Darkness... Everywhere I go, it haunts me... It's like a curse that will never be broken... Everything I do, it turns into a piece of meaningless memories... I'm locked and I can't escape... You are my only ally... Please, help me...

She woke up with tears in her eyes. Laying on the blanket, she felt the sand stroking her body unpleasantly. A warm light of bonfire was soaking through the tent's shattered fabric. She stood up and headed towards the exit of the textile prison. She didn't managed to get out because of the voice calling from behind her.

- So you've woken up, Bloody Mary.

Startled, she turned around to see the source of the noise. An Orange haired girl was sitting on the materace near her blankets, watching her every movement with her bright green eyes.

- You should wash up before someone mistakes you as a zombie. - she smirked.

- S... sorry... - scared girl looked down.

- I haven't seen you before. That kid brought you here, he said you passed out after some time of walking in the jungle. You should have told him that you're exhaused, you know?

- Sorry...

- And stop saying "sorry" for God's sake! It's starting to annoy me!

She was even more frightened. In the middle of nowhere with a girl she doesn't know, that shouts at you just because you apologize. Tears started gathering in her eyes.

- Hey hey! Sorry! I didn't mean to scare you! Chill out! - the orangehead paniced.

- Sorry...

- Oh boy... - she sighed. - My name is Kishiro, and yours?

- I'm Shirayuki...

- Shirayuki, hmm? Well, I'd shake your hand but I'm kinda stuck... - she glanced at her hurt leg.

The bloodcovered girl looked at the wound worried and made a few steps towards the other one. She put her hands on the injury and closed her eyes.

- What are you doing? - Kishi asked confused.

She didn't answer. Suddenly, a dark liquid started to soak out of the leg.

- What the hell are you doing?! - she asked again, terrified.

Again no response. There was more and more of the black substance, now almost covering her leg. When it covered it whole, the fluid hardened and turned into black crystal. Then it shattered and broke into shiny dust, disappearing in the air. Shirayuki passed out again.

Kishiro was sitting there, not believing her own eyes. As the black shell of crystal disappeared, the wound was completely gone. Her leg was laying there, like nothing ever happened to it. She could even move it again. What the fuck did just happen?

Her saviour, the bloodcovered girl, was laying on the floor unconscious. The greeneyes took her on her hands and carried back to the blanket. Then, she went out of the tent, still shocked.

- Kishiro?! What the fuck?! You can walk?! What's going on?! - she heared a well known voice nearby.

- Hi Charlie... Well don't ask me but that girl the kid has brought here seems to be a good fairy, healing legs...

- What?! What are you talking about?! You have fever?!

- I'm not crazy! Look! - she showed him the leg which was now in perfect condition.

- How is that possible?! - he couldn't believe his eyes.

- How should I know?! Maybe ask that fucking kid who brought her here?!

The guy sighed and went away, probably to do what she told him.


Kami was sitting on the shore again. Watching the waves crashing has become his favorite activity lately.

You're thinking about that girl, am I right?

"It's just weird. I'm wandering where does she come from and why she didn't want us to go to the centre of the island..."

And the fact she was all covered in blood was perfectly normal.

"Of course not! But she was too scared. I didn't want to frighten her more by asking."

Suddenly you're thinking about someone's mood? Kami... You want to tell me something?

- Hey! Kid! - Charlie's voice could be heard from behind him.

Goldeneyed turned around to face the geezer.

- Any problem?

- Yes! You see, that girl you brought out of the jungle...

- What's with her?! - he stood up immediately.

- Well... You better come with me...

Kamisuke nodded and went right after the older one. After a few moments, they were in the tent. The orangehead was sitting beside Shiro.

Wow, who would have thought...

The boy shook his head confused.

- What's going on? I don't understand.

After a few moments he finally did. The greeneyed girl's leg was wounded when he was stealing the backpack. Now, the injury was completely healed.

- She did it... Now boy, better tell us where did you find her and who she is or we won't be nice.

- I found her in the jungle, as I told you! I don't know anything about her! - he said even more desoriented.

- And you know what? I don't believe you... Why she was covered in blood? Who is she?! - they surrounded him from both sides.

- I dunno! I swear! What's your problem?!

- What's our problem?! Our problem is some freaky bloodcovered girl with strange powers is in our camp! And it's your fault! She healed Kishi, but we don't know what she is capable of! She's dangerous! - Charlie took the boy by his collar. - What if she is a murderer? That would explain why she's all in blood!

- STOP IT! - a girly voice shouted from behind them.

As the three of them started looking for the source, they found the topic of their conversation standing there angry. The girl pulled Charlie away from the other boy and faced him, protecting Kami.

- Don't touch him! Kami-kun is a good person! - she screamed.

Well Kami, looks like you have earned a guardian angel.

- Shiro... It's okay... Don't get angry. His reaction was most reasonable. - goldeneyed whispered to her gently.

She looked at him with those big red eyes again and hugged like a little girl would hug her older brother. Surprised, but he returned her embrace.

The rest of them was staring at her like they'd see a ghost.

- Fine... Sorry... - Charlie sighed. - We've found a lagoon nearby so you'll be able to wash up in the morning from all this blood. Is it ok for you?

She wasn't sure, but she nodded. That really let the older one breathe with relief.

- Good, so tommorow morning, you'll be taking her to the lagoon. - the other girl said to the boy.

- What?! Why me?! - he protested.

- Because she seems to like you the most.

He sighed and went out of the tent, leaving the three of them. It was going to be a long and annoying stay.
