Insanity

Who I am...

I nervously ask the soldiers, "All of you know what I am, don't you?" They all glance to one another and laugh, finally another soldier speaks up and says, "Yes, you set almost everything and everyone on fire, your eyes turned as red as the night of the Red Moon itself, you grew hideous body parts and turned mental, satisfied with my answer?" I freeze, that's not what I am at all, that's all the prayer- no the rituals' fault. I question the soldiers one last time, barley able to move my lips with fear, "W-What exactly..........am I?" They all grit their teeth,"You are a DEMON!" What........ I fall to my knees, no- I can't be, I died- on the inside....... I clutch my heart where the warm feeling would comfort me and my soul. They all walk away and leave me to die, I scream out, "No!!!!! That can't be right! You can't.......be serious! Come back! Explain yourselves!" Please.......don't leave me alone forever.

I manage to move my body over to the corner, so no one can see who-no what I am. I think to myself about my past, did father know? If so, why did he never tell me what I was- my entire life up till now, I thought of myself as an outcast, and Unfamiliar, a girl with no classified race. All this time, I thought having no race to go to sucked, I was wrong, this is definetly-definetly worse. I put my head between my knees, and I cry, I want to stay, alone now. I want to cry and fall asleep forever, I want to stay in the darkness, so no one can fear me-not even fear my shadow. Why, am I adopted? Is that what it is, am I not even my father's biological child, am I adopted?! I hear footsteps, and turn around to see one of those horrible soldiers, he holds up what seems to be a leter, he throws it through the bars and it lands next to me. He walks away and I look at it, it is a letter, from-my father? The date seems to be a few months back, I knew it-General Seintire was hiding something from me, why? I open it and I read it.

Dear Lisanna,

My Dear daughter, with you in another country far from Zenonius, I can no longer bear this secret I have been hiding from you all this time-since the moment you were born. I don't know how to start this tragedy, I will start and tell you everything. It started long before you were born, I had met a woman, as beautiful as beautiful can be, I fell in love with that women and we moved in together, but never married. As that women became pregnant, she was pregnant with you. When you were born, I took a month off of my loyal duties as a high-class Exorcist to witness your birth, and take care of you. With you being my world's pride and love, I noticed something terribly wrong with you, I sensed a familiar presense, I tried to deny myself by telling my self it was nothing more that stress. However that lady had disappeared from my sight, one moment ago she was there, the next she disappeared. Another moment later, she appeared, however she was at the ceiling, looking straight towards us. She attacked us with her drool and fangs to eat us both, I took out my sword and hid you from her, she sensed where you were, and headed towards the closet, climbing like a tarantula. I stabbed her in the leg, she laughed and her head rotated round and around-worse than an owl. She then reached my face with tremendous speed and whispered to me, "Our daughter and I are Demons, creatures of the Underworld, and the darkness." When I looked up she disappeared through a black room she had summoned, and I fell and cried. I saw you, you had a black aura surrounding you, trying to eat your soul. I had saved you many times using my abilities, but I knew something was to be done, when you turned 2, I placed a seal on your powers and sealed them deep inside my soul. That's why I got sick for the rest of my life. I am sorry my dear daughter, but your mother is another Demon, she fooled me by possessing the body of another woman, and getting to me with those charms, she had fooled me, and I had never noticed she was hiding her true form. I never learned her true name. Ever since you left to become a Hunter, I knew the seal would not stay put because you are to far from me, and you will come into contact with many Demons, which will fasten the process of removing the seal permanently. Once the Red Moon arrives once again, I can not guarantee what will happen, brace yourself, you are Lisanna Selverine. What I told you is true, you must end the Demons, or else the Demon queen will defeat you. I am truthfully sorry Lisanna, I am you father, but I am also a fool. I love you darling daughter.
