Chapter One: The Beginning
The road was almost silent, with not even the leaves making their usual whisper. The only noise heard was from the steady thrum of a car, slowly heading its way down the road. The car was sleek, shiny from its new washing and brand new, by the gentle purr of the engine. Inside, were three girls.
Yui Komori sat behind the driver, string out of the tinted glass. She was worried – what would happen in their new house that they would be living in? Who were the people she would be staying with? So many questions swirled around in her head, and she could barely think straight. Yui glanced over to her left. She wished she could be as carefree as Karin was. Her sister was staring straight ahead, seeming to be watching where the driver was going. But Yui knew that look in her eye - she was definitely drifting off into her own world.
Aya looked to be concentrating on something outside of the car, and Yui sighed to herself. Looks like she wouldn't be able to talk to her sisters about her worries this time; not when they were so distracted with their own thoughts, anyhow. Turning her focus back to outside the window, Yui moved her hands from their clasped position, to her prayer hands. God, please hear my voice... let this visit away from Father be beneficial to me and my sisters. Even though she felt slightly uncomfortable with leaving the church walls, she knew her father wouldn't send them anywhere dangerous.
Although, she doubted Karin or Aya would care, even if they did.
'Hey, what do you think they'll be like?' Karin broke the silence, and Yui turned to her younger sister. Karin was still in her usual slouched position, but this time, her eyes were pointed steadily above herself. Aya had also turned from whatever she was staring at, instead directing her piercing gaze towards Karin. 'I'm not sure, but I hope they will be good, Christian people.' Yui said, smiling at her sisters. Their Father would never dream of sending them to anywhere that wasn't a good, loving family; even if they weren't Christian, Yui wasn't one to shove religion down people's throats.
Aya snorted, crossing her legs neatly. 'I doubt they're Christian. They don''t live anywhere close to a church - in fact, they live pretty far away from the actual town itself.' Karin gasped, sitting upright.
'Wait, that means we won't get to hang in town for as long as I hoped we would!' Karin pulled a disappointed expression, making Yui laugh. 'Don't worry, Karin. I'm sure they'll let us out of the house to wonder around town for a bit.'
'I sure hope they do, or I'm rioting.' Aya said nothing, but instead nodded her head outside the window. 'Well, I hope you don't riot any time soon. We're here.' Yui leaned over at the same time as Karin, as they both peered outside of Aya's window. 'You know, you could just look out of the front window.'
'Shut up, let us see!' Yui said nothing, staring at the house with slight awe and fear. To say it was massive would be an understatement - it was massive. It looked quite old too; the bricks had a yellow colour to them, and vines were slowly consuming half of the walls. 'Damn, Dad sent us somewhere r-i-c-h to live! God, I hope they have a pool to boot!' Karin said, and Yui could almost taste the glee in her voice. 'We're definitely going to get lost in there!' Yui squeaked. She didn't have much sense of direction, and Karin had even less. Sure, Aya could be smart when she wanted to be, but she most definitely wouldn't help if they ended up going in circles.
The car was slowing down, and Yui unbuckled her seatbelt. She didn't know how long it would be until their Father came back, but she hoped she could have a good time here. He did say they were relatives of their's... 'C'mon Yui, we've got to check this place out!' Karin said, practically dragging Yui out of the car.
'S-Slow down, Karin! There's no rush to get inside!'
'Actually, there is a rush.' Aya was out of the car first, and already had her luggage in her hand, 'it looks like it'll be raining soon. Hurry up, before we get soaked.' Yui hurried to get her luggage, just as Karin was thanking their driver. 'Hey, thanks sweetheart!' Yui could hear Karin giggle, and she sighed. As soon as they were away from the church, too! 'Karin, stop trying to fuck the driver.' As Karin spluttered in mock outrage (Yui sincerely hoped that Karin wasn't trying to... do it with the driver. He was an old friend of their Father, and that would just be... odd) Yui finally got her luggage out, and soon the car was just a speck in the horizon.
