Inside the House
Before I would introduce you to the story... are you sure you want to read farther on?
Inside the house, mystery was always around the corner. If anything, even Tsurugi, the master delinquent, had hesitated to got there. So, what would be your choice?
You are welcome to quit reading this, or, if you want, you will keep reading this.
However, you might not like the contents in this book as much as you like the contents in an anime series (which I understand completely).
Might, anyway.
Hakuryuu frowned at the group. "Were you guys stalking each other?"
Kairi immediately gulped and blushed in embarrassment. How she was embarrassed, she did not know. Tsurugi, however sent a glare at Hakuryuu's direction before replying, "No, we were... hanging around."
"I can never imagine a day when Tsurugi hung around with girls." Hakuryuu smirked.
Tsurugi scowled. "Shut up, would you?"
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Hakuryuu scolded Ru-chan. She was about to walk to the house, as she found it fascinating (most people found it creepy, but I say that's a form of fascination). Ru-chan pouted as she could only stare at the house in front of her.
"Why, what will happen if we go in?" Miya perked up as she fidgeted with her sky blue hair.
"The owner doesn't appreciate people sneaking in." Hakuryuu explained.
Kairi looked at him in confusion, "Owner? It looks fucking abandoned."
"Not really."
Eri sighed, regretting that she had come here from the first place. The note seemed to be pointing at Tsurugi... so she thought it was his fault, however, Tsurugi looked like he never knew about it.
From Eri's right, Sato inhaled deeply and seethed. Somehow, Eri knew that she was distrustful at Tsurugi. She couldn't blame her, Eri was suspicious of the guy, despite him being labeled innocent a few moments ago.
Kari whimpered slightly, this went noticed by Ai, who suddenly wanted to say to her that everything was going to be okay. Ai fidgeted the end of her skirt. She knew she shouldn't have come here, yet the note seemed to blame Tsurugi and when she would confront Tsurugi, the note said she would find answers.
Ai exhaled and looked at the house in front of the group. She always knew there was a haunted house in this block, but she was definitely surprised when she saw it with her own eyes. Everything looked so old and darked and creepy... what is it with this house?
"But, they say if you visit the house when there's a full moon... there's a chance you can go inside. Without the owner knowing you were there." Hakuryuu admitted.
Tsurugi rolled his eyes. "As if people would believe that."
"When's the next full moon?" Miya asked.
"Next week," Ru-chan replied. "We should be able to see it at about seven in the evening."
"Let's meet after school." Ai said quietly.
"Yeah, let's kick some ass in there!" Kai pumped her fists.
Tsurugi's jaw dropped. "Seriously?! Why?!"
"You're coming to, you know. You're rather familiar with this street." Eri glared at Tsurugi.
"As much as I don't like her... she's right." Sato agreed reluctantly.
Tsurugi widened his eyes. "Oh no."
"Yeah, no excuses!" Kari smiled at Tsurugi.
"I'll come with you guys, too." Hakuryuu said, pitying Tsurugi.
"Okay, then." Kai said.
Secretly, Tsurugi was silently mouthing Hakuryuu a thank you.
Sato walked back home with Kari, as they were in the same block. Sato never met Kari in school, but she looked like she was excited to go to the house next week.
Even if Sato didn't know much about Kari, she couldn't help but crack a small smile on her lips as Kari grinned silently at herself. Kari looked like she didn't show any care that people would find her weird once they take a good look at the lopsided grin at her face.
"Nee, Okazaki-san... what's your class?" Kari suddenly asked her.
Sato widened her eyes. "How do you know my name?"
"Most people talk about you in my class, 1-B." Kari smiled.
Sato grunted. "What's your name, again?"
"Fujisaki Hikari. But call me Kari."
"Huh. Alright, I'm from 1-C." Sato replied to Kari's question earlier.
"Really?! That class is, like, the special class in the first year level." Kari's mood brightened.
"Well, I suppose." Sato rubbed the back of her head.
"Here's my stop. I'll see you, when I see you, Okazaki-san!" Kari grinned once she saw the street to her house.
"Sato." Sato said abruptly.
"What?"
"Call me Sato."
"Okay. Then, call me: Kari!" Kari smiled and then walked towards her house.
Sato cracked a smile and then walked down the sidewalk. I guess, she wasn't really that tough, huh? Wait, that was mean. Let me rephrase that: I guess, she wasn't always the tough bloke you'll always see in school, huh?
See, that's better.
Miya walked back to her house wondering what she would see inside the house. It was rather captivating and she was curious about the house. Her mind was wondering around wildly that she didn't notice there was a teenage boy in front of her.
"Oomph!" Miya landed on the floor with a thump.
"Are you okay?" A hand was held out to her.
Miya looked up to the boy she bumped to. "I'm really sorry... Amemiya?"
Amemiya Taiyou gave her a smile. "Hello, Miyazaki-san."
Heat rushed up to Miya's cheeks in embarrassment as she realized what she did. "I'm really sorry, Amemiya!"
"It's fine, really. Care to tell me what you're rushing about?" Amemiya asked and helped Miya stand up from the ground. Miya's skin started to tingle once she touched Amemiya's hand.
"I-it's nothing." Miya patted her skirt.
"Really? Well, let me escort you to your house." Amemiya gave her one of those heart-melting smiles.
Miya flushed red as she stammered, "I-it's fine."
"No way. It's dark out, you never know when a mugger might sneak up to your back."
"If it happens, I'll make sure to give him none of my things." Miya said, confidently.
Amemiya laughed. "Right, sure. Do you go this way?"
"Well, yeah. How do you know?" Miya suspiciously asked.
"I see you everyday. My house is not really far from yours."
Miya gave him a look and sighed. "Okay, then."
"Come on." Amemiya pulled her.
"Alright, alright!" Miya grumbled.
Amemiya just gave her a playful grin, which Miya almost returned.
"Kei~ you're here! You just missed them!" Sana called out to the said person.
Kei smiled at the older girl. "I know. But it's fine, really."
Sana shook her short brown hair, her bangs going out of place. "Kei~"
"Sanada, Kei, why are you two still here?" Yuu-chan walked to the balcony of a certain house.
"Ah, Yuu-chan!" Sana hugged Yuu-chan. Yuu-chan frowned as she fixed the violet headband she always wore once Sana broke their little hug.
"The Mistress asked for us here, Yuu-chan. You, too?" Kei asked politely.
"I guess she's showing us her new recruits." Yuu-chan voiced out her thoughts before leaning towards the balcony's ledge.
"Saw anyone interesting?" Sana jumped up and down, towering over her kouhai with a twinkle in her brown orbs.
Yuu-chan fidgeted her black hair, recalling the scene she had saw earlier. She admitted, "Not really."
"They're going to be back, right?" Kei piped up.
"Of course!" Sana guffawed. "Leave everything to Hakuryuu."
"And Shuu." Yuu-chan added.
Kei nodded and then looked out at the evening sky.
Deep inside the three girls' hearts, they were definitely excited when the day comes.
Long time, no write! ;D
Anyway, thanks for the supports! I'll try updating faster this time~
Review, maybe? :P
