Senna walked into her house. "I'm home." She shouted. "Ah Senna, excellent. Will you come here?" Came a voice around the corner. Senna slid her shoes off and set them next to an unfamiliar pair. "Yes Father." She said studying the shoes. "Whose are these?" She thought to herself. She walked into the next room. "WHAT THE HELL?!?" She screamed. "Ah Senna, meet Raven-kun." Said her Father. "What is you doing here?" She asked angrily. "So you two know each other?" Senna's father asked. "Yes Kaminu-sensei." Said Raven. "SENSEI?!" Senna yelled. "Inside voice Senna. Raven-kun I told you not to call me Kaminu-sensei here." Said Kaminu. "Yes sir." Said Raven. His face showing no emotion. "Can you please call me Kaminu?" He asked laughing nervously. "Forget that. Why are you here?" She asked with a voice of frustration. "He will be living with us." Said Kaminu. There was a long silence. "WHAAAATTT?" Senna yelled. "Inside voice Senna!" Kaminu said louder. "With the attacks on the rise like they are we need to protect you around the clock." Kaminu explained. Raven stood up. "Kaminu-san, I would like to retire to my room until my shift begins." He said bowing slightly. "Yes Raven, I will see you then." He said. Raven walked out of the room. Senna watched as he moved into the room next to hers. "He is hard to talk to." Kaminu said with a deep sigh. "Then why did you hire him?" Senna asked slightly annoyed. "I was his father's friend and Raven is the best for the job." Kaminu said leaning back. Senna left the room. She walked down the hall to Raven's room and knocked on the door. "Come in." Came a voice that sent shivers down Senna's spine. She slowly opened the door. The darkness in the room consumed all that it touched. Once her eyes got used to the darkness she could make out a human shape on the floor. As she entered the room seemed to glow from the walls. "What is that?" She asked startled. "Those are phosphorescent flowers that my mother and I used to grow." He said with his back turned. Senna looked over at him. She could sense sorrow in his voice. His shirt was off and his body was covered in black lines. "What are those for?" Senna asked. The lines faded. Raven turned around. Senna noticed his eyes were glowing a deep red. They almost immediately went back to their silver color. "What brings you here?" He asked as he stood up. Blood was running off of his hand. "I came to ask you something... but I forgot what it was." She looked at his hand. "Doesn't that hurt?" She asked staring at the wound in his hand. "No." His face staying in the same emotionless state. "Come here." She said leading him out of the room.

Senna sat in the grass on the front lawn. "Sit." She said. Raven did as he was told. Senna picked up his hand and started to patch up the wound. Raven's eyes were darting around to see if there was any danger. "Don't worry, we're safe here." Raven stopped. "Yes Ojou-sama." They sat for a bit as Senna finished with the wound. When she was done Raven flexed his fingers to make sure that it was comfortable. "How is that?" She asked. "It is much better. Thank you Ojou-sama." His cold silver eyes watching her. "Don't call me that." She said. "I am sorry Ojou-sama." He said bowing. "Ugh, nevermind. Anyway what was with your eyes back there?" She asked. "What do you mean?" He asked. "When you turned around I could see your eyes were glowing red in the darkness." She said. "You also had black lines all over your back." Raven sat there. "The lines were seals that allowed me to keep watch over a certain area around me while I slept." He said. "What about the red eyes?" She asked. "I am not sure I know what you mean." He said. His voice was firm but icy. "My shift is starting. Ojou-sama, You may want to get some sleep. I will watch things around the house." He said not noticing Senna eyeing him suspiciously. "Alright she said." Senna said as Raven stood up. He held out his hand to help her up. She took it and helped herself up. "Alright then, I'm going to bed." She said walking inside. Raven looked out into the Forest on the left side of the main house. He turned and walked inside.
