FLASH BACK
Asakura [a-zock-oo-ra] stood at the roaring falls! Her long beautiful black hair was swaying in wind like a flock of birds. Each strand of hair collecting together in the most beautiful way. She too was beautiful alone. Asakura Natsuba Moorukain. She was destined to be Queen of Nazooreth. Her mother, and father, queen and King of their town.
It was one dark night where Asakura secretly left her palace to meet with Zaraoung [zara-young]. He was a poor illeagal emmagrant, but he was still handsome.He had biceps, triceps, and a heart of gold. Not to mention his beautiful locks of hair that dangled down pershibly to his incredible body. The two had met one day in the market. It started off as a small friendship, but their relationship became intense. It was to the point where it became completely necesseary for them to meet. The only thing about it was that their love was forbidden. Not only was it bad enough he was an illegal immagrant, and he was poor, but Asakura was a princess, and it was her destiny to one day become queen. Therefore making it a complete discrase for her to even be in his presence.
So their meetings had to be secret. Their meetings began behind buildings of their town, where they had small talks and ocassionaly a kiss good bye, but it was too crowded and anyone could have easily reconized them together. So they traveled through an underground passage that ledthe most beautiful waterfall the two had ever seen. Who would ever notice a more delightful place to be underground?
"Askura, I must go. I know this will be difficult, but I must leave you here!" Zaraoung tried to explain to Askuara, but she didn't understand. "I don't understand Zaraoung, why should you flee the town so soon? Our meetings have been secret for a long time now, no one will know, and besides, I love you, and I can't bare to see you go! Please do not leave Zaraoung!" Zaraoung felt bad enough as it was. "Look, I'm sorry, but I must leave. You see I told one of my friends about our forbidden love. I thought I could trust him, but I was wrong. His vengons are growing with every moment, and I'm sorry, but I just cannot risk getting you and I both killed. I don't want you to pay the price of death for me? And who knows, I'll come back again, maybe as another person."
Zaraoung tried to smile and encourage her to smile too, but it didn't work. Her eyes were filled with tears of sorrow and betrayal.
A Bliss wind blew across them, and the light from their candle quickly blew away. "I must go my love. The train for the next city arrives very soon, and unless you are ready to die for me, I must go." He pressed his gentl lips against hers, and carresesed her face before standing on his feet and leaving her in sorrow.
The next day the sun arose bright and early. Asakura had fallen asleep in the passageway underground. The noise from angry villagers had woken her. She slowly made her way into the daze that soon became her worst nightmare. There before her eyes were many people, and a pole where her love hung lifless from one braided rope. Her eyes began to water as her father poured oil on the body that hung there, and a torch of fire was thrown on him. His body burned there before her eyes, turning from the flesh that she loved, to a pile of ashes that she despised. "Had you only not told of our love, my despise for you now would not exsist."
PRESENT TIME
Asakura gazed at herself in the tall mirror that relflected her body. There she was in the most beautiful wedding gown made from the finest of silks and cloths, and veil that halfway covered the most amazing aquamarine eyes anyone could ever gaze upon. "Well, here I am. My wedding." Asakura said under her breath. Here it was, the wedding of Asakura Moorukain and Atsubi [a-zats-su-be] Higurashi.
A gentle knock came upon the door that closed her dressing room, and then an outburst from her soon to be husband Atsubi. "Darling, you must hurry, our wedding is finally here. The day that I get to make you my wife! Yes!" His eyes were dark with greed and he was pratically druling. "You look ravishing my dear." He closed the door behind him and latched the lock. "Let me get a closer look at you."
"Don't come any closer Atsubi! I'll lay things down for you just as they should have been a long time ago. You betrayed Zaraoung and I four years ago. Now he's dead. I don't want to marry you and I'll be killed dead alive before I let you touch me!" "Not so hasty dear, I love them fiesty. Let's just cut to the chase. In about 3 hours, you'll be Mrs.Asakura Higurashi, and you're going to be darn proud of it. I'm rich, you're rich, and we'll be queen and King over this town. You'll love me, and when this wedding is over you'll be hours away from any civilization for a week, and I'll have you in bed before night fall. So get used to it! I'll see you down the isle my love." And with a loud SLAM he left the room and his bride to be speechless.
" I despise you Zaraoung! Had you not trusted him, I wouldn't have to go through such misery!"
