In the city of Ruthera, on a sunny afternoon there was a girl with long, brown hair and blue eyes who wore a Japanese kimono, called Shingetsu Karin, she was young and beautiful at only 16 years old.
She was walking on the sidewalk of a square, and saw a running child deciding to see what happened. As she came across a quick glimpse of her parents playing with her. Hearing a loud bang of a firework she wakes up, noticing that it was just a Victorian girl playing with her parents.
She stays down with only one tear in silence, deciding to sneak out of there. She walked slowly until she got home, as if she was dead, arriving at the yard full of pine trees that had lived there for over 2 years, but on this day as if it was a gray place there was no life. A voice is heard saying:
-Daughter, You are late for your duties....
Karin furious and lifeless shouts:
-Damn the duties and this life!
Yunna, Karin's mother, not understanding anything and starting to get nervous, shouts along:
-What's up!
Karin aggressively retorts her mother saying:
-I already know how to manage, nobody needs you, Mother!
Yunna decides to end the conversation by speaking in a threatening tone:
-To the bedroom, young lady! Now!
Karin tries to insist on the conversation:
-You were unable to protect him!!! And you think you can lock me up forever...
Yunna speaks her last words to Karin:
-Ah, Karin... if only you understood how things are...
Karin leaves the yard furious as if she was going to kill someone, entering the house she slams the front door and goes up to her room.
Karin starts whimpering in her room in despair of what she is going to do. At dawn Yunna goes to check to have a talk with her daughter, opening the door she finds the room all turned around and her daughter was not there screaming Karin!? KARIN!?
Yunna wastes no time, runs to the center of the room and takes a stamp written in Japanese "Track" channeling her aura into the stamp, sticking the talisman on the floor. Sparks start to come out of her eyes whispering "invoke".
She looks at the window in front of her, seeing a trail of traces of where Karin went, Yunna without thinking twice jumps from the window falling crouching with her fists on the ground and begins to run to be where she went.
In a place called the "Umbras lab", Karin is in a tank of water, she tries to start waking up hearing two individuals talking:
-There must be something wrong with the devices...
The other scientist said, disbelieving what he saw:
-"Indeed. This guinea pig should not be so strong by these standards.
One of the scientists asks:
-Are the meters calibrated?
One of them states:
-100% I adjusted them today.
One of the scientists gets excited and says.
In that case... that one will hold interesting improvements.
The other says with total animation:
-When we're done, she'll be an elite super soldier!
Karin wakes up and is startled by what they said and decides to try to get loose to get out of there, one of the scientists notices her trying to get out and yells to the other scientist:
-She woke up! She's awake! Push the red button!
Karin gets a shock so strong that her eye twitches and she ends up fainting, one of the scientists is relieved and says with an optimistic tone:
-I hope she survives.
The other agrees, saying with a warning tone:
-Slow down! We can't lose specimens of this level!
Karin, at the exact moment she faints, begins to wonder:
-What is this? Where am I?
A mysterious voice says to Karin:
-You are on the astral plane, young lady
Karin confused asks the mysterious voice:
-I died?!!!?
The voice says with a tone of mystery:
-Not yet. That will depend on you...
Karin asks a question that won't shut up:
-What? Who are you?
