Kayato wandered, through the brush of the vast forest. She strayed
into the place she first time she saw San
"Tsunami, out of the whole forest this is the most gorgeous place. And I feel a presence, something special must have happened here," She gracefully leaped off of Tsunami and started to nuzzle him.
"Oh, I'm just imagining things, but it sure feels familiar," Kayato walked up to the water. The water had a bizarre shine, but yet it was cold and translucent. She reached down to carelessly stroke the silky water, but something caught her eye. Inside the water was a footprint. It looked like a deer made it but this deer had a different foot; it looked like many hooves in one. She looked at it, almost like she was drawn to it. Then it struck, the coldness she felt earlier that day, and it hit her right in the heart; wounding the soul of her heart. She screamed in anguish. Edging back to Tsunami. Every inch Kayato takes, every breath she breathes, she felt she is going to give way to the pain, to death. Kayato tripped, fell onto the ground face forward. She felt her essence leaving her body, mind, and heart. She closed her eyes and with her final breath she thought, this is the last of me.
With her eyes still closed she came to consciousness.
"I must be in the other world all the other people talked about," Kayato thought. She opened her eyes and saw a familiar face looking down at her; Kayato left her eyes half opened. Then she realized that it was Hoshi. Her eyes went wide; she sat straight up. Ignoring the short, sharp stabbing pains all over her flesh. She heard some one yelling for Ashitaka.
"Maybe I am not dead maybe I was only dreaming it," Kayato thought. Kayato let her head fall back onto the pillow; she was weak with an aching body. She still kept her eyes half opened. It felt like an eternity until she felt her father hugging her.
"Kayato!! Kayato!!!!! I am so glad you are alright!" Ashitaka yelled. Kayato opened her eyes, and she could she San, with an eased expression on her face, shrinking back into the shadows. Kayato smiled.
"Father," Kayato whispered, "father, I am alright. And please can you let me sleep again, I am really sore and exhausted, and if I ever die in my sleep," a weak smile flash across Ashitaka's face, "I wanted to tell you I love you," she leaned in close and in her quietest voice she could muster she said so no one but Ashitaka could hear "and tell that to San too," Ashitaka laid down Kayato, and she went off to sleep.
Kayato woke up with cheerful sunbeams bouncing off of her face. She rose off of the bed; still a little groggy from the last time she was in the forest. She walked out of her house still in her pajamas. She found Ashitaka feeding Tsunami and Yakul.
"Dad, I've been thinking about this. I want to go find you sister in that village you are from," Kayato said. Ashitaka eyes went wide.
"You can't Kayato, I am dead to them forever. Plus whom else are you going to find to take you. I certainly can't go," Ashitaka said.
"Don't worry I have it all planed out. San will take me," a sly smirk flashed upon Kayato's face.
"How are you going to get San to leave her forest?" inquired Ashitaka.
"I have my ways," with those words said Kayato headed into the house to change. .
