'Run'
That was the only thought in her mind as she just sprinted through the forest area with a speed that one would not expect a girl of her age to have.
'Run'
She did not question this thought in her head as it was the only thing she had in at the moment after all. There was nothing else she could draw from after all as she did not have to think long to realize she knew nor could recall anything else other than just one thing. The rage she saw on that guy's face shook her to the core for some reason. Thus for that reason along she just knew she needed to get as far away from that man as fast and as soon as humanly possible.
Sometime later...
The red hair girl sprung up spitting out dirt that had somehow gotten into her mouth. She look down to realize she was lying face down on the ground. That she had come too because someone had been poking at her head with a stick after all.
"Finally awake I see as I thought I came across a corpse just lying on the ground," they said as the red haired girl looked at her with pair of seemingly lifeless looking eyes.
Though she looked to see that the clothes she was wearing were no longer oversized but now more form fitting for her.
"Your clothes did not fit you so I fixed that for you," they said to her.
At this, she just nodded and started to walk off before collapsing to her knee before getting too far. There was a loud rumble coming from her stomach as she then noticed some food was tossed her way.
"Eat as you must be hungry after all," they told her
The red hair girl eyed the food and then one that toss it to her.
"If you do not want it then..." they started
The red hair girl's stomach growled again she then took the food and devoured it quickly. Only for more to be tossed her way.
The person found the red hair girl lying face first on the ground. They spend some time with her not exactly teaching nor doing anything for her exactly other than but just being there for her at least for the time being.
Though one day they awoke to find that person was gone. Not there when they woke up as they had been previous though someone else stumble across her shortly afterward though
"That kid was with them were not they," the stranger asked one of their companions.
"Yeah they were so it possible if we take her then..." the companion said or at least started to before their head was smashed into the ground with extreme force.
The red hair girl look at them with her lifeless eyes though rage could be seen radiating off from her though.
'These two are not like that person she thought as they did not give off the feel of the one that gave her food and adjust her clothes to fit better.
'They are like him that guy from that time' she thought
Going back to the person that cause them to run until she literally passed out from exhaustion. It triggered something in her, something that these two would vastly regret ever unleashing. After all, it would be the last thing they ever regret as well.
Sometime later...
She wander around a town when he stomach started growling again. It had happened for a long time but started again once she started walking around in a place that had other people in them.
Not really sure what to do she just went off her own instincts at the moment and went to where they told her that food was located.
Arriving at what was a dojo that where the red hair girl started banging on the door.
"What do you want banging that loudly" the one that answered demanded
She did not realize but she was using too much strength in her knocking thus to everyone else it was like she was banging on the door instead.
"Give me food" she demands from them
"Go home then kid if you are hunger," they told her but then thought 'if you even got one'
They could see how dirty their clothes were and that lifeless look in her eyes.
"Give. Me. Food" she demanded pulling them down to her level.
Shocking the person as she managed to grab them without them knowing would make a mistake they too would later regret.
In her current state, the girl only saw everyone else as either:
the helpful type like the one that gave her food
Neutral as in she did not care about them
The harmful type like one that scared her to her core
In her eyes everyone started out as neutral but based on their actions would quickly be placed in one of the other. Touching her automatically placed them as harmful in her eyes.
The person that answer the door went to do to attempt to get her off him which lead to them being thrown across the dojo and later everyone at the dojo lying in beaten and bruised as if they had been through a warzone.
The girl then discover their kitchen and would raid it until she was full. Eating anything and everything she could get her hands on.
This process would repeat itself many times as she would connect dojos with places to get food. Though everyone there was hostile thus she had to deal with them first.
It was while she was raiding the fridge of the last dojo that she came across a man with black hair and golden bangs appeared before her
"I am hungry. Don't bother me" she stated.
"You sure do a number on this place as do you even know what you are doing," he asked
"I told you I am hungry. Stop bothering me" she demand as she turned to the fridge only to see the man standing there having closed the door.
She then jumped back only to find herself sitting in his lap as he was sitting on the front himself.
"Such skill for someone that does not even realize what they are doing," he said to her as she froze up in his lap.
"Sorry about that did not mean to scare you like that *he then opens up the fridge* eat first then we can talk" he suggests.
At first, she is cautious but decides to do as he says for now. He was scary because he moves faster than her but does not give off the feeling of the scary person did. So she decides to trust him for now but was still thinking of ways to bolt should she feel that she needs to.
Then sometime after their initial first meeting, the two of them were walking somewhere else in a different town far away from that dojo where they first met. She never stayed in those places for too long as she did not want to deal with the crowd that showed up.
"So you don't leave dojos because you want to avoid the police that have been called on you," he asked
"Police!?" she asked confused
"Seriously," he said with a sigh as she looked at him blankly
He would later be fanning her head as she was lying in his lap as everything he told her seemed to overload her mind as she was missing so much knowledge about society and people in general.
This would be the second person that she stuck around with for some time as he would spend much of that time just drilling these things she did not know but should have into her head as they traveled together.
They would avoid town with dojo as she was already becoming known for her wrecking of dojos so that was not something he wanted to do with while he was with her.
"Huh!? Then how I am supposed to eat" the red hair girl said shocked when he first told her this
The guy then sighed as she was told about how one normally goes about dealing with hunger which as usual for something she did not know was mindblowing for her.
"Ranko" he then said one day while they were traveling.
Looking around confused the red hair girl then pointed to herself as there was no one else around them
"Yup as that could be your name as you can not recall your own. Eventually, you are going to need one so why not this one" he said
"Ranko?...seems interesting but why," she asked
"There was once another red hair girl, that was a teenager though, that had this name but she vanished some time ago. You remind me of her so why not" he said
"Ranko...Ranko...I like it as I do not have a name so why not" the newly dubbed Ranko said happily
