The Band Of Time

Prologue

In a large park, a carpet of color covered the ground. It was a cool autumn night, and the leaves blew slightly in the wind. Suddenly, there was a bright yellow flash, and a girl appeared in the center of the trees. Her short black hair was very messy, scattered all over her face. Her eyes were filled with… nothing. No emotion whatsoever, just a thick glaze of nothing. It was too hard to tell what color her clothing was, for it seemed pure red with all the blood covering it. Many kunai and shiriken came jerking out of her body. Suddenly, she fumbled forward, and then fell to the cool forest ground below. The kunai on her stomach were forced even further into her already destroyed skin. As she fell, she dropped a long piece of fabric that she had in her hand. The blue band fell to the ground beside her limp body.

She didn't get away soon enough. She had stayed, and now she paid for it. Maybe if she had taken it off sooner. Maybe if she just said no when they asked for her help. Maybe if she didn't fall in love with his smile, she wouldn't be this way. But, she had done all these things, which brings her to this. The battle was only a blur of blood, and a scattered field of bodies now. She had gotten away, but it was already to late.

So there, on the parks floor, her blood came pouring out. She had helped win the battle, but it cost her her life. To bad she hadn't been able to help win the war.

The wind picked up speed, as the girl took her last breath. Then, she was gone. Suddenly, a large gust of wind blew by. A small pile of leaves were picked up, and then found their spot covering the blue band she had dropped. There they would stay, until they were called on once again to move, reveling the band to the next victim…
