welcome back to Japan
The storage room was exactly as she had left it the night she had been released from her grandfather. Looking at the medical table across the room from where she currently stood she reached over absentmindedly rubbing one wrist, the scars there were unnoticeable, at least. Her father had done all he could to hide most of the scars she knew she had with his healing. The physical part of her childhood was erased from sight even if the mental were still there.
Closing her eyes a moment she willed herself to go past the table to where her weapons were kept. The detective that had been in charge of things had promised the Yumi would still be in the locker on the other side of the room, as well as the rest of her gear. She knew that she could easily get new gear, they had promised to supply her with whatever she wanted as long as she stayed true to helping them with their new group.
The bow was lying flat on the shelf she had left it, a reed woven quiver hanging on the hook under it. The bracers with her knives on another shelf.
Ashley, promise me you'll never take another life, Sel's voice whispered in the back of her mind as she touched the bow.
"I won't take another life of an innocent. I promised you that Sel, this isn't the same as before." She whispered, her hand going to the ring that she wore around her neck. "I won't turn back into that monster you saved me from." She grabbed the long bow letting go of the ring.
She heard footsteps trying to be silent behind her. The security she knew were keeping tabs on her had probably gotten tired of waiting, or they had called in someone to check on her. Grabbing the quiver she pulled it over her shoulder taking her time to gather up the weapons. "I know you're there. It's rude ta' hide in the shadows." She kept to English for now, she wanted to see how long she could pass as a foreigner.
