It had been about two days since Naru had been possessed and things had returned to normal. Or... as normal as it could get when you're with a bunch of people that work with the paranormal almost daily. They had made multiple expeditions into the abandoned part of the house and they were all currently sitting in the lounge room where they had been brought to on their first night at the villa.

"Hey... Mai. What do you think Masako told Lin not to get?" Monk asked, rolling onto his side on the couch. His blonde hair was loose from his usual pony tail and a spoon hanging from between his clenched teeth; his empty ice-cream cup lying somewhere on the ground.

"Hn... Don't know. Too hot." She moaned out, groaning as she shifted on her arm chair. Her feet were up on the headrest while her head was hanging off the seat, her view of the world flipped. In her hands was a book on paranormal stories.

"Geez Mai, I think you've spent too much time with Naru. You haven't stopped reading all day. You didn't even stop when Luella brought in the ice-cream!" Ayako called, her feet thudding loudly against the floor as she came to stand infront of the brunette girl. Said girl lifted her book slightly so she could look at the red-head and was about to retort when the front door opened, revealing Lin and Naru, their arms filled with bags.

"Hey guys. So, what did you get?" Mai asked, turning herself around in the seat so she was right-side up.

"Food." Was Naru's short reply, his forehead beaded lightly with sweat. Even he was affected by the days heat as he only wore a blue t-shirt and shorts... well, more like he was forced to wear them as his mother stole his usual attire. But he was secretly grateful.

"Well that's helpful..." Mai grumbled before standing up and walking to the door and taking some bags from Lin, ignoring the glare Naru sent her way and walked to the kitchen that was conveniently across the hall from the lounge room.

"So Lin, what did Masako tell you not to get?" Monk called, standing up and stretching.

"Nothing." Lin told him before following Mai into the kitchen and then Naru left too.

"Well, that... that was odd." Ayako said, breaking the silence of the room as she blinked at the now empty doorway.

"You could say that again." Monk answered from within the room, totally unaware of the events soon to unfold...

Later that night, Lin warned them not to open the pantry in Masako's presence and that he would be the only one in possession of the key. What he didn't know, was that Masako had overheard and her curiosity had peaked to the point that she had Yasu help her sneak into Lin's room and stole the key before sneaking back to her room; Never once questioning the mischievous smile on Yasu's face.

Once everyone was asleep, she snuck downstairs and into the kitchen, eyeing the pantry suspiciously before inserting the key into the lock. Gulping, she gripped the handle before twisting it and opening the door. Flicking on the light, she gasped at the sight infront of her.

Piles of sugar filled snacks lined the shelves of the walk in store room and she drooled when she went further into the junk filled heaven, the door slowly clicking shut behind her.

~X-x-X~

Morning guys." Mai yawned, walking into the kitchen and rubbing her eyes tiredly.

Multiple groans met her ears as she made her way to the kitchen island and cast her eyes around the room. Cream coloured walls met with white tile flooring with marble counters and kitchen island in the middle of the room. A large oak table was pushed towards the window at which Ayako, Monk and Yasuhara sat. The latter of the three wearing what could only be described as a crazed smile.
