Element 00 – Revenge is my Life

Blood. Anything was covered with blood. A young girl of about five years stood at the top of the great staircase that lead down into the hall. On the floor laid her family within a fast growing puddle of blood. Blood as red as the color of her clan or her family’s haircolor. The red eyes of the girl widened in horror, her mouth opened for a terrific scream but she wasn’t able to say anything. Instead she stared at her beloved family. Everyone, her mother and father, her sisters and brothers and cousins, they were dead. The girl’s eyes filled with tears and she started crying silently. Softly, she was pulled into the embrace of the elder woman beside her who turned her head into the other direction.

“Don’t look, Angel. Please.”

The girl’s hands grabbed in the woman’s skirt and she cried. Then she turned her head and looked to the other side of the hall. Her eyes widened as she saw a man in an aquablue armor standing in the doorframe. The man noticed her look.

“Commander! I’ve found the two missing!”

He pulled out a lasergun and pointed directly at the girl. She stayed silent, frozen in shock, and then did the only thing she could do. She screamed.

“Iieeeeeee!!”

With a terrific scream, a young girl raised from her sleep. She was breathing heavily, sweatdrops covered her body. Strains of wet, deepred hair covered her face which was completely hidden in the shadows except for her intense red eyes. A long moment of silent passed before she sighed in relief.

“It was only a dream.”

She got up and walked through her room, heading towards the balcony. The white curtains were waving in the soft wind and the moonlight danced over the floor. Once outside, the girl stretched and breathed in deeply for some time before she raised her head to face the starry night.

“So beautiful. If only it wouldn’t always remind me of that night.”

Angel leaned against the balcony and closed her eyes only to see that scene once again. Her parents laying on the floor of their villa within their own blood. Tears slowly traced down her face and she didn’t bother to wipe them away. She let them fall.

“Mum, dad .... I’m going to avenge you. The pride and status of our clan will be established once again and it will be greater than ever before.”

Her hand touched the red necklace around her neck, its pendant had the form of a dragon with a gleaming red gem in its claws. Angel lifted the pendant up to the moon and made her promise. A promise which was taken up all her life and energy, a promise which was as important for her as nothing else.

“The Clan of Water will regret the day they wiped out the leaders of our clan. Revenge. I’ll show them what it means to lose loved ones. This feeling.”

The knuckles turned white as her hands clutched onto the railings. Angel’s red eyes were shining with anger and hate, her expression was more than determinated.

“I’ll be the Shini Megami for the Clan of Water.”
