This is the finalized pre-writing, every small detail is laid out and has a significant meaning in the book (shhh that might have been a spoiler). This will probably not be a full novel due to the fact that I would have to drag the story on for ages.

Story:

                Without a mother or father, Daichi Etsuo, an intelligent but antisocial high school student, is forced to live with his older sister, Chou. The holiday spirit has spread throughout Japan, but today is a dark day. Daichi has found a letter explaining the disappearance of Chou on her bed after discovering that her bedroom door was open. Without any clues, the police decided that she had committed suicide. Without anyone to care for him, Daichi is forced to live in an orphanage.

                One year later, a girl from a wealthy and powerful family named Akahana Chie was just saved from a group of gang members, belonging to the Dorīmuītā gang, by Eri Choukichi, Daichi's childhood friend, an athlete who has struggled through school his entire life. While investigating the gang's hideout, police have found important clues as to the mystery behind Chou's disappearance and even a possibility that she may even be dead. In hopes to repay Eri for rescuing her, Akahana has placed herself in his debt. Unwilling to give up on his sister, Diachi asks Eri for support. To remove Akahana’s debt, Eri has asked her to give Daichi all of the police records concerning his sister and a place to stay. Without any other leads, Diachi must research the possibility of a relation between his sister and the Dorīmuītā.
