Chapter 1: A New Meeting

how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become

now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become

(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)

My name is Rayne Domini. I have grown accustomed to being alone. I've been that way most of my life. I am a monster, full of evil and surrounded by darkness. I prowl the night, searching for the light that was taken from me. I used to be so full of life, now I feel as if I am an empty shell. He was my master, my friend. He was a fox, from whom I learned my abilities, my trade. He taught and protected me from others until one day, sixteen years ago, he vanished. He left, and his companions revealed their true colors. My master betrayed me, he left me to die. Because of his betrayal, my heart has become black with the pain and malice that flows from it.

There are few who've seen only glimpses of my true self, which is rare. There is my "mother," Genkai, who took me in one night sixteen years ago; she has helped me to suppress the pain. There's Yusuke and Kuwabara, my "brothers," whom have looked out for me for years; there is Keiko, who is one of my best friends, almost a sister to me. My life is different from the one I knew, well at times, worse at times. He still haunts my dreams; I scream his name and I curse him for not being there to protect me. He is the reason why I have grown so cold, so full of hate. Yet, I have a feeling that he holds the key to my true self. He is the only one to bring me to life. My master, Yoko Kurama.

"Rayne!"

I looked up to see Yusuke, waving. I jumped down from the tree where I was reading, and I ran up to him.

"Hey, brother. What's up?" He smiled at me, and he glanced behind him. I saw shadows of people approaching, I figured it was Kuwabara and Keiko.

"I want you to meet someone," he said as he grabbed my arm.

"Okay, but this better be quick, because I have to go train with mother." His eyes widened.

"You're always training with Grandma!" he exclaimed, using his nickname for Genkai.

I nodded. "I have to train, it helps me get better. Besides, I need to do something besides feel sorry for myself."

He nodded and gestured toward the others. "Come on."

We ran to the stairs, where the others were coming from. I saw Keiko and Kuwabara walk up, andI saw someone I did not know. He hadlong red hair and the most amazing greeneyes. I saw something in those eyes that looked familiar, though Icould not figure out where. I've seen himbefore, butwhere?

"Hi Rayne!" Keiko and Kuwabara greeted me.

I smiled. "Hey you two! How is everything?"

"Rayne I would likeyou to meet one of our buddies. He is also a Spirit Dectective, like us." I nodded. Yusuke and Kuwabara told me ofKoenmaand theSpirit Dectectives, and I was asked to become one. I declined,becauseitwould not have been a good thing to do with myhead messed up (A/N: She has gone a little crazy).

I smiled. "Hi. Pleased to meet you."

The boy nodded. "Hello, Rayne. My name is Suiichi Minamino, but everyone calls me Kurama."

My eyes widened and my smile faded. "Kurama as in Yoko Kurama."He nodded. I walked up to him and smacked himin front of everyone.

"You are lucky that's all I'm doing now, even though I want to do more for what you've done to me!" I walked off, leaving everyone staring with their mouths open, including Kurama,his right cheek redder than his left...
