Fire . . .
Fire is what I remember, I was surrounded by fire and cuts were all over my body. I was dressed in ragged clothes and bleeding everywhere. I was only four years old, no one could care for me could they? But I remember a boy, a boy with beautiful purple eyes and long red hair giving me his hand. He had a scar on his left cheek, He was smiling even though are lives were in danger. He stopped to save me, I don't remember taking his hand but I must have for here I am today.
My name is Kaoru Kamiya, I do not know what my real last name is. I was found at the age of five wondering around in the woods all by myself. I was taken to an orphanage and given to the Kamiya family. I don't remember much at all of my past. I don't know where I'm from, who my real family is, or even what my real name is.
I've been living with the Kamiya family for eleven years now. I am happy with my life, with my family, and friends. My best friend's name is Misao. She has a huge crush on my older brother Aoshi and she's constantly talking about him . . . it's annoying.
"KAORU! GET OUT OF THE PHONE BOOTH YOUR TIMES UP!" I heard Misao scream.
I felt a small blush creep onto my face and looked at my watch 3:00. I had been in the phone booth about 40 minutes and I hadn't even picked up the phone!
"Hehehehehe sorry Misao-chan." I said walking out of the phone booth.
Misao looked at me funny as a big sweatdrop lay on my head.
"Don't worry about Misao she's just cranky." a voice said.
I looked over to see Soujiro Misao's little brother.
"Sorry Misao you know how I am. It'll take me forever before I finally do something even if it's just a phone call." I said.
"It's ok, you can repay me when you become famous for your singing." Misao said smiling.
"Oh-no" Soujiro said slapping his hand to his forehead. I giggled when he started counting backwards from 5.
"You can be on an interview and tell everyone in the world that I'm your best friend . . ."
Misao can be so silly that's way she's my best friend. After Misao's little moment in fantasy land she used the phone to call her house to tell them that she'd be late coming home. I finally talked my brother into going out with her!
Misao smiled cheerfully and suddenly gave me a big hug.
"Thank you SO much Kaoru-chan!" she screamed, Soujiro rolled his eyes.
"Your welcome Misao, please get off me now I can't breath."
Misao stopped hugging me and still wore her excited smile. "I can't help it" she said, "this is the best thing that ever happened to me!"
"Ok, so we go to the mall and hang out for a while. Then Kaoru-san's brother Aoshi comes to pick Misao up then what?" Soujiro asked.
"Yeah then what Kaoru?" Misao said grinning in a funny way.
"Ew heck no Misao-chan!" I screamed softly, Misao burst with laughter.
"I'm sorry Kaoru-chan I couldn't resist. It's so funny when you get grossed out!"
I felt like bonking Misao on the head with my fist and I would have too, if I hadn't felt like this would be the last time I would see her and everyone else again . . .
"Oneechan" Soujiro said, "Your very lucky I haven't come over there to kill you!"
"Ohhh I shaking in my gym shoes!" Misao said, "What'ca gonna do tickle me to death?"
"You know that's a good idea," I said.
"Oh-no you two wouldn't?"
"We would." Soujiro and I said at the same time before attacking Misao with the tickle strategy we used often on her when we where in third grade.
A few hours later I had walked home by myself [Yes that's an accomplishment for me it's hard being the girl in school who all the guys want to date!] I walked up the porch of my house and took out my house key to unlock the door. Once I got inside I started walking towards my room when suddenly a woman stood in front of me. She had long blond hair and big green eyes, it was my mother.
"Welcome back sweetie!" [Oh Kami-sama I wish she'd stop calling me sweetie.]
"Hi mother."
"Oh look at your pony tail. Come, come we must re-do your hair and then we'll play with the tarot cards again!" My mother said.
"Yes mother." I said.
A couple of minutes later I was sitting at the table watching as my adopted mother shuffled a deck of tarot cards. [Mom likes to act as if she where a kid again to see if she can understand me. NOT WORKING MOM!]
"I've hidden the blank card in a good spot so you shouldn't be able to draw it this time." Mom said.
I took the deck from her hand and pulled the top card
"Well what is it?"
I flashed the white card into her view it was the blank one "Same as always mom, why do you even bother with this stuff when I'm just going to draw the same card?"
"Go to your room."
"Huh? Why?" I asked.
"Don't back talk! Go to your room!"
"Yes ma'am." I said rushing off to my room.
I walked into my room and shut the door. Now of course your probably thinking a person like me would keep a clean room. Well let me break it to you nicely NOPE! I was tripping on cell phones, manga's, DVD's, tapes, etc [^_^ hehehehe I'm the most cleanest person in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
I turned on my TV and watched a bit of whatever was on the Disney channel. About 30 minutes later I heard my house phone start to ring
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Kaoru please pick up the phone that noise hurts my ears!" Mom screamed.
