Ketsat Higurashi

(b. 2021)

Well, he used to be an average junior high school student until the day 2 of January, 2036. It was a pretty much normal day, until Saria, his little eight-year old sister, came into his bedroom and told him the family cat, Buya, had escaped and gone inside the Forbidden Shrine, which was the shrine that hid the Bone Eater's Well. He then decided to go inside the shrine too, and look for Buya. He found her sitting beside the wooden well, walked upon her, and grabbed her.

Suddenly, the well began to shake, and the trapdoors that covered the entrance of the well were destroyed. Then the hands of a weird creature pulled Ketsat inside, and he could see it once he was inside the well; it was a centipede-demon! It wanted the Shikon Paper. (Ketsat didn't know what it was talking about back then) Ketsat somehow seemed to succeed in getting the demon away from him, but he found another weird fact. He was traveling by a weird dimension, one I like to call, Barrier of Time.

Some moments later, he found himself sitting on the grass, looking at a place that was completely different from his home. He quickly decided to look for the Sacred Tree, for it was next to his house, and if he found the tree, he'd find his house. The tree was inside the Forest of No Return. He did find the tree, but no house was in sight.

He then saw a strange girl wearing a red kimono, wrapped around old vines, a broken, old arrow was stuck in her chest. He then noticed she was pinned to the tree; the Sacred Tree. After that, he also realized she had cute, fluffy dog-ears, and knew she couldn't be human. Then he remembered the story his grand-mother had talked about one day, before he fell into that strange world.

The story talked about a demon girl that had destroyed a village five hundred years ago, killed the village's monk, and stolen the Shikon Paper. He concluded that girl was the demon, for every sign made sense. Suddenly, a group of men found him, the headman of the Hikari Village, monk Kiode, observed him once the men brought him in, and then offered Ketsat a place to sleep. There, Ketsat realized he was in the 1535's, the Feudal Era!

That same night, the same demon that had attacked him before attacked again, and revealed that the Shikon Paper was inside Ketsat's body. He caught it and ran away with it into the Forest of No Return. Then Kiryasha awakened from her sleep all of a sudden, with an evil look in her eyes. She tried to release herself from the arrow spell, but finding out she couldn't, she then fooled Ketsat so he'd remove the spell from her.

After he did, she destroyed the demon with only one single attack, turned to Ketsat and started attacking him too in order to get the Shikon Paper. Kiode then decided to put a spell on Kiryasha, throwing her a lot of tiny beads, telling Ketsat to cast any spell he knew. But he knew no such thing, so while he was watching Kiryasha crouch to get the scroll that had fallen on the wooden bridge, he yelled, "sit girl!" Kiryasha then fell at the floor with strength.

He kept yelling this, suddenly, he shouted, "sit girl!!" with such strength that Kiryasha broke through the bridge and fell into below the river. There the Beads of Subjugation were born. (I almost always use those beads and the "sit girl!" command as comic mischief because they always cause a racket between Ketsat and Kiryasha) Also, Ketsat is the reincarnation of monk Tikyo so, because of this, Kiryasha always ignored him and called him a 'useless fool' at the beginning part of the story, but he actually has incredibly sacred powers; he can purify evil auras and places, he can shoot sacred arrows, see the Shikon Paper shards and tell Kiryasha where they are, knows karate and practices the Sword Mastering Arts with his father.

Even though he is kind of shy, Ketsat sure changes a lot through the story, thanks to the experiences of his journeys' adventures in the Feudal Era. He's not the same he was when he first met the Feudal Era, Kiryasha, and the rest of his ancient friends and other people. He has gained more coinfidence, optimism, security, bravery, and other skills to survive such world and situations. So, yeah, the Feudal Era, its adventures, and its people have changed Ketsat's life and attitude in a very considerable way.
