You wandered aimlessly, trying to lose track of the mirrors relentlessly appearing near you. Whatever fueled you wasn't adrenaline, it was paranoia.
Darkness enveloped you as your breaths grew sloppier, unsure of how far you'd ran.
Who was that woma-
Bits and pieces of memories came flooding in. You remembered the first conversation you had with the strange woman in the white kimono.
"I am you. "
"You are me...?"
"When the man in the alleyway touched you, he tried to manipulate your cursed energy. But because you're a late bloomer, how your body reacted... was different."
"That's why I was formed instead, to protect you in some way," She explained, grazing your cheeks with her crimson painted nails.
"Are you why I'm losing my memories?"
She simply smiled,
"You're not losing your memories. They're just tucked away in this innate domain. Once you're strong enough to control the domain, you'll be able to regain them. You need to be as strong as me. To be my balance."

You gritted your teeth, sweat trickling down your forehead. Memories were rushing in, your own thoughts starting to conflict yourself. You stopped, turning around.
"Akane, are you there?" Only silence filled the domain.
The cursed spirit was still inside of you, deep asleep in her slumber. Despite not needing any sleep, Akane still did so to pass time. However, since you arrived earlier than usual, she wasn't awake.
To be as strong as her?
You glanced at your burnt hands, cringing at the sight. Your obsession to be strong could only be overwhelmed by being as strong as you wanted to be.
