*Ren Murasaki and
Kira Murasaki were sisters by blood, but they were also kitsunes, mystical fox people, with magical powers, they can shape-shift. Ren Murasaki was a fire kitsune, gifted with the ability to control flames, and heat. Kira Murasaki was a dark kitsune, endowed with the power to manipulate shadows and darkness. Fire kitsunes were known for their benevolence and kindness, while dark kitsunes were feared for their malice and cruelty. The sisters loved each other dearly, despite their different natures. They grew up happily in a forest, under the protection of their parents, who taught them how to use their abilities, and how to hide their true forms from humans. They often played together, creating beautiful illusions and fireworks with their magic. One day, their peaceful life was shattered by a group of hunters, who had followed their tracks, and discovered their den. The hunters attacked them with guns, and knives, hoping to capture them alive and sell them as exotic pets or trophies. Ren Murasaki, and Kira Murasaki's parents fought bravely to defend their children, but they were outnumbered, and outmatched by the ruthless humans. They told Ren Murasaki and Kira Murasaki to run away and never look back, as they sacrificed themselves, to buy them some time. Ren and Kira ran as fast as they could, tears streaming down their faces. They reached a fork in the road, where they had to choose which way to go. Ren saw a village nearby, where she hoped they could find some shelter and help. Kira saw a dark cave in the mountains, where she thought they could hide and plot their revenge. The sisters argued about which path to take.*
Ren: "we need to go to the village! The human people there, they will protect us!"
Kira: "no sister! They will only use us! They can't be trusted!"
*they heard the hunters closing in on them. Ren decided to go to the village, hoping that not all humans were evil, and that some of them would be kind to them. She begged Kira to come with her,*
Ren: "please Kira! We don't have time! I need you to come!!"
*but Kira refused. She blamed the humans for killing their parents and vowed to make them pay for what they had done.*
Kira: "you can't trust them! They will kill you... Nevermind! If you side with them, then you will be treated like them!"
*She chose to go to the cave, where she planned to hone her dark powers, and unleash them on the world. The sisters parted ways, each following their own destiny.*
*Ren reached the village, where she disguised herself as a human girl, with red hair, and green eyes. She was taken in by a kind old couple, who owned a bakery.*
Old woman: "you are so cute~ and with no family... Poor thing, we can take you in"
*They treated her as their own daughter, giving her food, clothes, and love. Ren learned how to bake bread, and cakes, how to read, and write, and how to make friends, with other villagers. She also learned how to control her fire powers better, using them only for good purposes, such as heating water or lighting candles. She was happy in her new home, but she never forgot her sister or her parents.*
*Kira reached the cave, where she embraced her dark nature fully.*
Kira: "my stupid sister... She chose humans over family, I will never forgive her!"
*She practiced her dark powers every day, learning how to create nightmares, and curses, how to summon demons, and ghosts, and how to kill with a single touch. She also learned how to hate humans more and more, blaming them for everything that went wrong in her life. She made allies with other dark creatures, such as wolves and bats, who followed her commands.*
Kira: "you will all obey me! You are my servants, and nothing more!"
*She was powerful in her new home, but she never felt any joy or peace.*
*Years passed by, and the sisters grew up into beautiful young women. Ren was loved by everyone in the village, especially by a young man named Hiroshi, who worked as a carpenter. He admired her kindness and grace, and he asked her to marry him.*
Hiroshi: "Ren... You deliver bread every day... You are so sweet, loyal, determined, and your heart is pure, pure as the sun. Please marry me! Be my beautiful wife, and stay by my side. I will protect you forever!!"

*Ren agreed, feeling happy and hopeful for the future.*
Ren: "Ohhh... Hiro.. I have been waiting for you to ask me, I couldn't say no to you. You are my everything, and you are so strong and sweet... Like a lemon cake... which is my favorite flavor, hehe~"
*Kira was feared by everyone in the region, especially by a young man named Takeshi, who worked as a hunter. He hated her wickedness and cruelty, and he swore to kill her.*
Takeshi: "this witch! She killed my family! She can't be trusted!! I swear on my mother's grave, I will kill her!!"
*He gathered a group of brave hunters like himself, who had lost their families or friends to Kira's attacks.*
Takeshi: "men! We are the evil defense group!"
*One night, Kira decided to attack the village where Ren lived, hoping to destroy everything that made her sister happy.*
Kira: my sister is weak... I will not allow her happiness to continue! It must be killed... Like my own!"
