Chapter 1 - The Long Prologue:Castiel's Tale(Part 1)

"Long before time dared to tick, before the notion of "before " even came to be,there were being who floated in the vast expanse of nothingness.Celestial entities -Primordial forces not bound by laws,matter or reason.

Amongst them were two peculiar twins,Yin and Yang - two sides of the same coin yet their essence differed greatly.Yin appeared whiter and gentler with two black hollow eyes that had no pupils.Yang was brute and rageous,he was a floating mass of darkness except his hollowed out eyes that also lacked pupils radiated a bright white light.

A void without shape or edges,the twins -curious beyond comprehension- wandered in its silence.

"We've seen everything," Yang growled, his voice like the rumble of collapsing stars. "Or rather—there's nothing to see."

"Perhaps that's the point," Yin murmured, his tone soft as ripples on a still lake. "Nothingness is everything... until it isn't."

"I'm sick of this.We ought to find who or whatever made us.We ought to have a purpose.",Yang's body pulsated in fury.

"Purpose,you say.What's that? I've never heard of it...Pur...pose...pur...pose.What a strange term.",the term kept gnawing at Yin's oblivious nature."It's almost amusing how you mention it now that we've put a distance between us and the others.Do you not, perhaps,trust them,brother?"

"Trust?"

Both brothers were shook.For once they felt they had reason,using terms that didn't bind them before.

"It must be here somewhere.But where exactly?"

The brothers looked around the vast emptiness searching but couldn't find anything,they could however feel deep within their being that something had been watching them this entire moment -it could've been a few seconds,or a few thousand years -time was obsolete.

Suddenly,Yang threw his fist roughly in the air,on the space behind him,"I got you now!".He tore a hole in interdimensional fabric,a bright radiance coming from it blinded them.Yin,quick to think on his feet,rushed in and pulled out whatever emitted that shine before the fabric repaired itself.

The radiance simmered as the torn fabric healed from its wound.It was a crystal.

"I believe this is it,brother.No,I know this is what we've been looking for.It just told me.In it's world it's called The Stone of Creation and Rebirth" Yin's nonchalance couldn't hide his excitement.

Yang tapped on the crystal with his knuckles,"Well, whaddya know?",he began to laugh uncontrollably,his laugh was contagious Yin laughed too.

The Stone had existed in a higher dimension than theirs.

Yin's laugh came to a sudden halt.He cracked the crystal and handed half of it to his brother while he clenched his hand tightly on the other one,"You and I,brother,are two halves of one whole,the stone shouldn't be any different."

With that notion,Yang humbly accepted the stone from his brother's warm hands,quite opposite to his.

The Stone remained pure white in Yin's hands but turned a crimson red in Yang's...
