The date was December 20th, in the year 2024. Christmas was coming around and everyone was excited. Especially a certain 18 year old girl named Jane Vixen, as she awaits for the pedestrian lane lights to shine green in order for her to cross to the other side. She excitedly waits as she held on a few bags of groceries meant for celebrating the 12:00 am of Dec 25, to eat at exactly 12:00 am and celebrate Christmas Eve. The ingredients were in the bag she brought.
The girl was all Giddy, shaking in excitement as she waits for the light to turn green. And as soon as it does, she takes the first step and enters the lane to cross to the other side. She took her first steps on her way to get back home...However...
*SKID*
The sound of a car's tires got closer towards her at an alarming pace. It got closer as lights illuminated the girl, catching her attention. She look to her left to see...2 lights. It shined brightly, blinding her vision when all of a sudden, the blinding lights were replaced by darkness.
All she could see now was dark. Nothing, only empty darkness. This was only brief however as her eyes open to reveal figures of humans, looking down on her. The figures were blurry, as if her eyes needed glasses to see at least 5 feet in front of her. More flashes of white light appeared in front of her, but only lasted for brief moments, coming out of blurry small black rectangular shapes held at hand by the people. It was phones.
The people around her took pictures of her now bloodied body from the accident. The car that had lost control can be seen totaled and wrecked, crashed into a metal pole of the street lamp. The driver was safe from the emergency airbag, but the car's front went inside itself. But the same can't be said about the girl.
The girl was all bloodied, numb and unmoving. Only her eyes appeared to have life. It moved left and right to see and make sense of the area, but it didn't. She couldn't feel her body or anything, but she knows she can at least move her eyes.
But with due time, her vision began to blur into a fade of black darkness, going back into nothing. She knows her eyes are still open but their are closing her vision. She tried desperately to open her already open eyes, try to open her mouth to prove that she was still living in this world, and was only severely injured.
But it was futile, the more she struggled, the more it slow it became to becoming dark. It painfully delayed the inevitable. Until, it turned off. The switch of her life turned off, permanently killing her. Quite tragic, to die a near the Christmas, a day that was important to everyone, to feel happy and celebrate...But even then, miracles can happen.
Her eyes open once more, it opened to a wooden crib, a crib made of wood and had dangling ornaments meant for a child.
'H-Huh? Where am I?' She tried to speak but only small gibberish came out of her mouth. "Just...what is going on here?Â
Her eyes only stared up as she still couldn't move her head properly. However, a voice rang from a distance. The voice seemed to belong to a Burly, aged up, and possibly muscular man. "My baby girls awake! My sweet baby girls awake!" A big burly man appeared and held Jane by her 2 armpits.
'Wh-who's this guy?! This guy's huge!' Jane's thoughts were in a panic by the individual.
"My sweet baby Jane's awake! Just look at you! Just like your mother!" The burly man spoke with affection and glee from just seeing Jane wake up.
Her entire body couldn't move properly as she only manages to wiggle her limbs. her hands wiggle up and down as well her legs wiggling around in a circle. "My little girls gonna grow all big and strong, just like her father!" The burly man smiled as his beard that reached his chin and mustache flared with happiness.
Jane was confused now. Despite a terrifying, intimidating and burly man was holding her like a baby, as she currently is, she feels calm...and even comfortable. Her instincts tells her to smile at the man, she doesn't know why but her whole body signals for her to trust this burly man.
'Just what really is going on? Jane was brought and carried by the burly man gently and outside of the house.
From there, it revealed a courtyard between 3 living quarters. In the middle of the courtyard, stood a tall, and intimidating figure. The man was taller than the one who was carrying Jane and had a beard that barely reached his stomach area. He exude somewhat of a serious and dignified aura around him, as if he was someone who is always on guard and is ready to strike.
The said man sat down under a tree that had pink leaves as he drank tea beneath it, having sat down on a mat and a small table that could only fit 4 small sake cups and a tea set. He looks towards Jane's direction and spoke.
"Brother John, you seem to be in quite the happy mood." The man spoke to the one who was carrying Jane in a dignified tone. "Of course I am. My sweet Jane just woke up, just look at her, brother Gin!"
John held up Jane in front of the man, who he referred to as Gin. The latter scoffed and grabbed Jane away from Jane, making Jane panic. 'Oh my god! His seriously scary!!!' Her thoughts panicked immensely towards Gin. "You cannot just fling her around like that, brother John." Gin scolded John, as the latter smiled. "Come on! Let me show off my daughter once in a while! After all, she's gonna be your son's playmate!"
"True. Boyd would love Jane's company." And so, the two brothers seemingly went off on talking.
Jane just listened in, still a bit afraid of the two, more so that the one called Gin than the one that was now her father, John. She had already realized that she had died and was reincarnated into a new body when she was picked up. A baby girl who was also named Jane Vixen. And with the surrounding buildings resembling designs of the old ages, it seems she also went back in time.
Jane was thankful but also afraid of this new world. To be the daughter of this strong, burly and muscular John Vixen. While also being the niece of an intimidating, tall, and elegantly bearded Gin Kang. Now, she doesn't know if she should look forwards to it, or dread it. Either way, she is left with no choice but to...Be this general's daughter.
