Saku followed the nurse into the office's bathroom.
"Here, let me clean your wounds in here." Hone told her. Saku nodded, holding her arm close. When Hone opened the door to the bathroom, there was a field of black grass. Saku stared at the sparkling red lake, and the lone tree near it. She gazed at the sun, which happened to be setting, making everything dark.
"Where am I?" Saku asked, turning to Hone. She took a step back when she saw that Hone Onna was now wearing a blue kimono on. Her red obi was on backwards, the bow in front. The kimono was falling off her shoulders, and reached the ground. Hone walked towards her, placing a hand on Saku's back. She led her to the tree.
"It's okay. We aren't going to hurt you, besides you summoned us." Hone told her. Saku looked at the tree, and a girl jumped down from it. She had black hair that reached her waist, and blood red eyes. A black sailor school uniform was on her body. She happened to be barefoot. Next to her was a little girl with purple eyes, and short black hair. She was wearing a purple kimono dress that ended at her knees. She had on wooden sandals, and was holding a fan.
"Wait, I know you. You were those girls from the host club." Saku stated. They both nodded.
"My name is Ai. You've summoned me." She stated.
"And I'm Kikuri!" The little girl said happily.
"Y-You're the Hell Girl!" Saku exclaimed. Ai nodded, walking towards her. She was holding a black straw doll.
"This is for you, if you truly wish revenge; just pull the thread around his neck. I will ferry the soul of your tormentor straight into the depths of hell." Ai told her.
"You will?" Saku asked. Her fingers twitched as she went to pull the thread.
"However, by pulling the string, you are bound into a covenant with me. I will ferry the soul of your tormentor straight into the depths of hell, however once vengeance has been served, you will have to deliver on your end of the bargain. There always has to be a price. When you enter the covenant, your soul will also belong to hell. You will never know the joys of heaven; your soul will be left to wander through a world made of pain and agony. There to remain for all eternity. Only when you die, of course." Ai told her.
"Wh-What?" Saku muttered, looking at the doll. Her fingers were wrapped around the string, but she was frozen in fear. Arms reached out of the ground, pulling at her legs. She fell to the ground, the doll falling out of her hands. The decaying arms wrapped around her waist trying to pull her in. Saku screamed as loud as she could, fear and horror filling her voice. In an instant the hands were gone, and she was lying on the bathroom floor, completely safe.
"And now the decision rests with you." Ai's voice rang out. Saku crawled into a sitting position, and reached for her doll. She looked at the red string.
"Is it really worth it?" She muttered. She sighed, standing up. Saku walked out of the bathroom, and out of the nurse's office. She ran to her classroom, taking the long way to avoid the F classes. Once she got to her room, she ran over to her desk, placing the doll in her bag.
"Saku, there you are." The teacher said. Saku looked up at the bald, elderly man.
"Yes?" Saku asked.
"Your driver is here to pick you up. Apparently you have a dentist appointment or something." He told her. Saku nodded, and walked out of the classroom, bag in hand. She walked through the silent halls; the only sound she heard was her school shoes hitting the clean floors. She walked down a staircase, and when she got to the edge, a hand grabbed her wrist, pulling her behind the staircase. Her back was slammed into the wall, making her drop her things.
"Hello." Her stalker said.
"Wh-what do you want? My driver's here to pick me up." She told him.
"They bought that load of crap. People are idiots, aren't they?" He asked her. She gasped as realization washed over her.
"Let me go!" She shouted. The response that she got was nothing more than another slap.
"I think that you're forgetting that I can end this anytime I want, just by killing your sister." He told her.
"Please, I'm begging you! I'll do anything you want! Just let me go." She begged.
"Anything? Are you sure?" He asked. Saku nodded.
"Well, I guess I can finally tell you my name. It's Juro" He muttered. Her eyes widened as he bent down, placing his lips on her neck. She bit back a scream as he bit down on her neck.
"What did I do to deserve this?" She asked him.
"Absolutely nothing. I just have to have a wife soon, and congratulations, I chose you." He told her darkly. Saku's eyes widened in horror, and she let out a scream. He silenced her by placing his mouth on her own, and shoving his tongue in.
"I won't let you do this! Let me go!" She thought. She bit down on his tongue, so hard that she drew blood. He backed up, holding his mouth.
"You bitch." He muttered. Saku scrambled up, grabbing her bag in the process. She ran through the hallways, searching through the bag.
"Where is it, where is it?" She muttered, searching for the doll. She tripped over her feet, falling to the ground. The contents of her bag spilled out. Papers, books, pencils, and erasers fell everywhere. She noticed the doll, and grabbed it, scrambling up again. She managed to run through a few more hallways, before Juro ran out of the hallway in front of her, cutting her off. Saku slid to a stop, and tried turning around, only to have him grab the skirt of her dress. She fell to the ground, the doll flying out of her hands. Juro crawled on top of her back, wrapping his arms around her waist. Saku whimpered as his hands roamed down, finally gasping as he got where he wanted to be. She reached for the doll, just barely missing it. Juro paid no attention to it, as he unzipped her dress, eyes roaming over his body. Saku managed to scoot forward slightly, finally grabbing the doll. She pulled it to her chest, just as Juro rolled her over, and pushed the yellow school uniform, off her torso.
"This ends NOW!" She screamed, pulling the thread. She closed her eyes, as Juro raised a hand to slap her again. A wind blew by, taking the doll out of her hands. She held onto the thread as much as she could. Juro grabbed her wrists, trapping them against the floor.
"Your grievance shall be avenged." A male voice rang out. Saku closed her eyes in fear, just as she felt lighter. She opened her eyes and noticed that Juro was gone. She looked at the red string in her hand.
"Thank you. Thank you so much, Ai-san." Saku muttered, holding the thread close to hee bare chest.
