Someone knocked on the door, Kai became his true ghost self and he walked downstairs and popped his head through the door, wondering who it could be and it was her.
"Open up! I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!"
Kai opened the door and became visible. She glared at him.
"Where is she?"
He shrugged and the older girl ran upstairs.
"HILARY ISN'T HERE!" The girl slowly went back downstairs with her arms crossed.
"I tried to stop her." The ghost shrugged again then sat on the couch watching 'Danny Phantom'. (Kai and his cartoons.. tsk tsk)
"I knew she was going to leave today, I even saw her leave! See I didn't really need to go work today, a clever excuse I thought of while watching Yokomoto, and I used Ozuma's car and like parked it near our house waiting for that little sneak to come out! But.. I feel asleep and a little while later I woke up when I heard her voice! ..She was too far off to be chased." She sighed.
"Oh well.."
"Do you know where she's going?"
"Who cares. It's stupid anyway." He scowled then Mariam crawled behind the sofa and put her head on it.
"So? I like stupid things."
"Like your boyfriend?"
"He isn't stupid.."
"She's going to the park and she's gonna go play on the swings and have a giddy ole time with her friends.." Kai said and she fell down on the ground.
"That's not stupid. Tell me what it's really gonna be."
"Hilary's going to look up somebody's death." Kai mumbled, crossing his arms.
Mariam looked at him for a while then a lightbulb shortly appeared above her head. "Really? I could've helped too! They don't even know where your files were sent to!"
"Oh well, then they'll fail."
"Do you want her to fail?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I told her not to do it but she did it anyway. She's getting herself in danger that she probably can't get out of."
Mariam smiled slyly then stood up and sat next to Kai. "You like her don't ya?"
"No."
"Denial eh? Don't worry.. love is such a mystery." She sighed happily then looked up at the ceiling. "Let's get a pet."
"A bird."
"No a little shark!"
"A bird."
"Shark!"
"You have enough fish in your pond."
"Those are all Arowana's! I want a shark fish!"
"Buy both."
"No! We all have to decide on ONE pet."
"Then we need -"
"Hilary probably wouldn't care." Mariam interrupted, tapping her chin.
"She'll wants a horse."
"YEAH RIGHT! Where'd you get that ridiculous idea?" The girl asked after she stopped laughing.
"She likes unicorns." He shrugged.
"How do you know?" Mariam looked at him suspiciously.
He shrugged again. "I saw her drawing a lot once."
"But she can't draw.." The girl mumbled to herself. Then she looked down at her stomach. "Gawd, I need to lose weight." She walked upstairs and stepped into her room.
Kai glanced at her before she left and noticed her tummy was getting a little bigger. Which seemed very strange. Her stomach was getting a little bigger.. but the rest of her body was still normal looking.. He became invisible ghost Kai and walked through her door.
"Are you okay in there?" Mariam smiled and rubbed her stomach.
The phone rang and she walked over and picked it up. "Hello? Oh hey.."
Who the hell is she talking to?'
"Yeah.. six more months.. You were there when I told him! ..No, I'm not gonna go see if its a boy or girl 'cuz I want it to be a surprise. Well.. both of you can take care of it. Yeah, I know.. and he's trying not to kill you. I'm actually quite proud of him but anyways I gotta go eat, my baby needs to be healthy ya know?"
'Baby? Whose baby..'
Her eyes widened. "Wha.. what did you say?"
'Her baby?' (No duh Kai.)
"I.. still.."
Kai raised a brow at her, where was she getting at? It's too bad Hilary wasn't here.. he could ask her about this..
NO! What was he thinking? This subject seems a little too personal and he doesn't know the beautiful brunette that well yet..
But if he didn't know her that well then why does he talk to her non-stop?
'Duh, I still love her.'
WHAT DID HE JUST THINK? This is new Kai, new Kai is a quiet cold-hearted jerk! He does not feel emotions such as love!
'I need to spend some time away from Hilary..' He thought, shaking his head.
"I'm sorry, I have to go now." Mariam hung up the phone and sighed.
The ghost walked out of the room after making sure she was doing okay not alright or great just okay. After he made sure she was, he walked out of her room and started coming up with Operation S.A.F.H. (Stay Away From Hilary)
vXv
"Yeah, sure we can go." Brooklyn yawned, he did after all spend the night here. No not in Ming-Ming's bed, in her closet.
"She wasn't talking to you but I'll have to ask my grandmother.. Oh yeah! Hilary, c'mon! She really wants to meet you!" Ming-Ming grabbed her wrist and ran out to the back. "Mama! She's here!"
