"It all began around the day you came," Grandmother explains. "I'll show you what happened that day, to spare my voice."

Grandmother lifts her frail hand and waves it in the air in front of her face. She mutters something and all of a sudden I'm thrown into the past.

Grandmother is beside me in her bed and I'm still sitting with her, but no one can see us. In fact a few people even walk right through us.

"Just watch," Grandmother says, closing her eyes.

I see my mother, much younger than I remember her, walking back to into the house I lived in with them, but more beaten down.

"Go child. Go with them and see what is happening," Grandmother says, her eyes still closed.

"But-," I start, but get interrupted.

"I'll be okay," She says. "Now go."

I nod and get up. I walk through the door, literally, and my mother and father are sitting at a table together talking about something.

I can't quite hear, but I know it's something bad.

I take a seat in a third chair and listen to their conversation.

"Ichiro, we both know I can't have children. Even if we did, we wouldn't have enough money to support them," my mother says, trying to be patient.

"I know but maybe there's a child somewhere that's alone," my father argues.

"That's not the point!" My mother yells, slamming her hands on the table.

I jump a little. I had never heard my mother raise her voice.

"We'll wait a few days and if we don't get news of any homeless children, I'll give up," my father says.

I don't even know why they're arguing about something so pointless…

Then I feel a shock and something's changed. My parents are still sitting at the table, but this time there is a small box.

Out of curiousity, I look into the box and I see a baby.

This child has short black strands of hair sprouting from her head, and is wearing a small blue dress.

My mother picks up the child and holds her in the air, laughing.

"This is what a child's like?" She asks, laughing. "I imagined they'd cry more."

My father says something and laughs but I can't hear him.

They continue their conversation, but I can't hear them anymore. My sight narrows in on this child.

Is that me?

Then I feel another shock and I'm at my grandmother's house. 2-year-old me runs around everyone, laughing about something, and then runs down one of the opposite hallways.

"Mother, I want to take care of her!" My mother begs my grandmother.

"Child, there is something dark lurking inside her," my grandmother says, looking down the hall 2-year-old me previously ran down. "I fear you won't be able to control her."

"Let me try," Mother begs. "I don't want to leave her."

"She will lash out at the village, there is nothing you can do," Grandmother says, looking at me as I ran back down the hall, my father at my heels.

"I want to try," Mother says, quietly.

"Don't blame me if you can't control her," Grandmother says, disappearing down a hall to her bedroom.

Then I thrown back into the catastrophe that was my brother.

I'm still in my Grandmother's house, but everyone seems more worn out and tired. The house shakes and Grandmothers' muttering grows louder, strengthening the shield I assume.

"Please help me!" Mother begs, down on her knees.

"I told you what would happen if you kept her," Grandmother says, stopping her spell for a second. In the second, the house shakes again and bits of the ceiling rain down.

"I don't understand how any of this happened," Mother says, shaking slightly.

"This is because whoever owned that child has come back for it and whoever's come back isn't human," Grandmother says, trying to continue her chanting.

Mother doesn't say anything and leaves quietly. Grandmother doesn't even look at her, not knowing that she wouldn't ever be coming back.

Another shock and I'm at a graveyard. This graveyard has many grave stones, many more than there were before I left.

Grandmother is in a wheelchair and I guess Kurumi is the one standing behind her.

"Hitomi, I'm sorry," Grandmother says, her eyes wet. "If I'd only been more careful. If only I hadn't let you go that day, one year ago. Maybe you'd still be here and Crystal wouldn't have left. I'll take care of her when she comes back, so you don't need to worry. I'll bring her here one day too. I'm sure she has a lot to say to you."

Grandmother keeps talking but I'm not listening anymore, I'm too lost in own thoughts to care anymore.

I return to the present and I'm sitting down next to my grandmother again.

"Grandmother, what…." I try to say, but I can't continue.

"That was what happened that night," Grandmother says. "I told her I'd bring you..…"

Grandmother goes into a coughing fit and, although she's trying to cover it up, I can see blood.

I stand up and get her a napkin. Her pale face turns even paler as she tries to talk.

"I think you know where the graveyard is… you need to go there. Your mother is waiting for you there…" She says, in between her coughs.

"But what about you?" I ask. "Will you be okay?"

"I'll… be okay," She says, unconvincingly. "Now go. I'll be here… When you get back."

I let go of her hand and get up. "I'll be back soon," I say, hoping that she'll be here when I get back.

I exit the room and tell Kurumi to take care of her.

The graveyard is only a little far from my house, but it feels like forever.

As I walk, I hear people mutter about me. I catch a few people say things like "Why is she back here?" "Is she going to destroy our village?" "Don't go near her…"

I pull my jacket tighter and try to ignore them. Before I can get to the graveyard, I feel someone tug on my arm. Not a gentle tug, but more like a jerk.

"Look who it is," a man says, probably to his friends. "If it isn't the reason our village was destroyed."

I try to pull my arm free, but he has a firm grip on me. I can't fight right now, so I decide to keep quiet and hope they'll let me go.

They're just a few thugs, they'll go away soon.

"Crystal…..?" Someone asks. I want to look at whoever said that, but I'm scared it'll be the person I don't want to see the most, so I stare at my shoes.

I knew I shouldn't have come here. Maybe I should go back to Grandmothers house.

"Haru, you know her?" The first guy asks, pulling me a little and trying to make me face him.

I refuse to show him my face and struggle to make him let me go.

It is him. I can't face him now, please make them go away.

"Stop it Hiro," Haru says, grabbing Hiros' wrist. "And I don't know her. She just looks like someone I knew a long time ago."

That stung a little, but it made him let go of me. The second he did, I ran as fast as could to the graveyard.

I got there and somehow managed to get to my mother and father's graves. I collapse in front of their graves.

"Sorry," I mutter, trying to wipe my eyes. "I heard you wanted to see me."

I wait for a reply that I know isn't coming.

"Hey Mother and Father. I miss you guys a lot, but I know you're happier where you are. Grandmother told me everything by the way and I don't blame you for not telling me. If you were still alive…"

But they're not because of you.

I choke back my tears and continue. "I've been good here, I've made friends and even a rival. I think I'm still hated her for being the bearer of the demon, but I don't really care anymore. It's not like I'll be here for very long anyways. Grandmothers not feeling very well right now, so I think I should go back to her. I'll come visit again before I leave though. Sorry I made you guys wait for me, sorry I couldn't come sooner, sorry I'm the reason you died, sorry for everything, but I'll make you guys proud of me.."

I feel tears stream down my face, but I can't stop them.

We're already proud of you…

Tears keep pouring out of my eyes and I sit in silence for a while. I finally get up and decide to head back, but when I head to the gates, I see someone standing there.

Oh shoot…

The one person I didn't want to see.

"Haru…"
