The soft rustle of the leaves was the only notable sound as she walked slowly through the cemetery, dragging a chain along the ground. The full moon was high in Halloween Town's sky, the eternal midnight somewhat comforting to the Nobody.
She was visiting her hometown one last time before leaving for Castle Oblivion, after having decided that an eternity of wandering was not what she wanted. Everything looked the same as she strolled into the town square. The same fountain still glowed an eerie green, the same cobblestones still clattered beneath her heels.
She still fit right in with the decor, her leather ensemble, black tattoos, and chains not much different from the local costume. A pair of vampyres passed her by with a polite nod, their dark rimmed eyes set in pale faces following her as she walked by.
Rexikat wondered how long it had been since anybody who would remember her lived here. 10 years? 20? She'd stopped caring about time long ago. Becoming nonexistent had completely erased her care for such mortal means of measurement. All that mattered now...was nothing, really.
Standing alone in the middle of the square, she re-wrapped her chain around her hand, staring impassively at her fingers. Nothing really mattered.

Walking through the quiet graveyard, she opened the creaky gate to Moonlight Hill, where so long ago, she had buried her friend and lover. She made her way over to the worn headstones, nothing more than slabs of rock set in the ground at the foot of the hill. With a soft rustle, she settled herself on the ground on their graves, the graves of Giovanni Garavisi and Dorian Hakoshiri.
Reaching out to stroke their headstones, as if they could feel the non-existent emotion she was trying to convey, Rexikat slipped into her mind, through the few precious memories that she had, back to a time when life was good, and emotions were taken for granted...
