Seiryuu
Den – Gaiden Two
Chapter
One: Night Abduction
Kinomoto
Miwa had come home a little later than she usually did from her study session
at her university. Miwa checked her
answering machine to find none. 'Maybe,
there's some e-mail,' she thought, "I'll check after I take a shower." Miwa felt dirty from the dried sweat on her
body because the weather was humid lately in Hawaii. Miwa was humming in the shower as she closed her eyes and thought
about various things.
'I wonder
how everyone is Japan? How are Yoko and
Amai? Hoshi? I wonder how everyone in the other world is? How is Mariko? I feel like I'm in a whole other world than everything and
everyone else,' thought Miwa as the water pounded her head, neck, and
back. She was getting a little homesick
for Japan. She was half-American and
thought that going to school in Hawaii for Political Science wouldn't be a
problem. However, it was starting to
take its toll on her, Miwa was hoping that she could go home for a visit soon
before the quarter let up. Miwa smiled
slightly because she realized that she did all her best thinking in the
shower. 'I must be nuts most people
sing in the shower,' she thought as she turned off the water.
Miwa put on
her white, terry cloth bathrobe and wrapped her long reddish-brown hair with a
towel, making a turban. She turned on
her computer and waited for it to boot up. There was a knock at the door. Actually, it was more like a pounding at the door. "COMING!" shouted Miwa. She peered through the little glass eyehole
to see who it was, but all she couldn't see a face. She could see a large, board, and suit-clad chest. The person at the door was huge, and Miwa
didn't want to open the door.
Suddenly,
the door was punched and broken in. Miwa screamed and fell back on to the floor. She quickly scrambled to get back to her feet. The towel fell off her hair. Miwa's breathing quickened, and her pulse
was racing. She could feel her
heartbeat pounding in her ears. Miwa
finally looked at the figure in front of her, "GET AWAY FROM ME!!!" she shrieked
in horror. The figure advanced towards
her and threw some of the furniture aside. Miwa backed away slowly, and then bolted for the kitchen to reach the
backdoor to get out of the condo. Miwa
fumbled with the lock and chain on the backdoor with shaky hands. The massive figure silently moved towards
her. Miwa managed to yank the door
open, and she bolted for the white sandy beach outside. The moonlight was shining off the Pacific
Ocean giving Miwa a chance to see where she was running. Miwa didn't care; she just had to get away
from the person who was chasing her.
"SOMEONE
HELP ME!" cried Miwa in a her desperate panic. The figure followed her outside of her condo. He began to pursue her again with incredible speed. Miwa turned back slightly to look at him
again, 'Like a wild animal!' she thought as she picked up some speed. It was too late. She wasn't fast enough. The figure leaped into the air and grabbed her. He clamped his massive hand over her mouth
cutting her air supply and preventing her from screaming. Miwa passed out from the lack of oxygen, but
before she closed her eyes a blue light had surrounded them.
The light
faded away, and the Seiryuu no Miko was gone.
