"Daddy, Daddy, what are gonna do today?" A seven year-old girl asked. She was a girl with short black hair and grey, blue eyes.

A man, that was almost the exact replica of her, gave her a soft smile. "I'm just going to do a little work and then we'll go back home, alright?" The girl's father said, patting her head in the process.

The girl gave him a toothy grin. "Hai!"

They were inside a building where her father worked. As they walked through the corridors, the girl decided to speak up. "Daddy, am I gonna be able to play with Shiro and Ganta?"

"Sorry sweetheart, but Ganta is at home with his daddy and Shiro has to…" He couldn't think on what to tell her.

"Shiro will be taking a test in a couple of minutes." A female voice spoke up behind them.

They both looked to see who it was. "Ah, Mrs. Igarashi. It's nice to see you." Her father said.

"Hello Mrs. Igarashi." The girl bowed politely in greeting.

"It's nice see both of you as well." Igarashi said. "We should probably go ahead and start our…assignment." She looked directly at the girl's father.

"Hai, I'll be there in a minute. Let me just put my daughter in Shiro's playroom."

Igarashi just gave a nod and left. As soon as she was gone the girl was taken to a room that was pretty much empty, you wouldn't really call it a playroom. The only thing that was there was a table and a couple of snacks, which she just put there.

"Now you stay here and behave. Don't come out no matter what, alright." She just nodded in response, after all she can't say no to her father.

He smiled at her and ruffled her hair up, earning him a pout and a cute glare. "I'll be back as soon as possible." With that said he left.

Now that the girl was alone, she didn't know what to do. She thought… and thought… and thought… but nothing came to her. She might as well start eating her snacks.

Time passed and no one had yet to come, she was ready to just run out the door and find someone to bother. As she began to get off the chair, she heard the door creaking open. Looking up, she saw that it was one of her friends.

"Shiro!" She grinned happily at the girl. She waited for her friend to greet her back, but all she received was silence.

"Shiro?" Now she was worried for her friend, Shiro was never this quiet. Looking closely at her friend, she noticed that for some reason she felt different. She felt… evil.

She took a step back when she realized that Shiro was gaining a maniacal grin. "Shiro, you're scaring me."

All Shiro did was raise her arm and then she was consumed by the darkness.

"-ome?"

"-agome?"

"Kagome!" A girl suddenly jumped in surprise, in the process making her seat and herself fall back.

Getting up, she started rubbing her head. "Ow."

"Sorry about that Kagome, it's just that we've been trying to get your attention for a while." One of the three girls, standing next to her desk, said.

"It's alright Yuka, it's my fault for not listening." Dusting herself off, she stood up and sat back down, after picking up her chair.

"So what got you thinking so hard on that you couldn't even hear us?" Another one of her friends, Eri, asked her.

Kagome looked thoughtful for a moment. "I'm not sure. It might have been one of my childhood memories or maybe just my imagination." She furrowed her brows in confusion. All of her friends looked at each other and then at her.

"Maybe it's something you want to remember but shouldn't, Kagome." The last of her friends said in worry.

"Yeah, you're probably right Ayumi. I should stop thinking about it." There was a slight pause. "So we should probably start heading home, school was out… 20 minutes ago." There was another pause.

"Wait, 20 minutes! Why didn't guys snap me out when the bell rang?"

"Well, we tried, but you were too focused in your own little world." Yuka said.

Kagome just sighed. "Sorry guys."

"No harm done, Kagome. Now let's go." Eri said.

Their way home was all about gossip, yet no one spoke about Kagome's sudden memory gain.

Kagome was the first to leave the group because her house was the closest. She said her goodbyes and began her trek to the top of the shrine. There were too many steps for her to count, but she was used to them, besides she was more than athletically fit, she did have a little bit of training from the very best.

As soon as she got to the door, she opened it abruptly and entered. "I'm home." She announced, yet no replay came. The kitchen was empty and her whole house seemed too quiet for her own liking.

"Maybe they went out." She said to herself, dropping her school bag next to the stairs. When she got close to the living room, she started to get an awful smell, one she knows way too well. Walking slowly towards the couch, she saw someone sitting there yet it was too dark to identify the person. Once she was close enough, she realized it was he mother. "Hey momma, why is the house so dark." Yet she didn't receive an answer.

"Momma?" She touched her mother's shoulder, but no response. She got this bad feeling so she desperately started shaking her mother. "Momma? Momma!"

When Kagome realized that her mother wasn't reacting, she immediately let her go. She watched as her mother's body fell to the side.

Now knowing what was going on, she gave a loud gasp and fell to the ground. She was shaking in fear, slowly she started pushing herself back until she bumped onto the wall, where the light switch was. She reached up trying to reach it, but couldn't, this only meant that she'd have to stand up. Trying to stand on her shaking legs, she grabbed on to the wall for support and turned the lights on.

The sight that reached her was not a good one, it was gruesome. Blood stains were all over the walls and floors, how could she not have seen it before. Walking shakingly towards the couch, she saw her mother's neck cut up and her face was contorted into a look of horror. Trying not to lose her lunch, she looked around. Her eyes landed on the body of a boy, her younger brother.

