The Zero Dimension - Forget Me Not

A Normal? Encounter

Whisper POV:
Whisper: Whisper looked on as the Adams residence ate their dinner. He felt something. It wasn't something he could really describe, but it was enough to make him need to do something with it. "Jibanyan, tell Nate that I've decided to go on a walk for a bit if he asks."

Jibanyan: "Where are you going, nya?"

Whisper: "...I'm not too sure, I just need to clear my mind for a while."

Jibanyan: "Whatever you say." Jibanyan shrugged it off as Whisper's usual randomness, much to his dismay.

Whisper: Whisper rolled his eyes and then floated away. Once he exited their house, he could feel it. This feeling wasn't just a feeling. It was an aura. An aura belonging to a Yo~Kai. Whisper looked around, confused. He couldn't see any Yo~Kai that would give off an aura like that. What more, he's surprised that Jibanyan didn't notice it. Or at least, that's what he thought until the door subtly opened, revealing the aforementioned cat Yo~Kai. "So you did notice it."

Jibanyan: "I nyoticed it a little bit after you left. I thought that it was what you were nyan about."

Whisper: "Yes, I'm going to try and find its source. Tell Nate that I might be gone for longer than I thought."

Jibanyan: "Well shouldn't he go too? What if it's anyother bad guy, nyan?"

Whisper: "I doesn't feel powerful enough for that. Plus, they'd probably conceal their aura if that was the case. Every other villain we've faced has done that at least once."

Jibanyan: "Fair enyough. Bye bye, nyow!" Jibanyan waved before closing the door.

Whisper: Whisper waved back, resuming his search. He floated a bit randomly until the aura got stronger; continuing to go that direction afterward. The aura had led him to the riverbank of Uptown Springdale. "So this is where it's coming from..."

???: Someone who was holding a fox mask jolted up at Whisper's voice. They put the mask on their face, their body changing from human skin and clothes to just gray. There was no trace of any of their previous features, just a humanoid body shape. They disappeared within a puff of purple smoke. Whoever they are, they're a Yo~Kai, and they didn't expect to be seen.

Whisper: Whisper looked at bit to the left and also saw another person standing there. They seemed to be a human. They were looking at where the Yo~Kai was and seemed to be sad about them leaving. The aura was gone now, so it was definitely that Yo~Kai that was emitting it. Satisfied with the answer he got, he turned to leave. However, as he did, he heard a voice.

???: "Hey wait little ghost, don't go!"

Whisper: He turned to the source of the voice, which happened to be the human he had seen before.

???: They ran up to Whisper, looking happy that he stayed. "Do you know who that was?"

Whisper: He looked at them more closely. They couldn't be much older than Nate was. He also noticed that they weren't wearing any kind of Yo~Kai Watch. He wondered for a moment how he was able to be seen before the person spoke again.

???: "What's your name little ghost? I'm Kamahura Chisou; it's nice to meet you!"

Whisper: "I'm Whisper, and likewise. ...I'm just merely curious but, how can you see me?"

Kamahura: He tilted his head, clearly confused.

Whisper: "Ah, nevermind that. It was nice to meet you, but I need to get going. You should go home too if you can, it's getting late."

Kamahura: "Home..." He seemed to ponder that for a second before registering what Whisper said just before then. He waved. "Bye bye."

Whisper: He gave a friendly wave before floating back to Nate's home. That aura... just what was it? It wasn't an aura of power, or at least it didn't feel as such. It was difficult for Whisper to describe and he kept thinking about it on his way home and even after, once he had entered the house. Whisper was in intense thought when Nate waved a hand in front of his face, snapping him back to reality.

Nate: "You good Whisper? You've been floating there with a weird expression for a while now."

Whisper: "A-ah, I'm fine, I was just thinking about something I saw earlier."

Nate: "Oh yeah, Jibanyan told me about it. Something about a strong aura you two had felt, right?"

Whisper: "Yes, although, strong isn't exactly the word I'd use..."

Nate: "Well then, what would you call it?"

Whisper: "I'm not sure, but the word that comes to mind every time I think about it..."

Whisper: "It's always a variation of pained..."
