Ghost hunt stories

Case 2

Chapter 10

We were all standing in front of the trees, with Ayako a little forward than us. Ayako go toward the tree and put her hand on the trunk. Then after few second, smile and stay back.

She began her ritual and the spirit tree come out, he look around, spot Ayako and smile, she bow a little still concentrate on her ritual, then the spirit saw me and I bow to the waist when I stand back straight, I have few amused eyes on me and the spirit wave a little and disappears.

We all heard Ayako humble prayer, then she took the tree bough with the bell, and swing it around, awhile saying the nine words and at each word the bell ring. Masako and I both saw the ghost coming and slowing glow yellow until he touch the bell and he disappears then we saw Yume come toward us, she stop in front of me and smile "Thanks". I nodded and smile. She disappears too at the ninth words. The ritual was finish, the bell fell down in a last ringing and everyone here feel the peaceful air that was surrounding us.

I saw Naru looking at Masako for confirmation and she nodded. I saw him turn around and leave us behind and Lin follow him.

I heard Bou-san snicker and saw him walk toward Ayako. When he was few feet away he say "Congratulate! It's the first time that we have a earth ghost" He smirk and add " Try not believe that all our next case will be about earth ghost like when we first began to work with SPR" Masako snickers to in her sleeve and John smile embarrassed. Yasu look confused and I mouth him that I'll tell him later.

We heard a cry of pain and we saw Bou-san on the floor with two bulbe on his head. Ayako pass us fulming and go change. I go to Bou-san " Really? You should have know. I'll give you an advise, if you want to flirt with Ayako, you should stop harassing her and belittle her. Trust me, it didn't word really well" I sadly say. I saw a hint of pink on his cheek. Pleased, I stood up.

Masako, John, Yasu and I leave Bou-san behind. While walking I explain the start of SPR at Yasu and when we arrived at the base, Yasu was laughing uncontrolled. I saw Lin download the monitor and I quickly go help him, leaving a laughing Yasu, a giggling Masako and an ambarrassed John who was holding up Yasu.

When most of the download was done, Bou-san come in. I saw him give a camera to Naru and come finish shift the monitor with us.

After that everything was in the van, we all rest in base, Yasu and Bou-san was joking about the debut of SPR, John and Masako were talking, Lin was with his laptop and Naru was watching the exorcism. I notice that Ayako wasn't here, I stand up and leave the base for the bathroom, Ayako was using.

I knock and surprising the door wasn't closed. I slowly enter and saw Ayako sitting on the bath, her head in her hands. I completely enter and close the door behind me. I go toward Ayako and put my hand on her shoulder. She jumps and she look at me. I saw her eyes bloody red and her mascara rolling down.

I made her stand up and put away her make and the trail of black on her cheek. I heard her sniff "Ayako, please, stop crying" She hiccups but nods, I smile at her "He's just a kid, he was teasing you. He didn't know how to flirt" The red's hair woman straight her back trying to grab on hold of herself. I look eyes with her and add "We are really unlucky with man, the one we love just ignore us, belittle us, criticism us and so on" I saw Ayako nod then she quickly look at me with wide eyes and try to deny.

I just shook my head. Ayako sigh "sorry" I smile at her and give her, her mascara, she apply it and look at me determined " I will make him fell in love with me" I cheer, she look sympathetic at me. "You should do it to" I shook my head " The last time, it didn't really work" I say with a pain face.

After a tense silence, I saw Ayako smirk at me, I look at her confused and she grab her phone and pass a call, I heard her order "in the bathroom now!" and she hung up. I smile amuse and was going to ask her who she call when Yasu come in panting.

He put his arms up and cry "please, don't hit me. I swear, I didn't laugh or not so much, please don't kill me" I snickers and Ayako angrily sighs " close the door, I won't hit you, You're not here for that" Yasu let his arms fall, look up surprise but close the door behind him a little hesitant, he finally ask "What can I do for you?" Ayako smirks " I think Mai's need help" Yasu nod confuse and I was to, I'm fine, why would I need help? Then Ayako evily smirk " Naru need to be teach a lesson" This time Yasu smirk too.

And I , horrify, try to escape not wanting to be drag in this plan. I was grab and forcefully drag in the bathroom that I had just leave.

I saw the door closing and I yell an horrify "no!" which echo in the all house. It was follow by two evil laugh.
