This story is going to be about 6 or 7 chapters. It's about what happens when Ginko gets a woman pregnant and doesn't know it. Then, almost a year later he comes back to find her dead, and him with a baby.
Ginko walked into a small house on the border of a small town. He had been in that house once before; it belonged to a fling he had had about a year ago. "Hello?" he called, "Is anyone home?"
He was gently making his way through the house when he heard the soft crying of a child. He stopped and turned his head to look into the room to his right. That's when he saw the most horrific sight he had ever seen in his life; a women lying dead on the floor while a young baby cried in its crib.
He stepped forward cautiously towards the child. "Hey…" he said in a soft voice as he picked it up. He could tell immediately that it was a girl, and that she was his. She had his piercing green eyes and white hair. "How can she look like me? This isn't the appearance I was born with. Did the mushi that made me this way somehow change my DNA or something? Did it alter my genes?" I thought.
"What's your name?" He cooed softly yet absently as his eyes ran over the woman's dead body. He saw slits on her small wrists and a shard of glass in her right hand. "Idiot," he thought, "How could she just leave her child to die out of her own selfishness?!"
He hummed softly as he searched for a name on the young girls wrappings. When he couldn't find a name, he decided to give her a name of his own. He subconsciously noticed that she had stopped crying. "Aiko…" he muttered under his breath, "That'll be your name, ok?" the young girl giggled under her breath. "It means 'love and affection'; also, 'child'."
So, what did you think? Good? I'll have the next chapter up soon.
