    Aimlessly, Donna was plodding sluggishly. The clock had hit the 4 am. She was in the search of peace and was wandering on countryside to find serenity. She wanted her mind to stay tranquil rather than filled by chaos. It was still dark. Moon was glinting. Everyone was in deep slumber but she was restless and plodding. It was the end of spring in Italy. She was at the EUR district. She looked at the beauty of that place. The trees of cherry blossoms bloomed already. But some splendid beauty of those blossoms still alive. She stirred and moved forward. A single blossom bloomed and landed on her cheek. She thumped it and looked. It was like blossoms wanted to say, "stay happy and enjoy the beauty of this world. Don't let anyone to invade your tranquil life. Let the thing dropped on their own." Again, a blossom landed on her nose. The blossoming started. She curved her lips into a smile. "Daughter, always remember that these cherry blossoms are the flower of birth, so delicate and fragile like a human existence. It cherishes and blooms the world and then disappears leaving behind their rare splendour beauty." She was reminding her mother's word when she was five, which made a gush of blood flow into her veins. --------------------------------------------------------- Date- 6 July, 2020, from today, I am going to edit my this book again as it is not upto mark for me and I want to do justice with my book!! Caution- i write the story when I was 16, so it may become cringe sometimes.

    He was a boy no one ever chose. An orphan passed from one home to the next, never staying long enough to belong, never wanted enough to be kept. He learned early how to make himself small, quiet-unnoticeable. It didn't matter. No matter how carefully he lived, the end was always the same. Thrown away. Monster. Freak. Demon. The names followed him, clinging tighter than any memory of kindness ever could. Then, everything changed. His latest foster parents were found dead-no signs of struggle, no explanation... and no one left to take him in. Until a man appeared. The enigmatic principal of the elite Tashuuiy High. A school reserved for the gifted. The exceptional. The untouchable. And somehow- He wanted him. Offered to sponsor him. To give him a place. But at Tashuuiy High, nothing is ever what it seems... and some monsters aren't the ones hiding in the shadows.

    Sawamura Daichi, unassuming captain, is a Devil Child Centuries ago, the gods decided to interfere with humanity after predicting that if humans continued as they were, they would stray from the path they were meant to walk. So the gods and spirits decided to occasionally change a part of the soul of a few children, one in a few thousand, so that they may have the chance to change the world, making these children not just human but either part god or spirit depending on who changed their soul. These children would be blessed with powers for life, powers depending on which god claimed them. But, every once in a while, a god would mess up and change a soul too much, making there be too much god in them, causing the child's life to fall into ruin with limited control and a mark of this, be it as having cats ears, a purple forked tongue, or ram horns. These people are called akuma no ko, or Devil Children. They are persecuted and discriminated against because of the gods mistakes. Karasuno VBC is made entirely up of people who are part god and/or spirit, including their managers, coach, and faculty advisor. All except for their beloved captain. But that's a lie. Because even though they think he's normal, he's just hiding his identity as an akuma no ko.

    When 25-year-old Elara Quinn wakes up after a car accident, she expects hospital lights and sirens-not cherry blossoms and ancient shrines. Transported from modern-day New York to a mystical, historical Japanese realm, Elara finds herself caught between worlds, with no memory of how-or why-she crossed the veil. Guided by a mischievous tanuki and haunted by visions of a forgotten priestess, Elara stumbles upon a sacred scroll and a mysterious kitsune who claims to know her soul. As the forest whispers secrets and the Moonfire Temple calls, Elara must uncover the truth behind her arrival, her connection to a vanished guardian, and the magic that binds them all. But in a land where memory is power and spirits walk beside you, the journey to belonging may be more dangerous-and more beautiful-than she ever imagined.
