OK. Lets give this another shot, shall we? I'm still a little nervous about submitting my fully polishedwork, so I'm just taking baby steps. I can't believe how nervous this makes me.. I hope my friends see it and go nuts, though. I can only submit in this one crappy format so It makes me pretty mad….

The sky was a deep shade of navy, only kept from black by the brightness of the moon. It wasn't a full moon, to be honest, but it was getting close. Crickets chirped restlessly under the stars, playing a soothing melody for anyone who was there to hear it, and a few thin clouds misted over the night sky.
The tanuki sighed in contentment, leaning against the open frame of her bedroom shouji. She had her legs bunched up in front of her in such a way that if she had needed a place to rest her chin, she'd only have to shift her position very slightly. Her eyes shown brightly with a peaceful awe inspired by the nightly song, and she soon found herself humming a soft harmony of her own. Though it was rather late in the evening and she had already been in bed for some time, the tanuki found herself teeming with a sort of quiet restlessness, and though it was early August, the nights were still quite warm and comfortable. In that light, Kaoru had succumb to her sleeplessness and opened the door to let in the night air.
"Tomorrow should be…..quite the
day…." She mused softly to herself, standing and sliding the door
closed again, shutting away the crisp night
air
