LAST TIME

You were walking down the street towards your house when the feeling of dread welled up inside. You really didn't want to go back into the house so soon. Especially if Sankichi was so determined to have you. You'd have much rather waited outside with the guys, but you had to leave a message for your dad telling him of the cell number. You sighed and looked at the house. You were already in front of it. You reached into your pocket and pulled out your keys. You unlocked the door and let Yusuke go in first, then you, then the others trailed by Hiei. Nothing was wrong, no one was in the living room. However your answering machine light was blinking. You went over to push it and a creepy whisper, sounding eerily like the chimera guy from Full Metal Alchemist, yet more robotic was heard.

THIS TIME

Horror 6: Take Two

", don't leave me. I will have you, you are all ready mine. You can't escape me. I'm watching you right now," the whisper sounded, "You're friends can't save you, I'll take them tooooooo."

The answering machine cut off the rest of the message. You felt a cold tremor run through you. Another voice came over the phone. Someone for mommy dearest. You ignored it, Sankichi's voice, his words, still playing through your mind. You physically shook yourself and walked to the answering machine. You reset the voice message to tell your dad to call one of your friends houses. There he'd be able to get your number, that way no one else would waste your time by calling the cell. You dad would call whichever house he knew the number to. From there he'd be forwarded your cell number and he could call you.

"Let's get the hell out of here, now," you said.
"Can I get a drink first?" Yusuke asked.
You sighed, "Yeah, come on," you led them all into the kitchen. No one left behind.

You were idly staring at the floor, so you didn't see anything until you heard a collected gasp from the guys. You looked up; your kitchen and dinning room was a wash of red blood and death. You blinked, not wanting to believe what you were seeing again. You were really hoping that those images could only be seen in your room.

"G-guys…please tell me I'm not the only one who see this…" Yusuke said.

A giant, giant creature brushed his head against the ceiling and turned to everyone, half of a man's body hanging out his mouth, the intestines dangling like wet spaghetti. It chewed the body; bones crushing and grinding against teeth. Kuwabara took a step back and the creature's eye twitched at him. Yusuke swung his arm at Kuwabara.

"STAY STILL DUMBASS!" Yusuke yelled.
"Ssshh…" Kurama said.
"All of you shut the fuck up," Hiei growled through clenched teeth.

The creature had stopped chewing, its attention entirely focused on you guys. Your heart was thudding against your chest, like a frantic jackhammer drilling through bone. You didn't blink or breath. You just kept your eye on the beast. If it charged you, you were running for the door. Hell, you didn't even know why you didn't make a break for it now. You saw a flash of white and by the bathroom, leaning against the pantry door was Sankichi! He smiled at you, but remained still. He had a cordless phone in his hand and dialed some numbers quickly. The beast snapped his head to the movement. Yusuke let out a breath of air and the beast turned to you all again. You growled under your breath.
The phone rang and you jumped, the beast took a step toward you. Your mind was screaming 'RUN! RUN! RUN!' but you forced yourself to stay put. The answering machine took over and then Sankichi spoke into the phone. His creepy whisper of a voice filled the house.

"Welcome home, and friends. I do hope you like the redecorations. But enough of pleasantries, this is my pet. I'm afraid he's quite blind but he responds to motion like a hawk. He's also fast and strong, I'd love for you all to get a hands on experience," Sankichi said.
"W-wha…How come you can talk now?" you asked.
"In this realm, I cannot only move my lips, no words. This machine thing helps you to hear me. A pity what my voice translates to through it though. But worry not, you shall all hear my true voice soon. When I bring you to my realm," he smiled that perfect smile.
"How do you mean?" Hiei asked.
"Personally of course," Sankichi said and took a step forward, the monster turned to him, "Easy Beast."

The creature watched him, but made no move for him as Sankichi stepped pass him and towards your group. Your arms twitched and shook. The ogre stared at you intently, bits of bone poked out its lips. You shuddered and it took another step to you. Sankichi was half way to you.

"Fuck this!" you yelled and dashed off to the front door.
"Wait up!" Yusuke and Kuwabara yelled.

The boys ran after you. The creature bellowed and sped after you. You yelped and jiggled the door knob. You twisted it and broke out into the sinking sun, the guys spilling out after you. You turned back to the door, for sheer curiosity's sake. The beast disappeared as it took a step outside and Sankichi stood by the door. He moved his mouth and you read. You shook your head 'no' and flipped him off before taking off towards Kurama's house, following after the guys. He lived the furthest from your house and that's exactly where you wanted to be right now, far, far away from your house. You all ran full speed non-stop to his house and collapsed at his porch.

"What…the….fuck….was…that!" Yusuke huffed out.
"I…told…you," you were sprawled out on the cool stone.

The door opened and Kurama's mother stood in the doorway. She smiled down at you all.

"Hello everyone. Come on in," she smiled.

You all crawled inside. You laid out over the living room floor after slowly sliding off your shoes, Kuwabara leaned against the love seat, Kurama laid along the big couch, Hiei said in the arm chair, and Yusuke laid on the cold kitchen tile.

"Oh dear, what have you all been doing? Let me get you all some water," Shiori said and went into the kitchen.

T+W+O+

After a few minutes, you all had cold drinks of water and had finally caught your breath. You all kept your positions, except Yusuke who sat against the wall with the icy water pressed against his head. Now calmed down, you noticed that Shiori was dressed rather professionally. Of course, it came with the job she had recently gotten when you moved the neighborhood. She was a CEO of some corporation you forgot the name to.

