The birds were chirping and the sun was shining yet Shirayuki couldn't bring herself to smile. She watched helplessly as her father forced her baby brother, Shoto, to train once again even though he was only five.

As they got older herself,Toya, Fuyumi,Natsuo and Shoto became more and more secluded  and isolated themselves from other people. Toya protected Yuki from their "fathers" violent outbursts. Eventually it got too much for Toya and he snapped.

"Yuki pack a bag, we're leaving." She nodded and rushed to pack a bag. At this point in time Toya was 17 and Yuki was 10. Their hands were intertwined as they pulled comfort and strength from one another.

"Our hair colours will give us away." Yuki whispered as she gently tugged on her red hair. Toys nodded and steered the pair towards an open shop.

He grabbed a box of black and brown hair dye. He turned to Yuki who nodded at the colours. She followed Toya as he paid for the dye. "Where'd you get the money?" She asked once they left the shop.

"Stole it from him."

They travelled to their Mother's hospital room. When they walked in the room, Rei instantly knew that they wanted to erase him from their lives from the bruises and blank stares. She nodded to say she would help them with whatever they wanted.
