Pikatwig: Chapter 2 is being worked on just as we finished the first chapter.

Muk854: We are making some good progress so far, hope we can keep this up.

Pikatwig: Yep.

Jibanyan: This is gonna be fun!

Pikatwig: Oh, hey.

Muk854: How did he get in here?

Jibanyan: I am an actor.

Muk854: Fair point.

Komasan: Oh mah swirls… sorry fer botherin' ya two.

Blizzaria: But it's fun to be here.

Pikatwig: This is fairly normal fair for me.

Muk854: For you, but this is just like how they take the intros from me in my story 'Katie's New Friends.'

Pikachu: Pika…

Pikatwig: Oh, hi.

*Pikachu and Jibanyan glared at each-other for a moment, before Pikachu walked off*

Muk854: This isn't even a Pokemon story.

Pikatwig: Trust me when I say, these people come and go whenever they please.

Muk854: Alright.

Jibanyan: ...that mouse…

Pikatwig: They did make a Pikachu spoof in Yo-Kai Watch 2.

Muk854: Wait what?

Pikatwig: Yep.

Muk854: Oh wow.

Pikatwig: Anyway… let's move on…

Disclaimers: Yo-Kai Watch belongs to Level-5 and its other owners.


Nate walked into his room with a worried expression, not even noticing the still on-going Yo-Kai party. That was before a cup full of punch fell on him, making him turn to see Roughraff, Signibble, Peckpocket and Pandle standing there.

"My bad, brah," Roughraff responded.

"ALL OF YOU OUT! NOW!" Nate yelled in anger. Everyone stood there taking the threat as an empty one, until they saw Nate get the fan out making them run out as fast as they could.

When it cleared out, only Jibanyan and Whisper stood there.

"...is something the matter, Nate?" Whisper inquired.

"Yes something's the matter, while you two were here having a party... Katie got kidnapped!" Nate yelled in anger.

"...you told us to stay here and that you didyn't care what we did," Jibanyan reminded.

"Eh, true that," Nate sighed as he tossed the cup off of his head and into his garbage, "I'm going to bed. You two better have this room cleaned up by the time I wake up," he said before he laid down to sleep.


"Nate… help me…" Katie's voice called out. She was within a dark void with little to no light, she felt like it was closing in on her, "Please… help me…"


"KATIE!" Nate yelled as he woke up with a start, presently horrified.

"Oh come on, Nyate! You were only asleep an hour!" Jibanyan whinned.

"...sorry…" Nate apologized, watching as Jibanyan sweeped up some confetti while Whisper stored the food within his head, "...I'm just… worried,"

"What happened to Katie?" Whisper asked, "Did she trip and scrape her knee or something?"

"YOU IDIOT, WERE YOU NOT LISTENING TO ME EARLIER?!" Nate shouted as he bonked Whisper on the head, causing the punch bowl to come falling out of Whisper's mouth, "Somebody kidnapped Katie!"

"Was it a Yo-Kai?" Jibanyan asked.

"I don't know," Nate shrugged as his eyes widened and he buried his face into his hands, "I am such an idiot! I didn't scan for Yo-Kai!"

"Yes, that was quite idiotic of you Nate," Whisper informed picking up the bowl.

"Excuse me for being afraid I would get kidnapped too!" Nate growled.

"Nyate, calm down," Jibanyan told him, "Being upset won't help anything,"

"You're right, sorry," Nate said apologetically, "But we need to get back up there so I can scan for anything that could tell us what happened."

A soft knock came at the door, making Nate turn to open it up and see his mom.

"Everything alright? I heard you scream,"

"Yeah I'm fine sorry, just had a nightmare,"

Mrs. Adams then proceeded to pull Nate into a comforting hug "Everything will be fine Nate, they'll find Katie," she said softly.

Nate hugged her back, tears dripping down from his face.


Katie was struggling to get free from the chains that were holding her to the wall and also trying to get the gag off of her. She couldn't tell where her captor was, or what they were planning. Suddenly, all of her thoughts came to a total stop as she was suddenly knocked out cold.


The next day at Springdale Elementary, Katie's kidnapping was the topic of everyone's mind, teachers and students alike. Nate stared at the ground as he walked to class, but his train of thought was interrupted when Bear and Eddie came up to him.

"Hey Nate, how have you been taking Katie's disappearance?" Eddie asked.

Nate was silent, but his lack of words gave Eddie the answer he needed.

"There are some people who think you may be in cahoots with this kidnapper," Bear informed.

