Episode One
The Birth Of Kiseki
The train tires screeched as it came to a halt in the Tokyo Station. The door slid open and a young girl, about 12, walked out with a blue backpack on her back and a red duffel bag in her left hand. She had waist-length lavender-colored hair and ocean blue eyes, and she wore a very short red sleeveless that showed her bare stomach and bright blue shorts.
"Hmm... Where am I now..." she mumbled to herself.
She looked up and around, there were so many people here! She sighed and walked off, soon realizing that she left the station.
"Great... Just great..."
She looked around once more, only to see everyone stopping in his or her tracks and staring up at the large screen on top of a building. She too looked at it, only to see two girls fighting. One had long white hair and red eyes, and was wearing a white kimono. And the other had bright pink hair and eyes, wearing a red and white outfit with a little bit of yellow here and there.
"Wha..." she mumbled to herself, becoming interested.
A tall man with messy green-blue hair and spectacles with rectangular lenses appeared, his white lab coat blowing in the wind. A goofy smile was on his face as he stared straight at the girl.
The girl continued to watch the two girls fight on the screen. Soon the red and pink one had tricked the white one into going under the water. The white one glared as she tried to punch the red one; the red one dodged and kicked the white one in the stomach. That sent her down to the seafloor and that was the end.
"Whoa... That was so cool!" the girl exclaimed, smiling happily.
"Excuse me, Miss..." the man spoke, tapping the girl on the shoulder.
The girl turned around and blinked, her smile turning into a grin.
"Oh, hello there. What is it?"
"My name is Oujirou, and I couldn't help but notice that you were watching the match..." the man replied, smiling down at the girl.
"My name is Rain, and yes, I was watching the match. Wasn't that girl in red great?" the girl asked with a smile.
"Umm... Yeah... Well, those two you saw fighting... Weren't real girls... They were dolls for a game called Angelic Layer."
"Huh? Really? I've never heard of it..."
"Well you have now! Would you like to try playing?"
"Sure! I'd love to!" Rain answered with an excited voice.
"Then follow me!" Oujirou exclaimed, taking Rain by the wrist and running off to a large, pink store.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Once inside, Rain found someone who worked there at the store.
"Excuse me... Umm... I'm looking for... A doll... For Angelic Layer."
The woman smiled and said, "Follow me." The two walked to a very pink isle with many boxes and things in it. Rain smiled and looked at all the boxes; that was when Oujirou appeared again.
"Hey, you need help finding the stuff you need?"
"Yes, please..."
Oujirou took a bunch of boxes from the shelves and put them on the ground beside Rain. There were four boxes all together, and then she picked them all up. Rain went and paid for them and ran back to Oujirou.
"I brought all the stuff, Mr. Oujirou!"
"Good, good... You should go home now and fix it all up... But for now, I've gotta fly!"
After saying that, Oujirou went flying out of the store. Rain watched with a sweatdrop.
"What a strange guy..."
She looked down at her little, coin/money purse and gasped. It was empty. She couldn't take the bus or the train to get to her destination.
"Darn it!! I'm gonna have to walk..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The doorbell rang, and Rain's Aunt Ceci went and opened the door.
"Oh! Rain, what happened?!"
"Eh heh... I went shopping and I wound up flat broke... I had to walk here..."
"Oh boy... Well, come on in, you must be tired."
Rain nodded and walked in putting all her stuff down in the living room. She sat down on the couch and on the coffee table in front of her was a cup of tea. Rain would smile and take a sip.
"So, what'd you buy?" Ceci asked, going to Rain's bags and opening one of the boxes.
Her eyes widened when she saw a small egg with wings and a little doll in it.
"Wha-What is this?"
"It's a doll. Once I got here, I heard about this game called Angelic Layer. I watched two of the dolls fight and thought they were really cool! So now I'm gonna make one!" Rain explained with a smile.
"Hmm... I'm going to bed now, have a good night, Rain." Ceci spoke, getting up and walking off to her room.
Rain smiled and took her stuff into the guest room that would be called her's now, taking out the egg call the Angel Egg and running to the bathroom to take a bath.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She sat in the tub, holding the egg on her lap. She opened it and water poured out of it, the doll motionless. Rain took the doll into her hands and smiled.
"Well... I guess I'll have to fix you up, Angel..." Rain then thought of Angels from Heaven, she smiled again. "I know what your name will be... It will be Kiseki... Miracle..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She took out the hair from one of the boxes and cut it straight to be elbow-length, the color of the hair was dark green. She smiled and set up the computer and the stand, turning on the machine and putting the doll in the stand. Rain watched as questions appeared for how her doll should look and act, she'd answer all with excitement.
"She'll be a light weight... Like me... And she'll have bright green eyes to match her hair... She'll be courageous but gentle... Shy.... She'll love to make friends, too... But she'll fight them when she has to."
The computer then asked: Name? Rain typed in Kiseki and then the computer turned off, the doll still floating in the stand. Rain watched as Kiseki's eyes opened, a smile appearing on her face before she fell into Rain's open hands.
"Kiseki... We'll have lots of fun together..." Rain whispered, hugging her new doll.
Rain let go and went to bed, setting Kiseki beside her on the pillow.
"I'll make you some clothes tomorrow morning... Good-night..."
