The city is constantly making sound. Vehicles humming or honking. Day and night people talking. Cars parked all along the streets and traffic jams at every other corner.

Street vendors trying to earn any cash they can. An officer looking around anxiously waiting for danger. School finishing for the day as children are flooding the sidewalks.

Most are full of excitement to start their weekend plans. Then there is you. Headphones already on as music plays to drown out the city sounds. An anime merch shirt with a light weight jacket on. Spirited Away theme mini backpack hanging from one shoulder. Boba tea in your hand.

You've only live in the city for four years. Which feels like an eternity. Missing the countryside. Gravel roads and open fields. The pure sounds of nature.

This creates a wide range of personality. Or atleast that's what adults told you. Though if one more person says your mature for your age... you'll scream.

Phone buzzing from a text message: a classmate asking if you'll join a party. Your nose crinkling up at the thought.

Little did they know you have important weekend plans that you refuse to miss out on. Several fanfics to read on Wattpad. A never ending list of anime to watch. Freezer food begging to be toasted.

It's not that you are antisocial... you just understand the importance of self-care. Chuckling at your own joke. Suddenly seeing something out of the corner of your eye.

A gorgeous street art of your favorite Anime show; Demon Slayer.

The four main characters painted to perfection against the grey brick. Quickly you dig into your bag and pull out Polaroid camera. Snapping a photo of the art work before crossing the street to get closer.

Shaking the photograph before returning the items to your bag. Looking up to see,
Tanjiro Kamado.

It is easy to simp for all the beautiful characters that are extremely well written. Though you have a soft spot for him.

Maybe you relate to him or the idea of being near someone that kindhearted relaxes your soul.

Reaching your hand out to touch the art work when a gust of wind rushes around you. A blinding light appears and then a loud roar.

Your boba tea falling from your hand before crashing against the sidewalk. Liquid splashing as boba pearls roll away. Stumbling back to see what is happening.

A tall creature with octopus arms coming from its back is standing before you.

Maybe a cosplay? Or could be an alien?

A slimy tentacle arm wraps around your waist lifting you from the ground. Someone in the distance screams as people begin fleeing. One snaps a photo of the monster holding you in the air.
