The Last Elementalist

Part 1 - History

Edited: 27 december 2022

Around three thousand years ago, a small group of people found each other after fleeing their country. All hunted. All outcasts. All were feared. All had unique kekkei genkai which was the very reason they were being hunted in the first place. They were different. Dangerous. And thus they had to die or so that is what the villagers of their respective villages must have thought.

 Many of their families were killed. This small group of individuals were the survivors of a genocide, pointless killing. Yet, they only sought peace. Not vengeance. Never vengeance. They sought a place where they could live and be themselves as unique as they are with their respective kekkei genkai. Free to use it and not be afraid to be hunted down and killed for it. Simply because of their heritage.

So they came together as they eventually found each other by coincidence. Must have been fate, some mysterious force or something like that. It was then and there that they decided, they should start building a village of their own. A village where they would be safe. Somewhere they wouldn't have to worry about their gifts. Where they would make their own clan and so they did. The names of these people, the founders were; Kaito Chisaka, Mio Hisakawa, Kazumi Takahashi, Kijoshi Takahashi and Yasuda Gin. 

Kaito was a young man, twenty three years old. Handsome. With his hair as white as snow and a skin just as fair. He had eyes so  pale and blue that they seemed to stare right into your soul and nobody would even be surprised if they could. He had a gift that was quite rare, even within his family only once every couple hundred years there would be another child born with this gift. And even then the child was usually killed if it only shows signs that he or she had possibly  inherited  the gift. Kaito has the power to control blood. A dangerous kekkei genkai to have, especially as a child since it is very very very hard to control and it is usually also linked to your emotions. It also comes with great hearing, he could hear heart beats from miles away. And once he picks up on your heartbeat, he could stop your heart and literally just pulverize it in seconds.... He was soon picked to be the leader of the village.

Mio, a girl of only eighteen, with a heart stronger than fire. Fiercer than the fastest lightning and sometimes louder than the loudest thunder. Her kekkei genkai just made sense with her character. Mio with her long white hair, with her bangs nearly hiding her big ocean blue eyes. She honestly looked quite similar to what you would think an angel would look like. Her kekkei genkai was lightning based. She could control lightning, it basically streamed through her veins engulfing her entire body at will. This was also highly connected to her moods and has caused some sticky situations where she accidentally killed someone. Therefore she was hunted down and, as fate would have it, met her future clan. 

Kazumi and Kijoshi. Thirty three years old. Long brown hair, brown eyes shining with wisdom. Twins. A man and a woman. Aside from their clothing and gender they look almost identical. Kazumi can see an attack before it is ever made. You could almost say she could see into the near future and Kijoshi can slow down time. Both useful kekkei genkai altough, according to Yasuda, not really impressive....

Now last but not least, at least according to himself, Yasuda Gin. Yasuda was twenty seven years old and has long black, black eyes and a fairly tan skin. Yasuda's kekkei genkai frightens most people, since he can awaken the dead although... It's a little more complicated than that. They're still dead. But none the less, it's a frightening ability. Besides that he was also a very skilled healer. The best you would ever meet. He was the closest to immortal men had become up until this day.

Combining their knowledge they created an illusion. Together they hid in the shadows and although outside the illusion everything may seem dark, inside it was lighter than anything you've ever seen before. It looked almost mystical. Heavenly. They finally had their place in this world, a place where they could live in harmony. In peace. Finally they didn't have to run anymore. They were finally free.

It wasn't that long until Kaito and Mio fell in love, they soon had a baby boy they named Shiro Chisaka. The two of them had seven more children after that. 

Eventually more people joined the clan as word traveled fast among those with a kekkei genkai. Word of a village where they could just live and be themselves. It seemed too good to be true, but it was better than good. The other founders married outside the clan, but their significant others were welcomed with open arms. The clan grew and grew, until it was as big as it is now one of the biggest clans in history and eventually everyone somehow had some relation to the other. One big family.
