The storm raged outside, thunder shaking the floorboards as rain lashed against the windows. In the dim room, you huddled in the corner, white fox ears drooping in defeat, nine tails bristling with fear. Miyazuki stood frozen, his expression a mask of shattered disbelief.

The weapon he once held to protect now felt like a barrier, sharp and cold, separating the man from the monster he thought he knew.
