Prologue- Luka

5 years ago

It was there on that small hill. A tiny house was comfortably resting on. I shuffled along the path to get home when... I saw her. She was outside playing. There was no one else there. No parents. No neighbors. Nobody. She was just surrounded by the open air. She looked to be about nine years old and had beautiful short blond locks. Her large blue eyes shone with innocence. On her head was a white hairband with little flaps coming out of it like ears or leaves on a fruit.

I stopped to gaze for a little. Looking down, I put my hand to my stomach as I recalled that incident. Because of that incident, I lost my daughter and I could no longer conceive, and that filled me with sadness. I could feel the scar that ran across my lower body through my silk black top. When I turned my head, I could see her looking back at me. I took a step towards her as my gaze softened.

"What's your name, little one?" I asked with sincere smile adorning my face.

She didn't answer me instantly but instead, looked around nervously.

"My brother told me not to talk to strangers!" she shouted with a stubborn pout as she turned and tried to run away.

I quickly reached out and put a hand on her shoulder to stop her.

"Don't worry. I mean no harm," I said as I knelt down in front of her. "So much like her. You look, just like her... if she were to be this age," I said as more soft mumbling escaped from my lips.

I couldn't help it. This child. It felt as if she belonged to me. This child is mine! Mine! MINE! I remained calm and stopped myself from doing anything. I restrained myself and smiled at her reassuringly.

"Like I said, I mean no harm. I would never hurt you," I spoke gently and calmly. "I just would like to ask, what is your name?" I asked her once more.

She looked down towards the ground. "My name? It's Rin," she said as her cute, innocent face looked up into my eyes.

"Rin..." I repeated. I couldn't help myself anymore. This girl, it felt she belonged to me. In fact, she did. This was my daughter, I told myself. Placing my hands on her waist, I lifted her up and started carrying her. I could see her opening her mouth to scream, but I put my hand over her mouth so stop her from doing so. This child was mine. At least, she should be. I started to walk away until I heard the sound of running feet. I paused, and I looked around. Suddenly, I heard a voice.

"Rin! I'm back from the market! I bought you the oranges like I promis-" he stopped as he looked in my direction. He stopped as he saw me, who was holding Rin. His eyes widened and narrowed as he glared at me.

"Rin! What are you doing with her? Put her down!" he yelled. He dropped the bags that he was carrying and started running in my direction.

I picked up speed, but he could run really fast. A few seconds later, I could see a couple rocks flying through the air just a couple inches by me. I couldn't risk my lovely daughter getting hurt.

"Give Rin back! Don't take her away from me!" I heard him shout.

No, she's mine.

I had no interest in the boy, for he wasn't mine. I gently put down Rin, who had fainted, most likely from shock, and stood in front of her. The boy ran at me, tears running down his face, and tried striking me. Gracefully, I leaped to the side, dodging his pathetic blows. I smirked as I took out a small deep red stone that was attached to a chain. I proceeded in slightly swinging it back and forth. His eyes soon became locked onto the stone.

"Memori no Kokan" I said. The hypnosis was starting. That is what I did. I was a professional hypnotist. I normally have my own building in town where I do my work, but some people will request that I go to their house. In that case, I would charge extra for house calls. I hypnotized people when they believed that it was the most probable treatment for anything.

The boy's eyes closed.

"Now sleep" I said again calmly as his lifeless body stood and remained in place. "You will forget everything about this girl. All of your current memories of her will be locked away and forgotten. Now awaken." I said as his eyes opened widely. He then stopped running in my direction. The rocks that he held in his hands dropped to the ground, and I turned and ran away swiftly. As I approached my home, I looked at the girl in my arms. I took notice as the dried tears that were on her face.

"It's alright. Don't cry," I whispered to her as I stepped into my house and laid her on a sofa.

When she came to, I was already swinging my stone in front of her.

"Memori no Kokan, sleep," and she did. "You will forget everything about your previous life. I am your mother now and this is your home. Your name is Rin. Rin Kamui," I said softly as the door suddenly opened. "Awaken," I said quickly. I heard a yawn escape from her as she collapsed back onto the couch. Ah, she's probably just tired.

"Luka! How was your day?"

I spun around and saw my husband at the door "Gakupo. Y-your early," I said as I looked towards the sofa were Rin was lying.

I ran over to him and put my arms around him pulling him into an embrace. I pulled away, but he just leaned in more. I felt his lips press against mine. I blushed as our lips interlocked into a kiss. He smiled and closed his eyes as he put his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. My heart was racing, and I ignored Rin, who was still lying down. I extended my arm and placed my hand on his head as I played around a with his long eggplant colored hair. We pulled away after a little bit, remaining in an embrace. Twirling his long hair around my finger and looking into his eyes, I couldn't help but become captivated by his gaze. When I looked up again though, he wasn't smiling.

"Luka, who is this?" he asked. His eyes were fixated on the sofa where the little nine year girl old lay, sleeping.

"Why, that's our daughter," I answered.

He swiftly pulled away from the embrace and placed his hands on my shoulders.

"Luka, you shouldn't be doing this! This girl already has a family," he said as his eyes, which were looking into mine, slowly narrowed.

Is he... mad at me?

"She already has a family! And that's us!" I answered back. "No one will miss her anyways. This is our daughter, Gakupo. So-"

"No, she's not... Luka, I know what your trying to do. You think a day doesn't go by when I'm not thinking of her?" he said as I tried to step back. His grip on my shoulders was too much though! My eyes started to widen. This wasn't the reaction I was expecting. I looked up into his eyes and could see that tears were slowly starting to build. "But Lily died months ago. Taking another girl from her home simply because she resembles her won't bring her back!"

In a flash, I pushed him away. I didn't want to do this, but I couldn't help it. He just made me so mad sometimes! Hesitantly took the stone out from my pocket.

"M-memori no Kokan. Sleep," I said as tears slowly built in my eyes. My hands trembled as I held the chain. "This girl is your daughter. Her name is Rin. She is our child, and you are her father! Nothing ever happened, no incident, Rin's always been with us since she was born!" I screamed as I watched him stand in place.

What have I just done?

"Awaken," I said, trying to remain calm. That was impossible though. "No," I whispered to myself as I faced my husband who was smiling.

As I has realized my mistake, my eyes widened, I clenched my teeth, but no matter how much I tried to swallow my tears and stop them, they still fell. My hair, that had fallen in front of my face clung there with the help of my tears.

"I'm sorry, Gakupo," I whispered softly as my crying stopped.

My regrets suddenly vanished and it felt as if everything bad had went away. When I turned around, I saw Rin, who was lying on the sofa, awake. She's... my daughter.

"Mama, why are you crying?" she asked with large curious eyes. I wiped my face with my sleeve and took a deep breath.

Everything was going to be alright. Right?

After hearing her voice, it filled me suddenly with energy. My tears have completely dried as I started chuckling to myself. As long as I had... my daughter... then everything would be fine. Right? Right? It will. It will!

I insanely smiled to myself as shrieks of my laughter filled the house.


I got a question, and after reading it again, I decided to include it

Q:What happened to Gakupo? Did he die or something? A:No he didn't die. He was hypnotized into forgetting about his previous daughter and acknowledging Rin as his actual child by Luka. If you remember Luka's previous hypnoses she said the same phrase. Yeah, that part was kind of bleak. What happened was that Luka didn't want to hypnotize him, she never wanted to, so that's why she freaked out. The next chapter that is told in Luka's point of view will elaborate more on her past and more on 5 years before the present.
