Sayoko was walking along thinking to herself that it was the 16th anniversary of her parent’s death and the day she almost died. Her leg was hurting from training with Sen earlier, when she let down her guard he attacked. She went along walking to the remnants of her old house. She went up the long stairs and broken doorways. She got to a room and laid down with a sigh of pain but also relief from getting to rest. She is in pain but her proud nature keeps her from telling anyone even her friends know she is hurt. Sayoko hears a scream in the distance she runs up to the hole, which was once window she looks out and sees a group of soul reapers attacking a girl. Without a thought, she jumps out the window and lands on the floor flawlessly but she forgot about the pain in her leg and is now hurt even more from the height of the fall. She has to prevent the soul reapers from going even farther into the street. She starts to fight but is hindered by her leg. Sayoko is a full body fighter she uses every part of it to her advantage. Not being able to throw any kicks even with all her years of training is hard to overcome. She continues to fight but is losing her stances because of her leg. Trying to overcome the pain, she tries to kick once more but is hit and thrown to the floor. She grunts her way up to a stance just to see that she has been surrounded. She tries to fight her way through. She hears Sen yelling in the distance. SAYOKO TOKEI AUTO!!! . With a wave of a hand, the soul reaper attacks Sayoko. Ughhhhh!!!!! She screams as the soul reaper gashes into her back blood splatters everywhere as she falls to the floor. Sen Runs up and attacks the demons. Sayoko makes her way up to a stand and tries to fight once more. However, she get’s attacked from behind, aghhhhhhh!!! She screams as she is thrown by the blast of rubble. Sen Runs up to her she falls into his arms he clinches her tightly. He puts her up against the wall of the alleyway. Then in frustration, Sen Runs up the monsters and kills every last one of them! Sayoko tries to get up but is to badly injured Sen, goes over to her and helps her up he puts her arm on his shoulder and walks with her to the old house. When they reach the house, Sayoko lays on the bed and falls into a deep fainting sleep. Sen turns her over to clean her wounds. Agh He grunts as he sees the giant gash in her back he lifts up her shirt to be able to clean the whole wound as he does he sees a gashing scar in her back near her ribs. He reaches to touch as soon as his fingers touch the scar Sayoko’s body goes into a panicked state as if she was having a nightmare. Sayoko is now forced to relive the horrible past in a deep painful sleep. Sayoko grunts and sighs in her sleep for she is forced to watch the horror of that painful day, for you see that day was one she’d rather not remember much less relive. It was this same day 16 years ago that sayoko was walking with her parents to go take shelter from the war as they were walking soul reapers appeared out of nowhere her parents defenseless against them tried to run away but the soul reapers surrounded them. They closed in to attack they go up to her mother and father and start to suck the life from there very body’s. their cold white corpses lie there motion less Sayoko runs up to them screaming in terror from seeing her parents dead she kneels down shaking them to try to wake them up the soul reapers go up to her to make her their next victim they begin to suck the life from her little defenseless body but for some reason they stop they did not finish they left her there half alive they begin to walk away leavening her there but they turn around they blast the giant glass wall above them large shards of glass begin to poor down from the sky ripping through Sayoko’s skin a large piece of the glass falls down and pierces through Sayoko’s heart Sayoko’s body is now covered in blood, ahhhhhhhhhhh Sayoko lets out a terrified scream her wide open with tears in her eyes. shocked by what he sees Sen grabs her hand and brings his body close to hers he nears his head to hers confused and unsure how to calm her he kisses her trying to ease her pain. Sayoko’s tremors finally decrease as he lifts his body away from hers he does not want to let go but he must he leaves but still waiting nearby. Later Sayoko wakes up and clinches her head as she sits up. She feels the terrible pain in her back as she rises up from the floor she grabs her chest to feel where the pain is coming from and feels that the wound has been bandaged by someone she feels higher up and relies that whoever did it must have seen the scar on her back. She thinks back to that night and remembers that Sen was there and that he walked with her to the house. She proceeds to walk out of the room she walks clinging to the wall for balance for her leg is still broken she walks along halfway denying that she’s looking for someone but gives up and believes that Sen is not there. She continues walking and is about to turn the corner when Sen walks by she tries to stop but she can’t move quickly enough and knocks into him their hands touch each other’s as try to stop and suddenly flashes from that nigh in the house pass through her
