Okay! I know I said I had to get 4 reviews but I couldn't resist! Umm… oh! Thanks to Black Water-Fox for reviewing and being an awesome beta for this chappie! Oh and please, even if you didn't like it review please because I'm getting plenty of hits but almost no reviews.

Also my friend and I own nothing except the plot, sigh as always.

Chapter three: The one who should be dead.

"Yes, I do and don't ask any questions until I finish, okay?" They both nodded with wide eyes. The girl was beautiful, there was no doubt about that, but it was another-worldly beauty, having been to other worlds, they would know.

She beckoned another girl over; this girl shared the same beauty as the first. They both had long hair, but the first was a brunette, her hair

like dark chocolate and the second was a rich golden blonde, the first

was strait haired and the second had wavy locks, they both had bangs to

frame their faces, the brunettes fell over one eye.

They were like opposites but they were so different that they looked

perfect together. Like Yin and Yang. 'I've never seen anything like

this.' Hisoka realized.

"My name is Morigamo and my companions name is Aliko. We were friends

of Halimaro. We were all very close, until Tsylamiko came. Something

wasn't right about him, he was strange, and an obvious trouble-maker. He would touch me behind Halimaro's back. Then threaten my life if I tried to tell or if I resisted." A single tear welled up in Morigamo's eye.

Aliko comforted the girl against her breast, and continued, "Morigamo

tried telling Halimaro. She wouldn't listen; he had her trapped in a web of deceit, of lies with pretty ribbons on them (1). We weren't about to be caught in it, and after Morigamo tried to warn her about Tsylamiko, she made it clear that she didn't want to see her again. I wasn't about to be trapped in Tsylamiko's web, so I backed away from her and her circle of friends. When she told Morigamo that she didn't want to ever see her again is when we knew something was wrong with this person, this person that had stolen our friend away from us." She finished her story in a whisper, barely audible.

Hearing her friend end, Morigamo wiped her eyes, and straitened up.

"Tsylamiko wasn't human, he was evil, and still is. Everything he did was wrong, completely wrong in every way. He didn't even love her! He was like a Poltergeist, draining her; she even started to act differently. True, that could be explained but, her eyes, she wasn't behind them anymore, it was scary. Even her thought process had changed something was affecting her. More than anything had before." She paused in her story as if remembering a distant time,her eyes far away. "I knew she was falling down into his trap. He

wanted to get, I don't know...a friend...ally? Someone that would give him what he wanted, needed, you know, help his cause. Halimaro was that

person."

"We don't think he picked her on his own though." Aliko stated, "He had

help. We just don't know who exactly, only the bare minimum."

At this point, both girls were close to tears.

"We knew what Halimaro was doing to herself; we tried to help" she

tried, but Aliko couldn't finish.

"She wouldn't let us." Morigamo continued, her voice was pained, yet

venomous all the same.

"As I said before we started to back away from the people she was

surrounding herself with." Aliko had tears streaming down her face, her voice shaking, "It hurt, after being with her for so long, and then having her taken away from us. It wasn't normal!" The last sentence was followed by her biting her lip and balling her fists.

Morigamo calmed her down by grabbing the other girls arm and pulling

her into a hug. They stayed like that for a moment before she let go and continued, still keeping contact with the clearly distressed girl at her side.

"Tsylamiko wasn't a good person, putting it mildly. He hid behind a

mask, and when it slipped people got hurt."

Hisoka felt pain, sorrow, and anger, righteous anger.

"Yes. I am angry. There is no need to read us, young Shinigami," Aliko

stated calmly, surmising the pair beyond belief yet again. "We, you

see, are psychic and do not lie, it would be hypocritical and unfair,

seeing as you cannot hide anything from us. We will be more careful of our shields, but this is distressing so some things may leak through."

"Though if we find a person untrustworthy we might bend the truth a

bit." Morigamo smiled weekly. "You can ask questions now if you wish." She stated seeing the shocked look on their faces.

"But-?" Hisoka started, he didn't get very far.

"No, its perfectly okay to ask. It is rare to find one true psychic in

an area, let alone two. We are a special case. We-I suppose the word

would be channel-each other. We work closely together with combined minds.

We are still individuals, but we maintain a link no matter where we are

physically. We found the connection before we ever met, everyone has

one when they are young, where else would imaginary friends come from?"

she paused and smiled wryly." But ours was not smothered by

non-understanding parents. We both came from extremely loving and artistic

families, they encouraged our imaginations to the point that the link never disintegrated. It grew stronger as years passed." She seemed satisfied with her explanation so far and continued.

"We didn't even realize we were connected to each other specifically

until we started to converse more."

Tsuzuki quirked an eyebrow.

"In our minds." Aliko said sensing his question, "The link becomes

dormant at about 5 or 6 years of age so our imaginary friends hadn't been to visit. The link starts functioning completely again when both peoples concerned are 16."

"Oh." Tsuzuki understated, and then he thought of something.

"Hey, how did you-" He tried again.

"You know of Shinigami and Meifu, so we know to. It's right at the top

of you consciousness'." Morigamo started.

"You know it, so we know it." Aliko finished. They had all the answers,

it was somewhat scary. "Wait, does that mean-?" he started feeling

insecure.

"We don't pry into the minds of people we trust." Aliko assured him. He

had been thinking of Muraki. "We've had to in the past, except it wasn't a person we trusted."

"Tsylamiko, that's how we knew that he wasn't normal at all. We had

wanted to know why he was him."

"It was like wading through sewage." Aliko shuddered at the memory and

scooted closer to her friend, who tightened the grip on her arm,

reassuring her. 'She is completely disgusted, and horrified, both of them are' Hisoka noted. So much, that they let their feelings hit Hisoka, leaking through their shields. "His mind was strange. Dark, and twisted. It wasn't his own anymore..."

"Stop." Morigamo interrupted suddenly, the Shinigami looked

questioningly at her.

"The sun is going down, we should part, or find another place to talk,

could you take us to your hotel?" she asked, knowing the answer before

they opened their mouths. "That is fine, we can talk at a later date,

and we have given you much to think about."

The partners had turned and started to walk away, knowing that the

psychics would find them again when Aliko stopped them.

"One more thing," she started, looking at her opposite beside her, she

nodded. "Tsylamiko is not human, as we have told you before," She went to go on when the girl beside her beat her to it.

"He was created. It was the man who calls himself a doctor. The one who

should be dead." She finished quietly. Then without another word both

turned and walked away, fading into the shadows, leaving the thrice

stunned Shinigami behind staring after them.
