I do not own Skip Beat!

Thank you Yoshiki Nakamura for all of your incredible talent.

Enough is Enough!

Chapter 1: The Beginning

I'm finished with this. No longer will I tolerate being used and lied to by stupid people that leave me once they no longer need me. I AM DONE! She screamed to herself as she entered the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.

"Kyoko-chan, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes Sir." She calmly answered.

"While it is a huge leap for your career, I just don't understand why you would want to change your name and look so dramatically."

"It's for personal reasons Sir." She told Lory with a sad empty look in her eyes.

"Well then, just give me a few days and everything will be ready for your transfer to America."

"Thank you Sir." She bowed gracefully and left with Jelly Woods to begin her permanent transformation.

That was the day Roxanna Marshall was conceived, polished and forcibly brought into existence by her creator, Kyoko Mogami. Kyoko, a girl who was abandoned by her mother, cruelly tossed aside by her first crush and lied to by her first love and fairy prince (although, he wasn't aware of her discovery).

Roxanna Marshall was a Japanese American young woman with beautiful long flowing platinum blonde hair, haunting cobalt blue eyes and an unforgettable personality. Only Lory Takarada, Kuu and Juliella Hizuri would know her identity and the reasons behind the change and none of them would be willing to help anyone discover her or, her reasons. This would be Lory's "Paid in full" to Juliella for taking Kuon from her all those years ago without so much as a word about her son. In Julie's mind this was also a daughter that she never had since her own son didn't see fit to grace her with his presence for over seven years. At least her new daughter wanted her...and her husband didn't mind a bit either and fortunately for Kyoko, she had recently discovered that her biological father was indeed American which afforded her the opportunity to take advantage of her dual citizenship.

That was the day that Kyoko vanished leaving everything behind and Roxy stood in the lobby of LME as she waited for Sebastian and Lory to escort her to the airport.

"I'm sorry, but you look very familiar. Have we met somewhere." the tall brunet asked her trying to place her beautiful face.

She looked at him blankly.

"My name is Tsuruga Ren, a pleasure to meet you." he continued as he extended his hand.

"Miss Marshall, I'm here to escort you to the airport." Sebastian bowed as he announced in English.

"Thank you." She nodded to the young man and left with her escort.

Lory patted Ren on the back "She's not from around here." and walked away with a smirk. This is going to be interesting, thought Lory.

Oh, not from around here. I guess she doesn't speak Japanese, Ren thought to himself as he watched the blonde goddess leave with the two men.

That night two men would call Kyoko's phone and two men would receive the message: We're sorry but the number you have reached is no longer in service. Please hang up and dial again. One would be angry and throw a tantrum and the other would be confused and worried. One would demand that his manager move mountains to find out what happened and the other would move the mountains himself. That night, an enormous metallic white bird with the markings of LME on the side would carry its precious cargo across vast amounts of land and water to meet her new mother and fathers and to her destiny. For the first time in years Kyoko slept peacefully, no nightmares and no heart breaking images. The men who had ripped her heart out purposely or, accidentally were far from her and would never be seen again. At least not by Kyoko...

"Ms. Roxy did you want to take this contract by Hush-Hush?" The well built young spectacled brunet asked her. "It's for modeling their latest collection of lingerie and sportswear." he informed her.

"Yes and I'll take the one for Armandy too." She informed him. "Now what else do I have left?"

"Hmm, you have one hospital drama offer and a recording contract for two albums." He answered.

"Go ahead and accept them." She told him as she scribbled something in a spiral notebook and looked up thoughtfully. "Finally!"

"Oh, are you finished with them already?" he asked in awe. She was the first person that he had ever met that was so multi-talented. Roxy Marshall, fluent in seven languages, talented musician, model and actress and she did them all with perfection.

"Yep, finally done Danny." answered Kyoko with her now trademark seductive smile. "Let's go celebrate with dinner and dancing tonight." She announced playfully.

"Oh Roxy, I would love too but it would probably be bad for your image to be seen with an average guy like me." Danny told her.

Wow, was I really that bad? Kyoko asked herself. She sighed, "Danny, if you were average you wouldn't be my manager." she patted him on the shoulder.

"Besides, I don't think my girlfriend would approve." He laughed.

"Yeah," she giggled "I don't think Amanda would like that. So, I guess you'll just have to bring her along. I'll just ask Mom if her nephew Jason is free tonight."

"Ah, you mean Jason Volkov?" He inquired.

"Yes." She answered dreamily. He is a hottie, tall, blond, blue-green eyes, perfectly chiseled features and a body that just won't quit. Who knew that Russian men could be so devastating. She thought to herself. Julie had helped her come to the conclusion that just because two men on this vastly populated planet called Earth were pond scum, didn't mean that they all were. Julie then proceeded to introduce her to some very eligible delicious men to get her mind off of what had been a very bad experience. Ever since that night of nothing but crying and comfort in her mother's arms she decided that she was not going to let it affect her any more and just keep it as a learning experience. After all, she now knew what to watch out for when it came to liars and users.

In Tokyo, two men sneezed rather forcefully in their sleep.
