-Years Ago; Shie Hassaiki Household Garden-

    The sun had reflected off of the water, allowing the rays of the sun to shine within where the koi fish had swam as a couple of people sat along the wooden path. A young girl with a cloud blue shade of her hair wearing a light blue dress had been sitting in the lap of a teenager as she had been reading her a picture book. A young man had been just across from her, as he had been keeping her company; the young man looked to be wearing a face mask as his eyes were that of golden as he looked to be wearing white gloves.

    His hair had been short and shaggy in the color of auburn as he had a small scar on the left side of his forehead; he had been wearing a black t-shirt with gray khakis with white shoes.

    The young teen black shirt with a cross insignia in the middle and short dark gray pants reaching to her mid-thigh and she had on a pair of dark red boots; she had scars along her arms and legs, some large and some had been small; one had been seen reaching to her neck.

    Most of her hair had rested on her shoulder as most of the right side had been green while a small amount of her left had been a light purple. The child in her lap with her eyes that of orange, looked to be covered in bandages as a set of numbers had been on her neck, reading 74018.

    The young teens eyes seemed to have changed colors in a certain blinking pattern.

    "I sat there with Sally--" The young teen girl read to the curious child, "--We sat there we two. And I said, 'How I wish, we had something to do!' Too wet to go out, and too cold to play ball. So we sat in the house, we did nothing at all."

"That damn rhyme--" The young man said, "I don't think I'll ever get it out of my head. Doesn't she ever get tired of it?"

"I can't help it if it's her favorite book." The young teen said to him, her voice sounding soft.

The young man clicked his tongue in a bit of annoyance.

"Don't be like that." She told him, "She's only a child after all."

"Figures you would say that." He told her, "I still don't understand why you took her in."

"Simple." She said, "It was the little one's choice to come here."

    Soon enough, a man had approached the two of them, as they appeared to have been wearing suits and looked to be armed.

    "Master Kai, Lady Alcina." He said, "I don't mean to interrupt but someone is here to see you."

"Send them off." The young man named Kai had told him, "Can't you see neither of us aren't in a mood for talking to anyone?"

"Sir, I'm afraid he's insisting." The older man told him.

Just as he said this a young teen had entered the garden. His appearance is short black dreads with a red suit and white tie as he had a blue crystal necklace. Alcina and Kai seemed to have recognized him just from the crystal.

The young man said as he bowed, "Afternoon Chisaki-san and Nouki-san. I hope I'm not interrupting anything."

"I remember you." Kai said as he stood, and approached him, "You and that other one were with that man Keita when he was meeting with our old man last week. It's Tau isn't it?"
