Chapter 2

9-year-old Namiyo ran up through the village to Tsubaki’s house. She saw her friend helping her mother with the wash.

“Tsubaki!” shouted Namiyo

Tsubaki looked up and waved to her friend. Namiyo smiled an evil grin. She held out her hand and a slick patch of ice appeared on the ground. Namiyo quickly ran across it and slide right in front of Tsubaki’s house. Tsubaki giggled as her friend slide down on the ground. Namiyo laughed.

“Namiyo! Stop that somebody could slip and break their neck!” shouted Tsutsuji.

Namiyo giggled. She stood up and quickly melted the ice. Namiyo ran up to Tsubaki and started helping her hang up the laundry. Tsutsuji stood in the doorway and watched the two little girls’ work and laugh. Namiyo was the first friend Tsubaki ever had. And Tsubaki was the first friend Namiyo had ever had.

Thrls rls finished up the laundry and then went to play. Tsutsuji watched the girls play. They climbed tree’s and went to the stream. Tsutsuji went back inside and started to prepare dinner. That’s when she felt the ground sha ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Namiyo and Tsubaki swam around the stream. They then lay down on the bank and looked up at the sky. Their clothes were folded near them and their under kimonos were drying on them. Their wet hair was spread out.

“Hey Namiyo,” asked Tsubaki.

“Yea?”

“Why did you and mother leave your home?” asked Tsubaki

Namiyo looked up into the sky. She could remember the beautiful city her and her mother left behind.

“ It became dangoures. My father wanted mother and me to leave,” said Namiyo.

Tsubaki rolled over.

“Your father? You left him behind?”asked Tsubaki.

Namiyo nodded her head. Tears sprang to her eyes. he was so brave. But Namiyo knew that he was dead.

“My father is dead,” said Namiyo.

She rolled over next to Tsubaki.

“What happened to him?” asked Tsubaki.

The city I used to live in, Kyoto , fell to war. My father was a samuri. He was called to battle. He told mother and I to leave. He said that after the battle he would find us. But he hasn’t come. So he’s dead,” said Namiyo.

Tsubaki looked at her friend with deep concern. Her voice was filled with sadness.

“Your father may still be alive. So don’t give up hope yet,” said Tsubaki.
Namiyo looked into her friends eyes.

“I’ll try, “ she said

Namiyo suddenly looked in the direction of the village.

“Oh no!” she shouted.

Namiyo quickly got and ran to the village.

“What is it Namiyo?” shouted Tsubaki behind her. Tsubaki heard a loud roar.

“A demon!” she shouted.

The girls quickly ran into the village. Several houses were destroyed.

A gaint demon had Taki in it’s claws. He let out a loud roar. Taki screamed as the demon squeezed her.


“Mother!” shouted Namiyo.

Yoshi quickly reached out and grabbed Namiyo. Namiyo screamed and thrashed against him.

“Namiyo there’s nothing you can do!,” said Yoshi.

Namiyo felt tears stream down her face. Yoshi held her close to him.


“NO!” shouted Namiyo.

Yoshi was blasted back from a powerful energy coming from Namiyo. Namiyo ran up to the demon and looked up at him.

“Let my mother go!” she shouted.

The demon laughed.

“HAHAHA! What can you do about little girl!” the demon laughed.

“Release her and I won’t kill you!” she shouted.

The demon smiled.

“You kill me? HAHAHA! Let’s see you try!”

The demon opened his ugly mouth. A huge ball of energy gatherd in his mouth.

“DIE!” shouted the demon. He hurled the ball at Namiyo.

“NAMIYO!” Shouted Tsubaki. She started to run to her friend. Her father grabbed her before she could.

“NO! Stay back Tsubaki!” said her father.

“No! I have to help my friend!” said Tsubaki.

“She’s dead. There’s nothing we can do,” said Yoshi.

Tears sprang to Tsubaki’s eyes. Her friend was about to die. Tsubaki tigtly shut her eyes. She did not want to see her friend die.

The gaint ball of energy hit her. Flames leapt up around her. The villagers gasped. Suddenly the flames were blowen away.

“What in the hell,” said Yoshi.
Tsubaki opend her eyes. She gasped at what she saw. Namiyo stood alive among the flames. Namiyo’s hair was swirling around her head. He purple eyes glowed brightly.

“Namiyo…” said Tsubaki.

The villagers watched with awe.

The demon’s mouth gaped open.

“How can you still be alive! Your not a demon! Your human” he shouted.

Namiyo looked directly into his red eyes.

“Because I am a sorceress. I am more powerful then you will ever hope to be!” she shouted.

Namiyo’s hands glowed with a blue light.

“Hyaku Kazahana!” she shouted.

Thousands of snowflakes came from Namiyo’s hands. The demon screamed as their razor sharp edges cut him to pieces. The demon was dead. Taki and the demons severd arm fell to the ground. His hand opend up and Taki rolled out.


“She defeated a demon. She is but a child,” said Tsubaki’s mother.

Tsubaki couldn’t belive that her friend had defeated a demon. Tsubaki knew that Namiyo was powerful. But she had no idea that she was that powerful

“Mother!” shouted Namiyo.

Namiyo ran to her mother’s side. She gripped her mother. Blood was flowing out from underneath her. Namiyo laid her head down on her mother’s stomach. Namiyo felt a hand on her head. She looked up and saw her mother’s eyes halfway open.

“Nam..iy..o..”

“Mother,” said Namiyo.

“Come closer,” she said.

Namiyo leaned down. Yoshi saw Taki say something, but he couldn’t hear it. Namiyo just sat beside her mother. Her purple eyes were glassy. Taki stroked her face. She then stopped. Taki’s hand dropped. Yoshi could see she was no longer breathing. Namiyo wailed and laid her head on her chest. Taki had tried to defend the village but the demon hurt her fatally.

Tsubaki felt tears running down her face. Yoshi and one of the men from the village walked up to Namiyo. Tsubaki ran behind them. Yoshi kneeled down and put his hand on Namiyo’s back. Namiyo sat up and looked at him.

“Honey. Is it all right if we take her?” asked Yoshi.

Namiyo nodded and moved aside. Yoshi leaned down and picked her up. Little drops of blood dripped as he carried her away. Tsubaki sat down next to Namiyo. Namiyo looked at her and Tsubaki took her in her arms.

“Promise me Tsubaki. That you will always be here,” said Namiyo.

“I will always be here,” said Tsubaki.

Namiyo nodded. Suddenly Namiyo screamed and rose into the air. A bright purple light came from her. Namiyo screamed again.

“Namiyo! Father something is hurting Namiyo!” shouted Tsubaki.

Yoshi looked over at Namiyo. Taki then felt very light in his arms. Taki rose into the air and her entire body was engulfed in a light blue light. Glowing orbs erupted from her body and soared over to Namiyo. The orbs entered her body. Namiyo screamed and then passed out. Taki’s body then drifted back into Yoshi’s arms. Namiyo drifted to the ground. Tsubaki quickly crawled to her side.

“Namiyo please wake up! Please don’t be dead!” shouted Tsubaki. Tsutsuji ran up to her and put her ear on Namiyo’s chest.

“She’s not dead. Come on let’s get her inside,” said Tsutsuji.

She picked Namiyo and with Tsubaki following brought her into their hut. Namiyo was not moving. She just laid there. Tsubaki took her friends hand in hers.

“Please be alright Namiyo,” prayed Tsubaki.
