Aika wandered the woods at night, to the recent suggestion of her grandmother who had just finished talking to her on the phone. Aika missed her grandmothers guidance, her grandmother had tried her best in teaching Aika how to unveil some of the secrets her Kitsune heritage held. Yet, since being away from her there waasan't much she could do to teach Aika at such a distance. The only thing Her grandmother could offer her was words of advice.
Or rather, a strange command by the elder Kitsune. Aika was telling her about how she had felt this strange pull to the woods. Her grandmother suggested that she travel back there and look around, let her sense's lead her. Perhaps she would find her answer once more in the woods.
Aika had this brilliant idea, to go at night! To just slip out and walk there, it'd be nice and relaxing, a fresh get away from the new house that had not been completely settled in. It would be fun.
And for the most part, it was. Aika liked the woods, though she never knew if it was exactly a Kitsune thing or not. She walked around, exploring it blindly, trying to follow her grandmothers advice but becoming more and more frustrated as she could see nothing or feel anything different. She had no idea where she was at this point and honestly? That pull she was supposed to use to lead her to whatever she was supposed to find? It wasn't there. That is, unless she was supposed to be in the middle of nowhere. She let out a frustrated huff covering her face in her hands as she leaned her forehead onto a nearby tree. "You suck at this."
Then she heard something. A rustle of leaves. Her head perked up, her eyes scanning her surroundings but not seeing much in the darkness. It's nothing. She thought to herself It's just some bird, or rabbit, maybe it's a doe? Yeah, a cute little doe just curious to see who you are and what you are doing....or it could be a bear. Her long white hair was pulled back, half up and half down look. She never had been a fan of putting her hair up, it was too much work.
Silence filled her ears, she was safe, right? She let out a small sigh, she had been worried for nothing, it was probably just the wind or- she heard a twig snap, whipping around to the direction. "Hello...?" She called out hesitantly. Yeah Aika, the boogey man is just going to respond to that, good going!" She meantally chided herself. She stepped back slowly, bumping into something behind her. A tree maybe? But...a tree wasn't warm like this, an tree's also didn't wear shoes, did they? She let in a gasp, turning around, trying to backpedal from the stranger, her heel catching a tree root, the girl going down with a yelp.
