Any of Those Things;; [Open]

[elaine]

Elaine glanced over her shoulder on numerous occasions, each time she seemed to become more and more paranoid. It was her own fault, staying late at the shop just to finish expanding the memory of a PC and now she was forced to walk home, alone, at night. Most people really didn't get this skittish about walking home at eight in the evening but Elaine believed in to many Japanese urban legends, the one she feared most was about the 'Slit-Mouthed Women'.

The brunette girl let out a gasp when she heard something walking behind her, she turned around and backing up cautiously while staring wildly around her. In fact she was so determined on trying to find the source of the sound she didn't notice herself backing up into a rather creepy alley. Elaine then felt herself collide with something, or rather someone one, and whirled around with a shriek. She prepared to slap any stalkers/shinigami/rapists or slit mouthed women that were behind her.

Before she could attack that person though, she realized that they didn't look any of those things. She squinted up at them with her big bright emerald eyes.

21 was taking a night stroll as always. Just walking around, looking at the night sky, enjoying the shining stars. He loved it when the streets were empty so he could walk and think without a sound in the air. Though sometimes it was so quite that he hated to even move, afraid he would ruin the beautiful silence. His yellow eyes darted down from the night sky when he heard a sound. His eyes flashed with anger, but only for a second. 21 saw no point in wasting his energy on anger.

21 looked all around looking for someone, or something that could've made the noise. To his surprise he saw a girl walking. 21 found this rather strange, but then again it must seem strange for him to be out here this late at night too. He shrugged it off as he kept on walking. 21 wasn't really sure how old she was, but she looked either 18 or 19.

As 21 got closer to her, he could tell she wasn't comfortable walking at night this late. He had no where to be but he wanted to go somewhere else now, so he walked past her. His shoulder brushed against hers, and at contact she gave out a shriek and turned to him. She looked like she was going to slap him at first so 21 got ready for the impact, but when he opened his eyes, he saw that she wasn't going to slap him. His body became relaxed again, but he couldn't help notice her emerald eyes squinting at him

"I'm sorry for scaring you. Didn't mean to really, just not paying attention to were I was going. Once again I apologize." He gave her a little smirk. 21 had a rather sad look in his eye, so it made the smirk all that more awkward looking.
