Alright! Everything's back to normal now, so it's time for me to get crackin'!

I awoke to the sunlight filtering through the curtains in my bedroom. I yawned, stretched, and sat up. After the fatigue of staying awake for more than 48 hours, I must've passed out as soon as I laid down on my bed. I rubbed my eyes and yawned again.
"Did you rest well?" An adult female's voice shattered the morning silence. I jumped out of bed, ready to kill the intruder, and saw a woman of about age 21 sitting in a chair, with chin-length reddish-brown hair and stunning green eyes that, if you looked into them, seemed like you were looking into an endless bamboo forest. I also noticed that there were three teardrop-shaped dark blue markings beneath her left eye. Her clothing was of Victorian style, and a black parasol rested in her lap. She looked somewhat familiar, but I had never seen her before...
"I see you are frightened. But do not fear; I am Chishio, in my human form. The form, that is, before I died," the woman said calmly. I believed her immediately and relaxed my posture. "That's better," she said, and stood up.
"But..." I started, "How did you get out of my body?"
"Apparently you don't remember a damn thing. But, instead of me tying to explain everything to you, I'll just show you..." Chishio replied, and strolled over to me. She placed her pale hand to my forehead and instructed me to close my eyes. I did so, and within seconds, my mind was flooded with memories from 2012: what had happened to me, what was going on with the world at the moment, D. Kyuubi's reign, my reconciliation with my brother... everything. When Chishio was finished, she took her hand from my head and I opened my eyes.
"Was that...?" I began.
"Yes, it was. All of that happened to you," Chishio replied quietly.
"How were you-"
"I'm a bijuu, and I can do amazing things. You should know that by now."
"B-but, does that mean D. Kyuubi will take over the world in the future? I need to warn everybody!" I started to panic.
"No, you do not. Shukaku Ichibi was able to go back to the past through the time machine, and I know that being the powerful Legendary 9 member that he is, he will not let it happen again, one way or another. Calm down, Asuka..." Chishio put her hands on my shoulders and stared me in the eye, which instantly soothed me.
"Okay. There's two more things though..." I stated.
"And what are those things?"
"Well, for one, I don't want to kill people without reason anymore."
"I understand. You WILL have to kill people occasionally for good stamina and well being, though."
"That's fine. And... Two. Why, after I talked with my brother, did I cry diamonds?"
"It is because your tears were pure. They held strong emotion. The tears you cried that night were purest, untouched, unpolluted thing that could ever be of human or bijuu." Chishio smiled. "Now, you need to go and get some fresh air. Take a walk through Tokyo! I'll be here tidying the place up. If you need anything, just tell me. Remember that you and I can talk through telepathy because our minds are one~!" she chirped in a singsong tone. I grinned and tied my blue choker with the bell around my neck, and out of my apartment door I went.
The crisp air felt wonderful. I felt so different now. For the first time in my life, I thought that things were beginning to look up now. I wondered if I could revisit my brother in that special place Chishio took me to. But, I shouldn't be concerned about that right now. The tears you cried that night were purest, untouched, unpolluted thing that could ever be of human or bijuu... Chishio's words echoed in my head. I took in a deep breath of fresh air and skipped happily down the busy sidewalk. I felt that maybe I was going to meet somebody new today... Perhaps a bijuu. I guess I would find out soon...
Please continue!

Hmm... So now Asuka knows about the future... I hope that's ok! ^^;
Chishio... She was talking about Shukaku like she knew him... Maybe she does, maybe she doesn't. It's up to SandLover13 to confirm or disprove our suspicions! > <
And PLEASE have Asuka meet somebody new! She's only met Raijuu and Kokoro, and that's all. (Lolz I'm trying to get Asuka's storyline more involved with the others... >.<)
Umm... I'll shut up now!
Sincerely,
