CHAPTER 48
Spook 48 - Daydream P.8 

"Wh.. What's with you.. Didn't you say you wanted to be friends? It was really fun, you know! Taking classes together, cleaning the pool with everyone.." Mitsuba said. "Why..!?" He yelled. "Minamoto-kun, you also wanted to bring back that friend Mitsuba who you failed to help before. Didn't you wish Mitsuba could come back to life!?" Mitsuba took a deep breath. "Ah, right. You're disappointed that I'm a fake?"

"That's right." Kou said. "This place, if this place is a world where Mitsuba can live, then it's fine. I thought I could say that."

"So then.."

"However, this place isn't like that. It's all fake. This world is fake, and so you're trying to become Mitsuba! I don't need this kind of fake happiness, become Mitsuba? Don't make me laugh. Maybe i'm thinking this because i'm in this place, but." Kou's exorcist tool began to spark. "I'll make you open your eyes, even if I have to drag you out by force, We're getting out of here!" He charged at Mitsuba. "AAGH!!"

"Stay back!" Mitsuba yelled, now back in his former form. "Don't be ridiculous!! It doesn't matter if it's fake! Either way, your wish and my wish both.. CAN'T COME TRUE!!" His boney claw charged at Kou.

'This kid.. He's gotten way stronger than he was in mirror hell. Anyway I have to get closer.' Kou thought. 'Find a chance, to get behind!!' Kou managed to keep dodging and ended up behind Mitsuba. "THERE!!" He yelled. He was frozen in place, his arm was caught. Mitsuba tossed him into a wall.

"Hey- Should we stop now?.. A-ha! What the~ You're so weak! You're gonna get us out of here? Acting so high and mighty~! Well~ Well~ Well~ silly earring. OUCH!"

Kou had tossed a rock at Mitsuba's head. "Hmph, you let your guard down, idiot!!"

"Huh!? You're still going!?"

"You haven't been listening? Your wish won't be granted in a fake world, because you don't want to become Mitsuba. You wanted to become human in the real world, didn't you!?"

"Huh?" Mitsuba muttered. "Nah.. What are you talking about?"

"It's because that's impossible that we're even in this situation."

"But you can't just admit that. Even though you're tacky, I guess you are an exorcist, so.."

"In that case, you will spend the rest of your fake life in this fake world with your fake friends? You're not Mitsuba but you'll live as Mitsuba? Are you really saying that? Isn't that wrong!?" Kou yelled. "If that's really what you want, then i'll make it come true in the real world." Kou grabbed Mitsuba's arm. "So let's go back, Mitsuba!"

"Minamoto-kun.." Mitsuba slapped him.

"What was that!?"

"You really.. DON'T UNDERSTAND AT ALL!" Mitsuba cried. He slapped him again. "You'll make my wish come true? WITH WHAT POWER..!! ADMIT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE!! TELL ME MY WISH CAN'T COME TRUE!!" Mitsuba kept hitting Kou back towards the broken window. "TELL ME A GHOST CAN NEVER BECOME HUMAN!!" He cried. "Because after all, there's nothing anyone can do, even if it's only in this world, be my friend, you and (Y/n)-chan, stay by my side.. I'm just thinking scary things. Over there I'll be jealous. Why am I the only one? I wish everyone was like me, I wish everyone was dead. So? Creepy, right? Ha ha.. HOW COULD SOMETHING LIKE ME BE UNDERSTOOD BY A HUMAN LIKE YOU!!!"

"In that case.. How about I die too, me and (Y/n). So we can stay together forever?" Kou said. '(Y/n).. You're already dead, aren't you?' Kou thought. He lifted up Mitsuba's hood and stepped back, they both fell. "So let's go back to the real world. And make it our goal to be normal humans together, with (Y/n). Eh, Mitsuba?!"

"WAI-!" Mitsuba caught their fall.

"Why..? Didn't you wish we could be together forever?"

"ACK! Are you insane!? Jumping to your death!? Even inviting (Y/n), who doesn't even have a clue!? Are you trying to kill yourself?! AND others around you!? ARE YOU THAT MUCH OF AN IDIOT!!?"

"..You.. DIDN'T YOU SAY EVERYONE SHOULD DIE!!" Kou pointed at him.

"Huh.. HUH!? Like this is my fault!? Aren't you the one who secretly has a deathwish?!"

"No way!! But, if I could become like you, I thought I might be able to understand you a little better. Sorry." Kou apologized.

"What the- you don't make any sense.. Ahh I get it now.." Mitsuba said, he flopped down on his back. "Minamoto-kun, you're a pain, I guess I'll have to stop living here.."

"REALLY!?"

"But, I won't exactly help you, I just won't stop you, Tsukasa-kun is scary."

"That's fine. I told you, didn't I? I'm going to get you out of here."
