Chapter 1 A Death Threat

Nadeshiko ran through the streets of Tokyo searching for any kind of shelter. She finally spotted a tiny alley she could hide in. She slid into the tight spot and prayed that Valore would not find her.

She still couldn't shake the sight of Valore killing her Parents.

"Mother, Father!" She cried silently.

Suddenly she felt a strong hand pull her out the cave by her hair. She cried out before Valore slammed her against a wall. "Be quiet!" He hissed.

Nadeshiko nodded in submission.

"Good," Valore sneered. "Now, you're going to get in that car over there and your not going to run away, right?"

When Nadeshiko didn't answer, Valore pulled her hair even harder. She cried out then bit her lip as she nodded to show she understood.

"Good, now start walking." Valore muttered in her ear.

Nadeshiko walked calmly to the black sedan and got in. An few minutes later, Valor had gotten in and the car was speeding down the Interstate.

"Now, look little girl," Valore said. "I don't want to hurt you, but if you keep running I'll have to. Understand?"

Nadeshiko give a sad nod.

"Good, we're both on the same page. Now, tell me, where did your father hide The Jew?"

Nadeshiko whipped her head around, her eyes flashing. "I don't know, don't talk about my Father as if he was some kind of blood-hungry animal!"

Valore pulled back his hand and slapped her-hard.

"Nadeshiko! Character ch-Ah" Temari screamed as Valore forced her back in her egg.

"NO!" Nadeshiko cried, "please, please, don't hurt-wait, you can see my Chara?"

Valore's eyes flared and he hit Nadeshiko again. She fell against the door.

"Nadeshiko, run!" Temari yelled.

Nadeshiko removed a Kunai from her boot and flung it at the driver, making contact with his heart.

Nadeshiko ran from the car just as crashed and exploded.

Nadeshiko heard the scream of her Chara before falling into unconsciousness.
