Chapter 1
-Shiki's POV
Tsukiyomi Shiki, a first year in high school...
*Screeech*
Ms: Okay class, this will be the place that we're staying at...
Today, we're in the middle of our school trip, which I never wanted to attend...
Yosuke: Sensei! What are we gonna do here?
He said, raising his right hand up high.
Urgh! What an idiot...
I started massaging my aching forehead and went inside the building...
Me: Hello? Is anybody here?
I exclaimed while glancing at every corner of the room...
Seems like nobody is around...
Me: Excuse me?! Is anybody here?
Ms: Akira-kun, what's wrong?
Me: Sensei, seems like nobody's here.
Hiro: Hey guys! Take a look at this!
Exclaimed one of our classmates... Out of curiosity, I, along with our teacher, ran outside to peek at what they were doing...
Me: Hey, where are the others?
I asked our female classmate named Yuki...
Yuki: They're at the back of the buil-
Without giving her a chance to finish her sentence.. I ran towards the back of the old mansion.. Yeah, the place that we're staying at is an old mansion.. We don't really know who owns this place... But, the only thing that I know is that this is where the school bus took us...
The moment I arrived at the back... I saw the shocked faces of my classmates...
Me: Oi Hiro, have you found something?
Hiro: Y-yeah.. Shiki, look at this...
Hiro stepped aside to show me what he had found... I got shocked at what I saw...
Me: Wh-What the heck?! Haha...
I kept staggering and shaking at what I saw... A headless body, placed in the blood-stained grass...
Kairi: K-kyaaahh!
Kairi, our female classmate, screamed out while covering her ears and closing her eyes tightly...
Kei: It's okay Kairi...
Kei, her twin brother, comforted her...
Ms: Akira, what was that noise?
Our teacher, along with Yuki, came...
Yuki: W-what is that?
Yuki's eyes enlarged as soon as she saw the dead body and fainted soon after...
All: YUKI!!
■ ■ ■ ■ ■
Yuki: Urgh! W-what happened? Where are we?
She said as she sat up...
Hiro: Inside the mansion...
Yuki: What time is it?
Akira: Around 7...
Ms: Students! Dinner's almost ready... Go down and wash your hands...
All: Yes, sensei!
Soon after we've finished eating dinner, we went inside our rooms and slept... Actually some of us didn't ate and can't sleep because of the shock from this afternoon...
■ ■ ■ ■ ■
*bam bam bang*
??: HELP!!
I sat up, acting all surprised, and looked around...
Me: Ne, Hiro... Did you hear something?
Hiro: Dude, it's just your imagination...
Thinking that I must be imagining things... I went back to sleep... And not long after, only a few minutes away for the sun to rise... We heard the screaming sound again...
??: KYAAAAHHHH!!
I heard it again... Acting all surprised, Hiro and I rapidly sat up and looked at each other..
Hiro: Akira, what was that?
Looking at each other's faces, we heard the doors of the other room open one by one until we heard knocks on our door...
Yuki: Oi Hiro! Akira! Are you two awake? Miku and Rin are missing...
Hiro and I went out of our room and looked at each side of the hall way... And while doing so, I started counting the people surrounding us...
Me: It seems that the only ones missing aren't Miku and Rin... Kairi and Kei too...
I stated, acting nervously.
Kei: Please! HELP! I can't find Kairi anywhere...
I looked into the eyes of each person surrounding me.. and saw fear and worry through them...
Me: Okay, let's split up...
■ ■ ■ ■ ■
We went inside our rooms and took out our things...
■ ■ ■ ■ ■
Me: For starters... Each of us will be paired up... A girl and a boy... Next... Each of us should bring a weapon or simply something that can be used for offensive and defensive attacks... And the rest, will stay inside our room with Nekozawa-sensei... That okay?
All: Okay...
Me: Now... Let's start the search!
