In the year 4444
Its been discovered in the past few decades that human beings are not the
only sapient beings in the universe. We are not talking about aliens, but
the Faerie...
There are two species of Faerie, (though it is rumored they were both one
long ago.) There is the Dark Faerie. The Dark Faeries main goal is to
rule the human race, and make them their slaves. However they are far too
smart to wage an all out war against the humans, and their allies, So are
instead slowly attacking through organized crime and gangs. So it is up
to Earths police force to defeat them, joined of course with the Light
fairies. The light faerie, are typically lighthearted and happy folk,
their main aim is to help others and spread joy and love, they are on
extremely good terms with the human race. However the main reason that
the human race may like the Light Faerie is because they can grant
eternal youth and life. If a faerie marries a human, the human will be
come a light faerie as well, (though they have no magic beyond living
forever.). Sadly though a Light faerie can live forever young and
beautiful, they can be killed. Thus the stage is set for our story...
Alia was a beautiful light Faerie who one day fell in love with a human
police officer, one of the finest police officers that ever lived. Soon
they were married, and Alia decided to become a cop and fight the good
fight battling the dark faerie gangs on the street, as well. Just when
they thought their joy could grow no more it did, when Alia had a
beautiful baby girl, Kira. Kira grew into a beautiful young woman,
however sadness happens to all, and on the day of Kira’s sixteenth
birthday her parents had to leave to fight the leader of all the dark
faerie gangs, their Queen, Tamalthia.
The battle was long and hard but it came to a horrible conclusion, a
draw. Both Kira’s parents lay dying right beside the mangled and dying
body of Tamalthia. Bitter and cold, she swore revenge on them both by
laying a curse on the one person they loved as much as each other, Kira.
Tamalthia drew in a ragged breath bleeding from gun shot wounds
everywhere on her body, she points her finger at them, "A day of death
for both of us it seems..." She pauses, her once beautiful face twisting
cruelly. " However I can cause a little more pain to you before you enter
your heaven..." she exhales a long painful sigh, like she thinks its not
fair that they get to go to heaven and she will not. " A curse...a CURSE
UPON YOUR DAUGHTER! For all her life she will look like one of us, a dark
faerie, she will be feared and hated where ever she goes, no matter if
she does good or ill she will be loathed, and..." here she gave a low
laugh at the heartless irony of it all, " she will always be thought of
as a criminal, and will be chased constantly by your little police
force!" She laughed away her last breath and died. Kira's parents held
one another for the last time on earth, they did not fear death, because
for them it would be like going home. However they were very sad, for
their daughter. "Alia dear heart," Kira’s father says, looking into Alias
deep, deep blue green eyes, "Is there anything, anything at all we can do
for Kira?" Alias eyes tear up, she holds onto her husband a little
tighter," I cannot lift the spell completely, but I can make it so there
is a cure." She smiles and kisses him gently. "One cure for all things,
is true love. If someone falls in love with our Kira, she will be cured."
They close their eyes still holding onto one another and say "Goodbye
Kira, we will always love you...just as we will always love each other."
Kira’s life then rapidly took a turn for the worst, becoming a dark
faerie meant her life was in constant danger. The police were always on
her tail, convinced that she was a horrible criminal, because not only
did she look like a dark Faerie she bears a very strong resemblance to
Tamalthia. Kira though was still the same on the inside and still
strongly desired to fulfill her dream of fighting evil (she also wanted
to so this to thank her parents for everything they did for her). So she
became DarkWing fighting for justice and love, but she seems to be giving
a lot of Love and not getting any back. Until one fateful night, she was
going through the park for a walk when she accidentally bumps into a
young man who she vaguely remembered was in one of her classes when she
still went to school (she knew she couldn't go there looking like a dark
faerie, the wouldn't let her in anyway!), it was very dark that night so
when she walked in to him they had both been going so fast they hadn't
seen each other and fell down. The young man asked her if she was all
right "Yeah just injured my dignity a little." They both laugh and he
gives his name "Shadow, Shadow Sukiako." and asks hers, she gives her
name rather absently because she is so fascinated by how this boy looks,
and by the fact that he doesn't seem freaked out that she is a dark
faerie. " Hey I’m really sorry I rammed into you, would you like to go
get something to eat? My treat!" he smiles sweetly. Kira is awestruck by
the kindness in his smile, then she remembers herself. Her heart rips in
two knowing that once he sees her in the light he will most definitely
hate her. Just when she is about to deny the offer she looks down at her
hand. For a split second she swears she saw a red thread connecting both
their pinkies. She smiles at him gathering her courage, "Sure lets go!"
They walk into a small street lined with restaurants. Shadow amazingly
does not seem freaked out by how she looks at all, in fact he blushes
slightly when he gets a good look at her, it seems she was much prettier
that he thought. She has not felt this good in a long long time. Then she
sees a passerby holding a news paper, on the front cover there is a
picture of The chief of police, Under it there is a caption that says
"Officer Sukiako swears to capture DarkWing." Kira gasps in horror,
quickly making the connection. She laughs very nervously and tries to ask
Shadow casually "You aren’t by any chance related to the chief of police
are you?" Shadow looks at her surprised by the odd question, " Actually,
yes I am. He‘s my dad!"
Kira yells "Oh crap!" and turns to run much to the dismay of Shadow, "
Hey wait! Where are you going? Hey Kira come back! What’s wrong?" Kira
stops, and turns back to him, she pulls out a pen. "Listen I’m really
sorry but I just realized I have to go. Here, this is my number, call me
okay?" She writes her number on his hand quickly then walks away as fast
as she can. She laughs talking sadly to herself. "Well it seems God
really does work in mysterious ways. I've just fallen in love with the
son of the guy who wants to kill me!"
