Some feeling of fear overwhelms you as you enter this area. A large bridge extends from one end of the valley to the other, showing a red river below it along with stairs that lead down near the river. Up a small path from those stairs and you reach a mountain cabin that doesn't seem to show you what it was meant for. There is an emergency power generator and also power controls inside, but those are basically all that are inside except broken fragments of wood. on the top level of this cabin you can exit the valley or continue by crossing over a rope bridge. Here you'll find abandoned mine tracks and some path that leads down a slope. Along this path is a split, to the top of the slope where it seems something was dug up there or to the bottom where a broken down car lies and another exit out of the area lies.
Summary of What's Happened Here:
Day One 00:00 to 01:00 Cyn: Car died on the road and slept for a little bit. Made a small adventure around the area finding no gas inside a cabin and the hole that was dug up. She left a little after finding the hole.

0:00 Day One
She had been driving the last 24 hours straight. Cyn was tired but had to meet up with her band in 3 days or they'll miss out on the record deal. She should of swallowed her fear and flown with the rest of the band but she had chickened out. She hated planes ever since her sister had died on a simple flight home. She winced in pain as she remembered her poor sister's phone call from the plane. She had just told Cyn she was going to be an auntie when the captain came on in the background, than many screams broke out and fuzz. She found out later that the plane's wing had caught fire and was going down. And although she was never close to her sister it was enough to make her not want to fly. Her band had called her for the 50th time and she was now glad her cell phone had lost its signal.
The clock flashed 0:00, she perfered military time as she felt it was more exact. She took another sip from a red bull and finished off the can and threw it in the back seat. A large neat pile had built up. She reached over for another out of the case and opened the can wondering if she'd make it in time. Her eyes felt heavy so she turned on the radio, nothing but a soft whitenoise filled the air waves. "Argh... damn small towns." She tossed back another can after finishing it and picked up a cd. She kissed it and placed it inside the player hoping it would work. "Please work..." she pleaded as she heard it spinning hopelessly. She sighed and just as she was about to give up a heavy guitar solo filled the air followed by a harsh screaming voice. It was her bands demo cd... it was like nothing she had ever heard and was glad they were able to create something so orignal and new.
As the cd continued playing she noticed the road get narrower and the scenary change. She felt that fear of not making it in time and the overwhelming moment that she had let everyone down. She pulled off to the side in front of a large bridge. She checked her cell phone. "Still no signal... I bet Rodger is having a fit." she rolled her eyes and she opened her door to get out and walk around a bit.
The cold air was brisk as she paced up the side. Her boots crunching under the soft earth. She walked towards the bridge and looked down. She looked over the side. "That can't be right... its red?" she shook her head decideing it was either a trick of light or a result from no sleep.
After a few minutes of walking about and talking to herself she got back into the car. She turned the key and it muttered not turning over. "Damnit!" she hit the wheel upset that her crappy car crapped out on her.
"Middle of no where, no cell phone.... this is what horror movies are made of." She sighed and looked around wondering what to do. There was nothing for miles the way she had came and she wasn't sure how far she'd have to go before reaching anything at all. All she could think of was the band and the see the record deal slipping away in one of those mellow dramatic poses, of it falling from her hands and the screams of her band and the let down.
"Now what?" She knocked the now empty case of red bull to the floor and layed across the seat.... "Maybe a rest will clear my mind and something will come to me later." She closed her eyes and put her arms behind her head. Slowly drifting into a much needed sleep.

