Chapter 1: When Lights Go Out
"Shit!" the man driving the unhurt car exclaimed. "Oh, shit! Oh, shit! Oh, shit!"
He got off quickly from his car and ran to the other vehicle which had crashed to the tree.
He went to the door of the deformed vehicle and saw an unconscious man, with his head on the steering wheel and blood trickling down his forehead.
I hope he's alive... he silently prayed.
He opened the door forcefully, and carefully got the unconscious man out of the wreck. He walked a few steps away from it, before laying the man on the pavement to check his pulse.
I'm glad he's alive, he silently told himself.
"Hang on, you're going to be okay."
As if hearing the statement, the injured man's fingers twitched and moved a little.
Good. He's moving. Relief washed over the worry-stricken man.
As his fingers twitched, an object rolled out from his hand. The object that he'd been holding on so dearly… The object that almost cost his life… It was a ring.

What's taking him so long? Sakuragi thought.
It was already getting dark and there was still no sign of Rukawa. He was starting to worry… No, worry was an understatement. He knew Rukawa hates being late. So what could a possible explanation for his nonpresence be?
He leaned his head on the bench and closed his eyes. Actually, he had an idea on what Rukawa's-important-thing-to-tell-him is. Sakuragi smiled. He had been waiting for that for a long time and now it's about to happen.
But, he's still not here… Worry creased his face again.
He looked around the park, and despite the worry that was building up in him, he couldn't help but feel a bit relaxed whenever he's there. The park was his and Rukawa's place.
Worrying will not help, he contradictorily thought, as his brain flashed unpretty images of what could have happened to his kitsune.
It won't help at all, he shook his head. Kaede will come to me. He always did…
