Chapter 2 Mayu

Toshuki opened his eyes. Where was he now? He was still in an eerie looking school but now he was in a different part of it. He wanted to go back. He wanted to find seiko. What happened? One minute he was there, one minute he was gone. He remembered being shrouded in dark mist like Naomi in her trance but... Then he... Teleported? That was the only way he could describe it. And now he was alone again. He hated being alone. So he got up (clumsily) and stumbled forward. He was still a little dizzy so it took a little practice. After a little wandering around, passing lots of bodies, debris and even a sew blood stained notes (to blood stained to read) he found him self face to face with a huge wooden door labeled 'infirmary'.

He was about to go elsewhere and ignore the somehow sinister looking room when the door swung open and with a mighty ,THUMP, and unconscious body body was flung through at warp speed a knocked Toshuki flat off his feet.

Toshuki: "What the!?" Toshuki exclaimed but was silenced by two deafening wails.

Toshuki tried to cover his ears to drown out the sound but to no avail. But then, Toshuki saw something that turned his blood cold. Two transparent figures of small children burst through the door, screaming and wailing. They were what had flung the unconscious Body into him. Unaware that they had dropped the person, a girl by the looks of it, at bone breaking force they hurtled towards wall through a corridor and vanished into the wall. If they still had the girl, she would have been squished for sure! But luckily, Toshuki was in the way.

Toshuki: "G-g-ghosts!?" He exclaimed, confused by what he saw.

Was it possible? Was it true? It couldn't be but yet, he had seen them with his own eyes! This really was a haunted school. And worse, they had tried to hurt that girl!

Suddenly, two more figures appeared.

Figure 1: "NO!"

Toshuki: "Hello?"

Both figures: "hello?"

Figure 1: "who are you?"

They seemed normal enough. Or at least, they weren't shrouded in mist or ghostly transparent, since that was as normal as it got around here. So he decided to answer them, because that surly would not get him into trouble.

Toshuki: "I'm Toshiki. Who are you two? "

Without answering his question, the first figure (another girl) replied

Figure 1: "is our friend okay?"

Toshuki wouldn't usually reply, but she seemed genuinely concerned. She obviously didn't mean to rude, she was just worried. Toshuki honestly didn't know so he tapped the side of her face gently. She stirred which put Toshuki's mind to rest a little.

Toshuki: "she seems okay to me" Toshuki replied after a quick pause.

The first figure let out a sigh of relief.

Toshuki:" who are you?" Toshuki said it a little louder this time.

The first figure put up her guard again.

Ayumi: "I am class representative Ayumi and this is Yoshiki".

Yoshiki: "hi"

Ayumi: "your sure mayu's okay?" Ayumi asked.

Mayu, so that was the unconscious persons name. Ayumi's expression was filled with dread when she asked the question. Toshuki could understand why.

Toshuki: "she's absolutely fine by the looks of her, and she's still breathing. She wouldn't have been if the ghosts had gotten further away with her though".
Ayumi nodded in agreement.

Yoshiki: "that was close"

She turned to Toshuki and grinned

Ayumi: "thank you".

Toshuki: "it was just lucky I was standing there... "Toshuki replied.
He smiled back all the same though. He was glad to be on friendly terms with these two.

Toshuki: "I'm just glad she's okay".

Ayumi: "me to".

Yoshiki: "me three. Now, do you think we should get out of here?".

He turned to ayumi.

Ayumi: "yeah" She replied.

Ayumi: "could you help me carry muyu please? for now a least..."

Yoshiki: "sure." Yoshiki replied.

Toshuki hoisted muyu up and leaned her up on his shoulders.

Toshuki: "it's alright, I can do it" Toshiki huffed.

Toshuki: if I'm allowed to join you two that is.

Yoshiki: of corse!

Ayumi: absolutely!

Toshuki was glad they were enthusiastic about him staying with them.
Toshuki huffed again.
Carrying Mayu was harder than it looked!

Yoshiki: "I'll help you with the weight" Yoshiki said.

Toshuki was glad of the help. With Mayu being supported by their combined weight, it made the job much easier. They all walked in a big line through the corridor and elsewhere. While walking, Ayumi and Youshiki explained were they were. They're story chilled Toshuki's bones. They were in the forever cursed heavenly host school, where it's victims are either hunted down and murdered by the the lost souls who lived there, or they were cursed with the darkening. Frighteningly, the darkening sounded just like what happened to Naomi, and possibly Toshuki himself. They also explained how they were in separate dimensions and that their freinds were in in other dimensions.

Toshuki: "Who are your freinds?" Toshuki asked

Yoishiki: "well there's us, Morshigue, Satoshi and his little sister yuka..." Yoshiki listed.

Ayumi: "and the inseparable pair, Naomi and seiko". Ayumi finished.

Toshuki: "wait a minute! I was with Naomi and seiko a while ago!" Toshuki gasped.

Ayumi: "that's not possible. I've explained this this to you, we're in seprate dimensions. There's no way you could have passed through".

Toshuki explained what happened to him before (leaving out the part where seiko kissed him) and when he had finished explaining both Ayumi and Youshiki had big shocked expressions.

Toshuki: "I don't know if it will happen again but the odds are it will".

Toshuki sighed.

Toshuki: "I want it to stop now. It's not funny! I want to stay in one dimensions. I'm starting to feel really space sick!"

They both nodded understandingly. Toshuki realised how good it felt to get that off his chest. Come to think of it, he really was feeling space sick. He suddenly realised what that meant.

Ayumi: "I could try and perform an exorcism if you'd like". Ayumi suggested.

Ayumi: "I can't guarantee anything but it could work". She paced thoughtfully.

Toshuki: "oh god, it's happening!" Toshuki cried. His head started spinning.

Ayumi: "If you meet anyone else, ask them to explain the sachiko charm! it's our way outa here!" Ayumi shouted.

Just as before, smoke gradually filled the room and it was coming from him! He closed his eyes as his stomach dropped. He felt like he was falling again. He hated it. His vision went dark...
