Sleeping Hime

************************************************************************

Chapter 4: Kikyous' Past

Kikyous' thoughts, " Finally I'll get my revenge after all these years of suffering to a heartless Hime and warlord.".

"How could've I thought that the Himes' father was the one who had attacked my village and forced my mother into selling me as a servant.", Kikyou thought.

Kikyou made a fist and punched it into her pillow.

" How could my own mother do this to me?!", Kikyou screamed.

" Why?!?!?!?!?", Kikyou screamed again.

" Why?!?!", Kikyou was sobbing tears of sorrow thinking of her long almost forgotten past. The past she almost never had. The mother she almost didn't have. The siblings she had cared for a long time ago.

******************************************************************************

We are in a poor village, probably Kikyous' village. The village was called " Peace". The villagers dressed in the most raggedy clothes. With patches and dirt. In a distance we see a girl. She has long raven black hair, a white and red kimono with also a couple of patches over the knee. She is holding a doll. And farther behind her was a couple of little children probably aging from 1 to 6 years old. What we now see was Kikyous' family and over to the next right a distance we see a tired woman also wearing raggedy clothes. This woman was Kikyous' mother.

" Ma, we're hungry.", her children cried out to their mother.

" I know my children, all we have is a handful of rice and I cannot feed you all.", the mother said gently, " and it is not enough to feed all of us.".

At hearing this Kikyou replied, " Mother, I'll go without a meal tonight and let the little ones eat mine.".

" Oh, you don't have too, I'll go without.", her mother replied.

" No mother its o.k., you need the energy more than I do.", Kikyou said with a hint of " I'm sure so please take it" tone.

" Thank- you my daughter.", her mother said.

But after that conversation a cloud of dust kicked up and they heard many sounds of horses trotting across the path to their village.

" Everybody hide! It is the warlord of the Fujimori Kingdom come'n to wreck our village of the Tokyo Kingdom!", said a man.

" Kikyou-oneesama I'm scared!", cried her siblings. But Kaede being the most scared.

" Don't worry lets hide in that shack!", Kikyou said as they all ran to the shack, hiding from the raging warlord.

They all made it in time to the shelter. But the destruction of the village was total war. Leaving the village poorer than before.

" Oh………..!", cried Kikyous' mother, " what are we going to do, we are now twice as poor!".

Hearing the cries of their mother they all cried. Each one sobbing louder than the next. The villagers stared at them, but knowing that they were just poor now but they are poorer. Each one of the staring villagers were helping them knowing that this was all they could do.

" I'm so sorry Reiko-chan.", it was a friend of Kikyous' mother.

" Huh?….*sniffs….*sniffs……..no……..you shouldn't be it was not your fault.", Kikyous' mother replied.

The family was staring at the young man. Was he a helper sent by the gods or did he had a motive?
