It was one of those nights. When the sky was too dark to even see the stars, and the moon was safely hidden away behind the clouds. When innocent people walked around the town, not knowing what kind of fate was awaiting them.

"Yaya-chan, wait for me!" The girl told her best friend as she caught up with her.

"Oh, Kirara, I didn't know you were still outside," Yaya said. Kirara giggled.

"I had dinner over at Takayama-kun's place. But nevermind that, let's walk home together," Kirara said as she started walking.

"Oh, so you mean you had a date?" Yaya asked, walking behind her friend. But then, Yaya felt a hand on her shoulder.

"I wonder... It wasn't really a date, but..."

"Kirara?" Yaya asked. She had already stopped walking, but when she saw her friend in front of her, the fear took over her entire body. She felt completely paralyzed, and hoped she'd never have to turn around.

"Yaya-chan... Be... Behind..." Yaya slowly turned her head around. And the thing that appeared before her eyes... A white man with no face, and a white cloak surrounding his body. No, was it even a man? Yaya didn't know. A hand showed up from under the cloak. It grabbed her neck, and for a moment Yaya couldn't breathe. She heard Kirara scream. Just when Yaya thought she was going to die, something pierced through the man, and he was forced to let her go. Yaya took a few steps backward and reached her friend, who she immediatly grabbed a hold of. She took a closer look at the man. He was now lying on the ground, and a glowing arrow stuck out of his chest. Yaya wondered who had shot it. Then, the arrow disappeared together with the man. All that was left was a small black egg.

"Are we... saved?" Yaya slowly asked her friend.

"Looks like it..." Then, the two girls heard footsteps behind them. They slowly turned around, expecting to see another weird man trying to kill them, but it was just a girl. She had long pink, curly hair, tied together in a ponytail. She had a lilac dress with a white belt, and small white shoes. Her wide sleeves reached until her elbows, and at the skirt of her dress, a white lace was attached. A crossbow was also attached to her left arm.

"Are you... the one who saved us?" Yaya slowly asked. The girl said nothing, passed by them and grabbed the small black egg. She gave it to the small, grey, bunny-like being accompanying her.

"Hey! Listen when people talk to you!" Yaya screamed. The girl turned around, and looked at her. Yaya immediatly backed away. The girl's eyes were cold, and Yaya wondered if this girl was really not another evil creature like the man from just now. The grey creature jumped, or rather hopped, their way and turned around them several times.

"It doesn't look like the demon did anything to them, does it?" it said. Yaya's eyes grew wider. It spoke! It really spoke!

"Hey, you two! You don't look too bad. What do you say we form a con...-"

"Don't even think about it," the girl said. Even though she sounded cold, she had a gentle and beautiful voice. She walked up to Yaya and Kirara. The crossbow on her arms lit up and changed into a small diamond, attached to a bracelet around her wrist. She looked at her friend, pet, or whatever-it-was.

"Do you still have the egg?" The black egg from earlier popped out and she caught it. After holding it to her diamond for a few seconds, she gave it back to the whatever-it-was.

"Hey, you.." Kirara slowly started. She slowly let go of her friend. "Aren't you... Yes, it's you! You're Miura-san, right? From the other class," Kirara said. "Just what was that thing just now? Do you think you could ex...-" She was cut off by the girl, who held her hand for her face, and after it lit up for a moment, Kirara passed out. Yaya caught her, and looked at her.

"Hey! What did you do to Kirara!?"

"I erased her memory. And you're next."

"What?" The girl pushed her hand in Yaya's face and did the same thing she did to Kirara, and Yaya, too, passed out. The girl caught her, and Kirara, who she was still holding. She put them down against the wall of the nearest building. She faced her company, the Incubator.

"Let's go."

"To where?"

"Home, of course." The girl changed her diamond into a ring, and her beautiful lilac dress disappeared. What was left of her clothes was a cream coloured dress and her black loafers. Her friend jumped on her shoulder, and they started walking.

"But don't you think it was weird? That girl seemed to know you pretty well."

"Fujizawa Kirara. The class president of the class next to mine. She's the smartest person of their class, and she has a completely clean record."

"Oh, you're rather well informed. And the other one?"

"Matsuda Yaya. Fujizawa-san's best friend. The captain of our school's women's soccer team. She had to repeat a grade back in elementary school due to switching schools when she moved to another town, so she's one year older than me and Fujizawa-san."

"I see! You're amazing as always."

"Stop talking. You're being annoying."

Orihime POV

The next day, I woke up, just like all other days. I looked and my alarm clock. I had woken up before the alarm again. I sighed and got up. Having nothing else to do, I decided to go on ahead to the bathroom. I took a shower and brushed my teeth, like I did every morning.

"Good morning, Orihime!" My "friend", Shakyuu, or just "Incubator" welcomed me like he did every morning. I didn't answer him. When I was ready brushing my teeth, I went back to my room. The alarm was ringing, so I turned it off and changed into my school uniform. The white blouse, the black jacket with the red ribbon around the neck and the black skirt. I finished it with my white stockings and my black shoes. I left for the living room to make breakfast and a packed lunch.

When I arrived in the living room, everything was quiet. My father was sleeping on the couch. I walked up to him, and lay a blanket over him.

"Your father is sleeping on the couch again."

"Don't wake him up," I whispered, "you know he works at night. He's the night guard in the local museum, and he sleeps during the day."

"Yes, I know," Shakyuu told me. I went to the kitchen and made breakfast. After eating it by myself, I made my lunch. I brushed my hair and put it in my usual ponytail. I grabbed my bag, and left the house. Shakyuu jumped on my shoulder.

"Don't you have to say "I'm gone", or something like that?"

"There's no need for something like that. Father is still sleeping, he won't hear me anyway."

-Line break-

I arrived at the gates of Kagezorami High School. Students were spread all over the place, all talking to each other. I sat down at the bench under the cherry tree. I waited for the bell to ring so I could go to my first class; Homeroom. Shakyuu jumped from my shoulder to my lap and looked at me.

"Hey, Shakyuu."

"What's it?"

"Just why did you make yourself visible to those girls yesterday anyway?"

"Well, I thought they would make some good Magical Girls."

"Is that all you ever think about?"

"Maybe... I guess so... But it can't be helped. I haven't made a contract with a single girl since I've met you."

"I told you, right? Don't even think about contracting with someone."

"You're so cruel, you know that?" he said, on a teasing tone. You may be right... But I'm all right with being cruel. I really don't care. I stood up from the bench and grabbed my bag. I wanted to walk towards the school building when someone bumped into me. I fell to the ground, facing down.

"I'm sorry!" A guy's voice said. I didn't recognize the voice. "Are you okay? Here, I'll help you stand up," he said and I figured he reached his hand towards me to help me stand up. I ignored him, stood up by myself and walked towards the building. I took a fast look behind me at the boy. He was about my height, had bright red hair and eyes in the same colour. I walked on to my class, so I could be a little early.

-Line break-

More and more of my classmates were gathering in my class. I was staring out of the window from my seat. Then, the door opened. The teacher came in, and told everything to sit down at their seats. After we stood up and bowed like we did every morning, she started talking.

"Dear class 1-B. From today on, we'll have a new student in our middle." She looked at the door. "You can come in."

A boy came, about my height and with bright red hair and eyes in the same colour. It was the boy from earlier this morning, who bumped into me.

"Eh, hello. My name is Sasaki Ryo. Pleased to meet everyone." And he bowed for us.

Well, that was chapter one! That might just turn into a love story between Ryo and Orihime, I'm not sure... But I do know that this is probably going to get really emotional in the near future!
