Aki was found hanging off a cliff by the Akisikialia fox tribe at age 8. SHe was taken in and treated as if she was an actual family member. There she was taught and raised by them. She learned all their natural abilities and what they were most talented at. At 10 she mastered these abilities and created new ones(mastered transforming, medicines, planting, hunting, and stealing) When she was 11 a band of Gypsies, theives and outcast passed through the Fox's territory. The cheif meeted them and made a treaty. The treaty was, if the outcasts protected Aki and taught her everything they new, the Fox's would allow safe passage. The outcasts agreed and so Aki went with them. The theives taught her how to steal, barter, threaten, con, kill, trick, and pickpocket. The gypsies taught her how to dance, sing, play instruments, poison, tease, entrace, magic, cheat and not get caught, how to steal a man's money, how to put on make-up, how to dress, and how to make cloths. At 12 she mastered these as well and was left at a town. There she worked for blacksmiths, weaponrys, bakers, dressmakers, dancers, singers, actors, cooks, animal keepers, doctors, bartenders, vets, farmers, hunters, and more outcasts. At 16 she felt as if she knew all that she needed to. She decided to return to her Fox family. SHe was going to visit them one last time before heading back to her original home. Now that she was grown she knew where it was. Smoke was coming from the village. She thought they were celebrating and thought nothing of it. When she arrived it was a different story. They village had been burned, the people slaughtered and the children could not be found. She looked around, some of the women had been turned human and raped unmercilessly. Some of the men were the same but mainly they had been MUTILATED. Aki ran past them and towards the shrine. There she found the missing children. 10 bodies were hanging up and had'Bow and Pray' written on them. The others were bowed down, dead. SHe sniffed the ground and sought what she wanted. Human. SHe raced to the nearest town and saw what she wanted. The town was celebrating the destruction of her village. She jumped on top of the church and looked up.
Aki traveled and bought dresses, clothes, and weapons. SHe bought and sold her houses. She moved from place to place. She was always know as the outcast until she found a place to call home. SHe made many friends and was known as the cute sweet neighbor to Mr.Holbrytiu. As time passed her friends aged and so did she, until her eighteenth birthday. Soon she stopped aging. When her friends had turned 22 or close to there they teased her and asked what her secret was. Some men became superstitious and objected.
"SHE IS NOT HUMAN!!!" the 'ring' leader exclaimed.
Aki was intimdated, but not much. SHe had an idea. SHe would let them 'kill' her and so she would 'die' to prove her point.
"If I am not human!" she exclaimed"Then shoot me with an arrow through my heart!" she stated. Some of her friends screamed while the rest begged her not to. She stood on a box while her friends were held back. No one apporched her to shoot.
"What's the matter??!! Shoot me to prove it!" she yelled
The ring leader got off of the stage and ran towards her with a knive. Some guards tried to stop him and failed. He threw the knive and laughed.
"DIE WITCH!!!!" He proclaimed. The knive landed straight into her heart. AKi knew she had to put those good acting skills to use. SHe fell back and smiled. SHe closed her eyes and 'died' Her friends rushed over to her, crying, screaming, yelling. All of them turned to him.
"DO YOU SEE?!" her best friend Alexiana screamed "YOU HAVE KILLED HER!!ALL TO PROVE STUPID IDEAS!!" The ring leader was captured and killed. The next day Aki's 'services' were held and she was buried. That night she crept out of her grave and cleaned up. SHe moved all her stuff to the forest and made it seem as if soem one had broken in. She burned her house down and fled. For many years she wantched over her friends. Making sure no harm came to them, and protecting them from afar, until those days came. The all died in sychronization. Every 3 days one would pass until Alexiana was left. On her death bed Aki went and saw her. SHe touched her hand and smiled. Alexiana opened her eys.
"Aki! I thought you died many years ago!" she said wheezing.
"No Alex, I lived and protected you." she said with a sad smile
"You! You were the one that protected Kiliena from those men?! And Jokiuno from those foxes?And,and..."
Yes, Yes. All me Im afraid.."she said with a smile.
Alex smiled back and laughed.
"Are you ready?" AKi asked.
"I've been waiting too long for this." she proclaimed she closed her eyes and passed.
Aki moved on from town to town trying to find a place to call home until she found a nice house away from the city and yet near the forest. A small creek passes infront of her house and she has found a new home at the Fox Den. She is often seen hanging out with her friends and has now returned to see her older sister(she never knew for a long time)
