Hey everybody! Sorry I didn't update since like forever.

But, I have decided to rewrite the story.

Before I begin I want to thank everybody who reviewed the original Why ME!

Hope you enjoy it.

Life is So Unfair!

Two people lie there in a pool of blood, motionless. A little girl sits beside these two bodies and weeps. She does not believe what is front of her; she only wished it is a bad dream. But the more she looks at the motionless bodies, the more she realizes: this is a bad dream that she can't wake up from. This is reality. This is life. Her dad once said 'You cry as much as you laugh in life,' she now realizes how much he was right and weeps even more. Her mom once said 'That may be true, but after you pass the challenge, you laugh as much as you cried.' The little girl always believed in that, but told her parents 'Life is like an obstacle course, you go through challenges to get prizes.' As she weeps her heart out, she wonders: what prize would life give her, if she passed this dilemma?

There was chaos everywhere. Even though, people were now scattering everywhere and screaming, the little girl felt like she was alone in some other world. She could not hear anything, but she could see everything. Some young man called the police and asked people to form a circle around the two bodies. It took only five minutes for the police to arrive and star t investigating the scene. The young man requested to not move the child; she had been weeping for a long time, it didn't feel right.

"Alright, we won't move her, for now, but I need you to tell me what you saw." the officer agreed.

"Okay, I saw whole thing, but I don't know who did it." The young man said.

"What exactly did you see?" the police man probed.

"Well, I know they came to get that little girl a birthday cake. They finally had enough money to buy one. They were talking to me, while the child when to pick out a cake. Then, all of a sudden… I heard two things fly by with a whistling-type of sound. Then…" the man could not continue.

"Then…what happened then?" the police man asked now interested.

"Then… the next thing I knew, the two were on the floor, in a pool of bright red blood, with a hole through each of their skulls. The little girl, then, came running to them hoping they were okay. I guess, she still can't believe that they're gone even after 3 hours after the incident." The young man looked at the weeping girl with pity-filled eyes.

"Wait! 3 HOURS after the incident!?" Now the police man did the same thing the man did. "Why didn't you call us 3 hours ago? Or tell the girl they were dead?" he continued his questioning.

"I didn't tell her because I can't. Officer, today is her birthday and to tell the girl that she is probably an orphan; it's just not right for me to tell her that. I trust you can." The man was being honest.

"We'll tell her….we'll have too. Why didn't you call us?" the police man reassured him and was looking for an answer.

"Right afterwards, there was chaos. I tried to protect then, but I was pushed and the only things I could see and hear was a blur and loud sounds. When I saw the little girl, besides a shop, I tried to get to the shop and was successful. I called the police right away and told everybody to make a circle around the three of them, even though, I knew the other two were dead, I had to save the girl from being trampled to death." The man was finished with his story.

"Is there anybody else hurt?" the police man asked after hearing the "savior" of the girl.

"NO, I'm pretty sure nobody else is hurt," the man said looking around, "and I'm okay too." He reassured the officer and himself.

"Well, thank you for the cooperation, Mr.…." the police man was searching a name.

"Ayako Yamasaki…you can call me Ayako." Ayako shook the officer's hand, smiling.

"Yes. Ayako, thank you for everything." The police man thanked him and headed to tell the little girl the bad news, if she didn't figure it out yet.

Life is incorrigible. It is unfair and unflinching. Why does life have to be so intricate, so illegible? One builds up its spirits, its strengths, and its weakness for this? Fate can be so biased. It feels like life and fate, both, team up to tantalize the mind, body, and soul of someone. Thinking these thoughts, only made the girl weep more.

The police man came over and unwillingly tapped the little girl's shoulder. "Hey there, what's your name?" the police man tried to talk to her. Only tears were the answer for an hour.

An Hour Later:

"My name's Rima, officer." She finally answered the question.

"If you could, what relationship you have with these people?" the police man was trying to get information and watching not to alarm her.

"They were my parents…" Rima said with tears forming in her eyes. "Officer, you're a grown up, why is life so unfair?"

"I wish I knew… Rima, look we have to ask you some questions about your family… if you could help us out, please." The police man was very cautious. Rima nodded. The officer watched as she took off her bracelet and gave it to him. He took it.

"What's this, Rima?" he asked examining it.

"My mom said: it would protect our family from danger if I wore it, but I don't have a family… anymore… so you can keep it and return it to me after the investigation is over." Rima said sadly. "This will answer all your questions; whatever I don't know… it doesn't know."

"It will? ....Was your father in debt?" the police officer tested the device.

"Yes" it replied.

"Is this true?" the officer wanted it to be clear.

"Yes, for our house, dad borrowed money from the bank." Rima said. "Whatever it says about me is true." Rima closed her eyes.

"Thank you…. I will take care of this bracelet. … Rima, you will be in a foster home for now, okay?" the officer was grateful to have the bracelet.

"Okay" the bracelet replied.

"Rima….how old are you?" the police man was curious. Rima opened her eyes.

"9 years old, sir." Rima spoke before the bracelet could.

"9 years old" it answered. The police man was a little amused by the bracelet, when it said the exact same thing except slower. The police man smiled as he walked to the others, asking the bracelet questions. (A/N: weirdo!) Rima closed her eyes.

"Mom…Dad, I will stay strong and survive." Rima smiled and dozed off while leaning on a wall nearby.

Hey! So how was it?
