There was once a girl who could see what others could not
There were some that didn't believe her and treated her as a freak by saying such horrid things in order to isolate her from their groups, not that she wanted to anyways. Others who believed her wanted her dead,
It was always the same with her mother and her grandmother. They were hated to the point that even death had claimed them without warning.
Cursed like her for being so different, despite the fact that they were kind and caring people.
She was always alone and hated for being so different.
Even those who did not know her wanted to hurt her.
It left her sad and crushed to know that such people existed.
She was at a loss of what to do, the reason being that she didn't know why she was hated so much. What did she do to provoke their negative advances?
But alas she had a secret no one knew, only her friend knew and she could never be seen by anyone except the girl.
This girl had a special hearing ability that allowed her to hear the hearts and emotions of others. Some called it Reishi while others called it being a psychic.
She didn't know who to believe since some had called her a demon child.
It reduced her to be recluse from the company of others whether she wanted to or not.
One day she traveled and a single cherry blossom petal floated towards her just like back when she was a baby. This petal however formed itself into a white dove that stayed beside her at all times and once it disappeared the petal would remain intact to her surprise. The dove spirit told her that one night when she goes to sleep, someone will be waiting for her.
But who? She did not know until the next night. A woman dressed up in a white yukata stood before her. Her eyes shone with pride and sadness.
A favour was asked by the woman, who had the look of someone who was grieving. Seeing how honest the woman was in her dreams, the girl agreed without wanting anything in return.
"You're a good girl" the woman had smiled before another person the girl considered a friend deserted her just for 'being in the way'; it had left her utterly devastated and distraught that her friend would do such a thing. Until that same night someone had broke into her house and tried to kill her without warning. Unable to defend herself she stood, but to her horror the person was killed in front of her leaving her clothes caked in blood.
Images of when she was three appeared in her mind causing her to kneel on the floor in shock. She then touched the person and in their place a perfect replica of her as it appeared before them. But before she could leave a portal appeared beneath the girl leaving her screaming in terror as it sent her through the never ending black hole.
What was going on?
Why did this have to happen to her of all people?
She just wanted to be happy and free from the never ending pain, was that too much? Apparently so if they all wanted her dead.
The question was why?
Maybe finding out the truth will remain a mystery to her.
