"I amJane Misteil, the current head of the Misteil family I am a 2nd year high schooler, and I could say that I have been brought up by the great fox spirit of the kitsune shirine and it's head priest. The forest spirts help me out too..." I recall my life as I space out while prepare my lunch box.
"Oops! I burnet the bread!!", I hurry to take the bread out of the toaster and end up burning my fingers, "Ouch! Why are you doing this to me bread?" I wash the finger under cold water, and using a pair of chopsticks I take out the bread and put another loaf into the toaster.
Being done with cooking my lunch and putting it into the box, I glance over the dark and empty hallways of the mansion while closing the lid of the box and feeling a bit lonely I say to myself,"It looks soo sad today".
Taking out my cell I realise that I will surely be late for school if I don't hurry now. I hurry and slip into my uniform put the box into my bag and rush out of the house activating the security system.
I come across the narrow and beautiful stream as I rush down the hill. While admiring its beauty I jump across it. At about 8m the narrow mountain path divied into two both taking into the city, and of course I take the shorter route through the kitsune shrine, and across the lake and into our school compound.
I get a strange feeling, as if something strange is about to happen,something dangerous.
My thoughts gets interrupted by the good old priest's voice calling out "Jane dear! Are you late again? " as I pass by the main shrine.
"sure am " I reply without stopping.
"be safe dear" he calls out as I pass away.
It was the morning of febuary of 25th.

A few people are in a dark room
A young boy slams the newspaper on the desk and depressed cries out, "again 3 people have been devoured by the lake".
Another red haired woman with a frustated look says, "we have been trying to solve this problem yet we have had no luck"
" perhaps it could be possible that the dissapearance of the devil's household along with the 7 angels, the disturbances in the spirit gates, and the myth might be interconnected"
A figure can be seen cooming in from the door as it speaks.
The atmosphere turns tensed
" we must go and see the Misteil household, if what you are saying is true then we will surely find something there"

"Why is this shrine soo freaking big?" I say as I gasp for air. Running 3km in a hill is too tiring no matter how hard i have been training. I look up expecting people to stare at me, but the scene in front of me was clearly different from what I had expected. The beautiful lakeside which was once crowded with people, lay barren. The beautiful narrow footpath by the lake was now covered with overgrown roots, and the same could be said for all the surrounding houses, light poles and etc. All the fishes and birds were missing. The lake was still beautiful, with crystal cyan water, but the air felt heavy and gloomy.
Something tells me that I shouln't take this route. This dosent seem ok, humans ARE ignorant but this just dosen't feel right. "The heaviness in the air, the tightness in the breeze and-" My heart gets set on fire, when suddenly an alarm starts ringing. "STUPID YOU ARE LATE!!!! ...STU-". I look at the time and realise that I'm late. I don't have time to decide! I gotta run . I close the alarm and I end up taking that route. Wait a sec who on earth even put this werid n crazzy alarm here!? Must be hiro. I swear I'll kill him it's a real freaky alarm.
About 2m on the rootpath suddenly a root much like a snake leaves the path and sets off a fast attack on me. As a reflex I jump up into the air and doge it I thank the hellish traning that I have been through these 8 years. While still on air 5 more roots attack me from all the sides. I take out my knife from under my socks and cut them off. As I again attempt another landing a 6th root grabs me tightly from ankle accompanied by some other and pulls me into the cold waters of 'the lake of hell" or the 1st spirit gate.
The lake sure is angry... I think
