Blood Moon

Chapter 28

*Hiroshi's Pov*

After hanging out with the others, I arrived back at home. Night time had hit quickly...

I was...alone...

Uncle was still investigating Ruri's case.

If only I could be able to help. Anything that could show me what truly happend to Ruri...

Anything...

Me: *Sighs*

I looked around my room...

There were piles of anime, CDs, and manga all over the place but for some reason...

I just didn't feel like going over them...

Manaka's death and Ruri's disappearance was all that I could think it.

At this rate, I'm going to get an headache.

Then there's Tomoki's case...

Was it really a good idea to let Kuro Mirai solve that case for me...?

.....

For some reason, I just didn't feel like doing anything.

Maybe I'll watch some TV. It could get my mind off of things.

Anything but the News...

I grabbed the remote to turn it on.

*Click*

Huh...?

*Click*

That's strange...for some reason, the TV wasn't turning on. I better check to see if it's plugged in...

.....

Me: What the...?

The TV is plugged in...

Maybe the remote has a wiring problem...is the batteries still got some juice in them?

*Click*

Me: Eh?

I looked back at the TV again.

It was turned on...

Except...

I didn't turned it on...

Me: What the fuck...?

Great...am I having another unexplained phenomenon?

Now I don't feel safe at all.

Maybe I should call Kamishiro to report to her about this paranormal activity going on in my house.

*Click*

Me: ?!!

The lights in my apartment went out in a flash almost startling me. My vision started to become hazy...

The atmosphere begin to shift as everything started to get cold.

I was trying my absolute hardest to stay awake.

Then that's when I felt it again.

Eyes were on me...

There was someone here with me...

Me: W-Whose there...?

....

Silence was all that had answered me...

But I knew someone is here...

???: Hiroshi...Hiroshi...

Me: ?!!

That voice...

Me: Tanaka...?

Tomoki Tanaka or his ghost was in my apartment...

I couldn't see him...but I could hear him...

The way he called out for me sounded scared yet desperate...as if something or someone was harming him...

Me: Where are you?!

Tomoki: It hurts...It hurts...Please help me!

Me: How...How can I help you?!

He spoke in a hoarse voice which brought chills down my spine.

"Find My Body Hiroshi....Find My Body and You'll Know The truth...!"

Me: Wait...your body...tell me...who killed you and where is Hannya keeping Ruri at?!

He wasn't able to answer...

Because he was already gone....

Me: Damnit! What the fuck!

Find his body...

Does he mean like...in the cemetery where everyone's body goes after they die...?

Wait...

The feeling of being watched was still present...

I... slowly turned my head...

At my door...

Me: WHAT THE HELL?!!

A face appear at my door...before shutting it slowly...

The feeling of being watched was gone...

What...the hell...was that?

..Eh?

My skin suddenly felt itchy again, then started to make it feel like it was on fire...Oh no...here we go again...

The mouths had appeared again...

I can hear them whispering...

"DIE..."

"JUST DIE!"

"YOU CAN'T SAVE HER!"

"YOU WILL FALL!"

"YOU WILL DESPAIR!"

"DIE!!!"

"YOU CAN'T SAVE ANYONE!"

"BARE THE MARK THE HANNYA-SAMA!!!!"

"DIE!!!"

"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!"

Like what happened earlier...Their irritating laughter echoed their my ears as they continued to taught me.

How long do I have to endure this torment from Hannya.

Due to my helplessness, That bitch is probably laughing her ass off while getting a kick out of this.

"Hannya-Sama likes you~~~!"

What...?

"You are an interesting person. It'll be pretty boring if you die now."

"So Let's play a new game~!"

.....

"Let's Play...Gashadokuro Hakamori"
