Point Of View (POV): Taniyama Mai

~ Day 1: School ~

*Dream Open*

"...There…she was walking…through the hallway…by herself in the night of a full moon…a cold breeze was blown onto her neck!...She anxiously turn around and when she did-"

*Bell Ring*

*Dream End*

*Bell Ring* (Repeatedly)

I stretch my hands and legs like a cat, feeling relief that class has finish.

*Pause* 'What was I dreaming?'

*Deep in thought* 'Strange… It feels like it was something...really, really important and at the sometime...very terrifying,' I thought.

I get out of my seat and start to pack my textbooks and other school supplies, when I felt this feeling like someone was looking at me. I look up and saw Suzuki, staring at me in a hateful way. I never know why she hates me so much, so I ignore her and continue packing my stuff.

"Taniyama, please see me in the teacher's office. We have to discuss some things," My teacher said.

"Okay!" I reply.

After a couple of minutes later, I went to the teacher's office, and spent an hour talking to my teacher. When it was all done and well, I was released.

'That was one long lecture about my grade...' I sight.

"Oh! Taniyama-san!" A familiar female voice called my name.

I look around the hallway and found someone with two other person waving at me.

"Oh! Krista-senpai! Rin-chan! And Momo-chan! What are you guys still doing here in this time of hour?" I walk toward them.

"We should be asking you that," Krista-senpai said.

"Me and Momo-chan, was waiting for Krista-senpai to finish her student council meeting. But it took a bit longer than expected! *Sight* And your story is?" Rin-chan said.

I laugh and look at the ground feeling embarrassed. "...I get lecture for English again… Hehehe…" I said, almost to a point I was whispering.

"Huh? Again? *Frown* Oh! Hey, why don't we do the usual things we always do!" Krista-senpai said.

"You mean ghost telling like back in elementary?" Momo-chan ask.

"Exactly!"

"Let's do it!" Rin-chan agreed cheerfully.

"I'll pass… I-" I was cut off.

"Come on!" Rin-chan said.

She grab my right arm and start to pull me forward and everyone else follow-along. I try to struggle back but, I give up afterward and we continue to walk through hallway to some empty classroom. While everyone was setting everything in place, I walk up to the window and just as I look out it starts to pour really hard.

"Oh, no! I forget about my umbrella at home!" I said, finally realizing I forgot my umbrella at home.

"Don't worry! I brought two umbrellas today just in case my other one get lost. You can borrow one," Momo-chan said.

"Thank you so much, Momo-chan!"

"You are welcome!" She smile.

I smile back, trying not to show that I felt guilty. Then, at the corner of my left eye something caught my attention and I turn around to face the window to see what I saw. It was the Principal of our school. He was sheltering at the other side of the building, looking all worry. So I follow where he was gazing at and it was the abandoned building. A few seconds later, a van stop in front of the principal, two men came out of the van and walk toward the Principal. I couldn't see their face, only the tops of their umbrella. The Principal and the two gentlemen introduce to each other and start to discuss, while that happens the Principal lead them inside the school building.

"A new transfer student I bet," Rin-chan said, suddenly joining me at the window.

"I don't think so…" I said, uncertainly.

"Anyway! ...Back to the point of all this gathering!" Krista-senpai said, trying to get both of our attention.

She then smirk and held her hands out in a fist and four stripes of paper was between her thumb and index finger.

"Choose carefully, children," She said to all three of us.

We look at each other and pull one strip of paper each.

"The one who has the shortest paper strip out of the four goes first and then the next shortest go next and on!"

The line up was this: Momo-chan, Krista-senpai, Rin-chan, and lastly me. Krista-senpai turn off the light and Momo-chan begins her ghost story, then Krista-senpai, Rin-chan, and finally my turn.

*Mai telling her ghost story*

"It was late at night when a couple of students was walking home. They pass by the abandoned building and heard a cry. 'HELP ME!' A female voice screamed. The students turn around and look at the abandoned building. Searching for the female voice, in the second floor of the building they saw a female figure moving across the hallway slowly. The female figure stop walking and turn toward the window near her and look at the students outside and screamed. *High-pitch Screaming* Terrified by her, the student also scream in fear and start to run away," I took a quick breath.

