Hey! Its Raye here. This is my first fic so be nice! Please.. Ok, anyways, on with the essentials.

Shamanic Princess and all related chars do NOT belong to me. -sniffles- however Saori, Laika, and whomever else I come up with later are mine. So no steal! Grrr. lol

A/N: Ok, this takes place after the entire shamanic series. Kagetsu and Tiara are married and have a daughter, and same with Lena and Leon. Well that's pretty much it so on with the story and please R&R!!!







They simply stood there. Surrounded by darkness and covered by their cloaks. The two women looked at each other before one spoke.

"Lady Tiara, many things have changed over the years." said the older woman. "I know Anya".

"And they are in trouble..."

"Who?" asked the guardian.

"The children."

~*~ Children of the Guardians~*~

"Saori! Where are you?" yelled the protector of the family as he ran through the woods.

The furry creature was then startled by a girl jumping out of a nearby tree and landing right in front of him.

"Jopolo, will you stop following me around!"

"No, it is my duty to protect the princess."

"I don't need my mother's pet chasing after me!"

"I am not a pet!"

"And I am not my mother!" the child yelled back before running off.

Jopolo just sat there and sighed to himself. "However, you are just as stubborn as her."

"Stupid ferret", said Saori to no one in particular as she ran to a house she knew all to well. She knocked on the door and it was answered by a tall lady with long green hair and olive eyes. "Hi Miss Lena!"

"Why hello Saori, how are you this fine day?"

"I'm fine, is Laika home?"

"Yes, let me get her."

"Thank you."

She was looking around at the new decorations in the house when another girl jumped down the stairs, and then tackled her. "HEY SAORI!"

"Gah! Laika!" she replied as she giggled. "Get off of me!"

"He he, sorry Saori."

"Its ok, c'mon lets go!"

"Ok, bai okaa-san!" she yelled to her mother.

"Bye Laika, be back for the festival."

"Ok."

The two girls then ran to the forest. When they arrived it was time to show off their new talent.

"Look what I can do!" said Saori. She placed her hand palm up then concentrated. Soon a small flame appeared then burst into a large flame. Saori giggled as she threw the flame into the lake. "Neat huh?"

"Yea! My turn!" Laika placed her finger tip into the water then concentrated on her energy. She slowly pulled her finger out of the water and with it cam a small cyclone of water. She pulled her hand back then watched the water. Both of the girls laughed when the water fell back into the lake.

"Kewl! We are gonna be the best magic users ever!" exclaimed an excited Laika.

"Yea, we sure are." agreed Saori.

"I cant wait till we go the the other world tomorrow!"

"SHH!! Laika, not so loud, Jopolo could be around." Yelled Saori as she looked all around.

"Oops, sorry, so when do we leave tomorrow?"

"Dawn, we'll meet here."

"Ok, well, we better go, festival is soon."

"Yea, bai!"

With that the girls went their separate ways until later. Unknowing to the girls a visitor lurks in the shadows.

"Tomorrow my princess... dawn will be your end."
