Chapter 1.
Rin sat on a small dirt hill on the outskirts of Tokyo staring at the sun going down, studying the beautiful purple and yellow hues. His jet black hair was getting long, gently brushing against his face from the slight breeze. It was getting cold out, and he had no jacket, only a white T shirt, dark blue jeans, and black converse was going to keep him warm tonight.
After it all ended, after the battle was won, he literally didn't know what to do with his life. Where was his purpose now?
Closing his eyes for a second, he sighed and stomped his shoes at the dirt, kicking up some dust. It made him cough, and he waved his hand frantically in attempt to clear the air. He sighed again, the dark of the night and his thoughts the only two things keeping him company.
"Damnit…" He got up swiftly and brushed his jeans and shoes off, "Better find myself a place to sleep tonight." he muttered. He picked up his only possession that lay beside him, his sword.
"Just you and me buddy." Rin looked at it and chuckled softly, then stuck it in its sheath. "No idea where to go…" he looked all around him, he had 3 roads to choose from just past a small field in front of him. He shrugged and decided he would just pick which one when he got to them.
Coming up to the roads he stared at them for a moment, pondering his direction.
"This road looks somewhat promising." He grumbled sarcastically, and he crossed the edge of the field down toward the road he chose. It was just a small bricked road with a typical white fence lining it all the way down the side, and behind those fences looked just ordinary houses.
He looked at the ground the whole way, watching his feet hit the brick, thinking deeply about his brother and how he was doing, where he was, where he had gone to... After the intense battle, Rin and Yukio parted ways for what felt like an eternity.
"I wonder if Yukio even thinks of me." He whispered, and he could feel his lips turn down in a frown, his chest felt tight and heavy. Remembering all the times they had as kids, and imagining Yukio's usual astonished look in kid pictures of them and oversized glasses made his chest ache with missing his brother even more. They had been through so much, and now so far. Rin shook his head, trying to hold back any tears that were forming and tried to focus solely on the sound of his own footsteps hitting the cold bricks.
A loud crash of metal brought Rin out of his thoughts and back into the real world. His head automatically snapped over to his right, seeing a large black cat jumping and stumbling frantically down a small ally way. Small dark red pools lay in the dry dirt, and the cat clumsily bolted the other direction, seeming disoriented.
"What the-?" Rin squinted his eyes for a second, watching the cat blindly try to reach wherever it was going to. His eyes darted to the blood on the ground.
"That poor thing!" He was quick to react, and sped after the cat, clearly seeing it was injured. He couldn't just leave it like that.
He came to the red arches of a shrine, looking up to see cement steps and small little droplets the cat left behind.
"Must've gone this way…Hmmm. Might as well." he shrugged as he bounded up the steps, taking them two at a time.
He got to another red arch, and a cement platform, seeing a giant tree with a small fence around it to his left. Rin scanned the area in search for a large black blur but saw nothing. He sauntered over to yet another small staircase, and sees the cat again.
"I'm probably trespassing but I'm not mean enough to let the cat suffer…" He shook his head at himself "Stupid cat!" he sighed loudly in frustration.
The cat ran into a small hut, and Rin followed. He came upon a stepping ladder, and a boxed in dark well. He looked around seeing no sign of the cat.
"Stupid cat, I was just trying to help you…" he grumbled angrily. Stepping down the ladder, he leaned himself over to see in the well. It was pitch black.
"What the hell? Is there even a bottom?" Rin leaned in closer, now on his tip toes. He felt a soft push against his legs and before he could turn around he was surrounded by darkness.
Flailing his arms in panic he landed on the cold dirt ground with a thud, scraping his palms and hurting his knees a little.
"Ow, damn!" he shouted, "Ugh!" and gripped the hand that hurt the most tightly to his mouth, trying not to whine. Rin's panic had his heart racing and his breathing was heavy. After collecting himself for a few minutes, he looked around at his surroundings. Vines now climbed up the well walls, and it smelled like earthy mud.
"W-….What is this place?"