She turned over falling off the seat and got wedge between the flooring and the car seat. "Ow..." she wimpered as she rubbed her eyes open. She hadn't been asleep for more that 20 minutes. She managed to unwedge herself and sit up. She looked up the road wondering what to do.
She opened her door and stood outside for a bit, kicking the dirt about. Checking her cell phone she had no signal still. She sighed and started walking up the road. She stopped at the bridge and looked over again... "Its red?" she remembered she had seen it that way before but maybe its just dirt deposits that turn it that color... she rubbed her left arm that had fallen asleep.
Slowly she made her way across and what seemed like forever she reached the other side. "Wow what a walk...." her eyes had misjudged the distance. hmm... she pondered a moment, somewhat resting. She glanced around and saw a small path... she walked over and found some stairs that lead to a cabin. "Is that a cabin... omg is that a generator? theirs hope after all..." she started to run down the stairs, tired or not. Reaching the bottom she missed the last step and fell to her knees, cutting her plams and knee caps on the rough dirt. she stood up cursing to her self and dushing off the dirt.
She walked up tothe door of the cabin and knocked. As she knocked the door slung open... "Not like a horror movie at all..." she grinned as she peered inwards. It looked like no one had been there in ages. "Umm... hello?" she asked just to be sure, when no one answered her she stepped forward, the floor boards creaking under her boots and dust swirled around in the air.
"This is so strange..." as she walked over to the generator. It looked new. She nodded her head and kneeled down to take a closer look... "Figures no gas around..." she kicked the generator and paused wondering what to do next.
she sat down on the cold hard floor and held her knees... "Their went any hope." she gave a heavy sigh and thought about the band, her cat Misu, and her best friend/soon to be boyfriend John. Just as she was about to give up she saw a back door swing open... "Umm... hello." nothing but wind answered her. She stood up ready to fight, a heighten sense her karate course had infused into her.
Slowly she walked over to the door and stepped outside. Nothing. She relaxed a bit and saw a somewhat new rope bridge... "Very strange indeed... things just aren't adding up." she groaned in fustration. "Okay I'll follow this path... hence its here and I have no where to go." she started saying in a melodramic way like the gods were playing a joke on her.
She paused before the rope and double checked... "Yep new rope alright." she pucked one side of the rope and watched it bounce. She took a step out onto the new bridge. It waved in the wind making her antsy about crossing it. She reached the other side in no time.
Looking around she found a pair of tracks. "Of course theirs tracks to lead me to my doom..." she was starting to get a bit unrational... prolly do to the red bulls and no sleep. She yawns as she walked on a rail pretending to be in a balanceing act. She bowed as the tracks ended down a slope and at a split.
"So... ennie mennie mynnie moe, catch a tiger by its toe, if he hollars let him go ennie mennie mynnie moe... my mother said to pick the one that won't lead me to my death so you are not it." she pointed to the left which seemed to wine down to the bottom. "So your not it, this means you are." she pointed to the right which wound up to the top.
After another hike she reached the top. The dirt was soft under her boots... she kicked at it. It looked as if it had been dug up. she sighed looking around for her next sign, another path... after a few minutes she found a path. Where it went she didn't know... but she knew something wasn't right and only prayed the path wasn't to her doom.
{sorry, really long post and some bad grammar issues but I'm to tired to fix em... -yawns-}

