Her name is Riangoko Aoyagi, most people call her Rina though, hair as black as midnight, eyes like liquid crimson, lips as naturally red as roses, a body better than a model, a personality like fire and ice, her real name is: Loveless. Her name is on her right eye; therefore she has to keep her right bangs longer than the others. She has but no one to care for her, she lives with her twin older brother Ritsuka, she is abused by their mother daily, she takes in the pain and she has gotten attuned to it. Others would find it sad but she grew up in her brother's shadows, Seimei and Ritsuka got all the glory, even when Seimei was still alive she was beaten. A few times she thought she would lose her life but Seimei helped her, she'd recover in no time when he was alive. Now Seimei is dead, supposedly, Rina has her doubts she always felt Seimei even if he was all the way across the world, Seimei never left her alone, not ever, Seimei is alive, he's alive, he's… alive.. Her thoughts were fading away as she stumbled and collapsed. Damn, she hadn't gotten any sleep for 3 days, but that didn't stop her, she had to see her brother, but it was the middle of the night, he was asleep so she went to bed. She woke up at noon and her mother was standing next to her with a face like an angel, only, she was no angel, she came to hurt Rina more, she braced for the punches or the clawing but they never came, all she did was smile and stand there. Rina was freaked out, how could her mother be smiling at a time like this?! But the smile disappeared and she screamed at her for sleeping most of the day. It wasn't Rina's fault; she stayed up so late so she could treat her wounds. So many of them this time, most of them were from her mother, the others were from a couple of boys at her school. They were older than her and they wanted her only because she was beautiful and they thought they could pull a fast one on her.

She looked like a 10th grader; even though she was in the 6th grade, the same grade as her brother, with her intelligence she should be in university but her mother thought that was wrong and locked her up for weeks with no food and water. Rina can go up to a month without food and water but after the month is over she has to eat a ton to make up for the weight she lost during her time with no meals. The boys who hurt her were in the middle school that she had planned on going to, but now her dreams were crushed, they said if she ever showed up there they were going to kill her. They hated her, they wished she was their girlfriend, but she turned every one of them down so they sought revenge. She didn't expect them to attack her, luckily they were stupid enough to jump her in an alleyway and not even take her cell phone with them and destroy it like the other girls they jumped, or did they think she didn't have one? It didn't matter either way, she pulled out her phone and hit speed-dial #3, it was Soubi she called, and he helped her now in place of Seimei. Soubi didn't answer so she speed-dialed her best friend at school, but they didn't answer either. She tried Youji and Natsuo, but they didn't answer as well, she hated zeros because they were stuck up, so she had no choice but to call "her". She had to resort to calling Nagisa-sensei, she thought that she wouldn't pick up but she was so relieved to hear her voice, she couldn't breathe but she tried to speak clearly.

"Na…..gis...a-s….en….s…..ei… ple…ase, h….. help m…..e." Then she blacked out for some time, she then awoke suddenly in a hospital bed and sat up very quickly, wondering what was going on.

"Don't be so hyper, y-you're still in-injured badly, R-Rina-chan." Nagisa-sensei said crying next to her.

Rina was shocked, she didn't know where she was but then she remembered where she was, the hospital, Nagisa-sensei found her and treated her wounds then she took her to the hospital to get stabilized. Rina lay back down and smiled, she couldn't express how grateful she was for Nagisa-sensei taking her under her wing and teaching her what it was to be a fighter for someone you loved. Nagisa-sensei taught her the basics of casting spells and defending your sacrifice, Rina now knows that she is her big brothers fighter, because Ritsuka's real name was also: Loveless. She knew she had a bond with Ritsuka that was deeper than sibling bonds, now she understood why, because she will devote her life to Ritsuka and she wouldn't leave him alone to suffer like their brother Seimei did. She will fight and fight on, for Ritsuka's sake only, if she may die, then she prays that she can be reborn as Loveless again, for she loves Ritsuka, and Ritsuka loves her, they were destined to be a pair and Rina will do everything in her power to preserve their bond. Rina sighed and looked out the window, it was raining, she had to get back to her mother, she'll worry again and then she'll beat Rina, that's how it's always been. She didn't care, but she couldn't let Nagisa-sensei know what was going on at home, it's obvious, Nagisa-sensei would explode and almost kill her mother if she found out Rina was being beaten and what not.

"Nagisa-sensei, I can't stay, I must go home, and my mother will worry about me. So, if you'll excuse me, I'll take my leave now." Rina said calmly just to fool Nagisa-sensei.

"Rina, I know what's going on at your house; your being beaten are you not? The fact that you're always being hit and getting wounds that you won't tell me about is cruel; you can trust me can't you? I raised you up when that woman pushed you away, please, stay by my side from now on, I don't want to see you hurt ever again." Nagisa-sensei said stopping Rina from leaving, she looked worried, was it because her name was Loveless? Or was it something else, something deeper and more painful for anyone to talk about?

Rina's eyes were filled with tears and she hugged Nagisa-sensei, crying until she felt better, she loved her, she decided to stay at Nagisa's place but she went back home to tell her mother, father, and Ritsuka that she wasn't living there anymore, she was "running away" and she told them not to try and find her. Ritsuka of course objected but then he sighed and agreed to go with her because of her sad pleading eyes, he couldn't leave her alone, he would die if he got separated from Rina, she almost got away but their mother stopped them. She then started to violently beat Rina and after a few minutes she left and cried in her room alone, she left Rina bleeding on the ground, her wounds would have been worse but Ritsuka was trying to protect her as much as he could. She was grateful, she couldn't let him take her damage though, so she toughed it out and got up, took his hand and went to Nagisa-sensei's place, Soubi saw them and wondered. Rina looked sad and Ritsuka was worried bout her health, he tried to convince her that she should treat her wounds but she denied them hurting. She was like the zeros, she felt no pain for these wounds, but why was her heart aching so badly right now? Could it be because of seeing her mother like this, or was it because Ritsuka can hurt instead of her? Rina stopped and clenched her fists, tears flowing down her face; she couldn't bear it anymore, Ritsuka looked her in the eyes and hugged her tightly, trying not to worry her anymore.
