Okay this chapter should be for some general questions to be answered
Also disclaimers: I still don't own, nor will I ever so I'll stop disclaiming.
Chapter 3: WWSHD? (What would Sherlock Holmes do?)
Abe awoke suddenly. He felt like he had been dropped from the sky.
"What the hell happened…" he began to ask, but then he remembered. He had fallen asleep with Rin telling him a story.
Abe automatically looked over to the corner that Rin had crouched into to see Mihashi looking around in confusion.
"Mihashi what are you doing?" he demands. It comes out sounding angrier than he is, and Mihashi flinches.
"H-How… corner… me…" he stammered.
"Yeah, why are you in the corner Mihashi?" Tajima asked from the field. Abe glanced at his watch and gasped at how long he had been asleep. Two hours!
"I dunno," Mihashi's timid voice brought Abe back to earth.
"What do you mean you don't know?!?!?!" Abe demanded. He had spent his time talking to Rin and according to his memory, Mihashi was aware when Rin took over.
Mihashi just half-screamed and said something about falling asleep in his mother's car.
Hmm, Abe thought. Maybe since Mihashi is asleep when Rin takes over he doesn't know about it…
Later after the morning practice Abe found Nishihiro and decided to get some questions answered. Nishihiro was smart so he'd have to have some, and it didn't hurt matters that he was the one who created Rin.
"Hey," he called to get the smart kid's attention.
"Yes, what do you need?" Nishihiro asked. Abe took a deep breath and began his story. He thought it would be shorter since it only started the previous night but Nishihiro interrupted a few times to ask questions.
By the time he was done he was surprised that Nishihiro hadn't called him crazy and ran screaming for the asylum.
"So you believe me?" Abe sighed.
"I didn't fully undo the hypnotic trance," Nishihiro shrugged. "So it's possible."
"So what do you think I should do?"
Nishihiro shrugged again. He sighed once and rubbed his temples to
"So have you wondered why both times that this has happened you both were asleep?" Nishihiro finally asked slowly. He was onto something for sure.
"Yeah, so?" Abe wasn't sure of where he was going with this.
"I'm not sure, but I think we need to wake up Rin again,"
Abe was nervous about Nishihiro's plot.
Actually he had no problem with the plan itself. He liked putting Mihashi to sleep by sneaking some sleeping pills into his lunch. That would be easy since the team ate together, and if anyone asked he could say that he was looking out for his pitcher's wellbeing (plausible lie) since he hadn't been sleeping well (not-so-plausible lie).
What scared him was Rin walking around school. What if he did something that totally ruined Mihashi's life forever?
What if he tried some funny business?
"Hey, Mihashi wake up!" Tajima exclaimed. Abe's train of thought suddenly broke and he stole a glance at his pitcher.
"Leave him be Tajima," Nishihiro sighed, and thus the experiment began.
Yes, short chapter again. Sorry, but what do you all think will happen when Rin takes over?
I know I've only got, like one reader, but could someone review?
Please?