1:01 Day 1
Miyu ran from the woods, panting and crying, until she slid down this mudslide. Sliding down it at a fast speed, she had no intentions of crying out or grabbing on to something. Down she went until she hit a gravel-like bottom. She mumbled and got up, looking at how dirty her skirt was now. She brushed most of the stuff off and then looked around. The gravel was normal but, like the puddles she saw, the river was red. She shivered as she got closer to it, and looked into it. She saw her reflection, and then her mother and fathers faces appeared above hers with happy looking expressions. She felt an urge to cry, and turned around to see them both there, but like everyone else. "Were so proud of you Miyu. Let's celebrate with a dinner." Her father said in an awkward tone. Miyu hyperventilated and did what she was good at, running. She ran away from them and down the river trying yo make as little noise as possible.
She reached a stairwell and started trampling up it scared and confused. As she reached the top, she noticed a broken down car. She ran over to it and jiggled the handle, seeing it was unlocked. She climbed in and instantly felt the smell of Red Bull wash over her. She coughed and looked in the back seat to see the whole collection of them. With and idea, she grabbed six of them and looked around the car for something long or stringy. Finding nothing yet, she crawled to the drivers side and opened the trunk. Being curious, Miyu revved the engine, but nothing happened. She got out and checked the trunk, finding what looked to be a small little case of tools and one of those windshield and window scrapers. She grabbed that along with the monkey wrench that was in there. She went back to the front seat and tightened the grip of the wrench on the seams of the seat. She pulled her hardest as they came undone and ripped off. She collected all the seams from the seat and made little holes in the cans.
After her creation was complete, she tied them to a few trees deeper in the woods, making a trap so she knew if someone was coming. Setting two of these up near the two ways to get up the hill, she could find a place to hide if one of those things were coming. After she had tested them, putting a few pebbles in them so they rattle, she went up the hill and noticed a fork, one with stairs and one with a trail. She chose the trail and noticed a shrine or something to her right. She looked closer and saw there was a card or something inside. She knew she didn't need it so she ignored it and walked forward before noticing someone standing there. "Miyuuuu, Don't be a bad girl. Bad girls get punished you know." Her dad said in that same creepy tone. Miyu bolted down the hill as she heard her father chasing her.
She ran across the road as she turned around to see her dad still chasing her. She grabbed the windshield scraper from the spot she left it in and waited for him to get closer. "Oh Miyu, We've missed you." He said getting closer. She swung it once at him as it hit his side.
"Miyu! Don't be such a brat!" He yelled as he tried to grab her. Miyu jabbed him in the gut with it and whacked him across the head with it as he fell down and curled into a ball. Heaving and puffing with exasperation, she dropped the scraper and ran back up to her little spot she made near a hole. She layed down next to it and began crying, and soon cried herself to sleep.
Without realizing, she had also dropped her pink flashlight with a little kitten and her name on the bottom of it.

01:01 Day 1
Lina and Cyn arrived in Janokubi looking around in the darkness. They were on a bridge at the moment and Lina was looking down at the red river. She looked back at Cyn and smiled. "I used to come here with my husband. We read some writing on this bridge, belonged to some kid named Tamon Takeuchi." Lina got away from the edge of the bridge and started walking. "Shall we continue?"
As she walked she found something on the ground. A pink flashlight and on the bottom was the name was "Miyu". Lina turned it on and illuminated the area, unaware of the female shibito coming up behind her and Cyn.

01:01 Day one
Cyn continued to follow Lina. She remembered this bridge and the creepy water that ran under it. She stopped at the bridge and watched Lina continue on not hearing what she had said over the roar of the water.
"Lina... is... is... there another way?" she felt stupid for asking and knew it was prolly going to be no. Than she saw Lina flash a light. "Uh Lina where'd you...?" before she could finish something jumped from behind her and grabed her by the neck. "Lina...Linnn...aaa... HELP!" she tried to scream.

She watched as Lina just stood there. "Linnaaa..." her crys muffled. She felt a sharp pain in her neck... it bit her... the only thing she could think of was how she let her band down... "so this is how it'll end?" she blacked out.

1:02 Day 1
Not getting much sleep, Miyu had roamed around looking for useful things, leading up to her encounter with other people.
"Mummy! Hey! Over here!" Miyu yelled at her mother who was attacking the innocent woman. She stopped and turned to look at Miyu.
"Therrrrre you are. Come with me, your fathers very angry with you." Her mother said sauntering over to her. Miyu waited for just the right moment, and then chucked a bunch of rocks at her mother.
"You always treated me like an adult! I'm only a kid! I hate you!" She yelled at her mother before running away. Her mother chased after.
"Come back Miyu! Your in big trouble!" She shouted after the little girl totally forgetting the two women there.

Lina heard some voices from across the bridge and realized that Cyn didn't even follow her across. She ran back over, the light shining from the flashlight, and screamed as she saw Cyn on the floor bleeding. "HOLY s**t!" She screamed again and ran over to her body and bent down. "Cyn, can you hear me! Wake up!" she yelled at her placing Cyn's head in her lap.
(This is a flashback.)
"Blow out your candles honey," Lina said to a little girl that was in a hospital bed. "It's your birthday you know, and tomorrow daddy said he'd come and visit you in the hospital."
"But... I wanna celebrate my birthday with daddy here Mom," the little girl said looking up at Lina. "He's coming tomorrow right, why can't we celebrate then?"
"Well... what if the cake can't make it by tomorrow?" Lina asked trying to not put the name she had in mind where she put the word cake.
"We'll see. If the cake doesn't last, then we'll celebrate early," The girl said happily and place the cake on a table next to her bed. She let out a couple of small coughes before allowing herself to smile.

