The cry of a lonely star

Prologue

A convertible car parks few blocks from a school. The two riders looked at the building with a nostalgic feeling. The one on the passenger seat leans back in their seat sighing. The driver takes their hand from the steering wheel and holds tightly the hand of their company. The one in the passenger seat returned the gesture.

"It's been five years... They rebuilt the school... Even the colors are the same..." The driver says in a muffled voice.

"Yeah... They promised us that they would build a new one in another place and left the ruins so 'it' could be remembered forever..." The company says with displeasure.

"There's nothing we can do now. Let's go." The driver says, releasing the grip on her/his company hand. Then, the driver steps out of the car followed by her/his company and walk towards the school.

Xxx high school is a very traditional school around that region. Its students always get into renowned universities or gets scholarships in another country. And most importantly: their students are always cheerful, regardless the gender.

A student runs into her classroom screaming. Her face is contorted in a frightened spooky expression. Her friends surround her and try to calm her down. She is crying in despair trying to understand what happened.

"Juri-chan, what happened?" One of her friends asks.

"I guess.. I did... See... Gho..." The girl, Takahashi Juri, says between sobs.

"What? Where?!" Another friend asks. "What happened exactly?"

"Well, I... Went to the library to get an extra book for this class... And it was mysteriously empty... When I walked in.. I saw it... On that table far away from the door, near the window... And I saw two girls talking; I could hear them talking... The short girl with a big bow on her head laughed and then... The two noticed me... They smiled at me, waved their heads and went back to talking. I heard voices on the corridor and that drove my attention away. When I looked back at the table... There was nothing there... NOTHING!" The girl trembles while telling the story.

"Uh! Creepy!" One friend says.

"Mou, don't freak me out like that!" A girl says shaking Juri.

"But it did freak me...Mariyagi..." Juri says hugging Nagao Mariya, her closet friend.

"It's ok now... They did nothing to you..." Mariyagi says trying to calm her beloved friend down patting her head gently.

A cheerleader girl runs through the corridors. Her face is red full of tears. Her eyes transmit the despair and the fear she was feeling. Her body trembles and she don't even know how she is able to run. She stumbles into someone, who grabs her and shakes her gently.

"Milky! What happened to you?!" A girl asks worriedly to her fellow cheerleader Watanabe Miyuki.

"Sayanee! There were two girls in the changing room! But... But... They aren't there!" Milky says, choking on her own voice. Sayanee, or Yamamoto Sayaka, is really worried, since her friend is normally really cheerful.

"Calm down and explain, please." Sayanee asks gently. At this time, they have everyone in the corridors looking at them.

"I went to change into my cheerio uniform. Since I was taking too long, the girls left me there alone. You know, they had to meet their boyfriends... When I finally finished, I heard a noise coming from the lockers. I went to check, it could be someone who had forgotten something... But there was two girls in cheerio uniform making out. A short girl pressing a tall girl against the lockers... Her hand was under the taller girl's skirt and... And... I could hear the moans... I left an 'ah' and the short girl saw me! She smiled and winked at me! I hide my face to stop seeing that... That... That scene! And the noise was gone! I looked at the lockers again and the two were gone too!" Milky says fast.

"Oh my god!" Is everything Sayanee could say.

"And thinking back... That was the old uniform..." Milky says thoughtfully.

"The old uniform?" Sayanee widens her eyes.

"Un..." Milky nods.

"Oh..." They both feel shivers on their spine. They shake their heads to let the bad feeling go away. Then, link arms and head back to their classroom.

The girl is standing next to a closed door. She is smirking with a bright red face. But her eyes reflects a mix of amusement, surprise and fear. Her body is shaking and her hands trembles. She could feel sweat drops rolling drown her back. Another girl notices her and approaches.

"Jurina! What's up?" The girl asks a bit confused. Her friend Matsui Jurina is behaving strangely.

"Rena-chan, look inside the classroom..." Jurina says with a dry voice. The girl, Matsui Rena, looks through the tiny glass window in the door and sees an empty science laboratory room.

"It's empty." Rena says raising an eyebrow.

"Empty..? I could swear that I saw two people making out on the teacher's table..." Jurina says smiling nervously.

"There is no one inside, Jurina! Stop pulling my leg and just explain, properly." Rena asks, not sure if she will like the answer.

"Well, I was passing by and I heard... Noises... Coming from the science room. I couldn't resist, so I took a peek through the glass window, like you did. And there it was... A taller woman over a girl... They were kissing and making out and doing other things beyond it... You know... Because their clothes were open and... And.. The noises they were making... Wow... But then, they looked at me and smiled... Like... Like they wanted me to see what they were doing... I think they were teacher and student, but I've never seen them before... I stopped to look and the noises stopped too... But I didn't have the courage to look again..." When Jurina finished her story, Rena was as pale as ever.

"Maybe you.. You saw.. Gho..." Rena cannot even say.

"Ghosts?" Rena nods. "Maybe... I wonder why?..." Jurina complements.

"Attention, please!" A voice says on the speakers. "Please all the students go to the auditorium. The honor ceremony is about to start. Repeating..."

"Let's go, Jurina." Rena suggested with a smile.

"Un! By the way, Rena-chan, can you meet me at the rooftop after school? I want to tell you something." Jurina asks. Rena just nods.

After all the students gather in the auditorium, the director feels comfortable to start his speech.

"As you might know, every year, on this day we hold this honor ceremony in memory of our dearest students who parted too early. This ceremony reminds us of that fateful day, five years ago. Our school was attacked by a psychopath and only two managed to survive. Unfortunately, that maniac escaped and the police are still looking for him. This year, we have very special guests. Those two drove a long way to be here today. So, please, listen carefully what they had to say."

Two figures walks in the stage slowly. They look tired, with dark circles and skinny cheeks. Their skin is as pale as paper. They hold a serious and hard expression. With dry eyes tired from the long tearful days. They can't even smile anymore. Their lamentable state creeps out every single student in the auditorium.

Before the two say a word, the largest banner that school ever made about that delicate matter roll down on the wall. There is a photo of every victim, but seven of them are larger than the others. Three of the students in the audience gasp with wide their eyes.

"It's them!" they shout, standing up fast. They look at each other in confusion. The two on the stage look at them with curiosity and a strange shine in the eyes.
