There was a reason why Shiloh had been rather open-minded when it came to what the fox kid said. And once she introduced herself that nagging sense of familiarity finally had a face. Natsumi, or 'Greed', as Azhizheth had referred her as–had been someone who had always managed to cross paths with Shiloh at specific, opportune times. Each time they had met it had been for important reasons; either it was Natsumi lending her help and information, or she was requesting it from Shiloh. Despite her belated shock and panic at the knowledge of the 'phantom' being another class of World Eater, Natsumi had never done anything to intentionally throw the world off the rails–and had been a literal life-saver more than once.
It was good to see an old acquaintance again after the train wreck that had been the build up to the inevitable Void Invasion. But she kept this tidbit of information to herself, as it wasn't the time and place for a reunion. Als,o because that sort of information wouldn't do any good in revealing to the other people here. At least the exorcist didn't try attacking the projection. Shiloh predicted that there would be a high possibility that the exorcist girl wouldn't want to work with her, but she never had the chance to ask. The girl made the decision for them–deciding to go off and tackle the two-headed problem by herself. Maybe this was for the best, as they just didn't seem to get along. However Shiloh had a feeling that they might run into each other again sooner than they'd like, especially since her rotten luck had ways in making a bad situation worse.
Once the girl was out of earshot, Shiloh turned to the badgers and Natsumi. "Well, looks like it's just us now. I'm not sure which one of the two the girl will find first, but I really hope it's not the invisible one." As for her, she'd head towards the bone graveyard. A graveyard sounded like a more open area, which meant more routes of escape if she had to run. Sometimes it was a small comfort knowing you could see what was trying to kill you–except for a few cases. When it came down to the wire, strength wasn't her forte and she was no priest. For people like her, there were other ways to eliminate threats…and they involved a liberal use of force. Waving to the old badger, she left towards the northeastern edge of the village. Soon she passed the abandoned houses and was at the fringe of Menomori.
She'd passed through the Forest of Eyes many times to reach the Spirit Realm, but this was something else. The silence felt more ominous, the trees and bamboo thickets making shapes that she swore would move when she caught them out of the corner of her eye. Putting on her force gauntlets and running a quick mental inventory of her current layers of armor, Shiloh took a deep breath behind her clay mask. To hunt a beast, one must know how to think like a beast. Even if the creature in question was more of a deranged monster fueled by rage instead of an animal. Monstrous or not, animals were driven by single-minded reasons. Once you figure out what those reasons are–the rest falls into place. The mist seemed to shift and billow the deeper she ventured in, dimming the skies like a grey haze. Though it was harder to do with a mask on, she focused her senses to track down the abandoned boneyard hidden beneath the trees. Mud. Moss. A stale, humid air. With slow and quiet steps, she saw the rows of uncarved chunks of rocks serving as makeshift headstones. There was no grass around them, only dank moist earth and scattered piles of stained bones.
Creeping closer, she strained her eyes to see if there were any signs of the exorcist's tracks. The girl should have arrived before her, and the former had a very distinctive type of clothing… Suddenly a chill ran down her spine at the sound of a branch snapping. An acrid, putrid stench began to fill the air as she could very clearly smell dried blood. A terrible, lumbering shadow shook the earth as it landed, sickly yellow lights glaring straight at her. A scream seized in her throat as the first of the two mentioned beasts let out a deafening roar! Smashing one of its forelimbs through a tree, the trunk splintered into pieces and that was when she started to run. She could feel her body go stiff with fear and a terrible ringing in her ears, but there was no time to lose as right out of the gate this thing was practically burning with an insatiable bloodlust!
"When all else fails, move on to plan B. And when that plan fails, move on to the next plan."
