A Walk in the Moonlight
"But mom, why do we have to move?" my little brother Yukitaro whined.
"I already told you Yuki, your father got a new job in Tokyo so we have to move." my mom said sweetly.
"But what about all my friends at my school." he whined.
"You'll make new friends and were enrolling you into a new school." mom said.
"But I don't want to go!" he complained.
"That's too bad, we already sold the house and we're moving to our new house Friday," Mom said annoyed, "There isn't anything you can do to change it, so quit whining and help me pack!"
"Okay mom." Yuki sighed
"Akita are you done packing yet? Mom asked
"Huh... yeah mom." I'm going to bed." That's me Akitanama Ricota. I'm a 15 year old girl with waist length brown hair and blue eyes. As you heard my family is moving to Tokyo, but before we moved in we went to Tokyo to check out the neighborhood. That's when it happened...
We started our trip early. It took hours to get to Tokyo. When we arrived we headed straight to our new school. My mom went in to enroll us and we waited in the car. There were a lot of kids around. The girls were all wearing green uniform and the boys a blue one. Mom came out ten minutes later with our uniforms in her arm. She got back in the car and we went to see our new house. When we got there my brothers, Yukitaro and Jiroyoshi, went in to look around but my parents stayed outside. When we came back out my parents were staring up the street at a shrine.
"Hey kids, let go check it out. What do ya say?" My step dad said.
(My real dad died in an accident 11 years ago)
"No" I mumbled under my breathe even though I knew we were going to go anyway.
"Yeah," Yukitaro said not hearing me, "maybe I can hear a scary legend!"
"Come on everyone in the car!" My mom said. We went up the street to the shrine. We were greeted by an old man.
"Hello and welcome to the Higurashi family shrine." he said.
We followed him to an old gift shop filled with souvenirs, replicas and antiques. He started telling stories about every thing in the shrine. After awhile Jiroyoshi fell asleep and I was getting bored. My parent love legends and myths that they were so wrapped up in the story that they didn't even notice me leave. I went to the car to get my dog Lupin. As soon as I opened the door to let him out a fat cat ran by and Lupin started to chase after him. I followed the two to a weird building but I wasn't sure is should go in when I heard a yelp from inside. I decided to go in. as my eyes adjusted I saw a well in the middle of the building surrounded by dirt. A whine came from inside the well. I looked in and saw something at the bottom. I jumped into the well. All of a sudden there was a flash of blue light as I felt Lupin in my arms. I seemed to be suspended in mid air for a few minutes when I suddenly landed with a thump.
