Naraku was putting something inside a duffle bag when he was interrupted. "Whatcha got in the bag ?" asked Serenity. "Nothing that concerns you, but its something that will make me a lot of money" replied Naraku in a low voice.
"Serenity, leave your uncle alone and come on !" called her father. Serenity giggled and ran to him and was embraced by him. "Let's go for our walk in the park" said Serenity's mother. Serenity nodded and left the house with both her parents. To her parents, she was the cutest girl in Japan, and the happiest, because she always smiled.
During their walk, something puzzled serenity. Why was Naraku always out late at night? And why did he have funny looking rocks in his duffle bag whenever she secretly looked inside it ? Why would rocks make money ? Unknown to Serenity, all her questions would be answered soon enough.
"I can't believe you Naraku ! How could you use our money in this way !" shouted Serenity's father. Naraku stayed silent. His open duffle bag full of cocaine rocks was on a table. "I used some of your money to buy the first rock of it. I sold them in smaller parts for more money. It was one time thing, but I kept the process of buying more and selling for more than normal up" stated Naraku.
"You're sick, twisted even. If the authorities found out about this, all of us, maybe even serenity would be in jail right now !" shouted Serenity's mother. "Don't be stupid, they don't arrest kids for having cocaine !" shouted Naraku. Right when Naraku said that, he thought of a way to get rid of the only known witnesses , and to permanently silence the one person who could carry the narcotics around and never know it.
(The next day)
Serenity and her parents were in the backyard that was very big and full of tall flowers, much taller than Serenity herself. "The flowers are big and tall Mama ! Can I go pick some ?" asked serenity. "Go ahead Serenity, get some really pretty ones" said her mother. Serenity smiled and ran into the forest-like field of flowers.
While Serenity was in the flower field, Naraku came up to her parents. "Didn't we say we wanted you out of our house ?" asked Father. Naraku said nothing, but reached into his pocket for something. Mother narrowed her eyes, what was her brother reaching for ? When Naraku took his hand out of his pocket, he had a pocket knife in his grasp.
"What are you doing with that ? What are you planning !" shouted Father. Naraku ignored his shouts and clicked up the blade and rushed at Serenity's father. Shocked and in fear at the same time, Serenity's father wasn't quick enough and was pierced in his heart. The loud scream Serenity's mother made as her husband hit the ground was loud enough to scare the birds out of the trees and the flower field.
Naraku quickly finished her off by jabbing the knife into her forehead, then her heart. Naraku had warm crimson blood on his hands, he loved the feeling of it. He watched the blood gush out from his victims' wounds and he grinned wickedly.
Serenity ran out of the flower field carrying a bunch of flowers in her arms. "Mama ? Daddy ? I heard screaming, whats goin-"
Serenity couldn't say anymore. Naraku was still standing there, the blood covered pocket knife was still in his hand, and he seemed to be licking the blade. She saw her mother and father on the ground near each other. Blood was pooling around them, and blood still gushing out. "M-mama...Daddy..." whispered serenity.
She dropped the flowers she was holding and ran over to them. She threw herself on her mother and father's body and wept. Her white and blue summer dress was stained with their blood. "Mama...Daddy...wake up ! Stop bleeding and wake up ! Please ! I love you, don't leave me !" wailed serenity. Just when Serenity thought nothing could get any worse, it did.
Serenity was stabbed deep in her shoulder. She fell to the ground, blood spraying out of her wound. Naraku removed the knife from her shoulder and dragged her into the house. She was thrown into the damp cellar.
She tried to get up, but was in too much pain to even move. She couldn't get the sight of her mother and father dead out of her mind. She would never forget the way their bodies were getting cold as she wept on them.
Naraku pulled her up by her hair and placed the knife to her side, stabbed her open, and slashed down with much force. Serenity screamed, hollered and wailed loudly. Her blood splattered on the floor and Naraku threw her down in it. He took a rock of narcotics in a plastic bag and stuffed into serenity's side.
Serenity pleaded for him to stop hurting her, but to no avail. She was powerless to the pain. All she could do was scream in pure agony as the rock of cocaine was shoved inside of her.
After that, Naraku was gone. Her mom and dad were gone. Her whole life for the next 3 years was gone. She was taken to an orphanage. A none-too-friendly one at that. She worked everyday, hardly got fed, and wasn't allowed baths. Naraku soon came to the orphanage and told the owner that Serenity was never to be adopted, but he shall return to get her out once he felt the heat from the murder he had committed had died down.
3 years dragged by, Serenity never laughed, giggled, or smiled in that time span. Serenity stayed at that orphanage, whenever she spoke out of turn or didn't do her chores right, she was beaten with a wire hanger all over her back until she bled, and she'd get more for bleeding too much during this. Every night she cried in her bed, which Yamasaki the owner never washed the sheets for.
All the nights she didn't cry is when she was too tired to even manage a whimper. Serenity never had dreams, she had nightmares. Seeing her parents dead right in front of her eyes, blood gushing from their bodies and pooling onto the ground.
Serenity woke up in shock, she was sweating and shaking all over. She looked over and saw Inu-yasha and Kagome sleeping near her hospital bed. She couldn't move her legs, which meant she wasn't dreaming anymore. She flopped her head back onto the pillow and continued to shake. "Mama...Daddy...I miss you so much..." whispered serenity.
