Chapter 2 - Falling

Life had been difficult having had lost her parents at birth Taira had to grow without her real parents love. Adopted by a poor family which couldnt bear a child the family loved her as their own but society laughed at her and her family. She could not even go to school to learn with the other children because her family could not even afford to make her go to school. Her life and upbringing was going to make stronger or weaker.

Taira and her family would work hard for other people to manage to get the food on the table. She was happy with the love she recieved but her heart yearned for more. Taira was stubborn but in front of her family she was rather willing agreed to everything they said even when it hurted her she did not want to see her family in tears or to suffer.

At a young age she had to be mature. Taira had always watched how the nobles were dignified and respected but what she found in awe was that most of them had powers she had noticed this when her family received some work at a farm of a noblese. She had noticed some of the children of the noble families practising their martial arts and she fell in love.

Her father who noticed her face light up after seeing a unique seen felt disheartened because he knew the difference between the noble families and poor families. The poor families were known to not have any Chi, special abilities they were rather cast off.

To explain such difference to a child was painful he smiled lightly and brushed her head and said " I pray the heavens have a plan for you" not understanding her father she looked confused for a second and then smiled as if her father had given support to her new found love of martial arts.

As they went to work in plains of the noble family Taira would take too many breaks to see more of the noble children practise martial arts. She would smile and drool over the uniqueness of martial arts. While she was watching a boy from one of the rich noble families noticed her and felt disgusted that he shouted a beggar is not allowed near them this made the other children notice her.

Taira did not understand what was meant by the word "beggar" she stood straight with a bright smile but the boy came over and pushed repeating the words he had said, "Beggars are not allowed to be here , get away!!" ....as Taira landed on the ground she felt attacked her bright smile disappearing as anger covered she felt like attackinh the boy. Memories came back to her of how she has always been bullied of being an orphan, she stood up and ran away with tears about fall down het cheek.
