Prologue
Ria was confused as she sat in her mothers' lap, she had tears in her eyes. Ria never sat in her mothers' lap, she was never loving towards her, "Mother, what are you doing?" She asked innocently.
"We need to reset you," she said softly.
"Reset me?" Ria repeated still none the wiser.
Her mother smoothed her hair down, "Your destiny is an insult to your family name."
"An insult?" She frowned.
She held her daughters' hand in hers, touching her little finger, despite being 100 years old, she was a small 10-year-old by normal means, a sheltered 10-year-old.
"It's not your fault, but there must have been a mistake, you are of noble birth a destiny tied with one who is beneath you is wrong, we cannot have that. If your father finds out, you will be banished…I won't have my daughter banished."
"What are you doing?" Ria began to panic, "Mother," she just moved Ria into her arms, picking up her katana she pierced the two through their stomachs... The pain flooded in her, the blood reached her mouth she was cold, so cold. She was unable to fight, unable to react as her mother ended both of their lives. A shriek was heard and Ria's sister ran in pulling the sword out as guards were alerted by her screams, it was too late, the two of them were gone. Both souls were sent to the Human World.
Being reborn was an unusual feeling. Ria had no idea why she just knew, she knew what the world was about, she knew about souls and she knew about death. She scared her human parents, scared the other students at school and it didn't take long for her to die another death. She expected to return to the Sereitei, amongst the Noble Family. But that didn't happen. Her third life, she appeared in the Rukongai. This was an intriguing adventure for Ria. The Human World was boring to her, the Rukongai was interesting. She had wanted to be around souls like these, her whole life, here people didn't treat her like something special, or something to be feared. She was just another soul.