"What? Why?!" Nate demanded to know.

"Because you have a crush on her,"

"I do not!"

"Dude, please, the only person who doesn't know you like Katie is… Katie herself," Eddie added.

Nate was silent for a bit, "Well what does that have to do with me being involved with her kidnapping?"

"So you'd have her to yourself," Bear stated, "But we don't believe that's true."

"You're not bright enough to come up with something like that,"

"...I don't know if I should be insulted or thankful…" Nate sighed as he walked off.


-Attention all students, attention all students,- the principal's voice announced via the intercom over the school, -For your own safety, nobody is allowed near Mt. Wildwood without an adult. I repeat, nobody is allowed near Mt. Wildwood without an adult. Thank you.- the intercom ended.

All the students were talking to each other about what was announced before the teacher came in. "Alright everyone settle down," he said as he waited for the class to calm down, "Now I'm sure you are all aware of Katie's kidnapping, but we ask you to try not to get involved in this. We don't want any of you going missing yourselves. If anybody needs to talk, the counselor's doors are always opened,"

The class nodded in response as class begun, with Nate simply sitting and doing his work without looking up from his desk.

"Nyate, are you ok?" Jibanyan asked, but Nate didn't say anything in response to the nekomata Yo-Kai, "Come on Nyate, we're worried about you." Nate continued to ignore him and just continue with what he was doing.


Nate opened up his locker to get his history book, when a note came tumbling out and landed on the ground. He picked it up and saw what it read.

'Give Katie back, you kidnapper.'

Nate simply tossed it into the recycling bin and headed back for his class.

"Nate, are you okay?" Whisper asked.

"Shut up, I'm not in the mood,"

"Nate, I know you're upset about Katie, but you can't just ignore us forever,"

"How do you think I should react? I was the guy up on the mountain with Katie last night, and now people think I kidnapped her!" Nate informed, as Jibanyan retrieved the note from the recycling bin, Nate sighing as he took out a Yo-Kai Medal, "Yo-Kai Medal, do your thing,"

=LADIES & GENTLEMEN, NOW SUMMONING… SHADY!=

=CREEPY AND TRICKY, GREEDY TOO, THEY'RE SHADY!=

"Dimmy…"

Nate turned to the small purple Yo-Kai, "Can you inspirit me? Please?"

"You knyow, I nyever noticed how similar Nyate and Dimmy sounded…" Jibanyan noted.


Nate sat in class, now inspirited by Dimmy, and his change of attitude was noticed by his teacher.

"Hey Nate… can we speak outside for a moment?" he requested.

"Ok…" Nate nodded as Jibanyan and Whisper had to help him get out of his desk and go outside of his class, "Yes?"

"Are you feeling okay?" Mr. Johnson asked.

"I'm alright, I'm alright, don't worry about me," Nate responded.

"I am worried," he told Nate.

"Everything is fine Mr. Johnson,"

"Well if you say so, but I still think you should go to the counselor since you were closer to Katie than the other students," he requested.

Seeing as there was nothing else to do, Nate simply nodded and headed towards the counselor's office. As Nate walked, Whisper bonked Dimmy on the head and knocked the inspiritment out of him.

"Nate you can't keep this up, you need to talk to us eventually," Whisper informed.


Later that day, Nate was sitting alone and about to pull out his lunch, when Bear and Eddie dragged him out of his seat and behind a corner.

"Uh… guys, what's wrong?" Nate asked.

"These," Eddie informed, handing Nate several paper notes, "All of these people are assuming you're the guilty party,"

"And we're your accomplices," Bear added.

"Ok this is getting out of hand, accusing me was bad enough but now they're accusing you guys," Nate groaned, as he took the notes and headed back for the counselor.


"Nate, what are you doing home early?" Mrs. Adams asked, with Nate handing her a note, "'Due to threats given to your son by the other students, we are suggesting that Nate stays home until Katie returns'. ...threats?"

"Some of Katie's friends assumed I was the one who took Katie captive,"

"Well that's ridiculous, I know that you wouldn't do that to her. I'm going to talk to their parents about this," she said angrily.

"Don't bother mom, it'll just make the situation even worse. They'll probably think you and dad are involved as well, they assumed Bear and Eddie were my 'accomplices' or some junk like that," Nate sighed, heading up to his room.

His mother had a look of total disbelief, "He's really taking this hard, I hope that he feels better soon."


Jibanyan watched as Nate just read a mystery book, "Hey Nyate, what are you reading?" he asked.

