You know how people say there's a light at the end of the tunnel? Well, I'm pretty sure I'm seeing it now and I wish I hadn't.

Being reborn felt weird. Being born again felt weirder. Especially when you when it's all nice and warm then suddenly you can see the light in the darkness. The darkness starts to squeeze you and your feeling yourself being half-pulled half-pushes out. That's what being born feels like. And I don't want to do it again.

My eyes instinctively shut when I came out, crying like no tomorrow. I could see the light penetrating through my eyelid and shadows briefly flicker over.

"He's a healthy baby boy, Lady Hinata," I hear a woman say.

I pick up the name as I feel water and a rag washed over my body. I'm then swaddled up and passed to another's arms.

"He's so beautiful." Another woman says, her voice tired but happy as she holds me. This must be my mother, I note.

I feel a body loom over the two of us, blocking out the sunlight. Taking the chance, I slowly open my eyes and look up. Out of the corner of my peripherals, I see a man towering over as he smiles at my mother. This must be my father. Focusing back on my mother, I take her in. Long, brown hair and purple eyes. She was a subtle beauty, that always looked calm and seemed like a caring person. She also looked very tired, her voice not betraying that fact. I felt my eyes drift shut as I stare at my mother. Maybe, this will be a new beginning for me.
