'The house at the top of the hill is haunted.'

Following the directions from a book in the school library, Nao and her friends enter together in order to cure her fear of ghosts. One by one, they visit rooms according to the instructions, so that Nao can challenge progressively spookier legends. Nobody counts on the legends coming to life.

A piano that plays by itself. A cursed mirror that shows a monster behind you. A hallway that leads someplace different when they try to turn back. A room where blood seeps from the walls. A room that showers them with live frogs.

Rather being cured of her fear, Nao progressively becomes more terrified. Miyuki and Akane freak out along with her. Although usually timid, Yayoi meets each new haunt with gleeful excitement. Could it be that magic exists in this world?

Magic or no, it is more than Nao and the other two can take. They end up running to the front door with Yayoi and Reika following behind them. Driven by fear, they turn the handle-

Click.

Click. Click.

"Why is it locked?!" Three girls scream in terror.

"Ha ha ha! You fools will pay for invading my home!" A withered old witch wearing a green cloak appears in the hallway behind them.

Three girls scream bloody murder.

"Majorina? You live here?" Reika asks.

"I do," the witch answers with an evil grin. "And now you must all pay!"

"You're going to punish us?" Yayoi asks, still giddy.

"You're going to tie us up and tickle us?" Akane asks fearfully.

"Or shrink us to the size of bugs?" Nao asks, trembling.

"Or put us to sleep for a hundred years?" Miyuki asks.

"No, I'm going to make you clean up after yourselves."

The other four girls are too shocked to respond, but Reika simply nods. "We agree."

"Why are you agreeing?!" Nao shrieks.

"We entered her house without permission. It's only fair."

"That's right," the witch crows. "My booby traps aren't going to reset themselves! I'll have you clean up every single one you set off!"

At this, Nao begins to sweat visibly. "Even the frogs?"

"Especially the frogs!"
