*Entering from 'A Doomed Trio'*
It had been roughly 20 minutes since Kairu left Malina and Drake on the hill in Hyrule Field. The sun was trying to poke out through the darker clouds. The first thing that Kairu noticed was the destroyed walls. "They stood no chance. These poor, poor people," he said noticing the ddead guards in the rubble. What made the feeling of sorrow worse was that they died scared, eyes wide open from the frigt. Kairu began to sob silently, saying a soft prayer for the soldiers.
He then chuckled to himself at how the sight of death made him religious. It gave Kairu enough strength to press forward, deeper into town. He looked down one of the main roads, the houses were destroyed or still smoldering. Families huddled into the streets in fear and now poverty. Kairu kneeled down next to a little girl who was hunched over a dead body of a grown man. His beard singed, fear in his eyes as well, a fist still made from where he, no doubt, tried to fight back.
It wasn't until Kairu turned the corner to see a body of a small young boy. At first, Kairu's heart sank deeper than ever. He noticed a woman kneeling next to the child. His heart fearng what the boy looked like. Kairu swallowed largely and approached the mother and child. He recognized the boy and could figure out who the woman was. He sighed a soft sigh of relief that it wasn't Leo, but it was one of Leo's friends from school.
The woman turned and recoginized Kairu. "Where were you?! This whole town was under attack and you weren't here! Your family needed you and you were off on some ****ed spree with other women no doubt! How dare you show here! What kind of soldier are you?!" The woman grabbed Kairu by the collar and was shaking him violently out of grief. Kairu forced his arms around the distrought womanand she let go, letting Kairu embrace her. The woman simply cried into Kairu's chest.
"He's dead Kairu, my litle boy is dead..." It was all the woman could get out before completely letting herself go again. Kairu continued to embrace her, comfort her, hoping that somehow, he would make her feel better. After her husbands death a few years ago, she held onto her son for her motivation to live. Kairu knew she now had nothing, no one. She slipped Kairu's dagger out from it's resting spot, without so much as a single notion that she did.
"Abigail, I'm going to go and find Leo and Rebecca. I'll come back for you," Kairu told the woman. Before he turned his head and body the other way, he was too late. The woman was already inches away from impaling her chest. "Noooo!!!" By the time Kairu could get close enough to stop her, he was too late. She was already limp from the instant kill. Kairu held the woman's dead body in his arms. Tears began to wet his face.
It was then, that Kairu felt the impact this attack had caused to him. Little did he know, however, his pain and feelings will not stop there. Something worse was waiting for him, he was merely blocks away.
