Y/N COUGHED, COVERING HER MOUTH with her sleeve as she ran with no time to stop. She'd been full-out sprinting for the better part of an hour, near as she could figure, determined to get to a less exposed area where she could find somewhere to sleep during the days and kill demons in the nights.
Her lungs burned, and each step brought her closer to stumbling, but she couldn't stop. It was terrifying to think that she might die if she dared to slow her desperate race, and despite her constant turmoil, Y/N wasn't ready to die. Not yet, anyway.
Finally, her lungs burned with such intensity that she slowed just a little, clutching at her chest and breathing in sharp, pained gasps as she attempted to make her way up Fujikasane with a slightly greater degree of stealth, so she didn't alert anyone, human or demon, to her presence. By now, the sun had risen fully into the sky, hung in the thin balance between early and midmorning. Y/N estimated she had ten hours to find an ideal hiding spot and get some rest before night came.
An unnatural rustle had her skidding to a stop in a swirl of dust, her eyes darting around as her hand drifted to her blade. The sound had to have been caused by something other than an animal given its volume, so it was either another slayer, or-
"Oh!" a head popped out of the branches of the tree above Y/N, hanging upside-down like a bat and nearly startling her to a scream (though she reined in her fear just in time). "That's the cute girl from the start!"
