Unwanted Attention

"Amaya, will ye go out and pick some herbs, we are starting to run low." A young woman who appeared to be around the age of thirty-five, but in reality was around 350 years old.

"Hai, okaa-san!" Said a child, who was not really a child at all, but still none-the-less when compared to her mother. She looked to be the age of twenty, but was really 200 years of age. She had long wavy black hair that was to be envied by everyone in her village. Her deep blue eyes shown with happiness, that had yet to be corrupted by the evils of the world around her. The only time she would step foot out of the village was to gather herbs for her okaa-san, other than that it was only the males residing in the village that were allowed to leave.

Soon she got to the herb garden that her mother and she had planted, and started to pick while she reflected on what her okaa-san had told her of the world that lay beyond here. She said that their village was different from others. They were a village of reiki youkai, a very powerful breed of youkai but very rare and small in number. That was why only males were allowed to travel beyond the village, for the females were needed for breeding. What made then so powerful, powerful enough to be hunted long ago which is why they are low in numbers, was that they could manipulate their reiki at will. Even when unarmed, they possess enough power to take out a small army. They were the youkai version of mikos; their reiki can be formed into many different things. Some could transform their reiki in different elements, others could form weapons, and some could use their reiki for healing.

Her okaa-san had told her that 400 years ago they their kind had become so endangered that there were only 12 of them left. She said that to survive they made a deal with the Lord of the Western Lands, Lord Toga. The deal, in exchange for protection, was that if ever needed they would assist the Western lands, be it they needed healing, or more warriors for a war, but it was agreed upon that they could not call upon any of the females, only males.

Once she was done picking the herbs, she started to head back but the sound of a twig snapping in the distance stopped her. Setting her basket down, she scanned the area around her. Finding nothing she picked her basket back up and headed towards her home, when all of a sudden she was snatched from behind. She was about to let out a scream but it was muffled by a clawed hand covering her mouth. Doing the only thing she could think of she bit the hand. The hand that had previously covered her mouth let go but before she could do anything the hand hit her and she was then unconscious.

Sometime later, she awoke in a dank cave, with nothing covering her. Her body was sore, every muscle seemed strained, and she was bleeding from various areas. The one area that caught her attention was between her thighs, and the only thing she could think of was that she had been rapped when she was unconscious. With that thought, she screamed and didn't stop screaming until her body couldn't take it anymore and she passed out.

The next time she awoke, she recognized that she was in a hut. Looking around she saw that it was the hut her family lived in. Thinking it was only a bad dream, but very realistic, she went to get up. That was when she realized that it was not a dream, her body was sore, but all her wounds had been cleaned and bandaged, and there was a clean white yukata on her body. Before she could think about the situation anymore, her okaa-san and otou-san came in. Before she could stop it, she burst into tears. Her okaa-san rushed forward to go comfort her while her otou-san just sat beside her and put his hand on her shoulder while he broke the silence.

"What happened?"

"I thi, hiccup, think I w, hiccup, was raped." She sobbed, and just having to say it out loud made it more of a reality for her, which just caused her to cry more tears.

Seeing her break into tears, he decided to embrace her and wait for the tears to stop flowing. After a while the tears slowed down and when he looked down he saw that his daughter had cried herself to sleep. His mate put her back into bed, and then they silently left the room.

"We will have to tell Lord Toga that one of our own was raped, he will need to know." Kasumi said with sadness in her voice, while thinking why it had to be her daughter that had to go through this.

"Hai, Lord Toga will want to know, was there any scent in the cave where you found her that could help us find who did this to her?" Hiroshi asked, sharing the same sadness that his mate felt for their daughter.

"Iie, there was not, which was the weird thing, there was not scent at all, not even her own."

"Still, Lord Toga will have to be told. I will get a group together and we will set off for the castle. Take care of our daughter mate; she will need your support, for if she ends up pregnant she will need all the help she can get. I will return to you and our daughter as soon as I can, fare well."

"Ja ne." With that being said, Hiroshi went to go prepare to leave, while his mate, Kasumi went to watch over their daughter. They both knew that nothing would ever be the same after this day, and how right they were.