"Mystery novel… I need to gauge what to do. This could help me find Katie."

"But weren't you told not to get involved in this, I'm sure the police can handle it," Whisper stated.

"What if it was a Yo-Kai who did it? They don't have the skills to find her," Nate informed.

"Well, luckily for us, we know two ex-police officers," Whisper smiled.

"Is that what you were doing with your off time that one week?" Jibanyan asked.

"Unfortunately, my protege didn't respect me at all, and yet he somehow solved all the crimes," Whisper grumbled before clearing his throat, "We were members of Springdale Five-Yo!"

"How did they see you?" Jibanyan asked.

"Let's not worry about that part," Whisper shrugged as he flipped through the Medallium and handed Nate the Medal for Komasan, "Summon in my partner,"

Nate took the Medal and nodded, "Come on out my friend! Calling, Komasan! Yo-Kai Medal, do your thing!"

=LADIES & GENTLEMEN, NOW SUMMONING… CHARMING!=

=CALLING OUT, SHOUTING OUT, CHARMING! HERE THEY ARE… THEY'RE CHARMING!=

"Komasan," the komainu Yo-Kai said as he looked around, "Well Ah'm fit to be tied! How'd Ah git here?!"

"I called you using the Medal… again," Nate informed, pointing to the Yo-Kai Watch U.

"Well old partner, we got a case on our hands!" Whisper informed.

"Oh… ok," Komasan nodded, "So… what do Ah do?"

"You've gotta help us find Katie," Whisper informed, "She was taken captive by… somebody,"

Komasan gave a nod, when a knock came from the door.

"I've got it," Nate informed as he opened up the door, seeing his mother was speaking to a woman with orange hair, black sunglasses over her eyes, a gray trenchcoat, and black slip on shoes, "Uh…?"

"Oh, Nate… this is Detective Jackson from the SDPD," Mrs. Adam informed.

"We just wanted to ask some questions that'll help in our investigation," the detective informed.

"Oh, alright," Nate nodded as he and his mom walked into the police car and headed off. Jibanyan quickly grabbed onto the back of the car, with Whisper dragging Komasan along with him so they could go with Nate.


Nate sat in a room with a soundproof glass with his mother in a similar room while the detective stood with three other people, a male detective in a similar garb to her, a slightly older person in a gray v-neck jacket, a red tie, similar gray pants and black shoes, and another male in a dominantly black outfit.

"So, could the kid have done this?" one of the detective asked the other male in the mainly black attire.

"It's possible. According to some of his friends, he does have a crush on Katie, so it'd make sense for him to take her away from the others to be with her," he commented.

"Yea, but you figure there'd be more of a struggle at the crime scene, plus all of the injuries he had were just minor scrapes and bruises," the male detective commented.

"I said it was possible, I didn't say I thought he did it," the other male clarified. He then glanced over to where Nate was and saw his mouth moving, "He's talking to somebody,"

"Hmm?" the older male blinked as he turned and saw Nate was indeed talking to somebody, "There's nobody else in there,"

"There are some cases where people cope with stress by talking to people who aren't there," the other male commented.

"I saw him fiddle around with that watch for a moment," Detective Jackson informed, "It could be one of those watches that let's you use it as a phone,"

"Alright… Olive, Ollet, go on and get ready to talk to the kid, see what you can find out," the older male told Detective Jackson and the male Detective.

Ollet nodded and went into the room to get Mrs. Adams and bring her to Nate.


"Guys, shut up and don't move, the police are coming in," Nate whisper to Whisper, Jibanyan and Komasan, who all nodded and quickly hid in a corner as the two Detectives walked in alongside Nate's mother, "Hello,"

"Now Nate, we need you to be completely honest, ok?" Detective Jackson informed, "We won't be able to help with this case if you aren't."

"I will," Nate said with a nod.

"So, walk us through what happened after you went home from school that day," Ollet requested.

"I was on my way home when I bumped into Katie and I saw she had a net. I asked her what it was for and she said she was going up to the mountain to catch fireflies. I asked if it was alright if I went with her and she said it was alright." Nate informed.

"So was it just you two, a group, what?" Ollet asked next.

"Just us," Nate informed, a small blush on his face.

"He came home and I said it was alright if he went, just so long as he was home before midnight," Mrs. Adams added.

"We went up about 7:35 and we stayed there until about 9:00-ish," Nate informed, "We had a small wager,"

"What would that be?"

