It was an autumn day in Sakuragaoka High School, and all-girls private school in Tokyo. A girl in brown hair was have cake, along with a girl in long black hair, a girl with long blonde hair and thick eyebrows, and a small girl with long black hair done in pigtails and red ribbons. They were all wearing black blazer and pale blue skirts. The girl in brown hair said, "What a peaceful day…"

The girl in black hair sipped some tea and said, "Beautiful… We have lots of work to do, today…"

This was the Light Music Club, a school club that does music and performances. The members of this club are After School Tea Time, the school's most popular band, since formation. The girl in brown hair is Yui Hirasawa, lead guitarist of the band and lead vocalist. The girl in black hair is Mio Akiyama, bass player and alternate lead vocalist, on certain songs. The girl in the eyebrows in Tsumugi Kotobuki, the band's keyboardist and provider for the tea and cake to her friends; friends call her "Mugi" for short. Finally, the girl in pigtails is Azusa Nakano. She is the rhythm guitarist to the band, and is a year younger than the others.

Yui smiled, "I can't wait to perform soon… It'll be almost time for our final performance, together."

Azusa replied, "Yui-senpai, there's more important things than just practicing…"

Mio added, "She's right. We have to prepare for final exams, coming up."

Yui moaned, "I don't wanna study…"

Mio giggled, "That's just like you, Yui. You're so lazy…"

Yui sobbed, "But still… I hope I want to go to college with you guys… So badly… I wish I wanted this day to last forever…"

Azusa smiled, "Oh, don't be sad, senpai… How about another slice of cake?"

Mugi gave her a slice and said, "You are feeling sad, Yui. How about it?"

Yui cheered, as she regained her cheerful side, "YAY~! MUGI, YOU'RE THE GREATEST~!"

Mio sighed, "Tired to cheerful in split seconds…"

They enjoy their tea and cake, as it's their favorite activity, other than music.

Meanwhile, far away…

It was a brisk autumn day in Mizaki High School, a huge school in Japan. A girl in short blonde hair and huge breasts smiled and cheered, "Anyways, club activities will now begin~!"

She then gave a puzzled look and said, "Uhhhh… What was I going to do?"

A boy in brown hair said, "Sheesh… Akari, you're the President… You can do something about it…"

A girl in long black hair and a blue bow sighed, "What am I doing to do with you?"

Akari sobbed, "Enju, do something!"

Enju barked, "IDIOT! I did plan the schedule ahead! You guys never get the chance!"

A girl with pink hair, done in pigtails, sobbed, "Akari-senpai…"

The boy said, "Okay, you know what, how about we decide what to do for activities?"

Akari said, "Great idea! Ninja Seeking Club, we will now pitch ideas!"

This is Mizaki School's Ninja Seeking Club, also known as the Ninja Seekers. Don't let the name fooled you. This is a club formed to search for ninjas. The boys in the school are wearing black blazer and pants, while the girls wear blazers and blue plaid skirts. The blonde girl with her blazer open is Akari Hanao, the founder and President of the Ninja Seeking Club. The girl in black hair is her best friend, Enju Saion-Ji, who serves as her assistant and a member of the school's student council. The boy you see here is Kazuki Araya, co-founder of the Ninja Seeking Club, and a young boy who enrolled, a while back, in the spring. The girl in pink hair, wearing an orange cardigan, is Myu Momochi. Myu is a first-year student, as the other members are second-year students. Atop her head is a pink rabbit she named Fuu. There's also a girl in silver hair and blue eyes, wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and a black vest. That is Ricka Machiyuki. She doesn't talk much, but offers to speak. Another boy is John Spicer, a transfer student from another country. He is a tan-skinned boy with blonde hair and a grin on his face. He spoke in a Southern accent, "Well, heck, Akari… I think I have plans."

Enju glared at Johnny, "Rejected."

He sobbed, "Aw, but why? I didn't say anything!"

Ricka said, "I have idea. Training."

Kazuki said, "No… I don't think that works… Besides, I let the hag do it for us…"

Enju said, "And Lily and Cy are already running late… Even Suou-san."

A tall girl in dark blue hair, done in a low ponytail, entered the room. She said, "Sorry I'm late…"

Enju smiled, "Lily! You're late as usual!"

Lily said, "Sorry, Enju. I had to run in with some girls from another class…"

Kazuki sighed, "I forget that they treat you like a queen…"

The tall girl is Lily Fuma. She's Enju's friend, and the newest member of the Ninja Seeking Club. She is wearing her school uniform, but with her blazer draped over her shoulders, like a cape. She looked at Kazuki and asked, "How so? Most of the girls admire me… while they give you the stink face…"

Enju said, "Oh, come now. Kazuki's just being too lecherous."