Yui stared at the disappearing dot the longest, feeling an urge to call the driver back and asked to be taken back to the church. Yui sighed - she always did get homesick the easiest, and her stomach was especially churning today. Turning around, she saw that Karin and Aya were already past the gate, and walking towards the front door. Honestly, couldn't they even wait for her? 'Hey guys, wait for me!' Yui shouted, quickly approaching her sisters. Karin and Aya turned around, and Karin smirked at her. 'We were waiting for you, but you were too busy ogling at the driver to follow us!' Yui blushed - she did not like the driver! He was at least double her age (that may have been an exaggeration, but Yui wasn't going to admit anything) and he had a goatee, for crying out loud!
Once she had caught up to her sisters, light droplets of rain had already began to fall. 'Aw man, we took way too long. Let's go into the house, now. I spent way too long on my hair for it to be ruined like this!'
'Really? I didn't notice; it still looks like a cat shit in it and tried to bury it, if you asked me.'
'Ugh, I hate that you're probably right as well, goddamn bitch.'
'Please don't use the Lord's name in vain!'
Aya watched as Yui knocked on the door twice. She had to say - the house was spectacular. It was so much bigger than what she was used to, although she couldn't shake the feeling of something shrouded behind the hard walls. A deep secret, some hidden bodies, a nightmare come true... Aya felt muted amusement rise up inside her stomach. No doubt, was she and Karin going to have fun with this. Her thoughts quickly shifted back to Yui, and she smiled slightly.
Everyone thought Yui was the youngest, despite that being Karin (although, Aya couldn't blame them). Aya felt bad, as she knew how much Yui hated being away from home. It was clear that she was their Father's favourite, too, although that wasn't so difficult when Yui was competing against people like her and Karin. Even though it was never a competition... their Father never treated them any differently than each other, which Aya was glad about.
'Um, hello? Is anyone home?' Yui called out, and Aya sighed. The rain was really starting to pick up, as well. Were they really not home? 'This is a terrible time to go grocery shopping, I must say...' Aya murmured. Karin didn't seem all that pleased with the outcome either, and her hair really was getting in a bad state. Aya was only joking before, but now it really did look like something had shit in it. 'How rude of them, to leave three fair maidens to stand by themselves in the cold!'
'And in the rain,' Aya offered. She hated rain as much as the next person.
'And in the rain, too! Despicable!' Karin walked over to the door, and Aya braced herself. Karin was none too gentle when trying to get her way. 'Oi, open up this door or-' The three stared as the door swung open. 'Oh... um, thanks?' Karin tried, looking up. Aya looked up to, and raised an eyebrow. There was nobody there - just like a bad horror movie, the door had opened by itself. 'This is a bit creepy, guys...' Yui said, taking a step back from the door.
Karin kept going forward like a trainwreck, even though she was clearly spooked too. Aya shook her head, staying behind with Yui. She wasn't prepared to die today, in both body and mind. Karin turned around, shooting Aya a betrayed look. Aya looked onward, ready to warn her sister if anything popped out from the darkness. 'Aren't you going to come with me? I mean, I get Yui, but you too?' Ignoring Yui's indignant replies, Aya shook her head and motioned for Karin to keep walking. 'Nuh-uh, not today buddy. Look, when you're taken into the darkness or some shit like that, I'm taking Yui and we're booking it out of here.'
'You're not going to save me? And also, why am I the guinea pig here?'
Aya stared at Karin, her expression carefully blank. 'It's the youngest that have to go first, Karin. Now honour us, and continue walking.'
'Isn't the eldest supposed to sacrifice themselves or some shit like that?'
Yui interrupted them, her soft voice barely heard above the lightning. 'Why don't we just not go in there?' Yui said, wincing as the lightning flashed in front of her. Aya stared at her, and then back into the rain, and winced. She wasn't sure if she wanted to spend half an hour waiting in the rain for a cab. 'I don't know, Yui. It looks bad out there, and plus, it'll take forever for another cab to come and pick us up. I think our best bet is in there, no matter how scary it looks.'
Karin sighed, holding her hand out. At first, Aya didn't understand.
