Summary: Yuri is a girl but discovers the demon world in a completely different manner. Instead of growing up in a family full of love and support, Yuri grows up isolated in a orphanage. There she is bullied because of her special connection with the element water.
Chapter one: prologue
Age: 5
"No, brother. Don't leave me." A distraught Yuri cried as her brother left her to go with a new family. She couldn't live without any of her family. First her mother died from an accidental shooting, then her father of alcohol poisoning, and now her brother was leaving her for a new family. Why? Why could she never have happiness. She was only five years old. She wanted to be held and hugged by her Nii-san not abandoned. He always hugged her when Dad got a little crazy from the bottles and now he doesn't care?
"I'm Sorry Yu-chan its for the best, I promise." Shori told his sister as he followed his new parents. He didn't want to leave her but he knew in his heart that she would find a kind and loving family like he did. He tried to dislike them at first but they were so kind and the food was so much better than the slop that was here. He asked if his sister could come but they weren't a rich family and only wanted a boy.
"Brother please" Yuri cried louder before being yanked back by the head Mistress.
"Hush hun, you all have to leave the nest sometime." The Head Mistress said with a sniffle as she brought a hanky to her eyes. "Besides your brother got a happily ever after, you should be happy for him." She sighed heavily and threw Yuri back in her room.
"Now darling get some rest, you get to meet more families' tomorrow. I just know that this one will have a happy home for you. You got to look your best." The Head Mistress said as she slammed the door shut on Yuri and Yuri cried in herself to sleep. Morning came too quickly for Yuri as she looked around and noticed her brothers bed folded neatly and lacking any presence at all. He was really gon. All she had was her brother and he was gone.
"I'll miss you Nii-san" Yuri whispered to the gray flannel sheets that rested neatly on a small twin sized bed. She sighed as the door busted open and the Head Mistress came and dragged her to the small closet that resided in the room.
"Now I won't have you moping around here and doing nothing. Come on let's put on a dress and meet this family."
"Yes Miss Ross" Yuri replied to Miss Ross as she stripped and got dressed in the 'pretty' dress the headmistress had for her. It was not pretty to her it was pink and plain and there were no bows. Momma loved bows and frills.
"Ok lets go saw hi" Miss Ross said as she held Yuri's hand and introduced Yuri to the first of a many line of families that would not adopt her.
Age: 8
"Its so pretty" Yuri said as she lifted her hand and a wobbly ball of water followed. She didn't know people could control water. It was so awesome feeling the power radiate from her fingers and she carried it in her hand.
"Hello water, how was your day" Yuri asked the water as she formed it into a smiley face shape.
"That's great, mine was dreadful. Miss Ross assigned me another roommate today and this one cut my hair while I was sleeping. I got made poured black ink into her blonde hair when she told me she did and then I got into trouble because I was caught. Its not fair that I was punished and she wasn't. well the joke is on her anyway. Miss Ross fixed my hair to still look girly with layers." Yuri told the water and made it tilt its head from side to side.
"I know that it was wrong to put black in her hair but it was also wrong to cut mine. I like long hair." Yuri told the smiley face as she frowned
"I'm still mad and I don't think I'm going to forgive her anytime soon since she wont apologies and demands that I should." Yuri said and the water fell back into the puddle.
"Yuri" a voice called. Yuri stood up and followed the voice it seems playtime was over for today.
"Yes Miss Ross" Yuri asked as she walked up behind the lady.
"Get inside its wet and yucky out here and its about to rain." Miss Ross scolded her, "How did you even get out?"
"The door was opened and it was play time plus I like the rain and waer. It likes me too." Yuri replied as if it was common sense.
"Water can't like you back you silly goose. No go inside and play with the others, it worries me that you don't have any friends."
"Yes ma'am" Yuri replied as she went inside and was greeted by a glaring blonde?
"What is Cherise?" Yuri asked as her roommate walked up to her
"Where is my apology for what you did to my hair you twit?' Cherise asked her rudely
"The same place my apology is for my cut hair, you bitch." Yuri replied back using the terminology she heard from the mechanic that fixed the air conditionor last month.
