So I'm happy to say that I'm almost done with this case! I'm currently writing the second to last chapter and I'm way ahead! Which is perfect because you will all hate me until the next chapter is up. Thank you everyone who has checked out The Haunt Continues and given me feedback I really appreciate it. I'll try to update that frequently seeing as the chapters are much shorter. In the meantime, enjoy!


Chapter 7-Yellow Eyes

Day 3 8:04 P.M.

"How sure are we that he wasn't a crackpot?" Monk asked from the backseat of Yasuhara's car.

"Very," Yasuhara said at the same time Kiko said, "Not very."

"Well, that's just great, what's our next step? We can't go to Naru with bogus info," Monk huffed and crossed his arms.

"Research!" Yasuhara declared.

"Research what?"

"Actually, he's got a point," Kiko said, turning around to face Monk from the front seat. "All we have to do is go to the library and look him up and see if he is who he says he is. I don't know if what he said is true, but I know he believes it's true."

"It's the only lead we have so I say we look into it." Yasuhara pulled into the parking lot by the dorms they were staying in. "What have we got to lose?"

"You want me to answer that honestly?" Monk asked.

"No," the two up front decided.


"Where's Hara-san?" Naru asked as Ayako walked into Base. "And Father Brown. Why are you alone?"

"Relax, Naru, I wasn't wandering the campus alone," Ayako chided, walking over to the couch. She sat at one end of it and turned to place her legs on the rest of the room next to her. She draped an arm over the back of the couch and ran her other hand through her auburn hair. "John took Masako up to her room and he's going to stay with her until the rest of us turn in. He made sure to watch that I made it in here before he walked her up. Where are the others?"

"They went off in search of a lead, they should be back soon," Naru answered, putting his notebook down. "What happened to Hara-san?"

"Here." Ayako tossed the voice recorder to Mai who, luckily, caught it. "I don't think you're going to have to do much editing to clean it up. The message is there." Mai handed the recorder to her boss. "I would also suggest that we all call it a night early once Monk and the others get back. I'm not sure I can handle listening to that again until tomorrow. My head's killing me."

Lin pulled a bottle of aspirin from his pocket and handed it to Mai who walked it over to the priestess. "Thanks," she said to both of them. She then swallowed two pills dry. "Did you find anything in the E.V.P.s from earlier?"

"Nothing we can use to help ID our spirit or how to remove it from the property," Naru admitted.

"What we've found only confirms our earlier suspicion of one male spirit and many female spirits," Lin added as Mai sat back down at her seat by the monitors.

"I managed to ID one of the female spirits in the session from the basement of the Science Building. It was Airi, one of the victims who committed suicide," Mai added.

"Well, what we caught won't really add much more than we already know." Ayako slouched down into a lying down position and rested her head of the couch's arm. "But there is one thing."

"And that would be?"

"He's aware of us and what we're here to do," she said as she closed her eyes. "I wouldn't be surprised if one of us becomes the next target, which is why I asked John to do a blessing on both her room and ours. And I already had charms posted in both."

"Which is why no one should be wandering alone," Naru replied, a hint of malice in his voice.

"John watched me walk in, and he's with Masako now, so no one's alone." Ayako had her eyes closed, but Mai was sure she had rolled them. She shivered. "God, is it cold in here or is it just me?"

"Thermometer hasn't changed, it's still twenty degrees Celsius," Lin answered as he typed on his laptop.

"I'm a little cold, too," Mai said as she absently rubbed her arms. She was mildly surprised to find goosebumps and suppressed a shiver.

Naru looked between the two of them and let out a breath. He was looking worse for wear, Mai had noticed. I don't think he's been sleeping well, she told herself. Mai, stop it. You haven't had a full night's sleep in months, let alone good sleep. You can't chide him for something you're not even able to do.

"Have either of you eaten?" he asked.

"Not hungry," came the reply from both girls.

"Then go get some rest, both of you," Naru said, his arms folded in front on him and eyes closed. "We'll go over everything we gathered in the morning after breakfast. Let John know to stay with Hara-san until the others get back."

"But Naru-"

"No buts," Naru stopped her with a look. "We'll regroup in the morning. Hopefully, Yasuhara's lead turned out to be authentic."

"Works for me, G'night boys," Ayako said with a mock salute as she stood up and stretched. "Let's go, Mai."