"We caught the same number of fireflies, so whoever got one more would get a treat paid for by the loser," Nate informed, "We split up after that and that was the last I saw Katie,"

"Did you go to find her?"

"I did look for her… but I just saw her net and basket on the ground. There was this… rustling and it kept getting closer… and… and… and…" he paused, tears forming in his eyes, "I just ran for it. I was so scared…"

Mrs. Adams hugged her son to try and calm him down, as did Komasan and Jibanyan.

"Nate, it means a lot to us for you to come and explain what happened," Ollet said, "This will be very helpful to us. Thank you."

"Just… one other question," Olive informed, "Why was it you were home from school early?"

"There are kids who think he's the one who took Katie and are starting to threaten him," Mrs. Adams informed, "The counselor said it would be best if Nate stayed home until Katie has been found."

Olive gave a nod as Nate calmed down a bit and rubbed tears away from his eyes. She handed him a card with a number for the division of the Springdale Police Department, "If you need to call us about anything, like any clues you may find, just call us here, ok?"

Nate gave a nod as he and Mrs. Adams headed for home.


Nate soon got back home and was looking at a picture of himself and Katie from when they were about five or six years old, smiling softly at how Katie used to have pigtails instead of her ponytail.

"Ya alright?" Komasan asked as he sat by Nate.

"I'm a bit better… but I'm really worried about her," Nate informed.

"It's ok Nyate, she'll be alright. They'll find her," Jibanyan assured as he set up two sleeping bags, "Ok. Komasan, this white one is for you,"

"Thanks," Komasan smiled as he hopped off of Nate's bed and over to it, "Is the other one fer Komajiro?"

"No," Jibanyan informed, "Not sure if she'll be here…"

"Hey, Jibanyan… could I have your invite list?" Nate requested, "If I have it, we could narrow down who could've done it if it was a Yo-Kai,"

"Nyice thinking!" Jibanyan smiled as he got the list and handed it to Nate.


Pikatwig: And cliffhanger.

Muk854: Yep people will just have to wait and see what happens next.

Pikatwig: The Springdale Five-Yo reference is because that started airing as we started typing this up. Hey, you do get the reference in the title, right?

Muk854: Yep, it's a reference to another show called Hawaii Five-0, I sometimes watch that.

Pikatwig: I was actually born in Hawaii.

Muk854: Huh, so the reference actually fits for you I guess.

Pikatwig: 2016 seems to be the year of Hawaii love. There's Alola in Sun & Moon, there's that upcoming Disney movie Moana… both of which are coming out in the same month…

Muk854: So 2016 is the year of Hawaii, people seem to enjoy it and yet my family can't get a vacation to it for the many years we've been planning to go there.

Pikatwig: I hardly spent time in Hawaii, we left some time after I was born, so I don't remember any of it.

Muk854: Oh wow.

Pikatwig: And for those who read 'Yo-Kai Journey', there's a reference to the most recent chapter of that in the last scene.

Muk854: For those of you who are unaware, 'Yo-Kai Journey' is my story and I really hope you can check it out if you haven't.

Pikatwig: Anyhow… there is a reference with the police who spoke with Nate and his mother, but I'm not saying what it is.

Muk854: He won't even tell me.

Pikatwig: I will give a hint. The female detective's name is a variation of the name of a character in the show. The character here is 'Olive Jackson'. Think about it a bit and you may get it. Anyhow… favorite part?

Muk854: I have to say it was the part that was referencing my story, thanks for that by the way.

Pikatwig: You gave me free promotion, it's the least I could do. My favorite part is when Mrs. Adams, Jibanyan and Komasan all comforted Nate when he was crying, it was honestly really sweet.

Muk854: Wonder why Whisper didn't comfort him, he is Nate's butler.

Pikatwig: Probably just got beaten to the punch. And for those who are going to ask why Nate told the three to hide before he spoke with the police, it's so they wouldn't distract him.

Muk854: Yeah I was confused at that part until you explained so yeah.

Pikatwig: As for why people assumed Nate was the guilty party… well, it was explained by the other male with the detectives and their boss. And really… if the segment 'So-Sorree' is anything to go by, people are ready to not like Nate at the flip of a switch. Seriously, his ENTIRE class hated him by the time class ended…

Muk854: Yeah Nate really has the worst of luck, sometimes I wonder if getting the Yo-Kai Watch actually ruined his life...just saying.

Pikatwig: Who knows? Anyway… chapter over. Just Live More.

Muk854: And stay alert for the next chapter.
