I now disclaim muchly! I have taken nothing of the author's original idea. :P
Tragic Moon Spirit
Chapter 1
Moonlight streamed on the frigid waters off the coast of Japan's Island Okinawa, on the Chinese new year. A young Japanese couple, held their daughter, the only one of three that made it with them, tightly. The twelve-year-old girl was staring at the shores of her home; lights of cities were dimming as the large yacht, stocked with supplies, moved them farther and farther away from all she knew.
"Hisakata…" Kyohaku murmured to her daughter, worriedly.
"Ka na…" (Interesting) Hisakata murmured back, quietly. Her Japanese face remaining emotionless, betraying the tears the poured down her face.
"Nani?" (What?) Kyohaku blinked in confusion, hugging her daughter tightly.
"Iie. Haha, Chichi, oyasumi nasai." (Nothing. Mother, Father, goodnight.) Hisakata broke free and bowed to her parents, and walked gracefully into the cabin and laid on her futon.
"We should start speaking in English. Britain was not made with the Japanese language freely spoken. We will be stared at."
"Mmm…Aki…?"
"Yes?"
"Should I go…look in on her?"
"Yes." Hisakata father was a firm man, and a strong soul. His two missing children were a heavy burden on him. Kyohaku nodded and walked into the cabin where her daughter lay.
"Hai Haha?" (Yes Mother?)
"Chichi says, that we must talk English now." Kyohaku sat down gently on the edge of her daughter's futon.
"Nani! Iie!" (What? No!) Hisakata sat up abruptly on her futon, and gave her mother a desperate stare.
"Mō shugo, watashitachi tóchaku shimasu. Igirisu…English…is easy." (Soon we arrive at England) Kyohaku said after a moment's frusterated silence.
"Ja arimasen." (Is not) Kisakata argued. Kyohaku sighed and looked at her daughter with frustration.
"How old are you?" she asked gently.
"Juni sai." (12 years old) Hisakata murmured.
"Then act like it! Now what was so interesting on the deck, and I want this explanation in English please."
"How easily Taiyou and Ame gave in…you make me give up my home, my siblings, now my language! I escaped them though! I have done nothing wrong! I didn't give into evil! WHY DID WE LEAVE MY BROTHER AND SISTER?" Hisakata began to cry fiercely, the way most 12 year old girls, who have just gone through something tremendous usually do.
"Taiyou, and Ame…were…washed away. Washed to darker places that are inside them. Inside their hearts, these places dwell. Your…not so easily vulnerable. We cannot save them as of yet. When your older, and stronger, can we fight off these infestations amongst your siblings my daughter. No matter what, we will save them." Kyohaku explained the best she could, the only way she could.
"When? How? Nothing can Haha. Nothing can. We didn't like the way that we were, born unto a spirit world of darkness, and yet we prefer the ways of Earth, compared to his ways. Because we wont be accepted into any other places, we hide on a mundane world. Because of what we are, or rather, whose land we were born unto. Haha, don't you see? We can't escape, all of our lives we will be fighting. Yes?"
"Yes…but…"
"Soon we will be at England, yet another mundane place. A place that can't protect us."
"That is where you are wrong. You will be protected." Kyohaku smiled at her daughter firmly.
"How?"
"Hogwarts…" Kyohaku smiled grimly, and nodded, after a long pause.
