Don't Turn Away
Chapter 3 Taken
Day 1
I understand the truth, I understand lies. But I couldn't for the life of me at the time, understand what the man had told me. We were driving towards the mansion, and I had arranged a computer chart so someone was always watch the video. 12 am to 3:40 was Lin. 3:40 to 7:20 amwas Naru, 7:20am to 11am was me. 11am to 2:40pm was Monk, 2:40pm to 6:20 pm was Ayako. 6:20 to 10pm was John, and 10 to 12 was Masako. She got the shortest because she complained the most. i almost pulled her off the case but I need her.
When we got to the house I made a call to my boyfriend to check on him. "Hey, Hikaru!"
"Who is this?" Questioned a girl on the other end.
"Hikaru's girlfriend." There was a gasp.
"I didn't know Hikaru had a girlfriend. That's so cool." She said with enthusiasm. Her voice was lathered in ignorance and it actually made my eye twitch.
"Who is this? And can I please talk to my boyfriend?"
"This is Kimichi Yamahura." Stated happily as if I should understand that name. "And yes, you may."
The phone made a few clicking noises before I heard a, "Yello, Hikaru speaking."
"Hey, this is Mai."
"Oh, Hey Babe!" he said with hissing happiness. "Whatcha up too?"
"Working. Who was that?" I said irratated.
"One of my models. Why? Jealous?"
"No. She annoyed me, and her voice drips with ignorance."
"She annoyed you?! We can't have that. KIMICHI, YOU'RE FIRED!"
I giggled as the girl cried. "You didn't have to fire her."
"No, but I would drop anyone for you." The team finished up getting the equiptment in and right as I went to hang up i heard a crash. I ran down the hall as fast as I could but the place was a labyrinth. When i finally got there i hung up quickly and called an ambulance even faster. On the floor was Masako, one of the boards had fallen and crushed her stomach and a knife had fallen into her shoulder.
"What the fuck happened?!" I said loudly. John cried as he recalled the events.
"We were walking down here and I was trying to ask her out on a date. Suddenly we heard a voice telling us, 'The truth is hidden in even truer lies.' We jumped and screamed then out of nowhere, the cuboard broke and almost killed Masako." He was one big ball of tears by the time the ambulance came. So, we let him go with her to the hospital while we stayed behind. Day 1 and we already have an injury to the team. I might actually have to give in and let the spirits guide me.
Day 2
The schedule almost went according to plan which I was very proud of but when I awoke the Sasuke asked that he rearrange the sleeping mates. John had come back but Masako wouldn't be returning to the case. That was fine but I don't like the room settings. John and Lin, Ayako and Monk, Naru and I. Yasuhara is here today so I could tell him the information I need such as, House history, Death history on the surounding area, and a total account on every party event in this house. Which was a great recount, but I knew Yasu was capable of getting this information.
When he returned from the library, he had all the information I needed. My dreams were correct, there was a party here long ago. Next, I needed Lin.
"Lin, I need you're assisstance." I said excitedly. Naru looked up with a depressed puppy dog look on his face.
"What is it, Mai?" Lin got up and started walking to the door.
When we got to the hall way, I spoke quietly as possible, speaking in Chinese instead of Japanese, "Wǒ xūyào yīgè xiànshí de shītǐ." (I need a realistic dead body.)
He shook his head. "I'll get it for you and, I'm impressed." I just lightly nodded my head.
