• I'd heard it a thousand times before. That voice that spoke my name so tenderly with love. It was like a siren's song, a dream I never wanted to wake up from, and then came that insistent beeping. Oh, wait, it is a dream.

    I lean over to slap my alarm clock off the bedside table when a petite hand grabs mine.

    "Hello there, sleepyhead, what would you like for breakfast?" the angelic voice asks me.

    This is Haven, my roomate by default. She has the ability to see into the future, but she hates the sudden flashes she gets when she's near people. She's a beautiful, 4 foot, raven-haired, sweet, fun-loving, little gal. As for why she hangs around me, well she doesn't seem to get any flahes when she's around me. She's about 6 years old and is the world's best cook. Every morning, she makes me breakfast then I'm off to school and so is she. Since school is a bit of a hassle for her, she keeps a lock of my hair on a chain around her neck. Oh by the way, she's a demon.

    Her angelic twin sister, Katana, currently resides in hell, and Haven is not allowed passage into hell until she turns 18, or I do, that is, because I'm going to have to do all the work. Ironically enough, she lacks the fighting skills and motive, unlike her sister Katana (boy did they sure name her right) who is a killing machine. If you went into a battle with that girl you could probably fall asleep and you wouldn't have a scratch on you when you woke up. Not that she'd let you fall asleep in battle, that is, she makes a lot of noise in battle, in fact a lot of noise flat out. Her snoring is like an elephant. Jesus, is it loud.

    As for myself, my names Kitahora, remember it! I used to take long walks with Katana and Haven until Lucifer kidnapped Katana to use her for his immortal army. Ever since then, I've been reall jumpy, and several people have asked me if I smoke. I even got called into the pricipal's office to discuss my "problems" at home.

    Well, Katana, Haven, and I live alone, well, Haven and I now, and I work hard labor jobs like construction work to keep physically fit and make some money to buy Haven and I what we need to get by. Haven wanted to quit school alltogether and try to find a job herself, but I told her that for me all I want is Haven to be smart, and Haven makes sure I always get what I want. So she really cracked down on the books, and now she can read music sheets and recite Shakespeare as if she were reading it off of a book that only she could see. Katana used to make sure I got whatever I wanted, as well, but she's gone now, and I have to wait two more years before I can get her back.

    My family is Yakuza, well was Yakuza that is. They're all dead now. Lucifer sent his underlings after our family and thats how I met Katana and Haven. Katana was the brawn while Haven was the brains (also the decoy). They worked under Satan's "Raw! Raw! Cheer Squad Army" until I rescued them that fateful night.
    I remember it clearly, I woke up after hearing a loud crash. Then, voices came. Two small high-pitched voices that were nearly the same. I could barely hear what they said, so I inched closer to the door of my small, compact, basement-like room.

    I opened my door slowly, the all of a sudden- CRASH!- in came two little kids half my size in pig-tails, and black lace dresses. They were almost identical, except for certain aspects like their hair and face.
