Lost

Prologue


Munich, 1943

Darkness fought against light in the form of bodiless shadows and flickering flames. The gentle fire cast light upon the two figures before it, each staring into its depts. They stood, two silhouettes, one large, the other slim; one old, the other young' father and daughter. But at that moment, in the sparsely lit room decorated by tugs and artifacts of all origins, there was no affection; instead a dark air loomed between them, a wall that had yet to be breached.

"Mister Hanz has agreed to escort you to America."

The voice was deep and demanded respect and was without doubt that of the father. The figure beside him stiffened, turning cerulean blue eyes unto him. The young woman stared at the person that for so long had been the sole recipient of her respect, this man that she called father. The years had taken their toll on him, turning blond hair white and bright eyes dull. As she regarded him, only anger was sown into her heart.

"And under what conditions am I to go?"

Silence passed between them, broken only by the quiet crackling of the fire before them. The young woman of 16 stared at her fathers profile as he seemed to struggle for words. Finally, he turned towards her and whispered the one word she had been expecting:

"Marriage"

She turned away from him, replying: "I will not go."

The older man turned towards her, eyes alight with fury. He had many deals and promises so that she could escape to America. And now she stood before him refusing her help, putting her life in danger for her petty dignity. Did she truly think she would be left here in Germany, where the war was getting more and more violent?

"I will not listen to such nonsense, Naru. Listen to me my daughter, Germany is no longer safe. See what the war has done to your brother!"

"Do not bring Gaara into this!"

At that moment, Naru hated her father more than anything. Her brother's death had hit her hard, creating a void that had yet to be filled in her heart. Gaara…he had lost his life because of this god-forsaken war...he had not deserved such a death. She closed her mind off such thoughts before saying:

"Gaara was brave; his memory should not be brought up in this discussion. I will not go to America merely because unrealistic idealists have decided to exterminate a whole race!"

Naru could sense the anger that escaped her father like waves. Her father supported with all his might Hitler's regime. He believed in the idealism of superior and inferior races. And for that she hated him.

"Listen here girl, those filthy Jews are underneath us. The Aryan race is the sole creator of this society."

"This war is nonsense! There are no superior races, father!"

Her father stood silent for a moment, the fire creating red tints in his pale hair. In that moment, all the stress he had gone through was shown on his face. He looked at her straight in the eye and she saw all the hatred he harbored for her.

"It is during moments like this that I wish you had died in the place of your brother. You will leave by morning."

And then she was left staring after his retreating back as a veil of sadness enveloped her. This was what the war had brought her; death and betrayal. She turned to walk out of the room and came to face one of her mother's antique mirrors.

She stared at the version of herself, trapped in a fake world. She stared at the blond hair that had been curled to perfection, the star tiling blues eyes that caught the interest of so many, the whisker-like birthmarks that gave her an exotic look; she stared at all those aspects that identified her as herself.

She quickly turned away from the mirror and walked out of the room with a heavy heart. As she walked out of the room stray tears rolled down her cheeks. She felt a sense of loss…for her brother, for her father, for he country…for herself. For she realized that not only was she all that was close to her, but she was also loosing herself.

She was lost