*She led her army of dark creatures towards the village, setting fire to houses and crops along the way.*
Kira: "everything must be destroyed! Men, women! Children!!"
*Ren sensed her sister's presence and felt a surge of fear and sadness. She knew that she had to stop her sister from hurting anyone else, even if it meant fighting against her own flesh and blood.*
Ren: "why... Why would my sister do this... She has no reason, these people are innocent damnit!!"
*The sisters met face to face in the center of the village, where they confronted each other with words and magic.
Kira: "Ren! How can you live among these filthy humans? They killed our parents! They deserve to die!" *Kira shouted angrily.*
Ren: "Kira! How can you be so cruel? Not all humans are evil! Some of them are kind! They gave me a new life!" *Ren replied sadly.*
Kira: "Ren You are weak! You have betrayed our kind! You have betrayed me!" *Kira screamed furiously.*
Ren: "kira You are wrong! You have lost your way! You have lost yourself!" *Ren cried desperately.*
*The sisters clashed, unleashing their powers on each other. Fire and darkness collided, creating a storm of light and shadows. The villagers and the hunters watched in awe and horror, as the two sisters fought with all their might. Ren tried to reason with Kira, hoping to reach her heart, and remind her of their love.*
Ren: "Kira... please, remember what mother said! Family is stronger than life. We don't fight like this! PLEASE!!"
*Kira tried to kill Ren, hoping to end her pain and anger.*
kira: "no Ren. You are the only one causing pain! Your existence is pain!"
*The battle lasted for hours, until both sisters were exhausted and wounded. Ren saw an opening and used her last bit of strength to cast a spell on Kira.*
Ren: "please forgive me... I wanted to save you.."
*She trapped her sister's soul in a pendant, hoping to save her from herself and from the hunters. She hoped that one day, she could free her sister and heal her wounds. Kira felt a shock and a pain as she was trapped in the pendant. She cursed Ren for her betrayal and swore to get revenge"
Kira: "I will never forgive you Ren!! I will be back for revenge. I promise!!"
*She hoped that one day, she could escape from the pendant and destroy her sister.*
*Ren collapsed on the ground, holding the pendant in her hand. She wept for her sister, for her parents, and for herself. She wished that things could have been different.*
Ren: "oh mother, father... I tried to save her, she wouldn't listen... Please forgive me... Forgive me for trapping my Little sister, forgive me for making her have eternal pain... Please forgive me..."
*Hiroshi ran to Ren's side, holding her in his arms. He comforted her and thanked her for saving the village. He told her that he loved her and that he would always be there for her.*
Hiroshi: "Ren it's not your fault... she was killing people. You had no choice... I know it hurts, but I'm here, I'm here and I'm not leaving... I love you more than life itself"
*Takeshi approached Ren cautiously, holding his gun in his hand. He saw the pendant and recognized it as the source of Kira's power. He told Ren that he was sorry for her loss, but that he had to destroy the pendant and end Kira's threat once and for all.*
Takeshi: "Ren. I'm sorry for your loss... But feelings don't matter right now! She was a monster, and killed people. The pendant must be destroyed!"
*ren looked at Hiroshi and then at Takeshi. She knew that they both wanted what was best for her, but they had different opinions on what that was. She had to make a choice. to let go of her sister, or to keep her alive. What will she do.*
Ren: "please give me a minute! I need to think. This is my sister!"
*Ren clutched the pendant tightly, feeling Kira's presence inside it. She knew that Kira had done terrible things, but she also knew that she was still her sister. She couldn't bear the thought of losing her forever. She looked at Takeshi with a pleading expression.*
Ren: "Please, don't do this. She is my sister. I love her. Maybe there is still hope for her. Maybe I can help her change."
*Takeshi shook his head firmly.*
Takeshi: "No, there is no hope for her. She is a monster. She has killed too many people. She will never change. She must be stopped."
*He raised his gun and aimed at the pendant. Ren screamed and moved in front of the pendant, shielding it with her body.*
Ren: "no it's my sister!"
*Hiroshi reacted quickly and tackled Takeshi, knocking him down.*
Hiroshi: "that is my wife!!"
*The gun went off, sending a bullet flying towards Ren. Ren closed her eyes and waited for the impact. But it never came.*
Ren: "w-what"
*She opened her eyes and saw Hiroshi standing in front of her, blood dripping from his chest. He had taken the bullet for her. He smiled weakly at her and whispered*
Hiroshi: "I love you Ren... My foxy cotton..."
