Chapter Four Haka's Story
Author's Note: OK, I know that five people haven't reviewed yet. Oh well, I wanted to update and my mom keeps saying to go outside more.
It started out like any other normal day. Nevertheless, in the afternoon... "Mom, I'm going out for a walk in the woods!" Akira yelled. "Do you mind if Haka goes with you?" their mother yelled back. "Sure, why not?" The little girl leaped down the stairs landing neatly on her feet at the foot of the stairs. "Haka, never do that again!" her mother gasped in shock. "Sorry okaasan!" Their mother smiled as she watched the little girl speed outside, nearly running past her older brother on the way out.
The two siblings walked side by side into the forest. "It's quiet in here," Haka commented. However, the silence did not last long. A group of five or so men jumped out from the bushes and surrounded them. "They are Japanese!" they all yelled. "So?"Akira asked. One person walked up to them. "It was your ancestors! Yours, yours! Yours who killed my ancestors! Yours who killed our parents!" He spat. "We swore to get revenge. AND NOW WE WILL HAVE WHAT WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!" Another person stepped out. "Oh don't worry, we'll only take the boy; the girl's too young. This'll teach her a lesson." He laughed evilly. He lifted his gun. A scream and a loud bang split the afternoon sky in half.
The group of men looked in shock and horror at the limp body of the young girl they had just murdered. They gasped. They had not meant to kill her. Half of the men there even had daughters her age. Akira knelt down next to the dead body of the sister he loved. She had given up her life for his. She had taken the bullet meant for him. Angry tears ran down his face and he curled his hand into a fist and pounded the ground. Why couldn't it have been him? When he looked up, he found that the men had left, leaving no trace.
Akira slowly lifted up the limp body. He noticed her chest slowly rise. He nearly dropped her in his excitement. She was still living!! Barely but she was still alive. He took her to the hospital and explained what had happened. The hospital workers immediately rushed her to the emergency room.
After a while, he was allowed in. the doctors and nurses gave him funny looks. What is wrong? He wondered. He came into the room where Haka was. Her skin looked pale against the white sheets and her body looked frail and weak. Akira rushed to her side. He held her hand. 'everything's gonna be alright kid," he told her, trying to keep the tears in. Haka smiled a weak smile. "The doctors said..." she whispered weakly. "No, it's ok!" Akira interrupted. "Akira, I'm going now. Say 'bye' to mom and dad for me. Good bye Akira." Then, she breathed her last breath and closed her eyes in eternal sleep. She was dead.
Author's Note: Ok, ok, I know that really sucked!! You know how when you have this great idea in your head but nothing comes out right in words? Yeah, that's what happened. Well, review and tell me what you thought!! Sorry that it was so short. That's just the way chapters are in this story.
Well, let's see if people are up to the challenge of TEN reveiws before I update!! If not, I'll update when I feel like it. Anyways, I'm not supposed to be on the computer!!
