Stella sits in one of the darker corners of the library, o book in her face as she reads. Not paying attention to the outside world she absorbs herself in the books, barely noticing how the shadows seem to crawl around her.

Chitsume wandered the aisles, trying to find an interesting book, and caught the scent of a relative, which led him to Stellaluna's corner. "Hello," he said, noticing the way the shadows seemed to dance around her, as well as the additional scent of human on her.

Stella looked up from her book as she turned the page eyeing the boy speculatively. "Hello, I don't believe I know you." She replies, feeling anxious, why would someone she didn't know approach her??

"Oh, right," he replies, bowing from the waist. "I am Sendobikou Chitsume. Did you know that you're a demon?"

"A demon?" Stela questions starting to get pissed of, it was another one of THOSE guys. "Look bud, I don't know why you and all your little friends are calling me that, but it needs to stop. So tell who ever's telling you to call me that that the next it happens I'm hunting them down and their going to get a spike steel toe boot up their butt."

"What?" Chitsume responds, confused. "No one told me that you're a demon, you just smell too much like my family to be anything else."

"Excuse me?" Stela replies, anger portrayed all over her face. "Look here compadre, I don't care who you are or what you say, you need to go to a mental institution cause I ain't no demon."

"No," replies Chitsume, "you are most definitely a demon. You smell like any of a number of my relatives, and my family consists purely of demons. By the way, who are your parents?"

"My parents," She whispered, saddened now. "My parents are dead or gone, left me in a orphanage. I was raised there, and never left till now, I doubt I'm related to you."

"That certainly accounts for the strong human scent on you,"said Chitsume. "You hardly spent any time at home!" After a moment of thinking, he said, "I'd like to try something to prove to you that you are a demon. If it doesn't work, I'll leave you alone as much as classes will allow as long as you are in a human form, but if it does, then you have to admit that I'm right. Do we have a deal?"

"Fine," She growled waiting to get his over with, not ready to believe.

"Then follow me please," Chitsume said, stepping into a deep shadow and disappearing.

Stela stood up and followed, comforted by the fact he was stepping into the shadows, which always seemed the best place for her.

The shadow continued into a tunnel, opening out onto the middle of a hilltop in the middle of a large, empty field, suspended with nothing causing the shadow.
OOC- they are now on their home plane, that of the demons

Stella looked around eyes wide, utterly confused. "Where are we?" She asks looking around, everything seeming almost familiar.

"We're home," said Chitsume. "Soeki!" he shouted,causing a small, wicked looking beetle to fly up and land on him. "Show our guest what she is." The beetle flew to Stella, landing on her forehead. As soon as it touched her, she began feeling a strange split emotion, in which she was both enraged and completely detached from everything.
OOC-Her demon name is Kurai, right? Also, the split emotion is designed to waken the demon aspect without suppressing the regular consciousness.

OOC- Yep, Kurai!
IC- Stella screeched as her emotions began reeling, her body feeling completely different from her mind. She could feel herself changing, yet somehow staying the same. After a moment she looked down at her hands to to see shadow like clawed fingers, shaking with disbelief. It couldn't be, how could the boy be right?

"Your given name from our clan would have been Sendobikou Kurai," said Chitsume. "You are pure darkness, lacking any distinguishing characteristics, which is, in itself, a distinguishing characteristic. You will have the strongest affinity towards and control over the shadows. You should be able to make existing darkness solidify and do as you command, as well as make shadows with no source, no matter where you are. You will be able to use your shadows, if I am right, and you can make them, to do things like what I did with a preexisting shadow, although portals do not have to be between planes. Also, now that you have remained conscious through a transformation, you should be able to control them, and remain in control of yourself during them. I think that you are the first demon in our clan's history to grow up unaware and not in control, so that's just a guess on my part. If you need more help mastering your nature, you can talk to me any time you want, or my father, Sendobikou Hokaze. He teaches Covert Ops. at Kaerush. Also, as a member of the Sendobikou clan, you are upper nobility in the demon hierarchy."
Soeki, the large beetle, flew away, allowing the double emotion to fade, and, with it, Stella's demon form.
"Which questions do you want to ask first?" Chitsume asked.

"How is this possible, how did I get to where I was if I'm your relative?" She questions wringing her wrist in her hand.

"I seem to remember hearing about one of my cousins being kidnapped by humans before I was born, and that was probably you," said Chitsume. "Seoki, the beetle that helped you transform, is on his way to inform the Sendobikous still on our plane that you have been found, and if the pair who lost their kid thinks you might be theirs, they can come by Kaerush to see you. We should also get you back on campus and introduced to my dad. This would be a good time for you to practice manipulating shadows. Go ahead and just imagine a shadow about as tall as you in the middle of this hilltop, and then concentrate on the Library back at Kaerush as you walk through, keeping it open behind you."

Stella breathed deeply, concentrating on the feeling of comfort she got when ever she was bathed in shadow. Picturing in her mind what Chitsume had told her to, she opened her eyes, surprised to see a portal like shadow before her. Faltering for only a second she began to step through, imagining her often visited site, the library.

Chitsume followed Stella through the portal, glad that he was able to convince her of her true nature.

"Should we go get our schedules and get to class now?" asked Chitsume.

"If you'd rather wait," he continued, "I could begin the combat training everyone in our clan goes through early on. My weapons are just a brief summons away, and unarmed combat also features prominently in the training. What would you prefer?"
