1 Chapter. 1 The Strange Man

Elizabeth Sin is my full name but some people can me Liz. I live by myself in the mountains by the small village that isn't really well known. But the mountain I live on its known for its beauty because of the cherry blossom trees that grow there. On the mountain of cherry blossoms, there is a shrine, that's where I live in, I work to keep everything clean at the shrine but no one really goes there. The reason why I'm clean a shrine that no one really goes to is because my late parents thought it was a good idea to make a shrine there just because of the beauty of the cherry trees.

I finally got done cleaning the shrine, I rub off the sweat on my forehead "all done, I might get in the bath soon" I said as I look at the horizon seeing the sun slowly. As the sun was setting down it started to get darker, I go inside the shrine than I walk to the bathing room and bath. After an hour pasted I get out and gets dress in a white kimono and head to my room "today went so fast that I didn't even know that I was in the bath for that long". I said as I think about my parents and how they died "Orges... I need to become stronge so those orges won't kill anyone else..." my expression change to a relax expression to an serious one. Once I got to my door, I slide open the door, when I got in my room I closed the door behind me, I lay down on my futon slowly going to sleep.

After a few hours of sleep, I heard something outside the door that leads to the to the garden area. I sit up quickly while looking at the slide door, I slowly got up from my futon walking towards the sliding door. I slided it opened a little making a little crack so I could see what was outside my room, but once I looked through the crack I saw a man. A man with very long red hair that brighten in the moon light, his back was towards me so I couldn't tell who it was. But it looked like he was wearing some kind of kimono, I wanted to see who it was outside but I was defenseless so I said quiet. Until the man suddenly falls on the ground, I slide opened the door quickly and ran to him.

I was worried even though I knew nothing about him or why he was here in the first place. Once I got to the strange man that collapsed I saw that his left arm wasn't normal, I gasped as I saw his arm. But once I turned him over making him lay on his back, I saw his face. He was handsome but there was wounds on his body that I didn't noticed. His kimono was soaked with blood, I decided that I would treat him, I picked him up but it was a bit hard to carry him inside but I managed to carry the red haired man in the empty room that I don't use any more. I placed him gently on the floor and I ran to get another futon, once I grabbed it I place it down next to him. I gently dragged him on the futon and went to grab some bandages and medicines to help the man heal from his wounds.

I get back to him, I take off his shirt gently so I wouldn't wake him up I cleaned up his wounds, then put medicine and bandages over the wounds. "Ok that's done with, now I should wait for him to get up so he would tell me what happened to him" I said to myself quietly. I look over at him and thinks to myself while trying to found out what happened to him. And what happened to his arm I think about if he was a demon, human, or even both, a hybrid.
