Prologue
Dark Moon
Karakura town is like never before.
I don't know what, or when it, happened but I know this: it has something to do with the day my brother died.
"Ichigo wait! Please wait for me!" I knew something was wrong. It was so similar to that time, but I would not let it end like that. I would not stand in the room left alone staring out the window. Not again. That was the promise I made to my self one year ago.
Well, I never got my answer. I did, however, catch up with him, but that day ended in a total catastrophe. I never saw him again after that though, and I think it's good because I don't know what I'll do next time I see him.
I look up in the sky and feel the first raindrops fall on my face. One soon becomes ten, and little by little I am further soaked, letting the rain wash away my memory of the past. I reach my arm out into the rain and let it wash away the blood on my hand.
I look down on the dead homeless guy; no one will miss him. He was just one poor bastard who had seen one too many drug deals with rich and wealthy people. I look up to the sound of sirens and blue lights. Maybe someone heard the noise and called the police, or maybe it was just a routine patrol... yeah that's probably it.
No one cares enough to get involved in my troubles.
I look up to see the police car coming toward me, and I slipped into the dark shadow, disappearing in the sound of the rain and the darkness of the closest alley.
My real name is Karin; my work name is Rin. I am sixteen years old, and I work as an assassin. Oh, don't misunderstand; I'm not a sociopath! And I don't 'do' kids or animal. I'm in it for the money, the game, and the thrill. Well, before it was mostly for the sake of getting enough money, but now that Yuzu is dead, and dad is gone; it's mostly for the thrill and the game.
I still remember the day it all happened...and the reason.
