Chapter 11||unexplainably explainable

did I bamboozle you with that title ;)

---

"Y/n? Y/n! God, y/n, please wake up!"

You recognized that voice.
It was full to the brim, dripping with concern, yet as pure and innocent as a child's.
A child...
Ranpo?

Your body involuntarily jerked upward, eyes bursting open to see yourself surrounded by a group of people.

Wait...you recognized these people.
The agency!

"Y/n!! I'm so glad you're awake!" Ranpo embraced you in one of the tightest hugs you'd received in a lifetime.

You remembered everything now.
The carefree trip with your closest friends that'd caused (and was continuing to cause) everything to fly out of control, you recalled falling into some sort of...portal? Then, being in a hospital back at 'home', your trip to Tokyo, and, finally, passing out in front of the agency...a long forgotten, abandoned version of the agency. 

"Y/n, tell them what happened. You do remember, right?" Ranpo ushered.
In your current situation, you almost believed it was unfortunate that you'd remembered, almost wishing you could forget it all right then and there.

"I...fell into a...portal? I remember...being sucked into a black abyss. I woke up in a hospital...back home. In America! I took a trip to Tokyo and visited Yokohama, but it was...in the future? The agency had been closed down for decades. I couldn't understand it. Then I passed out and woke up here."

"...what?" Everyone asked, not even slightly comprehending a word you'd spoken.

"She's definetly telling the truth, I can tell. But she can't find the... 'right words'? Anyone care to interpret?" Kunikida asked, glancing around.

Yosano suddenly spoke up.
"I know somebody. Give me a sec, ladies~" she cooed, coyly walking out of the room.

Dazai looked aggravated, but not enough to retort. Kunikida rolled his eyes. Ranpo laughed and said, "hah! She called you guys girls!" while Atsushi looked perplexed, like always.

"...Ranpo, you realize she meant all of us, right?" Kunikida said, pushing up his glasses.

Ranpo's face turned from amused to a pout as he frowned and crossed his arms, giving a small, exaggerated "hmf".

Yosano returned, you assumed she'd made a special phone call.

"They'll be here in 5. Til then, sit tight, girls~" She snickered.

"They'll?" Astushi asked, visibly growing anxious.

"It's a surprise~" She smiled, in her usual 'im-crazy-but-in-a-sexy-way' type grin.

As you all waited, everyone played charades to pass the time, completely forgetting about the task at hand, and, strangely, enjoying yourselves.

Just as Yosano had told the 5 of you, there was a knock at the door, approximately 6 minutes later.

Yosano opened the door to the cramped hospital room you all currently occupied, and a figure, dressed in a suit that you failed to recognize, stepped in.
