A/N: I own nothing except my Oc`s. Team Gris-Gris owns Corpse Party.
Yoshiki, Miss Yui and Ayumi were all in a classroom, Ayumi was hyperventilating and Miss Yui trying to calm her down. "Shinosaki-san, it`s alright please calm down" Miss Yui told Ayumi. "But, you heard it to, it was Shinohara-san`s voice" she said, shaking. "I did" Miss Yui replied, "I`m going to make sure it was though. You two stay here and wait for me". As she left however, "Miss Yui, wait! Don`t leave us!" Ayumi shouted. "Shinosaki-san" Miss Yui said as she turned around. "Don`t worry Miss Yui. I`ll look after Shinosaki, or you could stay here and I go" Yoshiki said. "No, until I can verify everyone`s safety… I want to keep you two out of harm`s way" Miss Yui objected. "Alright, be careful" Yoshiki said, "Take this Shinosaki-san" Miss Yui said as she gave Ayumi something. "What is this?" Ayumi asked, "It`s a power stone, I keep it for good luck. I`m giving it to you" Miss Yui replied. As she left she couldn`t shake of this feeling of uneasiness.
After she entered a classroom, a spirit blocked her path. "Well if it isn`t the teacher, looking for your students?" it asked in a sarcastic tone. "Yes, I am, now move aside" Miss Yui said. As she tried to leave however, some invisible force pushed her back. "You think I`d believe this lie?" it asked angrily. Then another earthquake accrued and the shelve next to her fell on top of her. Before the spirit could say anything else, it was hit with a blast of energy. "Who did that?" it asks, "I did" a voice said. It was Honda, and much to the spirit`s surprise he lifted the shelve with no problem. "Why, why did you help her? She`s just a teacher" the spirit said. "Because she cares about her students" Honda replied, "I used to be like you, thinking no teachers cared about their students. Well, Miss Yui proved me wrong". "I see, then you are a student of hers, right?" it asked. Rather than answering, Honda just blasted it again, making it disappear.
"What was that?" Yoshiki asked as the earthquake happened. "I have a feeling Miss Yui`s in trouble" Ayumi said, getting up now that the earthquake had stopped. After a flash of light hit the room, Miss Yui stood in the doorway. "Miss Yui!" Ayumi and Yoshiki said in unison, "Kishinuma-kun, Shinosaki-san" Miss Yui said. "Wait how did you get back here?" Yoskhiki asked, "I got a little help" Miss Yui said. As they turned to the doorway, a familiar figure appeared. "Honda?" Yoshiki asked, "Who else" Honda replied. "What happened to you? You`re transparent" Ayumi said. "Let`s just say, I`ve bit the dust" Honda replied, "So that means…" Miss Yui began. "I`m dead" Honda finished, "Don`t blame yourself Miss Yui, you couldn`t do anything about it" As he stood there, the three others were letting this information sink in. "You know Honda, you`ve got a lot to explain" Yoshiki told him. "I know, I`ll explain this once I can find a way to keep the others safe" he replied. Miss Yui was just trying to not blame herself for Honda`s death. "We`re not listening until you tell us how…", she stopped, seeing the wound on his chest. "Just so you know, you can`t get to Nakashima and Shinohara. This school has multiple dimensions, or closed spaces if you will. Those two are in a different closed space then us, you may hear yells they make, but you can`t reach them. As a spirit, I can reach them, while I look after them you three can look for Suzumoto. I sense she`s in this closed space. There might be a way to cross closed spaces, but I don`t know what it is" he said. "Let us know if you find any of the others" Yoshiki said. Honda nodded and vanished, "Let`s find Suzumoto-san" Ayumi said. The three of them went to do just that.
