~ Hot. So hot. Why is it so hot? Red? Fire! The houses!
The people! Screaming, crying, calling for help. "Mother?" a young woman,
about the age of 14 shouted through the flames. Her once waist long dark
blue hair now singed to her shoulders. Her beautiful dark blue eyes filled
with worry, face covered in soot. "Mother where are you?" she called, once
again. She looked around, gasping in shock, seeing her house still
standing. Lifting the skirt of her torn kimono she sprinted to it, jumping
over the bodies of her dead friends. " Sasuka! Miso! Usagi! Mother! Are you
here?" She yelled, running through the house. She could faintly hear crying
coming from her mothers room. Running in, she could have sworn she walked
into a nightmare. Her mother lay there in the center of the room in a
puddle of her own blood. "Mother!" she shouted, running to her mothers
side. Taking a deep breath, she turned her mother over and gasped. Her
mother had been stabbed multiple times and was bleeding profusely. A soft
hand weakly grasped hers. " My daughter," her mother said weakly, "Take
your sisters and run. Get away from here before he comes back." The young
women's eyes filled up with tears. "Who did this to you? Mother, who is
he?" she asked, crying. Her mother smiled softly. "The Battosai.." Her head
lulled to the side, taking her last breath. "No.MOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!"~
"MOTHER!!!" Feiona screamed, shooting out of bed. Resting her head in her hands she took a deep breath. ~Just a dream. It was just a dream. ~ Her eyes filled up with tears. " I miss you mother. It's been 5 years, but I did what you told me to. I got Sasuka, Miso, and Usagi and ran. Far away from our home." She said through tears. "Usagi is 6 today. She looks so adorable with her bouncing sky blue locks and shinning blue eyes. She is so innocent and free. It's not the same with Sasuka, Miso and me. We remember that day so clearly. Your dead and it's all his fault." Her eyes narrowed. ~ Battosai. You ruined my life. I will get my revenge. ~
Getting up, Feiona walked over to Sasuka and Miso's bedroom. When she entered she smiled at the mess that littered the floor. Looking at two oldest of her three sisters, she her eyes filled with tears. ~They cried themselves to sleep again. ~ " Why can't you two make any friends?" She said sitting on the edge of Miso's bed. "If you did you wouldn't have to worry about me or another nightmare. You wouldn't have to remember mother's death." " Then why don't you?" a voice said. Feiona looked over to see Sasuka sitting up in her bed. " Why don't I what?" she said innocently. Sasuka's eyes narrowed. "You know what. Make friends or better yet a boyfriend. YOU are the one who needs to get their mind off mom. I know that you have been waking up at night screaming because you are reliving mom's death in your dreams. You need to find something to get your mind off that." Feiona sighed sadly. " You know way too much for your age, Sasuka." Her eyes hardened. "And as for me 'finding something to my mind of mother' I am. I have to take care of you, Miso and Usagi." She said calmly. " I have also been looking for information on the Battosai's ware bouts." Sasuka was about to comment when she saw the silhouette of a man behind Feiona. Not being able to find her voice, she made motions behind Feiona to try and warn her. "You don't have to look any farther, Avalon." A dark voice said. "I'm right here."
