*Third's Pov*

"Let's Play...Futakuchi-Onna~!"

....

As usual, the mouths had disappeared...just like how they appeared moments ago.

Hiroshi: *Pant*....*Pant*

Manaka: Hiroshi...Hiroshi! Are you okay?!!

Hiroshi: Yeah...I'm fine...

Yuma: Dude! What happend?! You zone out all of a sudden!

Hiroshi: The mouths...they appeared... didn't you guys see them...?

They shook their heads no. Which meant only thing. Only Hiroshi can be able to see them...

Hiroshi: I...they were there...like what happend before, they were whispering "Death" to me...

Kaede: Anything else...?

Hiroshi then remembered what they had said before the mouths had vanished.

Hiroshi: They said...Let's play...Futakichi-Onna...

Kamishiro's eyes went wide while the others remained confused.

Seiya: Futakichi-Onna?

Yuma: Whose that?

Manaka: Kaede-chan, do you know?

Luckily, they had a ghost expert in their team. The gothic girl nodded.

Kaede: Oh yes. I know. There's a story behind everything....

Seiya: Well don't leave us in suspense, Kamishiro. What's the story for this...?

Kaede: Futakichi-Onna is a type of spirit that are usually characterized by their two mouths. A normal one located on her face and second one on the back of the head beneath the hair. There, the woman's skull splits apart, forming lips, teeth and a tongue, creating an entirely functional second mouth.

Manaka: Holy shit...that's disturbing.

Kaede: That's not all...From OOPARTs monthly. I have heard some rumors going around that there's an actual one located in a school far off from Tokyo to here in Ikebukuro at K Academy.

Manaka: K Academy?!

Kaede: Yep...Here's what I know about that rumor...

.....

-Futakuchi-Onna-

"Hey, have you heard the rumors?"

"What rumor...?"

"At K Academy, there's a rumor going around about a dead student appearing at night..."

"Are you trying to scare me?!"

"I'm not! This actually happened! Okay! A girl who went to that school actually went to school at night..."

"Why would she do that?"

"Apparently, she forgot her homework under her desk and snuck back into the school to go get it."

"And then...?"

"She walked down the stairs all the way towards her classroom...just as she entered the room, she about to get and her homework and leave..."

"...."

"But then she noticed she wasn't alone in the classroom...She heard a grumbling noise"

"Ooooh...Freaky!"

"Yeah! It probably startled her! It was most likey she heard someone stomach was rumbling. Just as she was about to leave...another girl had appeared before her. Someone who shouldn't be there besides her..."

"So it was another female student?"

"That what it seems like to her at first...but..."

"She had asked the girl what she was doing here...? The other mysterious girl replied..."

"I WAS HAVING DINNER...BUT...I'M STILL HUNGRY...YOU...LOOK DELICIOUS!!!"

....

"After that, the girl who went to get her homework was never seen again after that..."

....

Kaede: That's the rumor of Futakichi-Onna...

Seiya: *Scared* ?!

The conversation dwindles leaving an unsettling tense atmosphere.

Yuma: Whoa...so it's a freaky girl that can eat people?!

Manaka: That's one way to put it...

Kaede: Yeah...the original story about the Futakichi-Onna wasn't that bad. It used to be a story about a miser who lived alone and was a stingy person. Until he met a woman who claimed who won't eat. So he took her as his bride...Until he received a shocking surprise when noticed the rice they made were steadily decreasing and he pretended to leave to find out the culprit...which turned out to be his wife as she grew a second mouth from her hair and ate the rice.

Seiya: Okay! Okay! Enough! I don't need to hear anymore!

Manaka: Lol. Scaredy-Cat.

Seiya: Quiet you.

Hiroshi: So that's where I have to be at...K Academy...

Kaede: Yes. I supposed that's where we go for our next investigation.

Manaka: But how do we get in? Last time I checked...didn't K Academy shut down a year ago?

Seiya: It was due to construction. So it probably would not doubt be the place where it would host a spirit...

Yuma: So it's now a haunted school...?

Hiroshi: Yes...

Hiroshi then thought about Ruri. Even though in his uncle told him to stay out of trouble. He couldn't sit still if his life along with Ruri's were on the line.

Hiroshi: (Sorry Uncle. Auntie. But you guys will thank me later once I bring Ruri back. I'll beat this fucking Death Game that Hannya had put me through.)

He hated this but he's gotta do it.

Manaka: So Hiroshi...You know what we gonna do next?

Hiroshi: Yes...

Yuma: Whoo~! Here we go again.

Kaede: We're basically spirit hunters~!

Their next destination...

K Academy...

With that, the five youths will be meeting there tonight as the next blood moon will appear and everything is set in motion.