*gasp*" Yuri" Miss Ross exclaimed and she walked up to yurri, "Where did you learn that word, you do not say that to people."
"Mr. Henry used it, I asked him what it meant and he said a bad person who gets on your nerves and Cherise is a bad person." Yuri replied back.
"I'm not a bad person" Cherise said as fake tears gathered in her blue eyes.
"Yuri, I asked you to make friends and to stop fighting with your roommate. Don't make me punish you young lady." Miss Ross said as she comforted Cherise. Yuri puffed out her cheeks and stormed off to a corner since she couldn't go to her room and it wasn't just her room any more.
Age: still 8
"You're a witch" Cherise yelled at her when she saw her playing with water. Can't everybody play with water? Why was she a witch? It sounded a lot like the bitch word she used not to long ago.
"Why?" Yuri asked her.
"You're levitating water. Only god is allowed to do that I'm telling Miss Ross and the priest." Cherise yelled as she ran and told not only those two but the whole orphanage as well.
Cherise was transferred to another room and everyone kept their distance from Yuri from that day on. Even Miss Ross who was like a second mother to her stayed away after she showed her the water.
Age: 10
"People are so rude" Yuri fumed as she dipped her hand in the stream and water crawled up her arms and healed the bruises that she got from the other orphans inflicted on her. At least Cherise was adopted and far away from her now. If it wasn't for her she wouldn't have so many issues.
"Sigh" Yuri said as she formed a mermaid in the water. She loved fairy tales and books. They were the closest thing she had to friends and she really connected to the little mermaid, she really felt like a fish out of water.
"I wish I could jump into the ocean and become a mermaid. Then maybe I could be accepted by some one. I wonder if mermaids would shun me too though. I would think mermaids would be nice creatures." Yuri said as she made the mermaid swim in the air elegantly and then froze her into formation and set her aside.
"Or Maybe I could be Alice instead" Yuri said as she created a cat with giant smile in the shape of a crescent smile. She smiled and bowed to the floating cat.
"Hello Mr. Cheshire cat, can you tell what rabbit hole I should jump down in to reach wonderland. The real world is not very nice to me." Yurri asked and then she made the Cheshire cat dissipate into the air and giggled.
"Ha" Yuri laughed as she twirled and hugged her frosty mermaid to her chest.
"Yuri" Miss Ross yelled out for her and Yuri sighed. It seems that the orphanage was about to lock up. That's the only time any one care about her.
Age: 15
"ha hah ha" Yuri breathed heavily in a laughing manner as she laid flat on the moist green grass. "Gymnastics are hard, but fun and something you don't need someone to participate with. I'm glad books can teach me this." Yuri said to herself as relaxed and looked at the clouds.
"I wonder" Yuri said as she lifted her hand to the sky and squeezed her hand lightly in hard concentration. The cloud changed shape and Yuri laughed.
"I can manipulate clouds… Can I make clouds?" Yuri said as she grabbed water from the blades of grass and turned them into a small fluffy cloud within reach. Yuri squealed in happiness and hugged the cloud to her chest destroying her cloud and getting her front drenched. She sighed.
"Of course that would happen." Yuri said to herself and extracted the water from her shirt.
"well it was fun any way" Yuri said to herself as did a handspring and practiced her gymnastics and headed to the library. Maybe she could learn some self defense. From so many rock tossing she was an expert at dodging and moving elegantly but to return an attack would be beneficial if she ever got mugged when she left the orphanage.
"God, I want to leave this hell hole." Yuri said aloud as she returned to her room and ignored the glares and mutters of demon child, cursed being, devils offspring, and other insinuations.
Age: 18
"I'm finally out" Yuri shouted as she headed out in search for her first job. One more step and it will be her first step to freedom. When Yuri ran into a puddle she felt a pull she stopped and looked at the puddle.
"What is it? " she asked the water and touched the surface. It dragged her in headfirst and she landed in a world that was completely different from the one she once known.
"Hello Wonderland" She muttered as some screamed at the sight of her.
"Or second Hell.
