The drums pounded loudly throughout the small village as small children smiled and played and the smell of many meats filled the brisk autumn air. Since i could remember the harvest festival was always bright and beautiful filled with lights happiness and joy as many foxman joined together to celebrate the end of the warmth of summer to welcome in the winter.
"Hollow! Hollow where are you?!"
I turn to the calling of my name to see my young sister with stress in her eyes.
Hollow-"what is it May whats wrong?"
May-"the dancer cancelled for the fan dance and nobody knows it except you and me but i well"
Hollow-"i know you have stage fright i understand i will do it then."
May-"really thanks big bro now you need to get dressed ok hurry!"
Hollow-"ok ok i will shesh"
I walked threw the village square as may lead the way i looked to see the red dogwood tree in full bloom as the red petals blew for the stone street.
May-"Ok Hollow were here"
Hollow-"ok sis i will make you proud" i walked into the room and saw are clans traditional fan robes showing the bright red colors of the dogwoods outside i had done this before but i was young and had little rhythm.
I put on the robe and hairpiece and watched as my long white hair clashed with the briliant colors i heard the loud drum pounds as it anoused the time to perform was to begin i swayed out on the wooden stage as i waved the golden fan back and forth i twirled around as to match the beat of the drum i saw that everyone had gone silent as the dance i special to are kind and is not to be tampered with or ruined. When the song ended the drum pounded one last time as i bowed for the end of the song i looked up to see the people of my precious town smiling with joy and excitement as the song was over meaning good luck this year.
"Ahhhhhh!!"
I heard a small screams echo from the front of the village i watched as people screamed and yelled as blood splatered acrossed food boths and others as men of not are kind murdered with no pitty my .
May-"Hollow run!"
I turned my head to see my sister holding her bloody arm i immediately ran towards her but stoped when in one fail swoop her neck sliced as a man kicked her to the floor i yelled in horror what was happening i did as my sister ask and ran i watched as my fellow foxmen screamed in pain as they were staped and murdered i ran to the edge as i watched the town burn with my familys legacy and my kinds last village. I ran into the forrest crying as the moon glowed high in the
I need to stay alive i needed too or i failed them all it was so fast how could that happen i stopped to sit and rest i had been running for hours my eyes burned with tears as i layed thinking of how i was most likely the last of my kind.
