Chapter 1

"Mommy will you read me a story?" a little girl handed a book to her mother as she began to open the pages. She loved stories, stories with happy endings. A prince would always save the princess, or the good guy would always win.

"... and they lived happily ever after." She grew up with those words. At every ending of a story she would hear those words.

"Mommy! Can I sleep with u and daddy?" Kaoru asked. Her mother and father agreed as she slipped inbetween her father and mother.

-----------------------------------------------------------

"Target spotted," a man on the roof whispered as he lead himself to the Kamiya family. There he stood holding his sheth in one hand gripping it tightly. He jumped from the dojo roof to a open window he found unlocked. He landed gracefully preparing for any guards there might be.

He found none. He strolled down the hallway checking for any living thing in the name of Kamiya. He had found one door locked, but to his suspitions it was probably them. He started to lock pick the door trying not to disturb them in thier slumber. He wanted this to be a swift kill.

The door finally opened. To his surprise he found the whole family together. He started to come up to Kaoru's mother. With his had on his sheath and one on the sword he sliced her throat with god like speed making sure she didn't make any noise. Next was Kaoru's father. He dispised this man soo much, but he wanted to make his mission as clean as possible.

"Damn, it is not in me to kill a child," With that he left.

"MOMMY, DADDY!" Kaoru's screams could be heard everywhere. She had woken up to a bloody dream seeing that her parents where killed. It was true. Her parent layed there in thier helpless positions. Blood was everywhere.

"Mommy wake up!" No motion occured. Her face did not shead any tears untill she saw her father.

"Daddy...daddy...DADDY! Please don't leave me like mommy!" She shook the body violently hoping that he was alive. Her face went pale as tears streamed down her face. She never wanted to be left alone, no not again. She had lost her mother in an assassination already and now her father was gone. It was all because of him. The man she saw in her dreams. She was sure of it.

----------------

A man stood upon her as red hair covered his face. No expression could be seen, but his aura told it all. Dispise, disgust, and anger. Only when the wind blew had she saw his eyes. Amber was seen. She saw a flicker of gold flash in his eyes, but it faded away quickly.

----------------

In the morning Kaoru had gotten a letter from the government. She had to take her fathers place as she was the only heir to thier family. She would carry on as the new Kamiya.

Couple Years Later

"Hmmmm what shall I do today?" a girl that looked around 18 had been walking back and forth around the house thinking of what to do. She had been controlling the land and people without any harm to the people. This part of the town was the safest of them all.

"DAMN, IS THERE NOTHING TO DO HERE!?" yelled a troubled girl. She had seemed to be having trouble with keeping herself happy.

"Umm...excuse me for interrupting, but we need you to sign some papers," asked a maid. She was hiding behind the door because she knew that Kaoru was ill tempered. She quickly left the room to return to her station.

"Whatever I'll go sign them stupid papers," Kaoru sighed. Ever scince she became ruler of her fathers land she had no fun. Nobody ever asked her to go out or have fun outside. She stayed inside mostly, but she had some will to go outside.

Kaoru walked down the halls to reach a study hall. There were some papers there for her to sign on a desk in front of her. She reached for the papers and read them to herself silently.

"JUNK!" Kaoru yelled.

"I'll sign them though..." Kaoru signed the papers and left them on the desk for her maid to pick up later.

'I'm going go outside...' thought Kaoru.

Kaoru walked outside of her mansion to be greeted by the cool soft breeze. She loved the outdoors, but fear keep her indoors most of the time. It was the color of hair that man had, so she learned to hate that crimson color of blood he had in his hair along with those amber eyes of his. She hated every aspect of him. Kaoru's body shook from disgust.

Kaoru walked along the dirt path to get to her favorite place. The Akabeko. Her friends Tae, Misao, and Tsubame worked at the Akabeko. Kaoru slowly entered and took a seat at an empty spot. The usual people where there. It was like the same people came everyday just to get another taste of the Akabeko's special. Beef Stew.

"Hey Kaoru!" Misao bowed to Kaoru and asked what Kaoru would have. "What do you want today?"

"I'll think I'll have the usual," Kaoru smiled at Misao. Misao then took her leave. Kaoru sighed. She never used to have any friends until Misao introduced herself when she first entered the Akabeko. Kaoru was never lonely, until Misao found a job. So she came to the Akabeko just to meet Misao. Later on she met Tae and Tusbame who became friends with her.

"Hey Jou-chan!" Kaoru turned to where the voice had called from.

"Oh it's only Sano. What are you doing here?" Kaoru motioned for Sano to come sit with her. Her voice had become so cheery until Sano sat down.

Kaoru instantly glared at Sano. "So tell me what your up to."

"Well I was on my way to meet Megumi for my 'Daily Checkup'," Sarcasm filled Sano's voice.

"OOOOOOOO, Megumi has a crush on you!" Kaoru sheepishly said. She was getting that habit from Megumi. Sano just scratched his head and turned his head to hide the now forming blush.

"Oh, well by the way I got you something," Sano grinned. He handed Kaoru a package wrapped in some cloth.

"Interesting choice of wrapping..." Kaoru looked at the present that Sano had gave her. She took it in her hands and started to open it. She finished opening it to find a beautiful silk ribbon.

"Oh my gosh, Sano! It's beautiful." Kaoru held the ribbon tightly.

"I knew you would like it!" Sano flashed a grin. He started to talk to Kaoru about where he got it and how he got it for such a cheap price.

"Ummm, Miss Kaoru your food is ready!" said Tae. She handed Kaoru her food then looked at Sano.

"Here's your Miso soup you ordered Mr.Sano," Tae passed the Miso to Sano then started to leave.

"Are you sure you aren't hungry?" asked Kaoru. She looked at Sano who was looking down at his Miso Soup. Sano just continued to look at his food. Kaoru just started to eat, but glanced often to see if Sano was eating. He did not touch his food.

"AHH DAMN YOU SANO WHAT IS WRONG?!" Kaoru stood up and yelled. People at the Akabeko started to stare at the two. Kaoru twitched when the people started to stare. She felt uneasy the way people stared. She looked around then sat back down. Sano just looked at Kaoru then blinked twice.

"I--" Sano speech was cut off. A man dressed in blood appeared in front of the Akabeko.

"Help there is a manslayer in the town!" With that he fell to the floor where blood began to spill everywhere.

Hey there's the Manslayer we've all been waiting for! hehe. If I get enough reviews then I will post a new chapter! Also this story may be over-rated so yeah... just R&R!
