Blood red painted the sky, leaking into the oncoming black called night. The trees whistled to the oncoming storm. A bandaged hand held onto a branch, and the face of a sharp looking man gave a glimmer

of a smile

Chapter one : Waking from the sleep

My eyes opened to the black, and in a moment I panicked. Who am I? I thought, as my hands grasped the softness around me. My mind did not know what to do but my hands did and soon a shining sliver of light penetrated my haven. My eyes closed as it hit my face intensly. Suddenly I felt myself being pulled from the shelter I once had inhabited. My body was being clutched and my face was buried into a niche of a shoulder.

"Saya…" A mans voice echoched softly. It melted into me like it was butter and tickled my heart. One hand held to me as another was cut by a piece of metal hanging from the roof. The man lifted it to his mouth and let the blood slide down into his throat. With that same bloody hand he lifted my neck. Gazing at me with his piercing blue eyes he put his mouth on mine. In a rush I remembered who I was.

"Haji…" was all I could say as his lips left mine. He looked at once more and kissed me again.

"Haji…I thought you were dead?" I whispered as he carried my body to a tree. I lifted a finger and faintly pointed it at him.

"No, I did not die." as he whispered die, he set me down and I noticed I was wearing no clothes and that my hair was splayed all over the place. My eyes widened in embarrassment and I clasped my hands to my chest.

"Did you see!?" I asked Haji. he nodded and I moaned. Then I rembered. I had gone into my thirty year sleep wearing my uniform.

"Why am I naked!?" I shrieked. Hajii gave a half smile and threw me a black dress with long sleeves. Turning around he motioned for me to put it on. Pulling on the head I noticed his ribbon wasn't on.

"Haji! Where is your ribbion." he turned around and blushed. I had only half on. He held out an arm and in it was a pink rose that had dried. His ribbion was tied to it.

"Saya."

"Hajii…"
