Chapter 1
The wind blew slowly through the great fields of the countryside, rays of sunlight shined in a clear blue sky. Trees and other plants began to grow and the spirits of the forest appeared on the branches of trees shaking their heads; making a rattling noise throughout the forest.
In clearing of the forest San, Moror, and the pups were drinking from the lake. Moro suddenly looked up at the sky. She began to breath heavily and growled, but suddenly long slimy worms began to come alive and consume Moro.
San looked over and screamed, while the pups got in front of her. Moro was becoming a demon monster. Her flesh was consumed by the worms all over her body, but then she howled up at the sky. The pups and San ran from her, while Moro took after them.
"San listen, the Great Forest Spirit will take my life from me. Even though I too have a bullet within my body eating away at my bones." San began to think
She knew her mother's fate was going to turn out to be either or. Even as they were chased she knew that she must end her mother's life. Killing her mother, would be so hard; She would be killing a true mother who raised her since she was an infant.
"San what are you going to do?" one of the pups asked
"I'm going to do what she wanted me to do." Replying as she took out her knife.
Tears flowed from her eyes as she aimed her knife at her mother. Moro was getting close to them, and then it fell silent. San threw her knife and her mother fell to the ground, as the pups stopped in their tracks, digging up dirt.
San jumped off and ran toward her mother, as the demon disappeared and ate away at her flesh and bones. Soon a purple smoke began to rise into the air, San fell to her knees. Her tears fell to the ground as she cried for her mother's death, but couldn't let go of her so fast.
"Come San." the other pup said
She climbed back on and took her knife back. Suddenly they found themselves near Ashitaka's Emishi village. They headed towards it and saw Ashitaka coming back from somewhere on Yakul. She and the other pups ran after him and caught up with him.
"Ahitaka!" she called waving
He looked up to see her and met her and the pups half way. As she climbed off the pup as he dismounted Yakul. San seemed quiet, but then smile as she faced Ashitaka. The pups laid down and Yakul joined them in the sun, while San and Ashitaka sat by the lake.
"Where is your mother?" he asked looking around
San was silent, but thought about what she just did to her. Tears formed in her eyes as she buried her face in her hands. Ashitaka looked concerned and picked her head up with his hand.
"She's gone. I had to kill her, she became a demon monster. Long before she knew that this day would come and I ended her life." whispering
"San I'm so sorry, but what are you going to do about the forest? Who is going to protect it?" he asked
"The forest has been flourishing. My mother along with the Ape Clan, have been planting new trees. Though I've heard from the leader of the Ape Clan that Iron Town has been rebuilt bigger and better. More and more trees have begun to go down and I need your help to stop it. This is for my mother." Replying slowly.
"I'll be happy to help you. Where do we begin?" he asked
"We have to go to see the leader of the Ape Clan to ask how to get to Iron Town." She said getting to her feet.
