Several weeks had passed by in a blink of an eye, and Seira couldn't help but remember how cruel and unforgiving time can truly be.

Aki and herself had slowly begun to make their rented condo a home, but it would be nothing like their four walls back in Japan, and both couldn't help but miss such a comfort. Neither one of them enjoyed the tip toeing on eggshells, and the short, coded words spoken in between both of them hoping the other understood what they were saying. Aki missed seeing Seira bath herself in light day dresses and listening to her softly hum the lyrics of a record that filled the rooms with melody. Seira missed the sight of Aki reading one of her books that he had asked to read from her ever-growing collection, and he always looked so peaceful laying on the couch with his feet propped up on the arm rest. They ached to return back to their lives, as if neither one of them had sold their souls to hunting down devils; like they both lived regular everyday lives.

Neither one of them lived normal lives though, and Seira often had to pinch herself back to reality with that fact.

There were no leads being made on their witch hunt for the primal fear, and day by day the hunt only became more grueling and agonizing. Seira was tired of walking around the small town knocking on every door and asking the same line of questions, "Have you seen anything unusual," or, "Does it have an active spot, or is it pretty erratic," and "Thank you for your time, if you see anything weird, please, contact me at blah blah blah." Seira was on the verge of ripping her own hair out, and Aki couldn't help but watch as she slowly became a ticking time bomb.
