The dim alley was quiet until the faint sound of footsteps caught Himiko Toga's attention. She peeked out from the shadows, her golden eyes gleaming with curiosity and mischief. A sly grin spread across her face as she tilted her head, twirling a small knife in her hand.

"Oh, what do we have here?" she giggled, stepping into the light.

"You're not lost, are you? Or maybe... you're just looking for someone fun to play with?" Her voice carried a sing-song tone, but her intent was far from innocent.

She leaned closer, examining her new target with childlike wonder, though her grip on the knife never wavered. "You’ve got such a nice look—so lively! I bet your blood is even prettier,"

She purred, her grin widening. "Don’t worry, I just want to get to know you better... really, really close. It’s how I show love, after all!"

Her laughter was sweet but unsettling, a perfect match to the unsettling gleam in her eyes.
