Chapter three: I see
What I Have To Say...
Goddamn Fanfiction thing. I am trying to upload new chapters but then it's being a bitch. I'm sorry. Recently I went to the Anime Convention which was held in Honolulu, Hawaii (My home). It was great! I dressed up as a random ninja from NARUTO. And stuff like that. Anyway, I have to make this chapter fast because I have to go to practice. Tae Kwon Do this time. Grar. Enjoy chapter three.
"WHY?", Anna screamed, "WHY DID YOU DO THIS!" Ariko had some strength in her to talk, but then Kazuku already died. Then Ariko spoke up softly and said weakly, "You are a threat... We no longer love you...". Anna cried more and more and could not stop. Anna couldn't realize why her parents were doing this to her. "WHY!", she screamed again, "WHAT DID I DO! Please! Tell me! I can... I can CHANGE, JUST TELL ME! WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!". And then right there, Ariko put her hand on Anna's mouth. "Shh... I will tell you...", she said. So Anna tried to stop crying and then Ariko spoke, "You know that you are an Itako... And because I am like you... It is only tradition that I kill everyone in our villiage except my own husband... It's not destined for an Itako to have a baby girl... So... That baby girl must die... Even though I love her with all my heart...". Anna started to tear up again. "But... I wasn't aware that your powers have grown tremendously... So... Here we are... I'm not sorry because I am suppose to do this... But before I die, you must always remember this: Only think of yourself as always being alone because nobody will love you nor take care of you. Nobody gives a damn. Always live coldly. NEVER be happy again... You only make lives miserable...". And with that... Ariko left Anna alone... forever. "UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!", screamed Anna and then she fainted right next to her dead parents.
When Anna awoke the next day, her eyes were stained with red and were puffy from crying the night before. And her parents were still by her. An emotionless expression appeared upon her face. She stood up and started to walk. She had no idead what she was doing and where she was going to go. Anna just kept walking. She wanted to run away. A few days later, Anna went without food and water for a long while and was growing near to death. All of a sudden she saw a few feet away from her was the Asakura Family Household. But before she could reach the door, she fell on the steps because of her weak body.
Then that's when Kino, Yoh's Grandma, found her on the steps and carried her in the house. Anna was frozen and was unconcious. Her skin was pale and cold as ice. Kino put a hot wet towel on her head and covered her in a lot of blankets. After a few hours, Anna opened her eyes and was okay, "Who are you...?". "My name is Kino and I have been taking care of you. You were found on my stairs.", said Kino. Anna was about to say that she was thankful for what Kino did but then all of a sudden, she remembered what her mother had told her before she died, "... nobody will you nor take care of you. Nobody gives a damn... NEVER be happy again... You only make lives miserable...". Then Anna gave Kino a really cold stare, "What you did was idiotic", saoke Anna, "What you did was a waste of time. I am not thankful for your actions. I hate everyone around me. Never talk to me again...". Kino was shocked that this little girl was acting like a total brat. So then Kino stood up and walked out of the room closing the sliding door behind her. Anna fell back onto the futon and started to cry again because of her dead parents. Everytime she remembered the good times, her eyyes would water up and then she would yell into her pillow and sob madly.
Anna stayed at the Asakura household for a very long time and on one faithful day, Kino came up to Anna and said, "I know about your powers. I know that you are an itako. Your powers are great but you cannot control them... I can help you with that." "What do you know, you old lady?", barked Anna, "As if you know what real power is--" "You killed your parents and your mother spoke cruel words to you before her death", said Kino firmly. Anna's eyes had widend, "How... How do you know!", she yelled. "I am a mind-reader.", said Kino, "One of many powers of an itako." Anna was amazed with the powers that Kino had. "So, old lady,", said Anna, "You can teach me how to control my powers and teach me these kind of other techniques?" "Yes", said Kino, "And stop calling me 'old lady'. I take it as an insult." "Whatever... But I'll give in, I want to learn from you. I want to learn more about my powers. I'll give in.", said Anna. "Okay then but there's a catch to all of this.", said Kino. "Catch...? What is it?", said Anna. "Well", said Kino, "You have to marry my grandson, Asakura Yoh". "Fine then! I just want to learn these new powers that are hidden within me!", said Anna. "Well OKAY then! Training starts tomorrow!", yelled Kino.
As Kino trained Anna, there were a lot of up's and down's. Anna was a very stubborn person who always wanted her way and didn't care if Kino thought that her technique was too sloppy or lazy. Despite the arguements and dissagreements, Kino has raised Anna to become a very good itako. Kino has also changed Anna emotionally as well. Anna has become more nicer instead of being cruel to everyone. The only person that she truely respected was Kino...