*He fell to the ground, his eyes lifeless and cold. Ren gasped and dropped the pendant. She ran to Hiroshi's side, crying out his name.*
Ren: "HIROSHI!!! NOOOO!!!!"
*She held him in her arms, sobbing uncontrollably. She looked at the pendant lying on the ground, glowing faintly. She felt a surge of anger and hatred towards Kira. She blamed her for everything that had happened. She blamed her for killing Hiroshi. She blamed herself for choosing Kira over Hiroshi.*
Ren: "KIRA! IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!! YOU BITCH!!! I HATE YOU!!!"
*She picked up the pendant and threw it as far as she could. She hoped that it would break or get lost or be forgotten. She hoped that Kira would suffer as much as she did. She hoped that she would never see or hear from her again. She wished that she had never been born a kitsune. She wished that she had never met Kira or Hiroshi or anyone else. She wished that she could die too. But then she remembered her mother's last words.*
"Protect your litte sister, she is a lot more mischievous than you. She needs her big sister... Protect the innocent... Okay my big girl"
*So she picked up the pendant and put it around her neck. And said"
Ren: "I will try my hardest to not fall in love with anyone, unless I know they can protect themselves. And I will try to find a way to bring my sister back, and maybe she will be good again."
*Meanwhile inside the pendant her sister can hear everything that goes on outside the pendant. And Kira respects her sister Ren Murasaki.*
Kira: "Ren... I'm so sorry... Your husband... That is what true love looks like... I'm so sorry..."
*But the pendant also had a side effect. It allowed Ren to use Kira's dark powers, in addition to her own fire powers. Ren felt a strange and dangerous attraction to the pendant, as if it was calling to her. She felt a surge of power and curiosity, but also a hint of fear and guilt. She decided to keep the pendant with her, hoping that she could master it and use it for good. She also decided to hide it from everyone else, fearing that they would misunderstand, or misuse it.*
Ren: "I will hide this in my kimono, nobody will see it, and it will be close to my heart."
*She spent the next few days helping the cleanup over the village after the fight. She used her fire powers to burn the debris and ashes, and her healing skills to tend to the wounded, and sick. She also helped bury the dead bodies, of the villagers, and the hunters who had died in the battle. She comforted the families and friends of the fallen, offering them words of sympathy and hope.*
Ren: "I know it hurts... But they died protecting you. They died with honor"
*She felt sorry for what had happened, and blamed herself for not being able to stop Kira sooner. She also felt grateful for what she had, but mourned for what she had lost. She especially mourned for Hiroshi, her husband who had died in her arms, bleeding from his chest. He had told Ren that he loved her and that he would always be there for her. But then he had closed his eyes and stopped breathing. Ren had cried out his name and held him tight.*
*She had buried him next to his parents, who had also died in the attack. She had placed his ring on his finger, as a symbol of their love. She had said goodbye to him, but not to their memories.*
Ren: "Hiroshi... I will never forget about you... You were my everything... My lemon cake, please take care of yourself okay... And don't make anybody mad in the afterlife okay."
*She decided to go up into the mountains and help by mastering the pendant. She wanted to learn how to control Kira's dark powers better, so that she could use them for good purposes, such as defending herself, and others from danger. She also wanted to understand Kira better, so that she could find a way to reach her heart and remind her of their love. She told the villagers about her plan, hoping that they would understand, and support her. The villagers smiled sadly at her and hugged her gently. They told her that they were proud of her for making such a brave choice. They told her that they would always be there for her as their family and friend. They told her that they loved her as their daughter. They gave her their blessing and their gifts. They asked her to come back soon.*
Little girl: "please come back soon pretty lady... I am going to miss you..*
*Ren thanked them, and said goodbye, and that she will always protect them. She took the pendant with her, and left for the mountains. She hoped to find peace and wisdom in nature. She hoped to find balance and harmony in herself. She hoped to find light and love in Kira.*
Ren: "sister... I will save you!"
*She stopped by the cave that Kira lived in, and she destroyed it, because of the evil radiating from it. She made it to the top of the mountain and started meditating. and found that she could communicate with Kira*
*2000 years later ren is meditating in the forest, and she senses a very powerful magical person. Coming towards her. Kira tells her to get ready for a fight. she has mastered the pendant, and it's power. Kira decided to stay in the pendant, and with her sister. And help her instead of hurting her.*
*A man in a trench coat and a flaming sword walks out of the shadows and says.*
Man: "Hello you must be the guardian of the jungle, There is an open spot on a team, that me and the leader are putting together. You want to join.?"
