Chapter 1:
Over Earth...
Above Earth floated a kingdom, hidden in the clouds. A beautiful woman dressed in all white sat in a chair, viewing the planet below. Her white hair brought out the bloody red of her diamond eyes. A man in a full suit of armor approached her. He bowed down to her and began to speak. "Rukunasa..." he began, "They have arrived." The woman rose from her seat and began to walk through her palace of gold. "Then we shall prepare. No one shall have what is rightfully mine."
Hours later, an army of great numbers arrived. Rukunasa just smirked as there leader approached her. "Now is the time. Surrender and we shall leave you unharmed." Rukunasa closed her eyes as three gems broke through her skin, one on her forehead, and one on each of her wrists. She lifted her voice and chanted a strange language. The leader of the men just stared in confusion, then she opened her eyes. Lightning struck, and most of his army had died. With what he had left, he charged in blindly.
Hann lead his army forward and they slaughtered the other. In victory they yelled. But the trouble was not yet over. That night Hann approached Rukunasa in her sleep, and with a dagger tried to kill her, but before it was done, she awoke and dodged. "Hann, what are you doing?" "What am I doing? Taking those gems. For centuries you've held onto them, protecting human's from there own doings. Never did you take the power of the gems and use there real purpose. But I, I will. And you will be no more."
Rukunasa flied into the air and Hann did as well. They fought greatly, but in the end, Hann was the loser. With what strength she had left, she threw open a portal and tossed Hann into another world. His last words were, "One day Rukunasa I will have them!" And he was never heard from again...
Rukunasa for days sat in bed, trying to recover. But the damage that was done to her was permanent, and there was no way of recovery. Since she knew death was coming soon, she sent out her soul within and it traveled down to Earth. While there, it planted itself into a young woman, and years later grew into a young child named Ruto. Ruto was the most kindness, loving girl there was. With her purple hair and red eyes, she was envied by all others.
One day Ruto and her mother traveled to the park. It was spring and the cherry blossom tree's were blooming. Ruto laughed and played as she tried to catch the falling petals. Her mother laughed as Ruto fell down. Ruto cried at first, but seeing her mother made her laugh as well. She got back up and continued her catching of the petals. Finally she cought one, and turned around to show her mother. But instead of finding her mother's smile, she found her dead body laying on the ground.
"Mama!" she screamed. She ran over to her mother and held her hand. With her last breath her mother said, "Don't forget me." Her mother placed an amulet in Ruto's hand and then died. Ruto cried and cried, but then a strange man with pale skin and large yellow eyes came across her. "Rukunasa, a long time indeed it has been. I cannot believe that you have done this to yourself." "My name is not Rukunasa. It's Ruto!" The man kicked her to the ground and flung out his hand. Three gems broke through her skin. He tried to take them, but it was no use. He grabbed her and floated up into the sky to what was once her palace.
For hours he tried ways to take the gems, but it was hopeless. Finally he casted a spell upon her and it put her into a deep sleep. When she awoke her memory was lost, and she didn't even know her own name. "Ruto? How do you feel?" "...I...I don't know." The man laughed as she blankly sat wondering where she was. "I am Galfai." he said, "And you are Ruto. And you obey everything I say!" "Ruto?"
For the rest of her life, she was trained to be one of the most deadliest assassins alive. It was hard to believe that Ruto was even the same person. Once she was kind and now she is cold. Never again will anyone see a smile come across her face. All her memories have been taken away, except for the amulet which hangs around her neckā¦.
