Prologue
Aisu
At the age of eight, Milam was already a homeless orphan living in the city streets of Japan. She had no protectors and no one in her life to depend when in time of need. She lived off the molded and rotten garbage scraps each day to keep herself alive. It was one day a long limo pulled in front of her as a very wealth man offered the homeless girl a substantial amount of money for a special job in return. She and a group of other homeless children were to deliver a package to an abandoned forest in northern Japan. With the money offered she gladly accepted.
On that day, her and a group of five others made their way to the forest only to realized they walked into a trap. Ninjas from everywhere appeared and stealthily massacred each one. All except for Milam. A sword pierced her gut but she refused to die. The ninjas saw the strong ambition out of the small girl and took her into the clan. After they cared for her injuries, she was introduced to Gamja. Frightened for her own life in her unknown location, she grew up to be the small shy and frightened one of the entire Black Spider Clan. Gamja began to teach her the style of ninjitsu. Through each session, Mishu was also a student alongside her. Since Milam was known as the small and frightened one she was easily reticuled, teased and sometimes abused by the other members of the Black Spider Clan; because of this it was the help of Mishu's protection against these adversaries that kept Milam from going insane.
When Milam reached 17 and Mishu was 19, they both fell in love with each other. Unfortunately, Milam learned the basics of ninjitsu, but no matter how much training Mishu and Gamja gave her, she could never excel herself to the advanced level. This discouraged Milam to a point where she almost gave up. It was Mishu that went to Mitsuri and pleaded for permission to grant her hierarch skills to improve her fighting skills. Through much deliberation, Mitsuri agreed. He did not like the fact Milam was so shy and timid when he was trying to run a strong army. In turn, he ordered Gamja to bless Milam with the powers of black magic.
Gamja obliged and Aisu was born. She was gifted the power of ice. Within a years time, she mastered her skills in both fighting and magic, and immediately became a powerful force within the Black Spider Clan. The timid, shy girl was dead as her confidence grew to a more cocky persona. This pleased Mitsuri as he immediately promoted her to a hierarch of the Black Spider Clan. Aisu no longer thinks of her hard times and struggles as an orphaned homeless, but now focuses on the clan that saved her life by taking any measures to see the Black Spider Clan excels in all missions.
Over time, the power of a hierarch went to her head as the love she had for Mishu slowly began to fade away. Soon she felt as if she didn't need him in his corner any longer and she solely put forth all of her attention and willpower into the advancements of the Black Spider Clan. Only on times of comfort and passion, when Aisu needed those healings, she would call on one of the other hierarchs, Widow, for those satisfactions. Other than that, Aisu dedicated her life to the clan that saved hers.
