Beginning

(Mizu and Ayumi practice their sword skills)

Mizu: (Falls to the ground) ouch!

Ayumi: Get back up we need to practice more, there is a limited amount of time till I leave for the ceremony.

Mizu: Ceremony?

Ayumi: Did father not tell you?

Mizu: No, what is happening?

Ayumi: Father is stepping down from his position and leaving me with his duties. 

Mizu: You mean you will become the lord of our village? 

Ayumi: Not only that but I plan on getting married.

Mizu: Married!!! To who? When? Why?

Ayumi: Calm down, his name is Yoru. We plan on holding the wedding ceremony in 2 weeks.

Mizu: And you never bothered to tell me?

Ayumi: I was planning to, but I knew that you would throw a fit like this.

Mizu: Of course I would, you are getting married which means you will leave me behind.

Ayumi: (concerned) Mizu (said in a gentle voice)

Mizu: (Crying) I'm scared, I do not want to be alo-

Ayumi: (Hugs Mizu) You will never be alone Mizu. You have mom and dad, and it's not like I won't ever see you again, so when I am given the chance I will continue to train you from time to time. There is no reason to be afraid. Okay?

Mizu: Okay
