The Untold Love
Chapter 2: Attack on Village
"Aoi! Are you there Aoi!?!" I awoke to a small childs' voice calling for me. It must of been near noon by then. I thought of who it could possibly be, then I remembered, the girl Rin from the village was comming over to learn new katana techniques. How did a young girl like Rin get so into katanas? I didn't have time to think about this though, I knew Rin, and how much that girl can't stand waiting for anyone. I grabbed my Silk Kimono and Katana. I walked out to greet Rin who had the biggest smile on today. "Lady Aoi! I thought you forgot about me!" She ran into my arms before I could say a word. She was a sweetheart.
Rin and I were very much alike, we both had lost our families and lived on our own. I tried to get her to live with me, but she never seemed to want to. She wanted to stay where she was born, in her house and I respected her for that.
"Do you have your katana?" She gasped and coverd her mouth, she was so adorable. I took my spare which was just her size and handed it to her. "This will have to do for today Rin." She placed the sheild of the katana into her belt loop, just like mine.
We started out with our usual yoga and relaxing the body to get ready to fight. Of course I never fought the girl, even though she would beg me all the time to. I was scared I might kill her. I'm sure I wouldn't but I never wanted to take the chance. We used practice dolls that I had made just for her. My other students were adults and could handle a good fight against me, but Rin just wasn't there yet.
We practiced for what seemed like forever. That girl has more energy than a horse I swear. As we went into my home, we heard screams comming from the village.
"Rin, you stay in here, don't go anywhere please!" I hid her into my closet. I didn't want her to get into any danger. Once I knew she was safe inside I ran into town, my katana in hand. By the time I got there I knew it was too late, wolves were everywhere, attacking everyone in their path. I drew my katana out and charged after them. For some reason, they didn't even try to come after me, they just ran past me, as if I were invable. "What the hell is going on?" Then I realized that several were heading into my house, where Rin was hiding.
I ran as fast as I could until I was stopped by a wolf demon. "Get out of my way you animal!" He glared at me with his brown eyes. I stood my ground but I didn't expect him to slap me. I lost my balance and fell to the ground. Before I could get up he put his foot to my neck, his nails could easily slit my throat so I chose not to move. Was this it? Was I going to die this way?
Before I had a chance to find out I saw a sword fling across and cut the demons head off. He fell instantly. I quickly rose to see who it was that had saved me from this monster, but when I saw his eyes, I knew it was Sesshomaru. I thought my heart was going to burst at that very moment, I was speachless.
