꧁Miyako's POV

"Sweet"

'Something smells..........sweet.'

My body drifted in the darkness that protrudes my mind in sleep. Drifting for hours on end with no purpose.

"What is this smell?" -Sniff, sniff.

'Like honey melted atop warm, crispy bread, except better. Is that accurate? Is that what this sort of sweet would smell like to humans?'

Whatever it is, it's calling to me.

I have to wake up.....

.....And see what it is......

Coffee brown eyes opened slowly to gaze lazily at the ceiling. Darkness encased the room, leaving not a trace of light to intrude the girl's chambers.

'Where am I?" wondered the girl as she sat up in her bed, drowsiness evident in her eyes.

'Oh yeah, my apartment... of course...Her clothes from the day before lay haphazardly on the floor, taken off in haste and not properly stored in the bin. The blood staining them crisp and dried.

Her tired eyes drifted left to peer at the kitchen and living space around the room. "This is my home," she stated aloud to no one in particular. She stood and walked to her bathroom, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and meeting a familiar pair of chocolate eyes. Her hair was messily strewn over the right side of her face, but she made no move to adjust it. Yet. 

She made to shower up and dress, leaving her apartment in its same state of disarray. Clothes still strewn on the floor of the room with the adjoining living space, a complete opposite of her room. 

'Albeit, a home located in one of the most dangerous cities around, but a home all the same......'

.....

"Tokyo."

Walking casually down the sidewalk of the 20th ward of Tokyo, Miyako surveyed her surroundings in search of a grocery store.

'You see, the refrigerator was empty and there needed to be food in it at all costs. I need food to survive after all, right?'

Entering a small market, I picked up a basket before heading off into the bakery department. I made sure to swipe a few healthy foods on the way. There were all sorts of cakes and sweets that instantly made my mouth water. Making sure to buy only what I can afford, I piled all kinds of treats into the basket like cakes, cupcakes, croissants, brownies, candies, and let's not forget pockys!! 

In the end of my goodie food shopping spree (I refuse to call it junk food), I realised that I only had a few vegetable trays with me among my mountain of goodies, which made me go a few hundred yen over budget.

Hmm.

Healthy?

Or Unhealthy?

Sweet?

Or yucky?

So I did the thing any sensible girl would do. I put the vegetable trays back and payed for the goodies. And it was totally worth it.

I was on my way back home singing "Eternal Snow" softly to myself  when I saw a boy with white hair and red stitches all over his body walking towards me. He sent a goofy smile my way and stopped me on my pathway home.

You have a pretty voice miss! ~exclaimed the boy as he circled me. My eyes followed him, a survival tactic that I've developed around suspicious-looking people. I continued analyzing him as he rambled on about how I look like an idol, or if I was related to one. 

'Interesting, to have red eyes and white hair. If it weren't for the distinct scent of a human, I would've pegged him off as a vampire. Odd. 

And he's carrying a suitcase. No boy would be carrying a suitcase so casually at his age. He has to be an investigator, which also reinforces my theory that his overall appearance has to have something to do with ghouls, if not, vampires. 

Wow.

They start this young nowadays?

The boy stopped talking all of a sudden and looked at me questionably.

"Huh?" I said dumbfounded. Wow, way to act your age Miyako.

"I said, that's a lot of sweets you got there! Mind if I have some miss? ~ he asked sweetly.

"Yeah, sure. I bought a bunch anyway. Probably won't be able finish it anyway." I said with a  smile as I handed him some candy and a box of cupcakes.

"Thanks missy. You're nice! ~

Right then, his cell phone started ringing so he reached in his pocket to answer it

"Hmm? Really!? Okay! Yeah. Right away!" ~ he quickly hung up.

"Yes! Finally some fun! Sorry miss, gotta go kill some nasty ghouls," he said before running towards the direction I came from.

I'm Suzuya Juuzou! Hope we meet again! ~ he yelled.

'Hmm. What a character.'


꧁Suzuya's POV.

'What an interesting girl! Maybe I'll see her again soon! I can't wait!! ~

More ghouls to play with and a mysterious lady! How can my day get any better! ~

Yummmmm. Cupcakes! ~
