Kimi had ran away three moons ago. She was scared, lonely, tired, and starving. Her clothes were dingey and full of muck. Ebony hair, once soft and shiny, now matted and slightly bloodied.

Kimi figured life would be easier without her father. She now knew how wrong she was. Life wase hard on the street. A young girl either had to learn to fight or how to sell her body and in many cases both. The grey cloudy eyed girl had experience in both. Her small body still cringed when she saw old 'costumers'.

The dark, moonlit sky gave a feeling of comfort upon the weary girl. The hunters of the night would be out soon, as would the private police, who were extreamly voilent men. If her alliby wasn't good enough, they would take her away, or worse. Any runawaym male or female, was at risk after curfew. Her barcode, upon her right arm, covered by her sweater. The slightest scan and, POOF!, back to the hellish home in which she had resided at.

Not that anything had happened to her; so far. The hose was so big and lonely now that her mother had passed. Not that it had eer been small.
Her mother had been truly beautiful. Long, wavy ebony hair, much akin to her daughter's hair.Yet, her eyes were a firecracker green - something extremly peculiar to the Native Americans. The woman had been short and willowy. She had been the best lawyer anyone could find as well. The young girl had been so proud of her mother, but then somebody shot the woman out of hate - and got away with it.

The dark haired female dispised the drunkard she had of a father. He was a tall blonde that drunk heavily after his wife's death, but never allowed those to work for him realise he drank. He was the owner of the largest company in Northern Hemispere and in Australia.It was this company that had created the retched barcodes and synthetic bodies that held soulds to them, they also 'killed' Microsoft to say the least.

The barcodes instantly said who somebody was, but they had a flaw in their creator's eyes - they could not track a soul. That flaw was key to many runaways' safety.

These barcodes were implantedwhen one was a child. Everyone had a barcode, except for the elderly. If a parent refused to have their child barcoded they were thrown in prison, and the child was sometimes murdered. Some parents just disappeared.

Kimi was the first to be coded. So there was no need to even scan her. She had '01' right above the barcode. Everyone knew that '01' was the daughter of the owner. Rumour had been that her mother was against the coding and Kimi's father had her done away with, but that was not possible...was it?

Right now Kimi had no time to trouble herself with such thoughts. She had to get moving and find a safe place to sleep. It was hard in the city. She wandered through the park towards an underground hideout when she heard the soft whine.

"Hnn?" The small girl looked around franticly, then she spotted it. He appeared to be a black puppy and his leg was bleeding. "Oh my god!" she said as she lifted the poor pup. She could not tell what breed he was. Ah well, maybe if he had a bath..... but that was not accesible to the young woman currently. She would have to go home in order to clean him up and save him.

Anpu was in agony when the girl fell upon him. 'Alas my end has come...' He let out a sad sigh expecting her to finish him. To his great shock he was lifted from the ground and handled gently. 'What creature is this to handle me so? For this girl must be but a child, yet she seems a runaway? What reason is this that she ceases her flee for a pathetic demon as my self? This girl must be a fool to believe that she can help me in any form! For she is shaking from the cold.'