"You must be Hilary.." She slowly walked up and smiled at the girl.
"Bow down." Ming-Ming mumbled to her and Hilary did so.
"Such a nice girl.. but theres no need for that. My granddaughter tells me you live in the haunted house."
Hilary sweatdropped.
"Yeah mama! Remember that Kai kid? He died there!" She said that with much enthusiasm.
"That's enough child, please go keep your friends company." The old lady smiled and Ming-Ming smiled back then left them alone.
"Tell me.. do you see his ghost?"
"Uh.. well.."
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
"Yes." She blurted out. Hilary didn't know why.. but she felt like telling the old woman her life story and what her and her friends were about to do.
"Do you know where they buried his body?"
"Why?"
"Oh.. just curious."
"Oh.. but I don't know. Um.. if you don't mind me asking, do you cast spells and things like that?"
"Yes." The old woman nodded and Hilary smiled brightly.
"Oh that's what Ming-Ming told me!"
"I like to help people. Tell me Hilary, do you and Kai.. interact?"
She shrugged. "Sometimes.."
"That's interesting, I'm sorry for taking up your time. You may go now."
"You didn't take up my time.. and thanks." Hilary walked back inside the house where her friends waited for her.
"Ready Hilary? Let's go."
vXv
Someone knocked on their gate and Mariam walked outside to open it.
"Who are you?" She asked, looking at the boy.
"Zeo. Is Hilary here?"
"You're the ex? ..She isn't here.. you can come inside and wait for her though." He followed her inside then sat down on a chair in the kitchen.
"Where is she?"
"Out with her friends." She said, going over to the counter to make some food.
"Isn't she supposed to be in school today?"
"Aren't you?"
"We have a week off." He shrugged.
"How interesting." Mariam took a sip of water. "She got suspended for a week."
"What did she do?" He asked with wide eyes.
"Her and her group beat up another group. Four against four."
"Oh.." He grinned as if he were proud. "I forgot to ask for your name.."
"Mariam."
"Nice to meet you."
"Same here.. so Hilary's told me a lot about you. She really likes ya."
"I love her, still do."
"Sorry, I didn't hear you.. what did you say?" The girl was about to grab a knife but invisible Kai's hand stopped her.
"I love her." Zeo said slowly, not hearing the warning in her voice.
"That's very cute." She smiled at him then turned back to her food, rolling her eyes. 'These kids are too young to be in love.'
"Thank you. Oh yes, Hilary's parents wanted me to give her some money. I'll just give it to you to give it to her." The boy walked up and took the money out of his pocket then handed it over to Mariam who gladly took it.
"I'll be sure to give it to her." She put it on the table, next to the food. Kai would put it in her room when Zeo wasn't looking anyway. Well he better anyway.
"So when do you think Hilary is gonna come back?"
"Not anytime soon.." She mumbled but he didn't hear her the first time. "I hope it's soon."
"Me too." Zeo said.
Then she grabbed the plates full of food and gave it to Zeo. "Here eat up." 'You look like a twig.'
"Thank you, I love oyako domburi." He took a bite and began eating more.
"Where are you staying?" Mariam asked, sitting across from him.
"I was gonna stay at a hotel.. or maybe stay at a friends house."
"Oh? You know people here?"
"Yeah, a guy named Tyson."
Mariam almost spit her food out. "Tyson Granger?" (Yes, dub names do suck.)
"Yeah, you know him?"
"Oh yeah.."
"I mean of course you know him! He's like the strongest blader around!"
'With the biggest ego too..' "He's pretty good."
"What do you mean pretty good? He's the best!"
'I'm better.' "Well I think some people are just better."
"Okay, Mariam.. if that's what you think.."
vXv
"We should've came here at night!" Brooklyn mumbled.
"That's when the people that grounded us get home!" Hilary told him as they hid in the closet, waiting for all the people to go away.
"Atleast we're not in school." Mathilda said, then they got out. Mariah looked both ways then they swiftly ran straight then looked both ways again before they reached their destination. Hilary stared at the cold steel door then put her ear up to it, hoping to hear voices or footsteps.
She heard nothing so she slowly opened the door and peeked in, making sure no one was in there. The brunette sighed in relief then the group walked in, quietly shutting the door behind them.
The room was very big and it was painted a dark blue. Their was little light in it but you could still see someones physical features and etc... There were three desks in the middle and in the far right corner of the room was a smaller room connected to this one. There was also a window on the other side of the room so that brought in some light. Cabinets also practically covered the walls and there was also a small picture next to the door which the group happened to ignore.