"Souta." She wanted to hold her tears back but couldn't, her brother was also dead.

Taking her eyes away from him, she looked for the last member of her family. She hoped he wasn't home and was out with some friends, but she was wrong.

"Grandpa." Her grandfather was also dead and it looked like he was killed in his sleep.

Darkness consumed her, not being able to take the scene.

She didn't know how long it was, but when she finally woke up she was in a hospital. She tried to sit up but the nurse wouldn't allow her, and was it just her or did the nurse look scared of her. Her mind seemed to be processing the couple of past events, her face went blank.

"Ms. Higurashi, we have a few a questions to ask on your family's murder." A detective suddenly came out of nowhere. She nodded slowly. She tried to answer every question the best way possible, trying not breakdown. The last question the detective asked her, made her confused. "Ms. Higurashi, do you recognize this?" He pulled up a sword, or more specifically, Tessaiga, the sword her best friend gave to her as a memento.

"Yes, it's mine" She answered truthfully, but what did the sword have anything to do here. The detective nodded, putting the sword away.

When her interrogation was finally ended, the detective gave a sigh. "I'm sorry Ms. Higurashi, but all the evidence points towards you, your sword is the murder weapon and your finger prints are all over it, no one else's. We will have to put you under arrest and wait trial."

'What?' She didn't understand, how could they believe she was the killer? How could they think that she would murder her own family? Before she could even protest, she was taken away by the police.

It only took them a day to put her on trial.

"Kagome Higurashi, we have come to conclusion that you are guilty of your family's murder."

'Someone please help me. Anyone.' Kagome kept thinking, and then she thought of a name that she thought she would never say again. 'Inuyasha'.

"You are sentenced to death."


Present day

Tokyo, Deadman Wonderland

'creak'

Two dark figures lay on a bed. One was a male and was leaning against the headboard, reading a book. The other was a female; she was lying on her back, kicking her feet in the air.

"Senji, I'm bored." The female said.

The only answer she received was a grunt.

"Hmph, I hate it when you're like this. You're no fun." She suddenly stopped kicking her feet and sat up, only to gasp in surprise and happiness. "Look at the pretty butterfly. Hey Senji, can I keep it."

"Hm." Suddenly red liquid appeared from his hand and shot out towards the poor butterfly.

He grinned. "Dead center."

The female just pouted. "You big meanie."

Twenty minutes flew by with her being bored again and the male, known as Senji, still reading his little book.

'Crash!'

Suddenly the girl sat up. "Hey Senji, did you here that?" She began to look exited.

"A rat… no, can't be." Senji said grinning.

"Hey, do you think it's the Woodpecker?!" The girl said, getting happier and happier by the second.

If possible, Senji's grin grew larger. "So he's started to peck at this side of the wall…"

The girl suddenly gave an exited yell and jumped off the bed. "Come on Senji! I want to greet the Woodpecker!"


*pant*

*pant*

'Dammit we came all this way, but at this rate…all of us…' The young, brown haired, boy thought. He looked fearfully at the robot that has been following him and his friends for a while.

"I'm sorry, both of you…" He said to the two people that were with him, one being a white, haired girl and the other a light, brown haired boy. "This was my… supposed to be my revenge for all of my friends…"

"I'm sorry for getting you guys involved even though you had nothing to do with it."

Both of his companions looked pissed but they had their own reasons. Suddenly the girl jumped up and kicked the robot, her friends looking at her in surprise.

"Shiro!?"

"Kicking a robot…? That's madness…"

"Ganta's so… Stupid!"The girl yelled towards the browned haired boy.

"Stupid, Stupid! Shiro's not nothing to do with it! Shiro fight too!" The girl, known as Shiro, was now standing on top of the robot yelling her lungs out.

"Why Ganta say 'Everybody killed', Huh!?" By now she was in the verge of tears.

"Shiro did eat snack without saying, but… Shiro's Ganta's friend too!"

The light haired boy looked confuse. "Wait, that's why she was mad…?"

Then it got Ganta thinking. 'Oh… I…I made some…new friends…?'

"I'm sorry Shiro." But after he said that, the robot wrapped it's…fingers around Shiro, catching her by surprise.

"Shiro!" Ganta started running towards Shiro but was stopped by the robot. Once the robot knew it was clear, it began trying to identify her. 'Unknown No-Number,' once that came on its screen, it prepared to shoot her on the head.

"Dammit…! Stop it you piece of trash!"Ganta yelled out, trying to crawl over to it.

'How can I…?' Then it came to him. 'I see…! That power…! That power can…!'

"Come on!" He tried to make something come out of his hand, but nothing. "Come on…! Come on, dammit…!" Nothing.

'Dammit…Why..?' The robot was ready to fire. "SHIRO!"

Suddenly there was a red substance surrounding the robot. In just seconds it was cut into pieces, along with the G sector's wall.

Standing where the wall used to be was a male with brown spikey hair and a female with black hair. The guy seemed to be the one controlling the substance.

"Dead Center." The guy said, grinning. "Welcome Woodpecker."
