IT’S JUST THE TWO OF US ON AN EMPTY ROAD, A CORPSE AND I.
i've become an enemy in the mirror, doesn't it hurt?
Ghosts, spirits, the supernatural. They were all around her, she could feel it. And she did not like feeling their presence but there was nothing she could do. She tightened her fists until the whites of her knuckles showed. She cared naught for the danger, though, instead of the danger of her being exposed for what she was prematurely. She had yet to enter a new town and didn't know what would happen if she were to expose her form here. The world around her was that of an endless whisper, souls that were dead and dying speaking to them, and Chiyoko was just short of covering her ears and cowering in a hole, [had she no pride].
Suddenly, a sound caught her attention, halting her footsteps for a moment just long enough so that she could train in on the source, filtering out the white noise from the winds raging around them, and picking out the nearly quiet footsteps --- the sound of someone approaching. Feeling insecure, she immediately reached for her weapon-- her scythe, in case the creature, human, spirit, or whatever was hostile.
It was at times like these, she hoped that the air around them made her seem almost inhuman [because she definitely was], her white hair flying all around her and contrasting all of her surroundings. Her eyes were a striking red, seeming to pierce the air before her, and very likely to be easily visible to people far away. Her scythe -- well, that was just a questionable weapon in general. Who even walked around with one as a weapon besides a farmer? It was all about those thin knives nowadays, right? With a click of her tongue, she fell silent. Now she'd just await their arrival.
Chiyoko tensed a bit when the light crunching became heavier --- closer. Well, at least they could confirm it was no spirit. Spirits left no footsteps, made no mark on the world.
"Announce yourself" She said to the emptiness before her. Well, for all she knew, she could be speaking to her stupid hallucinating consciousness. Everything was just so weird. The fog was just unhelpful.
Cold definitely muddled with her brain. Frustrating.
