The harsh winter midnight lashed against the rosy cheeks of the three eight year old children as they ran over the snow cloaked fields of Balkov Abbey, which had imprisoned them all their lives. Behind them, men in dark uniforms persued, armed with a gun each. The small girl held the hands of the two boys who ran ahead but pulled her with them. The boys skidded to a halt in front of the large mesh fence. They immediately began scaling it. The red haired boy looked back down to the girl who was still on the ground.

"Come on Hinata! They'll get you!"

Hinata looked up at him then to the other boy who had slate and navy two-toned hair. On his face were blue shark-fin tattoo's, two on each cheek. She jumped onto the fence and climbed.

"They're coming Tala!" called the tattood boy from the top.

Tala looked back and threw a leg over the fence as his friend jumped off and onto the other side of the fence.

"Come on Hinata!" He urged. "Kai! You get out of here!"

"Not with out you two!" he called back.

Hinata had only reached half way up the mesh fence when a set of strong hands wrenched her off. She heard Tala and Kai yelled her name. She was frozen with fear. The consequences for her escape attempt would be severe, if not fatal. Tala was forced to jump over the other side of the fence and run with Kai into the dark forest. Hinata watched them both disappear into the darkness, leaving her behind.

A purple haired man stepped through the mob of guards and watched the boys disappear. He wore a thick, forest green coat and red shades. He clenched his teeth angrily. Guards who had exited the compound chased after the boys.

"Boris sir." said one coming up to him. "We recaptured the girl."

Boris looked over to Hinata who was crying and attempting to escape. He snorted and turned back towards the abbey. His voice was low and evil.

"You know what to do."

---

Eight years passed since that day. Tala and Kai were never caught and Hinata's punishment had scarred her both mentally and physically. She layed in her hard bed, in the dismal concrete cell which was her room. She staired at the ceiling, her long dark-brown, hair lying over her pale face and fanned around her shoulders. Her hollow soft lilac eyes gazed above her, not focussed upon anything in particular. Her detached soul was now only a mere sliver of the beautiful jem that it had been. The light from her eyes had long been drained along with the countless tears she'd cried until it appeared she had no more left to shed. Her older brother Ryan, who had been captured first in the escape to save the others eight years ago, sat on his own bed. The siblings were dressed in jeans and black tops.

Who cared what they looked like in the abbey? It wasn't a dress parade, no one cared. No one had such innocent thoughts any more. Those thoughts, which would be normal for any other teenager, were dead in the abbey. Along with happiness, joy, laughter and freedom. Ryan stood up and flexed his muscles. His black hair was cut short at the back but his fringe was longer and fell over his face. He wasn't as hollow as Hinata. He possessed few emotions. He always protected his little sister and she was the reason he hadn't turned into an empty shell. He held on to his mind, and it was all for her.

The speaker in the top corner of the roof and the harsh voice of Boris crackled out of it.

"Ryan and Hinata Kageruku, to my office. Now!"

Hinata sat up obediently and walked out of her room. Ryan watched her and felt sorry for her. He hated seeing his sister so... lifeless. He followed silently.

Kai Hiwatari leaned against a large tree in Kohaku Park. The bright midday sun splashed across his pale, tattooed face. He opened his eyes, thinking about the dream he'd had the previous night. He closed his eyes again and drifted off into sleep, his mind still lingering on the dream and restarting it from where it'd ended.

Tala was running beside him down dark, grungy hallways. Kai looked back and saw two other children. A girl with dark brown hair and a boy, who looked 2 years older, with matching hair but had wolf-like ice blue eyes. Sirens were blaring around them. Kai knew where they were. It was Balkov Abbey. But he didn't know the other two children. There faces were so familiar but their names were out of reach to him. They ran down the halls but skidded to a halt, blocked by a wall of guards wielding fearsome whips. The boy ran in front of Kai and Tala.

"Get out of here! I'll hold them off!" he yelled.

Before Kai, Tala or the girl could stop him, he went head long into the guards, attacking them fiercly. The girl behind them tried to get to him but Tala and Kai held her back.

"No! Big brother! Come back!" she cried.

"Come on Hinata! We have to get out of here!" Tala shouted, "If we're captured we're dead!"

The boys dragged the girl away from the action and outside into the cold snow.

Kai opened his eyes, the soft breeze ruffling through his two-toned hair and causing his long white scarf to flutter playfully.

"Hinata..." He whispered. "Who are you?"

"Talking to yourself again? That's the first sign of insanity you know."

Kai looked up wearily and saw Tala walking towards him smiling.

"What do you want?"

"What's with the cold reception?" The red-haired Russian asked innocently. "Are you thinking about that girl again?"

"You didn't answer my question." Kai said coldly.

Tala leaned back against the tree and nodded.

"And you avoided mine... I've been thinking about her too... Anyway, I came to tell you that Hilary is back from Kyoto and is looking for you."

Kai nodded and smirked at the thought of his girlfriend. He noticed a boney blonde haired girl coming towards them but said nothing to his friend.

"TALA!"

Tala froze and clenched his teeth, spotting the blonde, horse-faced girl.

