>>29214 I have to apologize for that... working on it. Really sorry. I always forget to double check.
>>29217 Rations can either help you or hinder you. Like tempting the youkai in the forest. The stuttering is just...an effect. I guess.

Gathering what I could hold in my two pockets, it should suffice for this youkai extermination. I could use a good washing up too, but my duty comes first.
Heading out immediately, I did not think twice about the dangers that would befall upon me. After all, this was just a much more dangerous extermination, or so I thought.
The journey to the village was quick and swift, yet there was something unnerving about what I saw as I stepped into it. There was not even a single youkai there.
"So, where are the youkai...?"
It was unsettling, like I was being watched by someone. With my charms in hand, I entered the village with caution, wanting to finish this as soon as possible.
"What was it that they were saying...something about the youkai gathering food?" It sounded unnatural enough to me. I don't ever remember that youkai would do something like that. It was just like they were under someone's order. Anyway, I was more concerned with my current job.
Searching around the village, and there were no signs of any youkai that i could see. Darn it, why couldn't it be in the morning?

Was that someone? A small shock for me, nonetheless. I thought that the villagers were all at the shrine...
Looking around, it seemed to came from direction from the Forest of magic. That's perfect. More legwork for the poor shrine maiden. Still, I'm required to find out what was the cause of this.
In the morning, the Forest of magic was creepy enough. Now, in the middle of the night, it was full of dangerous youkai that would tear apart anyone who was 'dumb' enough to enter it.
"Nothing like a trip into the forest..." I sighed, wondering how long was this going to take me. I wanted my futon much more badly than ever now. "Here goes nothing, Reimu."
Forest of Magic The path was straight and true enough, yet I didn't think it was that easy. That scarlet mist was still around, but I could feel something, as I stepped into the forest.
It felt like my body wanted me to back away, away from the source of the mist. Maybe, I was on the right track? Perhaps I could finish the youkai extermination and end this scarlet weather at the same time...
*Rustle*
Not again. What was that? Someone was certainly watching me, from the time where I was in the village up till now. It could be bad, if was a youkai that was looking for it's next meal.
[] Investigate that immediately. Something doesn't feel right.
[] It was my imagination at work...perhaps.

Any comments would be helpful, if you feel that I should have any change to what isn't right.
Thanks.
