Reiko managed not to cry out as she was thrown to the floor. Grandfather was in one of those moods, she had been pulled from her bed in the middle of the night, her arms were bound behind her which was making sitting up difficult, but she managed it, only to tense when the wakuzashi blade was placed at the side of her neck.
The smells of sake and plum wine were both thick in the air and she kept her eyes to the floor.
“Master! She’s your blood you can’t do this.” The speaker was one of the few that were nice to her, always sneaking her treats when her Grandfather’s treatment turned to abuse. Two men grabbed his arms.
“Shut up.” The blade moved away from her neck and she let out the breath she was holding. “She’s a waste of space. Not even worth having kept around this long. Her mother was just a whore that shared my name.” He turned to face the man forgetting about his nine year old granddaughter for the time being. She swallowed hard wishing that Kyo had kept his mouth shut. After all she had been the one to break curfew, only because she had gone to meet with the Gaijin detective that had information on her parents.
“I was the one that told her to leave the compound, if someone should take blame for this it should be me I failed you.” In the corner of her eye she caught him going to one knee, his fist to the floor.
“No! Kyo, don’t do this!” Reiko lunged forward, only to have the man who had thrown her down grab her shoulder shoving her back to her knees. The young girl struggled to get her arms free even when she watched in horror as the blade arched down.
