Japanese Legends Suivre l’histoire

There used to live two Cats in Japan. One of them was White and the other one was Black. Both cats were born from same mother but were separated when their mother died by getting hit by a car. The kittens were so little and young when their mother died. They were crying for calling someone to help them but no one was there. The world was so busy and cruel to help them. Later they got adopted by different people.

The Black cat was named "Akumi" which means 'The Dark'. He was adopted by a man who had a dark soul named "Youkai" which means (Phantom). Youkai was a bit evil and cruel as there was something dark about his past. He also belonged to a wealthy family. He used to treat Akumi like a slave. He would give Akumi his leftover which would not be enough for him to fulfill his appetite. He would make him sleep on naked floor in the winter nights. He used to keep him locked up in a cold and empty room which would be kept dark.

Even if Akumi was afraid of darkness, Youkai never really cared about him. Akumi used to scream all day and night,and used to scratch the door of the dark room so that someone could come and unlock the door but no one came. Youkai only used to unlock the door to give him the food and he would not let him go out from the room. In Youkai's opinion, Akumi should have been thankful that atleast Youkai gave him a roof to live under even though both of them knew that only a single roof wasn't enough for Akumi. Because of this reason, Akumi grew up into an evil cat.

The White cat was named "Akira" which means 'Bright'. He was adopted by a soft-hearted and humble person who had an angelic soul ,named Akihiko (Bright Prince). Akihiko was an amazing person. He was born in a middle class family by his loving parents which made him grew up into a most loving, caring, charismatic and humble person. He loved Akira so much. He used to give him plenty of food. He used to take care of his every need. He made a comfortable house for him which was used to keep Akira warm in winter nights. He even used to travel with him. This is why Akira grew up into the most happy , lucky and beautiful cat in the whole Japan.

Today Black cats are known for the signs of bad luck in Japan. Whereas, white cats are known for signs of good luck. This is because most people don't know the reason for the evilness of a black cat.
