Darkness Without Light: A Kurama's Destiny

Darkness Without Light: A Kurama's Destiny

"Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people.-Carl Jung "

"Papa!" She screamed. "Onniii Chan!" She cried. Silent rain drops from her eyes sprinkled across earth. Plants soaking up blood, listening to her cries with invisible empathy. "Help me!"

Soru jumped awake. Panting and sweating, even bleeding through his nose. His nightmares were getting worst. Something weird for a Genjutsu user. Usually he entered his inner realm during rest. But lately, something blocked his entrance. He could feel Boido....but barely. He looked over to his left where Yuna rested. Her silky kimono kept her warm in Tenjogakure's chilly night air. Her hair was a mess, but, it brought out a certain mature beauty. He gently leaned over and kissed her cheek.

As his door slid close, Soru closed his eyes and leaned over his railing. Tree's whispered of silent movements. Eye disguised and shrouded kept Soru safe. Even though he hardly needed it. But as of today, Soru could feel something wrong inside of him. Something dark stirring.

"My lord, is everything alright?" A dark voice pierced the night air. Head of personal security, under Chi Akimichi himself.

Soru pondered for a minute and sighed. "Yeah...Just the moon is surprisingly bright tonight." His hair shined within moonlight. And his third eye became fully visible to those who watched. "Funny. Even at night, the stars and moon keep this world alight."

"Of course Lord Tenjokage. As you cannot have Darkness without Light."

The young Tenjokage's eyes shot open for a minute as he realized what had just been said. He calmed down shortly after and smiled to himself. Turning towards his shadow. "I guess you have a point. It's funny really, I- never mind. If it's okay with you, I'm heading to sleep..Goodnight." Soru bowed and made his way to his sliding door. An oriental door covered in intricate designs. With a massive halo at the top. Soru's home wasn't much to look at first. But, it became a manor from behind.

"Hang on sir. I have something to report." He announced, grabbing both Soru's attention and awareness. "Packages were suspected today...But for some reason they have yet to arrive."

"Maybe they were lost on the way." Soru proposed.

"No, I knew the guy shipping them to and from. He knows the roads better than he knows his children. Something is happening."
