Hello y'all, I'm back to writing Jori. Now i still have Kigo projects to work on and a crossover I'm working on so updates will be slow for the time being. This story i was inspired to write after seeing a picture drawn up by an awesome artist on Deviantart named c-plause. I had an idea to write this once i saw the picture. There will be a short summary to come and I hope y'all welcome me back to Jori with my new story. Please R&R thanks.
Short Summary : One of wolves, one of angels, both pure of heart, both raised by mortals, both flung into the immortal races when their sixteenth year nears its end. Both will be enemies, then lovers, and finally they will be the deciders of fate. They will be the ones to choose the fate of humanity and the world. That was the prophecy handed down to the four immortal races. Demons, Fallen Angels, Werewolves, and Vampires. These four have been at war for quite some time now. Fallen Angels and some clans of werewolves are all that stands between the destruction of humanity and their salvation. Jade finds out she's one of the fallen angels. Tori gets infected with the werewolf virus. Both must then work on controlling their new found abilities. They must work to try to protect humanity and save it from the darkness that threatens to consume it. However they never figured that a more darker and dangerous threat would be posed by humanity. Together they find their feelings for one another while they fight off the forces of darkness.
Rated M for strong graphic violence, strong sexual content, and strong language.

Fireflies
Prologue
Fireflies, to many they are just insects that hover through the air glowing. They are one of the few insects that produce their own natural light. They hover around, males flashing their lights quickly to attract females. Females flashing slowly to announce their presence.
For millions of people around the world the small glowing insects are the unofficial start of summer. Children rushing outside with empty jars in hopes to fill them. People sitting at lakes enjoying peaceful nights watching the small bugs as they light the night up.
My name is Jade West and it was on a night like that that I was found by my parents. I was found lost and abandoned in the woods of Hollywood California. Fireflies were lighting their way to me. Little did they know that the screaming baby they found in the woods laying in a collection of ferns was a fallen angel. I am one of the last of the ancient beings.
Of course I didn't know what I was until I turned sixteen. That's when I was introduced into a world I never knew of. I was shown to be a protector of humanity, meant to protect humans from the forces of darkness. I was supposed to protect them from werewolves, vampires, and demons. However I never realized two things. One; humans were the real threat, well some were. Two; that the love of my life would be a werewolf.
A lycanthrope by the name of Tori Vega. A woman, she is what makes me whole and fills my heart. She's the one I'm supposed to be with. We have both knocked on death's door for each other and no matter what we will lay our lives down for one another. Werewolves are the ones who are willing to either help humanity or try to destroy it. That's because unlike the vampires or demons they still have a soul.
It's hard being one of the last fallen angels. It's even harder that the one I love is a werewolf and a woman like I am. We have to face evil werewolves, the forces of darkness and the humans who want to catch us or kill us. Life is never easy, for me everything started when I was sixteen, eight years ago. This is my story, the story of a fallen angel.

Jade sat on a tree stump her blue eyes were looking out into the dark woods. Fire flies flashed around her making her eyes dart around as she tracked each of them. Her black hair shined as the moon shined down on her. The bolt in her eyebrow gleamed as it caught the light of the moon.
She looked down to see a lightening bug on her wrist. Watching it closely her eyes followed it as it moved over her tattoo. It flashed lighting the star up. It flew off her wrist and past her head. She looked as it flew between her black feathered wings. They were stretched out, catching the wind a bit. The feathers fluttered a bit, however they were black, a trait of a fallen angel.
Her clothing was black as was her hair. She was a pale skinned girl. It fit well with her dark clothes and black wings. Just then a branch snapped nearby making her look. Her eyes scanned the darkened woods searching for the sourse of the sound. Just then a lycan melted from the darkness.
It was a brown furred werewolf. The fur was somewhat shaggy which caused it to flutter in the breeze as it blew around. Its ears were pointed and it had a long and narrow wolf like muzzle. Its eyes were a bright green with slit pupils that were locked onto her. As it walked its muscles rippled with each step of its backwards facing ankles. It had a tail that stuck straight out from the rump of the beast. It finally came to a stop in front of Jade and looked down at her.
Jade looked at the werewolf as it looked at her. She smiled a bit as the werewolf started to shrink. As it shrunk from being eight feet tall to five and a half feet tall, fur melted from its body. Left standing there was a nude latina who smiled brightly at Jade. This was Jade's love Tori Vega.
Jade reached to her side and grabbed a set if clothes as to which she passed them to Tori. She took them from her and proceeded to dress herself. Once she was dressed Jade stood up and walked over to her. Tori's eyes still had slit pupils and were locked onto Jade. For them,they were finally at peace. No more fighting, no more violence, and no more killing.
Tori grabbed Jade's coat and pulled her to herself. They looked into each other's eyes, the fireflies around them lighting them up making them glow. Slowly they leaned in and kissed each other, their lips moving together. Jade's wings wrapped around them both and cocooned them in her wings. They broke apart from the kiss and looked at one another. The fireflies seemed to be drawn to them lighting them up as they stood there.
"I love you" Tori said softly as she kept her head tipped to Jade's.
"I love you too" Jade replied as she caressed Tori's cheek.

