The Wild Kitsune

Prolouge: The beggining

It was a late night in the deep forest. Rain was heavily pouring slapping against the leaves as they dropped. The dirt turning into mud as it became like sludge. It was a nice view from the edge of this cliff with the entire forest down below being visible from here as well as a dim yet large light on the other side representing a town on the other side. Tokuda, a young man who was standing at the edge of this cliff. There was no telling what he would do, surely, he wasn't thinking about....

"h-hello...? I-Is someone there" A faint voice was being heard as Tokuda turned around seeing a figure standing behind him "d-don't move l-let me come over to you" the faint voice spoke again as light wet footsteps were heard getting closer and closer. The figure that came over. It was a woman wearing a cloak covering from her head down to her legs. She was short, so it was no wonder the cloak was able to cover most of her. "what is a person like you doing here...?" her voice even though she was closer her voice was still faint with a high pitch of tone. "you know its dangerous to be out in the forest... e-especially this forest... your lucky I was the one that found you. Would of it been anything else... I'm not to sure if your fate if you met me would stay the same" she was kind and gentle being clear she means no harm without even saying it. "don't worry now that you're with me your safe and I can make sure nothing will hurt you... t-that's saying if you do trust me... I understand if you don't as... well, we only have just spoken for a mere minuet." She seemed to be a bit nervous as she spoke to Tokuda like she was not used to talking to someone like him. Even though she seemed friendly and regular, something was off about her.

"This...rain is cruel...Is it not? The feeling of being cold and wet... does it not bother you" she asked in a concerning tone. The rain continued to get heavier as the time went by "I...have a cottage close by...I don't want to see you getting hurt or cold so...would you care to follow me back?" she asked as she looks at Tokuda waiting for a response. He gives a slow nod to her. "y-you will, Great!" even though she sounded excited her voice was still faint but there was a sense of joy in her.