"Shuichi, honey, I was hoping you'd come home sooner so I wouldn't have to tell you this so last minute, but I was called by the company and they want me to go Germany for a few weeks," Shiori said.
"All right, mother. That's fine," Kurama replied.
"There's food in the fridge, and money on top of the fire place if you're hungry," she said.
Kurama nodded. "Good luck, mother."
"Oh Shuichi, I hate to leave you like this."
"I'll be fine. You go ahead and do your job, I'll take care of everything while you're gone."
"Thanks, baby. Well I'll see you in a few weeks. Bye honey, bye everyone," Shiori waved good bye and headed to the door.
"Bye Mrs. Shiori, have fun in Germany, I hear they got excellent food!" you said.

Kurama got up and set his glass down. He grabbed his mom's bags and walked with her out to her car where he loaded them in the trunk. She gave him a kiss and left. Kurama waved until she was out of sight before he went back in.

"Ok…so what the hell are we gonna do now?" you asked. "I sure as hell ain't going back to that house."
"I'll let you stay with me for a bit, but we will eventually have to go back," Kurama said.
"And now Sankichi wants US!" Kuwabara said.
"Yeah, sorry about that guys," you replied.
"Don't apologize. We came with you on our own free will. But what did he say to you?" Hiei asked.
"Oh, he said I have to come back sometime," you said and shuddered, "Then he smiled and winked at me."
"He said something about bringing us to his realm, where we can hear him and shit," Yusuke said, "What do you think he meant by that?"
"I have no idea," Kurama said.
"Why won't he just leave me the hell alone! I didn't do anything to him," you said. "Why not mommy fucking dearest or her little shits! Why me!"
"That's something we'll have to find out," Kurama said.
"I don't want to. Let's just forget all about the house. Burn it down or something," you said.
"And risk setting him free?" Hiei said. "As far as we can prove, he can't leave the walls of the house. If we destroy the house, it may set him free of the bind the house has on him."
"Man this sucks major ass," you growled and threw your hands up in the air and let them fall back to your side. Your eyes widened, "Shit…tell me one of you have my cell phone."
"Like sucking a golf ball through a water hose," Yusuke added.
"You didn't, onna," Hiei said.
"Fuck," you whispered. "I did."
"Lets just get some sleep. Tomorrow two of us will have to go back to the house and get 's cell off the table, since Sankichi's early appearance stopped us from grabbing it earlier," Kurama said.
"Who two? What two?" Kuwabara asked.
"I'm one," you said.
"What! You mean you're really volunteering to go back?" Yusuke asked.
"I don't ask people to do what I won't do myself. If I don't go back, I can't ask you to," you said.
"I vote Kurama goes with her because he suggested the whole thing," Kuwabara said.
"Fine, although I'd rather not go," Kurama sighed.
"No way. I'm going," you said, determined. 'I can't believe this,' you added mentally.
"Let's go get some sleep," Yusuke said.

Everyone followed Kurama to the back rooms. He surrendered his bed for your use while he'd sleep on the recliner that he'd put in his room. Yusuke and Kuwabara would share the guest room, one on the bed, the other on the futon Kurama asked Hiei to fetch from the basement and Hiei would sleep in the living room.
You went into the bathroom, washed up and crawled into Kurama's bed while he went in to wash up. Soon after, all lights were out and everyone was situated and going to sleep.

A+R+E+

The night went by, too quick for you, and the sun was thirty minutes from rising when you woke. You knew you weren't going to be able to go back to sleep so you walked out towards the bathroom, scratching your stomach as you walked. Kurama was already awake and in the living room conversing with Hiei when you came out the bathroom and plopped down on the couch between them. You just sat there, oblivious to their stares, and stared out straight ahead. You blinked, as if waking up, and turned to look at each of them.

"Mornin'," you said.
"Not a morning person, are you?" Hiei asked.
"Never have been fond of 'em," you replied.
"Hungry?" Kurama asked.
"Never eat in the morning either. I'll have breakfast around 12 or one or something," you said.
"Do you want to get the cell now or wait until after you shower?" Kurama asked.
"Yeah," you yawned. "Lets go."

All three of you stood. Apparently, Hiei would follow to make sure nothing happened. He'd wait outside and if anything DID happen, he'd get the others and find a way to help. You wondered if anything would help if you were caught by Sankichi. Instant death, maybe, if you were lucky. But you doubted it. You all walked out the house and down the street, heading to your house of horror.

L+O+S+T+

You stared from your driveway at your house. The door was closed. Either someone was brave enough to go near it and close it, Sankichi managed to somehow do it, or the wind blew it shut. Either way, closed is closed. Kurama tapped your shoulder and you nodded. Onward rush into the hell trap, you thought. You opened the door, wide, so Hiei could still see you and ventured in. Hiei was waiting by the mailbox. Kurama was right behind you. Your cell was on the far corner of the table. You both walked in and grabbed it with no problem. Next thing you know, you hear the swift movement of air and the door slammed shut. You and Kurama whirled around and there was Sankichi leaning against the door smiling.

"Should have figured the sun didn't keep you from coming out either," you muttered.

A sound behind you made you turn your head, along with Kurama. There behind you was the beast creature! Your eyes widened more and you froze. Sankichi walked towards you, his perfect smile still bright and so out of place on the charred skin of his. You turned back to him. He let out a soundless laugh and put a hand on Kurama and your shoulder at the same time. You never even felt it. You had a brief wonder if Kurama did before you completely blacked out.

The door busted open and Hiei appeared. Sankichi disappeared with his beast and Kurama and your bodies lay on the floor. Hiei ran in and scooped you both up before he ran out again. The door slammed shut behind him and laughter rang through the air as he ran, with all his speed, to Kurama's house.
