Entering Tokyo
I was eight when my parents died. Me and my sister Saya. Oh, and my cousin Ryou and our uncles friend Keiichiro, though he wasn't in the lab when it happened lived. My sister was three. It had happened so fast, I was in the main part with my aunt and uncle and parents. They were looking at combining human and animal DNA, though I learned that much later. They were looking at a fossil of some strange creature. Then there was a flash and then fire. The fossil came alive and it was looking at me with its scary eyes. I was sure I was going to be killed by it. Then it turned away and in the flames I saw the scared eyes of Ryou. I looked away and saw Saya. I started crawling to her limp body. When I got there I fell into peaceful oblivion, not noticing how the flames didn't touch me, nor my sister.
Ugh, when would this flight end. I thought as me and Saya were over the Pacific Ocean. I couldn't get the pictures of the creature out of my head. Was it really only five years ago when our whole family was wiped out. Four years since I last heard from Ryou and Keiichiro. I looked over at the sleeping form of my sister. Five years since I learned everything. About my mother, about the Project, about the Chimera. Now I was leaving America and the pain this country still gives. I'm now going home to Japan. I lay down on my seat and fall asleep, hoping that I wouldn't dream of flames.
"Yuki wake up." I opened my eyes to see Saya in front of me. "We have to get off the plane." I sat up and we left the plane.
Tokyo was a huge place. I looked around at the busy city as we rode in a taxi to the home we used to live at with our parents before the incident. It was right by the woods. When we got there it looked the same as when we were last there. We got out of the taxi and got our stuff and went inside.
It was a small two story house but plenty big enough for me and my sister. She went to put her stuff in her room. Tomorrow we would be going to school. I went up stairs and put my stuff in my room. It was the same as it was when we left. The walls were still pale lavender. I still had a white wood bed with a white cover on top with purple flowers on it. A white window seat looked out into the dense woods. On the seat was a music box I got from my mother before she died. I walked over and picked it up. On it was two people dancing. I opened it and in it was a necklace with silver petals and a bright blue gem in the center. I put it on. Then I went to the bed and fell asleep.