"Okay, look around you guys. Make sure there are no other doors to get in here, if there is then guard them." Mathilda told them as she began looking around.
Brooklyn walked around, gazing at the room without noticing what he bumped into.
"HEY! What are you kids doing in here?" A man that looked to be about in his late fifties.
The young teen panicked so he punched the guy. Raul walked by and looked at the man sitting on the floor, rubbing his head.
"Nice."
"Yeah thanks, I've been practicing my kung-fu."
"Grab him!" Mathilda glared at them as she jumped on the older man. She grabbed something out of her pocket then put it around the man's mouth.
"What's going on?" Ming-Ming asked, walking up to them.
"We captured this dude."
"I think he's the janitor." Raul said, looking at his dirty uniform and his broom in his hand.
Hilary and Mariah ignored them and tried to look for something.
"Okay, speak." The pinkette lowered the scarf and he simply glared at her.
"What are you kids doing here? It's a school day." He scolded.
"We're here on important matters, old man." Raul told him.
"Yeah pops, we came here for some papers." Brooklyn smirked.
"What papers! You can't get into those cabinets without a key anyway!" The old man said, reaching for his walkie-talkie but Ming-Ming noticed and she quickly snatched it away and stepped on it. "Hey! Well no matter, there is a camera here. So you guys are screwed."
They all looked at eachother.
"Aw shit, we're gonna get busted."
"Not unless two of us split up. Brooklyn and I can go to the security area and erase ourselves from the tapes, Ming-Ming and Mathilda can stay here and make sure this guy doesn't leave and Hilary and Mariah can search for the key." Raul told them and they nodded.
"We just have to know where the key and camera room are." Hilary said, looking at the old man.
"Oh no, I'm not saying anything."
Mathilda kicked his back.
"Tell us!"
"No!"
She kicked it again.
"No."
She was about to kick it again until he gave in.
"Okay, okay! I'll tell you! Their is an extra key in the conference room which is usually empty. It's taped under the large ivory table. To get to the conference room you have to leave that door then go left. Keep on going down then look for a four on a door and there it is. The camera room is in the northern wing. Just leave out here and go straight then make a right at your first turn. The first door you see is the camera room. Okay?"
"Thanks pops. Okay see you guys in half an hour." Brooklyn grinned then him and Raul walked out of the room.
"See you guys later! Good luck!" Ming-Ming waved to Hilary and Mariah as they exited the room. She looked at the old man who was panting heavily. "Hey, are you okay?"
"Yeah, my back pain is kickin' in though." He coughed a bit. (AHAHA! Get it? Mathilda KICKED him and he said his back pain is KICKIN' in? HAHA. Um.. yeah anyways..)
"You want some water?" Ming-Ming ran over to the water dispenser and poured cold water into a plastic cup then handed it to the man.
"Thank you." He said and Mathilda scoffed, turning the other way. She didn't trust this man at all.
"We're sorry for hurting you like this but we, well I, believe that maybe ghosts do exsist and you heard about the death of Kai Hiwatari right?"
"Sorta.."
"Well the brunette lives in his house right now and I believe that maybe his ghost is still there.. it really depends if he moved on or not. I don't really know because Hilary, the brunette, never told me she saw him.. oh and if he's a ghost haunting the house then maybe if we get the papers on him then we'll help him move on!"
"I never woulda guess a bunch of kids cared 'bout these kinds of things.. by the way my name's Bakuten Midori."
"I'm.. Ling-Ling and this is my friend Mitten."
"Do you think this Hilary girl sees his ghost?"
Mathilda stared at Ming-Ming from behind the old man. Ming-Ming gulped and mentally smacked herself then answered his question. "Um.. I don't know.. if she did then she would've already moved."
'What is she doing? Doesn't she know that she also said Hilary's name! We could get in trouble.. but wait.. she was wearing that hoody over her head.. hahaha, maybe we won't get caught.' Mathilda thought, grinning.
To the other girls..
The two girls closed the door quietly ignoring the boys who went the other way. They looked down the hall then quickly made a dash for room number four and thankfully no one was in there way. Mariah put her ear to the door then opened it and Hilary locked it once they got in.
"I'll get the key." Mariah said, crawling under the big wide table. There was somewhat of a large border around the table so you wouldn't be able to tell what or who was under it.