As Honda was looking for two of his friends, he found something interesting. It was a newspaper, "What`s this article about?" he asked himself. "Heavenly Post. Breaking News: Serial Kidnapping Ends in Murder" he reed, That doesn`t sound good he thought. "The good name of Heavenly Host Elementary School has been stained in blood today, as horrific details on the recent wave of disappearances are revealed. Over the past month numerous children have gone missing within the town, and authorities quickly turn to kidnapping as the most likely explanation. Now investigators have located the whereabouts of these children, and their findings are far worse than anyone could`ve anticipated. The bodies of the absconded youths were discovered within the Heavenly Host Elementary School buildingon September 18th, 1973 at around 7:00 PM. Authorities further revealed that a male instructor from the school was found with them, alive but near-catatonic, holding a pair of bloodied scissors. Each of the corpses appeared to have had its tongue sev_ed and remove_ique mutilations far too grot_g to describe" he finished, not able to read anymore because of the article was missing from this point. Poor children he thought, but quickly grabbed his chest because of the pain. "Come on…just…ignore…it" he said to himself through clenched teeth. He did just that and continued his search.
As the three of them kept looking for Mayu, they found a sight that was rather, unusual. "What`s with the stain?" Yoshiki wondered. The stain was black, it was in the shape of a person. "Ahhh…ahhh!" Ayumi yelled, holding her head. "Shinosaki! Shinosaki-san!" Yoshiki and Miss Yui yelled, running towards Ayumi. She was grabbing her head while yelling in panic. She then passed out, "Shinosaki! Shinosaki-san!" the other two yelled. While Ayumi was unconscious, she had a vision of what this person saw before thier death. It turned out to be Honda. He was looking around, as if looking for something. Then a sword was thrusted through his back, killing him. She then got up quickly, "Ah!" she yelped as she got up. "Are you okay, Shinosaki-san?" Miss Yui asked. "I-I saw how Tsutsuki-kun died" she said. "Well, how did it happen?" Yoshiki asked, "Someone…stabbed him…with his own sword" Ayumi replied. Yoshiki and Miss Yui gasped, "That explains the wound on his chest" Miss Yui managed to say. "I…also felt the pain…he felt" Ayumi added, "It happened quickly, but it was still… really painfull". "Did anything else happen?" Yoshiki asked, "That was…all I saw" Ayumi replied trying to catch her breath. After they got their thoughts strait, they kept moving, avoiding the boy on the first floor.
As Gonta and Ryutaro were caching up with what had happened with the other, the girls were following them. Nari wanted to talk with Gonta, but she didn`t want to force him to talk with her. "Just try, it can`t hurt" Nana kept telling her, but it didn`t help. Funny, I don`t cry, but I can`t talk to one guy she thought. Nana had suggested that Nari could have a crush on Gonta, while Nari denied it then now it could be the case. Ryutaro went next to Nana and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting, babe". Nana just rolled her eyes and said, "I`ll let slide, but only because I love you". Gonta looked at the young couple and smiled, but as he turned to Nari, his smile faded. She was looking at the young couple, but wasn`t smiling. She looked at them like this wasn`t allowed. Gonta went over to her, "Are you okay?" he asked. "Yeah, I`m fine" she replied, to her surprise, he grabbed her hand and dragged her away from the couple. "W-Why are you…" she tried to ask, but couldn`t because she was too focused on their hands. "I wasn`t sure, but it looked like you needed to get away from those two" he answered. She smiled at him, blushing from how nice and caring he was. Chihaya was smiling at them, happy that Nari was in a good mood.
"Uh…thanks again" Nari said, "No problem" Gonta said, letting go of her hand. "Hey, if you two are done playing with each other, we should keep moving!" he yelled to Nana and Ryutaro. They nodded and the group continued walking, Gonta and Nari in front and the three others in the back. "Do you have any friends besides Ryutaro?" Nari asked Gonta while they were walking. "Yeah, though Ryutaro is the only friend I have who`s my age" he replied. Nari nodded going back to being silent, as she thought about what happened just now. He just grabbed my hand, even though he wasn`t sure if something was wrong or not she thought. While they were walking, Nari was trying to grab Gonta`s hand. She stopped herself, and decided to take a glance in this direction. As he did the same, their eyes met, staring into each other. As they realized what they were doing, both of them looked away blushing. This earned a giggle from Nana and Chihaya, while Ryutaro looked at Gonta with interest. This is unusual for Gonta. Could he like her? Ryutaro wondered.
