Year 622 of The New God Era.
BOOOM "Huh… what happened, what with that loud boom??" My grandfather, my grandmother, and my dad burst into the room yelling " Happy 8th birthday Fuijiyama !!!" I forgot it was my birthday, I've been so busy studying with Grandma. She has been teaching things like etiquette, how to cheat merchants formally known as "haggling", the use of money, the world continent,
secret ninjutsu, and assassination techniques. Why you may ask? Good question I don't know either, this is my Grandma's answer "To know thy enemy you must know thyself" whatever that means. Today is the day I'll also learn what my attributes are!!! I'm so excited, my father and grandfather are variant type attributes and that is "steel-type magic". My grandfather always brags about" how he is good with all weapons and that his nickname is all arounder" and I just laugh at him. I love my family so much, I wish Mom could see it… My mother is still laying on her sickbed while the Yōkai takes care of my mother, the Yōkai are my grandmother's spirit familiars. Their names are Suzaku and Fugaku, they can either look like humans or monsters, it's up to them. They have been helping my family give birth to the children as their doctors for generations, their family to me, and everyone here.
*later in the evening*
My father finally speaks after stuffing his face with food" Shall we start the gift ceremony? "I'm excited, my grandpa starts by giving me a family heirloom. It is an emblem that is very intriguing and odd, it has a shield with a book on top, a spear going diagonally through the shield, a sword going through the shield diagonally, and a lance piercing the center.
After that, he gives me a full set of clothes with that weird emblem on it, he tells me to try it on. So I put it on, "it's too big," I told my grandfather. He said "Hit the emblem on your chest " so I did what I was told then it changed to fit me. My eyes opened in shock. Grandpa tells me there's more than one function including the outfit that can change into any set of clothes the wearer may see, auto cleaning magic, self-repair magic, and self-defense magic.
As I hug my grandpa saying" thank you ", my father approaches and hands me two metal bracelets. While saying " The medal bracelets are called "weapon gauntlets" They change depending on the weapon you intend to fight with. Our family is known to be "all-arounders". It means we use and master every weapon and style including fist and martial arts." My jaw drops " Wait so Grandpa wasn't kidding when I was younger?!?" Father responds with a serious face "Yes and follow me outside."
As I follow my dad and grandpa outside, I see it's a full moon. I see a ruby rose gem the size of a bowling bowl under the moon shining like a beautiful sunset in the mountains. Grandma said "Come child we don't have much time. '' As she chants in an unknown language I feel tightness in my chest as if something is awakening in me. My body is hot and cold, half of my body is big like fathers was that day he and Grandpa were arguing when I was 3 years old. The other half is small like my normal self. My grandmother looks toward my father and grandad, while my father picks up the prior sunset red now blood-colored ball. My grandma says "Do it now !!!" to my grandpa as he forces me to touch the red ruby ball. I yell in agonizing pain as I see my eyes change color. From all black eyes to one white eye, to two blue eyes, my eye color continues to change as if my attributes are taking the form of my eye color. It's weird I've read many books but never heard anything like this with others awakening the abilities. "This torture will continue to sunrise." said my grandma.
* Sunrise*
Finally, my eyes return to normal but my grandma touches my head with her glowing fingers and I lose control as if all the power in my body walked out and left my body behind. I woke up laying in my bed the next morning.
