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 .
