The Kidnapped Child
The Beginning
Once upon a time, in the XII century, there was a king and queen who just had a baby child named Sakura. The queen, named queen Nadeshiko, said she was going to be the most beautiful girl in the whole world.
A night after Sakura's birth, she was kidnapped. On her little crib was a letter from the kidnapper. It said, "If you want to see your child ever again, then step down from your throne and let the emperor of China take over Japan. Also, leave10, 000 gold pieces on the tree stump located in front of your gates before sundown of tomorrow. If not, then your child will pay the consequences and you will never see her ever again."
When the queen read this, she fainted. King Fujitaka just stared at his daughters crib. Just then, a little boy, around the age of five came storming in and saw his mother on the floor.
"Daddy, what happened to mother?" asked the little boy, tears streaming down his little round face.
"Don't worry, Touya, nothing happened to Mother, she just fainted. But your sister." he trailed off, looking away, thinking about his little missing daughter. Tears began to stream down his face, too.
"What happened to Sakura? Daddy? Daddy?" Touya now tried to comfort the crying king but it was hopeless, he was crying hysterically. Poor Daddy, thought Touya while walking towards his baby sister's crib, I wonder why he's crying so much. I wonder how Sakura is doing. Where is she anyway and what does that note say? "Daddy, where's Sakura?"
And at that, the tear-stained king cried even harder. "Your sister has been kidnapped!" King Fujitaka cried between sobs.
"NO!" yelled the five-year-old boy, and everyone in Japan heard him.
Next day:
King Fujitaka and queen Nadeshiko didn't do what the letter told them to. Instead, they commanded all their guards to search the country and catch the kidnappers. But little did they know that the kidnappers were out of Japan. They reached Hong Kong right after the King sent the guards.
"Ok, we're here," said a man. He was really fat, hat white hair and a very thick mustache that grew from ear to ear. He also was very short and had bright blue eyes. "Where's the basket?"
"What basket?" asked a tall man. He had light brown hair, green eyes, and was really skinny.
"The basket we were suppose to put to put the kid in!" exclaimed the fat man.
"Do you mean Sakura?" asked the tall man, plainly confused.
"No, we're going to put George Washington in there," said the fat man, sarcastically.
"Oh, ok. But wait a minute, isn't George Washington too big for the basket. Do you think we should get a bigger basket, Valdez?"
Valdez rolled his eyes. "Bones, how many times do I have to tell you that the LITTLE GIRL IS GOING INTO THE BASKET!?!? Geeze, why did I have to be paired up with you? Why is your nickname Bones, not moron of idiot?"
"Because I am skinnier than my stupidity," answered Bones, looking proud of himself.
"Anyways," said Valdez, looking around for something. "Where is the kid?"
"Who do you mean?" asked Bones. "Oh, you mean the kid, well, she, uh, she's, err, somewhere. Ah, here she is, under the chair!" and at that Bones took the kid and handed her to Valdez, who walked over to the basket and put her inside.
The two men walked to a carriage, got in, and Valdez drove off to a lake nearby.
They parked the carriage, fed the skinny, old, feeble horses, and walked over to the lake. They took the basket with Sakura and gently put her into the water in the basket, in hopes that she would float off and drown.
When they saw that the basket was a bit far from shore, they sniggered, woke up the horses that fell asleep and drove off, only thinking to the reward they would get for their so-called good deed. An hour later:
A lady was walking around in the water, with her little purple haired daughter, Tomoyo. All of a sudden, they saw a basked floating in the water, the waves pushing it gentle towards the mother. She picked it up, opened it, and saw what was inside. It was a baby girl.
I wonder where this came from, thought the lady, and I wonder why someone would put a little child like this in a basket and into to water. Someone clearly wants this little girl killed. Well, I won't let them and I'll take care of this child no matter what!
"Tomoyo, say hello to your new sister, Sakura," said the lady to Tomoyo.
Tomoyo just stared at the baby angrily, plainly jealous.
I hope you like this chapter. plzz don't send any flares or what ever they're called. I will update it in like 2 weeks or so only because I usually have too much homework.
