Chapter 1: Meeting Akira
"I'm going out for awhile!" Calarie said as she closed the door to her new home. She sighed; the memories of her family's death still haunted her even after 2 years. Calarie was now 14 she was 12 when it all happened. She laughed bitterly, "I actually feel no pity for myself even though my parents died when I was a bit younger."
Calarie settled at the hill on Sacramento. She stared on at the glittering stars flashing at night. "The stars are bright tonight." Calarie said to no one unparticular. "You're right girl." A young female voice said. Calarie turned around like lightning; she looked around and saw nothing. "Hey, you can here me?" the voice asked again.
"Who's there?" Calarie said without the slightest voice of being scared. "Don't worry I won't hurt you." The voice appeared to be a woman. Not apparently solid and mortal. "A-a ghost!" Calarie exclaimed. "Again, I won't hurt you. I can't even touch you actually." She said smiling sheepishly. As Calarie think of her words she flushed a bit, "Oh yeah, ghost are transparent." She rubbed the back of my neck.
"So what is your name, girl." She asked with amusement shining in her eyes. "My name is Calarie Suzumiya, yours?" Calarie answered. "Akira." "No last name?" "No, my family disowned me since I killed the only samurai I loved. I didn't want to but it was for them. If I told them then they would get killed. That samurai was my families' favorite so they disowned me." "Oh… sorry for bringing that up. Excuse me but how did you die?" "I died gracefully in the war. I sacrificed my life for my country, Japan." "Wow, I'm sorry for hearing that but you were in Japan! That's awesome!" "But that's not a problem at all compared to what happened to you." "How did you…" "I saw it on the news." "Oh…" "Now why were you excited I was from Japan?" Akira asked.
Calarie smiled, she loved Japan to its fullest! Its food, culture, how they dress and everything else! But the one she loved the most was its anime. Her favorite was Shaman King and nothing will change that. She explained all that to Akira like she was her best friend.
It was now darker and she needed to go home. Calarie stood up, "Bye Akira! I'll meet you tomorrow!" "Good Bye!" Akira waved. Calarie ran back home and went to sleep immediately. No one in that house knew what Calarie was doing outside. That night Calarie had a magical dream. She now had a ghostly new friend, Akira.