As Miss Yui, Ayumi and Yoshiki passed the infirmary, they heard laughter. When they went in, they saw a familiar face. She wasn`t alone however, in front of her sat two children, one missing an eye, the other missing hlf their face. "And my homeroom teacher`s the best! I guess you feel the same way about yours huh?" she asked the children. "Suzumoto-san!" Ayumi exclaimed, "Miss Yui, Kishinuma-kun, Shinosaki-san" Mayu said. "Thank goodness you`re alright" Miss Yui said in delight. "Are you okay? Can you still stand?" Ayumi asked. "I`m fine. Believe it or not, these really aren`t bad kids. Like Tsutsuki-kun and Gonta-kun, they`ve just been through some horrible experiences. Here, read this and you`ll see what I mean" she replied handing them a newspaper.
"Heavenly Post-Four children abducted follow up report.
The brutal, shocking deaths of the recent kidnapped grade-schoolers have now been traced back to the hands of the instructor found in the room with them. The scissors he held are confirmed to have been used to cut out the victims` tongues, ultimately leading to death trough excessive bleeding or choking. One of the victims even had the majority of her head slowly and methodically removed. This cranial mass was found on the floor next to her body. The four Heavenly Host Elementary students pictured here are the four who were found in that basement room. Out of all of them,_ when investigators arrived at the scene of the crime. She was _ blood _" Miss Yui reed. The rest of the newspaper was torn, so no more could be reed. Ayumi gasped, "These ghosts…have the same uniforms and faces…as the children in these pictures" Yoshiki stuttered. "The ghost who was chasing after us on the first floor…is one of them too" Ayumi said. "I can`t just ignore these poor souls" Mayu said, "I`m…going to stay with them" she finished, beginning to cry. The others looked at each other, "That`s not a good idea Suzumoto. You really need to get out of this room" Yoshiki said. Mayu just sat there, shivering and whimpering. "Please Suzumoto-san, don`t let your emotions get the better of you" Ayumi told Mayu. "Please Suzumoto-san, you have to get out of here" Miss Yui said.
Just then, the children lifted Mayu up in the air. "No, stop!" Ayumi yelled, "H-Hey, what`s going on?" Yoshiki wondered. "We have to get out of here" Miss Yui said, they got out and wondered what they could do. After Ayumi blew her nose, a voice said, "Hello". It was a girl, wearing a school uniform and a blue jacket tied around her waist. Her hair and eyes were blue, her hair had a hair clip and two rubber bands in it and according to Yoshiki her eyes were like those of a dead fish. "You just came to school, did you not?" she asked, "Yeah, were you brought here against your will to? I can`t say I regonice your uniform" Yoshiki said. "Actually I died here quite a while ago. I came in search of someone very important to me, you see" she said. "Your name wouldn`t happen to be Naho, would it?" Ayumi asked. "It is" Naho replied, "Who`s that? You know her?" Yoshiki and Miss Yui asked. "High school paranormalist, Naho Saenoki" Ayumi replied, "I think…she was on TV receiving some kind of award last year. She`s an author right?" Yoshiki asked. "Yeah, she`s also famous for her knowledge on the paranormal, complete with her own website" Ayumi replied, "I-I`m a big fan of yours, Naho-san". "I`m flattered, but you won`t be seeing anymore updates from me I`m afraid" Naho said, "But that`s not your biggest problem right now. What`s more important is your friend".
"That's right, we have to save Suzumoto-san" Miss Yui said, "Do you know of a way to save her?". "What they lack is any remorse or regret from the one who killed them" Naho answered, "Either you find the killer and get them to apologize, or you find another way, good luck". With that, she disappeared, the three others then went to find the killer.
