p align="JUSTIFY"Reiko is now nineteen years old living with Takayama Ex Director of the Doji Industerial Corperation, about ten years ago Reiko lost the only person that cared for her as a mother Masane, but somehow her spirit lingered in Tokyo watching over her now grown daughter, there was a highschool she attended, she had all sorts of weird friends and nice people. She never thought about being popular or anything, Reiko was just a people person. A woman had her eye on her though and she felt uneasy everyday, after school Reiko went home to her father without noticing the woman was following her, and she told Takayama about a woman that had a weird liking to her and it was kind of creepy. He told her that there was nothing to worry about and if something were to happen he would find her no matter what, that night they were sleep and nothing happened to her, that morning she woke up to her father watching the news flash about the NSWF having a new director wanting to cooperate with Doji Industeries and he turned it off saying "Come on they are just wanting to regain the power of the Witchblade, but are looking for it as we speak the quake won't happen anymore," and after he had said that the ground started to shake and Reiko hugged him scared as ever and the Witchblade found her and she was the new bearer and she didn't ask for it either it asked "Are you my new master?" They were creeped out that it could talk and detach from her wrist at will./p
