The Goddess Of Death
Chapter 1: Introduction
5... The number of friends she used to process. The exact number of trust worthy people she used to call 'friends'. These 5 people cared for her, and she did them too. She was happy and overjoyed at the time when she could say she had five friends who cared enough to talk to her and play with her. But 5 is also the number of friends she lost; the exact number of friends who have now forgotten and left her. She is alone, and that's why she has adapted. 5 precious friends, but 5 different knives which stabbed at her heart when they forgot her.
But she couldn't blame them; after all, she was not even alive. And if she were to try to befriend them, they would find out her secret and hate her. She did not want this. So she secluded herself, not befriending anyone, loving only who she thought wouldn't leave her. Because her job included taking away loved ones from people. Surely, no one would want to be friends with practically a murderer...
4... The number of different worlds she knows and visits. Unknown to humans an other beings, only her species, the Gods and Death itself could travel through. Those 4 worlds consisted of:
Utopia: a land of peace and prosperity. The land is similar to Earth, but its inhabitant is different; strange plants, animals and alien beings inhabit the land, but it's at peace and the careful balance of life is as stable as millennium ago.
Earth: corrupted, but peaceful at the same time; the human race is divided and their existence is linked to other animals. But the selfish humans dominate and manipulate each other as well as hurt and abuse other innocent beings. And there are few humans who help each other and fight for peace and justice.
The Afterlife: a dark place. All life is given and taken in this land. It is home to the Barrens; evil and corrupted souls of beings that once roamed Earth or Utopia. Their strength varies but it is said that the stronger the soul, the stronger the Barren. Barrens are locked in the darkness of the Afterlife, but some escape to roam the Afterlife free or they escape to other worlds which are inter-connected. Death and his minions live here as well, together with the endless amount of souls.
And lastly, The Heavens: this is where all the Gods live. She had visited once to attend to official business when it seemed her life really started...
Four very different worlds, but all connected by new life and death. Although, only a few species, like Death, herself and Gods could travel to each world- meaning all humans, animals and aliens, including Barrens didn't know about the existence of each of the neighboring world.
3... the exact number who hated her and hurt her intentionally for personal reasons.
These people hurt her many times, each time deepening the hole in her heart, making it harder to feel her existence; making herself feel her meaning and purpose slip through her fingers. Three was the number which represents her deepest regrets, fears, insecurities and shameful events that lived as humans. She deeply loved each person, but after time, they had come to hate her too; hurting her for reasons she is not even in control of.
They didn't love her the same way... no; they'd rather 'love' to see her die in an agonizing death in front of their eyes...
2... The number of people she would risk her life for; her mother and sister. She would protect these helpless people from Barrens and anyone who wanted to hurt them. These people lived within Earth, living a normal human life while she would fight bloody battles right in front of them, but they would not see; her job included humans ignorance to her kind. So she would watch them living... breathing while she suffered alone.
1... The number of people it would take to heal her broken and torn heart. She had jet to meet this person, but she'd herd of him and awaited him anxiously. But after 12 painful years of waiting she gave up on all hope and let go of that emotion just like others long ago; like care, love, hope, happiness and joy. The only emotions left were a few that represented sadness and sorrow, because without them she wouldn't feel human, even if she isn't, she once was.
Also her emotionless and lack of attachment and trust towards others let herself become less hurt and betrayed; this way it hurt less when they'd leave her. Because they would, it was an eventuality, not a possibility...
0... The number of people who loved her and would protect and care for her. The reason was simple; she was a Shinigami- a Goddess of Death, servant and assistant of the Reaper also known as Lord Death.
She was a Goddess of Death; she was Hinata Hyuga.
