Glass Heart: Tainted Past
Thunder roared, making a battered brown haired lass shiver in fear. It was dark, cold, and scary night in the Lower Town of Mougenjou. The girl tried to control the panic that is eating her. 'Cold…' she snuggles closer to her bended legs for more warmth. 'Ame' she thought, looking at the heavy pouring rain from where she sat. She tried to move but a sharp pain shot through her spine making her groan 'Such weakling' she thought bitterly.
"Okaa-san… Mika-chan…" Miyu muttered sadly. Her eyes went misty again thinking why she ends up here, scared and alone. Being a thirteen-year-old girl, all she ever wanted is a normal life with her family. Smiling recently at the thought, she is never normal… on the night of her thirteenth birthday, her father tried to murder her. If it wasn't for your beloved mother and younger sister, who ran in front of you shielding you from the gunshot your father fired, you could have died. Red Blood covered your face, Eyes wide from shock. Miyu shivered again at the memory of the previous night.
Flashback
Miyu entered their house humming a small tune. "Tadaima!" she called. Silence and darkness greeted her.
"That's weird, where could Okaa-san be?" she murmured as she walks toward their living room. There she found her father slouched in the sofa.
"Otou-san! I'm home…" she smiled and run to her father to give him a kiss, but her father shot him a death glare and before she could react, he slapped her forcefully.
"Otou-san!" Miyu cried terrified placing a hand on her slapped face.
"Don't call me that! I'm not your father! You're not my child!" he roared.
Tears began to form in her eyes. He hit her repeatedly sending her flying backwards and slam to the nearest wall. She can feel the rage and hatred radiating from her father.
"Otou-san… what are you saying? What's happening to you?" she managed to ask as she tried her best to stand up. The fearsome look of her father scared her as he advances towards her.
"I told you bitch! Do not call me your father! You are no daughter of mine! Son of a bitch!" he screamed as he gags her.
"O-t-o-u-s-a-n…." Miyu said pleading as she tried to escape her father's death grip.
"I should have known from the very start… your mother is a slut… she's a fucking slut!"
Anger flared in Miyu's eyes. She pushed her father away from her body with all her strength.
"Take that back! My mother is not a slut! Otou-san, what's happening to you!" she yelled breathing hard. Her father caught off guard and was somewhat shocked but then his hatred came back more fiercely and he walks towards her eyes glinting dangerously.
"The daughter of hell… I will have to kill you before you fully awakened… I have to eliminate you…"
Fear enveloped her being. She trembled at the sight of her father pulling out a gun from his pocket.
"Iie… Onegai… Otou-san… please don't…" she pleaded hoarsely.
"I should have killed you when you were young… I should have known you are a curse!" he said hatred radiating from him, his voice laced with anger and grief.
"What are you talking about?" she manage to ask, fear and confusion combined in her voice.
"We shouldn't have taken you way back then… if not only for my beloved Seiko's fondness of your mother she wouldn't have taken you and your slut of mother!"
"Don't speak of my mother in that way! She's not a slut! I don't understand what you are saying…"
"Your mother and my wife are best of friends… they grew up together in that blasted town of Mougenjou, what was it? Ah! Yes… Babylon! However, Seiko manage to run away from that monstrous place and met me… we live happily, until your mother came here beaten and almost dying caring a child in her arms. Asking my dear beloved Seiko to take you and love you as her own then your fucking mother died! Yes! Seiko is not your real mother but she treated you like her own, love you like you were our own child. I used to believe that too… but then… things started to get out of place. We tried, and tried and tried but we can't have a child of our own, it's either our child dies or Seiko gets ill. I never thought it would be your fault until finally she conceived Mika. We are a happy family… remember… not until last night… when your mother, my beloved Seiko said that she'll have to take Mika's life and offer my daughter's blood to you… for your sake… do you know how angered and frustrated I felt huh? Do YOU know!" he said with all the suspended emotions inside him.
By now tears are flowing down Miyu's eyes… realization hit her… they are not her true parents and she's not from this family. She's nobody.
"Now you know… I have to kill you… for you are the reason why my child have to die." He said.
"But why? Why do I need Mika's blood to be safe? I don't need her blood she's my sister!" Miyu asked.
"Old magic, devil's daughter…" he said with a sinister laugh.
"Seiko believes that if she offers Mika's blood to you then… you'll forever stay with us and that you'll be safe from the people that is after your horrible mother." He pointed the gun to her.
"Say goodbye to your life…" he fired the gun but deflected by a hand who grab her father's hand.
"Seiji! What do you think you are doing!" Seiko's voice is angry.
"Killing the son of a bitch" he said and tried to free himself from Seiko's grip.
