Past, Present, and Uncertainty
Chapter one ~ dad?
A small girl that looked only about nine walked in the rain by herself. She walked down an dark ally way and didn't seem to care. She had no umbrella and didn't even bother shield herself from the rain. Her hair was pure white and on top of her head were two small ears that twitched with every sound. She wore a blue sailor school uniform and her face was red as though she had been crying. She wiped her blue eyes on her sleeves and sniffed.
'Why did I have to go to school? Why? Its not fair! I shouldn't have had to! They are so mean to me! And it was bring your mommy or daddy to school day, too.' She thought and sniffed again. They all made fun of her ears enough and then they top it off with her not having a mommy or daddy. She never knew them, but she was still mad that they left her. She wiped her eyes again.
She heard footsteps behind her and wasn't surprised when the person called out to her, "Hey, little girl."
"Go away." Was her only answer.
"Little girl. Where's your mommy and daddy?"
She didn't turn around to look at him, she could tell it was a him by his voice. "I don't have a mommy or daddy. And stop calling me 'little girl'. My name's Naomi."
"I'm sorry, Naomi."
"Fine. Now leave me alone." She kept on walking.
"Shouldn't you be in school?"
"I got kicked out for the day because I gave a boy a black eye. It didn't hurt that bad, he was just being a baby. Now go away."
"Do you need a ride home?"
She turned around and stomped her foot. "I don't need a ride home! I only need you to leave me alone! Now GO AWAY!" She looked at him. He was tall and about in his twenties.
"Naomi, come with me." He beckoned.
"NO! I don't need your help to get to the orphanage!"
"The orphanage is the other way." He told her.
"Feh! Who cares? No one will notice I am gone!"
"That is not true." He told her softly, trying to calm her down.
"Yes it is!" Tears formed in her eyes. "They all make fun of my ears! They all hate me! Everyone does!"
"Ears . . .?" He practically whispered and then looked to the top of her head. There were two small ears twitching with every sound. "Holy . . . You're a demon!"
"See!" Tears fell from her eyes, she hit the ground with her fist, causing a little of the concrete to crack. "You're going to make fun of them, too! Go ahead! Yell at me! Call me a demon! Pull on my ears! It has all been done before!"
"No, I think that your ears are cute." He told her. 'I can make money off of this girl.' He thought and smiled.
She sniffed and wiped her eyes. "R-really? You mean it? You don't think they are weird? You don't wanna pull them?"
He shock his head. "No. Naomi, I like you. I have always wanted a kid, I would like to adopt you."
"Wh-what? You mean you'll be my daddy?" She wiped her puffy red nose.
"Yes." He was shocked when the little girl ran into his arms and hugged him tight. "Now let's get you back to the orphanage so I can fill out the papers."
"Yes . . . daddy." She was lifted up off the ground as he carried her under his umbrella with him to the orphanage. She was so innocent. He almost felt guilty about what he planned to do with her.
~five years later *she's fourteen*~
"Oi! I dare you! Come and hit me! If you can." Naomi mocked her opponent. "Do you want me to only use one hand? Or is that still to hard? How about none?" She looked at her opponent's shock as he saw her put her hands behind her back.
"I am not scared of you!" He cried, but his voice shook.
"Sure you are. You know it is okay. Actually it is pretty normal to be afraid of a demon." She grinned, showing her fangs. He gulped and hesitated to attack. She kicked him and he flew out of the ring. "Idiot. Never hesitate."
"Naomi! You were playing with him! Why didn't you finish him off right away?" She heard a voice to her right and walked out of the ring, the opposite way the voice was coming from. "Don't even act like you don't hear me! I know you hear me! Now get over here!"
"Feh, why should I, Pops?" She shrugged and kept walking.
"Because I am your father." He yelled and chased after her, even though he didn't have to she turned around and looked him in the eye.
"Let's get on thing straight, Pops." She spat the word like it had a foul taste. "You are not, I damn well repeat, you are not my father! I have no father!"
"I adopted you out of the kindness of my heart and you treat me like this?"
"Oh, give it up! I know perfectly well that you did not adopt me because you loved me! You adopted me so that I could fight for you and make you money." She walked off.
"I am your legal guardian, if not your father, and I demand that you give me respect." He huffed.
"Feh. To get respect, you have to give respect." She replied. She looked up at the sky and noticed that it was getting dark. "I'll sleep in a tree tonight. I'd rather not be stuck in that trailer with you."
"Fine do as you please. Do you want dinner?"
"I am not hungry." She replied as she took a leap into the closest tree. She watched as the fallen fighter left in a black car. They had to do these fights in the forest where they wouldn't be seen, they were illegal, after all.
"You need to eat to keep up your strength."
"Feh. Maybe I'll just stay up here and shrivel up and die. Then what would you do for money?" She said sarcastically.
"Suit yourself." He shrugged.
"I have to get out of here." She whispered and rolled to her side in the tree, opposite of the trailer. She shivered. It was cold, but not to bad. She liked it up here. The fresh air and stars to stare at all night long. She breathed deeply and sighed. "Tomorrow morning. I leave." She then let the comforting blanket of sleep wrap around her.
End of Chapter One.
