PrologueA Chapter by Hikaru01Monsters, that's what had killed my family. Because of them I had to move in with my uncle, he was my last living relative; I know I should feel lucky that he is still alive and willing to take me into his home. If it weren't for my uncle I would be out on the streets struggling to survive each day. However, there is something strange and unnerving about him; during the day I go to school with my friends, it's there that I learn to control and use my abilities. My uncle had work though so we would rarely see each other and this meant I had to learn a lot of things at a young age, but I was okay with that. After my uncle had finished worked he would come home but for only a short while before he left again. He would be gone for hours and then if by chance he would arrive home but he would be covered in scratches and blood; a lot of blood. I worried about him. Each night before he went out I would ask him what he did once he left but he would ignore me. One night it looked like I was finally going to get an answer from him but instead he just told me to go to my room. I was only ten so I did as I was told and I went go to my room. Eventually my uncle started coming home earlier and was covered in less scratches; I had started to hope that it meant he would no longer go out for a long period of time during the night. I was wrong. It was a Wednesday when he had come home covered in blood, a lot of blood. After studying his face and arms I came to the conclusion that not only would some of the scratches need stitches but he would also be covered in bruises. I had offered to call a healer to come attend to his injuries but he had declined saying it wasn't as bad as it looked and then he went up stairs to his room. Eventually, I got curious and started searching the house; I had hoped that I would find something that would explain why my uncle was constantly injured and covered in blood; I had searched the whole house in the matter of a week and found nothing. I repeated this process for two more months before I had given up and continued my life as normally as a ten year old girl could.