Aya gently grasped Karin's hand, and Karin grabbed Yui's hand with her spare one. 'Now, why don't we enter this place together?' Karin said, playful smirk just a little more genuine. Aya smiled, and then nodded. 'Right. Karin, you lead the way.'
'How the hell am I supposed to lead the way when I'm in the middle?'
'You have a point. Yui, lead the way.'
'No way!'
It was much darker in the house than Karin had expected. Sure, it had looked pretty damn spooky when she was only outside, but she was at least expecting some lights to turn on, like they did in those horror movies. But no, there was only more darkness.
'This place is really creepy,' Yui said, sucking in a light breath. Karin shivered dramatically, and turned to Yui. Pulling pranks on Yui were the funniest. 'Oh my god, I think something jut touched my leg...' Karin watched with badly concealed glee as Yui's eyes widened, and she winked at Aya when Yui turned around to question her. Aya stood still for a second, before a very noticeable shiver ran down her spine.
'I felt something too, Yui, Karin... I think there's something here...' Aya whispered, closing her eyes. Karin had to stifle a giggle as Yui pulled the two closer to her, squeezing her eyes tight. 'Oh, I knew that leaving the church was a bad idea! And also Karin, stop using the Lord's name in vain!' Karin let out a small burp of a giggle then - she loved how Yui's brain worked sometimes.
After a few seconds of them standing in a small huddle, Karin felt something pinch the side of her stomach. 'Ow!' she said, letting go of Aya's hand to rub the sore spot. At least she wasn't lying about something touching her now. Yui opened her eyes, worry clearly written in them. Now Karin felt bad for playing pranks on her, damnit. 'Karin, are you okay?'
Instead, Karin looked over to Aya, who just shook her head. Karin's blood ran a slight temperature cooler. 'Wait a minute... were you two playing a prank on me?' Yui said indignantly, and Karin flashed her a grin. 'Aw, you found us out!'
'Sometimes I really don't like you two...'
Karin's grin faded as Yui pouted at her, but then she stared at Aya. 'Are you lying about not pinching me, too?' Aya once again shook her head, already making her way towards the door (dragging Karin and Yui along with her as she did). 'Yeah, I definitely didn't pinch you. To be honest, I think I'll have better chance with standing outside in the rain than being in here.'
Karin sighed. She really didn't want her hair to get messier than it already was - she had peeked at her reflection in the window and couldn't help but agree with Aya - but she also didn't want to spend anymore time than necessary in the creepy-ass mansion. 'Yeah, I'm gonna agree with you on that one Aya. Yui, you still have your cross necklace, right?'
Yui nodded, and Karin noticed the gleam of the silvery-pink metal against her neck. 'Good. Because I didn't bring mine.'
'What?'
'And neither did Aya, either. So you can't just blame me - I was influenced by my big sis!' Karin grinned toothily at Aya, who just rolled her eyes at her. 'How could you not bring your necklaces! Father gave those to us with the instructions to always have them on your body, remember?' Yui berated, fixing Karin and Aya with a stern stare; somehow at the same time, too.
Karin shrugged. 'Well, there were plenty of things Dad told us not to do that I still did. Remember David about two years ago, when we had that big celebration at the church? Yeah, we also had a celebration, but alone, when everyone had left-'
'I don't want to hear it!' Karin laughed out loud, drinking in Yui's embarrassed face. 'It's so funny to wind you up, Yui.'
'AS funny as it might be, I think we've run into a dilemma,' Aya turned around, and lightning lit up her face once again. 'The door is locked tight.' She sighed, and Karin frowned. 'There really is some spooky ghost shit happening in this house, I was right after all.' Aya turned to face them once again, as Yui asked her what they were going to do. Karin and Aya stared at each other, and Karin felt a smirk growing on her lips. Somewhere, she heard Yui groan, 'oh no, not one of your synchronised plans hat never work again...'
