DUPERBRO is very sorry for the lack of content. High school; you know how it is. Ugh. But now that summer's here, I will try to upload more. :)
But anyway, this is my first shot at something SCARY! Ooooooooohhhhhh… Plus, one of my few crossovers! Yay!
But seriously, enjoy. P.S. the first chapter will not be too scary as it will be an introductory chapter.
Chapter 1: Abduction
Six months.
Six months since they had seen their friends for the last time.
Six months since they had read a messily scrawled note lying beside a rotting corpse.
Six months since they had touched a dried-up, lifeless body part.
Six months since the Sachiko-Ever-After charm.
Six months since the nightmare had ended.
Six months since hearing the name 'Sachiko.'
Six months since Heavenly Host.
Today marked the six-month anniversary of their escape from that hell. But the small group of friends tried their best to keep the thought out of their minds. But the constant reminders of their unknown agony kept popping up in their daily lives. The empty desks, the vacant lockers, the blacked-out photos. They would never be able to forget.
Every day after school, the small group of friends sat around home plate at their school baseball field. Today was no different. Satoshi walked over with Yuka, who got out of school earlier than him and waited by his locker every day for him. Naomi was usually there after them. Yoshiki usually showed up later than the rest, but Ayumi was always last, as she had plenty of class rep jobs that needed to be done. When they were all there, they would either sit there and discuss things or go somewhere else and discuss things. After all, they needed to stick together; they were the only ones who understood each other's pain.
But today, something was different. A cloud hung over the heads of the group and none of them liked it. Their after-school meeting was quieter than usual. Once they were all there, they all sat without saying a word for what felt like an eternity. Finally, Yoshiki broke the silence. "So… uh… today's…"
Satoshi looked at him crossly. "Honestly, Yoshiki, it's best if we just try to ignore it." The blonde nodded and looked at the dirt.
More silence.
Soon they needed to go to their homes, and bid each other farewell. Yuka took hold of Satoshi's arm as they walked in the direction of their quiet suburban home. Yuka looked at her onii-chan worriedly. He was quieter and more serious than usual, and she didn't like it. But she didn't know what to say to him, so she just kept close to his side, frowning just in the slightest. Satoshi looked at her and smiled, ruffling his hand through her short hair. She smiled slightly, too.
When they were just a few blocks away from their house, Satoshi felt a chill run down his spine. He felt like someone was watching him. He turned his head from side to side, looking to see if someone was around.
Nobody to be seen. He shrugged it off as paranoia and continued toward his house. It was dark and empty in his house when they arrived. His parents weren't home yet; they worked late during the weekdays. When he opened the door and let Yuka skip inside, he felt that sensation again. He looked back outside and thoroughly looked around to see if anyone was looking his way. Not a soul to be seen.
He flicked on the lights as he made his way to his room. Upon reaching it, he plopped down on his bed and pulled out a book. After a few minutes, he was interrupted by Yuka entering his room through the door connecting their rooms. She looked scared. "O-onii-chan…" She said nervously. Satoshi looked up from his book and replied, "Yeah? What is it, Yuka?"
She was shivering a little. "I… I heard something in my closet… I'm scared…" She seemed very scared, and Satoshi couldn't just tell her so shake it off. He got up and walked into her room, smiling at her as he walked toward her closet. "Don't worry, Yuka. I'm sure it was just a coat hanger falling or something." He opened her closet and looked at her, smiling. "See? Nothing to…" But he was interrupted by her screaming in terror. His eyes snapped open as he looked in her closet.
Inside was a tall, muscular Caucasian man dressed in a completely black dress suit and tie, even topping off the look with dark shades. He looked like something out of Men in Black. Before Satoshi could react, the man leapt from the closet and tackled Satoshi to the ground. The poor boy felt like he'd been hit by a dump truck. The man raised his fists and delivered a right-left combo to Satoshi's face. Satoshi's head exploded with pain as his vision went blurry. His ears erupted with a high-pitched ringing, muffling his ability to hear anything around him. He felt a trickle of blood flowing from his nose onto his face.
His face fell to the side and he saw Yuka, standing there in horror, apparently screaming his name. However, he couldn't hear her due to the ringing in his ears. Through the blurry vision he now had, he could just make out the hazy depiction of a man similar to his assailant grab Yuka and press a cloth to her nose. He barely heard her muffled screams before she was silent, her body becoming limp in the giant man's arms. He thought to himself, No… Yuka… Dazed still, he turned to look at the large man who was pinning him down just in time to see the black-clad man inject a syringe full of turquoise, transparent liquid into his left arm, injecting the whole shot of the liquid into him. Satoshi became even more lightheaded as he drifted off into unconsciousness.
Satoshi's assailant got up and stuck the empty syringe into his pants pocket. He looked at his partner, who nodded. Closet man took a walkie-talkie off of his belt and turned it on. He engaged speak mode and said, "Agent Delta-Echo-Alpha-Delta and Agent Delta-Alpha-Romeo-Kilo to base. The Mochida pair has been neutralized. Both unconscious, one with injuries to the head. May need medical attention once delivered. Heading back now. Over," he said into the walkie-talkie.
After a moment's wait, a man's crackling voice came over the talkie. "Excellent," he said in a deep voice. "Everything going accordingly. Any witnesses?" Pressing the button again, the man replied, "Negative. Don't worry, nobody'll know we were ever here." The voice replied, "Perfect." Then, not to closet man, he spoke, "Base to agents Bravo-Lima-Oscar-Oscar-Delta, Kilo-India-Lima-Lima, and Mike-India-November-Delta; do you copy? Status report. Over."
More seconds of silence rolled over the line before a new voice, a woman's voice, came over the receiver. "Agent Kilo-India-Lima-Lima to base. Everything's fine over here. Nakashima has been neutralized. No injuries or witnesses. Might be a little late back after cleaning up the place. Over." A moment after him, a third, raspier voice, possibly that of a black man, spoke: "Agent Mike-India-November-Delta to base. I'm here. Kishinuma is down. No witnesses, but damn that kid can fight. We may both need some medical attention upon returning. Over."
After a longer silence, 'base' spoke again, "Bravo-Lima-Oscar-Oscar-Delta, do you copy? Status repo-" The man was interrupted by the exhausted gasps of another man. "*Gasp* *Wheeze* B-Bravo-Lima-Oscar-Oscar-Delta here. S-sorry about that; the Shinozaki was a runner for a minute there, but I got her. No witnesses or injuries to the subject. Should be back in a jiff. Over."
The voice from base spoke again, "Very well. Nicely done, agents. Return to base immediately for subject delivery, but make sure you are not spotted or followed. Expect nothing but honesty in the performance reviews of your jobs here." After this was said, the line went silent. Closet man clipped the talkie back onto his belt and turned to his partner. "Let's hurry up; the parents could arrive at any moment." His partner nodded, and after cleaning up the mess to make it seem as if nothing had happened, they left with the limp bodies of Satoshi and Yuka under the cover of the shadows.