I picked up the phone and put it to my ear "Hello Kamiya residence."
"Yes, is this Kaoru Kamiya daughter of Yuuto Kamiya or is this Arashi Kamiya speaking?" a voice said.
"This is Kaoru and who may I ask are you?"
"I work at the police station and your father Mr. Kamiya has been arrested for robbing a bank . . ."
I pushed the off button on the phone, I didn't need to hear anymore.
"Honey why did you hang up on them?"
"Mom we've, we've got a problem Dad's been arrested!" I screamed
Mother just stood there in a state of shock when just that moment my brother Aoshi walked into the room.
"Is something wrong?" he asked.
"Fathers been arrested!" I screamed again
Aoshi's eyes widened a little "You lie, it would be on TV"
Aoshi went to the couch and turned on the old Television set that we'd had ever since I can remember.
"We've just received word that the bank on Miizu highway has been robbed by it's own manager Yuuto Kamiya. Apparently he and a few other men had been setting this up for a few months now. But not to worry he's safely behind bars now."
Aoshi turned off the TV and looked at Mom and me before rushing off into his room.
"This is awful! How could he?" Mom screamed before running into her room.
I was left alone in the living room before I too went to my room.. The same question floated into my mind that I'm sure was in Aoshi's and Mom's. (why had he done it we didn't need the money did we?) I looked outside my window and saw hundreds, probably thousands of reporters standing outside my house! I walked over to my futon and lay down as a coma of confusion forced me to sleep.
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING, RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING, RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING
I opened my eyes slightly and looked at my clock 12:00 a.m. and my cell phone was ringing! I picked up the phone to hear my friend Misao's voice
"Kaoru! I've been trying to call you for hours! I heard what happened on the news are you ok?"
"Yes I'm fine Misao-chan, just shocked that's all. How was your date with my brother?" I asked knowing that right now Misao was blushing.
"Hehehehe um well I can't tell you that sorry" Misao said.
"Hey is it ok with your parents to be talking on the phone this late?"
"Oh yeah it's fine, what they don't know can't hurt them!" Misao said.
"Are you Princess Kaoru?"
I turned my head immediately and saw two women in white dresses floating in front of me.
"Kaoru? Kaoru are you there?" I heard Misao ask.
"Yes I think it's princess Kaoru. The princess is supposed to be very beautifu.l" The other girl said.
"Who, who are you?" I screamed.
"Now, now calm down your highness."
"Highness?" What were they talking about?
"Yes you see . . ."
Suddenly the roof of my room flew off! And a man with long red hair (No not Kenshin) and a cold glare looked at me.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh it's the mad Prince Seeu!" the two girls screamed.
"Kaoru! Kaoru! What's going on?" I heard Misao's voice again, "Is everything alright?"
I turned off my cell phone and ran out of my room as quick as I could. Tears of fear fell from my eyes.
"What the hell is going on in there?" I heard Aoshi scream
"Big brother there's someone in my room. There's these two princesses and this man with long red hair and a big scythe!" I screamed.
Aoshi rolled his eyes "Stop acting like a five-year-old Kaoru!"
"I'm serious look!" I screamed.
"Kaoru?"
I turned my head again and saw a man with a weapon in his hand as well.
"It's her we best get her out of here before Seeu gets to her." The man said.
"Who are you?" I heard Aoshi scream, "Get out of this house!"
Suddenly I felt this hard metal grasp my body and throw me up into the air. I looked down to see another boy with long red hair. A cloth covered his eyes but he knew what he was doing.
"Five." the man named Seeu said, he was standing next to the blindfolded boy.
"Seeu stop this at once!"
"Four."
I saw Aoshi's eyes widen bigger and bigger by the second.
"Kaoru!" I heard mother scream.
"Three."
"Seeu stop! Leave her be"
I black hole formed into the sky and as Seeu counted backward the more I approached it.
"Two."
"One!"
I entered the black hole and the next thing I knew I was lying on the ground staring up into the eyes of a boy.
"K-kaoru?" he said it was the boy who had been blindfolded . . .
(In Tokyo Japan)
"Now Ms. Makimachi you say you were there when Kaoru Kamiya was kidnapped?"
"No, not there. I was on the phone with her we were just having an ordinary chat when suddenly I heard voices and screaming. The next thing I know the phone was disconnected . . . It's just so hard to believe. I was just talking to her and then she was gone."
