Prologue - Perfection = Imperfection

"Why did you stop moving!" "Yes sir I would like this one!" "17 year old girl for sale! only 1000$ for this fresh curvy virgin!" These were the sounds of scum, the sound of Human traffickers, sellers, and buyers alike. But this was just the first level of the atrocities, the second level was for those with more than enough money, and even darker hearts.

"So, Madam Crital. This is the boy you were asking for." A man wearing a suit said, pulling a leash attached to a child with lifeless eyes, who didn't even look 7 years of age yet. "Hmm... I see, mind telling me the acomplishments of this so called genius boy?" Lady Crital said, tapping the tip of her cigarette into the ash try and taking another breath of smoke in.

"This child is very smart and obedient, He was able to learn everything we have asked him too, going so far as too beat those who's profession's revolved around such subjects. Being able to read, write, and solve equations mulitple years ahead of his age. He also Seem's to have a somewhat perfect memory, only remembering things he has intrest in. I'm sure you will love him Madam Crital." The man then pulled out a document and a check for 10,000$ "All you have too do is pay."

"Okay, And with this I shall be taking this child with me." Crital then sign's the document, taking the leash from the man and going towards the door.

They then arrive to a multi story futuristic house, Madam Crital walks inside and down into a basement. The only things in there are a mattress with a pillow, a cage, and adjustable wall shackels. "Kid this will be your home, you have no rights here, you are going to be made into my bodygaurd, and into the successor of the Crital mafia. I expect great things, and even greater results." Crital said, walking to the door, opening it, and slaming it shut.

"I DIDNT TELL YOU TO STOP DID I!" A large man yells, cracking a whip on the ground next to him. He's staring at a small black haired shirtless child. "NO SIR!" The boy yelled, getting back up and returning to running.

'This boy... he is either not human or he is a science experiment, most athletes couldn't handle an hour of straight running. He's more comparable to a Marine soldier than an Athlete. To think he's only 7. Poor kid.' The man thinks in his mind, before going back to yelling at the boy.

"Why do you run!?" "To get stronger for Madam Crital!" "What were you born for!?" "Too be the perfect human for Madam Crital!" The boy and the man screamed back and forth, making it seem like the man is teting to brainwash the child.

"Stop! You are done running for today, after a 15 minute break go into the basement to recieve your pain resistant training." After hearing that the boy simply got up and turned towards the mansion, showing his back full of whiplash wounds and scars.

"Boy. It's time for the ceremony, are you ready?" The same man from before says opening the basement door, infront of him is a 5'6 boy with black hair, making sure his uniform is perfect and in place. "Yes Sir. I am ready to finally recieve my name and position." The boy says, spinning on his heels and saluting the man.

"I told you a million times boy, call me James. I am not 'Sir', That was when you were new, now you are 13 and one of the future established body guards of Madam Critals family. That means you'll be my superior soon, I should be calling you Sir." The man says, smiling and patting him on the back. "Now lets go."

They then walk up the stairs of the basement into a large room that looks to be a meeting room. In the room is a stage and a crowd of men wearing black suits, along with 4 people, those people being Madam Crital, her husband, and her 2 daughters.

"Now that everyone is here, let us start the naming ceremony!" Madam crital says as she starts to call up multiple men and women, giving them names and positions as body gaurds. Untill the nameless boy was only standing. "And now... I announce our best and newest part of the family. This boy is a slave I bought 6 years ago, who has now grown into a true man and bodygaurd. Come here boy." Crital says waving him up onto the stage she is standing on. When he gets there she motions for him to kneel infront of her.

"Boy. I shall name you Kazu, A boy with infinite potential and possibility's. Welcome to the family Kazu." Crital said, lifting the boy up and giving him a hug, this was something the boy, now know as Kazu had never felt before. A feeling of actual comfort, and a feeling of affection. Something he longed for.

A family.

"Are you sure your fine Kazu? This your first time doing a very important job, you're protecing the madams children and thats no small task." Jason said, grabbing Kazu by the shoulders and looking him in the eye. "It's fine Jason, I have no reason to worry. I don't think there's a single person in this world who could break through 10 groups of 4 gaurds, 5 specially trained gaurds, and me. That's a herculean task if I've ever seen one." Kazu says, tapping him on the shoulders and walking towards the door of his and Jason gaurds chamber. "I'll see you later Jason."

"Just be careful." Jason says patting him on the back. "I will."

"Hey sis, when's the gaurd coming? wasn't he supposed to be here by now?" One of the Crital Daughters says, looking at the clock. "No, he's probably standing outside our room. You know our mother and how she trains the gaurds." The other one says turning back around to play on her Game console.

*Knock Knock*

Both girls then turn their head towards the door, and then at eachother. "Come on in!" The 1st Daughter says, getting up off the floor and trying to look semi-1. While the older one just continues playing her game.

"Good morning, I am going to be the body gaurd watching over you two. My name is Kazu, I hope I can live up to your expectations." Kazu says stepping inside, closing the door behind him. He looks around the room with one thought on his mind 'How in the world are these the madam's children? I'm sure Crital would have a brakedown looking at this room.'

"Excuse my rudeness, but would it be alright if I could tidy up your room? It would be ride if I made you clean up your room." Kazu says looking towards... The older... the younger twin? "Umm... We don't mind Mr. Kazu, as long as you don't touch the personal stuff, you care sis?" The one not playing games said, looking towards the one playing games. "I don't mind, just don't touch my bed. If you do I'll kick your shins." She says looking towards Kazu, giving him a death stare, acting Kazu raises his hands in defense.

