Mika.

He was gone, and I had no power to save him. I had no other choice but to let him be eaten by fire. There was no other option but to run and live.

"Yuu!! Run!"

Mika screamed as flames engulfed him whole. Tears had flown down my cheeks, and pain pounded at my chest.

My eyes shot open as I sat up with a heavy breath. I was in my bedroom, and the sun's rays were attacking my room. It was morning.

I let out a sigh. It was that dream again. For the past ten years, I've been having dreams of the day I lost Mika. The kidnapping... Ferid... the flames. I was six years old back then, and it's been such a long time.

Still, I could never forget.

Mika...

I gazed at my now clenched fist.

I promised myself I would avenge you. If you were here, you would probably scold me for thinking of something so stupid... but hey, I've also got a resolve that you could be proud of too, Mika.

Besides revenge, I also promised I would protect people from experiencing the same fate as I did. Especially children who know nothing better.

It's a little reckless of me, but I've been training myself to become strong... to be someone who could protect people. I don't want others to experience the pain Mika and I had to go through.

I yawned, stretching my arms and getting up from my bed. There was school today, and so I had to get ready. I can't believe I was able to go back to living a normal life...

After Mika had pushed me off the building, and I had ran away, I bumped into a man named Guren Ichinose. He was a middle aged man who was some sort of lawyer that had connections with the military.

He took me in with him, and I've been living my life again. Guren is barely home, but I don't really mind because I get to live my life at my own pace.

The only thing that bothers me is that he tells me he'd ground me if I didn't make any friends. It's kinda stupid though. One, why do I need to make friends? They'll only get in the way if I need to rescue people. And two, that idiot Guren is barely home! He can't tell me I can't go out!

Ding

Dong

The doorbell rang.

I put on my uniform and headed straight to the door to open it. To my surprise, it was someone I didn't know. It was a girl with purple hair tied up. She had a sleepish expression on her face, wearing a uniform from my school. The girl was also pretty tiny.

She held up a piece of paper that had words written on it.

Hello, Hyakuya Yuu-san. My name is Shinoa, and from now on, I will be looking after you courtesy of Mr. Guren Ichinose.

"Ha??" My eyes opened real wide. "Look after me? I'm sixteen years old for pete's sake!" I grabbed my bag and went out of the house, locking and closing the door behind.

I crosses my arms while looking at this Shinoa girl, "And I'm sure as hell a kid like you can't look after me."

Shinoa blinked, and took out a small notepad and pen. A smile came across her face. She then started writing something while mubbling whatever she was writing down, "Hyakuya Yuu-san is as conceited as Guren Ichinose reported. That is probably why he gets into trouble often."

"Hey! What are you writing?!" I scowled.

Her eyes shifted to me, a smile still on her lips, "My reports. That way, Guren Ichinose will believe I was on duty."