"Otou-san! That's enough! Okaa-san!" Mika screamed from the hall.
Their father looked at Mika. "Stay where you are and do not come close to that damn girl! Stay away!" her father ordered.
Shock registered in Mika's angelic face. "Tou-san…"
"Get away from me Seiko… I have to get rid of the bitch…"
"NO! Miyu lives!"
"And what! Our daughter dies! Are you insane! Get away!"
"I'm not…" she's cut of by another blast this time her mother's face register shock. She fell on the floor dead. Seiji's eyes widen.
Miyu and Mika's eyes are wide and empty.
"OKAA-SAN!" "SEIKO!"
Mika ran to her mother and crouched beside her. "Okaa-san? Okaa-san? IIE!" Mika cried. Miyu tried to stand up but was too weak to even try, gathering enough strength to stand she began to limply head towards her dead mother.
Upon seeing her advances, Seiji got hold of the gun again but Mika stopped him.
"Tou-san enough… please…"
"NO! I'll shed her blood not yours…" he said. Mika cries and hold her father's bloody hand. Miyu was able to get close and was about to cling to her dead mother but Seiji flung her across the room and slam against the wall.
"This is your entire fault! You son of a bitch!" he snatch his hand away from Mika and pointed it towards her.
"NOW DIE! DIE!" he fired the gun. Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! And continuously fire!
Miyu closed her eyes and let the bullets get into her, it never came. She opened her eyes, she look up to find a body looming in front of her. Arms spread, shielding her. Her eyes register utter shock and disbelief.
"MIKA-CHAN!" she screamed.
After the unending gunshots, it finally came to its end. Silence. Great silence then an agonizing scream.
"NNNOOO!" then her father dropped the gun and was stunned to death.
Then another gunshot, her father's body fell on the floor dead.
Miyu's face covered with blood, Mika's blood she's immobile, eyes empty, terrified, and alone.
Her younger sister's body slumped in Miyu's body, that's when reality hit her like a block of hard bricks.
"Mika-chan…" she whispered her sister's name.
"Gomen onee-chan…Daijoubou?" she smiled worried and cough blood
"Daijoubou desu yo…" she answered her eyes glassy from tears.
Mika wiped it off her face.
"Yokatta… Don't worry onee-chan… " she said caressing her bloodied face.
"Mika-chan… I'll call an ambulance… hang on…" she make a move to stand up but Mika stopped her.
"Daijoubou nee-chan…" she said and closed her eyes in pain.
"Demo-"
"Shhh… Everything would be fine… just believe… Daijoubou…" she said and reached out for her hand.
"Onee-chan…suki…" and her hand dropped.
Miyu's eyes widen… she screamed. And blazing fire.
End
Tears made its way down her cheeks. 'Everything is not fine Mika-chan… I am all alone now… all alone…' she said. Thunder roared once more matching the remorse she's feeling. She closed her eyes and tried to make herself comfortable.
'Pity… look where am I now… in the dark alleys of this frightening town of Mougenjou…funny, I don't fear the place or do I resent it… on the contrary… I feel more at home…' she thought as sleep drag her and finally submitting to tiredness.

Agonizing pain in her sides wake Miyu from her slumber she groaned in agony.
"Look the little missy is awake…" said a goofy voice. Miyu opened her eyes and tried to distinguish the outline of the people looming above her when another kick landed on her stomach making her cough of blood.
"Was that too hard babe?" another voice said she dislike these people, no, she hated them.
"What do you want?" She squeaked enduring the pain of her body.
"We want to play… you don't mind? Do you?" said the malicious voice from earlier.
Miyu's eyes held fear. "No… please!" she tried to stop the men from touching her but she's too powerless. Tears leaked from her eyes.
A loud hum of thunder stopped the men of their assault.
"The thunder was too close… you don't think he is any way near here?" a nervous voice asked his companion making the others stiff.
'Who are they referring to?'
"Nah… he couldn't be here… we're not destroying anything are we… we're just having fun…" he said and began caressing Miyu's body once more this time more fiercely.
Miyu grunted in pain. Eyes closed tightly. Laughter and the other followed the man's pursuit of physical relief.
Miyu felt dirty… 'Please… anyone… Help me…'
Then the thunder roared a lot louder than before… like it was so near. Next to, it was a blinding light. And muffled screams.
Miyu opened her tired eyes and saw the men who tried to harass her flung to the side of the alley all dead.
"I did warn you… but you didn't hid my warning…" a cold voice said, but for Miyu it gave her a sense of security and warmness.
She cant clearly see the man's face. She tried to keep her eyes open as the man approached her. But her beaten badly gave up and lost consciousness.
See you on the next chapter…
