Hikaru: As the winter break starts to get rolling, what do I do, sitting by the heater, one of my favorite movies playing on the TV, hot passion tea on a coaster nearby, in front of the computer, wrapped in my warmest blanket? Write the darkest, twisted, soul sucking, mind warping story of the year! MWHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

That… and also listen to the Inuyasha soundtrack non- stop… aren't I a loser.

But seriously, this idea of a story hit me like a bus while listening to Evanescence. I truly hope you guys enjoy this one… I'll try to make the chapters longer than my usual ones but it totally depends how the story flows…

This author's notes is a seperate chapter because I thought it would have thrown off the seriousness of the story ahead if it was on top of the beginning of the story…

BIG NOTE THOUGH: All characters are human unless stated otherwise… hey, if it's a story that has to deal with spirits so why not? Oh yea… I own no characters except for potential OCs that might pop up along the way…