'Plan B - breaking through a window.' Aya and Karin nodded at each other, and they both turned to Yui. Karin felt a little guilty that poor Yui had to be the subject of their pranks all the time, but just couldn't help herself -her sister was so naive sometimes, it was honestly quite scary. 'Since we're probably going to get cursed if we pick up a chair from this place, we're just going to have to throw you through the window Yui.' Aya stated.
That girl could be so straight-faced when she wanted to be.
Yui shook her head furiously, her blush growing ever the more stronger. 'Guys, be serious for once! What if we're actually trapped in here? Then what are we going to do?' Karin shrugged, doing another quick once-over of the room again. It was quite big, with a big staircase leading upwards, and then splitting into two. 'Guess we'll just have to camp it out Harry-Potter style under the stairs, if we really can't find our way out of this place.' Karin suggested, nodding at her brilliant plan. Aya thumped her in the back while Yui stared at her, obviously exasperated.
Like she was expecting a straight answer, honestly.
'We do have cellphones - unless you forgot yours, Karin.' Aya turned her cellphone on, its bright screen contrasting harshly against the dark setting. Karin's eyes stung from the light. 'I do have my phone, thanks very much!' A thought popped into her head, sending her into a panic. What if they didn't have WiFi? Oh sweet Jesus, Karin wondered. What if they didn't have WiFi? Karin wasn't sure if she could stay there if there wasn't any WiFi available to her, and said so to her sisters.
This earned her another smack on the back and an even bigger disapproving look form Yui. 'It doesn't matter if they don't have WiFi, they're kind enough to let us stay here in the first place!' Yui said, seeming to forget about the creepy situation they were in. 'I don't care if they're the fucking King of England or something, if they don't have WiFi I'm smashing a window and getting out of here!'
A white light appeared suddenly, and Karin looked up to see a horrifying face inches away from her own. She squealed and thrust her fist out, hitting the face square in its nose. The face... made quite a feminine noise of pain, and the realisation dawned on Karin that maybe, maybe it was Aya playing a trick on her. 'What the fuck Karin, you can't just hit everything you see,' Aya wheezed out, as Yui rushed over to help her.
Well, it served her right for trying to scare her, and Karin told her so. All she got back was a laugh.
'Well, I scared you, right?'
'Bitch I screamed to make you feel better!'
'I guess this punch was to make me feel better then.'
'Damn right it was!'
'I swear if you guys don't stop fighting right now!' Karin sighed, fixing Aya with a mock-heated glare. Yui sighed, helping Aya back to her feet. Aya held up her phone, and showed the reason why her face was looking scary (well, scarier than it usually looked. When Karin tried to tell her that, all she got was a stomp on the foot from Yui). Her flash was on, and she waved it all over the place. 'We can look around using this,' Aya said.
Karin sighed. It looked like they weren't going to go through with Plan B, or Plan Harry Potter... 'Well, looks like we'll have to split up and search around this place. If you find anyone, holler!' Aya said, already wondering off in a random direction. Yui sucked in a harsh breath, and Karin turned back to Aya. 'Oi! You trying to get us killed? Have you ever watched a horror movie before - we probably shouldn't split up!'
Aya turned around, flashing her phone under her chin again. 'That's my plan.' Without another word, she was off, letting the darkness shroud her. Karin rolled her eyes. Aya could be so dramatic when she wanted to be. Still, she didn't even know what she was looking for. Maybe a light switch? The place did look quite old fashioned, though... so probably a candle. 'Um, can we stay together, Karin? I really don't want to be going around here all alone...' Yui whispered, and Karin grinned.
Turning her flashlight on, Karin shone it above them, creating a nice light so they could properly see each other. 'Of course we can! If Aya screams, we can just bolt it towards the fastest door, got it?' When Yui shot her another 'are you serious?' look, Karin laughed. 'Not really. But seriously, if anything happens to me or Aya, or you hear a weird sound, jump though the nearest window. This place has plenty of those.' Yui smiled at Karin, turning her flashlight on. 'I'm sure it won't have to get to that point, Karin. Now, let's try and find someone who can help us, okay?'
'You don't need to. I'm right here.'