July 26th, 1992, Beverley Hills, California
Andrew and Bethany West took a walk through the woods behind their house like they did every night. This night they had found their way into a clearing. They walked over to a rock and sat down on it. They watched as the stars twinkled above them. It was a warm summer's night with a light breeze blowing.
They marveled as the fireflies danced around before them. Bethany leaned her head onto her husband's shoulder making him smile as he looked up to the sky. They needed this walk, they needed this because they had been delivered heartbreaking news. They were never going to be able to have a child of their own.
Just then a wind blew by them and carried on the wind was a cry. It was a baby's cry, an infant's cry. Bethany heard it first, her maternal instinct kicked in as she got up. Andrew looked at her as she took off into the woods. They moved through the woods towards the crying sound.
They came up a small knoll and stopped to look down. Fireflies hovered in the air lighting the area up. In a collection of ferns near a log they saw it. An infant girl, not more than a few days old crying. Bethany moved down to the child as Andrew looked around searching for any signs of the child's parents.
"Andrew, we've been blessed, this child" his wife said making him look to her. She pulled her wind breaker off and wrapped the crying infant up in it. Her eyes lifted up to her husband who was looking at her. "We found her for a reason" she said softly as she looked down to the baby.
Andrew looked at her before looking to the child in her arms. Slowly he stepped forward and looked at her. The child cooed making him look to the baby in his wife's arms. He looked into her eyes and smiled a bit, she was right. This child was found by them for a reason. This child was there's now and it was what they needed.

Under a tree nearby was a pair of figures who watched as the two humans carried the infant away. One was a woman while the other was a man. The woman had a pair of black wings sprouting from her back. She gripped onto a knife and prepared to go after them. She stopped when the man's hand grabbed her arm. He was a werewolf while the other was a fallen angel.
"Two humans have taken the newest guardian" she hissed at him.
"I see that, but they are not evil, not like those that hunt us" he replied looking at her.
"How can you be sure?" She questioned as she sheathed the knife.
"I can sense it" was his reply as he turned to face her. "She is One of Two" he said as they started walking into the woods.
"One of Two?" She asked making him glance back to her.
"One of wolves, one of angels, both pure of heart, both raised by mortals, both flung into the immortal races when their sixteenth year nears its end. Both will be enemies, then lovers, and finally they will be the deciders of fate. They will be the ones to choose the fate of humanity and the world" he said recounting an ancient prophecy passed down to the immortals from the gods.
"We must watch over her, guide her down the path of the pure hearted" the fallen angel said looking to him.
"You will, you are a fallen angel, I am a werewolf, I will watch for the werewolf and once I find the werewolf, I will guide the wolf" he said looking at her.
She looked at him before nodding slightly. Her wings flapped and she lifted up into the air. She looked down at him and smiled at him. "Until next time, Sikowitz" she said before flying off leaving him there.
"Until next time, Allison" he said walking into the woods.

