A new story…

Tears of a Fallen Angel

"Do you want me to come in with you?" Mrs. Noelle asked.

"No thanks Mrs. Noelle!" Three year old Kikyo chirped.

"Okay, well then I will leave now, goodbye!"

"Bye!" Kikyo ran up the stairs clutching a piece of paper in her small hands. She rang the doorbell and waited, but there was no answer, no one came to the door. Kikyo turned the doorknob and found that it was unlocked. Slowly, she opened the door and stepped inside, "Momma?" there was no answer, "Papa?" once again there was no answer, just silence. Kikyo started to feel scared. Where could momma and papa have gone? She stepped in further, suddenly she heard a faint sobbing sound, coming form the living room, gingerly, she walked towards the room, there she found her auntie and her cousins sitting on the chairs, their faces a mess, and tears stained their clothes. "Auntie!" Kikyo cried, as she ran up and gave her auntie a big, warm hug. Auntie dried her tears with her sleeve and flashed a sad smile at the sight of her niece, "Why hello Kikyo,"

"Why are you crying auntie?" Kikyo questioned.

Kikyo's auntie put on a serious look; she sighed and put her hands onto Kikyo's shoulders. "Look Kikyo, there's something important you need to know, you father and mother….you father and mother are in a far away place and they are not ever going to come back home…", Kikyo's lips started to quiver and soon endless tears started rolling down her cheeks, one by one it fell forming a lake of its own on the hard floor, the drawing of her family she drew slipped from her fingers and fell to the ground with a thud.

Ever since the death of my parents I have been living with my auntie and cousins, it's a wonderful life, I feel as if they're my very own mother and siblings, always there for me. My auntie always seemed to be getting new jobs every week, therefore we move around a lot. This time, auntie announced that she had finally found a job that she approved of, and so we will finally settle down in a house in Tokyo, Japan, this is so exciting!

It was the first day of school… well not quite but it certainly felt like it to me. I ascended up the stairs and stopped, I looked up, there was a big sign that hung above the doors, and on it said 'Welcome to Kanagawa High!' in the colour maroon. I averted my gaze back to the doors, I felt nervous and excited at the same time, my heart pounded. This is going to be an awesome year! Well here I go! I grabbed the door handle and was about to push it open when a group of girls came and shoved me, "Get out of the way!" one of the girls snapped at me as they walked inside. They're not very nice… I mused. Suddenly I felt a little tug at my shirt, I glanced down and to my surprise I found a little cute child around four to five years old, though her face wasn't bright with a smile like the children I see usually have, no this little girl had a sad, gloomy look on her face.

"Yes?" I asked

"I-I can't find m-my p-parents, can you h-help me?" The little girl stammered.

I gaped at the child, memories flooded back to me of myself when I was child searching for my parents that were never coming back ever again. I gently patted the little girl's head and kneeled down so I came face to face with her.

"Of course I will help you find your parents, but first of all why don't you tell me your name?"

"It's Esther!"

"Ok Esther lets go."

As we were walking and looking for her parents, I was taken by surprise when Esther hooked her hands onto mine; she grinned at me and went back to walking. Finally we reached our destination, the spot where Esther last saw her parents, and there were her parents sitting on a bench with their faces buried in their hands, I watched as Esther's face lit up with joy and immediately sprinted towards them and hugged them, her parents were so happy and I felt good to have been able to help someone. Her parents ambled over and thanked me; I replied that it was my pleasure. As they turned to leave, Esther came back again "Thanks pretty lady! Hope I can see you again sometime soon!" And with those last words she ran back to her parents, happily singing away. I stood there letting the events sink into my mind, when all of a sudden I realized I was going to be late for school!

"Nooo!!" I hastily zoomed back to school with a few minutes to spare, I stepped into the office and asked for my timetable, the red-headed lady looked at me, frowned, mumbled something and gave me my timetable. Then I walked out the door, gazing at the timetable I realized the first thing I had was gym! What an awesome subject to start with. That is how my adventure began. Taking long strides, swerving my head this way and that looking for the gym, hordes of unknown creatures were all over the place, I must have been going in circle all day long, I was getting dizzy and I really needed a rest so I stopped right there in the middle of the hall, breathing heavily. I decided to ask for help, "Excuse me? I need help…" everyone just walked past me acting as if they haven't heard a single word I had said, "Excuse me?" I tried again but no one stopped anything but a mere glance at me. Suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder, I jerked my head and saw the most gorgeous guy ever, reality drained out of me, and my legs turned to jelly, and he had the most dazzling golden eyes…" Hello?" he asked again, at that instant I snapped back into reality, "Um. Yes?" I replied.

"Did you need any help?"

"Oh yes please! I was looking for the gym…"

"On your left"

"Oh my god, arigato! By the way; what's your name?"

"Sesshoumaru..."

"Sesshoumaru," I repeated, liking the way the word rolled off on my tongue. Then he scurried off. I stepped up to the gigantic dark red gym doors, gave a big heave and pushed open the doors, a gust of wind went by whipping at my face. I walked in observing every inch of the gym, it was huge, and it beats every other gym I've ever seen. I confirmed with the gym teacher, Mrs. Coco, "Mrs.Kookoo head" is what everyone else seemed to call her that I was a new student. She nodded her head and we got straight to work. First of all they played tennis; I had my position ready, an open stance, swinging side to side preparing to move anywhere when needed, then the ball was served, I flew over to it and gave a hard swing the ball smashed onto the ground on the other side with a BOOM! That's how it was for the rest of the game. Later we had Judo, traditional martial arts, my opponent came running towards me, I quickly grabbed him and did the Uki-otoshi (a throwing technique) and sent him slamming onto the ground. Then after a few more techniques it was the end of the period. My next class was Japanese, sigh it has always been the most boring subject to me, you just sit there and listen to the teacher and take notes. I found it quickly for it was just right across the gym, on my way there I heard many people whispering about a girl named Kikyo and how she was "awesome and wonderful" at sports, they were talking about me and how good I was in sports… that is something I can't agree because I'm not really any good at sports. But nevertheless I needed to get to class; there I confirmed with the teacher again that I was new, he nodded and placed me a seat beside Sesshoumaru, I smiled at him and got to work picking up my brush and dipping it in ink I started to write kanji (Japanese characters). Occasionally Sesshoumaru and I would chat for a while in class, but once the teacher turned around we quickly became quiet. All through class I could feel people staring at me, and I could hear a few whispers here and there with my name "Kikyo" and "Sesshoumaru", but I didn't pay much attention to it.

I'm home now, and school was a blast, I got new friends very quick, already I'm the best "athlete" and smartest "nerd" or should I say "gifted person" in the school, I have always signed up for sports clubs, and for marathons. I can't wait until tomorrow!
