Disclaimer- I don't own Fushigi Yuugi or any of it's characters. There are spoilers from the Seiran Den. It also helps if you've read Seiran Den. Some things, to a lot of things, are a little different from the Seiran Den. But hey, it's my story. The character Suki is the only character I own in this story. Also it's rated R for violence and sexual stuff later. I've also just updated the story to make it better. Please read and review. Thank you.

I met him when we were younger. At a time when we still lived in our village in Kutou, he was so happy and kind back then. Ayuru was always hanging around with Taria at the time. I knew she liked him, I heard it from one of my close friends that she did. I couldn't help but like him too. He was such a quite boy, but what he lacked in conversation he made up for in his good looks and gentle nature. Yes, blond hair and blue eyes were common in the Hin village. Yet there was just something about him that made him stand apart from the rest. We did talk once in awhile, nothing more then the generic, "Hi, how are you?" I was too shy at the age of 9 to talk to him about anything else. Life at the back then had a pleasant, steady, beat to things. Taria and I would sometimes take walks and talk about the boys in the village. She would whisper things to me of how she felt about Ayuru. Existence was peaceful, until it was all shattered when the soldiers of Kutou came. I didn't know why they came. Without mercy they burned the houses and murdered everyone in the village. There was no end to their cruelty as they raped some of the women fleeing from their homes. Ayuru's mother was one of those women. I ran from my house to see what was happening. While the chaos erupted all around us, my father tried to fight off some of the men. My mother screamed for me to come back to her. I couldn't, my body was frozen. I was in complete shock. I began to visibly shake as I saw my father being decapitated in front of me and Ayuru's mother lying dead. I heard Ayuru's scream and saw a light emanate from him. Just as it all happened, my mother grabbed a hold of me and I passed out.
