"Makita!" calls her mother as she stirs eggs in the frying pan and wait's a few seconds,

"Makita please don't make me call you again".

Makita Yamagata was a regular teenager with regular troubles, long ago she was anyway.

After an normal upbringing her parents divorced when she was 10 and the next year her mom married again. When this happened she was soon treated as a slave when her new Step siblings come with him. After 3 years of starving her and treating her like garbage she made plans to run away but couldn't for the sake of her mom and Step-dad (the step parent was actually nice in this story). Today is her birthday and I am her.

"Coming mum" I call as I finish rearranging my books on the shelf in my room.

"Oh, let me cook my own omelet mum" I say.

My mom nods and hands me the spatula.

"Makita your fathers gift came this morning, I stuck it in the pantry, why don't you open it later?" she asks with clear distress in her voice.

"sure" I say trying to sound like I don't care that much so she doesn't make a big deal of it.

"Stop that Simi!" yells my step brother Iwai as the two push through the back door.

Simi my step sister was about to whack him on the head when she spots me and laughs.

"So you've got my father and his friends paying for your party and it's so big the whole school is going to be there, now tell me have you even done the laundry for my poor old father?, he's so unlucky to have an ungrateful step daughter like you" she says this with every word dripping poison.

"Well I think Makita's party was fair even if dad and his friends are paying" Iwai says in a soft tone so you had to listen real close to hear.

This remark sends Simi into a punching frenzy in which the end came to Iwai crying and Simi forced to say sorry, which leads into Makita started it and so I don't get breakfast today.

On the door of my room there's a sign that says *Maki's room* stay out! With a picture of cute chibi anime characters on it. I hear a slight knock on the door and open it to find Mr. Canto, my step father, with a box in his hands. "Happy Birthday Maki-kun" he says looking down at the floor with his glasses almost falling from his face. "Thank You Canto -san" I say and smile to bring him some relief. It worked, when I sent him away he looked a bit more cheery.

"Hello everyone and welcome to my 14th birthday/Junior high graduation party!" I shout through the microphone at the literally hundreds of people, "I'm Makita Yamagata and I'd like to thank my step father Mr. Canto Nigima and his friends for my party supplies, I would also like to thank all of you for coming!, HAVE FUN!".

It all happened so quickly that I barely saw what happened.

Suddenly there was a shot heard and I heard Mr. Canto yell my name and many people started screaming. "M-Mr. Canto?" I sputter out along with some blood.

"Oh god!" he screams and I see a shadowy figure come fourth and say, "Canto I told you I would get her no matter what…" and they shoot him in the head and walk away.

All the anger I had, filled me now and I jumped on the murderers back, they knocked me to the ground unconscious.

I wake up almost 14 hours later with a headache that could kill.

"Makita how could you just let them get away, that makes you worse than a murderer!" my mother cries. "Ma'am with all due respect your daughter was seen by witnesses that said she tried to catch the murderer" the doctor say. "Ugh….where the hell am I?" I say about to faint again. "Your at the hospital you can finally go home now" says the doctor.
Duh! Doctor equals hospital. That's when my mom said something I couldn't believe.

"What home?, that woman is no daughter of mine…"
