The moon was drawing high in the sky. Clouds scattered along like an army being blown out of formation. The temperature was dropping by the hour. Kouichi seemed lost in a daze. Dragging his feet along the ground without any energy. Dressed in his usual dark colored keikogi with purple cherry blossoms on the shoulders and back. His hakama matching with no purple. His katana and wakizashi set at his left hip. Why he was at this lake confused even him. He was looking for someone. A hunt in a sense. "I could swear it was around here..."
"Hey! Dark Path! You here?!" He yelled, his face distorted with the frustration of trying to remember the name. Yet when he could feel the cold water on his toes, he froze. Why was he even hunting this girl down like she was a friend who disappeared. A growl escaping his lips. It wasn't like they had agreed to meet. He might have even had to wrong location.
His nostrils flared, as he inhaled deeply. Recomposing himself back to his smirking self. His eyes opening as he began to snicker. The electric blue hues seemed bare. Lacking the spark of life. Then it clicked. He remembered the name that dark path claimed as her own. "Kalika!"
