Italicized words: thoughts 

" I love you Y/n, I love you honey"  

" No! Mom! Dad!" Y/n woke up sweating remembering what happened to her she closed her eyes and calmed herself taking a few deep breaths. After a while she found herself in an unfamilliar room. "Excuse me, is anyone there?" she shouted then entered a woman who she thought to be around the same age as her mother. 

" You're awake, how are you feeling dear?" asked the woman. " I'm fine just a bit tired thank you. Where am I?" she asked as the woman opened the door letting the sunlight in. " This is Okutama dear." said the woman smiling at Y/n. " I see " Y/n simply answered as she realized that she was wearing a different kimono or yukata. " what the-" she exclaimed as the woman saw her expression. " Ahh if you're looking for your clothes , its right outside drying. I washed since it was a pretty kimono but it had blood along , I hope you don't mind." the woman said sitting down beside Y/n. " Ohh it's okay, thank you for that ." said Y/n smiling sweetly at the woman. " If you're hungry you can just come to the kitchen just past two doors to the right. And your things are rigth over there at the side. Well then see you later." said the woman and left while Y/n went to get her things. She only had the hair clip given to her by her mother, the small pouch, and her fan which surprisingly you didn't lose despite the ruckus that happened.

2nd Person's POV

Your fan was given to you by your Father. He wanted to train some basic skills with a knife but you had accident when your were 8 yrs. old and from then on you hated anything small and sharp that could hurt you. So after that incident you decided to use a fan not only was that it wasn't sharp but it was only beautiful. You're Father didn't really want to use that at first but after he saw your flexible and graceful movements with the fan he let it be so. Although he intended for you to know how to fight, he just made it so that you knew how to defend yourself without attacking. He treated your fan as it was just the blunt side of the sword so that he could visualize what you can do with it. The days turned to months and the months turned to years and you were now able to defend yourself as long as you have it. You had a few techniques you can use even without it but you are stronger with you holding it. 

Without realizing, you were unconciously smiling as tears threatened  to fall again remembering your memories with your Father but you simply wiped them knowing that he didn't raise you as a crybaby. Spoiled yes but you were not a crybaby.  After a while you fixed your things and decided to eat since your were feeling hungrier than normal. " Umm excuse me" you said softly not knowing who was there but then you saw the same woman earlier cleaning the kitchen. " Ahh you're here, come and sit down I will just prepare your food." she said and did so as you sat down not making any sound. 

As soon as the food was right in front, you immediately started eating still looking graceful, how surprising. The woman was just watching you eat and somehow you felt uncomfortable. " Um, is there something on my face?" you asked politely and she just smiled then said. " Well for a young lady you sure can eat quite a lot." " Oh, I don't normally eat this many but I'm really feeling so hungry. I must've been so tired from all the running i did yesterday." you answered taking another big bite of the tempura. " Yesterday? Oh dear you're mistaken, you've been asleep for a week now." said the woman smiling as her words made you choke on your food.

3rd Person's POV 

***Coughc, cough, cough...*** " What? A week? No wonder I'm so hungry , why didn't you tell me earlier you-" y/n paused not knowing what to call her . " Ahh you can call me Yuriko and also you didn't ask." she said slightly smiling at you. " This woman can be really frustrating, how could she not tell me I was asleep for a week now?" Y/n thought. " Just forget about it" she said and continued to eat feeling a bit annoyed at the woman. 

When she finished eating, she went to their backyard and saw three little children playing around chasing each other. " Haru nii-chan, Kota - niichan slow down." said the little girl with pig tails and red kimono while trying to chase what seemd to be her two older brothers. " You're just really slow Yuri." said the boy wearing green kimono " Haru- niichan's right Yuri, you gotta be able to catch us if you wanna be a strong woman someday." said the other boy with a blue kimono as they continued running until they say Y/n watching. " Hey, the beautiful neechan is awake." said Yuri and ran to her. " Hey Yuri don't be rude, you don't even know her." said Haru, the green kimono boy and then followed their little sister. " How are you beautiful oneechan?" Yuri asked sweetly making smile at her and sat down at the patio. " I'm fine now thank you, what's your name little gir?" Y/n asked. " I'm Yuri , how about you?" said the little girl " You have a beautiful name Yuri -chan, my name is Y/n" patting the little girls' hair. " Yours is beautiful too, can I call you Y/n- neechan?" Yuri asked with a smile melting Y/n's heart. " She's so cute, she worthy to call me by name" Y/n thought. " Of course you can " she answered noticing the two boys nearing her. " Hello you two come closer I won't bite" said Y/n while smiling at them as they went closer to her. Y/n saw that they were both very cute and handsome and squealed inside trying to stop herself from hugging them. " So what're you're names?" she asked and they answered. " I'm Haru the oldest and this is Kota my little brother " said Haru. " How old are you guys?" she asked as they all sat down. " I'm 11 yrs. old" said Haru, "I'm 9 yrs. old" said Kota, " and I'm 6 yrs. old" said Yuri using her fingers too but she was showing 7 of her fingers which made made Y/n chuckle. " Yuri dear you're showing me 7, this is 6" she said folding one of yuri's finger.
