Ghostly Hauntings:

Chapter 1:

Mai struggled to juggle all the coffee cups she was holding and open the door to the club room at the same time. She hated being on drink duty. The designated person was supposed to be Yasuhara who hadn't turned up at the society for a few weeks, apparently because he was studying.

Their club hadn't been considered popular enough to get one of the better room so they couldn't make their own drinks. Instead one of them would go to the coffee shop and lug all the drinks up the stairs to the top floor. They rotated so it was fair.

"Here's your frappe, Keiko-chan," she managed to put the cardboard cup down without spilling everything. "This one's Michiru's iced coffee."

She handed the relevant plastic container to Michiru and moved onto the next person.

"I have your English tea here, John," she smiled at their blond and male member.

"Thank you, Taniyama-san."

That left her with the green tea. She sat down at the table and checked for any sign that they were expecting clients. John was reading the bible, Keiko was texting on her phone and Michiru was taking a selfie. Clearly they hadn't taken any appointments whilst she had been waiting in the coffee shop on the other side of the campus.

"No clients then?" she asked anyway.

Keiko looked up from her phone. "Nope."

Mai sighed and switched her attention to looking out the window. It was a beautiful day outside with a blue cloudless sky and a temperature that was comfortably warm. When she had started university she had imagined joining an exciting society and spending lots of time doing fun activities.

Instead she had joined a society that did nothing. They were the paranormal society and did consultations for people that believed they were being haunted by ghosts. So far only five people had come and those people had been imagining it.

Mai would have left the society last month, but she had paid the membership fee and wouldn't get a refund so she was determined to get value for her money. She took out a book she had taken out of the library and settled down for a read. They were just going to do nothing again for the next two hours. It had been the agenda for the past four meetings, do nothing and hope a client turns up before the time is up.

Something happened when she was getting to the good part of the book. The murderer was about to revealed and then Keiko squealed. Mai got a fright and accidentally dropped the book.

"Don't do that, you gave me a fright," Michiru whined. "Is it a spider again?"

Keiko glared at her. "No, it's a case!"

Mai allowed herself to feel a little excited. Maybe they were going to do something fun? She stood up and went over to Keiko.

"I was texting my brother and he told me that his school is haunted. He begged us to do something about it because everyone is too scared to stay and study after school."

"Isn't your brother in high school?" Mai questioned.

"Yes, he is in his final year," Keiko replied as her phone buzzed again. "I have another message. He says that he hasn't seen it, but he knows people that have. It's probably because he goes to cram school instead of staying behind."

It was beginning to sound like the start of a good mystery to solve. Mai's mind started to buzz with the possibilities. Maybe they could do an exorcism or a summoning, they could use the EVP recorder that had just been gathering dust in the corner.
