Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Mysterious Stranger

Kaito walked for hours, the moon overhead casting an eerie glow over the deserted landscape. He had no destination in mind, no plan except to keep moving.

As the night wore on, Kaito's feet began to ache, and his stomach growled with hunger. He spotted a small diner in the distance, its neon sign a beacon of warmth and comfort.

Kaito pushed open the door and slid onto a stool at the counter. The diner was empty except for a lone figure sitting in the corner, hood up and face obscured.

The waitress, a friendly woman with a warm smile, took Kaito's order and slid a cup of steaming hot coffee in front of him.

As Kaito waited for his food, he couldn't help but sneak glances at the mysterious stranger. There was something about the way they sat, motionless and silent, that sent a shiver down Kaito's spine.

The stranger's presence seemed to fill the entire diner, making the air feel thick and heavy. Kaito's instincts screamed at him to be cautious, to stay away from this person.

But Kaito's curiosity got the better of him. He found himself wondering who this stranger was, what they wanted, and why they seemed so... dangerous.

As Kaito's food arrived, the stranger finally stirred, pushing back their hood to reveal piercing green eyes that seemed to bore into Kaito's very soul
