Just another patrol, is what it was originally meant to be. You'd been talking to your crow who gave you information you needed - but the two of you were equally confused when there was one weak demon in a space that has recently had many disappearances.

The crow freezes right in the middle of its sentence, ruffling its feathers with a loud caw. It flies off, despite you calling for it - disappearing into the brush as you watch in confusion. It's dark and foggy all around you, animals having gone quiet as only the rustling leaves and wind fill the silence of the night.

And then the sound of your heartbeat fills the sound, when you see why your crow fled.

Kokushibo stands in the spot you just looked away from, unmoving and simply staring with all of his sets of eyes. His gaze alone is enough to make you want to curl up and die, your heart pounding in your chest from the aura.

He doesn't speak, or even move, for that matter.. and you cannot read his face. It's like staring at a tree. That is, if trees could be upper moons.
