Empty Eyes



Prologue:

A girl is running into the forest as fast as she can. She appears to be running from a man that is chasing her with a knife in his hand. Crystal tears are rolling down the girl's cheeks as she continues to run from him.

She runs out of the forest and runs down the shore of an ocean. The man catches up to her and pounces on her. The girl struggles to get up but the man pins her down with his knees while holding the knife in one hand.

"Doshite...why couldn't you be a son, why was I cursed with you?" said the man. "Your mother promised me a son and I go you!" The girl's head turned side to side as she cried and stared fearfully up at the man.

"Otto-san.....gomen," sobbed the girl. "I tried to be the son you wanted but its so hard, the kids at school pick on me and I-" The slap that the man delivered to her face silenced her. Her head turned and she focused her vision on a single seashell resting on the damp sand as she felt the stinging pain from the slap.

"Shut up," growled the man. "I had enough of your whining and crying. Men do not cry, you are not worthy to be my son." The man lifted the dagger upward. "You mother died and left you with me. I'll never forgive her for that." The girl eyes widened and she struggled with all her might.

"Iie! Damei onegai!" screamed the girl. "I can't help that I'm not a boy! WHY CAN'T YOU LOVE ME FOR ME?!" The man plunged the dagger right into the girl's heart, which silenced her. Tears filled her eyes as she turned her head to the side and whispered "Doshite..". That was her very last word.

The man stood up as blood dripped from his hands. He stared down at his dead daughter and glared. Blood poured out of her wound and stained her clothing and the cold, wet, sand.

"I can never forgive you for being a girl," growled the man. "I'll find another women and she will give me a true son. I hoped that during these years that I had you, you would've turned into the son I longed for. Your nothing but a failed experiment." The turned away from his daughter's corpse and walked away.

The man disappeared into the forest. Above the beach, a figure stood on a street light. The figure stared at the dead body with a smirk on its face. It seemed to have found the scene entertaining. The figure suddenly vanishes as the sun started to rise. The ocean waves gently push at the girl's body until they finally dragged the body into the coldness of the water.
