Chapter 1: Hate
Tonight, this night. Is one that most knew would come, and most would dread. "Why is this night different from the others?" A child would ask, though, all children know what this night is.
The funeral for my parents.
The stern but kind hands of my father ruled this company for years.
My mothers warm, beautiful smile, eluded the many men who came to kill my father, before she kindly disposed of them.
Then, as my father took notice of mother's actions, he proposed to her, an offer she could not refuse.
Before long, a child was born, my brother.
He was a child prodigy at birth, never disobeying an order.
Then, another child was born into the expecting parents.
It was another boy, meaning they had two possibilities to take over the company.
Finally, hoping for another boy, the couple was waiting.
They were disappointed to find it was a girl, but still reassured each other that she would be treated like a princess.
On the day of the birth, it was marked to be a solar eclipse.
The child came, but, instead of the beautiful blue hair of the mother, or mysterious black of the father.
It came,
Red.
My hair, is red.
My eyes, are a bewitching color...
Silver.
I did not inherit anything from my parents,
Nothing.
Just the name...
Kanako Hoshi.
We're all gathered now, and from the sky, we would look like a giant hole surrounding the grave.
Some would say that they died happily, that is, if the person didn't know the circumstances to how, they died..
The were both assassinated by a jealous man, my father's brother.
Jealous, of his money..
Now, there are many people around me and my brothers.
Many of the women are quietly smiling under their handkerchiefs, and many of the men looking smugly at the graves.
My eldest brother stands beside me, with a grim look on his face.
My youngest brother stands on the other side of me, both of them towering over me.
Both of my brothers were, plainly put, devastated, and you could see it in their eyes, but, I could give no feeling through my eyes.
I never remembered a time when we were a family.
My mother was always busy at work, not even noticing my existence, and father...
I always thought that father was the only one that loved me.
Until that night, last night...