Cyn opened her eyes slowly and looked up at Lina... "I'm sorry..." she coughed... "If only I had followed and didn't let my fears get in the way..." her words sputtering.
She accepted the fact that she was going to die... here in a strange place after her dreams coming true, after meeting such a nice person. She looked up pass Lina's blank face watching the red rain fall, the coldness of it now made aware, dripping soaking her completly.
She felt a twitch in her neck... "Lina... somethings...." she reached up feeling the wound closing.... "Lina, something is most deafinally wrong here." she looked at Lina and tried to sit up.

Miyu looked back to see her mother following, and smiled. She felt like a kind of hero somehow. She turned to face frontwise until she hit something in front of her and fell down.
"Now now Miyu... Why would you run from us? We love you." He said to her, as she started crawling backwards, away from them.
"Get away!" Miyu cried at him as she rolled over to crawl the other way and saw her mothers dress in the way.
"Now behave darling... We only want a hug..." They both said getting closer to her. She screamed as she backed up against the wall of the building and fell through the window. She landed on her back and looked up at the ceiling of the building. She rolled over and began crawling up the stairs, feeling her legs numb with fear. She could hear her parents coming around after her.

Lina nodded at Cyn and noticed the wound was gone. "Something is REALLY wrong here," she said as she stood up. "I want you to follow me, we have to save that little girl. She might not be able as much as you did you know?" Lina started walking to where she heard some screams starting. "That much her her, come on!"
Lina ran for the screams, her instincts as a mother kicking in from what happened to her daughter before. When she started arriving she saw the two grown-up shibito's heading for the little one. "No, I won't let her die again!" Lina said, the little girl starting to look like her own daughter.
Grabbing a large rock she ran at the male shibito and slammed the rock on the back of his head, making the skull shatter and him falling down isntantly, curling into a ball. Lina then beat the woman shibito's head to a bloody pulp before she realized how inhumane she was being. She looked at herself covered in the blood, soaked in it like a bath.
"What-what did I just... do?" she asked frightened.

Cyn stood up and nodded her head. "Okay lets go." she felt better, no longer tired or dizzy. As she ran trying to keep up with Lina she rubbed where the wound had been... it makes no sense she thought maybe she was dreaming or still blacked out until she tripped and landing face first into the ground. She quickly stood up trying to catch up to Lina who disappeared on her.
Finally she reached Lina... she stepped slowly taking it all in. "Lina? Are you okay?"

Miyu stopped when she heard the sound of something being squished... or crunched. She climbed down the stairs slowly and saw what had happened.
"Mum...? Mummy?" She asked feeling a kind of pain inside her. It was like losing her mother all over again. Her legs shivered as she crawled closer, but stopped as she notices the blood splatter. She looked at the woman who had done it with her own big brown eyes, looking like a sad puppy.
"You didn't... Have to... Bludgeon her... Like that." Miyu said gulping for air as she began to cry.

"They were... they were... they were..." Lina was in a trance because that was her first time acting barbaric to someone or something other than her husband. She had never inflicted harm to him like this, though, and it scared her even more that she could kill something so easily with her good nature. "They were going to kill you!" she blurted out to the child.
"I couldn't let another child die like you... not again..." Lina said looking at Miyu, tears filling her eyes. "Not like my Kiki..."
It was nine o'clock and visiting hours were almost over, the cake starting to become molded and the candle wax melting into the cake. Lina looked at the girl in the bed and shook her head. "Come on honey, I'll buy you another cake and we'll celebrate together ok?"
"Not without daddy," the little girl said weakly. She coughed a bit. "I want him here... to celebrate with me..."
