!" Suddenly the old man's tone changed to become more sinister. "Now there is no army to hold us in check, and the world IS our kingdom!" With this the children cheered, and the man in the corner stood up. He began to walk toward the door, and with a wave of his hand the old man fell to the ground dead, and the children asleep.
"I always hated the ending to that story." Said the hooded figure as he closed the door behind him.
(Yeah, so I wasn't planning on going this rout. It was originally going to be happy go lucky, and cheerful, but I figured "Eh what the hell?" This is the result. It actually gives me a little more plot to work with than just traveling around some times getting laid, and sometimes not.)

Feel free to comment, criticism is helpful... well it is when it's positive.
