The Godess of Buushuu

Mikoto

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL OF THESE NAMES ARE PURELY FICTION

I woke up to a loud bang outside. "What was that?" I ask myself. I get out from underneath the sea of comforters. "Ayanami, is that you?" I call for my servant, but she's not there. Where is she? I get up and open the door. The cold hair hits my face like a bullet and I shutter back inside the room. I fumble around with my kimono, making sure there are no slits for the heat to escape from my body before trying to exit the room again. I step out onto the wooden porch, polished to perfection. There are heavy footsteps behind me, approaching quickly. I turn back only for it to be the last thing I see.

 

I open my eyes again. It's dark. Extremely pitch black. I feel for my eyes to make sure they're not closed. They're not.

Why is it so dark in here? This is making me feel uneasy. Am I blinded?

A bright light shines itself infront of my eyes and a gentle voice speaks. "Do you wish to live?"

"Of course! Who are you?!"

The voice chuckles before speaking again. "Such an adorable child." The light disappears and the world is enveloped in darkness once again. I blink and I'm suddenly in a new world. I was so shocked that I had no time to look around at my suroundings. A figure steps out from behind a curtain; a woman. She is wearing a mask with a large red plus sign on it. She's wearing a white kimono and her light green hair is placed in a bun atop her head. "I am Kusuri, the Goddess of Health on this island called Buushuu."

"Goddess?"

She sits down and a bottle of sake magically appears. She takes a sip from the bottle without pouring a cup. "Back to what I was saying' Do you want to live?"

I answer immediatly. "Yes, of course I do!"

She laughs again. "My body is aging, as is my spirit. I'm afraid that I've been alive for too long and am now starting to wish for death." She takes a swig of the alchohol. "I invited you here because you have potential to house my powers and be the new godess of Buushuu. You can't deny these powers; they're yours and yours alone. Only you can be the one to house and use them. As i recall, you just died by a burglar, so you are in no position to even think about refusing my offer." She snaps her finger. My body feels light and fluffy, as if I'm on clouds. "I'm going to send you to another time where your existence might be a bit more acceptable to society. If I just left you in your current time, they'd surely call you a witch or a herald and burn you at the stake."Without a single word of protest, She sends me away.