"Okay," Mai said meekly, as she followed the priestess out. "Good night, Naru, good night, Lin."

"Good night." It was Lin who responded. He waited until the footsteps and light chatter of the two women had faded. Ayako was complaining about needing a shower. He heard them fade into what must have been the stairwell and turned to his young charge. "I'm surprised you didn't escort them."

"I can see them on the cameras."

"That's not what I meant." Naru ignored him. Realizing he wasn't going to get the rise that he was somewhat hoping for, he sighed and changed the subject. "So what's our next step? The campus is too big to trap the spirit and he seems to disappear once he's finished with a possession. He also seems to be getting stronger the longer he's around, I agree with the theory that he's draining the girls. Along with your dreams, I'm almost positive he's going to focus on the team. So what are you thinking, Naru? What are we going to do?"

Naru watched the monitors until he saw Ayako and Mai reach their room. He sighed and leaned back in his chair. "I don't know," he admitted bitterly.


"So he's not a crackpot," Monk said very slowly as he read the article himself over Yasuhara's shoulder. "And that picture is definitely a younger version of the Takuma we met. What do you know about that?"

"Hey, my gut was right on this one, maybe I'm psychic too!" Yasuhara gave a cheeky grin to his "lover."

"Wouldn't surprise me, not with the group we have," Monk said with a shrug and continued reading. "Plus, I've always thought there was something weird about you, just didn't think that maybe psychic was it."

"You're so cruel!"

"Hey, I think I found something," Kiko chimed in, capturing the attention of the boys. "I'm going through the newspapers that we have from around twenty-five to thirty years ago and-"

"I thought you didn't have anything for Akita?"

"Yasu, let me finish, please. Thank you. Now, I may not have anything for Akita, but I do have papers from surrounding cities." She pushed one across the table and pointed at a specific article. "So far, I've found three articles about missing girls between sixteen and twenty and two articles shortly after of murdered girls in those ages. Different dates and different cities but all in the Akita Prefecture. Takuma said ten definite murders in this town, but he suspected more."

"Okay, but who's to say they are even connected, I would think that everyone would know of a serial killer with this many victims, let alone the ten that were confirmed." Monk scratched his head. "Isn't like three murders make it serial?"

"Something like that," Yasuhara answered and leaned back. "Remember what Takuma said, 'the cover-up job was brilliant.' City officials probably did everything in their power to make sure the media did not publicize the crimes. Probably even paid off the families of the victims to keep their mouths shut with the promise that the cops would catch this guy."

"Yasu, look up murders in this prefecture dating from twenty-five to thirty-five years ago. Monk and I will go through the papers that we have here. Takuma said that he believed there was closer to fifty victims. Let's see how many unsolved murders of girls these age there were back then that were reported to the media."

"God, the only serial killer I can think in Japan that had more victims than that is Ishikawa Miyuki," Monk shook his head and then furrowed his brow. "I'm going to assume no relation to the Ishikawa family in Kyoto."

"Probably not, or if anything, a distant relation," Yasuhara answered. "She was the midwife that neglected newborns until they died because they had nowhere to go, right?"

"It's debatable whether or not it was the neglect that killed them, but they did not die of natural causes," Kiko replied then sighed. "You also had, what was his name? Kawamata Hatsutaro, he murdered twenty-five children right?"

"They were infants too, foster children. Bastard tried to get the money to run away and start a new life." Monk shook his head again with a sigh. "Let's try to get something done, we still have to check in with Naru before we turn in."

"I already texted him that we were back and just confirming what our source said," Yasuhara explained as he began typing.

"Okay, let's get to work."


A little more than an hour later, all fresh, clean, exhausted, and ready for bed, Ayako and Mai sat on their beds in their room. Of course, both of them were too riled up to sleep. Mai had pulled out some English work, she needed to work on her vocab and verbs. Ayako was reading some romance novel with a rather handsome shirtless man on the cover.

But something else was bugging her. "Ayako?" She finally had gathered her voice to speak.

"Yes, Mai?" The woman turned her attention from her book to the girl.

"What happened to Masako? I know she had to have seen something." Mai watched as the woman tensed and sat up.

She pulled her knee up to her chest and hugged it. "Honestly, Mai, I'd rather forget about it until the morning. And relive the story only once, you know?"

