The shrill scream once more filled the air as a young woman ran for her life, something was after her that is all she knew but was to afraid to find out what. But from the sounds it made...it wasn't completely human but had most of its features. Zigging and zagging through the maze of alley ways the young woman found herself at a dead in, the wall to high for her to climb and it was to late to double back for she could hear the "thing" upon her. Slowly she turned around desperately trying to find a way out but already knew that her fate was sealed.
The footsteps became louder, drawing closer...the breathing heavy and rasped from the hunt. She pressed herself against the wall as much as she could hoping that it would swollow her and save her from this fate that was soon to fall upon her. What would happen to her dear mother and grandmother...what about the plants that waited in her apartment, who would care and water them. As silly as it sounded all this was running thorugh her mind. Soon a foot appeared out of the shadows, wearing a japanese style sandel, but the force that the foot let loss left a small crater in the ground...definatly not human. Something long and pointed then emerged from the shadows around its face area, but only this pointed object appeared in the light leaving the reast of the features hidden within the shadows. As a low growl emeited from this "thing" the young woman started to sink to her knees her voice no longer working. A hand then started to reach forward...but this hand had claws on it. Tears started to form in the young womans eyes until something dived down and crashed into the thing.
The woman looked up and saw that now there stood a young man. Long here blowing in the somehow present wind, his heavy coat seemed to defy gravities will as he stood between her and the thing. Here eyes widden when she saw him brush his coat aside and reviled that strapped to his right side was a sword. She could hear the thing getting up and it sounded angery as the young man clinched his fist.
"...Baki..."
Suddenly two blades sprung from his left hand and then his right. The thing then growled but it soundled like it was talking, the women really couldn't tell but the man just seemed to shru his shoulders.
"Hunting down all of you Oni, Yokai, and any other two bit demon is what I do...now this is going to hurt, alot..."
