Ember is immediately terrified and clings to me. “What the hell was that?” “Yokai!” Ember screams.

She's amazing and I've seen her get between two fighting bears three times her size and put them in their place. She bows to no one and she is also the last person you want to be on the outs with.

Girl (sweet voice, razor edges): “Kayo. Pleasure to meet the local queens.” Seras and I exchange one look. We know these three. Hanamaki summer festivals. Obon nights when the veil got thin.

Let me reintroduce myself—I'm the Corpse Tailor, Koi Hadachi!" As Koi finished speaking, his whole body was enveloped in a purple light, and two crowns appeared behind his head. The wriggling corpses began to tangle together, forming the shape of a wolf! Its mouth was lined with densely packed sharp teeth made of human ribs, and its tail comprised intertwined arms.

The air around her crackled with raw power as she turned back towards the attackers, her fear morphing into a blinding rage.

I shouted, apologizing for accosting them, in shock by him unexpectedly doing that. Suddenly, the strobe lights came on again. And while actors dressed in horror costumes were jumping out at us, that wasn’t why everyone began screaming bloody murder.

The van stopped at a small hotel. The driver turned around, and Kai saw her clearly for the first time. Young, pretty, with golden eyes like a fox. "You're not human," Derek said, reaching for his knife. "How rude." She smiled. When she did, Kai saw her shadow on the wall. It had nine tails. "I'm Yuki. I'm a kitsune. A fox spirit.