Mai nodded and tried to return to her work. Now unless she could translate the thoughts running through her head into English, she really wasn't going to end up doing anything productive for the moment. She sighed and closed her notebook. She placed that and her textbook into her bag and pulled out her math books.

"Mai?"

Mai's head perked up at her name. "Yeah?"

"How are you doing?"

She knew this was going to come around. It wasn't the first time she had heard it that day. Did Ayako put Kiko up to talking to me, she wondered. "I'm hiding from an abusive ex-boyfriend who I'm learning wasn't just physically abusive, and staying in a violently haunted college dorm room. Things are going just great."

"Sarcasm isn't a good look for you," Ayako replied with a smirk, but sobered up. "What do you mean he wasn't just physically abusive?"

"Well…" Mai took a breath and had to decide whether to own up to what she learned or to lie. How many more lies could she tell? "I talked to Kiko and-"

"Kiko? When did you-"

"Earlier today, and by the way, I know you had her go to my apartment. Thanks for not telling her more than what she needed to know at the time, she told me." Okay, Mai, now or never. "She had a friend in a similar position. And as she explained what happened to her friend, how he was verbally and emotionally abusive first in little small ways that go unnoticed, I realized the similarities." Okay, so you went with a lie, but for a good reason. Kiko wouldn't want you going around and telling her business to everyone. "Though, it was more noticeable for her friend and Kiko helped get her friend out after he started beating her."

"He was verbally abusive to you? What did he say?" Ayako pressed and Mai felt a pang in her chest.

"He was manipulative really, always wanting me to hang out with him. Even convinced me to skip work a couple of times. I bailed on Michiru and Keiko too…"

"Mai, it's not your fault." Ayako was shaking her head. Mai barely noticed her own tears welling up.

"No, it's not my fault that he hit me. It's not my fault he chose me as his target. It's not my fault he manipulated me. I can agree there." She took a deep breath to keep herself from choking up. Her throat had become so tight and itchy in a matter of seconds. "What is my fault is letting it get this far. It's my fault that I was blinded by my naivety and couldn't see the signs that he was no good. I don't blame myself entirely, but I do have my fair share."

The priestess's chest ached for the poor girl. She was too young to really understand that these things exist. She was too young to have grown up so fast. She had been so lighthearted a year ago, but she had dealt with so much darkness the last few months and Ayako hated that. She hated that Mai had to learn the hard way about how bad relationships could be. It was her first relationship for crying out loud!

But Ayako pushed her own feelings aside and got out of her bed. She sat down on Mai's and wrapped her arms around the now crying girl. She rubbed circles on the girl's back as she quietly sobbed into her chest.

"It's okay to feel bad about what happened. It's okay to feel that you share the blame. It's okay to regret that you even accepted the date in the first place." Ayako felt thin arms wrap around her torso. They gripped her tight. "What's not okay, is that he did this to you. He went out of his way to hurt you and he did it. He was nothing more than a bully trying to get something out of you and you didn't give in. So he beat you instead. Just know that, if I actually could, I'd deal with him in such a painful manner he would never do this to another girl." She looked up and out the window in thought. "And he'd probably never be able to procreate."

That last comment managed to gain a laugh out of the high schooler.


Day 4 8:23 A.M.

Everyone was up and about a little later this morning. Mai even managed to cover up her bruised eye with makeup today. Naru and Lin had been up first as usual and grabbed breakfast first. The rest of the group went a little later.

Now here they all were with mugs of coffee or tea, three seated on the couch, two seated with their backs to the monitors, one on either side of the couch, and the last two at the conference table.

"Yesterday, I had you conduct several E.V.P. sessions. Two in the Science Building, one in the Tech building, and two in the Academic building. While Monk, Yasuhara, and Kiko took it upon themselves to hunt down a lead, John, Hara-san, and Matsuzaki-san performed another session in the Science building," Naru explained as he looked to Lin to play the clips. "This first one is from the basement of the Science building."

Lin hit play.

"Can you tell us your name?" Monk's voice could be hears clearly. Naru had adjusted it so it wasn't booming like the day before.

"Airi…"

"Did you die here?"

There wasn't an answer to John's question.

"Were you the victim of the malicious spirit here?"

"Run….help….time…."

A whimper of another female spirit could be heard in the background, but what it might have said couldn't be determined.

"Is one of the girls who committed suicide here with us?"

