{Story Start}

A boy with short spiky brown hair and bottle green eyes could be seen running along the sidewalk of a very large school. As he came to a halt and caught his breath, he held his hands out as if he was unsheathing a sword, "Ready yourself, Senko!" as he yelled this, his Device, a sheathed katana appeared in his hand. As he began to unsheath it, he revealed it's blade to be as black as the starless sky.

The boy put the sheath to his hip, before he started swinging his katana slashing the air as if it was his opponent

The boy put the sheath to his hip, before he started swinging his katana slashing the air as if it was his opponent. As he did, his memories drifted to a time of when he was a child.

{Flashback; 12 Years Ago}

The boy, as he was when he was a 4 year old, ran through the forest with rage and pain in his eyes. He ran from those he was suppose to call "family". He couldn't see them as that, especially after finding out what they plan to do to him. He let his fear of death and his rage at those who were suppose to love him fuel his body, but eventually it gave in making him fall to the ground with tears of sadness and rage in his eyes, "Do you truly want to give up?" the boy heard a voice call to him but made no move, not that he could, "Does it hurt? To know those who share your blood would make you shed it so easily? That you are the weakest out of them all?" the boy grit his teeth and clenched his small fists, unintentionally grabbing a fist full of dirt, "That's good. Hold onto those feelings with all your might. Those feelings are living proof that you aren't ready to leave this world. Not yet at least." the small boy started to move his arms and legs to stand up, even though every muscle in his body was screaming at him and demanding him to stay where he was, "Stand up. If they won't give you your dream, then take it with your own hands. If they would try to destroy it, defend it. If they would try to destroy your soul, destroy theirs a hundred times more. Remember......"

{Flashback End}

"Trust in your soul and your sword. They will never lead you wrong." the boy repeated the words as they appeared in his head, before recalling his Device and leaving for his dorm room. He had heard that there was going to be a new student coming in, 'And chances are I'll be chosen to fight them. I should prepare myself just in case.'
