Black Silky Ribbon

Finding of the ribbon

Life is boring a girl thought one, gloomy morning. This girl had flowing blonde hair with sharp blue eyes. Her name—Shii Tama. It was a rainy day in Tokyo and there was nothing to do. All of her friends had gone to Kyoto the night before, leaving Shii home with her parents and younger sister. She was currently perched on her window sill watching the rain fall and the lighting flashing. Shii heard the news going on and caught bits and pieces of it. We have an important news update. The body of 15 year old Kyari Shindo was found early this morning. Police say that she was mugged and stabbed but other people say otherwise. Police also said they found shreds of Ribbon in her hands. Now that caught Shii's attention. She walked into her sister's room and leaned against the doorway as the news report finished. Her body was found by Kyoto. Could this be the work of a serial killer? More news on at 10. A black ribbon? Was it rough? Smooth? Silky?...It's just a ribbon, why would anybody want it? Dammit! Shii had her head bowed so she could think. She broke out of her thoughts to hear Riiko talking. "that's scary! If I find a black ribbon I'm running away as fast as I can!" Shii rolled her eyes at this. "Your just paranoid that the killer will come find you!" with that, Shii launched herself on her sister and started tickling her. "If I find it, I'm going to bring it home and keep it!" Riiko looked at her sister like she was crazy. "But…black means death" Shii gave her sister the "Duh" look. Riiko rolled her eyes and pushed her sister off of her. Shii left her room and back into her own room to see one of her friends on messenger, she walked over to her sterio and put in Tokio Hotel—Ready, Set, Go and walked over to her lap top.

She went in and changed into sweat pants and a sweatshirt and grabbed her shoes. she walked downstairs and saw her parents in the kitchen. Her mother noticed her and called her in. "Shii…would you go to the market for me?" Shii looked at her mom funny. "I…guess…" her mother smiled and handed her the list and the money. "Only get what's on the list" she said. Her father was reading the paper and hadn't noticed her yet. "bye…I'll be back" her father grunted and her mother went back to making dinner. As Shii left her house, she started walking down the sidewalk. She observed her surroundings and looked what was on the list. Tofu, noodles, milk, water, sweets, pocky; Shii rolled her 

eyes but made her way to the market. She walked past the park and noticed something from the corner of her eye. The Ribbon! She noted. She ran across the street and to the ribbon. She knelt down and picked it up off the ground. It was in a small, black box with weird markings on it. She opened it and there was the ribbon. She picked it up and it felt silky and…Brand new? But didn't they say that they found some shreds of it in Kyari's fingers? What the hell is going on?! She thought. She quickly put it in the box and put it in her bag and hurried along to the market. Little did she know, from the moment she picked up that ribbon, her life would change forever.