"Oh crap!" He cursed, "That she-demon found me!"

"Tala!"

"Too late to hide." Kai stated.

The bleech blonde stood in front of the boys with disapproving look on her boney face and pursed lips.

"What do you want Sarah?" Tala asked drearily.

"I want to know if you're almost finished your part of our history assignment." She said testily. "It's due in two days."

"I'm working on it." Tala replied.

"How much have you done?"

"A title." He said nonchalantly.

'Thought as much.' Kai thought with a smirk.

"A TITLE?! That's what you mean by 'working on it'?!" Sarah asked in outrage. "We both came up with the title in class!"

"I'll get it done." Tala said lazily.

Sarah was not in the least bit amused by Tala's tone. Kai on the other-hand was enjoying it, even though the emotion didn't cross his stolid face.

"Well you'd better!" Sarah threatened. "I'm not covering your ass this time!"

"Yeah, but if I did forget to do it... we both fail." Tala smirked. "That's the difference between you and me, you care, I don't."

Sarah was livid. Kai smirked. Sarah held a threatening finger to Tala's face.

"I want that assignment by tomorrow!" She growled.

With that she turned around and stormed away.

"Yes ma'am!" He called. His voice then turned to a mutter. "You saggy breasted bimbo with a fat ass."

Sarah heard him mutter and whipped around, throwing him a death glare and giving him a one fingered salute. Tala leaned closer to Kai.

"Did she hear-"

"No." Kai replied correctly.

Tala nodded then waved bye mockingly at Sarah, who in turn swore and walked away.

"Nice." Kai muttered. "It's a wonder she hasn't killed you yet."

"I know!" Tala said gleefully. "All I need to do is sit back and enjoy the ride and she'll do everything! Oh, what were we talking about again?"

"The girl." Kai said. "I know her name. Hinata."

Tala snapped his eyes onto Kai. His mind suddenly filled with more glimpses of the girl that both boy had long forgotten. Tala gritted his teeth.

"Why can't we remember her?"

"I don't know." Kai replied.

He stood up straight and stuck his hands into his pockets.

"But we'll figure it out sooner or later."

Tala watched as his friend walked away then stared up at the blue sky. Fluffy white cloud floated across it.

'I hope I find out who this girl is soon,' He thought, 'I wonder what happened to her. Why can't I remember her from when me, Kai, Bryan and Spencer escaped? Ugh, all this thinking is hurting my brain.'

Hinata stood in Boris's large office beside her 18 year old brother. The siblings stood side by side like soldiers in front of the polished, mahogany desk. Boris sat on the other side watching them. His fingers were intwined under his chin and he gazed at them, proud of what he'd done. They were hollow shells, drones, the perfect soldiers. They would kill themselves if he gave the word. Boris's eyes rested on Hinata's thin form. Ryan noticed the glint in his masters eye at Hinata and didn't like it one bit. He gritted his teeth but said nothing, knowing that the punishment for disrespect was severe.

"Ryan, Hinata. I have a mission for the both of you." Boris said softly. "It is similar to the others. It is an assassination."

He rose to his feet and walked around the desk. Ryan and Hinata didn't move as he walked around behind them.

"We have been trying to make these hits for months," Boris continued, "Countless men have been sent to try and eliminate these four but nothing seems to be working. At the moment the targets seem to have lost their memories but it appears it is beginning to return. We can not allow them to regain their memories or we're finished. Lord Voltaire has ordered their immediate death. We hope that your conection with two of them will make them hesitant and reluctant to fight. That will give you the advantage."

"Tell us who you want removed and we shall do it." Ryan said.

"We are yours to command." Hinata said in her soft tones.

"Good. That's right." Boris smiled at her. "Two of the four marks are Spencer Petrov and Bryan Kuznetsov. You both know who these last two targets are. Kai Hiwatari and Tala Valkov."

For the first time in months, the young, child like faces of the two boys manifested in Hinata's mind. Old buried memories returned to her. She felt emotion inside of her.

Tala and Kai had deserted her. They'd left her behind. They left her in the hands of their enemy to be tormented and tortured into this empty shell. She hated them. She loathed them. The thought of them ever wanting to be with her and befriend her made her skin crawl. Whilst she thought all this, not a single emotion hinted across her beautiful face.

"Valkov and Hiwatari are the two main targets though. Kai learnt too much from Lord Voltaire and shared the secrets he obtained with only Tala. So I trust that you will both make sure that Hiwatari and Valkov are properly exterminated." Boris said. "Though Bryan and Spencer are almost as dangerous to our plans so they will have to be taken out quickly also. Remember, make sure you leave no evidence that you were ever there. Make sure there is nothing that leads police to us. Make certain the bodies are concealed so no one will ever find them. And if there are any witnesses, kill them too. Now go suit up!"

Ryan and Hinata bowed in perfect syncronization and spoke in unison.

"Yes sir."

They turned and walked pass Boris out of the fancy office and closed the large polished wood doors behind them. Boris watched them.

"I wonder if this will all go according to plan. I hope Voltaire knows what he's doing. But then again, it's a rare occurance when his plans go awry."
