A crimson droplet hung suspended in the air, its descent an agonizingly slow ballet. And then, in a sudden burst of motion, the droplet shattered upon impact, sending a vivid spray of scarlet across the sterile floor.
Kaito's chest heaved with exertion, each breath a struggle against the weight of fatigue. His hand, slick with sweat and trembling with effort, cradled a wound that seeped scarlet rivulets.
As he gasped for air, crimson droplets cascaded from his trembling fingers.
Kaito(crackling, venomous fury): I can't believe this happened...!! I will kill you, Kill you....
His eyes bore into his adversary with a steely resolve.
Kaito: I swear by it!!!!!!!!!!!
(12 Hours Ago)
Kaito is a tall and lean 17 years old young man with a well-defined, athletic build. He has raven-black hair that falls just above his shoulders in a messy, unkempt style. His eyes are a deep shade of azure blue. His complexion is fair, with a few faint freckles scattered across his cheeks. Kaito sports a casual and comfortable ensemble. He is wearing a blue hoodie made from a lightweight, breathable fabric. Beneath the hoodie, he wears a plain black T-shirt. He pairs this with dark-blue jeans and comfortable sneakers
Kaito strolled along the path to school,
Kaito: Well, this is intriguing...
His gaze lifting to the sky above. His eyes widened as a monstrous figure soared overhead, a stark reminder of the otherworldly presence that seemed to shadow his every step.
Kaito: ...These guys don't quit, huh... (I've been able to see things since I was a kid... don't know why... friends I play with and now still here with me)
Across the road, another spectral figure materialized, its ethereal form casting an eerie glow against the morning light. Kaito's brow furrowed as he watched, a gnawing suspicion gnawing at the edges of his consciousness
Kaito: (But I don't think people can see it, so I guess it's my imagination).
Kaito closes his eyes
A voice echoing his name from. a distance "Kaito......"
Kaito(opens his eyes): Sigh... (So I'm the only one that can see them...)
He begins to walk to the creature.
With each step forward, Kaito closed the distance between himself and the mysterious being, his heart pounding in his chest.
The voice at a closer range calling his name "Kaitooo..........!!"
A spark of curiosity ignited within his soul, urging him to reach out, his hand trembling with uncertainty
Kaito: (Are they really my imagination??...)
The voice closer yells with annoyance "KAITOOO!!"
Kaito: Whoa... (turns back) Sorry, Misuki!
(This childhood friend, Misuki possesses long, flowing onyx-black hair, which contrasts strikingly with her sapphire eyes,Her pale, porcelain skin completes her otherworldly appearance. She typically wears a short, puffy dress with a flared skirt. The dress features a unique design with swirling patterns of dark purple, accentuated by her choice of black ankle boots)
Kaito(chuckles): Lost in thought... (Moves his gaze towards the creature)
Misuki(puffed cheeks): Noticed! Been calling you since, why're you still here? School starts in 10 minutes
Kaito: 10 minutes??!!!! Well, it'll take me at least 30 to get there... (sigh) Guess I'm late...
Misuki: Ugh, you're hopeless... c'mon, let's go.
Kaito: (She can't see it) Sure, better being late, I guess.
(They both continue down the path to school)
