So! Hey everyone! I decided that I would write this fic for an anime I just recently finished. It's called Akatsuki No Yona. It was a very good show and I HIGHLY recommend it if you like anime!

Anywho! So, I'm currently working on another story too called Raging Love. Some of you may have read it so far, maybe not. But here's my new system. Since I have the two idea's, I'm going to post a new chpt. for each one after the other. Meaning, when I post a new chpt. of Raging Love, I'm going to work on and post a new chpt. of The fire in your eyes. It will go back and forth until the stories are finished! I hope you enjoy them!


The dark has been my home,

For it is where I stay.

I 'twas aleft here alone and now I fall to fear,

For now it is the predator, and I am its prey.


Prelude::

This pain, it was mine and mine alone. It was what convinced me I was still alive. Bleeding horribly once again, and sitting against that stone wall with chains and shackles binding my wrists, along with my feet to that cold, hard floor. I looked from the soldiers towering above me to my father, standing in the door way, his eyes empty and his frown evident.

I wanted to tell him it was alright. I understood his emptiness, though he had much more of a light than I did. This was for the greater good. It was for the sake of the kingdom I read about and loved so much.

I was dangerous, this I knew, and my father was painfully aware of it as well. It could not be changed. And so, I was kept here in this cell, being beaten and tortured for the abilities I had never wished I had. The ones I was forever cursed with...

This vicious cycle started playing out when I was four. I was the youngest of two daughters. I am Runa, my sister is Yona. She and I have the same rare, fiery crimson hair and the same violet eyes; however that was where our similarities ended. She was a happy, cheerful girl-from what I could remember. I was the odd child of us two. Since I was so strange, they brought in an old Oracle to tell them what was wrong with me and if there was a chance they could save me.

As soon as the Oracle touched me, the Oracle flinched back with horror evident on his face and he stated that I was a demon's child and that I should be killed. Later that night, I was taken down to chambers underneath the palace. I was given my first beating. I had cried out with each hit, begging to my father who stood in the doorway, watching. I begged for him to forgive me for whatever I had done to make him so angry. I wanted him to hold me again and tell me I was going to be alright.

He didn't, and never would again.

Instead he left me there, saying that he was sorry, but this was for the good of the kingdom that we both loved so much. He asked me to forgive him and before I fell unconscious, I told him I did. I understood. I was a danger to my home and my sister. Even though I had rarely seen or met her in the short time I had, I hoped she knew of me, the little sister whom I knew in my heart she might forget.

As days bled into years, I became like stone. I never cried when bones were crushed, or something was snapped. I never begged or pleaded. I shut off my emotions and now I was nothing but a shell.

But now I am sixteen and I have secrets. I know things about this kingdom and its tragedies. And I had a feeling everything would change.


I've decided to re-write everything in this fic. So the tops of the fics will be the same up until the newest chapter has been posted. As you may have noticed I've already made and am working on making more modifications to this fic. I've decided to pick it back up again. But you may have also noticed that I stopped working on my fic Raging Love for now. I'm completely stuck on how to keep writing it and have thought about completely deleting it altogether. If you guys have any advice let me know. But I have finished a brand new one. Its a fic for bleach with Toshiro and Karin. Its complete so if you guys want more to read, check it out if you would like. :)
