Kinda weird... chappy, belonging to me. Whatever.

Enjoy!

"Yuki Kanno?" asked Rei, in front of a little ghost of a girl with pigtails and an eye missing. This one looked up.

"Here… Your tongue!" shouted Kozakura, handing the bag of hemp. Yuki's valid eye widened as she took the bag.

"Thank you so much!" she whispered. Kozakura then rummaged through his bag, extirpating the bottle containing the eyes.

"Our friend… told us… you might want to have other body part that you lack… Uhm… Like your eyes…" began Rei, not knowing what to say.

"Here an eye, anyway." finished the black-haired boy, handing the open bottle.

Yuki smiled and grabbed an eyeball.

"Thanks you so much!" exclaimed the little girl. "Uhm… Do you… want me to bring you back?"

"Back?" wondered Rei, unsure if she correctly understood.

"Where you were the moment you were transported here." Explained Yuki.

"Yuki… I… would greatly accept your suggestion but… We, or I, need to save the others as well. But if you could tell us the way out with all of them then… Or get us out at this time… I would be grateful." answered Kozakura.

"We gotta save our friends!" added Rei, determined.

Yuki smiled. "I understand… It's noble from you two to want to stay here to save them, when you could escape… I won't be able to get you out with our friends… Because in the time you find them all, I'll surely be back as a vengeful spirit, brought back by the hatred and pain this school hold within its wall…"

"Then, do you know how we could get out otherwise?" asked Rei, while Kozakura knelt beside the ghost.

"I heard… Sachiko and… Two other persons… With black hair and golden eyes… talk about a way out… Performing the charm correctly would be the way out."

"But… How do you perform it correctly?"

"Bring back the pieces together… Of the persons left, and chant 'Sachiko we beg of you' the number of participant… Plus one, for Sachiko, is the way to do it to get out." muttered Ryou Yoshizawa, who just appeared out of nowhere. "The boy with Sachiko said he wanted to write it down for his friends to find the note and leave…."

"Now, we got the way out…" muttered Kozakura. "Rei, you still have your paper scrap with you, right?"

"Yeah… And you?"

"Same. Uhm… Now, we should go… We have friends to find."

"Uhm… Do you… want to know what truly happened to us? What truly happened?" asked Yuki as Ryou nodded.

Rei extended a hand toward them. Kano would love to have the truth… Even if they hadn't found any other notes by her, or any proofs that she was still alive, Rei felt like if she needed to learn the truth on her behalf.

"Tell me."


Rei was brought somewhere else, somewhere which looked like a basement. She looked at her hand to see its transparency. She was a visitor in the past… The past where the children died.

Gulping, Rei noticed three children lined up on the floor, tightly tied by rope at the ankles and wrists. A fabric covered their eyes as they whined and cried, screaming that they wanted to get out.

The rotten man, Yoshikazu Yanagihori, who wasn't decayed at this moment, was cowering in a corner, scared.

The clacking sound of scissors echoed. Rei turned to see a little girl dressed in red, handling the scissors. She approached Ryou, who was struggling, trying to get out of his ropes. And she stabbed him, repeatedly, as he screamed. Rei rushed to his side, trying to stop the little girl to stab him… In vain. Her hands were passing through the scissors, through the little girl… Rei couldn't do anything, but watch.

When Ryou's screams stopped, the little girl in the red dress moved to Tokiko, who was screaming 'Mom!', repeatedly. Laughing creepily, the girl placed the blades of scissors on each side of her right cheek, before clacking the scissors. Tokiko screamed in pain, crying for her mom. The little girl continued, cutting the left cheek and continuing to cut all the upper part of her head, which she took in her hands to throw away, resulting in a loud squishing sound as it hit the ground.

It was now Yuki's turn as the little girl in the red dress approached her. She undo the blindfold and Yuki stared at her until… The little girl raised the scissors high, plunging them in her right eyes, turning it and shoving it as her eyeball turn in soup-like texture, dripping out of the socket.

Laughing, the little girl looked at the three children she just killed, before opening Yuki's mouth to clack the scissors on her tongue, taking it in her hand to throw it in a bag of hemp. She repeated the process with Ryou and Tokiko, also taking their name tags and putting them in front of their respective bag.

"Now, go hide them!" she ordered Yoshikazu, pointing the bags. The man nodded, his eyes full of fright.


"Rei! Rei!" shouted Kozakura as the girl opened her eyes.

"Kano was right… It wasn't Yoshikazu the killer… It was… another child…" mumbled Rei, sitting up.

Yuki nodded as Ryou looked at the floor.

"Rei! You okay?" asked Kozakura as Rei nodded.

"I'm fine… Really." She said, standing up. "The truth… Is horrible…"

"Let's go find our friends and get out of here, okay?" muttered Kozakura, taking Rei away as the spirit waved goodbye, like the duo.


"The principal's office's door… It's open…" muttered Rei.

Effectively, the door was open and voices echoed through the thin crack.

"People…?"

Slowly, they approached the door, opening it wide, to reveal two persons rummaging through the desk, shelves and others furniture.

They both had black hair and golden eyes, a girl and a boy, must likely twins.

"Did you find it, Iza-taaaaan~?"

"No! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF! I hate this!"

They seemed deep in conversation while they seek for something, yelling on both side of the room while putting disorder.

"Uhm… Hey?" said Rei, as she felt the stare of the twins on her.

"Heeeeellooooo!" sing-sang the boy, smiling.

"Goodbye!" harshly answered the girl, closing the door on Kozakura, who pushed it open, sending the girl landing on the floor. "Hey! Fuck off!" screamed the girl, trying to push him away, but in vain.

"What are you searching? We could help!" suggested Rei as the girl refused while shaking her head, the boy staying silent.

"Then, we'll find it before you!" threatened Kozakura, staring to rummage through the desk.

"NO!" screamed the girl, jumping on his back while trying to get him away. "YOU WON'T STEAL WHAT'S HERS!"

"Izaya!" shouted the boy, trying to get the girl off of Kozakura's back, who nodded at Rei to search through the desk's drawers.

She obliged, rummaging through the many paper… To find another bag of hemp, heavily stained with dried blood. Taking a deep breath, she opened the bag to see a severed tongue, dried and grey and stiffened because of the age. Rei quickly closed the bag, on the verge of puking.

There's… another child….

Suddenly, the lights were off. The twins and Kozakura had disappeared as well as the room, as she was in another, barely lit. An old man was also present.

"Every night… Every single night, the same dream. I deeply regret what I did. I can't even truly express how ashamed I am!" said the old man. He didn't seem to remark Rei's presence. "But how much are you going to make me suffer for it?! Heh heh heh… Ahahahahahaha! Oh, I understand. I get it. You're not really dead! You're just pretending. Bwahahahaha… But think of the position you're putting me in! I can't allow you to tell another living soul about what I did to you…" He then got scissors out of his pockets, clacking the edges together. "…so I'm afraid I'm going to have to fix it so you can't ever say another word again…" Then, a body appeared in front of him, to Rei's surprise. And he cut the tongue, then shoved the scissors multiple time in the corpse. "You like that? You like that?! YOU LIKE THAT?! I f I ever see you in my dreams again, I'll be back. I'll kill you as many times as it takes."


Rei was shot back in reality again.

"What did you saw? Give it back!" yelled 'Izaya', as the boy called her, trying to get back the hemp bag containing the tongue. "Give it back! Give it back! GIVE IT BACK!"
