It Begins
Jon was an ordinary high school student, attending school in the United States. His parents had moved to the States when he was still very young, and due to that fact, he could remember very little about Japan. His mother and father appeared to be your average married couple: happy, loving, and all around good people. Like his father before him, he could see and talk to ghosts since he was born. But, it wasn't until his 18th birthday that he truly learned about the truth lives his parents were leading.
It started out like any other day, Jon went to school, struggled to pretend that he didn't already understand everything that the teachers were explaining to the class, and socialized with his friends. It was on his way home when a ghost of a middle aged man ran past him, screaming as if for his after life.
"Hey! Whats wrong mister?" Jon called after him, preparing to run after the man to see if he could help in any way. That was when he heard it for the first time. A loud, blood curdling howl.
Jon looked around and a block away, he saw a large....monster making its way towards where he was and where that man had run towards. Jon yelled and started the run in the same direction as well, hoping to avoid the monster.
"What is this? A soul with so much more spirit energy, so much stronger and finer. You would make a much more tasty meal then that meager human." Jon heard behind him, the voice sounded evil.
Jon froze, then turned around. The monster was looking at him, its red eyes gleaming.
Did that monster just talk? And weirder, did it say that it wanted to eat me?! Jon thought as he frantically wove through the crowded sidewalk.
The monster howled again, and Jon felt all of the heat from his body drain away and an overwhelming fear grasp his heart. His body stopped moving, despite his efforts to make his legs move. The monster was so close now, that he could hear its thundering foot steps, its hissing breath as its gloated in its victory. Jon turned his head to look at the monster. It had a huge humanoid body with red skin and gray marks. A white mask covered its face, it looked like a Oni demon, with horns that jutted forward, gray hair jutted from the back of the mask like a mane.
"You will satisfy me for many days! Prepare to be devoured by something as terrible as me!" The monster howled, opening its mouth to reveal as second mouth deeper in its throat. The monster lunged forward ready to swallow me in one mouthful.
"I don't think so you b*****d!" A voice shouted from no where. A figure jumped from a building just to the side of Jon and the monster. It flew through the air, sword held high, it was wearing a black outfit, but what it really looked like Jon couldn't distinguish at the moment. The man sailed through the air, did a flip so that he was facing the monster head on and brought his sword down. The sword cut right through the creature's head and body as if it was made of air. The creature howled in pain and dissolved into nothing.
The man landed right in front of Jon lightly. The man turned around to face him, and Jon felt his heart stop. There in front of him was his father. Ichigo Korusaki stood there smiling his triumphant smile.