"Please…stop…help…him…"

"Was there an incident that is the cause of the haunting now?"

"Madness!...Insanity!..." The other voice that Mai heard. It was just as desperate and intense as it had been the day before.

Stomping was heard along with, "Little bitch can't get enough!" The laugh continued until the recording stopped.

"The other sessions either didn't reveal much or they had much of the same. What we can be sure of though, is that the Science building seems to be the hiding place for many of the benign spirits," Naru explained, he turned to Yasuhara and Kiko at the conference table. Monk had also stood up and joined them in organizing their notes. "You had a late night, what did you come up with?"

"So yesterday, I got this cryptic call asking to meet at the local diner," Yasuhara explained, adjusting his glasses. "Naturally curious, the three of us went to check it out."

"We met Honda Takuma, supposedly a former police chief for this town. His son is in charge now and he got Yasuhara's number there," Monk continued. "I honestly thought this guy was a crackpot, but when we got back last night we found out he was who he said he was."

"According to Honda-san, there was a serial killer in the Akita Prefecture about twenty-five years ago. It was confirmed that he killed ten high school and college age girls in this town alone, before Takuma caught him," Kiko added.

"He was never actually caught," Yasuhara corrected. "He apparently killed himself in the basement of this building."

"Like that's not unsettling or anything," Ayako commented under her breath.

"Takuma had enough evidence to convict the man, whose name was Nakajima Yori, but when he finally got the tip that he was hiding out at this school, Nakajima had hung himself," Yasuhara added. "City officials went to great lengths to keep the story from the press, possibly even paid off the families of victims to keep them quiet as well."

"Honda-san had said that he believed Nakajima's victim count was too low for what he found. His pattern was too well thought out for him to be a beginner. So we looked through newspapers from the surrounding cities and towns to find any reports of unsolved murders of girls around the same age," Kiko continued.

"What we found, was that between thirty-five and twenty-five years ago there were more than thirty unsolved disappearances or murders of girls between sixteen and twenty years old," Monk said. "Are they connected? No one's made the connection before us, and we may never know for sure. But with the amount of spirits Masako has sensed here, I think Honda-san was right to suspect a higher body count."

"On thing I don't quite understand," John started, his hand slightly raised as though in school. "If this man's actions were kept so tightlipped, then why can't we find any newspapers on the town in the library for recent years? Or even back then? There shouldn't be anything to hide."

"That's the million dollar question," Yasuhara answered. "That's been bugging me, too. I don't have an answer for it."

"Neither do the librarians," Kiko said with a roll of her eyes.

"We also have the final E.V.P. session from last night, Hara-san, are you up for listening to it again?" Naru interrupted, changing the subject.

"Of course," Masako replied, but Mai could see the hesitation in her face. Ayako didn't look like she wanted to listen to it again either.

"Third floor classroom, Science Building, John."

"Ayako."

"Masako."

"Can you tell us your name?" John asked.

"Get out…save yourself…ah!" A terrified girl could be heard. Also what sounded like someone being pushed into the wall.

"Did the man here kill you?" Masako asked, then she let out a small sound. "No…"

"Please! Why!"

"Masako?" They all could hear footsteps as they heard Ayako's concerned calls. "Masako, what do you see?"

"You've got to stop him. Please. He's going to-gah!"

"Should we stop?" John suggested.

"No!" Masako exclaimed, they all heard an animalistic growl and slapping sounds. "Oh my god…"

"Take it, slut! You're mine!"

Grunting and whimpers of pain were heard.

"Gah! Please stop! Stop him! Stop him!"

"Even death won't kill me!"

"John, she's hyperventilating, stop the session," Ayako said.

"End of E.V.P session." And the tape finally stopped.

"Hara-san, what did you see?" Naru asked, breaking the silence.

Speaking was the last thing Masako wanted to do. She was almost regretting eating breakfast with how nauseous she felt. Mai knew the feeling, she didn't need Masako to confirm what they all heard on the tape. A shiver went down her spine as the medium straightened in her seat on the couch.

"I saw a young girl, maybe sixteen, terrified in the corner of the room," she began, doing her best to keep her tone calm and matter of fact. "I couldn't quite hear her, so we conducted the session. After we began, I started to hear her clearer and then…" She took a breath. "I saw him. The spirit possessing the students and staff. He held the girl against the wall and…" She sat even straighter and clenched her fists. Her jaw tightened, but she had to say it. "He was raping her. It wasn't a vision. It wasn't a memory. It was a spirit sexually assaulting another spirit. He's even more of a monster in death than in life."

