Akshasha
The little girl with her head in the clouds flounced away. Akshasha was certain that her head was a-spin with thoughts about the night sky and the quiet pensive calm of the darkness. The girl whirled away tearing through the nighttime as only young female humans could. Akshasha wasn't certain if Dani was wearing pants, but it certainly wouldnt be the first time that she had left without them in the middle of the night. He thought his situation over. What would frighten her the most... Many contemplations raced through the shadow's mind as it kept pace with his thoughtful owner. She seemed to be avoiding something as she went, perhaps the shadow could use that to a certain effect.

After quite some time, or at least what felt like an unnecessary amount of running to the already hungry shade, Dani had settled herself somewhere she decided was fit for her throne. A small concrete ledge near the back of the park, she sat down her heartbeat alone beating against the cool gale of the wind. It was silent like this for awhile. Akshasha chose not to make himself known for now, instead listening to the calming pulse of Dani's heart. It could have been an eternity. Sadly, Akshasha was a realist and it was more like eight minutes before a second heartbeat was heard off in the distance.

Akshasha was off like a wisp, to greet the newcomer in his own unique way. The man was only a little less than a quarter mile away; and was simply taking a moderately paced stroll through the night. Akshasha sighed, I cant simply assault a jogger... He wrestled with the thought for a bit. Perhaps the jogger could attack Dani though... Akshasha put on his scariest motif; making himself to be just over four feet high and jet black, quadrapedal with vicious claws and a sloped back ending in a jaw filled with points. The tail that expressed his agitation was only Proverbial icing on the mortal's cake or so he told himself.

Akshasha waited in his vicious feline guise, just past the fork in the road that divided Dani's park with the rest of the neighborhood. The man's heartbeat droned heavily, in time with his footsteps, he was quickly approaching the shade's hiding spot. Akshasha almost shuddered with anticipation. Dani gets to have all the fun... he thought to himself as he sprung forth from his hiding spot in a nearby backyard. The jogger's eyes went wide with horror, and he halted in his traps. Akshasha felt upset by the under reaction. Maybe he is just stupid... The jogger mumbled something about Pumas and turned and darted in the other direction, straight through Dani's park. That's more like it... now I only have to steer Stepping through the shadows proved tiring for Akshasha, but he managed to, albeit a little awkwardly, force the jogger to run toward the back hill where Dani was to be waiting. The man never screamed, to the shade's frustration, and instead seemed entirely focused on outrunning the would-be Puma.
