Thankies for all the reviews! Glad you all like my story! Oh, and shelter, thanks for the great advise. Like I said before, I've only seen the movie once, so I don't know that much about it. I do not own anything.
You lost you're memory?! San exclaimed. He nodded. She took her dagger out and threw it into the wall of her cave out of frustration.
Do you know how? She mouthed.
"All I know is that it has something to do with this curse. Will you help me lift it? I'll help you with yours." He said. San raised an eyebrow and after a minute she nodded. She looked out to the mouth of the cave and saw that the sun was down and the stars were showing. She crawled over to a mat and used her cape as a blanket. Ashitaka stayed there and when she noticed he didn't move she pulled her arm out from under the blanket and pointed to a spare mat next to her. He got up and walked over to it and laid down. He looked at her and saw her smiling slightly.
Good night she said.
"'night." He mumbled. He fell asleep easily and his dream seemed really familiar.
ooo
Ashitaka stood in a field, his sword held in a defensive position as he looked around quickly. There was a presence; he just could see where it was coming from yet. With a great flash of light a woman that was glowing brightly appeared in front of him. Her eyes shut and her lips were as red as blood. Her silver hair flowed in the air as if she were underwater, as well as her robe. He lowered his sword slightly and eyed her suspiciously.
"Ashitaka, you've grown so much. Do you remember who I am?" the woman asked. Before each sentence she took in a deep, shallow breath that rattled her rib cage.
"I'm pretty sure I would remember you." he said, holding up his sword again. The woman inched closer.
"My dear boy. I am the spirit Nai; I come to repay a debt." She said.
'The spirit named…dead…?' he thought, wide eyed.
"That demon boar you killed last year. I am here to repay it. You saw me hidden in the trees after it died, but you did not care." She said. He took a few steps back, but she inched closer and held out her hand and touched his cheek. Her cold fingers felt like icy daggers on his skin.
"Not only you should suffer, but the one you hold dear in you're heart will as well. I wish you to suffer. You're memory will fail you and you're heart will burn. No one will save you, and you shall die!" she said. Though she was an evil spirit, her voice was beautiful and poetic.
"Why are you doing this?" he yelled.
"I was ordered. I follow any orders that involve curses or death. You see, I love to watch people suffer!" she laughed manically. Ashitaka shuddered when she pressed a large, freezing hand on his chest. Her eyes opened and he saw the rim of the iris was pure black, and the pupil was pure white, gray was in between the two colors. His eyes drooped and he fell to the ground, unconscious.
ooo
Ashitaka sat up quickly and looked around. He was in the cave and next to him was the sleeping figure of San. He just then realized he was covered in a cold sweat. He turned his attention to San when she stirred. Her eyes opened and she looked at him. Once San realized how he was panting for breath she sat up quickly.
Are you ok? She asked.
"d-do you know of the spirit named Nai?" he asked quickly.
I've heard of her. What's it to you? She asked.
"I had a dream about her. She's the one who put this curse on me…on both of us." He said.
You remember now?! He shook his head and wiped away the sweat on his forehead.
"No, no I don't. I just remember her." he said. She looked slightly disappointed and laid back down. He followed her lead but didn't fall asleep again. He stared at the ceiling and thought about the dream.
Sorry it was kinda short. Please review!!