Sixteen years later
Tori sat in the woods behind her house. It had been a long day at school. She remembered what happened, how Jade had dumped that iced coffee on her head. She had gotten her revenge by making that Jade girl watch her kiss her boyfriend. She smiled a bit, laughing about what she had done.
A branch snapped behind her making her turn and look. The moon shined down making it hard to focus. She looked when suddenly from the brush jumped a wolf. It landed on the ground in front of her making her step back. It looked at her snarling, its muzzle was wrinkled and it bared its teeth at her.
Her eyes shot wide when the wolf stood up on its hind legs. It walked towards her growling. She looked as the bipedal wolf looked down at her. Suddenly in a blinding flash it shot forward and pinned her to the ground. She was to afraid, her throat had a lump in it making her unable to scream. The wolf snarled before shooting down and biting her shoulder.
Tori screamed in pain as her blood gushed from the wound. Suddenly the wolf on her was tackled off of her. She rolled to her side, her hand coming up to stop the bleeding. She backed up to a tree and rested her back against the tree. She looked to see a man had attacked the wolf. The wolf towered over him, growling deeply at him.
The man hissed before suddenly he tackled the two legged wolf down a hill.
She heard the crashing as they disappeared from sight. Getting up slowly she growled in pain as she gripped onto her shoulder. She staggered through the woods back towards her house. As she did she fell to her knees before she passed out.

Her eyes fluttered a bit as the sun shone down on her. Slowly her eyes fully opened and she sat up quickly and looked to see she had passed out in her backyard. She looked to her shoulder to see it was covered in dried blood like her shirt. Pulling her shirt down she looked at the wounded area of her shoulder. The wound that had been inflicted upon her was gone. Instead there were several pink scars making her raise an eyebrow in confusion.
Getting up slowly she staggered a bit before walking towards her house. She opened the door and looked to see she had the house to herself. Moving up the steps she made it to her room. Once in she stripped down and looked at herself in her full body mirror. She saw her muscles seemed to be much larger than she remembered. She was unsure what had happened to cause this sudden growth spurt.
"Tori, we're home" she heard her mother call from down the steps. With the sound of them moving around on the floor below, she locked her door. She dressed herself quickly and hid her bloody clothes under her bed. Turning, she left her room leaving the thoughts of the previous night behind her.

Two weeks later
Tori sat in her room studying for the test on Monday. She sighed a bit, it was annoying to her. She stopped when she heard a skittering sound. Her eyes drifted around her room looking for the source of the sound. Her eyes stopped to see a spider crawling across the wall, on the other side of her room.
She stood up slowly looking at the spider as it kept crawling around. Then her nose picked up on the scent of the woods. She looked out her open window to see the darkened woods. The clouds parted and the full moon shone down on her. Her head lifted up and locked onto the moon.
The wind swirled around kicking her hair up. Suddenly she doubled over gasping in pain as she clutched her stomach. Her free hand grabbed onto the corner of her desk as her growls deepened. Her eyes changed, becoming a bright green with slit pupils. Suddenly she launched herself from the window.
She landed in a tree, stopping only long enough to bound from tree to tree. Soon she crashed down onto a rock with a loud growl. Brown fur began to grow from her body as her fingers elongated. They tapered to claws at the end of her fingers. She heard fabric tearing making her look back. A tail sprouted from her, making her eyes shoot wide.
Suddenly her face elongated and her ears pointed. Her hair became shaggy as she stood up and grew to be eight feet tall. Her teeth became long fangs and hung down, protruding from her mouth. Her chest became muscular as did her legs. Her ankles lifted up and were backwards facing. Looking herself over she then realized something, she was a werewolf, like the creature that bit her. Her arms went out and her head snapped backwards and she let out a powerful howl that echoed throughout the woods.

Sikowitz stood in a tree looking down as Tori ran through the woods. He smiled a bit, his eyes were locked onto her retreating form. This is what we have been waiting for, the pure hearted werewolf, he thought as he transformed into his werewolf form. Still smiling he looked up to the moon before suddenly howling and jumping down into the woods.
