Chapter One- Twin's Bond
"There's an island in Mexico called the doll island," Airi Taniyama said while looking at her twin sister, Mai. "Because the trees have dolls hanging from them, people say that a young girl drowned at the island, then people started to avoid the area, but a man went there for the peace and quiet, leaving behind his family. When he got there a little's girls voice told him to bring her dolls to play with and he did. Soon enough it seemed it would never be enough for her, one day he told his son, that he couldn't ignore her pleas to join her in her watery grave. That same day he was found, floating on the river, in the same spot the girl drowned in. Some say that if you bring a doll, candy and candles that the little girl will talk to you, while others say she'll drag you to your death in the spot she drowned, playing with her friends."
Airi turned off her light, while she and Mai smiled at each other. They were close since their Mum and Dad died. The only way to tell the two apart was from their hair. Mai's going to her shoulders, while Airi's went to the middle of her back.
"1."
"2."
"3," Mai said.
"4," Airi said looking at the door like she knew someone was going to say something. Mai looked at her, but she only put her finger to her lips.
"5."
"6."
Mai and Michiru started to scream, while Airi only smiled as her friend hand onto her sister's neck for dear life. The lights where soon put on and two boys stood at the doors entrance. Both of them had short midnight black hair and blue eyes. Both Mai and Airi could tell them apart, since one was truly smiling, while the other wasn't.
"Please tell me that was you," Michiru asked while putting her hands over her heart. She almost had a heart attack, while Airi just looked at her with a small smile.
"Yes," the one with the fake smile said. "Sorry I didn't any one was here and we heard your voices we were interested."
"No. It's okay, what year are you?"
"We'll be turning seventeen this year."
Mai- That's weird Airi.
Airi- I know Mai. Normal people would just say they're senior.
Mai- And?
Airi- They're up to something
Mai- Airi, can you read their minds?
Airi- Can't. Stupid mind reading abilities always coming and going. It's one big headache party.
Mai- Sorry about that sis
Mai only sighed, causing their two friends to look at them. They had almost forgotten they were there, while talking to the two cute boys. However, it seemed they were happy with staying out of the conversation.
"So what are your names, now that the 'spacy twins' have joined us?" Michiru asked while teashing about them about the fact that they spaced out a lot. Mai's checks went red and Airi just looked at the roof, where she noticed a small white glowing ball, before it vanished.
"Sorry about that, I'm Kazuyuki Shibuya," Kazuyuki said a smile on his face, while his twin just frowned slightly, after all, the girl's attention was on his brother and he could take off the fake smile. "And this is my brother Kazuya Shibuya."
Mai- Did they tell the truth about their names?
Airi- Don't like them. Lying about their own names
Mai- And?
Airi- They don't go to school, if that's what you want to know?
"So what are you two doing?" Airi asked while keeping an eye on them, she didn't trust them and Mai had always called her a walking 'lie tractor test' for her ability for picking up when people where lying, no matter how good they were at it.
"We were doing some choirs," Kazuya said while keeping an eye on the two girl's in front of him. Their glazed over, like when he and Gene talked to each other.
"We'll better continue them. Mai I want to go home."
"Airi, be nicer," Michiru said while poking her friend in the rib, while said girl just ignored it and picked up her school bag. Walking out of the room, Mai waving good-bye as she followed her sister.
Airi only wanted to leave, because she was getting a headache and talking to her sister telepathically wasn't helping, nor was the fact that she was being lied to. As the two of them walked him, Mai remembered the story about the old school house.
"Hey Airi," Mai said as they walked up the steps to their apartment, it wasn't big, but they only needed something for the two of them.
"Yes, lovely sister of mine?" Airi asked while she dropped her bag, she would do homework when she got up, she only slept for a few hours anyway.
"What do you think about them?"
"I think they're lying about something. Like their names."
"Did anything they was the truth."
"Their age."
Mai could only sigh at her sister's words. While the two of them got ready for bed. Homework was easy for them, since their parents started to teach them at an early age. That and all they did was work or do homework, when they weren't at school.