Hilary waited by the door anxiously then heard some people walking their way. She gasped then ran under the table as someone jiggled the knob. "Someone's coming in!" She told her pink-haired friend.
"Yeah I know! I bought her that stupid Kingdom Hearts game and she won't stop playing it! Her grades are slipping!" (I love Kingdom Hearts)
"Attention gentlemen.. hey what are shoes doing under the table?"
"Quick take off your shoes!" Mariah whispered as she took off hers and she scooted away from them. Hilary did the same. Then a man's hand took them without looking under the table.
"Who let kids in here again?" He asked, throwing the shoes near the door.
"Not me."
"Probably Onaku."
"Let's just get to business okay?" An annoyed voice said, already sitting down.
"Okay, be careful.. make sure not to touch anyone's leg or shoe." Hilary whispered as the other eleven people began to sit down. Thankfully this was a wide table but the smell! Good lord, it was stinkin' up in there!
"I'm gonna die Hilary.."
"Hey look!" The brunette pointed to a man's leg that was feeling a woman's leg.
"Yuck.. grownups.." Mariah scowled then squealed as she turned her head. "Lookie!"
Hilary glared at her for almost blowing their cover but looked and her eyes widened. "Oh my gosh, a male's leg.. feeling another male's leg.." (Theres only one female there)
"That is so cute."
"Anyway what do you think Suzy? Should we leave our security the way it is or upgrade it?"
"Well our security is incredibly and shockingly amazing so we should leave it, there's no point in wasting valuable money on useless items."
"I agree, we've never had a problem before except for that incident fourty years ago.. did those brats really think they could sneak in here and try to steal those papers?"
"But you have to admit they were pretty good, they were able to keep that man stalled and were able to erase -"
"Moving on, I think we really need to improve.."
"Brats? Sneaking in.. stealing papers? Stalling somebody? That sounds like us!"
"But what was that man going to say? Erase what?" The ruby-eyed girl asked.
"Who knows, adults are weird."
"Yeah but I'm so curious."
"Hey.. how long do you think we're going to stay here?" Mariah asked, clutching onto the gold key.
"Not long.. I hope. You wanna make a run for it?"
"Are you crazy Hilary? We'll be leaving our shoes and we might get caught!"
"I can buy us some new better shoes and we won't get caught if they don't see our face." Hilary whispered.
"They'll see my face though."
Hilary looked at her for a second then remembered that she had a hat on so she took off her hoody and put it on Mariah. Then she pushed all her hair into the hat and lowered it some more. "There, just put the hoody over your head, it's pretty big so it should cover your face."
"How will I see?"
"I'll hold your hand and I'll guide the way."
"Okay on one.." Mariah began then someone kicked their foot just below Hilary's nose and she looked like she was about to sneeze. "Hilary, no.. please. If you sneeze then they'll have time to think and capture us faster.."
"ACHOO!"
"Shit, three!" Mariah grabbed Hilary's hand while carefully holding onto the key then ran out the door once the people began to notice that someone was under the table.
"Get them! Call security!"
Mariah panicked and ran quickly to their little hide-out and hoped that Brooklyn and Raul were in the camera room.
The boys..
"Hey look, there's Mariah and Hilary." Brooklyn said, pointing to a screen in which two girls were running.
"You idiot! We have to take that tape out because look! There's people following them!" Raul, pressed a button and a tape popped out.
"Wow, look at them go." Brooklyn grinned then glanced at the knocked out guards. "Ya know, now that we're known, maybe we should steal their clothes."
Raul nodded then they began undressing themselves and the two guards. They were now wearing a white button-up shirt with the guard's names on it, blue dress pants and hats that resembled lieutenant hats.
"I look pretty snazzy." Brooklyn said then looked at Raul. His shirt was two sizes bigger than him and so were his pants. "Wow."
"Yeah.. thanks. Anyways lets get back to these tapes. Okay rewind that one.. yeah that's safe.. oh let's take out the ones where all the guards are running."
"Why? Oh I get it, so when they look at this then they'll feel like this never happened!"
"Yeah.. something like that. Okay, I think we're done here. Oh wait, what should we do with our clothes?"
"You can put it in your shirt to make you look fatter."
"Ha ha.."
"Just do it, then tuck it in so the clothes won't fall out."
Raul rolled his eyes but did what he was told then tucked in his shirt. "We should put these guys somewhere.."
"In here." Brooklyn called, already stuffing one of them in a closet. Raul did the other and he sighed as they walked out the door. They lowered their hat as they noticed a guard was behind them.
