Yuki: Well guys, here is the other part of the promise I made, Kage's past, if you haven't read the other two and/or what is up of the third part of Kage's story, don't worry you will understand this, but please try to read them too! R+R please the more reviews I get the better chance of an update.
Note: This chapter is told from Kage's point of view, as if you could be in her mind, her thoughts and her memories. So basically it is an overview of her life. It is like a prologue, the actual story starts the second chapter and will be told in third person. (I think)
Disclaimer: I do not own MP but I do own Kage and the plot.
I was sitting in the cell, huddling against my mother, she stroke my black hair and wiped my tears from my crystal blue eyes. These creatures had taken us from out home and shoved us in cells, we had no idea what was going on. Then the vampires came I remember that very well.
Jeshickah the one that seemed to be the leader of these creatures walked into the cell, followed by two other vampires.
"Hello, humans," Her smile was evil, "You," she pointed to my mother, "Come here."
My mother's grip on me tightened, "No," was her simple answer, but Jeshickah did not like that. She stalked further in and tore me from my mother throwing me to the side. She grabbed my mother and dragged her out. "Here you," She threw my mother to the second vampire that had followed her in. He dragged her away kicking and screaming. I was horrified screaming for my mommy trying to go to her, but I was stopped. The last vampire, he had black hair and tanned skin, grabbed me by my ragged shirt and lifted me up to his face.
"This one, I want this one Jeshickah, just like you said, I picked one slave, this one's it." He turned around to show me to the other vampire.
"Shall I train her since you just bought one to train?" Jeshickah started to look me over, she touched my face and I greeted her by biting her. Bought? Since when could you by humans? I started to scream and struggle again, but I was silenced with a slap from my new master. It stunned me, I had only seen people be hit, I was never hit.
He handed me over to Jeshickah, "Enjoy."
Since then I was always kept in a cell by myself, no other humans with me. I asked Jeshickah what happened with my mother and she simply said, "Who?"
No matter how hard she tried to train me, it was almost two years before I had any obedience at all. I was following my mother's last advice to me, Never give in Of course she was talking about the chickens when they were chasing me, but at the time I didn't know the difference.
I remember one particular night with her, my trainer, I was around five, maybe six, it's hard to tell. Jeshickah pulled me out of my cell by my hair, she tried to get me to do things that you would train a dog to do, I was slapped, kicked, and plagued with pain every time I disobeyed. Later I learned that this was called breaking. She knew my weakness, being alone, no family, my brother and father had been killed, and my mother was dragged away, I was alone. I sat there staring at her, I did nothing no matter what she punished me with, but when she got into my mind and twisted it to believe that I was left alone in a field, lost, in the rain, I started to hesitate. Thoughts like what am I doing here, and where is mommy? Crossed my mind and the answers came the same way, They left you here, mommy is gone now, she left you alone. When I came back from the illusion I looked up at Jeshickah, and realize that she was the only one that would take care of me, even if it wasn't very well.
"That's right little girl, I'm your trainer, like a mother that teaches you to behave, understand?" She talked to me sweetly I almost believed her, almost.
Yet, I learned quickly that Jeshickah was not my mother, nothing near it, many things passed, and a couple of years later, I was cursed and given to my master, Jaguar, but I wasn't completely broken yet. They tried many things including slaughtering my mother in front of me, that about did it, but I would not be a perfect pet until all my flaws were ironed out. Even now, in the present no one managed to make me into a perfect pet.
