Y/n, Kanao and Shinobu arrived too the village after a few hours of running. "Since the sun is still up the demon is unlikely to do anything for now observe and question the townspeople for information." The small girl said with a faint smile on her face.

 Over the years Y/n noticed that her older sister, Shinobu slowly stopped acting like herself but more like their older sister Kanae.

 "Got it," Y/n said with a thumbs up and a smile, while Kanao only nodded in response. The three girls separated observing and questioning the townspeople, well that was if you were able to find someone every time Y/n tried to start a conversation with someone they would ignore her or shriek in fear and run away.

 Y/n was hopping roof to roof until she finally found someone, a couple, a man that looks to be in his forties with a beautiful woman clung onto his arm.

 Y/n jumped down from the roofs proceeding to approach the two "Excuse me!" Y/n said in a calm tone, the couple turned their heads showing a surprised but fearful expression "What are you doing out here, especially alone it's dangerous, don't you know about all the people going missing here girl" the man said in a soft but harsh tone 

"It's getting dark out where are your parents, head home before you get taken too" the female spoke up speaking in a sympathetic tone. 

Y/n sighed, "I'm actually here because of that, could you please tell me what you know." Y/n said in an awkward voice fidgeting with her fingers watching the man's facial expression change to anger and fear  "We're leaving!" 

the man said in a harsh tone, starting to drag his wife, the female beside him only stared into Y/n's eyes, "we should tell her" she said turning to her husband looking at him with soft eyes. 

"What's the point, she'll just get herself killed and drag us down with her!" the man yelled into his wife's face. She only stared at him with soft sympathetic eyes, until the husband finally caved "We'll tell her what we know" the man hesitantly spoke, motioning Y/n to follow them. 

After a few minutes of walking the three arrived at the couple's home. The three sat in the couple's bedroom drinking tea the wife had made. "This beast lurks in the shadows," the man said breaking the silence

 "All of the incidents happen during the night, I had witnessed my mother being dragged into the forest" the man finished speaking looking down at the floor. "Did you see what took, her what'd this 'beast' look like, what form did it take?!"

 Y/n said stuttering with a loud tone, "She was taken by the shadows" the man spoke in a soft tone but soon escalating to a harsh nasty tone "the shadows took my mother, she was so kind and generous, she didn't deserve it, I did nothing but listen to her screams!" he started to scream at Y/n, shocking both his wife and you.

 His wife was immediately at his side stroking his hair trying to calm him. "I think it's time for you to leave" she spoke up, Y/n nodded in agreement bowing to the two "Thank you for your help," Y/n said in a soft tone starting to walk toward the sliding door. "Please put an end to this hell" the wife yelled in a soft generous tone; Y/n nodded giving her a reassuring smile "I will".
