It was pretty dark out by the time Yuzuki and I enter the woods. Looking around, I spot our next victim. Smirking I turn my head to Yuzuki, "I spotted our prey, get ready to kill...Black...Witch." I disappear into the woods as Yuzuki waits for her moment to shine. While with me, I sneak around the victim, analyzing her, studying her....alright I know it's creepy but I kill so it's part of my damn job. Sneaking up closer to her I twirl around my emeici, my thirst for death increasing by the minute. Just as I'm about to reach her, my foot steps on a twig, cringing at the snap it makes I look up. The girl was looking right at me, her eyes wide as fear appears on her face. Silently cursing at my mistake I walk out, a dangerous, yet mischievous look on my face. Tilting my head I let out a small chuckle, "How about you just lay down and let me kill you?" The girl trembles as she runs away, making my smirk wider. "Wrong way my lovely prey."

I follow the girl as she desperately tries to escape me, unaware of Yuzuki who's hiding right in front of her. I get closer as I twirl my emeici, the adrenaline pumping through my veins, the bloodlust spiking through me, causing me to become crazed on the image of her bleeding corpse. I only laugh as the girl trips on a tree root, falling down hard. The girl backs away from me as I slow down to a saunter. "P-please don't kill me!" "What a cliche line, can't you come up with something a little more original?" I step on the girl's foot, stopping her from backing away. The girl only cries harder as I kneel in front of her, showing her my emeici. "Aw, poor baby girl crying. Don't worry I won't kill you." The girl looks at me, hope gleaming in her eyes. "Y-you're not?" "Of course not, after all...you're not my prey to kill." Looking up towards Yuzuki, the girl turns to follow my gaze. The girl's eyes widen as she's about to scream. But before she could, Yuzuki brought her fan down, slicing into the girl's neck. The girl wraps her hands around her neck in an effort to stop the bleeding, only to die a minute later. Licking my lips I look up at Yuzuki, satisfaction growing. "Well done, I must say that was very entertaining." Yuzuki only nods as I get up.

Suddenly we both hear another scream out in the distance. Both of us look at each other, curious at what caused the person to scream. "Want to check it out?" Yuzuki nods as we both run in the direction where the scream came from. Once we reach our destination we see a mutilated corpse, the victim was male, but everything else was hard to distinguish. Yuzuki walks up to the body and inspects it. "There's another killer here." Yuzuki then gets tackled by a girl with brown hair, wearing a pink dress with a black x around her waist. Readying my emeici I run towards the girl, ready to stab her in the eye. Only to freeze as I recognize who it was. "Thorn?"
