Today is an important day for the Clark's; after 10 months, Mrs. Clark is finally going to give birth to her child. Everybody in the region knows Mr. Clark of the Clark's, that famous and serious Judge, lives here.
After a few hours, the nurse delivering the child walks out from the room with an awkward expression on her face, and goes to Mr. Clark's office to see him.
"Um, Mr. Clark..." The nurse looks at him with a shocking expression on her face.
"Yes? What is it?" Mr. Clark looks at the panicking woman as he frowns.
"Uh...you might need to see it yourself, Mr. Clark."
"What is it that needs me to go take a look at? Why not tell me now?"
"Well...your child seems to be a bit 'special.'"
The two arrives at the room where Mrs. Clark is taking a rest. She's lying on the bed, and next to her is Mr. and Mrs. Clark's child. Mr. Clark notices that the other people who helped with the birthing also seem to be embarrassed. When he walks up to the child, he sees his child, and instantly the expression on Mr. Clark's face becomes more shocked than that of everyone's.
The child is a girl, but her hair is in the color of blond, unlike her parents'; Mrs. Clark's is red, while Mr. Clark's is brown. The most surprising thing however, is that the girl has a pair of terrifying eyes; her eyes are all black; the pupil, the white of the eye - pure black. "What monstrous creature is that?!" Mr. Clark shouts furiously. Nobody talks back. Suddenly Mr. Clark grabs the still-resting Mrs. Clark, "You didn't mess with other people, did you?! Or how can you give birth to such monster!?" "Mrs. Clark is very weak right now, Mr. Clark. Please..." "Like I care about it!" Mr. Clark throws her back onto the bed. "Tell my lawyer to come here." concludes Mr. Clark as he leaves the room.

A few days later, Mr. Clark's lawyer, Taylor, arrives. "Mr. Clark, about your daughter...she certainly is your daughter without doubt; the DNA test does not go wrong, and the sight tests show that her eye sight is normal. The doctor even said that he has never seen a case like this - Her eyeballs are black but she has no problem in her eyesight. In fact, her eyesight is two times of a normal person's." Taylor, standing in front of Mr. Clark's desk, hands him a stack of documents on the girl's information. "But she's a monster. She's not perfect; what I want is a perfect child." Mr. Clark says, without even taking a glance at the documents. "Then...what should we do? Hand her to the orphanage?" Taylor asks. "No, that would affect people's impression on me... If that's the case, then I shall not let her go to school. I will recruit tutors to teach her. Don't let anyone see her. Oh, also, tell the nurses who helped deliver the child not to tell anyone about this. This is a very bad issue to our family." Mr. Clark closes his book and looks at Taylor, "If any accident happens, just finish her off... She is a failure, after all..."
Years later, Dina Angela, the extraordinary girl, is now 13 years old. She doesn't like to talk, possibly because she was locked up in the mansion all her life by her father, therefore became anti-socialized. Dina knows that her father is a very famous Judge, and that he does things very fairly, always look at things in a neutral point of view. However, he always seeks for perfection on everything, which is why he has a very bad relationship with Dina. Despite knowing that her mother and father were never so well with each other before she was even born, it can't be changed; both of their parents decided the marriage themselves that time.
Dina has never stepped outside before because of her eyes. She gets herself a mirror and looks at her eyes; they are pure black, but looking closely, she actually sees little sparkles in them, like a small galaxy. She is often fascinated when looking into her own eyes. Her blond hair is short and messy, but she usually has them brushed whenever her father is around; though it's usually her mother who brushes them.
For Mrs. Clark, she never cares much about how Dina looks; she is always on her daughter's side, always think for her. Of course, she always knows what her husband (who does not like Dina at all) is up to.
Dina doesn't have any friends. Her father has been imprisoning her for all her life, and even though the house is really huge, she still feels very lonely. She used to have thoughts on making a friend or like a certain boy, but it seems impossible in this situation. Currently, the only person that supports her is her mother, Mrs. Clark, so she really adores her. Dina thinks about these things as she watches the kids playing around from the window.
Suddenly, someone knocks on Dina's room door. "Come in." Mrs. Clark comes in and says, "Dina, I will be going to the department store later. Do you want me to buy anything for you?" Mrs. Clark says as she looks at Dina. "No, thanks" "But dear, you haven't been eating anything recently, and you seem thinner than before...I'll buy you something to eat later." Mrs. Clark left the room before Dina can even stop her. "I told you I don't want it...sigh..."
Despite saying no, Dina actually wants to try something from outside; Clothes, food, everything is not interesting for her now. She wants to try something from the outside world, but no...Dina knows that ever since she was born, a maid was employed by my family; her name is Maisha, and her job is to take care of Dina. But the maid's job is actually, in fact, to be Mr. Clark's bodyguard. He spent a lot of money to recruit this woman, who has loads of criminal records, to prevent Dina from causing trouble, as well as to protect him. After all, who knows what Dina will do to him. Thinking to this point, Dina giggles and thought, "If I can, I would want to kill him"
It will be Christmas in a few days, but Dina isn't excited about it, since she always spends Christmas as if it's a normal day; for her, it doesn't matter whether she has celebrated it or not. Fortunately, whenever it's her birthday, Mrs. Clark would always prepare a small cake to celebrate with her; if she hadn't done so, Dina would've forgotten how old she is.
"Since there won't be having any tutoring today, let's do what I usually do", Dina thinks. She stands up from her bed, leaves the room, and starts wandering around the house. Even though Mr. Clark locked her up in the house, he never said anything about not letting her walk around the house. It's a good thing that the house is large, and that the family is pretty much the richest in the region, but Dina isn't complacent just because of that. Also, Dina is utterly disgusted by arrogant ones who cares for their pride.
Dina always visits Mr. Clark's collection room, and even though he strictly forbids Dina to enter that room, she will always sneak into it. In that room, she can stay for a long time, because there is one thing that really catches her eye - a pure white sword. That sword is placed in a glass case, and is isolated from the other collections, as if it's something really special. Whenever Dina gets close to the sword, it creates a soundless resonance, and that sword always shines in a silvery white color. Dina would stand for hours to watch that sword. According to her mother that, according to the legend, the sword originally belonged to an angel, and during a war, the angel accidentally dropped the sword into the human world, and was never found by the angel again. However, since then, the humans of the world began using it for different reasons; it was once used to kill, to protect, for personal benefits etc. Thus the sword was passed down like this for many, many years. There is also a rumor about the sword considering one who builds a good relationship with it its master for eternity.
"Such beautiful sword...If only you are mine" Dina's black eyes reflect the image of the sword. She places her hands onto the glass case, and feels as if she's getting sucked in. Suddenly, she hears footsteps coming close, so she hides herself. The door opens, and someone comes in - it's Maisha; she is doing her daily patrolling. It is obvious that she's looking for Dina, since Dina left the room without her permission. To have Dina's action restricted this badly, she stares at the maid with a hateful look. Dina comes out from where she was hiding as soon as Maisha leaves the room.