"Hey Jimmy, my man! How's the wife?" A man asked, slapping Brooklyn's back.
"Bitchy as ever."
"Still huh? Well maybe a good flower and a box of chocolate will do the trick!" He laughed then walked the other way. "See ya later Jimbo!"
"How'd you know what to say?"
Brooklyn shrugged. "It just came out."
Raul nodded then stopped in front of the door which seperated them from the girls and the old guy.
"Hey!"
The two turned their heads nervously.
"You guys seen a couple of girls runnin' around here. Oh what up my man!" The man grinned at Brooklyn.
"Hey."
"Haven't seen any girls though." Raul said.
"Hey Zelos, ya sound different. Bet Clarisse made ya sick huh? Ya need loosen up a bit! Have some fun in your life and stop being so serious! Do the jig for once, hahaha! See ya guys around!"
"Bye man!" Brooklyn waved and Raul hit his hand.
"Stop that, we're here on a mission."
"Fine." Brooklyn then knocked on the door, using his special knock and almost immediantly Ming-Ming opened it.
"Took you long enough, Hilary and Mariah are already here."
"Yeah we saw from the cameras so we have to hurry."
"We know, Hilary told us what happened. We're looking for the cabinet where his paper is.. Bakuten says it's over there if his last name started with an H." Mathilda said, pointing over to the cabinets on the right.
"Who's Bakuten?"
"Me." The janitor said, still sitting in his chair with Mathilda behind him.
"This is so hard! The letters are liked everywhere! A is next to M, B next to E!" Mariah said, almost falling down.
"Ya know.. I heard a story like this before. There were these groups of kids who stole some papers here and they got away with it but while they were running out one of the girls got caught by a guard and the friends went to get them back.."
"Group of kids..? Stealing papers? Bakuten, when did this happen?" Hilary asked, turning around.
"'Bout fourty years ago, why?"
"We heard some people in the conference room metioning that!" Mariah gasped.
"Did anyone tell you how many kids there were?" Ming-Ming asked.
"Let's see.. they said two boys and four girls.."
"Holy crap, that's us!" Brooklyn mumbled, his eyes widended.
"Oh my kami, the past is coming back to repeat itself." Raul looked at Mathilda and she shook her head.
"No, we're the ones who didn't get caught. Those last kids got caught remember?"
"Not to sound rude but would you guys hurry up and leave? They'll probably suspect that you guys took the key and come racing down here."
"Yeah he's right, we need to -"
"I FOUND H!" Mariah shouted then Hilary quickly put a hand over her mouth.
However, someone knocked on the door. "Hello? Somebody in there?"
Raul looked at Brooklyn and they nodded their heads. They motionted for the others to hide somewhere safe then they moved behind the door as it slowly opened.
"Gosh, this place gives me the creeps.." A young man told himself as he entered the slightly dark room. He closed the door behind him and walked into the middle of the room.
The two boys quickly jumped on him and beat him until he were unconsciouious. Once they were done, they put the guy in the corner and walked away, guarding the door.
"Hey that guy looks familiar.." Brooklyn said as the people walked into the bigger room.
Mariah gasped. "That's Lee! Oh my gosh, he never told me he worked here!"
"Oh well, we'll have to leave him here if you want to make it out safely." Raul warned and after a couple of seconds she nodded.
"Found Kai's paper!" Hilary smiled and the chibi inside her danced around, grinning like the fool she is.
"Okay let's go. We'll see ya later Bakuten!" Ming-Ming smiled and waved then left the door.
Mathilda was the last to leave, she glanced at Lee then looked at Bakuten. "You're sure you're not going to tell?"
"Do you trust me?" The old man asked, slowly getting up.
Mathilda shook her head.
"That's fine, you don't have to trust me but just promise me something."
The young girl slowly walked towards him.
"Remember the lives of those before and after you."
She looked at him then nodded her head then ran out of the room, following her friends.
vXv
Ray walked outside with his lunch in his hand and his cellphone in the other.
"Hey Ray! Over here!" Max called to his neko-friend and Ray smiled at him then they sat under the big tree eating their lunch. "So where were you last two periods?"
"At guidance, I needed to talk to them about the fight that happened yesterday."
"Man Ray, you shouldn't get involved. They're chicks, chicks do what they do. If us superior men get caught up in their web then we'll stay there forever!"
"..Okay."
"Just givin' you a heads up buddy." He smirked then noticed Tyson running towards them.
"Dude, I was having lunch detention with that boring teacher and he had the news on!"
