"Oh well... Might as well try"
Yukiko said it out loud... just to steady herself..
She was sitting on a bench, not far from the address she had found, with the help of a few people at the library.
Yukiko had been staring at the Signet ring for at least half an hour. just wondering.
'Is this really okay. have I done enough. will I offend whoever lives in that house for asking'
the signet ring had the same bird as her jacket had.. the colours was just a bit different..
at her jacket the colours was red, and white.. but on the signet ring it was clearly the same bird.
a peregrine falcon - or Hayabusa as it was called where she was from. hence her nickname.
but the background colour, although faded to where it was almost not visible anymore was green
and a small symbol in one corner, had the Kanji for Lightning the Hayabusa was definitely a part of the
Suzaku House symbols, among a few others..but the Kanji for Lightning had not been used that often..
and only in a short period of the family history.. at least that was what she had found out.
she had decided to try and learn more about her family.. starting with the one she knew who was
Ojaki and Ojami, Keiji had known how his part of the family had went.. but alls he could find,
was that her par - Ojami had died and leaving no one behind..
Altho here and there a few mentions of a secret wife had been written..
Not being able to find more in that direction.. she had tried the other way... what about the parent of Ojami and Ojaki.
And this was where it had gotten interesting. their parents had apparently been the ones using the modified version of
the Signet Ring.. why that was.. it did not say anywhere.. but the Santaru's were mentioned several times.
and further searching this had mentioned a marriage, the the mother of Ojami and Ojaki had apparently been a Santaru
This had lead her to an explanation of the symbol.. and also why it had disappeared from the signet.
If Ojami's secret wife had to stay safe.. she would have to have something that would identify her as part
of the Suzaku clan. and something specific as to where in the Clan this symbol was it..
Tying the Santarus' to the Suzakus'.
And now all this Keiji had talked about, lightning .. hmm.. and what had happened at the class.
It possibly made sense, something really needed an explanation.
Why was she giving off static lightning. and always had.
This had lead her to visiting this address. Supposedly a Santaru should be living here.
Yukiko collected all her papers. notes about her research. she had really outdone herself this time.
Reading much more than she ever had. but what if it was not enough.
And what if the Santaru was not the answer she was looking for
With the heavy stack of papers, now collected. she tucked her long red hair around her neck and down the jacket,
as she always had.
leaving her new seal from Keiji Visible between the collar snibbits. a remake of the signet ring symbol on a brass
ring made to hold the hair tight and. as Keiji had showed her.. was possible to use as a improvised weapon.
not that it was necessary now. and it was not viable anyway when she had her hair curled up like this.
Had her hair always been this red?.. hmm the pleasures of getting older.. changes everywhere.
She picked up her papers.. holding them close, as not so loose any of them, they had a tendency to slip
when she was wearing this many layers of clothes, and none of it in her size.
Finally she reached the door.. checking her note once more.. 'yep it was the right door'
after a few seconds se mustered the courage and knocked the door.
almost loosing all the papers in the process.
when the door opened, she would be picking up a few of the dropped papers.
Wearing an extremely worn jacket far to big for her and with a red symbol of the Hayabusa,
only barely holding on to the leather at the back worn to no colour at several spots.
baggy pants. leaving people guessing if she had shoes somewhere under the clothes and how her body figure actually was.
she was holding a large pile of papers in one arm, almost sliding out of control, while picking up 3 pieces she had dropped.
