5 year old Marinette Dupain-Cheng was picking up the pieces and keeping them to a side. I, 21 year old Marinette Dupain-Cheng, am staring out of the window streaming the half risen suns' light. Nothing hasn't changed so far, which is extremely good even though it hasn't been a minute. The gun still falls out of Gabriels- or the new neighbour's pocket. There were still a few boxes of snow above a blanket of snow. The black metal-like object was peeking from Gabriels' pocket. He never was good at hiding. As much of a mysterious man he was, I do wonder why he chose that house to stay in. Wouldn't he have read the history of it? The abode that has been vacant for a decade until now. Younger me always questioned as to why no one lived there, mama wouldn't tell me so the newspapers did. Murder: Gruesome, repulsive and merciless. I never thought of Kagami Tsurugi's past. The newspaper had it that Kagami's father pierced a dagger- which had been in the Yukimuras' families' heirloom- through Tomoe Tsurugi's eyes. Her father had been drinking apparently but I think it's something else. Kagami's father was Xiang Yukimura, a well-known business man back in the day. Kagami wasn't born at the time but her sister Kira was. You could hear her screams as she saw her mothers eyes pierced and then gauged. No one answered her screams except her father who later on answered it with a bullet straight to the heart. She was only 7. Crawling under her bed to hide, to be safe before being dragged out ruthlessly. Tomoe was unconscious on the floor, presumed to be dead by the attacker. She was next to the bed where Kira went for protection. It was seen in the recording Kira made in her last hour: Mortified terror vividly seen on her pale face as she stared at the bloodshed knowing she was helpless; it was barbaric. Kira turned to the murderous monster, disgusted. Her beautiful brown eyes glimmered with tears, she probably wanted to cry the Pacific Ocean but she knew that there wasn't enough time. You could tell she wanted to be strong in her last moments, but a few tears couldn't help but cascade down her bright red cheeks. She leaped out of her hiding space, dodging her fathers bullet and grabbing the gun off a wooden desk. Both father and daughter pulled a trigger on each other. The so-claimed "fathers" bullet landed in Kira's heart whilst Kiras' went right through Xiang's brain: in between his eyes. Tomoe survived but was blinded. The other two did not. She mourned the loss of her baby. So young yet so heroic. Kira was given an award however this angered Tomoe as she yelled in japanese, "YOU ARE GIVING ME A REWARD FOR MY DAUGHTERS DEATH, PATHETIC". I don't know how Kagami entered the world, and I'm positive that Tomoe is not her biological mother. That was the awful, awful, awful crime committed. I don't know if it could have been prevented. Five year old me got off the floor after gathering the pieces and looked outside the window to have one more gaze of this mesmerisation that stood in front of me. That's when mini marinettes' jaws dropped and eyebrows raised. I was grinning upon mini me. It was the cutest boy 5 year old me had ever seen, or the only boy- Adrien Agreste.
