Hey everyone! I wrote this story a few years ago and never finished it. I have decided to get on with it and continue. First, I am going to go through and edit all the chapters I have written already. There may be some chapters that end up completely different, but I will try not to change too much. I believe that my writing style has changed in the past few years and I will do my best to bring you a great story. I'll be starting with the first chapter and will let you know in a note if the chapter has been edited. Hope you like this version as much as the first. Enjoy!
I'm also thinking about changing the title, any suggestions?

Innocence
Prologue
Snow Child
"Yukiko, you need to go find your father in Japan. You can't stay here with my relatives. They just don't understand," said a woman about thirty years old with glistening blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She was lying on a hospital bed holding a young girl's hand.
The young girl looked to be about fifteen and had waist length dark green hair and silver eyes with a darker silver pupil. She had pale skin and wasn't very tall for her age.
"Yes mother," said the girl in reply with a soft voice. She had tears in her soulful metallic eyes.
"Good. It's about time for me to go. I love you, sweetie," said Kyouni taking her last loving look at her young daughter.
"I know," replied the girl, starting to panic as the beeps of the heart machine slowed down. She watched her mother take her last breath before kissing her forehead and closing her eyes. The young girl took one last look at her newly deceased mother, before running out the door and scrambling down the hallway.
The nurses tried to stop her but she was small and could run faster. Just as she turned down another hallway, she tripped over her own feet sending her gliding to the floor. She reassembled herself before running again, ignoring the pain on her knees as well as in her heart.
Please let me know what you think of the story as I edit and update it. I appreciate positive reviews, as well as constructive criticism.
