"Good morning Hailey are you ready for training?" I asked as I knocked on Hailey's door. I guessed she was already at the clearing then. Sometimes she did this so I wasn't too worried. So I headed over to the clearing. I didn't see her or sense her on the way there. I was becoming a little worried now. I arrived at the clearing and I didn't see her. I waited for about 10 minutes. Then 20 and then 30. I raced back to to the village and knocked on her door. "I'm coming in Hailey!" I said in a hurry. When I barged into her house though, she was no where to be seen. Not even on her Rīfubeddo. Now I was starting to panic. I bolted out of her house and called the guards and Kage. "Search the village and the surrounding area for the new Wakai hito that joined us not long ago!" I ordered with desperation clear in my voice. "Hai Shefu Forest Hikari! We will find her!" They said as they left. I also joined them in their search.

I opened my eyes to see that I was in a dessert. When I looked up into the sky It was a beautiful night sky with purple through it. "Like a galaxy isn't?" A voice said. "W-Who are you!?" I asked showing that I was suprised. "I am all that you fear, I am as dark as the night sky above." The voice continued.
"I am... Kurai yuoru." the voice said quietly, as if trying to warn me. "Where am I and what do you want with me Kurai yuoru?" I asked while looking around frantically trying to find the source of the voice. I knew that this person's name meant dark night in Japanese so I knew the voice wasn't completely good. I needed to escape from this place. "Let's have some fun shall we?" The voice, changing slightly in pitch demanded.

"Hailey! Can you hear me? Where are you?" I called out in vein. We had been searching for Hailey for about 4 hours now and still hadn't found her. I was now beyond worried. "Have you picked her up with your senses yet?" Kage asked. I stepped forward a few steps and tried my senses.
"I found her!"
