Black Stars-

O.C. P.O.V.

I got off the train and took in the new surroundings. The only thing I could see were newspapers flittering about and people running from the train or to the train. I looked at my phone; it read 11:42 p.m. The train ride over here took longer than I had expected.

I walked up the grimy steps from the underground subway and frowned when raindrops began to fall. Usually I liked the rain, but it was too gloomy and dark to enjoy. By now I would have stopped a taxi, but I liked to walk even if it was in the rain. I've been through worse, so a little rain won't hurt me. I began walking to my sister's apartment and going through my bag as I did. I haven't seen her in a while. I hope she's been okay living in a big city like this, especially since its Ikebukuro.

I pull out my headphones and put them on, turned on my iPod, pulled my hood over my head, and put my hands back into my jacket pockets. I turned a corner and was stopped by a large black man holding a transparent umbrella and handing me a flyer with Russia Sushi written on it.

"Eat sushi. Sushi is good for you." He said in a thick Russian accent.

Don't see that every day. And how could he stand this cold and damp weather? I took off my headphones and took the flyer in his hand. I was a little hungry and being in a dry place would be good for me. I looked up at him. "How good is the sushi?"

In his thick Russian accent he said "It's very good. Trust Simon. It will satisfy your hunger for a traveling tourist." He smiled.

I smiled back. "Alright I'll bite. I hope you're right Simon." With that I walked into the sushi restaurant and placed an order for a meal that included four rolls of sushi, a bowl of noodles, and a dumpling with Ice tea for my drink.

I waited for two minutes until I got my food. Simon said the sushi was good so I tried the sushi first. He was right it did taste good. During my meal a girl, wearing all black, and a boy, with a blue sweater, came up to me and observed me closely. That's unusual.

"Wow, you're so pretty. Like a beautiful heroin in a manga that teams up with the main character dude and helps him fight evil but also falls in love with him." The boy said.

I looked at him, a little confused. "Um, are you talking to me?"

"Of course we're talking to you!" the girl said. "You're new here right? I'm right aren't I? You look like you're new around here. Oh you look so cool. You have to be from Harajuku right?"

I smiled and looked at her, she was good. "Right, I just came here today. Wow you're good are you like a know all wise person who knows everything like in a beginning of an opening manga where the main character needs help with a huge emergency?" I played along with them, but truth is I'm an Otaku, and these two knew what they were talking about.

"Oh wow I knew it! My name is…" the girl stopped and when a man, with a black beanie and dark blue jacket, came up to her.

From over her he said "Stop annoying people. You'll probably scare her off, like you do with everybody."

The girl put on a pout "But she's super cool. She's like a kitsune! Right Walker?"

The boy replied "Right! You're exactly like a kitsune, very magical looking and having an increased amount of wisdom!"

"How do you know I'm like that? We just met." I stated in a somewhat teasing tone.

"Oh I'm sorry we haven't introduced ourselves, since we were so rudely interrupted!" she looked up at the man and then turned back to me. "but it builds up suspense like in a manga when you find out a secret and then it stops until the next manga comes out so you can understand the secret! Oh my name is Erika Karisawa and this here is…"

"I'm Walker Yumasaki!" the boy said. "And this guy here is Kyohei Kadota!" He pointed at the man behind them.

Erika leaned in and whispered into my ear "Or you can call him Dota-chin. Whichever one works for you." She pulled back in a giggle and stood up straight again.

Either Erika wasn't good at whispering or Kyohei just has heightened hearing because he had and irritated expression on his face.

"I told you not to call me that!" he stated and looked down towards Erika.

Erika just smiled like she couldn't hear anything he was saying. That's nice.

Kyohei looked back up and face me "So what's your name Kitsune girl?"

Big thanks to Crownless King for helping me edit it. Go visit the stories CK is writing. They're very good! =)

And thanks to the comments/reviews I finally realized I made a HUGE mistake in the Ikebukuro and Tokyo thing. Sorry. I'm not good in my geography or whatever. Be nice it's my first story.
