*Memories*

"Higher daddy! Higher!"

Yelled a little girl no older than three who was on a swing with her father pushing her from behind.

"Be ready munchkin!"

Yelled the father back and on the next push, he put his whole strength into it, sending the girl flying higher into the air.

Time seemed to slow by for the girl as she went higher, she looked around her backyard and saw the dust particles in the air, bugs whizzing past, leaves flying up and down, and the trees rustling because of the animals scampering around them.

Amazed, the girl lost her grip on the swings chains and started falling towards the ground, the father's eyes widened in shock but adrenaline rushed through him when seeing his only child in danger.

Rushing forward, he caught his daughter from midair and turned onto his back, cushioning the girl's fall.

Time seemed to flow normally as the man grunted from the pain of landing on the ground but quickly stood up with the the now fainted girl in his arms.

A figure came rushing through the porch door, nearing the two people. It was a woman who was clearly the girl's mother.

Her eyes shined with relief at the sight of her child safely in her father's arms. The mother and father looked at each other in happiness at the fact that their daughter was safe.


'Mom...Dad'

A little girl was looking at two tombstones that were beside each other, one spelled out the name Marie Bòrdeáu and the other Jacques Bòrdeáu.

All the happy memories the girl had of her parents was replaced with one scene of total devastation that changed her whole life.

She started shaking in realization that her parents will truly never come back, the proof was right in front of her as she had seen her parents buried six feet underground

Overwhelmed with grief at the thought, the girl collapsed onto her knees with a river of tears streaming down her cheeks mixing with the rain that had sensed her sorrow.

The orphanage had no choice but to take her in due to the problem of having no more relatives, the director took her hand and gently helped her stand up thus leading her away.

Taking one last glance at her parents resting place, the girl now prepared herself to the new life at the orphanage.


*pit* *pat* *pit* *pat*

Sounded footsteps on the wet path to the orphanage door, a girl that looked to be six, had purple waist length hair and lifeless crystal blue eyes.

Today was the day when couples who couldn't have children, came to adopt a child that would catch their eye but the girl was unfortunate.

Never had someone been interested in her and it not because of her appearance, as she was beautiful for a child her age. No the problem lay in her behaviour and eyes.

Her eyes were dull and lifeless, creeping the others out, her mannerisms were that of a zombie, most of the time she sat on a windowsill and stared at the sky, other times she would disappear into the woods that surrounded the back of the orphanage, doing something that others didn't know.

Today she had gone to the candy store that was a 10 minute walk from the orphanage, having bought a lollipop and chocolate candy.

She was drenched from the rain thus leaving a trail of water to the windowsill she occupied most of the day.

The other orphanage kids never interacted with her, ignoring her like she was nothing but air, the girl felt lonely and broken, and had given up hope of ever getting someone to love her again.

Staring out of the window, the girl noticed cars stopping in front of the orphanage, with couples coming out of them, what caught her eye was man and little girl with light brown hair and chestnut brown eyes with a squirrel on top of her head.

Sighing she licked her lollipop and popped a chocolate candy into her mouth while getting lost in thought…

"-Ello!"

"Hello!"

Jerking from her thoughts the girl looked towards the voices, seeing the same people that caught her eye smiling at her, she tilted her head in confusion.

"What's your name?", asked the man holding the brown-haired girl's hand.

The purple-haired girl stared at the two people in disbelief, the only person who talked to her was the orphanage director, and even she was uncomfortable interacting with her.

Remembering what they asked her, she replied in a quiet voice "Senra."

The man smiled along with the girl and said:

"Well Senra, what would you think of me being your dad and Ema being your sister?"

The purple-haired girl froze in shock at the suggestion, looking at the brown-haired girl named Ema, she stared at the two people smiling at her kindly and nodded in bewildered agreement.

"That's great!"

Exclaimed the man with Ema nodding in agreement, together they took hold of Senra's hands and led her to the director's office where they officially adopted Senra.

Later on Senra found out the man's name was Hinata Rintarou thus making her Hinata Senra.


A 10-year old Senra was walking home with Ema from her martial arts training, Ema had convinced Senra that she wanted to watch her practice so now they were walking home together along an empty street.

"Hey little girls! Want some candy!?"

In front of the two girls was a suspicious man in a trench coat, Senra immediately sensed danger and stepped in front of Ema.

"N-no we a-already h-have candy"

Stuttered Ema from behind Senra, the man walked closer to the girls with his hand in the inside of his pocket, Senra not trusting to wait any longer kicked the man in the stomach when he was near enough, she saw a chance to escape as the man was down so she grabbed Ema's arm to pull her along.

But the man hadn't given up yet and in retaliation he grabbed Ema's ankl, puling her down. Due to Ema having shorts on, she scraped her knees which made her cry out in pain.

Senra retaliated by hitting the man in the face and pulled Ema from the ground telling her to run and get some help, Ema obeyed her and ran around a corner.

Now alone, the man pulled out a knife and lunged towards Senra, she jumped to the right but her left shoulder was still in range causing the knife's blade to cut from her shoulder down her arm.

Senra collapsed in pain onto the ground, the man started moving in on her but Ema and two other men ran around the corner

The man growled in defeat and ran away, Senra grinned in victory but fainted due to pain and loss of blood.

Ema panicked when she saw Senra faint and a huge cut that went from her shoulder down her arm was spilling out blood, she dropped onto her knees next to Senra and started shaking her calling "Senra" over and over again

The two men she called for help were on the phone talking to the ambulance and police about what happened.

~Time skip~

Senra was lying on the bed with a bandaged left arm, barely conscious she stared at Ema and Rintarou next to her.

Ema was sobbing and Rintarou was comforting her, seeing Ema so heartbroken and sad pained Senra.

She made a promise to herself that day, a promise to 'Protect Ema and keep her hap-'


"Ugh!"

Senra bolted up from the bed, her eyes half-lidded from exhaustion and a sheen of sweat covered her skin.

Thinking over what she saw in her sleep, she started smiling, a glint of madness formed in her eyes.

"Don't make me see such a boring dream again."

She muttered to herself, looking at her phone's time she decided to get up and face another dull day.
