7 Arcobaleno. 7 gurdians. 7 infants. 7 flames. 7 adults. 7 powers.

A billion amount of lives.

1 curse.

On 7 people.

No wait, there were 8,not 7.

Including Lal Mirch.

She was is an Arcobaleno.

Do not forget. No matter what.

Because, there were now 9.

Because 9, the balance was destroyed. 9 was like Lal Mirch.

Corrupted.

Thought. Lal Mirch wasn't experimented.

No. Never. Colonello would never allow it.

There were supposed to be 7. Then, there was 8.

That was okay. Just 1 more couldn't hurt.

But 9?

She defied everything.

Sure, in the future Lal was able to turn into an adult.

But nope. 9 could do it freely. 9 runined their reputation.

You know, being put into Vendicare Prison and all.

She was never to be here.

They made it okay for 8. She was suppose to be the orignal 7.

That was okay.

Really. It was.

9 just appered. Out from prison. She looked innocent.

But, the darkness lurked in her,

She had seen things.

War.

Blood.

Slaughter.

Death.

Love.

Oh, how tragic 9 was.

Thought, they let her in. The circle of flames.

Changed it to 9.

Changed everything from 7 to 8 to 9.

How nice they were. But there was no happy ending.

She went.

Left.

Gone.

Captured.

She told them all. Time was always running out for her.

Yes. Always. It was sadding.

She was taken with those bandaged men.

She herself was covered in bandages.

As she was leaving, she took them off.

It showed her scars.

Battle scars.

Scars of experimentation.

Tsk tsk. Thats what the scienctist (no, not Vearde, never) and his teammate said.

When they saw what she became.

Her past was catching up.

It almost went past her.

Such a shame.

They were not okay with 9.

Why?

Because, they never wanted another person to fall to the curse.

They wished, that there was never a curse.

But they had too.

Who was 'they'?

They.

The ones that never were alive.

The ones that took the badest of the bad.

The Vindice,

Yes. Them. The bandaged face that took her away.

9 was never to belong to the world.

She ruined the balance they worked so hard.

They did not give her a trial.

Sending her straight to the prison.

They were not to show mercy.

They gave in once in awhile. To feel alive.

9. Who was 9?

The 9th Arcobaleno?

Yes. Oh.

Her name was Haruno Sakura.

She did not belong here.

Ever.

But, she came.

People started to come closer to her.

So ever closer.

Maybe, it's because she seemed to be made of smiles.

Even thought, her past was worst than any others.

But, if they looked at every bit of that smile, they would notice, that it was

Yet, even thought it was fake.

She was grateful for them.
