Bloodshed
By: Cortney Nelson
Almost before a child of my kind learns to walk, she learns to hate. She learns of war. She learns of the race that calls itself the youkai. She that they are untrustworthy. She learns to fear the amber eyes of their royal family even though she will probably never see them.
What she never learns is how they fighting began. No, that is forgotten. Instead she learns that they murdered her family and her loved ones. She learns that these enemies are evil, that their ways are not hers and that they would kill her if they could.
That is all she learns.
That is all I have learned.
Days and weeks and years, and all I know is bloodshed. I hum songs my mother once sang to me and wish for the peace they promise. It's a peace my mother has never known, nor her mother before her.
How many generations? How many of our soldiers have fallen?
And why?
Meaningless hatred: the hatred of an enemy without a face. No one knows why we fight; they only know we will continue until we win a war it is too late to win, until we have avenged to many dead to avenge, until no one can remember peace anymore, even in songs.
Days and weeks and years.
My brother never returned last night.
Days and weeks and years.
How long until their assasins find me?

Heir to the Throne
Me: okay...so how did everyone like it? Is it any good? This is just the prologue... sorry to disappoint you all (If anyone bothers to read this....). Really. I promise I will write more.
Please Review!!!! Please?
I won't make threats so that I know you review because you want to. Not because I threatened you. (Either that or I am so pathetic you felt sorry for me and reviewed...but I will leave that thought out...)
Until later! Now REVIEW!
