The Stub Tail

I met this man. His name was Rain. What a strange name. His wife's name was Safire. Such odd names. I told them my name by writing it down. Sense they didn't know sign language. They were very kind people. They gave me food, clothes, and shelter. I'm so happy here. And enjoy my time here. But I still haven't gotten a job yet. Which is concerning. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I get papers telling me who I need to find and protect. If I fail to protect them, I'm killed(obviously fine afterwards)If I succeed then they get to lives a nice life and I die(so they don't know I'm a god) and continue on. I'm waiting for my next job currently. But i got a feeling it has something to do with this family. But as of now. I stay here and continue to eat.

I look up from my bed to see a paper at the bottom. I figured it was my next job. And of course I was correct. What I didn't realize was that the job was for this family. I walk out of my room, only to hear crashing needs screaming in the kitchen. I look to see a crying Kachi, with Rain and Safire on the ground in a giant puddle of blood. I had failed, I failed to protect the family. But as long as Kachi was alive, I didn't fail. I picked up Kachi and ran. I ran and ran as fast as possible. During the time when we were on the run. I gave her a nickname. Katra. I thought of it as a funny little nickname. But now when people ask her for her name. She gives them that name instead of her actual name. Its quite concerning when someone comes up to me to ask if Katra is mine, but I dont have anyone named Katra. Then i remember its Kachi. But hopefully she will figure out that its not her real name. Hopefully.
