Rain fell down onto Kiri as it usually did, and today it was not just a shower, but a complete storm. Water poured down from the skies, but there was no thunder, no lightning in this storm, only the rain. The slowly emptying clouds above darkened the sky and the village below, so it had seemed like night all day. Now it truly was night, around midnight to be exact. Down a path in a park, the lamps shined vaguely through the thick downpour, but shined nonetheless. In the wet darkness of the now deserted park, there was a bench, and on that bench sat the raven-haired Hakamashi Raika with Hakamashi Sen hiding Raika's soaked black trenchcoat. Her dark red eyes had a glazed look to them almost, deep in thought as she stared forward silently.
Sen barely stuck her head out of the coat for air and thought angrily, I can't believe it! Hime wanted to go for a walk in this! Of all days to lose her umbrella... T_T But sadly, the poor cat had to put up with it. It wasn't that she was cold, Sen was warm enough in the coat, just that she disliked being wet. And tonight was definitely a wet night.
They stayed like that for a while, just sitting there on that wet bench when Raika looked up at the rainfall with empty eyes. Her black bangs were splayed across the upper half of her face, but she did not care.
A sudden profusion of thoughts raced across the girl's once empty mind, thoughts which she had supressed... Really, what was it that she was doing here? Why is it that she ended up here in particular? What is this helpless feeling overtaking her? And most of all...how long had it been since Ashi had been killed? It didn't seem real at all, how could someone like that die? It was like an impossibilty for Ashi of all people to get killed.
Raika's eyes narrowed slightly, making her look almost...sad as strange as it sounds to describe Raika as sad, Stop dwelling on things like that. Why should the death of Ashi make me like this? People die everyday, one more shouldn't upset me. It's illogical... She suddenly heard the voice of a boy in her head... Forget sad things... Her eyes widened and became empty again. Her mind was now as silent as everything around her.
Raindrops continued to hit the ground.
