A flash of panicked tan and silver rushed out of a brand new village house, barely managing to pull up his red hakama and suikan in his mad dash towards the forest named after him. Sheer desperation fueled his flight, moonlight barely lighting the way on his path.

An equally distraught and disheveled eighteen year old woman dashed out while pulling on her brand new sleeping yukata and hastily belting it shut. Her pleading shouts to come back fell on deaf puppy ears, the tension clear in his stance as he ran into the treeline.

Something had broken irreparably between them, snapping like a rubber band under the pressure.

On what was supposed to be her wedding night, she laid down as the candle light dimmed and a tear slipped out. The sharp pain between her thighs only echoed the ache in her heart and the emptiness of the futon next to hers.

Both she and the bed would remain empty for the next six years.
