Yukiko POV

I looked up at the signboard that was written colourfully, "Welcome to Namimori." I walked to the nearest shop and stared at my own reflections. "I look shabby in this lively town." I murmured to myself as I settled down for a place to stay. As usual, I've decided to stay here for two weeks before going off to another town.

I felt a heat from my chest. I touched the necklace that I wore around my neck. It's heating up somehow. Not just heating up, it was pointing towards a certain direction. Felt led, I followed where I thought the necklace would want to me go.

To my amazement, it was outside someone's house. Outside the house, the family name 'Sawada' was engraved neatly outside the door. I dont know why was I here. This was my first time coming to this town. All I knew was that my necklace led me to here. My necklace, something which was given to me when I was born, glowed up suddenly. It glowed so bright that I was able to see under my navy blue shirt.

I was told that this necklace was a seal. A rainbow seal which held greater power but till now, I discovered nothing at all other that it led me to this house. Outside the house that hanged 'Sawada' I looked at Coco and he nodded.

Coco has been my companion ever since my best friend died. Though Coco may be a dog, he's worth more than that to me. I felt a pressure..no I think this must be what I've read on the books about their presence.

This must be it. I can feel it. The presence of a boss is inside this house but very mild. And there is something else...No, there are something else..

There were two powers of rainbow inside. Very mild presence of thunder but strong power coming from the sun. I'm unsure if I'm correct or not. After all, I was forbidden to study much about the powers of rainbow ever since young. I only managed to read up a little during my stay at orphanage.

Yet, I keep on hearing shouts after shouts. Am I in the right place? Here sounded like the orphanage that I grew up in.

"Things are pretty lively here huh.. Right Coco?" He nodded and began to walk away. Maybe they had nothing to do with me at all."Alright. Let's go." staring at walked away Coco, I soon began to follow him.

Sitting inside of an abandoned subway, this was my home I've found, at least in Namimori. I wanted to figure out why this rainbow seal led me to Sawada residence. Dazing into space, I recalled back to 11 years ago.

'You must always remember whatever happens, you must stay strong,' Mother Sami said to me every single day. It seem as if I'm the easy target for bullying. I was an orphan, picked up by the nuns at the orphanage when I was an infant. I had no idea who my biological parents were.

"Mother Sami, why do I have this rainbow shape thing around my neck?' I asked Mother Sami every time she put me to bed. "That's because you are special," she always said.

I used to believe, not until I was 5. I started to feel a strong energy ran inside of me. And instead like others, Mother Sami would put me in some special rooms to train me to defend myself. Not only just that, I was given weapons to learn to attack and defense. I picked a long stick because it seem the least scariest among the rest. I'm always wonder why would she paid such weird special attention to me.

Despite I was treated differently, I still managed to make friends. Especially my two best buddies, Shitoro and Mihasa. I loved them because whenever I was bullied because I was treated differently, they would always back me up.

However, things turned when I couldn't control the power that build up in me without my realisation. We were playing a fool when one of the kids started teasing Shitoro for hanging out with Mihasa and I.

"Shitoro, are you a girl? Always playing girly games with Mihasa and Yukiko?!" I wanted to shut him up. Really, what wrong with playing with girls?

This jerk, always bully Shitoro, he should receive a lesson! I picked up a stick on the ground and hit his head. When I hit him, a green electronic current ran through my body to the stick and shocked him. The boy landed on the ground and lay lifeless. That was the first time I killed someone.

Ever since that incident, everyone called me a witch and avoided me, afraid that I would kill them like what I did to that boy. Only Shitoro, Mihasa and Mother Sami were the ones to stay with me because even other nuns were frightened of what I've done.

However orphanage days did not last long. One day, Mother Sami grabbed the three of us and said "You all must escape!! No matter what happens, dont turn back and especially Yukiko, remember what I say to you..and I love you all."

With a quick kiss on our foreheads, Mother Sami led us into an underground path. After seeing Mother Sami left hurriedly, I simply couldn't understand why she did that so I ran back with Shitoro and Mihasa running behind me.

That's when I heard it. That's when I know my destiny when I reached the room that Mother Sami entered. I wanted to run straight in but I heard the gunshot. I was scared..no..scared wasn't the right word.

I should say "fear" because I was fearful of what was happening in the room even though I don't understand why.

I peeked through a small hole through the window where Mother Sami and men dressed in suits were in the room. They pointed gun at her and demanded her to hand over a girl with a rainbow seal necklace.

The girl with the rainbow seal necklace..that's me!

Why would they want me and why would they point a gun at Mother Sami?! Miraculously, Mother Sami saw me through the small hole, and gave me a alarm look. Upon seeing her face, Shitoro quickly grabbed me and dragged me away to escape but I couldn't move, when knowing that Mother Sami was in danger because of me.

I struggled to free myself from Shitoro when I heard a bang. I was stunned, they shot Mother Sami because of me. Hot tears rolled down my cheeks as I was dragged along by Shitoro and Mihasa who were crying silently.

I woke up immediately, with cold sweat rolling down my forehead. These scenes felt so real to me. Looking at my watch, it was 18:00. I got up and started to disguise myself as a male once again. Dressing up as a male, instead of being my true female self, was the only solution I found after going through the long sufferings i had endured.
