#3 of The Slave Keiko
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Keiko was born as your regular lynx fur who never really was loved by anyone but her best friend Kei, a Pheonix lord. Kei was the strongest of the six pheonix lords and ladies known to man, Kei, Seth, Beta, Kira, Flare, and Kisa, were the six. They were hunted for their power and there feathers.
Keiko, when growing up knew that by being friends with Kei, her life was always in danger, and Kei knew that by having a friend he was even more at risk. However they didn't care.
Early one morning when Keiko headed out to chill with Kei, she was stalked. She never sensed the furs, for she was young, about fourteen, and very naive. Kei was the only friend she had. She mostly kept to herself and hide from others. When she arrived at Kei's cave the furs fallowing her attacked her, and decided to use her as bait for Kei. Kei tried to protect her and fought with the fur till his powers were almost drained.
That's when Akira showed up. Akira was 16, and had been fallowing the furs that were stalking Keiko. He had always liked her, and fallowed her everywhere to make sure she was safe at all times.
Kei, with the last of his powers merged with Keiko. He thought that if Keiko had a protector, (Akira) that his powers could never be hunted again, though he had only placed Keiko in more danger. Keiko's markings turned red and her fur black. Her claws shifted to talons and wings sprouted from her back, and she fell to the ground, blacked out from the world. Akira ended up fighting off the furs and talking her to his place and taking care of her till she awoke. To her, she owed him her life, to him she owed nothing. Keiko, when she awoke, pledged her body and spirit to making him happy, for she would not be alive if it wasn't for him.
