"You know Akki the only thing i regret in my life is that i brought a monster like you into the world!" The girl named Akki looked shocked in the face of the woman in front of her while tears ran down her cheeks "Y...You don't mean that mommy." "YES I DO AND NOW GO TO YOUR ROOM AND DON'T COME OUT UNTIL I OR YOUR FATHER CALL YOU!" Akki ran to her room while her mother went into her room to get dressed for work.

"Mommy? Are you home already? I'm hungry." Akki said as she ran through the dark hallway past her father's room and towards her mother's room. She opened the door and fell to her knees with her eyes fixed on her mother's body hanging from the ceiling in the middle of the room. Her scream cut through the night and she did not hear her father coming. "YOU LITTLE..." Her father fell silent when he saw his wife's corpse.

*Clank* The flower Vase shatteredon the floor. "YOU BITCH! THIS IS YOUR FAULT UNDERSTAND?! ALL YOURS!" Her father grabbed the nearest object and threw it at Akki. As soon as book hit her she lost her consciousness and fell right onto the remains of the vase her father had thrown at her earlier.

Her father was about to throw another vase at her when the doorbell rang. He ran to the door and opened it. The man standing in front of the door immediately got the smell of alcohol in his nose and ignored the man standing in front of him, even when he said to leave, and went inside. "HEY! I TOLD YOU TO FUCK OFF!" Akki's father was about to hit the man when he felt a pain in his chest. When he looked down, all he saw were chains stabbing through his chest and snapping back just as fast as they stabbed.

The man who had conjured up the chains was not fazed by the man's death and searched the flat until he saw Akki lying on the floor in a puddle of blood and broken glass. He knelt down beside her and took a small glass vial from his coat, opened it and let the contents flow into Akki's mouth.

When Akki regained her consciousness and realised that she was lying in a bed she thought at first that she just had a nightmare but when she opened her eyes and looked around she realised that this was not the case because her room did not look so white. "So you woke up little demon." She turned jerkily to the voice and immediately winced again because her head hurt so much. "Stay still you need to take it easy, you had a concussion but luckily for you I got there in time and was able to save you." Akki looked into the black eyes of the man sitting in front of her and saw her own crimson red eyes reflected in his eyes. "What is wrong with my eyes? Why are they crimson red? Who are you?" "You can call me Uncle Saito. And your eyes are crimson because I had to activate your powers completely for you to survive but don't worry I will soon give you a remedy that will temporarily re-seal your powers, you just have to take care to take it every day and your powers will be immediately unsealed and released when you drink human blood. Now go to sleep Akki-Chan."

The next time Akki woke up she was sitting in a car. "Uncle Saito where are we going?" She asked Saito who was sitting next to her and steering the car: "To an orphanage, but don't worry, I'll come and visit you often, okay? Look, it's over there. But first you have to drink the medicine, right? And remember one ampoule every day." He answered and handed the ampoule to the girl, who drank it immediately.

"Thank you Mr. Saito for bringing it here." Said the woman who worked at the orphanage as a caretaker. "U...Uncle Saito you will come and visit me though won't you?" Said Akki through tears. "But of course I will come on your birthday and also sometimes, yes?" "B...But I don't know when my birthday is." "Then we'll put your birthday on the 16th of October yes? That's in fourteen days. I have also arranged for your surname to be changed from Amane to Kijima so that you have the same surname as the children from the orphanage and you are a real family. And now I have to go. See you around Akki Kijima."
