Aki walks inside her home and walks into her room kneeling. She gathers some things and shoves them into a bag, her tail swaying behind her on the floor. She hums a little before fixing herself as she looks around. Once packed, she got up and walks from her room to the den and out the door. Walking down the street, she walks from her home to find a training ground.

Aki rubs the back of her head, "Quite some time actually, A year and a half to be exact," she replies looking around. She looks at what remained of her first home sighing a little, only to see pieces of lumber sticking from the ground. "I was born in this village, raised here," she adds while pointing toward the pile. "Not this exactly, but the house that stood here was Michicyo family property, I tried to take care of it, I was able to bring back my parents back from the dead, but that back fired." She continues down the road walking away from the pile, her hair covering one of eyes feeling slightly hollow deep inside as if a ghost roaming around the growing village.

Curiousity tugged at Yume. "You succeeded in bring someone back from the dead?" He asked eyeing her side long with a mixture of admiration and doubt.

Aki stood silently, as she looks toward the ground for a bit before answering as she remembers it all. "Yes, recreation using their ashes and my blood along with some of their trinkets," she replies finally. She looks toward the remains silently, her eyes lacking their glow from before, now just voids of violet. Her feet move to the remains and she walks from the gate onto what would have been the porch. She looks around as if searching for something until something under the ashes touches her foot. Aki bends over picking up finding a wedding band. Her hair falls over her eyes while clinching her hand into a tight fist. A low growl could be heard as she was tempted to throw it, but shoves it in her pocket. She walks around the remains a little moreuntil her footsteps sounded different. Something hollow was beneath her feet, taking a step back, she dusts off what seemed to be a hidden door.

Yume held back a bit, hesiating at the edge of the property as Aki moved about the wreckage. He watched as she retrieved the ring, taking note of her body language and wisely opted to remain quiet a bit longer.
it wasn't until she revealed the door that he skipped forward, no longer able to contain his curiousity. "What's that?" He said, flipping to walk on his hands the last few yards.

"A storage room where I kept all my ingredients for poisons I make and what-not," she replies as she pulls the door open leading to a down stairwell. She set a foot down onto first stair heang it creek.

Yume settled his feet on the top of his head with a thoughtful look, lowering himself onto his forarms and cocking his head to peer into the dark passage. "You sure that's safe? besides the being unstable structually... there might be fumes from the poison down there."

She shook her head a little, " Its fine," she said as she made her way down the stairs looking around, she sets her bag onto the floor and walks over to a shelf gathering herbs and odd oils setting them into the bag. What kind didn't matter to her, she knew this place would at least be safe, even though it was dark in the chamber, she really didn't focus on labels.

Yume unfolded slowly to his feet, lingering at the top of the stairs as Aki went below. "Need some help?" He asked at last, testing the first stair with the toes of his right foot before stuffing his hands into his pockets and proceeding to descend into the cellar.

The scent of the herbs was strong to the point where she had to pull up her scarf, though to a normal human being it was just foul, it was almost deadly to a kitsune. "No I'm fine," she answered him as she gathers the last bits of what she needed before taking the bag and putting it back onto her back. She climbs the stairs walking up and waiting for Yume to follow.

Yume, plugging his nose, waited while Aki gathered her belongings before trailing her back to fresh air. The latter he gulped thankfully, huffing the last lingering stench of to many roast herbs out of his nostrils.
"Sooo. I guess you're not staying here... where to?"

"This way," she replies while closing the door and walks from the property and down the street once more. She pulls the ring from her pocket looking at it as she continues to walk.

"Was that your mom's?" Yume asked after the silence had stretched a little to long. He kicked up his pace again to match his shorter stride with Aki's.

She sighs a little," No, its just a bitter memory now," she said softly as she continues to walk. Her voice had held a slight iceyness to it that could send a chill down the back of someone if they were to look at her eyes at that moment. Continuing down the streets and alleys, they finally arrive at her home, walking up to the gate, she opens it and walks to the door. Once the door was open, she walks in setting her bag down leaving the door open.
