A/N: OH! Everyone, a little thing!
I changed the title to "Tengoku no Honshitsu" meaning "Essence of Heaven", okay? .

Hi there!
This is my first fanfic, and I know it's an OC story but I hope nothing is too Mary-Sue...I try to keep the characters in character, and my OC not too sue...I know I don't write great, but I'm writing this for fun.

Please read and enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh, and I never will. I sure wish I did!! I only own my OC, Haya.
I'm too lazy to put one in every chapter so this applies to them all!

Prologue

Dark.

She tries to open her eyes but is faced with pain. They eat away at her very existence, the shadows to.

Clawing, scraping, skin peeling...

And the holes from where they used to be, bleeding, bruised, congealing.

Her eyes snap open, flashing violet.

Scared.

She tries to move, to escape, to hide. Once more she fails. She couldn't anyway. The chains were too strong; holding her frail figure in place; preventing her from moving. She sighs, though it falls to dead ears. She closes her purple, orb-like eyes once more.

Has she given up?

She didn't even know who she was or what she had done, never mind where she was. All she knew was she was being punished and there was no way out.

None at all.

She clenches her fists. The pallid skin of them was coated in red once more. The mirror shards, piercing.

And she wishes for love.

Care.

But it's not like she'll get it here. Hopeless.

Alone.

Then...

A voice.

Breaking the silence.

"Come here."

She opens those sad eyes once more, wondering where the source of the voice is.

It was a soft voice. Kind. Sweet. Caring. Loving.

"Who are you waiting for?"

She's listening to the voice from across the horizon.

It calms her, but who is it?

Who would speak to her?

Why are they speaking to her?

"Come here."

She falls, crashing down through the boundaries of heaven and earth.

A/N: I hope that wasn't awful!

Please R&R!
