Blood Moon

Chapter 33

*Hiroshi's Pov*

Yuma: I think I might know something about the missing soldiers...

This surprised both me and Kamishiro.

Me: Really?!

Yuma: Yeah. Back then, when I was little. My old man once told me a story about...soldiers being used as experiments...

Yamada begin to tell a scary tale about the solider experiment.

Yuma: It was a Frightening tale. These date back hundred years ago to the Second World War.

From Yamada's perspective...
Rumors once says there was a top secret research going on in a military research lab, but all papers relating to it were destroyed at the end of the war.

Me: Do you mean...that the Japanese army was creating some kind of biological weapon?

If Himeno were to say something about this. He probably say it's too unscientific and wouldn't believe it.

Kaede: But...then that would mean....they were using one of their men as a experiment?!

Me: Judging from Yamada's Story. I wouldn't put it pass them if that was the truth.

Kamishiro surpassed a shudder.

Kaede: How inhumane. For someone to go that far to make the perfect soldier.

Me: There's a lot to believe or not believe. But how did your knew about this Yamada?

Yuma: When he was younger. My old man was a delinquent. He may not be sharpest tool in the shed but he has a knack of finding out of whole lot of shit when it comes tumbling down to him. Besides, don't you remember we once did a school project on it?

We did. Oh yeah. We did. I kind of forgotten about school.

Me: Meaning?

Yuma: Meaning that this note about the "experiment" shouldn't be here in this cemetery in the first place...

Me:....

Kaede: Do you think...someone left it here to another person to find it.

Me: Or maybe to get rid of evidence.

Kaede: I wouldn't be surprised if the government tried to hide something like this.

Yuma: Those bastards are always hiding something. No big surprise if they were involved.

This makes me wonder. Is the experimental soldier connected to the Gashadokuro Hakamori?

It's best we find out...

Me: ?!

Kaede: What is it?

Me: The...shadows...

Two familiar shadows had appeared once again before they disappeared into the night.

Kaede: Did you say shadows...they appeared once again? What did they look like?

Me: Well...one was small...the one other was large...

Kamishiro put on a look of uncomfortableness.

Yuma: What's the matter? I thought you like ghosts.

Kaede: Well...not ones that actually could cause your death.

Yuma:.....?!!

Me: Explain....

Kaede: Another rumor goes around here that the two shadows are different sizes, one small, one large, leading many to believe they are the shadows of a mother and child not quite laid to rest just yet.

Me: And...?

Kaede: They’ve been known to cause accidents by appearing suddenly in front of cars and haunting people within the park.

Me: ?!!

I can't believe I almost led us to getting killed!!!

Kaede: Hiroshi-kun. It's best you stay away from those shadows. For your own sake. Yamada. You too.

Don't need to tell me twice. I won't make the same mistake again.

We left that area and went back near the graves.

We each all took a good look around.

Kaede: Hiroshi-kun!!!

Hearing Kamishiro's voice broke out nearby. I immediately turned to her. The gothic maid girl was now nearby a grave. Me and Yamada walked over towards it.

My suspecions were correct.

Me: Tomoki Tanaka.

We found his grave.

We found the Dead One's grave.

Kaede: So this is where Tomoki-kun's body is laid to rest?

Me: I'm not so sure...he asked me to find his body.

Kaede: I see...but it has to be here. Where else could he be...?

Me: Let's find out ourselves. Yamada. Dig.

Yuma: Roger!

No one says that anymore.

Yuma's cybermetrix bat transformed and he literally digged up a whole lot of dirt in only a matter of a few seconds.

Impossible. I know. Well this is the future.

Me: Good work. Yamada.

Kaede: Descrating someone's grave. You guys sure are brave but reckless.

Me: This is where he should be but buried...

I opened up the tomb.

Kaede: ?!!

Yuma: ?!!

Me:....Just as I thought...

There is no body inside...

Kaede: What...? What's going on...?

Yuma: Like you said...He was supposed to be buried here...

Me: Unless...

"Someone moved his body or his body was never there to begin with..."

.....

*Moooooooan*

Kaede: ?!!

Yuma:...Hiroshi...

Me: I know...

The sounds of bones hitting the pavement was I all I need to know what's going on...

Gashadokuro Hakamori was here...
