Chapter 7

Me: *yawns* sorry I haven't posted in a while! I've been asleep!

That person next to me: And we just had a visit from prince charming!

Me: I bet they can't even guess who he was!

That person next to me: Well, he is from a TV show, he's British, black hair (that always looks gelled back and it's down to the nape of his neck), and he's kind of… fangy. He lives with a ghost and a werewolf.

Me: Nice description. First one to guess who he is and what show he's from gets to pick the sub-plot for the next chapter! Leave your answer in the review and I'll tell you everyone who got it right and who won! Oh and this chapter is going to go between Lin and Abby everyday they're separated.

DAY 1

Abby sighed, backing further into the corner she was in. She thankfully was hidden by some props from past theatre productions. The ghost was nowhere to be seen, making Abby wonder was the point was hiding her up here exactly.

Taking a courageous breath, she crawled out from her hiding spot and looked around. She was definitely in an attic somewhere in the school. But where? She needed to let Lin know somehow where she was, so he could come and get her, and save her.

The thought of him saving her made her smile, making her come up with a plan for after. Once he saved her, she would break up with her current boyfriend and be with Lin, like she was meant to be, then she would go with him to Japan at the first moment she could.

Lin sighed. Their investigation wasn't going anywhere. They had to find possibly two ghosts, and Abby (who was injured and possibly close to death), and then they had to deal with making a plan to get rid of the ghosts without injuring anyone.

With Abby gone, his focus was out of the window, leaving him lonely for her company, and in some serious trouble with Naru, since he couldn't get any work done.

Just the thought of her would make his pulse quicken; with anger and something else. Immense caring and a possibility of love. Thinking about her, he wondered what it would be like to introduce her to his life in Japan, and his family in China. That thought made him smile.

DAY 2

Abby pulled up her shirt, examining her wound. It was starting to close and starting to heal, which she took as a good sign. The ghost hadn't shown up, yet, but she assumed that she was being watched, and the one thing she didn't want to do was anger the ghost.

Sighing, Abby put her shirt down, staring at it. She had borrowed some old theatre clothes from past performances, so she wouldn't be sitting in her dirty bloody clothes while she was here. She didn't know what she could do. She wanted to let the other's know where she was, but she herself didn't know.

Now, she was thinking. Where were there attics in the school? As far as she knew there were none, but this was an old school and no one knew every part of it, except for those who built it, but they were long dead, which made asking them kind of impossible, unless their ghosts happened to be floating around.

Lin rubbed his eyes with his free hand. He didn't sleep well through the night, dreaming of horrible things that might have happened to Abby while she was gone. He had to find her, for her safety and his sanity. Without her, he wasn't going to be functioning properly.

Suddenly, he felt someone put their hand on his shoulder. Turning around, he almost smiled. Mai was there, with some tea. He thanked her and took it, setting it next to his laptop. Then, he resumed working, mindlessly sipping the tea as he looked through any and all history about the school.

With an aggravated sigh, he pushed his laptop away a couple of hour later, having found absolutely nothing to help him. There were no previous reports on any malicious spirits, or incidents that could cause a spirit to arrive or become malevolent.

DAY 3

Abby slowly opened her eyes, having been woken up by a deep, ferocious growl permeating the air around her. Looking around carefully, she saw a black mass a few feet away from her. With fear coursing through her, she backed up quickly, until her back hit the wall.

The thing crept toward her slowly, its arm reaching for her. It touched her stomach, right where she was stabbed, the feeling cold and creepy on her shirt and skin. Before she could do anything, she felt a sharp pain. This pain made her scream and clutch at her stomach, which made the pain spread, and caused her to scream again.

She was in so much pain she couldn't scream anymore. She was on her side, curled up as the black thing consumed her, making the pain worsen. She sobbed and begged for the pain to go away, which made the thing chuckle and cause more pain in her head.

X X X

Lin jumped, hearing someone scream. It was dark outside of the building, and they were all asleep, well they were until now. Everyone scrambled up, listening for another scream, which came a moment later. They all piled into the hallway looking around for who ever made the scream. There was no one, but it certainly came from inside the building.

They split up, searching all the rooms and hallways, but still found no one. On the way back to the base, they came across a door, on that no one saw before. Takigawa jiggled the door knob, trying to open the door, but it was locked. Lin pushed him out of the way and kicked it open, the door slamming against the wall as it opened.

Inside the room, there was sports equipment, but no person who sounded as if they were in pain. This brought everyone's hopes down of finding Abby. With dropped hearts, they all went back to the base, and curled up in their sleeping bags, falling asleep quickly.

Day 4

Abby pulled her knees closer to her chest, hiding her face with her hair and her knees. The black mass was just there, watching her. If she moved an inch, it would cover her, causing her pain. So she just sat there, glancing at it every once in a while just to be sure.

Her bottom was sore from sitting in the same spot for a long time. She had been there for over twelve hours, but to her it felt like forever. She needed to escape, and quickly. She couldn't sit here forever. She was tired, hungry, in pain, and just plain weak. She couldn't move if she wanted to.

Abby wondered how hard Lin was looking for her. Last night, she heard a loud crash somewhere below her, giving her hope that they had found a way to get to her, but that hope was quickly extinguished when she heard them walking away. They had given up last night, making her want to sob harder.

X X X

Lin sighed, something he did a lot since he met Abby. He really had to find her now. He had a feeling that they had missed something last night, something important. Something that could help them. Last night, he had gotten his hopes up when he kicked the door open, thinking she would be there, but he was disappointed to find nothing of use.

Thinking back to last night, when they were searching through the building, there had been one spot in one of the hallways that had been colder than the rest, just a bit. Lin has passed it off as ventilation, but it seemed a bit odd that it was so colder than the rest of the area.

Curious, he walked out of the base, leaving Mai by herself to watch the cameras. He went to the hallway that it was in and found the spot. Sure enough, it was colder than the rest. Then, he looked up, frowning when he saw that there was no vent. There was something up there, something that was making this spot cold, something that wasn't human.

Me: So, that was just a look into what their lives are like without each other. Sad isn't it!

That person next to me: Yeah *sniffle* It's just so sad. They need person deprivation medicine!

Me: Okay… well Review and suggest this fanfic to your friends! Bye now!
