Kikyo "Rogue Alpha-Huntress"
Born January 2019 (frozen as 1y11m until May 2022)
You see her scars and you don't dare to get any closer - she must be hell of a fierce huntress.
You're right and also wrong - she could slay you in the blink of an eye but her heart is blistering warm.
The spirit of her true king - late Seshomaru is eternally by her side.
Died peacefully at 15 years & 2 months old, on the 18th of October 2022, leaving the spot as the eldest and most experienced female in the pride to Pharah (13 years, 9 months old at the time). The pride's young and avid explorer Eden ( 2 years, 11 months old at the time) found Kikyo laying alone by the old waterhole in the northern savannah - a spot which used to be Seshomaru's favorite spot. The whole pride mourned as the backbone of the pride took her last breath. Kikyo had been a part of the pride from the very beginning - being the first pride member to join it when she herself was only an adolescent in 2019. Leaving behind her only daughter in this pride - Kagura ( 12 years, 7 months old at the time). The mother and daughter relationship was strained in, and didn't loosen up until Kagura had already turned 10 years old. Kagura know she shouldn't - but can't stop feeling angry at her mother for not being there for her as a cub. However, she can't stop feeling mad at herself as well for not trying harder to understand her mother - which every other pride member seem to admire and adore. Pharah goes to Kagura and rubs her head.
2019-01-26 [1 year 11 months old] :
☆ Adolescent Kikyo leaves her home in an angsty and rebellious search for her own pride and her own place.
She wanders day and night, and suddenly realizes the danger of this journey. She can't hunt alone, and if her energy keeps falling like this she won't be able to wander much longer.
2022-05-11 [2 years 1m old] :
☆ Kikyo suddenly awakes, in a confused haze and with no trace of memory.
Where is she?
She walks to the nearest pond, if she feels like she's losing her mind - then at least she can do it while not being thirsty. As she's going to take the first sip of the clear water she stops and notices her reflection. She doesn't recognize those amber eyes staring back at her - her very own eyes. They look...older.
For how long was she asleep? Why was she asleep in the first place?
☆ "You good?"
A raspy energetic voice interrupts her haze. She immediately freezes and lets out the most terrifying growl she can. "Oh, no need to be defensive, I was just making sure you're alright". The young lad smiles. He doesn't look like those other males who either are so colorful it literally itches your eye, nor does he have a mutation. Kikyo realizes he must be a submale. He's so...so plain.
"Why? I don't know you" she says with the snarkiest voice, but to her surprise the young male lion lets out a big laugh.
"Of course you don't, smarty!" he continues to laugh. She wants to claw his eyes out but something about him makes her...sort of calm?
"I'm Seshomaru" he says and his mouth takes the form of a big smile. She can see his glancing white teeth. "You got nice teeth for a submale" Kikyo can't hesitate to let out.
"Hah?! Submale? Well I might not be the fanciest around, I know. But actually I'm the leader of my own little pride. I get the appearance part - still ouch, but when it comes to my age I'm recently self-kinged. I left my old pride just last month. The sub-life wasn't really my thing" Seshomaru continues, and genuinely seems to understand where her assumption came from.
"You kinged yourself? Hah! Sure" Kikyo grumbles.
"Yeah?" Seshomaru simply said and stared at her just as usual, waiting for her to reply.
Another king would go crazy at this point. Who was this weird looking so-called king?
"Oh sure, so you're a king?" Kikyo says and for the first time she smirks. "Where's your mutation? and your nice looking markings? Where's your so-called pride?" she continues and Seshomaru smiles as he see her beginning to loose up.
"Why don't you join me and see for yourself?" he smiles and take a step closer to her. She now realizes he's actually kind of large, despite the other aspects of his unworthy appearance.
"As far as I can tell you don't have anywhere to go. What will you do? Join some rich-beetle-hoarding ferus king and be his broodmother until the cubs claw your eyes out? Be the least chosen hunter in a pack of hundreds? Why don't you choose your path yourself - in my pride you'll be able to do just that. Does it look like I care?" he continues and his glance is locking her in place.
She doesn't wanna say yes due to her high (and kind of childish) self respect, but he's also right. She turns her back.
"Alright then, but if you try anything silly I'll rip your heart out and eat it while your cubs watch" she snorts.
Seshomaru smiles.
"Deal!"
☆As she fulfills her role as the most experienced lead huntress in the pride, - She continues to search for answers about her forgotten past.
☆Devastated by Seshomaru's sudden death, Kikyo continues to lead the huntresses under the leader of a new, younger, king - Lawliet. Lawliet often comes to her for advice due to her being older and more experienced in many...no in literally every way. She sees him more like a little brother and Lawliet sees her as the true leader of the pride. But her true matriarchy belongs to Seshomaru - her true king. Who's spirit always keep watching over her.