Kazuki roared, "I AM NOT!"

Ricka said, "Stinkface."

Myu added, "Kazuki-senpai, you are not that stinky. I say you're too modest."

Akari laughed, "She's right."

The girls laughed, except for Kazuki. He sighed, "I deserve that…"

Oh, yes. There was one other girl left out in the club, but I'll save that for later on in the story. This is the everyday life of the Ninja Seekers. Not only they go around searching for ninjas, make fun activities, and solve mysteries, they go to various adventures, together. But unknown to the Student Body (and Johnny, in particular), all the members of the Ninja Seeking Club are, in fact, real-life ninjas! John Spicer is the only member of the club who is a layperson, or a normal person. But he does know everyone's identities, as ninjas, and kept it a secret, since it's a code that the ninjas follow. Akari Hanao, on the other hand, is a layperson, at first. But she's of ninja blood, like her mother, a now-retired ronin ninja.

Kazuki then asked, "Huh? Wait… Where's Yamabuki?"

Myu said, "Suou-senpai is in Comics Club. She's rather busy, she couldn't make it."

Lily sighed, "She's being a slacker, again…"

Enju said, "It can't be helped. I say we wrap up club activities, for now."

Akari said, with a smile, "Right. Since we're getting nowhere, we should head home."

As the meeting was about to adjourn, the door burst open, as a girl in dark blue hair, done in low pigtails, wearing her school uniform, with a green sweatshirt on, appeared to the others. She was ecstatic, "YOU GUYS! THIS IS SO AWESOME!"

Kazuki barked, "YOU'RE SO LATE!"

Yamabuki sobbed, "OH! You're being mean… This is a way of saying hello? You're so cold, Kazuki!"

He barked, "Oh, shut up!"

This is Yamabuki Suou, another member of the Ninja Seekers. She is a comic book artist and an inspiring cosplay expert. She, too, like the others, is a ninja, as well. But there is little about her ninja style.

"Cy and I found something extraordinary!" She held up a newspaper print and cried, "This is pure gold! Another mystery!"

He read the article, and then gasped, "This is-!"

Back in Sakuragaoka, a girl in light brown hair, with her bangs slicked back, wearing a headband, cried out, "EVERYONE! Get this!"

Mio said, "Oh, you came, Ritsu."

Ritsu said, "Yeah, sorry I'm late. But I have the utmost important news!"

She slammed the newspaper print down and said, "This is where we'll go, for our weekend!"

The girls were amazed, as Mio gasped in fear, "HUH? Ri-ri-r-i-ri-ri-ri-Ritsu! You don't mean-?"

Ritsu nodded, as she smirked, "Oh, yeah…"

This is Ritsu Tainaka, the founder and President of the revived Light Music Club, and the drummer to After School Tea Time. She is Mio's best friend.

Ritsu explained, "This is so golden… We have to check it out!"

Mugi read the article, "Abandoned school appears to be haunted. Witnesses believe that old closed-down school is haunted by specters from another world. The school was scheduled to be due for demolition, last week, but was cancelled, one the workers mysteriously disappeared."

Mio shivered, "A… haunted… … … school?"

Azusa asked, "The school's been closed, in decades… Why do we have to go there?"

Ritsu smirked, "I have a feeling it's all fake. In fact, I believe that it's all a ploy… Maybe someone is trying to protect the school from closing…"

Azusa said, "Maybe someone is protecting the school from being torn down. Whoever it is, it might be a faker."

Azusa sat down and sighed, "Forget it… It's really nothing…"

Yui giggled, "I'd love to find out more! Ricchan! Let's go there!"

Mio gasped in shock, as Mugi cheered, "ME, TOO~!"

Mio shrieked, "HUUUUUUUUUH?"

Azusa said, "Uh, wait… Are you sure?"

Mio pleaded, "Azusa… Thank you…"

Yui hugged Azusa and sobbed, "Aw, Azu-nyan! Don't abandon us!"

Mio sniffled, "I don't want to go…"

Ritsu smirked, "Since Mio and Azusa say NO, the majority is in favor of going to this abandoned school, this weekend!"

Yui & Mugi cheered, "YAY!"

Mio dropped her head and sobbed, "Why?"

Azusa said, "uh… I never said…"

Back in Mizaki High, Enju put her foot down and shouted, "NO WAY!"

They read the article, as Kazuki raised his hand and said, "Second that motion! Yamabuki, is this one of your pranks, again?"

