Childhood
Reika was panting heavily, her small torso bent forward as she caught her breath. Her small face as well as arms and legs were covered in dirt and bruises. She was in a ragged dress; her short blue hair was messy and covered her eyes. She looked around her, realising that she was in a park and beside a big tree. Looking around her cautiously, “He’s not here yet… He’s not here.” She quietly told herself. She sat down on the grass, leaning on the tree’s rough bark. Reika hugged her bruised knees to her chest, the constant feeling of fear and insecurity in her was horrible. She wasn’t allowed to cry or even whimper around Kirai. Tears welled up in her eyes, her lips trembling. She couldn’t take this anymore. Dollops of tears dripped down her face, stinging the little cuts along the way made her cry even more.

Holding his child like palms around it, to keep it safe Rin ran away from 4 other boys holding a stick in their hands. Raising them to the sky, they ran after him. "Give it back!" They yelled at him, Rin held his hands a little tighter around the fuzzy hurt mouse inside his hands. "Never!" Rin ran has fast has his legs could take him, the other boy were a little older so, when Rin had to take a breath by the entrance of the park they stood right behind of him. Two of the boys hit Rin's head hard enough to make small water drops from in the corner of his eyes. Rin made another attempt to get the hurt creature away from the older kids, he ran into the park. Letting one tear go, he saw a tree "I can hide you in there." he said to his locked palms.

The four 8 year olds had found a mouse, and they wanted to play Titanic with it, making the mouse drown in the fountain not so far from the park. Rin how had been running away from home again after an accident at the kinder garden, saw the boys and wanted to join to play. When he found out what they were doing, he wanted to save the mouse. The boys became angry and took a hold of a branch and followed him...

Reika's ear twitched as she heard several footsteps not too far away from her. Wiping her tears away from her eyes she scrambled to her feet, scared that the demon had already found her. She quickly found a low enough branch for her to climb up. She hid herself behind several bunch of leaves, just enough openings for her eyes to see. She didn't realise she was holding her breath as she finally let it out as a sigh of relief when she saw a boy looking like he's holding something in his hands. She also noticed a group of bigger boys chasing after him. 'Was this some sort of games humans play?' She thought to herself. Repositioning herself on the branch so she wouldn't fall so easily, keeping quiet till she knew what situation she was in.

Rin didn't notice the little girl at all he was to consecrated to save the little mouse. While Rin ran, one of the older boys caught up with him. He was so close to the tree but, he had to keep the mouse safe until he could let it climb without the older boys taking it down. The older boy hit Rin on the side with a swing. He landed 20 inches from the base root of the tree. Looking up the other boys formed a circle around him, nearly all at the same time they beat him over and over. Rin tried his best to keep the mouse safe but, he couldn't his strength faded a little, after each hit made contact. Rin let the mouse go, and hoped that is would make it under the tree, before....

Reika gasped, her hand covered her mouth quickly. They weren't playing a game at all. Clenching her small fists, and plucking whatever little courage that she had, she jumped down. Landing on one of the boys as she did so. The boy fell flat on his back when she landed on him, causing her to sit on top of his chest. She started beating the boy's face, punching his jaw and eyes with her tiny fists. "You bullies! Stop hurting him!" She yelled angrily at him, the fear she felt not long ago diminished as she kept hitting the boy below her.

[SoulNote]

Rin saw a small girl fly down, and the other boys saw it too. His eyes where quite widen watching the little girl punch the kid. Surprised and quite scared of the raging girl the boys took a step back, not for long before they tried to grab the guy she was punching. Rin smiled, standing next to her. Only with With some small injured skin on his legs he was fine. Rin took the stick from the guy Reika had jumped on, and began to swing after the other kids. "She will do the same to you if you don't leave" Rin said with a small grin on his mouth. They all went crying, letting the thought of the mouse and taking it back from Rin was long gone. Rin looked at her ragged dress, and saw her blue hair. Tilting his head to the left, he smiled and said "thank you.." And suddenly without a care in the world he asked her, "What have happen to you? what is your name?"

[Saber26]

Reika's eyes were starting to glow a pale blue, but as soon as the boy below her was dragged away, it disappeared. Blinking slightly as she stood behind the boy and watching the group of bullies run away. Her big round eyes stared back at his, they were about the same height. She noticed that the boy had blue hair as well, just slightly darker than her own. She scrunched up her dirty and crumpled dress in her hands when he asked about her. No.. She can't randomly tell people that she was half demon and is being raised by one from hell. But she could at least tell him her name... Right? She pursed her dry lips before speaking. "I'm Reika." She said softly, not really sure if he heard her. "I just fell." She lied, feeling guilty that she did. She looked down to his hands that were still cupped together. "What about you? Why did those bullies chase after you?"

[SoulNote]

They stood right in front of each other Rin looked at her like a normal human five year old would have done. Rin hadn't felt his inner powers yet, they were sealed into the demon blade, a blade that was holding a power the equality of Satan. Rin had his sweater with a sentence about how great food was, and how you always had to eat your vegetables. Rin looked at her, and stepped a little bit closer to her. He smiled when she said her name, and looked down hearing of her fall. Maybe that was what which had made her dress so dirty. Rin held up his hands, and opened it up. A small mouse was showing, sniffing into the air has it looked at Reika. "I saved this guy. They were going to play captain with i think, i wanted to play with them. But, they were going to drown him. I didn't want them to kill him just for fun so i stole him, running after i while i saw this tree thinking i could hide him, then you help me out" He smiled with a kind grin, and held a hand on her shoulder. "My name is Okumura Rin"

[Saber26]

Reika looked at the mouse in Rin's hand in awe, as if she never saw that creature before. Her eyes sparkled, "How... Adorable!" Her sudden outburst, startled the mouse. It's fur was mainly brown but it's left ear was white. She looked back up at Rin smiling widely, as if all her wounds wasn't even there. "You're really brave, Rin-chan!" She giggled, but quickly covered her mouth in shock, what was that that just came out of her? Feeling bashful all of a sudden, she quickly asked, "Do you mind if I call you Rin-chan?" She asked innocently, tilting her head to the side slightly. The mouse squeaked in Rin's palms, and she couldn't help but reach out to it, the mouse sniffed her hand and squeaked angrily, running back up Rin's arm. Reika's happy expression fell, disappointed that the mouse didn't like her. Maybe it could tell that she wasn't a normal human like Rin was.

[SoulNote]

"You can call me whatever you like Reika-chan, you see" Rin blushed but, stooped when the mouse ran back to him. Rin didn't understand why the mouse would run back to him; reika looked like a normal five year old just like himself. Rin saw the sudden unhappy face on Reika so he tried to make her happy again. “Reika-chan, look at me..." Rin took one of his arms on his head and placed the other one on his head. *monkey sounds* Rin jumped a little, crawled around Reika. Laughing a little of himself from making the monkey show. Rin placed a stick in his hand, begin to draw on the ground. The dirt was paper and the stick was his pencil, drawing a monkeys face he wrote his name over it. *big letters a written by a unsteady hand*