Everyone was silent for a minute. Probably five minutes. Either way it was a long time that they sat silently glancing at each other. Finally, Kiko handed Yasuhara a piece of paper and nodded. He nodded in return and walked to the medium.

"Was this him?" he asked. Everyone knew without hesitation that the paper held the picture of the madman who killed himself to avoid being caught. How they found it, they weren't sure they wanted to know.

"Yes." Masako's voice sounded cold and hard. As though it took every ounce of strength to keep her composure. "That's the bastard."


Day 4, 3:09 P.M.

Once again, Mai was stuck in Base with Naru and Lin who were not up for any talking. Granted, even if they were talking it would probably be about the case and what they had learned earlier. With what Yasuhara found out and what Masako witnessed, I think I can handle the silence, Mai told herself as she peered over the highlighted articles on the conference table.

Thirty-three unsolved kidnappings and murders, along with the ten confirmed by the former police chief, Mai continued as she shook her head. Along with the numerous amount of spirits here, and if you include the three victims that killed themselves, we're looking at around fifty victims.

She hung her head and sighed. She still stood over the table with her palms resting on it. This is almost as bad as the Urado case… She closed her eyes and just stood still. Probably even worse, while Urado was trying to live despite being dead, this monster is brutalizing woman simply because he can. And in the afterlife no less! How long until he decides to start killing he students after he rapes them? Unless-

She walked over to the bulletin board where the floor plan had been set up. "Mai?" The men in the room had taken notice. The lower half of the board was a whiteboard and Mai grabbed a marker.

"Do we have a timeline of the attacks? Both the attempts and assaults?" she asked.

"Not written out, but yes," Lin replied. Mai had begun to write on the right side of the board.

"We have Chinatsu's attempted assault on Wednesday," she said, drawing an arrow pointing right at Chinatsu's name and the date. "And then the last assault was Rina last Thursday right?"

"That's correct, there was almost a full week between the two incidents," Lin answered.

Lin relayed the information of the assaults and attempted assaults and Mai mapped it out on the whiteboard. Four assaults and five attempts over the last three months had been recorded on the board all within a week apart, with a couple of exceptions that left an extra week in between the occurrences. Mai tapped her chin. "What about the suicides? When did they occur?"

Lin told her and Mai wrote it down and examined her work, revealing it to the men behind her. "Just what I thought, each of them died about a week after their assault," she determined aloud. She turned and saw Naru assume his thinking pose.

"So you're assuming this spirit was responsible for the suicides?"

"I'm assuming anything is possible," Mai replied, crossing her arms. "This guy was a monster in life and in death. He brutally murdered many girls possibly in the span of ten years and now he's possessing students to brutalize more girls. Either way, even if he isn't responsible directly for the suicides, his next step would be to possess one of the students, rape another, and then kill her. Perhaps even kill both of them."

"If we want to dive further into that theory, he could be recreating how he became such a killer," Lin suggested. Mai looked at him quizzically. "Prior to murdering his victims, he was most likely just a rapist. He might have kept tabs on his victims in the beginning and knew if they killed themselves. Then he escalated to murder. Similar to what we see at this school."

"It's definitely a working theory. It makes sense, but we still don't know what triggered the haunting," Naru said, still in his thinking pose. "Nakajima killed himself twenty-five years ago, and the assaults and activity are recent. Having only began three months ago. It's possible he was dormant, but then something would have had to wake him up."

"Unless…" Lin stopped himself, not wanting to say it out loud.

"Unless what?" Mai looked at him, but soon understood. "Unless the nine attacks were only a small piece of what Nakajima has done."

"Precisely."


"He's in another meeting, how convenient?" Ayako muttered as she, John and Yasuhara walked away from the empty office and the rather annoyed secretary.

Yasuhara looked to John with a raised brow. "She's convinced that Yamasaki-san is hiding something," he explained. "Remember how he didn't seem too fond of which of us was Kazuya?"

"I see," Yasuhara nodded in understanding. "What exactly do you think he's hiding?"

Ayako shook her head. "I don't know, but I really don't trust him." The three of them walked towards the outside door. "And I really don't want to walk outside again, it's going to start snowing soon."

