minori
mi-nor-i = beautiful harbor
a place that holds so much meaning for two people
a place to run to when they're in trouble
a place that is so precious
a place just for them

What do the stars hold in between the constellations in the deep, ocean sky? Why does the ocean reflect the sky? Why are we all here? These were some of the questions that filled Rima Mashiro's mind at times.
She stared at the rift of the waves as people passed by her. Rima took off her short, black wig and tossed it over the bridge. Shaking her golden curls out, she felt much better on the inside. For once, the world around her was not giving her any problems and she could actually relax. It was always this harbor that she could escape to whenever she was in deep trouble or wanted to escape from reality.
Pretty… The moon was reflecting against the bay and the stars were twinkling as brightly as ever. However, it wasn't this pretty a few hours ago when Rima was stuck in a room with her father's coworker. It was utterly disgusting because she was only there to support her dad and his promotion, not be trapped in a position where she couldn't escape.
She was only nineteen years old and yet this guy had the nerve to walk in and try to seduce her. Gross. Rima had managed to take good use of the karate lessons her mother signed her up for in middle school and kicked the guy where the sun doesn't shine. She was also lucky because she had worn a wig that night, another technique her mother gave her, and nobody recognized her.
It was the smallest things like that in which Rima had given most of her respect to her mother. Kaori, Rima's mother, knew Rima's father, Ryousuke, very well and she knew that his coworkers weren't the best in the business. Kaori wanted to make sure that her daughter was safe and could defend herself, even when she wasn't around. Rima was happy that she was able to spend more time with her mother after the divorce happened. Even if her family wasn't together, Rima was starting to learn more about her parents than ever before.
"Jeez," Rima stared a few more seconds at the water and then turned on her heel.
She took off her heels and held them in her hands as she twirled around while walking. The air around her felt so free and fresh that it put a smile upon her face. But everything wasn't all smiles and cheers for her.
She had one mission to complete; no, not a spy mission. Her own life mission was to find happiness but in order to do that, she had to do one thing.
Kill Tsukiyomi Ikuto.
