[ For a few moments Ange sat there motionlessly, staring at his dead body. She wouldn't even be able to bring herself to move from here, she knew that much. The only way to move somehow would be to just try and block out any emotion, any thought - much like she had many a time during the bullying at her school. Don't think of anything. Don't feel anything. Instead.. just run.
And so she did. Without even thinking more about all of this, she instead just let her feet work rather than her brain. All she had to do was keep running no matter what, get out of the forest and safely back to the house. Even if it would be without Amakusa from now on, even if once they got to go home she would be all alone entirely again.. she just had to not think about that, but run.
The girl ran through the forest, avoiding the things chasing her out of little more than sheer instinct rather than thought, and then ran through the village until she found the house she had been staying in, the house she hadn't seen for a few days. Without thinking she walked through it until she got to her room, dropping the pistol on the ground with a hollow sound. Soundlessly she let herself drop on the bed, her bed - the bed she had shared with him before again and again already.
It wasn't until then that her mind started functioning again.. and she cried for the man she lost. ]