"Yup, looks like they aren't going to delay this storm any longer. It's supposed to start at six, right?" Yasuhara held the door for both of the investigators.

"That's what I think the weather report said," John replied. "It also said the storm is supposed to last well into tomorrow and possibly even to Sunday."

"We're never going to get out of this place, whether we stop this thing or not, we're going to be stuck here," Ayako grumbled, stuffing her hands into her pockets.


"Hey, where's Mai?" Monk asked walking into Base, Kiko and Masako tagging along behind them.

"She went to make tea." Lin clicked away on his laptop. He had earbuds in and must have been listening to audio recordings.

"And Naru?"

"Restroom." Obviously, the Chinese man wasn't that concerned over the whereabouts of the two investigators. His Shiki would let him know if anything was wrong.

"Well, that's great, Ayako and John and Yasuhara are probably on their way back," Monk said shaking his head. "I still wish we knew where those newspaper articles are. And why there doesn't seem to be any record of them in the library itself."

"The internet wasn't very helpful, either," Kiko added. "I did find newspaper articles of recent events, but nothing dating as far back as we're looking for."

"The newspapers seem to be rather light as far as information," Masako noted. "As though they don't want anything negative to affect their sales."

"What do we have going on here?" Monk asked, noticing the bulletin board.

"Mai's theory," Lin responded, taking out his earbuds. "There appears to be a pattern with the attacks, all of them are within a week apart, if you count the suicides."

"She thinks the suicides are because of Nakajima?" Masako asked.

"It's a theory, but it makes sense," Lin replied, standing up. "And if this pattern continues, we should have until Monday before the next attack."

"Unless he draws enough energy from the students and us to attack sooner," Kiko said with a frown.

"How are you feeling?" Monk asked. "You didn't seem as tired when we got back last night."

"Not as bad as I had been," she admitted. "Once we left the campus and got to the diner, my headache was gone and I felt more energized."

"Meaning, solving this case as quickly as possible has become even more of a priority," Lin said.


Mai had finished a cup of tea and poured herself another and one for Naru before she decided to head back to Base. She knew she shouldn't stay too far away for too long, she was lucky that Naru and Lin decided that they should be safe from an attack for another day or two.

She wondered about what Lin had thought of, that the attacks over the last few months are only a piece of Nakajima's terror. She thought back to what the demon in her dreams had said, though she was grateful he hadn't paid her a visit again the night before. We're looking at the wrong incident, she remembered.

But wouldn't the other disappearances and murders in the surrounding areas be the other incident? It helped us figure out part of what was going on, but we're missing something.

We are still missing why and when and what started this haunting. What incident made the dormant spirit of a serial rapist and killer begin to attack again?

She sighed and headed back for Base. Naru won't be happy if I give him cold tea again, she reminded herself.

She stopped and felt a shiver go down her spine. It was very quiet on the first floor of the dorms. Most of the students were staying on the second and third floors or were in class right now. She knew that classes were cancelled once the storm started to ensure that professors and students made it home safely. But she knew she wasn't alone.

She turned around and let out a relieved breath. "Sorry, Naru, you scared me," Mai said, giving a small smile more so for herself as she laughed at her own suspicion.

She took a couple steps toward him and held out one of the cups.

"Here, I made you some tea." Why isn't he saying anything?

Mai's silent question was answered soon enough as both mugs fell to the carpeted floor with a thump. She had been pushed up against the door with her boss's lips hungrily pressing against hers.

Had Mai been the same girl she was a year ago, hell, six months ago, she would have melted into the kiss. It was everything she had dreamed and hoped for, right? But it felt awkward, even though he seemed to be doing everything right. He held one hand cradling her neck and the other at the small of her back, and the kiss was hungry but not forceful. But something felt wrong.

Naru isn't this type of person, Mai reminded herself as she felt his hands wander.

Her suspicions were confirmed when she felt him bite her lip. Hard.

She gasped and pulled back only to see Naru's wicked grin and she knew in that moment that this was definitely not Naru.

His eyes were bright yellow.

She failed to scream when he placed a hand over her mouth and opened the door she was up against. He pushed her into the room locking the door behind them.


*Barricades myself in my house until the next chapter* Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me. Please don't hate me.

I'll have the next chapter up probably sometime next week. Hope you enjoyed or well, that I made you feel something with this chapter. Review! :D
