"WAIT!!" I woke up screaming. "Just a dream, just a dream." I hug myself, repeating that to myself. What time is it, maybe 3 in the morning?

"Neechan, are you okay?" Rokuta asked, sleepily holding onto me.

"Oh, yes I'm okay. Sorry for waking you Rokuta, go back to sleep." I said, tucking him back in.

"Where are you going?" he asked, still holding onto me.

"To get water, don't worry. Just sleep." Softly walking through the hall, I went into the living room and just sat there. I sat there for what felt like an eternity, not thinking of anything.

Knock knock knock

The sudden knock on the door was quite alarming. Taking a glance outside, it seemed to still be five in the morning. Who could it be? I walked towards the door and opened it. Standing outside was... a man. He was deathly pale with jet black hair. He had modern clothes on, but what stood out the most was his eyes.

'You described him to be pale with jet black hair. But the most prettiest thing was the eyes, the ruby red eyes.' My mother's voice drummed in my head, making me grab the door frame.

"C-can I help you with something?" I ask, not trusting my voice as I spoke.

"I would like to speak with your mother." He said in a soft but slightly rough voice. "It's urgent."

Not wanting to face him any longer, I rush to my mother's room to wake her.

"Mother," I whispered, shaking her lightly. "Mother, someone's at the door."

A few minutes later, me and my mother came back to the door. Facing the strange man. "Can I help you?" My mother asked, slightly showing her stern side.

"Yes, are you the Kamado family?" He said, not even trying to introduce himself.

"We are, and who are you?" My mother said, her chest up high.

"The one that's going to get rid of you scumbs."
