******************************

The three girls were sleeping over at Autumn's house.
" Hey, Emiko, so did you hear about that new horror movie coming out? I saw the trailer and I was so psyched to tell you about it. It's about this girl who found this gi- "
Started Jay, but Emiko put her finger on Jay's lips.
" Shhhhh.... I want to figure it out. By the way, is it a book? "
Asked Emiko. Jay pondered a bit.
" I actually don't know. "
She responded.
" I.... r-re...add.... I-it... B-befo... "
Autumn quietly said.
" What's that Autumn? "
Emiko asked curiously.
" I read...... I-it... "
Autumn tried speaking loudly.
" Uh-huh? Spit it out. "
Emiko told her. Autumn sighed and gave up. She pointed over to a bookcase. Emiko looked over to the book case and found a book. She looked at the cover as her eyes sparkled.
The words Weapon Garden: Diary of the Inspector were written across the cover. Emiko quickly looked over at Autumn who was burying her face in her green scarf.
" Can I borrow this, please? "
She asked quickly. Autumn nodded.
" Alright so are we going to put on some movies or what? "
Jay eagerly asked. Emiko nodded. Autumn got up and started to walk to the bathroom. Emiko and Jay looked at her as she walked towards the restroom.
" Uh where are you going? We're just about to start the movie. "
Jay said.
" To the bathroom. "
Autumn stated loudly.

Whenever Autumn was scared or nervous, her voice became a little more clear to hear and a little louder for some odd reason.

" With your iPod? "
Jay asked suspiciously.
" Yeah. I might get bored. "
She said. Jay sighed. Emiko looked over to Jay and whispered something in her ear.
" If we let her go into the restroom, she'll want to stay in there for the whole movie... BUT! We get to hear her sing. You know how beautiful that is... It's very soothing also. It's like a potion. I wish she had more courage to get up on stage and sing. "
Jay nodded in agreement.

Once Autumn was in the restroom, Jay and Emiko waited until they heard some music. They put their ears to the door. They heard beautiful singing.

~ You don't have to try so hard, you don't have to... Give it all away. You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up, you don't have to change a single thing ~

Emiko and Jay smiled wildly. They went on to do their own things. Emiko put on a movie to make Autumn think they were actually watching a movie.

Emiko opened the book to the first page and immediately started reading. Jay later grew bored of watching the movie. So she grabbed a pencil and some paper. She quickly started drawing.

About two hours later the movie credits were on the tv. Autumn came out of the restroom only to see Jay and Emiko asleep. She woke them up one more time so they can chat a bit more. Or just clean up to get ready for bed.

The three girls changed into their pajamas. Autumn fell asleep while the two others sat on the bed.
" Oh Emiko have you ever heard of the Nakasa House? "
Jay asked.
" Nakasa House? "
Emiko asked while tilting her head in confusion.
" Oh seems like you haven't. Well there is this house down the street in Kotane. One of the members of the family that lived there died in a flood by crashing through... Uhh who knows how many vehicles and houses. By the time the paramedics got there, it was too late. He was gone. "
Jay explained.
" Poor kid. He doesn't deserve that. He wasn't put on this Earth to be hit against objects us humans made. "
Emiko said looking down.
" Really? That's sweet... But it's kind of two years late... "
A young boy whispered into Ekimo's ear.
" Huh? Who are you? "
" Emiko looked around... no one but Autumn, Jay, and herself were in the room.

" What's wrong Emiko? "
Jay tilted her head.
" I thought I heard a voice.... Like a boy's voice "
Emiko explained.
" Come to my house... I need to show you something. Nakasa's residents. "
The young boy's voice traveled through Emiko's head once again.
" Jay. We need to go to the Nakasa house. "
Emiko said confidently.
" B-But why? It's way too late and... "
Jay said.
" We'll go tomorrow. We're going to bring Autumn also. "
Emiko explained.
" FFFFIIIIINNNNEEEEEE "
Jay said sighing.

Someone knocked on the door. It was Autumn's mom.
" Girls don't stay up this late. You won't be able to move tomorrow if you don't. So please go to bed. "
She said with a soft voice.
" Okay. "
Jay and Emiko both said in sync. Then they both drifted off to sleep.

What adventure will they find themselves in store Nakasa House the next day?
