********************

*That night in my bedroom*

A lot of things happened today. I realised this world is from the anime. I met Albert James Moriarty and also a guy who is just like me but he's clueless about this world. In order to prove him the truth about this world. I explained to him about Moriarty. A scene that is yet to happen. The adoption of Louis and William. Just because Steve and I said that we are friends now. Our parents happily agreed to have us visit each other. Steve's parents also made Albert's parents to let him visit Albert.

Steve is quite a schemer. I do know he wants to know the truth, whether I am right or just bluffing. He even said that he'll will inform me before hand when he'll meet Albert. So that I can also be there with them. Well, I have decided that once Albert burn down his family, I'll break all contacts with Moriarty. I'll stay away from them. But right now, I have to make Steve believe me. I want him to be in my team because we have something in common. But if he act too suspiciously I swear, I'll cut all ties with him as well.

Now, I have to think about myself. First, I need to get physically stronger. Second, I need to grasp the scenarios happening around me. So I can act accordingly. For me who is only 5, getting out alone is not easy. But I guess for now, I should use Albert and Steve for letting me see the world outside this house of mine.

So let's get started with my first plan for now. While reading newspapers, I collected some useful news. That might help me proceeding with this plan. There is one ruthless news that can do the work.

*the next morning*

*In my parents room*

"Mom, Dad!" I dashed towards them with teary eyes. They were standing near the bed and previously talking about something. I hugged them altogether. They were shook looking at me.

"What happened, honey? W-why are you shivering like that?" I can sense her worriness through her voice.

"Don't cry, my daughter." He wiped my tears. "Tell me what is the reason. Did someone tried to hurt you?" Father said. He looked worried and angry at the same time. The reason is he can't see his children suffering in any way. He can do anything for them. All parents are like that.

"Yes, tell us. Don't be scared. We are here for you." Mother hugged saying that.

"I am scared ,mom, dad." I said wiping my tears. "I don't want to die." I started bawling.

"Who made you say that? If that person is in this mansion then I won't forgive them. Just tell me who dared to say such words to you?" My father's anger raged at it peak.

"...this *hic*" I showed them the newspaper I was holding throughout this drama. They looked at it with confusion. "A little girl same age as me, was kidnapped and tortured by the kidnappers. Then they burned her to death." I said while weeping so hard. "and she was also a noble like me. I don't want to die like that. Dad!" They both got worried looking at me.

"Nothing like that would happen, my little girl. We will always protect you." My father said, trying to assure me of his words.

"But what will I do if they still kidnap me?" I weeped louder. "I want to get stronger so I can fight them, dad!" I said with teary eyes.

"You don't need to do that, honey! We can't let you get hurt by fighting. We'll give you a bodyguard instead." My mother insisted. That's why I used this method because they don't want their precious daughter to learn fighting. I need to learn to kick asses or I won't survive.

"What if the bodyguard turned into a bad guy? ah! It would never happen since he is assigned by dad. During party, I heard a lady saying her bodyguard killed her son because her son was weak and demanding. The bodyguard get angry easily but it's alright, I'll behave myself. I am weak and sometimes, I do get demanding but I don't think he will kill me for that. After all, that bodyguard is assigned by my dad. I don't need to get stronger then even if I'm weak the bodyguard won't hurt me" I said with innocence. Listening to my nonsense, my parents looked at each other.

"Our daughter should learn self-defense." Said father while looking at mother. Oh yes!!! That's what I want to listen!

"You're right, dear. She shouldn't be weak." She agreed.

"I've decided. I'll hire an instructor who teach her how to defend." Father exclaimed.

"Dad, but you said it doesn't matter if I'm weak."

"No, Jane. You must get stronger. Not only you but Ethan too." That's right, dad!! You're the best!

And that's how my parents agreed to let me learn self-defense. Plan 1 clear!

*2 months later*

I've been suffering from all the self-defense. After just 1 week, my older brother almost gave up. But he still continued to practice for my sake. He said he wanted to protect me by getting stronger. He is so precious! I'll make sure that he won't get into bad company. Now, it's been 2 months and I don't seemed to make any progress but I can't give up. Thanks to this crazy world.

This afternoon, I received a letter from Steve. He wrote that he's coming to pick me up so we can go to Albert's place in two days. My parents agreed since they really trust Steve's family. Ofcourse! my parents assigned a (highly trusted) bodyguard to me just for . My brother is also going to meet his friends that day so he won't be with me. Anyway, I have no idea what event is gonna happen so I'll just obverse this time. And now, I'll give this sore body of mine some rest. My trainer said learning techniques is no big deal but brushing up those skills everyday is crucial. According to him, I'll learn the techniques easily, but to master them it will take almost 3-4 years. I also need to take good care of my diet. *Sigh* it's too long.
