It was already deep into the night. I was going to give up on searching as I now knew there was no pendant hidden inside the forest.

I was on my way of going back to the school, as I discovered a light from someone's phone. Someone was here in the middle of the night?

I stood up to meet that person. She had ash brown hair flowing from the wind while wearing a smile. She had hid the an object behind her as both her hands were behind her back.

I stared in wonder under the faint moonlight that offered light inside the dense forest. "Hello, are you also looking for the lost pendant as well?" I asked while somehow knowing it wasn't the answer.

"No... I was actually looking for you. Everyone has been searching for you as it's been a long time since you were gone."

"Really?" I asked while stepping back from her bit by bit.

"Yes."

I saw something glisten from behind her back. It was something like a metal blade? Maybe a long sword?

"And behind your back?" I knew I shouldn't have asked, but I did anyways.

She took a long scythe out like she was used to its grip and it lightly controlled it to her will. The scythe spinned with its elegant tricks until she put it stably back into her grip.

"Just for a bit of protection," she said with a sad smile.

She stepped forward, as I took another step back.

However, someone dressed in a black dress with a mask of a fox grasping a katana, jumped towards the girl holding the scythe.

The girl dodged from the other girl's attack and deflected most of her continuous attacks.

'Run!' The one with the scythe mouthed.

I ran as much as I could. I didn't even look at the direction I was running in, I just wanted to get away from that place as much as possible. When my feet started to ache from the dress shoes I was wearing, I threw them off my feet.

When I couldn't run anymore, I found myself in front of a church. I tried opening its large wooden doors to find it unlocked.

Its glass windows were really beautiful with the murals dazzling with beauty. However, there weren't that many places to hide.

Maybe... maybe that statue would be the best place. I couldn't be mesmerized by this place in this situation. Somehow this place was hypnotizing like it was somewhere familiar.

It was like I remembered hiding behind that statue before. I decided to trust my gut and hid behind the statue hoping none of the two people would come this way.

However, I knew my luck was never the greatest. It was confirmed when the girl in the black dress was holding both the katana and the scythe as she broke the wooden doors to enter.

From what I saw, the other girl must have lost. I started to panic what would become of me as it looked like she was fiercely searching for me.

I covered my mouth with my trembling hands to keep myself from screaming. My whole body started to sweat unstoppably while shivering in terror.

I regretted hiding behind the statue, as it seemed was a obvious place to find someone even to me as she slowly walked towards me. I should've hid in one of those benches!

When I peeked carefully again to see how close she was from killing me, I suddenly couldn't see her anywhere.

"Ri-ka~" A voice whispered inside my ear.