"Well, what were they talking about?"
"This guy died, he died this morning while he was at work!"
"So? People die everyday Tyson. We have to move on." Max said then became quiet after remembering how they felt when Kai died.
"But the teacher cried and I asked him what was wrong and he said that was his friend! Then he let me out early! Hahaha!"
"Tyson, why should we care?" Ray asked, growing bored of the subject.
"That was a sad moment, it was a you-had-to-be-there moment actually."
"Right well anyway I need to call Hilary and see what's up with her." Ray said then put his phone to his ear.
"Hello? Ming-Ming? What are you doing at Hilary's house? Oh.. you got back an hour ago from... the park? Really? Zeo, Hilary's old boyfriend? He's there? Really! Wow.. well I gotta talk to Hilary okay? Kay thanks."
"Zeo? I KNOW HIM! Wow, two surprises in one day!"
"What are you talking about Tyson?" Max asked, looking at him strangely.
"Zeo is my old pal. We go way back."
"Hey Hilary? Well I talked to them and they were like they'll talk to Julia's group tomorrow and I'll have to be there."
"Wait a sec.. ZEO WENT OUT WITH HILARY?"
"Jeez Tyson, keep it down." Max told him.
"Yeah that was him, anyways I have to go now, I'll try to see you after school. Bye."
vXv
Hilary hung up the phone and sighed. The papers were upstairs in a shoe box under her bed and Kai was no where. I mean he couldn't be seen but you couldn't feel his coldness.
"Hilary, how did you know where to go?" Mariam asked, glancing at her.
"Well.."
Flashback-
"Okay, we've been walking around here for an HOUR! Can we please stop and get some rest?" Mariah asked, dragging her feet.
"Children.. are you looking for some help?" An old lady asked sitting on a bench close by them.
"Not -"
"Yeah." Mariah interrupted as she sat next to the older woman.
"Well, what are you looking for?"
"Oh it's noth -"
"We need to look for some important documents. We're studying dead peoples cases." The pink-haired girl said, interrupting yet another person.
"Oh?"
Mariah looked at her friends, wondering if they were gonna speak up then when they didn't for a while she spoke.
"Yeah, do you know the closest place that contains dead peoples cases and all that forensic stuff?"
"Oh yes, actually just go through these woods, follow the path and always make a right when theres a crossroad, and you'll be in front of a large building in no time."
"Thank you so much!" Mariah hugged the older woman and the group all walked into the woods.
"Do you know her?" Ming-Ming asked.
"Yeah, that's my grandma's bestfriend.. she's real nice. Her names like.. Deery Lou I think."
"I see.."
-End Flashback-
"I dunno." She shrugged.
"So you wanna do something tonight?" Zeo asked, getting awfully close to Hilary and she smiled at him.
"Actually I have to practice something at night and I'm grounded."
"Well what are you gonna practice?"
"Martial arts! Yeah, I'm gonna have so much to learn tonight."
"How about I join you?"
"My teacher doesn't really like anybody.. see he usually keeps to himself and he's kinda cold-hearted and like the mysterious type. Ya know? He reminds me of Koji."
"Koji? From over there?"
"Yeah, that's him but my teacher might not let you train with us."
Mariah heard their conversation and was laughing up a storm! Just by the description she knew who this teacher was.
Hilary glared at her then Zeo kissed her on the lips. "It's okay, we can do something later or whatever."
"Oooooh!" They all went.
"Shut up, like Mathilda and Raul.. and Ming-Ming and Brooklyn.. AND Mariah and Ray haven't been kissing either." Hilary smirked as her girl friends glared.
"Hi-lary!" Mathilda squeaked as Raul smirked at her.
"You want a kiss huh? Well we could go down to make-out lake and.." Brooklyn grinned and stood closer to her.
"Not on your life pal." Ming-Ming smacked his head then jumped on the couch.
"Oh I gotta go you guys. Something's gonna happen soon, I can feel it!" Mariah said, quickly putting onHilary's other shoes (She lefthersin the conference room remember?)and leaving after saying bye to them all.
"See you soon Mariah!"
"Bye!"
"Good luck with your brother!"
"It's too bad.. I think Ray said he was gonna try to come here after school."
"Oh yeah, Hilary there's money in your room. It's from your folks." Mariam told her and the brunette nodded. She glanced at Zeo who was talking to Raul then started for the stairs.
"I have to use the bathroom, excuse me." Hilary then ran upstairs and walked into her bed room. "Kai? Are you in here?"