Meanwhile in his mind 'These 2... troublesome. The shy one is Komi Crital, the daughter of one of Critals Japanese male concubine. The other one being Marie Crital, the Madams main husbands daughter, the future head of "Corperation" side of the family. Both have potential to do things but both are lacking heavily. Komi is too shy and easily embaressed, and Marie is too Rash and franctly a Bitch. If Marie wasn't my "Saviors" daughter I would've slaped her already.' Kazu thinks, taking glances at the 2 talling too each other, taking mental notes on what they like.

"Miss Komi, Miss Marie. Lunch is done, do you want it now or later? Or do you want something else entirely." Kazu says looking at the message on his phone. "I don't care." "I'm okay with that.." Both say, Marie caring less about eating and more about playing her game.

'Another thing that needs fixed. She thinks she has no need to eat and drink water untill she wants. Last time she ate was excatly 24 hours ago, she hasn't any water in 5 hours. What was Madam Crital thinking making her the next gead of the company. Fixing this might take awhile.' Kazu thinks continuing to clean the room without talking...

Inside the Crital mansion, a sad day has come. Madam Crital, the owner and starter of Crital industry, and the boss of the Crital Mafia died of old age. This day caused suffering through out the house, even causing grief to her daughters, who actively disliked their mother. But too one man it hit the hardest, Kazu the boy she bought from a human trafficker...

And tommorow was the day of the burial, or... it was, untill Kazu called it off.

"Kazu you idiot, what the fuck is wrong with you! Her death hit you the hardest yet you refuse to bury our mother!?" Mary says trying to slap him, only for Kazu to grab her wrist and slap her instead. "You say that as if you know she'd want one. Your mother never buried any of the gaurds she trained, a Grave is a slab of rock and a waste of money."

"You don't have a choice in the matter! You arn't even her son yet you believe you get to have a choice in how we deal with mothers death!" Mary says throwing her hands in the air. "You're the fucking stupid one here. I've been with her before you were born, stupid damn brat, I know and knew her better than you. In fact why do YOU care, you barely interacted with her, yet you complain that I'm deciding her funeral!" Kazu says yelling back at her. Then Kazu walks past her and opens the door, spiting one last comment towards her "This is why Crital made me the boss of the Mafia. Because you're too nice, Empathy doesn't give you anything. You'll learn this soon." He says, then slaming the door, nearly riping it off the hinges.

"You..... You goddamn idiot. Mother made a mistake buying you." She says before going out the other door into her room.

A Rich fancy looking building with multiple cars and trucks parked outside of it. In the building 2 men are making a deal, not with money, not with drugs, not with animals.

But one with a human.

"Mr. Kazu. I remember when Madam Crital came too buy you off my hands, and now you came too do the same. Like Mother, Like Son." An old man with gray hair says, taping his clip board with his pen. Looking at the man in front of him. "Shut it you old creepy pedophile. Just bring out the girl, and her condition is less than optimal it's a 10% cut." Kazu says taping his ciggarette onto his ash tray

The old man smiles and walks outside, than walks back in with a small girl with dead fish eyes, just looking up at her future master. Not even a shred of emotion in her eyes, like a robot made for the man in front of her. "Old man, what the fuck have you done to this poor girl?" Kazu says with a semi-disgusted face

"The same thing I did too you, this girl just couldn't take it." The old man says with his sadistic face. "Good... Hey old man. Do you know one difference between me and Crital." Kazu says standing up. "I don't know. What would it be?" The old man says, before grasping the strong hands around his neck, gasping and scratching the hands.

"She ruled through respect and intelligence, I rule through strength and fear. An iron fist, and the one thing I hate are scumbags like you. Feel proud, you are the first piece of trash I will burn in this disgusting country. May whatever god you believe in have mercy on your wretched soul." Kazu says, before snapping his old neck like a twig. Then turning towards the girl.

"It's okay little lady, you're just like me. A liar, I know you're pretending to be broken, a trick." Kazu says kneeling in front of the girl. She look up at Kazu with an unchanging exspression, with the only change being her calm and soothing voice. "How did you know? I managed to trick the old man for so long. So how did you look through me?" The girl says, not even trying to disagree.

"Because, I used to be like you, pretending to be broken. Pretending to be a machine, with those same dead fish eyes, with the same attitude. I was even bought from the same old man." Kazu says pulling the girl into a hug, and patting her head. Not knowing what to do the girl just stands there.

"Come on. Lets get you to your new home." Kazu says picking the girl up and resting her head on his shoulder. When he gets into the car he sits the girl on his lap and speaks into a walkie talkie. "You know what to do." Then they drive off, with the building they were in bursting into flames.

"Perfection. That is what some people call my life, but it is quite the opposite. Komi, Mary, I am sorry. I used our family for reasons we were not meant for, I abused your trust and betrayed our family. Yumi, I am sorry for not being a good father, even if you are not my own blood, I still think of you as my own daughter. But I have done everything thought impossible for a human, I have tasted, smelt, heard, felt, and have seen everything a man could want. Except one thing I have yet too face. If you want to find my body, it will be at our old hiding place we used when we were children. I have only 1 sentence left.

Death is inevitable, but so is conquering it."

The audio message from Kazu Crital ended after 7 hours, and was automatically sent to all 3 of the people mentioned.

Hours later the media struck.

---KAZU CRITAL DIED OF SUICIDE AT AGE 45---

A hole where his brain was, a shotgun with an empty shell on the floor.
