Me: Hello again. Now, it's time to start the story. I hope you are all ready for it. I hope you enjoy it too. I understand that at the beginning it sounds kinda… amateurish and stupid, but if you keep on reading, it gets better. Promise.

Kurama: I'm sure it does. I'm here to do the disclaimer.

Me: That's awfully nice of you. Where's Hiei?

Kurama: *coughs* He's hiding at the moment…

Me: Por Que?

Kurama: He doesn't want to do the disclaimer…

Me: …Huh. Okay…? Well, thank you for taking his place.

Kurama: *nods* She doesn't own anything but her two characters Rayne and Eve, and any other characters that you aren't familiar with. Have fun and please review.

Chapter 1: 16 and Fate

Your 16th birthday is supposed to be fun, right? Well, in my case it was anything but. I woke up the morning of my birthday to my mother screaming at me to get up. She was telling me I was going to be late.

That's right. The morning of my birthday I was almost late to school. No one said "Happy Birthday, Rayne", either. Well, except for my best friend, Eve, but she doesn't really count because she's always said it. In class, I had four tests out of the six classes that I take at my high school. Might I add, they were all in a row.

I even got in a fight with one of the female wrestlers. Normally, my violence is for punching my friends, but that day was just not my day. If it hadn't been for Eve, the wrestler would have probably ended up with two black eyes, instead of the one I gave her. The sad thing was that the wrestler only gave me a bruise on my arm. A bruise! I just find that plain sad. I beat up the wrestler. Sure, she was the youngest and the weakest of the team, but I was smaller than her. Well, maybe I wasn't being fair. I've been taking self defense and tae kwon do since I was about five or six.

Eve and I actually met in fencing classes that our mothers had put us through. We were partnered up and have been friends ever since. We do about everything together.

Anyway, back to my worst birthday ever. Apparently, the people in heaven or wherever decided that I haven't suffered enough. After the final bell, my teacher kept me late to talk about another test that I'd taken earlier in the week. When I finally got out of the room, I only had about two minutes to get to my locker and my bus. Eve was standing at my locker when I got there, out of breath and annoyed.

"I have to redo Kripkeys test on the biosphere." I informed her as I opened my locker. Er, I mean, tried to open my locker. I tried the combo again and got the same results. "What the hell?"

"Maybe it doesn't like you today." Eve said, smiling. I stuck my tongue out at her and she grinned. I tried the combo once more and it finally opened. Grinning, I pulled my stuff out of my locker and into my backpack. Making sure I locked the lock, I turned and ran for the bus circle. Eve followed not to far behind.

When we got there, the lot was almost completely empty, save for a couple of kids who also missed the bus. I immediately knew someone up there was laughing at my misery. Dropping to my knees, I did the only thing I could think of doing at a time like this. I screamed on the top of my lungs.

"POR QUE?" I screamed, raising my hands to the sky and dramatically dropped them to the ground. Eve sighed, shaking her head slightly.

"Someone up there really does not like you." Eve noted, chuckling alittle. Ignoring the stares that we got, I hung my head and got up. Eve patted me on the shoulder with a smile.

"Obviously… God, this is the worst day ever!" I muttered, pretending to sniffle. "What do we do now? We missed the bus." Eve shrugged, lifting her backpack straps in the air. She closed her eyes to think for a minute and I sighed. Her eyes shot open and her face lit up.

"We could walk home." She suggested with a grin. "We've never done that before!" I contemplated it. It didn't sound half bad. Sure, our legs would hurt but it's probably good for our health. Finally I nodded, slowly.

"Sure lets do it." I said, smiling at her. Eve made a face and I tilted my head. "What's that face for?"

"I don't want to have sex with you! You're like my sister!" She exclaimed, still making that damned face. I blanched before smacking her in the head.

"Start walking, Missy!" I commanded with a point of my finger. She laughed as she did what she was told.

We were almost home when our legs started hurting. It was also when our legs seemed to get shorter. We couldn't explain it, it seemed like the ground had turned into quicksand. Soon, we were up to our waists in cement.

"We're going to DIE!" Eve screamed. I couldn't believe it. We were sinking and there was no one around and it was my birthday. Someone really hates me up there.

"I repeat! Worst birthday ever!" With those words, our world went black.

Me: I hope you all liked it. I had fun writing it. See you in the next chapter and don't forget to review.