When she got no reply she got the papers from the shoe box then ran into the middle room.
"Kai?" Hilary asked as she closed the door.
"Hm.."
"Good, you're here!" She smiled at him and then sat on the bed in the center of the room. Besides her room, this was her favorite room. It was always so bright and calm. The walls were painted a shade of baby blue and the sofa and chairs in the corner were bright yellow. The window, that was just in front of the bed, always had the sun shining into it and just made the room more happier.
"The.. papers..?"
"Yeah! Wanna take a look?"
He nodded and handed the papers to him. Kai sat next to her and looked down at the papers. He saw his body, pictures of the possible murder weapons and information about possible suspects. The ghost pointed at the body and Hilary just looked at him.
"What?"
"I have that."
"Huh?"
"I have it."
"What are you talking about?"
"I'll show you." Kai walked over to the dresser near the door then moved the candle that was on top of it. Suddenly the floor shook and stairs appeared which seemed to be leading downstairs. Kai walked down the steps and Hilary shortly followed.
"Wow, Mariah and I were looking for this place!" The brunette gaped at the beauty, it wasn't dusty or old. It was new, fresh and just so gorgeous.
Kai stepped on the last steps then flickered the lights.
"Oh my word." Hilary walked around the medium-sized room and almost fainted on the plush cushions lying in a corner.
Then Kai pointed to a coffin with a glass cover. The body was badly injured but his face was still perfect and was just so beautiful.
"Kai.. oh my gosh, is that how you were when you died? I'm so sorry!" She felt like crying as she looked at the body then at him.
"Don't.."
"Don't what, feel sorry for you?"
"No.. nevermind. But that's me or used to be me." He sighed then walked towards a large dresser then pulled open a small drawer. "My beyblade. My real one. The one I use to practice with you isn't mine. I found it here.."
"Wow Kai, your beyblade is so pretty.." (I just realized that this would be the most perfect time for her to ask him if he could teach her how to beyblade.)
"Let's go." Kai said, walking up the steps and Hilary shortly followed. Once they both reached the top of the steps and put the candle in its original spot.
"Hey Hilary? Where are you?"
"Kuso.. that's Zeo. I'll see you later tonight Kai." She whispered and he nodded, taking the papers away to study. Hilary unlocked the door and smiled at him.
"There you are, c'mon your friends are about to leave soon."
"Really?" The brunette asked sadly but hopped happily downstairs and smiled at her friends and gave them big hugs. "I'll see you guys later! Hope you all had fun on our adventure." She winked and they grinned while Zeo just stared at them, a confused look on his face.
"We'll see you later Hilary!" Ming-Ming waved then they all walked out of the door.
"Now that we're alone.." Zeo mumbled, putting his arm around around her waist and pulling her closer.
Mariam then coughed really loudly and Hilary blushed while also pushingm away.
"So.. um.. where are you staying again?"
"Maybe at Tyson's place.."
"Tyson? Ty-Tyson Granger?" Hilary panicked, Tyson was trying to go out with her! And this was Hilary's old boyfriend! They're could be a lot of trouble at that dojo..
"Yup! Man, it's been a while since I've seen him.. gee I can't wait!" He smiled happily.
"Well I hope you guys have fun."
"Anyways I have to go now, bye Mariam!" He waved then grabbed Hilary's hand and walked outside, closing the door behind him.
Mariam and now-visible Kai looked at eachother then ran to the window, hoping not to miss a thing.
"So Mariam told me that you got suspended for a week."
"Oh yeah.."
"Well I'm gonna be staying here for a week too, I'll try to come over a lot." He smiled then pulled her closer until their foreheads touched. Hilary looked down, feeling a smidge guilty. He smiled at her and lifted her chin up.
"I love you so much Hilary. I've missed you." Zeo told her then closed his eyes and then his lips slowly fell on hers.
"Zeo.." She slightly opened her mouth and.. well.. you know. Yeah, haha, you guys know.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD!" Mariam shouted, her eyes widening then ran to the door.
Hilary pulled back and waited for her friend to come crashing through the door. She counted silently, then when she said one..
"HILARY! ..Oh, ahaha.. my mistake. Hey, weren't you supposed to be leaving? Oh hey, I'll walk you to our gate." Mariam smiled, pullling Zeo's arm then opening the large door then pushed him out. "See you later!"
"Mariam!" Hilary shouted as her friend quickly closed the gate.
"What?"
"You.. him! Argh.. nevermind."
