Ns: Welcome to the revised first chapter of Immortal Death! I didn't like how the first chapter came off. If that makes sense. Sorry it's been so long, my computer crashed and then the house was being renovated, you could say, so it had to be taken apart. So I will try to make up for lost time.
In Upper Egypt, in the city of Kom Ombo. The year 3011b.c. A little girl was born, into what could have been a loving family. Small and dark with eyes that shamed the precious emerald, and destined to be an only child,. Her only fault that brought her an ill fated future was the fact that she, was a girl. What any family wanted in that era was strong, healthy boy, surely Seth had cursed this household and was punishing this family. The mother believed this to be so, for not a year after the child's birth, her husband was forced to go to war, and not to return.
Age 3
Rei awoke with start, her eyes darted around the room. She leapt out bed, quickly straightened it, and rushed into the kitchen. There was Mother, angrily tapping her foot, " You're late!" she sneered. " I'm sorry mommy.", Rei whimpered. But this apology was unacceptable, so she received a slap to the face. " How many times have I told you not to call me that!", Mother yelled. Rei fought back her tears, " I'm sorry ma'am." Mother snorted angrily and pointed to the broom in the corner. It was time to sweep, and seemingly easy task except for the fact that broom was so much larger than she, making it difficult to maneuver. So Rei swept the kitchen. Once finished she went from chore to chore varying from washing clothes, fetching water, shaking rugs, and collecting food from the small garden. When she became older she would be sent to the market to obtain food. Mother felt that she didn't need to work, she had no husband, no son, and in that time women could not get jobs, except for being a prostitute and she would not sink to that level. ( Although 'whores' were highly revered in a religious sense, I have no clue why) Rei's minor mistakes awarded her a variety of beatings and other forms of punishment. In most cases she would go to bed bruised and bloody.
Rei lived this way for about one or two more years, that may not seem like a long time but if beaten on a daily basis, a week seems like a month. ( Just like in school, not the beating part) And so, one morning when Mother was passed out from drunkenness, Rei was up sweeping the floor when she noticed the glint of a sword above the kitchen window, through the morning haze. It seemed to beckon her, almost as if it were alive, like a great beast with sharp teeth, a drooling mouth and glimmering eyes! Surely it was possessed by Seth. Rei shook her head to rid her mind of murderous thoughts, but they persisted. Almost as if in a trance, she climbed up onto the counter and pulled down the sword from it's resting place. It seemed to have a mind of it's own and took Rei into her Mother's room. She lifted the sword over her Mother's neck, Rei shook, hesitating, but the demon of the sword won out and she swung the sword downward, hard.
NS: Ah, that's better! I is happy now! Enjoi! And of course, review!
