Talk quickly filled the room after the small ceremony of announcement was over. Busy chief began to run back and forth thru the back door, bringing in food, and utensils, setting up the dinner tables. You could smell chicken, turkey, rolls, and other food, their scents mixing in the air, it made your mouth water, and stomach growl.

"Come on, there are people you need to meet." Kuai said. He began to walk forward dragging you with him. You walked fast to keep up with him so you were walking beside him. There were 7 people surrounding your brother. 3 girls, and 4 boys. They gave curt nods to Kuai and warm smiles to you, that you welcomingly took and gave back.

You felt like you were going to have a panic attack. The last time you really conversed with strangers was before your death.

"My, my, aren't you a pretty one?" The girl was beautiful; she was dressed in an outfit of jade. Her hair reached her waist.

"I agree, Kuai did a fine job with this one." The girl standing to the right of the first one said this one. She up held herself with such nobility. She wore an outfit of blue, she two was beautiful.

"Not much of a talker, huh?" The last girl on the left to the one in the middle said. She had blonde hair put up in a bun with he bangs hanging out. She wore a black strapless cocktail dress with, she was very stunning.

You couldn't help but stare at them. Your eyes widened in horror as you finally realized what the last girl said. "I am so sorry- You quickly bow your head- I don't mean any disrespect, my name is Kiyomi, it is nice to meet you. I have to get used to everything again." You let out a little laugh, and caused the girls to join.

"The pleasure is ours, I am- The girl in the blue pointed to herself- Kitana, this is – She pointed to the girl closest to her, wearing the green outfit- is Jade, and that – she pointed to the last girl with the dress- Is Sonya." She ended. You nodded and smiled. "You are all so beautiful." You say. The giggle and give you and 'aww' and a 'thank you.'

Your heart began to slow down and you were not feeling as nervous as you were before. You were starting to relax.

"So, Hanzo's sister. I bet that is exciting." Jade said with a smile. You all turned and looked over to the boys who were in their own group talking. "I swear they gossip more than girls." Sonya said shaking her head earning a laugh form all of you.

"It can be at times. Unexpected things always happen." You say raising your eyebrows at the last part.

You looked over at the girls and got lost in thought. 'I wonder who else my brother met on his journeys'

"So how did you meet my brother?" You asked out of curiosity. You looked over to them and noticed Kuai looking at you causing you to blush and look away.

The door opened and two Lin kuei guardians walked in, a small elder woman stood in front and in between them. She had hair as white as the fallen snow, it was wrapped into a bun and it sat in place upon her hair. Her robes were navy blue and made of silk. Everyone dropped to one knee and bowed to her, they took her in high regards. You were wondering who she was.

"Kiyo- Sonya touched your knee. You looked around and noticed everyone looking at you know, Kuai had an aggravated look on his face, and Hanzo was motioning for you to sit down. The guardians looked at you with disdain.- maybe you should show your respect and kneel down." She whispered.

You looked back to the elder woman who had a stern look on her face.

"Koko de kodomo o kuru." ( 'Come here child.')

You hesitated for a moment, the woman nodded her head and extended her arm out to you, beckoning for you to come closer.

"Obieta kodomo wa ikemasen-watashi wa anata ni kigaio kuwae tari shimasen. Korera no furui me ga tsurai toki watashi wa kowai, mite imasu."('Don't be frightened child I will do you no harm. These old eyes have a hard time seeing, I'm afraid.') She chuckled after saying this.

You nod your head and give a short smile as you begin to walk to her. She took your hand into hers and began to examine you, looking you up and down and circling you. Her hand was cold to the touch, much like Kuai's.

It seemed as if everyone was holding their breathes, waiting for what she did next.

She let out a loud chuckle and laugh, she gave you a gracious smile that made her look even more adorable then she already was to you.

You realized that the tension that was now in the room decreased drastically.

"Anata wa, tashikini kanperi ni matchi shi, Hijo ni utsukushidesu." ('You are indeed very beautiful, and perfect match.') She takes your hand into hers again and looked over at Kuai when she says this. A warm smile on her face now.

"Kon'ya wa ashita wareware wa monogoto a giron suru tame ni matte irude anata no otome-tachi to au, iwau." ('Tonight we celebrate, tomorrow we meet with your maidens in waiting to discuss things.') She pats your hand with hers and bows, walking towards the table, the two guardians walking with her.

~3 hours later~

You just finished eating all the food you can. You thought you were going to explode that is how full you were. Right now it was becoming a struggle to keep your eyes open.

"Sleepy?"

You jumped when one of the men you saw earlier asked you this. He had a bamboo hat and wore and outfit of blue and white.

"Very much so." You answer with another yawn. You looked at him and raised your eyebrow. "Excuse my rudeness but I don't think we were introduced earlier, I don't know your name." You say.

He nods his head in agreement crossing his arms over his chest. "I am raiden, and they –He points into order that they set, they were the other 3 guys from earlier as well- are Lui Kang, Kung Lao, and Jax." He finished

You nodded your head in understandment. You put the names with the faces to remember them.

"Maybe you should get some rest." Raiden said. You looked over to say something and he was gone. You walked over to where you saw Kuai and Hanzo, they were talking with the girls.

You placed your hand on Kuai's back and felt him tense up a bit. You removed it. "I am starting to get a little tired, so I think I am going to call it a night." You say. Kuai nods his head, while the girls tell you 'Good night' and give you hugs.

"I will take her to her room."

You looked at Hanzo when he said this, and nodded your head.

Kuai said nothing as you both walked off.

The walk was quiet as you made your way down the hall with your brother. After 5 minuets you reached your door. You let out another yawn and started to open the door.

"Kiyomi." You stopped what you were doing and looked at your brother.

"Yes Hanzo?" you asked him letting another yawn leave your mouth.

"I will be gone before you wake tomorrow. Do a good job, and don't fail us. Make us proud, learn what you can, and be a good wife. Help as much as you can too, understood?" He asked.

You nod your head and looked down, trying to hide the fact that you were about to cry.

"Understood, I will not fail.. you. I just wish you didn't have to leave so soon." The thought of Hanzo leaving you here saddened you.

He let out a sigh and pulled you into a hug.

"You will be alright, and it isn't like we aren't going to see each other again." He says. You pulled back and looked at him.

"Do you remember what happened the last time you said that?" You ask, sarcasm was in your voice.

Hanzo narrowed his eyes at you. "Kiyomi, no more." His voice was threatening and you knew you said the wrong thing. He walked around you to join the others while you opened the door to your room.

You slipped your shoes off and slipped into bed, letting the warmth of your blanket and the night claim you.