"Yeah, that's right! You big flirt!" Mariam called to her as Hilary walked out back. The brunette walked into their backyard and sighed then climbed the tree. She didn't know why she climbed it, she just did. Then she reached the big branch and sat on it, she leaned on the trunk and sat on the thick branch. Well coincidently that branch led straight to Hilary's room and that's where Kai was.
The ghost looked at her and she blinked at him. Then he opened the window and sat on the edge of the branch with his arms crossed. He faced the clear sky and she looked at him then looked at the sky as well. Hilary glanced at her watch and school was almost over, just another hour..
"Were you both watching me?" Hilary decided to ask after a half hour of silence.
He shrugged. "Depends on what you want to hear."
"Tell me!"
"Ask her." He looked down at Mariam who was looking up at them.
Hilary shrieked, making the treebranch shake slightly.
"How long have you been there?" The ruby-eyed girl asked, glaring at the girl.
"Long enough."
"You're such a freak!"
"So are you." She said slyly.
"I'm not talking about that kind of freak! ..But um.. were you guys both watching me?" Hilary asked her and she smirked and nodded her head. The younger girl looked at Kai who continued on looking at the sky.
"Damn, it's too bad Kai isn't human.." Mariam shook her head and walked inside the house. "He'd beat the shit out of Zeo.."
"Why were you guys watching?" She felt stupid, waiting for her answer and he simply gave her a cold stare.
'Hehe.. Operation S.A.F.H is slowly working..' He thought, turning his head and continued on looking at the beautiful sky. But what he really wanted to do was stare at Hilary's gorgeous face all day.
After about another thirty minutes of silence Kai began to speak, "Be here at midnight." Then he disappeared and Hilary didn't know why but she felt.. guilty.
'It's like.. I know Kai.. ever since I had that dream, he's the only thing I'm able to think about and when I saw his body like that.. I wanted to give him a hug and just cry from him. Wait.. the necklace I saw in the dream, I think I saw it around..'

"Grandpa! I'm home!"
"Hey dawg! I'm in the kicthen yo!" The boy's grandpa replied.
"Cool! What are you cooking?" Tyson raced into the kitchen and his jaw almost dropped.
"Hey Tyson!"
"Zeo? Wow! I knew you were gonna be here but so soon! Woah, I missed ya man!"
"Alright lil' dudes, I'll catch ya on the flip side! Peace out A-Town down." Then the older man walked out of the room, leaving the boys in the room. (Okay I'll stop.)
"So I heard you go out with Hilary." Tyson said, drinking a glass of water.
"Actually I don't really know what's up. Ya know I just came to visit and all.. does she have another boyfriend already?"
"Um.. I don't think so.. Brooklyn.. no, Max and her.. no, Ray and her are just really good friends so she's not going out with anyone."
"Whew.. that's good 'cuz I wanna see if there's still anything between us."
"Yeah.."
"Woah, dude.. do you like her?"
"WHAT! No!" Tyson was about to burst out laughing but this was his homie, he couldn't make fun of his 'girlfriend'.
"Oh okay, that's good.."
Suddenly his phone rang.
"Hey grandpa, can you pick it up?"
But the phone kept on ringing so Tyson and Zeo walked over to the phone and the bluette was about to pick it up but the phone stopped ringing. Instead someone's voice came through the message reciever. (Or something like that.)
"Hey Tyson, it's me Max and Kenny, well Max is over at my house so yeah we're doing a project. Anyway when you get this message call back, we wanna know if you can come over or whatever.. by the way, Max told me you were gonna ask out Hilary some time, is that true! If it is then call back immediantly! Anyways see ya later!"

"Hey guys." Mathilda walked into her home and put down a bag full of candy and a bottle of soda.
"Where were you?" Miguel asked, sitting at the table.
"At someone's house and then we went to the store."
"Did you have fun?"
"I guess.. I met this guy Bakuten, he's kinda nice." Mathilda said, taking a lollipop out of the bag then began sucking on it.
"What are you talking about?" Claude asked. "What's his last name?"
"Huh? Um.. It's Midori or something like that.."
"..I was watching the news today and this morning at like six a guy named Bakuten Midori died at his work."

Digi: Hehe, wasn't that ending just weird? I was like WOW. But did you notice how that after the make-out session with Zeo that Kai is acting cold? I mean yeah he was that crazy plan to ignore her but we all know why he's acting cold, he JEALOUS! Hehe.
Anyways I really hope you like this. I hope you guys review and hopefully next time more questions will be answered! See ya later!
