Lonely: Behold the chapter 5.
They slowly made their way to Koenma's. Cassie was distracted. Very. She didn't know what she'd do when she got there. Besides, she wasn't even sure Koenma did that to Mel. But her heart did.
The large doors stood before Cassie and Beth. Cass loaded her gun, and Beth looked around nervously.
"Well, c'mon…." Cassie said quietly, and they walked in.
The lights went out, suddenly. "So, you came back, kitsune." The teenaged voice of Koenma said. She sensed he was grinning.
"You killed Mel." She said in a deadly tone.
"Exactly." He said, smirking. He suddenly appeared, a lust of blood in his eyes. "Just like I'll kill you." He whispered.
"No, you WON'T!!!!" Cassie screamed, and quickly brought her handgun to Koenma's head, and pulled the trigger.
Koenma lie dead on the floor. Cassie trembled. In front of Cassie, Beth stood, rather pleased. The cat walked over to Koenma's limp body. There, around his neck was a charm that went to Mel's bracelet. It was the ankh sign of life. Beth got the chain bracelet off, and worked the charm on, and slipped it over her neck.
"You….You're…." Cassie stammered.
Beth grinned, and slowly winked.
Reikai disappeared.

In Mel's hollowed out tree house, Mel sat on her couch beside Jin and Cassie sat in an easy chair near Kurama. "I'm telling you, Mel! This was the weirdest dream ever! You died, and…" Cassie told Mel, Kurama, and Jin everything. But, she, Jin, and Kurama all knew.
Cassie had been told it was all a dream. It wasn't, though. All of that had happened a week ago. Cassie would never know….Although Mel nearly told her about 20 times, of course.
