A Start of a New Friendship
Morning came. The sky turned scarlet as the sun slowly rise. On a nearby river, a young girl dipped a large pot on the river, letting the fresh water get in. Sweat dripped down from her pale face to the ground. It's part of her morning chores and she came all the way from a village faraway. Everyday this brunette-haired girl would go there and fetch water. Everyday, Kikyou watches her.
"Hm… I wonder if I'll be able to see Takuya-sama today…" the girl spoke softly then giggled. "He's been busy lately but I really hope that today, he isn't."
Kikyou watched her curiously. A carefree young girl…. Just like how she used to be when she's in her village.
"Well, I shouldn't worry about that right now. I have chores to take care of!" she set the water-filled pot on the ground, sealing it closely tightly. Then she carried it on her head and headed west to her village. But somewhere on the brush, something else is watching her besides Kikyou.
She hummed a melodic tune as she walked slowly due to the heaviness of the pot she was carrying. Bushes rushed rapidly from behind her. As she turned around, a wolf jumped on her, making the pot fall on the ground, shattering into pieces.
"Argh…." she fell on the ground as the wolf pressed its fangs on the flesh. Fresh crimson blood sprout from the hole that was punch on her skin by the wolf's fangs. Unconsciously, her hand wondered around until she felt a long, thin stem that had fallen from the three above her. Her hand grasp in and whipped the wolf on the face. Instead of letting go, the wolf was determined to hang onto her arm that she could feel its fangs tightening its grip to her skin. She closed her eyes in deep pain as she expected the wolf to soon consume that part of her arm… then she felt a weight reside against her… and the wolf's grasp was gone.
She opened her eyes and found the now dead wolf leaning against her. She grab its mouth and opened it to free her arm from its fangs.
"An arrow...." she told herself as she got a glimpse on an arrow on the wolf's back. Almost automatically, her glance shifted from the wolf's back to the figure a few feet away from her. It was a lady with a long black hair and tranquil eyes. Kikyou turned her back and was about to leave when she called her.
"Wait!"
Kikyou stopped on her tracks and looked back from her shoulders.
"Thank you for saving me. I'm Yuna from the village of Karin. May I ask yours?"
"I'm..." Kikyou paused then turned around to face Yuna. "My name is Kikyou. I'm a priestess of a faraway village."
"You are?" Yuna stood up and winced as she grasp her bleeding arm. "Which village are you from?"
"Just... some village...." Kikyou's gaze fell from Yuna's face to her arm. "Follow me and I will treat your wound.
Yuna followed closely and soon, the two girls disappeared through the thick bushes.
