13thRebels - I was thinking of doing that but I thought it'd be too obvious. Maybe I'll work in something like that later when the rest of Kaidou's family comes in.

4PhoneixFeathers - Thank you. I like long reviews, it gives me a better insight as to what the readers think and want.

Slyvenclaw - So I can't divulge too much about Saiki's brother as it would cause spoilers, but its gonna be interesting. So when it comes to Lotus's intelligence she uses it with her copy ability. With her ability to copy something she can learn things after only seeing it once, and her high intelligence allows her to apply those skills.


This is Lotus

This is Saiki

This is Saiki and Lotus

~This is the thoughts of others~


Activate Spirit Summoning! - Reita's Secret Technique!

Lotus and Saiki sat next to one another enjoying lunch, or they would be enjoying it if it wasn't for a certain purple-haired Medium sitting in front of them.

Reita clapped his hands putting them in a prayer position bowing his head.

"Please, Saiki I'm begging you! Please help me out!"

"No."

"Then Lotus you need to help me! Please!"

"I'm pretty sure whatever you do is gonna be skeevy, so no," Lotus said

Reita pointed towards another table where two girls were eating.

"That girl over there is Yoriko Itano. She's in my class, isn't she hot?"

"I don't care."

"Her birthday is December 3rd, her blood type is O, she has no allergies…."

"None of what you're saying makes me want to help you."

"I feel like I should hit him. Should I hit him?"

"Please do."

"Her measurements are 81-59-83, She likes to play music and plays synthesizer-"

Reita was interrupted as Lotus dropped her fist atop of the Medium's head. Not too hard but enough to stun the guy. While he was dazed Saiki hooked his arm with Reita's lifting the guy out of his seat.

"We're calling the police."

"I got that all from her guardian spirit! I pumped him for information every day for weeks," Reita explained

"You sound like a detective trying to crack one last case."

"I know everything there is to know about her, right down to the number of moles on her body," Reita spoke with a creepy smile on his face.

"The law is designed for this sort of people."

"I feel like I should hit him again."

"Whenever I think you can't get any more perverted you go and surprise me," Lotus said

"I take that as a compliment." Reita countered

"You shouldn't."

"If you like her so much why don't you just talk to her?"

"Man, I get so nervous when I'm around her," Reita said bashfully.

"Not my problem."

"Plus how can someone with no shame get nervous?" Lotus said

"That means one of you has to use your powers to make her super into me and make her do whatever I want!" Reita exclaimed

"You're disgusting."

"It's like he's begging to be hit again. Maybe if I smack him hard enough I can knock some of that perverseness out of him."

"A hit hard enough to knock any sense into him might just kill him."

"Oh well I figured you'd both say no to that," Reita said

"No, you didn't."

"If you thought that you wouldn't have asked in the first place," Lotus said

"Okay that's fine I'll do it myself. All I ask is that you don't interfere with my actions!" Reita said

"I won't unless it gets unethical or too inappropriate for the Teen rating of a story."

"That goes double for me," Lotus added

"I got this after all I got my own unique powers," Reita said

Yoriko and her friend had finished their lunches and the girl had tossed her milk carton in the trash. When she was out of sight Reita grabbed the discarded carton.

"I can pick up a girl easy," Reita said

"You shouldn't pick that up."

"He hasn't even started yet, and this whole thing makes me feel uneasy," Lotus said


Lotus and Saiki followed Reita, who followed Yoriko outside. The object of the Medium's affection was sitting alone at a bench reading a book. Reita hid behind a tree, making himself appear suspicious, while Lotus and Saiki stood next to him out in the open.

"Well, are you going to talk to her or not? Now's your chance."

"No!" Reita exclaimed

"Who knows what you'd do if we weren't here."

"I have a feeling it's something that would end with Reita getting carried off by Coach Matsuzaki."

"This gives me the chance to show off my new ability, spirit summoning. You'll be so jealous." Reita bragged

"I wonder if he forgot that I'll be able to copy his ability later?"

"I'm gonna have this guy possess me," Reita spoke putting his arm over the shoulder of an invisible figure.

"You know I can't see him."

"I can, here Saiki."

Lotus hooked her arm with Saiki's and with Lotus's use of psychometry she was able to project the spirit seeing ability onto Saiki.

When the ghost was visible Saiki could see a good-looking guy with blond hair.

"This is Raiya, he was quite the player back in the day when he was alive," Reita said

"Ciao." Raiya greeted

The ghost looked to Lotus giving her a wink. The pink-haired girl just blanched giving the ghost a blank look.

"He used to be the most in-demand host in all the clubs, made a move on every chick he met. But when he was dating 48 girls at once one of the girls stabbed him to death."

"Yeah, I nailed everyone on the chicks from a certain overpopulated Idol group," Raiya boasted

"Is this guy for real?"

"He's so much worse than Reita. I'm not saying he deserved what happened to him…..but I see why it happened."

