"MARI-CHAN~" A lanky brunette shouts excitedly matching the energy of a golden retriever puppy, as he stalks over to me and wraps his arms around my figure.

"Ugh what do you want Rico?" I say as I let him lean on me while I fish out my keys for my locker.

"Master Zhang wants to see ya! I think it's urgent(−_−;)" Ricorin says as he slightly unbuckles his fluffy persona mentioning the master.

"Oh...alright." I say as I finally find my keys and open my locker. Setting down my training gear down, I begin to walk towards his office.

"Mai-Mai~ care to spar afterwards!!?" Rico recovers almost immediately with a slick offer to spar with him. I grin and glance back as his smirk begins to light up on his face, seemingly knowing my answer already, "Course Rico, prepare to have you're ass handed to ya." I say as I turn back ignoring the sly remarks Rico is saying, making my way to the masters office without any more delay.

I open the pristine office door as a slight creek overcomes the silence and I immediately bow down.

"Mairin, such a joy to see you today." A stern voice speaks as I step into the office not even daring to look up. "Darling, you can lift your pretty little face, wouldn't want to scar it now would I?" The voice speaks with a harsh tone commanding me to obey.

"Yes Master." I say blankly as I fix my posture and look up at the Master in his grey suit with slight fear filling through every one of my veins as I see blood staining his cuffs.

"Your coming of age ceremony is approaching correct?" The fox eyed man says as he eyes me up and down with lust, I shudder.

"Sir, I'm turning 19, so my so called 'coming of age ceremony' would have been my 18th correct?" I say with confusion as I try to recollect what the heck 'coming of age' means.

"Ha, darling you have so much to learn. Pity that your father never told you anything." The sliver haired man said as he slightly laughed.

'Yes, that's correct, my father never told me anything. As soon as I was born my father sold me off to Master Zhang and proceeded to live a lavish life of luxury traveling around the world from country to country with my Mother and five elder brothers as I was raised here in the hellish, suffocating atmosphere. I've never seen them of course, but I get frequent updates of those selfish people from this sadistic prick that is my Master now. I mentally cringe as I remember all of the wonderful things that pathetic excuse of a family did without me. Master has found it amusing to give me the random gadgets and trinkets that my 'family' has sent for me. I always throw them away or burn them, why do they constantly feel the need to belittle me while I'm in this horrible man's clutches.'
I take a deep breath as I glance back up at the golden eyed man.

"No Master, He never did say what it meant, nor has he even spoke to me." I say as it was obvious and that we both know my situation.

"Of course, well I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise now would I? I guess we will have to wait till your 19th birthday to figure it out." The man says with a menacing smile as I shudder not knowing what is going to happen to me in 6 months from now.

"Y-yes master." I say as I glance down, trying to hold back my tears that are threatening to fall, I do not want to seem weak in front of this despicable man.