Yamabuki was shocked, as Myu said, "No, she's right. I hope to learn more about this school… and why the school was closed down, due to being haunted…"

Kazuki read the article, "It says here that the school is haunted, because few students enrolled here were killed mysteriously… "

Lily continued, "About 30 high school students disappeared, over the past fifteen years, since the school closed down… And more people vanished, including construction workers, who plan to tear the building down, from the inside. Even in broad daylight, too. It's rather odd…"

Kazuki thought, "It can't be… I doubt it's someone we know…"

Akari shivered, "Oh, wow… Now I don't want to go…"

Enju grinned, "Yes!"

Ricka cringed in fear, "Ghosts? Ungh…"

She trembled, as she spoke, "Ghosts… scary… Haunted school…"

Kazuki thought, "I forgot… Ricka is scared of ghosts… Not since the last time we traversed to school, late at night, months ago."

Ricka shivered, as Myu asked, "Hey… Ricka-senpai, you okay?"

Ricka sobbed, "Hate ghosts… Scary looking…"

Enju said, "Oh, nonsense… It's just superstition! Besides, how can we tell if it's a ghost or not?"

Lily said, "Enju's right! For all we know that someone is in this building, killing innocent people, and still alive, over 15 years ago. I propose we go there, together, and investigate Miss Suou's suspicions."

Yamabuki cheered, "OH! YOU ACTUALLY LIKED IT? YAAAAAAAAAAY!"

Akari sobbed, "I don't know…"

She smiled and said, "Alright, I'm in~!"

Myu smiled, "Me, too~!"

Enju was furious, as Ricka could only gasp in horror. Johnny said, as he was bummed, "Eh, can't. I have to be up early for a new video game, coming out…"

Ricka gasped, "New game? Staying!"

Kazuki replied, "And I guess I'm out. I have to study for exams, that day."

Myu said, as she was sad, "Ricka-senpai, you don't want to come with us? I'll be with you, in case you get scared. Believe me, I can find these ghosts for you. Maybe they'll be friendly."

Ricka shivered, and then smiled, "Myu-Myu…"

She calmed down and said, "Joining you… Prove ghosts aren't real."

Kazuki thought, "Crap! Myu's looking out for her senpai. Ricka is a ninja, but she's scared, sometimes…"

Yamabuki said, "OH! We can invite Cy over to this place. She'll replace Johnny, as a tagalong."

Kazuki barked, "WAIT A MINUTE! You sure?"

Lily said, "Why? Something wrong with that?"

Enju asked, "Yeah… You ever wonder if we can go there, with an innocent girl going with us?"

Kazuki thought, as he said, "Well, yes… but she's not an innocent girl… or a girl, in general…"

Enju stated, "If you don't want to go, that's fine…"

She sighed and smiled, "Then, I decline going… But if Kazuki stays… I'll go with you guys…"

She barked out, "Besides, someone has to watch over Akari, in case she tries anything stupid!"

She glared at Yamabuki, in a cold stare, "You, too, Suou-san… You better not be tricking us…"

Yamabuki smiled, "Honest… Would I lie to you? When have I ever cause you trouble?"

Enju said, "Name three…"

Yamabuki nervously tittered, as Enju then yelled, "NAME ONE!"

Lily shouted, "Break it up! We're not going anywhere, until this is sorted out!"

Akari smiled, "So, it's settled! It'll be me, Enju, Lily-san, Ricka, Myu-Myu, Yamabuki, and Cy… going to the haunted school, alleged haunted school, this weekend."

Enju was worried, "I have a bad feeling about this…"

Lily stared at Enju and said, "Enju…"

Johnny was crying, as he was dejected, sitting in a lonely seat, "And everyone's ignoring me… just like that… Where's my harem?"

Ritsu said, "So, it's decided… This weekend, the Light Music Club is going to that creepy building, for more studies!"

Mio was balled in a corner, shaken and scared. Yui said, "OH! You know, maybe we can invite Ui and Nodoka-chan along~! The more the merrier!"

Azusa cried, "NOW WAIT! DON'T ADD ANYMORE MEMBERS TO YOU EXPEDITION, WITHOUT ASKING!"

Yui pouted, "I'm just saying…"

Azusa said, "Well… but still… I guess I can invite Ui and Jun along…"

She then added, "But no tricks! If these stories appear to be fake, we know that it was just a wild goose chase!"

Ritsu smiled and said, "Right. We leave, Friday…"

Mio shrieked, "Friday?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Ritsu held her and said, "Come on, Mio. Show some guts… I mean, uh… Show some courage. You can face this-!"

Mio wailed, "NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! I'M NOT GOING! I'M NOT! I'M NOT! I'M NOT!"

After many tries to convince her, Mio agreed to come with, but out of protest. This began a story of a horrifying adventure… in which could be their last night on Earth…
