That person next to me: Mynamezigzag doesn't own Ghost Hunt…. And it sucks cause there would be a second season!
Madoka had apparently called someone because there was a rental van waiting outside. The driver gave over the keys to Lin and walked away, pulling out his phone. Everyone put their bags in the back and pilled in. Lin and Naru were in the front. Mai, John, and Masako were in the second row. In the last row, Ayako, Takigawa, and Yasuhara were quietly talking. Naru kept glancing in the rearview mirror at them.
"So," John started, "Where are we going?" The van got quiet.
"Where are we going? You never told us which high school we were going to." Takigawa chimed in.
"You never asked." Naru said bluntly.
"Where are we going?" Mai asked, annoyed.
"Glad you asked." Naru said sarcastically. Mai rolled her eyes.
"Just tell us." Mai crossed her arms.
"Well, obviously, if the high school is in Clayton, which high school do you think?" Naru asked.
"Clayton high?" Takigawa suggested.
"That's right. At least someone knows something." Naru mumbled.
"HEY!" Four voices yelled. Naru stayed silent, Lin shook his head. Takigawa just smiled smugly.
By the time they reached the school, Ayako and Takigawa had gotten into an argument about who was smarter. Yasuhara was reading a school textbook he had brought. Masako had fallen asleep on John's shoulder, and he was asleep on the headrest. Mai was curled up in her seat, no indication of one of those dreams. Lin stopped the car and everyone who was awake got out. Takigawa smiled mysteriously and pulled out a box. Ayako and Yasuhara backed up. Naru and Lin, not knowing what it was, did the same. Takigawa pulled out an air horn. He plugged his ears the best he could and pressed the button. John and Masako's heads shot up. Mai jumped and fell to the floor of the van.
Ayako and Yasuhara were laughing so hard there were tears coming out of their eyes. As the other three got out of the van, John and Masako glared at the monk. Mai hands were balled at her sides.
"What was that for?" She asked with her teeth clenched.
"Waking you up. We knew you would fall asleep so we saved Naru the trouble and woke you up ourselves." Ayako explained while laughing.
"You weren't supposed to use it on us…" John mumbled. Takigawa shrugged.
"That was the funniest thing I have seen all day!" A new voice rang out. The team turned and saw Madoka, hand over her mouth, trying to contain her laughter.
She was standing next to a man with gym clothes on and keys hanging out of his pocket. He introduced himself as Coach Medlin. He then proceeded to lead them to the gym that was supposed to be haunted. It was a lone building in the middle of campus. There were no cars in the parking lot except a green driver E.D. car. The coach knocked on the door and a girl opened the door. She averted her gaze to the floor. She was wearing gray Sophies and a black Nickleback t shirt. Her hair was red, but her roots were dark brown. It was past her shoulders and had blonde tips. Her glasses were teal blue. When everyone was inside, she let the door shut and ran off. When she was gone, the coach shook his head.
"You know her?" Yasuhara asked.
"She was one of my students. Her and the dead student always hung out during my class." He explained.
"What's her name?" Naru asked.
"It's, um, I think its Abigail." He turned away and walked into the office, slamming the door behind him.
"Geez. The nerve of some people." Mai mumbled.
"You can take either room at the ends of the halls for your base." Yelled a voice from behind the door.
"Thanks!" Mai yelled sarcastically.
They picked the room that was to the right of the gym and got some students from the gym to help clear out the desks. They used the table in the middle of the room and another table to set up the monitors that Madoka had magically gotten them. Lin had pulled the van to the side that they were on and they brought their luggage in. They all had to share the base as a sleep room too. Madoka left to get some sleeping bags and air mattresses for everyone.
While they were wetting up base, a bell rang. They heard lots of chatter and doors opening and closing. When the noise started to die down, there was the sound of the door opening, someone running to get to it before it closes, and something falling.
"Ow!" Came a voice.
Mai and Yasuhara walked out of the base room to see what the problem was. There was a hushed conversations and the word no being repeated a lot. The protests got louder until Mai and Yasuhara returned, dragging the girl from earlier, Abigail, who had a giant red bump on her forehead. She was trying to get away, saying that she had to get to practice. Yasuhara pushed her into one of the chairs. Mai passed him an icepack and he put it on her forehead. He used his other hand to grab one of her hands and put it on the icepack. He took his hand off hers and stepped back.
"What happened?" Naru asked Mai.
"She was trying to get out so she could get to practice. One of the students in front of her had opened the door and she was trying to get to it before it closed. When she got to the door, she was trying to push it open while closing her bag. She missed the door and it wacked her forehead." Yasuhara explained.
"You got all that from that small amount of time?" Lin asked, turning to them.
"It was kind of obvious." Yasuhara snapped.
"How so?" Naru asked.
"Her bag was half opened and her foot was caught in the door. There was another student laughing outside." Mai alleged.
"We helped her up and offered to bring her here but she started to protest. When she started to walk away, she fell. She said she felt dizzy. That's when Mai and I sort of dragged her here." Yasuhara shrugged.
Naru walked up to the girl. He started to silently talk to her. She kept shaking her head and shrugging. Naru muttered a thank you and got up. She got up and gave Yasuhara the ice pack and left.
"What just happened?" Mai asked, confused.
"She doesn't know why the ghost hangs around her so much. Apparently, the ghost hated her when she was still alive. She has shown no signs of violence or psychic powers building up." Naru reported.
"What about the black orb that is following her." Masako asked.
"Did you see it?" She nodded.
Everyone else started to comment about seeing it until Naru cleared his throat.
"We're putting our investigation on hold until we find out. Right now, that girl is our main priority. Yasuhara, Mai, follow her and find out everything you can." They nodded and left.
Mai ran back and grabbed a notebook and a pencil from her bag. She smiled at everyone before running out. Naru shook his head.
"Lin, pull up her school records. Ayako when he gets that up, get her address and go to her house. Ask about her and find out everything about her personal life. John, so find out what practice she has. Takigawa wait here and help Madoka when she gets back." Everyone dispersed.
"What will you do?" Takigawa asked, sitting down.
"I'm going to ask around. Someone has to know something about her.
Me: Sorry about not making all about the girl!
