Complete summary: Ghoul: an evil spirit that feeds on the dead. Something manifests room 113 Basement level that had now spread up to Floor 1 dorms. Squall knows from a first-hand experience a little of what Room 113 is like and expects none of them will make it out alive; however, they are ordered to explore the Basement level dorms, including 113, to prove nothing's down there. SAxSL STxIKxZD (3-some).

AN: Okay, I'm getting this out in the open NOW! The main idea and most of what happens in this story comes from another story titled Revenant. I DO NOT have permission from Revenant's writer to write this. Someone go tell on me. If the writer of Revenant wants me to take this story off the net, I will, just tell me. This story DOES have differences to Revenant (especially at the end because I didn't get past chapter 3 in Revenant.) but the main idea and some scenes and occurrences/happenings are from Revenant.

Disclaimer: I don't even own the main idea for the story in this one.

Warning: Yaoi, blood, freaky situations, death.

Squall POV

I almost wished I had accepted the Headmaster position instead of requesting to be demoted to top-rank SeeD when I had the chance. As it stands, Xu is the Headmistress and Quistis is Commander.

I sat across from Xu waiting for the others to arrive to this 'meeting.'

"Shut it, Chicken!" marked the entrance of Seifer, Zell, Irvine, and Selphie.

"Now that we're all here, let's begin. As you know, Garden has had a wave of new recruits recently. We are running out of room in the dorms quickly. As such, we have planned to open the basement dorms for use."

"Those dorms are closed… for a reason, and should remain closed." Everyone looked at me, some surprised that I had spoken, some annoyed like Xu.

"Well, there have been strange complaints coming from students in the first floor dorms."

"What do their complaints have to do with opening the basement dorms?" Xu fixed Seifer with a glare he merely smirked at.

"They complain about hearing things below them and strange drafts. A boy has even tried to kill himself last night to end it all."

"Room 113, right?" Xu stared at me in horror while I stared blankly out the window just above her head.

"How did you—?"

"Ten years ago someone took residence in Room 113 of basement level. Two years after that, two others took residence in the same room. But you already knew that didn't you? Slashed his neck, didn't he?"

"Yes. He's in a coma, but still alive. He didn't cut deep enough to hit anything vital."

"What's up with 113?" Zell looked a little unsettled.

"There was a rumor that during construction, a worker got stabbed through the neck with a beam that had slipped off its holder in the ceiling and died."

"Since then, anyone who stayed in that room has died from neck injuries. All self-induced."

"Squall. Please. Tell your information or wait until I am through talking. Besides, your information is all rumors." Seifer glared hatefully at Xu during this. Strange.

"What kind of noises?" Selphie asked.

"Several. A few students complained about wailing, some about manic laughter. Daniel, the boy who tried to kill himself, is rumored to have heard sobbing combined with joyous singing."

"Where do we come in?" Irvine sounds a little annoyed.

"You five will go and search the basement level dorms and prove nothing's down there. You'll leave in two hours; get you supplies ready, eat something, and meet in front of the B-level door. Dismissed."

"If we aren't back by morning, come get our corpses." Everyone just stared at me.

Yeah, short, yet like Revenant, still… tell me what you think, okay? The pairs are: Seifer/Squall and Selphie/Irvine/Zell (yes a three-some!) I know… bad me for starting ANOTHER fic! …Deal.