"The very next morning, the students decided to report it to the school about what they show. The school decided to investigate the abandoned school building but, there wasn't any sign of anybody entering or broken-ins in the building. The school concluded that the students were imagining things and never did see anything. But the students insisted they saw a woman in white dress with a huge cut around her neck and a great amount of blood coming out from her huge cut. But still the school didn't listen," I pause.

'Help me, onee-chan…' A little child whispered to my ear.

'Huh?' I stand up and turn around.

"N-No ones t-there…" I panick, '...Or did I just imagine it?'

"Mai-chan? Are okay? Want to stop?" Momo said, looking at me all worried.

"You know what… The room is beginning to feel cold…" Krista-senpai said, laughingly.

"Maybe because Mai-chan's ghost story is scary that it might come true," Rin-chan said, jokingly.

'Help me, onee-chan… You promise me! You'll protect me! You promise!' The same little child's voice appeared again.

All of a sudden, I felt a pain right at my chest. Like my heart was being taken out of my body... My eyes begins to blur up and tears fell down on face.

"Rin…" Krista-senpai and Momo-chan look at Rin-chan all annoyed.

"Uh… Sorry, Mai-chan... No hard feeling… I was just..." Rin-chan apologized.

"Huh? N-No! It's not your fault, Rin-chan! I'll continue story!" I said, smiling.

"Okay, then," they said, not sure what to say next.

"So, the story goes on that another student was walking home late. She sneak inside the abandoned building saying she heard a boy crying. So, there she was walking through the hallway by herself in the night of a full moon. Inside the abandoned building, of the first floor, she continues to walk farther in but couldn't find the end of the hallway. Suddenly she felt a cold breeze blown onto her neck! Feeling like someone was behind her, she anxiously turn around and when she did. *Pause* 'N-No ones there,' she said, feeling relief. She turn back around and held her breath. She saw 'her', a woman in white dress walking toward her very, very slowly. The woman was looking down, hair blocking her face. But her chests and hands were all covered in red. 'I-Is that blood?!' the student said, looking terrified. The woman continues to walk toward the student and suddenly stop a couple of distance from her. She look up at the student and quietly stare at her, the student also stare back in fear. 'Her… Her face!' She said, trembling."

"Get out! If one wants to live! He will slash your heart and take it!" She said, "You will die here!"

"And then, the woman open her mouth wide-open and an annoying high pitch scream came out. The student drop to the ground and covered her ear. After a seconds later, the student look up and the woman wasn't there anymore. Not wanting to stay any longer, she run for the exit."

*Pause* "The very next morning, she didn't came to school, or the day after that day. Then, a month later, a janitor enter the abandoned school building, thought he heard something strange inside. Once he was inside the building, he start to look through each and every classroom. He found a female body- a student of the school hanging in a weird way with no heart. And…no face..." I said finally.

The room was quiet, until Krista-senpai turn on the light.

"It's getting late…. And the rain stop… for now that is," Krista-senpai said, gathering her stuff.

"You're right..." Everyone agreed.

Everyone cleaned up the classroom and left for the door.

'You're leaving me?' the little child said.

I turn around and look around the classroom again.

"Mai-chan? Are you coming?" Momo-chan ask.

"You guys should go on ahead of me… I just remembered I need to get my textbook in class. Don't worry! I'll be fine by myself," I smiled at them.

"Okay, see you tomorrow, Mai-chan!" Everyone wave at me.

I waved back. Once everyone left and gone. I went back inside the classroom and turn off the lights.

"You shouldn't be telling ghost story here, Taniyama-san…" A familiar female voice said.

I panicky turn around and it was Suzuki.

"S-Suzuki! What are you doing here?" I said.

"You… You and your friends should stop with your ghost story… Haven't you not learn to not mess with the dead? Do you know whenever a group of people gathers and tell stories, the souls of the dead will gather, too? Do you?" Suzuki said angrily.

She went inside the classroom and look around and left right away after.

'O-Okay…? W-What was that...about?' I said questionly.

