Lake of life

~Prologue~

"Houshi!" she screamed. "Don't you know me?!"

He kept on striking her with his Shakujou. The metal rings clanged against each other as he knocked her aside and onto the ground. Using his newly found powers, he summoned vines out of thin air, and sealed her brother onto the nearest tree, still holding onto his chained sickle. As she got onto her feet, she saw what had happened.

"No!" she cried. "It can't be! Houshi, how could you?!"

He turned towards her, and started inching towards her, with his eyes glowing evil red. She kept on crawling away from his, but he kept on getting closer. She kept crawling away… until she had her back against a tree.

'This can't be good…' she thought.

Then he leaped in front her, and bit her on her shoulder, hard. She hissed in pain, and then kicked him far away from herself.

Blood stained his teeth, and was dripping from his mouth. She touched her new wound, and when she looked at her fingers, her fingers were covered with her own blood.

He stepped forward again, and raised his Shakujou high above his head, getting ready to deliver the final blow.

She stared at him in fear, and wished that it was only a nightmare. But she knew that it was all too real.

'He can't do this to me!' she thought.

He plunged the golden headed staff through her chest, piercing her heart. The staff went further into her flesh, and out again from behind. Vines appeared from the ground, and wrapped around everything; her body, her boomerang, and her nekomata. It sealed her in place with the Shakujou.

"You…" she managed to chock out. It was barely audible.

Then everything faded before her eyes, leaving behind a black space.
