I see a strange girl holding a big sword, a katana to be precise.

She is walking toward a man who seems very nice.

I thought to myself, "Wait. What is she going to do to him?"

She stopped in front of him and picked up a hair pin.

She was still bent over when he struck at her,

His body changed from that of a man to that of a bat that is without fur.

I turned off my mower and ran to her aid.

I didn't care if I wasn't going to be paid.

Just as I was about to tackle the beast to the ground,

I remembered that new power that I recently found.

I stopped three meters from the ugly creature,

And I concentrated on its chest's features.

As I watched, the creature's chest exploded. The blast knocking us to the ground.

She stood up lighting fast and was surprised at the sight she found.

She seemed to think that it might soon become regenerated.

Blood flowed out of the gaping hole onto the ground which became saturated.

She saw me stand up and looked from it to me and back.

My body felt heavy like... a completely stuffed backpack.

She took one last look at it to make sure it was dead, and walked over to me.

I shouldn't have ran that fast with my sore knee.

"Who are you? Or should I say what are you?"

An easy question, as easy as the problem two plus two.

But for some reason, I was speechless at what I had just done.

My body felt warm, as if I had touched the sun.

My mind was a broken calculator that couldn't come up with an answer to a problem.

We were in the town of Salem.

The creature before us was a hideous sight.

It's corpse was disintegrating and giving off a bright white light.

The sword wielding high school girl said, "Never mind. Soon the cops will be here."

At those words, I lost all fear.

I stood up and said, "All right then."

We ran nonstop for three hours until we found an abandoned bear den.

We stopped for a little rest.

She wanted to perform a little test.

She took her sword and cut the palm of her hand.

I then noticed why the bear had gone away, there was too much sand.

After catching her blood in a small ceramic cup,

She became lighting and cut my hand after looking up.

I watched as she mixed her blood with mine.

The reaction we saw did not seem... in any sense of the word... fine.

On contact, our blood froze but instantly began to thaw.

Our expressions were of shock and awe.

She said, "There is something strange about you, because I have never seen this before."

That shocked me to the bone, but our blood wasn't done reacting, there was still more.

It changed very quickly and went from red to violet along the rainbow.

Did my sensei know? Did Song Ling Fo know?

Does she know about this girl?

The dragon bracelet on my wrist came to life and crawled into my palm, where into a ball it curled.

I was shocked. It had only done that around my teacher, Song.

This girl didn't seem to notice, for she was staring at the blood which had formed something thin and long.

It looked like a short sword with a blood red blade.

The red soon began to fade.

As if it was a painting exposed to water.

When it finished it looked like an old fashioned weapon for slaughter.

The awe I felt was too great to put into words.

I suddenly felt like we could take off and fly around like little birds.

We looked at each other and I noticed something. We had the same hair and eyes.

The left eye like blood, the hair like winter skies.

The pupil of the right eye was a golden cross,

Surrounded by a pitch black gloss.

I grabbed the eye patch over my demonic right eye and removed it.

When she saw our resemblance, all she did was look for a place to sit.

She said, "OK, give me a minute to think."

As she did so, I picked up the sword made from our blood, flicked it with my finger and it made a small clink.

I said, "Earlier you asked me what my name was. Well it's Marcas Anaka."

She giggled and said, "Nice to meet you Marcas. I'm Reina Anaka."

I said, "If I had to guess, I would say the we are twins."

Reina said to herself, "Well. I was; nearly killed by something that I normally kill, saved by some guy I've never met, and found out that he is my brother, all in one day. What's next? Am I going to grow gills and fins?"