I grab my bag and for the last time I look at the classroom and start to walk away. It was already night time before I know it. As I walk toward the gate, I heard a loud *Bump* near the abandoned building like something fell down. At first, I didn't really care about it. I just continue to walk toward the gate and pass through. I stop to stare at the sky for a moment because once you're in a place where you can only see the city lights, the stars won't shine bright...you won't even see them at all.

'It's a full moon tonight...' I closely observe the sky, 'Its kind of funny…in the distance of the night... The stars twinkled so brightly…' I thought.

*BOOM!* A even louder sound coming from the direction of the school. I turn around and saw a bunch of dirt clouds rising into the sky. I get all worry and decide to go back to school. I enter the school few seconds later.

'W-What is this?!' I look at the school ground.

There was dirt everywhere you see and the smell of something rotten. Then, everything turned black and went bright white.

*Mai's Dreaming*

'W-What's happening?' I closed my eyes and opened it seconds later, 'This isn't the school?! Where am I? And everything seems really...big?' I said.

"M-Mother! No! I don't want to stay here! I hated it here! I hate the people here! I want to be with mother! I can't believe you are going to leaving me here?" A familiar voice said.

'Wait, thats the little childs voice I keep hearing, isn't it?'

"I'm sorry, Lucio… Mommy, must leave you here with Uncle Kenta," An older woman's voice said.

The woman look at me.

'Wait, she isn't talking to me is she?' I thought confused.

My head suddenly look down on the ground and stare at it angrily.

'Did my head just move by itself?'

'Stupid! Stupid! Why did we even move to this stupid country anyway!' I heard the little boy said to himself.

"Kenta… Please watch after my son…" mother said to the man behind me.

"Of course, Mira. Anything for my sister-in-law," he warmly smiled.

I look up again, wanting to say something again. But before I could do anything else mother bend down to match my height and kiss my forehead.

"Be a good boy, Lucio. I will returned to get you," she whispered in my ears.

I push her away and start to run away.

"Lucio, come back!" I heard Uncle Kenta said.

I didn't turn back. I didn't care where I was going, I was so angrily that I keep running and running until I couldn't run anymore. I start to cry out loud and people start to stare at me.

"Little boy, are you okay?" A Japanese woman said to me.

'I hate Japanese people!' I said to myself.

'But I AM Japanese!,' I yell to myself, 'I don't know how I understand this kid or hear his thoughts OR being him! But I would be so glad if I wake up from this strange dream and be a girl again AND myself!' I cried.

The Japanese woman tried to reach to me but before she could do anything I run again. While I was running I found an abandon building.

'The sign says… something Ko-u-ko-u? Koukou? Could this be a old Highschool building?' I questioned.

'Hey, isn't that the abandoned building in school?' I thought.

I sneak inside and look around.

"Kimo…" A man said.

"Jiro, please… Don't- Don't!" A familiar voice screamed.

Just as when I took a peek inside the room where I heard voices… A man stab a woman with something sharp. The woman struggled to turn around and tried to run for the door but stop when she saw me.

"L-Lucio?! What are you doing here? Run away from here! Now!" She painfully screamed in Japanese.

I couldn't understand, I stand until the man inside run toward the door and grab me by the neck and thrown me toward my sister. I look at her chest and red coloring was coming out.

"Sister… Your chest is red!" I said to her.

"Run…"

"What?"

"Lucio, you heard me! Run!"

My sister run toward the man and struggled with him. I did what my sister said and run. *Boom!* I hear a thundering sound and then red things came running down my chest. I drop to the ground and saw my sisters face. I couldn't moved… I couldn't say a thing. I just watch as everything went by.

"Hey, bro! It seems you needed a bit of help," another voice said, "So what are you gonna do with her?"

I felt the man kick me in the stomach.

"I need to save 'her'. That's what I'm gonna do. This girl's heart match the data Keli needs! And this girls face I'll take it, too. To replace everything… That accident did to her and make Keli perfect!" Jiro said.

My vision slowly get darker. As I heard my sister screamed to dead.

*Black*

*End of Mai's Dream*

What's going to happened next?!
