Lilies.

The smells of lovely lilies flower, I always smells, everytime I had closed my eyes recently. And along with that smell of lilies scent, appear, I often dreamt a figured of a person.

At first it was blurred, but after days to weeks, and weeks turn to months, and months turn to years, it getting more cleared.

I want to denied that dream, and want to think it just only a dream that mean nothing.

But I couldn't. Every day, since the day I was admit into the hospital for a serious injury that threatens my life. I often notice a scent of lilies, but when I was be hospitalised, I never received of lilies flower at all. And the hospital doesn't have a Lili flower in the flower display on the reception places.

I try to remember back where did I think I have ever smells that scent of lilies before, buy I just couldn't. Because everytime I try to recall it, I feel a very sharp pain on my head.

And at the same time my heart fell likes it was being torn apart. And it hurts, in way a word cannot describe.

Like I have missing someone who really to me, but I just cannot remember it.

Just is it...the person I want to remember, but just couldn't...

Without I even realize it, a tears drop from my eyes.

It's hurt's. It hurts so much, that I couldn't contain it anymore. All the feeling I have feel.

Frustrated, anger, anxious, sadness. All of those feelings mixed up together.

But I don't know why. Why I can't remember it?

But deep down in my heart, even the wound was there, but I have this feeling that one day I will remember those things that I had forgot.

I'm sure one day, I will remember it back.

I look out my hospital room windows, and thank goodness, I didn't forget about who I am.

My name is Richard Kusanagi. 20 years old. I'm mixed. Half Japanese and English. On my mother side is Japanese, while my father was English. But lives in Japan. In my mother homelands.

Like any typical half, in my family, being mixed is not the uncommon things. In fact, in my family from my mother side, her family's basically all was a mixed.

And to be frank, I took after my mother maiden name. Not my father family name, which by the way was called Collins.

But for years I hadn't used that name. Because for there was a secrets, involved mother side of family.

The truth is... my mother family wasn't a regular or normal family. Let's just says that the Kusanagi family, my mother side of the family, is a family of magic user.

For many generations of my mother family members, have been blessed with magical powers. Each of the family member born with different types of power.

But what make my mother was different is that she's not a completely the Kusanagi family. She was also a half, but not the half of race, but different on the power that she has possess.

The Kusanagi family family members always being blessed with power that using they mentally abilities likes telekinesis, empathy, levitation, teleportation and other of the mental using power. And also they can use a certain power of elements. Like water, wind and earth.

But never fire. Never in the Kusanagi family member born with power of manipulate fire element. And that also include with power over manipulate lighting and ice elements too.

But that traditional was being blown up, in my grandmother generations. It all started with my grandmother. A mother for my mother.

It's start with my grandfather, name Kazuma Kusanagi.

He was a youngest in the Kusanagi family. He was the fifth son in the family. He have other four older brother, but as time passed, all of his older brother died. With his father, my great grandfather, named Brian Kusanagi, and my great grandmother, Suzanne Kusanagi.

My grandfather was 7 years old, when his parents and brother's left the Kusanagi mansion, and never returned. Leaving him with great great grandmother on his father side.

He was still young to out and serve as part of the Kusanagi family member as a hunters.

That's what it is. The Kusanagi family is a family of Hunter. And they hunts not an ordinary things like wild animals.

The thing they hunts was a magical and supernatural creatures. It's just took only one night, he left alone, by losing all of his family.

*His father, mother, and all of his big brother's. He left with only with his great great grandmother, who raised him by herself.

Entire his family member being brought back to the Kusanagi mansion in the body bag. Liveless. A cold dead body be brought back to him.

From that moment onwards, he vowed to himself that he will become stronger, so he can carry his family name and responsibilities as a Kusanagi family member.

Time passed, he grown up into a fine young adult.

And like the other Kusanagi family member, he also be blessed with powerful gift and abilities.

And he became a well full- fledgling young and strong Hunter. But even so he already reached age to settle down and have family of his own, never it came to his mind for him to find a well decent women, get married and have family of his own.

He never think about it, until one day, he on a mission, hunting a scatter monsters, in the Southern forest, far from his Family Mansion, and base.

He dealt with the magical creatures that kills a cattle and a farmer's livestock. And cause a problem for it can make the existence of magic being exposed to the ordinary people.

And it can cause trouble to the other Hunter do they work in peace.

Kazuma take down almost of all the creatures, but a few of the creatures get away and flee and run into the deepest forest.

Kazuma lost sight of that creatures whereabouts, not knowing he being stalked and almost being ambushed killed by that creatures.

That creatures doesn't eat human, but they do kills everything that got into they way.

Kazuma almost lost his life in that mission, even he was with another Hunter who helped him in that mission. But by numbers, that creatures was outnumbered him and the other fellow Hunter that with him at that time.

He and his Hunter time was being take down, some was seriously injured, and a few was dead.

When Kazuma thought that is the end of his life and as the last Kusanagi family member, he was ready to accept death, he closed his eyes. Waiting for his death to be.

But then in instant,

A group of kunoichi( female ninja) appears and take down entire of that's creatures.

All of that the kunoichi wear an identical outfits, and also they wear a mask cover they face.

But their masks was unlike any mask that he have ever seeing. A mask of animals, but like a bird. Not a regular looking bird mask.

It was reddish and golden birds masks. Like phoenix mask.

Kazuma realize it in instant. The Hinotori Clan.

The Hinotori Clan is a hidden Clan of Shinobi/ninja. But all of the the members of the Clan is a female ninja. They represent the strongest Clan of female ninja, and they also known as a phoenix ninja.

Where they specialise in fire element ninja technic. All the members of clan born with a gift of being a ninja since the day they were born. And like it presents they name as Hinotori Clan, or know as Fire Bird, one of the Clan member was being given possession power of phoenix, and the one with phoenix power being called a clan leader*.
