[REVAMPED]
Kurumi's Past
A wind had brewed, the sky a light blue as clouds floated along with the breeze. The soft gale stirred the plants in the garden, the flower's soft petals fluttered under the wind. They shun a bright green in the bright sunlight. A small girl crouched by the flowerbed at the end of garden, her small white sundress pressing against her knees. She stared at the black hollyhocks as their petals elegantly flapped in the breeze. The little girl's eyes were blood red with black pupils like little black holes. She smiled as the black flowers stopped moving, patting the flowers gently, being careful not to damage them.
"Kimiko, your Fathers leaving now for his business trip, come say goodbye" Kimiko's mother called as the tinted glass door slid open to reveal their japanese style household. The father had thought that they might feel a little more at home if they had a home similar to the one they had in Japan.
"Ok momma!" Kimiko picked one of the flowers from the garden and ran inside. Her father waiting by the door with two large suitcases next to him. He opened his arms as Kimiko jumped into his embrace, hugging her.
"Papa! Come home soon please!" Kimiko pleaded, her father sighing in reply.
"I will get home as soon as possible sweetie, don't worry. Oh? What do you have there?" His gaze drifted to the black flower in Kimiko's hand.
"Its for you Papa! I grew them with Momma!" he took the flower from her, letting her down as he did so.
"I will take good care of this, so i won't forget my little Kimiko." He smiled, putting the flower in his pocket. He rubbed her head, Kimiko giving a sigh of enjoyment. The father then checked his watch and frowned.
"Alright i gotta go, my flights leaving in an hour." Kimiko's father gave his wife a hug and kiss goodbye and exited the house. The sound of his grey Isuzu started up and drove out of the driveway.
"Hey sweetheart? You want to got get something to eat?" Her mother gave Kimiko a knowing look as Kimiko hugged her stomach nodding.
20min later...
Kimiko's mother pulled up at the fast food restaurant, unbuckling Kimiko from her car seat. Kimiko looked at the sign of the restaurant, confused by what was written.
"momma, what does that say?" Kimiko pointed to the restaurant sign of their name.
"hm, i'm not sure sweetie, your father would know, he knows how to read chinese." they had been to the restaurant before under Kimiko's father's recommendation. They waited at the till for their table, a Tv broadcasting something Kimiko couldn't understand on a news. It took about 5 minutes for the waitress to find some open seats, the place being packed at the time. The seats were near the window facing east, another Tv broadcasting the same thing as the one at the entrance.
10min later...
Their food had arrived after about 10min of waiting. Kimiko had ordered a plate with ginger covered beef and noodles (her favourite) and her mother had ordered a hot plate with many different meats and veggies.
"It's too bad Papa had to go to work while we were on vacation. He would have loved to have ordered some teriyaki and chicken." Kimiko's mother stated, pigging out on her hot plate. Kimiko stared at her plate for about a minute, thinking about the few days they'd spent together until an hour ago or so. Then something caught her eye, on the Tv screen. Breaking news, as the Chinese woman was frantically speaking about something, then the power shut off. The building went dark enough that seeing your own food was hard. Kimiko turned around to look at the window. A rumbling sound grew more and more as the ground tore itself apart and standing was near impossible. Kimiko's heart raced faster and faster until she looked out the restaurant window again just in time to see the giant black and purple mass tear through the walls like paper, and everything went dark...
Hours later...
Kimiko's eyes shot open as a loud crash of rocks hit the ground nearby, the dust making her cough. Struggling to get up, she pressed against the destroyed ground beneath her, hearing it grumbling as she put more pressure on it. Managing to sit up, she looked around the area, her eyes almost finished adjusting to the light, seeing what used to be buildings and bridges now destroyed and their remnants tosses hundreds of meters from where the structure once stood. The clouds in the sky circling back into one another as a huge circular opening had broken through from whatever had caused this destruction. She tried to get back onto her feet.
"Aaagh!" she fell back to the ground from an agonizing pain from her left leg. Her face winced from the pain. She sat up on a rock and took a look at her leg. The spot on her leg had a massive bruise and was bent a bit,bleeding from the side. She closed her eyes, stifling, trying to keep herself from crying.
"M-Mommy?" she said weakly, looking around the wreckage that was left of the restaurant. Bodies and blood lay bleeding, decapitated, and splattered on and under the destroyed ceiling. She spotted her mother's distinct shoes from under of a vent, a few feet away.
"Mommy!" she crawled her way over to her mother, starting to get a better view of her mother under the vent, and immediately regretting getting closer. Her mother lay under the vent, with the broken opening of the vent impaling her stomach. The red liquid running down her sides and her dress, her eyes lifeless, staring up to the sky.
Kimiko's heart started to race faster and faster at the sight of her dead mother. Her head beginning to spin making her feel sick. She felt like screaming at the sight, but she hit her leg against the vent, the pain quickly bringing her back into reality. She hugged her legs closer, resting her head against them, she felt like she wanted to die right there, tears running down her cheeks as she cried…

This chapter, as the top of the chapter kinda says, was revamped which meant I fixed some parts I felt could have been fixed. My friend had pointed out some things about the chapter that needed maintenance which I took note of.
