Your eyes flipped open and you were lying on the hard ground, leaning against a tree. You wore a beautiful, white kimono with blue flowers on it. Even if you lived in the forest, you managed to keep the kimono as beautiful as it was when your mother gave it to you.

Your mother..she was the person you loved the most. Your father was a jerk who never spend time with you and who was always rude, mean and nasty. You hated him. But your mother was completly diffrent. She was a beautiful, lovely woman and was always there when you needed her. But on one day, your whole life changed.
You remember it like it just happened a few days ago, even if it's already 300 years ago.

You sat up and looked around, feeling a cold breeze blewing through your (h/c [=hair colour]), long hair. You stood up and started walking to the near by town.

/ Your POV/

Already 300 years passed...I remember it like it happened yesterday...The day where I became a yokai to give my mother a more happy life.

It was on a cold and snowy day, somewhen in december. Me and mother cooked while my father was sleeping, like most of the time. Everything was peacful, but suddenly a young boy bursted in and screamed:

"YOKAI! THE YOKAI ATTACK!"

I was like 17 years old and very scared of yokai, I let the knife fall on the ground and felt my heart pounding like a million times faster. My Mother told me to hide in the house. I was totaly shocked and didn't wanted to leave mother. She was the only person who loved Me...

My mother and father went out, leaving me all alone in the house. I was shaking and crying and I heard screams and laughter. I couldn't take it anymore and rushed out to look for mother. Everything was bruning and yokai were everywhere. The first one I saw was a yokai with red hair, yellow eyes and horns. In front of him were my mother and my father, near by getting killed from that guy. I ran over to them..

"STOP! PLEASE!", I yelled with tears streaming down my face. The yokai looked surprised at me and I heard my mother screaming "No!!! Run away (Y/N)!!!", but I totaly ignored her.

"Oh, what a beautiful girl we got here...", said the red-haired yokai and took my chin in his hands. I yelped by the feeling of his sharp nails slightly stringing in my flesh.

"What do I get if I spare their lifes?"

"Take my life and let them live in peace..", was all I said. That was one of my biggest wishes. That my mother can live happy. That might sound stupid, but I had reasons for wishing this.

After I said this sentence, the yokai grinned at me and everything suddenly went black. I heard my mother screaming and crying, as well as my father..

I slowly opened my eyes. I was in a cage, tied up with iron chains. My body felt heavy and weak, I wasn't able to move. I heard footsteps coming closer to my place and in the next moment, a handsome man with long, white hair, ears and tail showed up. He wore a purple kimono and looked at me like he was staring. Seconds later the red-haired yokai walked to him and I could hear them mumbling about something. The only thing I was able to catch was "Tomoe" and "Akuraou".

The white-haired guy opened my cage and walked towards me, looking into my (e/c [=eye colour]) eyes with his purple ones. He smirked and stroked my chin slightly where I suddenly felt a burning pain. I winced slightly and the guy only made a calming "shh" sound and taged a lock of my hair behind my ear.

"Akuraou spared your parents life and deleted their memory about the yokai attack and about you." My eyes slightly widdened as the guy told me this. Just as I was about to say something-

"Tomoe-sama! Akura-ou sama! We need you up here!", a female voice suddenly screamed. I winced again and the two yokai made their way upstairs...

After this, my memory of that day is not complete. I remember that the yokai's got attacked and I was able to flee, than I met a woman and my whole life completly changed. I became a wolf yokai. I also remember that I fell in love...

From that day on, I lived alone and wandered through the whole world until I settled myself in japan in a to me seeming beautiful town. But what reason do I even have to continue living my life? My parents are already dead and I have nothing to live for, right?

Everytime I question myself this, I remember him. That handsome, white-haired yokai. Even if he could already be dead, a voice always told me to continue searching for him. I have no idea who or what that voice could be, but I feel like I know the one behind the voice since I was born. Maybe it's some kind of spirit?

However, I decided to search the man in the town where the landgod has his shrine. I didnt thought that I would ever meet the landgod...but the future changes with every step I do.

And soon, my life will take a whole new change once again.