"Posses!"

Reita made a few hand signs then Raiya's spirit slid into Reita's body.

"Now I can nail all those girls in that idol group." Reita, or rather, Raiya spoke through Reita.

"No, you can't."

"You don't have a problem with me doing this right?" Reita asked

"You can switch back?"

"Oh yeah, it's still me in here. You know there are a ton of ghost out there that wanna experience being human again, so they'll all be lining up to help me. Does that sound okay to you two?" Reita said

"Suit yourself."

"My previous statement about what I'll allow still stands," Lotus said

Knowing that neither were going to interfere Reita shot off after Yoriko, he looked like a lion stalking its prey. Yoriko was startled as Reita appeared out of nowhere taking a seat right next to her.

"Toritsuka?"

The girl was presented with a pink flower.

"Thanks for picking me, babe."

"I didn't…"

"~Toritsuka seems different somehow.~"

"Hey your really cute you know that," Reita said

"What!" Yoriko flushed looking away from Reita. "Don't tease me like that."

"Are you blushing? That makes you even cuter. I can't contain myself, can I kiss you now?"

"Wait, what?!"

Yoriko panicked as Reita started to lean in with pucker lips.

"Toritsuka let's slow down."

"~This is crazy. Suddenly he wants to kiss me? But….~" Yoriko closed her eyes as Reita leaned in closer.

"That dead host is smooth."

"I can't believe this is working."

"~Alright Raiya I'll take it from here!~"

"~Oh really? But things were getting good.~"

"~But kissing a guy so soon is-!~"

Yoriko opened her eyes and freaked at the horrible puckered face the real Reita was making.

"Ah, you pervert!"

*SMACK*

"Ow!"


"Well look at that he got hit again after all."

Reita now sported a nice red handprint on his cheek from where Yoriko had slapped him.

"I was so close," Reita sulked

"Don't feel too bad, girls are as plentiful as the stars in the sky and equally as out of reach for you."

Saiki turned to leave, Lotus going as well, but they stopped as Reita called out to them.

"Hey wait a second I'm not done with this girl yet. I've got one more ghost here. Meet Rentaro."

The ghost of a teen boy came forth.

"Seems kind of bland."

"What! That's so mean! I'm crying!" Rentaro said

"Really?"

"He may seem bland at first glance but his life before he died was nothing but. Whether it was classmates, coworkers, random twins, gorgeous stewardess, gross old librarians, this dude was beloved by every girl he met." Reita explained

"Was he in a harem series?"

"I'm more curious as to how he became a ghost."

"But he was so oblivious and non-threatening he didn't go out with any of them," Reita said

"Um, so what's going on?" Rentaro asked with a bashful smile.

"Yup definitely a harem."

"With his adorability pheromones, it's a done deal."

Reita put a hand on Rentaro's shoulder and the ghost went into Reita's body.

"Here we go."


"Whoa, is this really working?"

"Reita hasn't even talked to her yet, and she's already thinking of him."

"~No one's ever called me cute before, it was nice. I mean I wasn't interested in him before but now-who wants a guy like that!~"

Reita calmly approached Yoriko.

"~Toritsuka? What does he want now? I swear if he gets fresh again I'll scream.~"

"Sorry about before. I was so forward and I didn't take your feelings into consideration. I was such a jerk to you." Reita apologized

"~Aw when you apologize like that I can't stay mad at you.~"

"Don't worry about it," Yoriko said

"Oh really? I'm so relieved. Your opinion means so much to me I couldn't bear that you hate me." Reita said

"I don't know if its because Rentaro is amazing or because Yoriko is a pushover but this could actually work."

"Yeah, it's crazy how well this is going. But I can kinda see why the guy had a harem. Boy, he is nothing like Reita that's for sure." Lotus said

Saiki raised a brow looking at Lotus. Was that the kind of guy she was into? What kind of guy did Lotus like anyway? That kind of thought wasn't something that would cross Saiki's mind but with this unprecedented crush he developed thoughts like this seemed to come and go quite often.

"~Good job Rentaro your the best!~" Reita thought

"~Eh? Did I do something?~"

"Hey, that thing earlier do you wanna?" Yoriko asked before puckering her lips.

Reita wasted no time going for Yoriko, but he ended up slipping on a random banana peel that had somehow made its way onto the boy's path.

"Whoa!"

"Ah!"

The two teens collided with one another and ended up landing rather harshly on the floor.

"Ow, ow, ow," Reita chanted holding his head. "Are you okay?"

"You know for one second there I thought you weren't such a bad guy after all but you made me think again!" Yoriko spoke calmly with a foreboding tone.

Reita's fall ended with him landing atop of Yoriko his hand on her chest.

"Pervy scum!"

Lotus and Saiki had already started walking away so they didn't see Yoriko slap Reita, but they sure heard it.

"There's a harem cliché for ya."
