Fushicho is one of the messenger from hell. She use dead butterfly to help deliver the message to people, inform them their unavoidable death. She work for hell to paid for her sin and been doing her job for very long time. This is her story...
Full Summary:
Dead butterfly, just like the name implied, it is a butterfly that came from the undead and undead butterfly is the lady who breed them. Legend say that it is a curse to meet one as all soon will reach the end of life after the encounter, even rarer if you mange to see the lady.
The lady who is their master, common known as undead butterfly, is one of the messengers from hell. She is always spotted to be surrounded by her butterflies and wearing kimono thus, hard to miss her.
The butterflies have the color of black only and if you take a closer look, you may found that there are different pattern on their wing to separate them. Each type has different meaning of death or should I say the cause of death. Undead butterfly and the receiver are the only one will ever know what message the butterfly delivered.
But do you know how all these come about? Origin of the butterfly? Who she really is? Is she human or devil from hell? Story passes down and through time much information left and now in the even advancing modern era not much people believe her existence anymore…
Fires dancing around in the air as they burn so bright, it’s a beautiful sight indeed as the flame continue to consume the girl. The villagers surrounded near the flame happily cheering as they finally get rid of the devil but oh how wrong they are when what they do is just turning an innocent girl into a vengeance woman. Sudden laughter echoing the space as it brings the chill down their spine. Even near the fire, they can’t help but shiver. They wonder have she gone mad as she continues to laugh out loud.
“How ironic that you think the death will stop by burning me when it will only cause the worse to befall! I was a fool for believing you all will soon accept who I am and now I have paid the price.” Sadness flash across her eyes before she harden it as the insane look was back on her face.
“Oh shut up! You witch! You deserve it! Burn her! She is the cause of all these!” Villagers all shout back as they turn their fear into hate or anger.
“How dare you! I done nothing wrong and yet you all treat me like vermin! It was because of your ignorance and selfishness that the disease continues to spread. I was just comforting those restless soul.” For a moment, her features soften as she having some flashback.
“That’s the proof of witchcraft and those butterflies only appear when people are dying. You are using those butterflies as a tool to curse the people! Enough talk just burns her before she destroys us all!” One by one the villager throws their torch into the flame and makes the fire even bigger.
“AAHHH!!! Don’t think I will let this pass, you all had cross the line the moment you start to mess with my friend! If it is a curse you wish then so be it, I will not be mercy! Dead butterfly! Hear my cries and come!” All of a sudden butterflies come from all direction as all fly toward the girl within the flame, not longer before the girl being cover with so many of them that you no longer see her instead a big butterflies and they all consume by the flame, not one is left. The sight is so eerie beautiful and terrifying at the same time.
The villagers should feel happy that they kill the witch but they no longer can cheer as they can’t forget her last word…
What happen in here?” A blond guy look around in his twenty asks his friend as he wanders around the wasteland that uses to be a village.
“Nobody knows the whole story just that within one night the whole place being burn down in nothing but ash, no one survive. Even after so many years, nothing grows on here.” Another black-hair guy looks around the same age reply as they check around.
Well, I guess this better since before the fire, I heard there is disease spreading around and with the fire it all gone.” The blond guy replies his friend.
“Alex! How could you say such thing! These are people we are talking about!” His friend scolds him.
“John there is no need for you to shout right, oh my ear…Beside; I hear they actually burn a girl alive assuming she is a witch. Can you believe it? Just how ignorance can they get, this is what happen when there is no technology and people don’t believe in science.” Alex sighs as he shakes his head.
“Poor girl…anyway just focus on the task at hand first, we need to finish this up before nightfall.” John instructs Alex as they continue their work.
After looking around and take enough photo and information they start to head back but before so they saw a woman standing near the top of the hill that can view the whole place. She look like she come from a tradition family for she is wearing a kimono. We wonder is she here to mourn or visit as we observe her kimono is pale purple with black butterfly pattern and complete with a red obi tie around her waist. She wears no make-up or accessories yet she looks just fine like that. There were some black butterflies at her surroundings.
“Hey I though no one visit here anymore?” Alex questioned as they both curious why this woman is here for.
“Do you think maybe she know the whole story?” Alex wonders as he tries to take a closer look at the woman.
“Maybe, who know, just go ask her.” John exclaim as they decide and as they begin to jog toward the woman.
“Hey!” Just as Alex was about to call attention from the woman, sudden gusts of wind blow past them and for a moment they close their eye to prevent dust or dirt from coming in.
‘What the…’ Was their thought as they open their eyes to see that the woman is gone?
“Where did she go to? She can’t just disappear!” John exclaimed as they stand on the spot not long ago where the woman have just taken. The butterflies still wander around even though there is no flower for them.
“How should I know, maybe she run? Or did my eye just play trick on me and there is actually no one here in the first place?” Alex reply as he wonder.
“That can’t be, if so then even I also be tricked but then again maybe because we are tired. Well, no point thinking further, let’s just go back and have a rest. Tomorrow, we still have work to do.”
John patted Alex’s back as they make way to the car and return back. They put the woman into the back of their mind and didn't even realize the butterflies align at the tree watching as they drive away. What they never expect is after tomorrow, thing will never be the same for them again…
