Flames everywhere
Flames everywhere. What's happening? Where is mother? Father? Fading in and out of consciousness, Lina tries to search for her family. She looks up and sees him. "I…will kill….you," she barely utters as she passes out at his feet.
Lina has now just turned 15. It has been 13 long years since the fire that took her family. She has since lived in the Craftsman Village. She knows a lot about weapons, and defense items. But as much knowledge she knows about these items, she still would rather use two small fans. Today is the day that she will set out to find her home country, her home where maybe she has some family still alive. She packs some blankets, a little bit of food, and she packs her first aid kit. The only bad thing about being a one person team is that she can't really heal herself in the middle of fighting.
She puts her supplies on her wolf Himoto and gets ready to set out. She takes one more look back to the village that took care of her all those years, the village that accepted her and didn't turn their back on her, the village that didn't shut her out. She looks at it and a tear comes down, because she knows she may never see it again.
While she was riding on Himoto's back, Lina wondered what she would find when she got there. Would she find people who have been searching for her for a long time? Or would she find people who hate her. No matter what she found, she would know that Himoto would be right there beside her.
As she found a place to set up camp, she unpacked and set up a bed for herself. She knows this wouldn't be the easiest thing in the world, and she would have to hurt people along the way. She just wishes she wouldn't have to. As she looks to go find some food, she thinks to herself where should she go first. Maybe someone would find her first. She really hoped that would be the case.
When she got back to the camp site and after she ate, she went to bed. She dreamed of a time a while ago where she had met someone.
"Hello Mister Kakashi. I am Houki from the Craftsman village. This is my daughter Lina and her wolf Himoto." Kakashi looked Lina over and asked her, "How old are you, little one," the masked stranger asked Lina.
"I…I'm…5 years old sir," she said blushing. Lina wasn't very social with new people. But even though she didn't talk much with this masked stranger she knew she could trust him.
As she woke up from her dream, she wondered if she would ever meet this man again. She wanted to see him again. To see the way he protected her. To see him would make him feel comfortable again. She felt like she could really trust him. What if she found him there, would he remember her?
