Saiki's POV
I head out after getting dressed, putting on shoes, stuff like that, and I start going towards the shrine. I need Toritsuka's help to find a ghost to help me find (Y.N). I get there and Toritsuka, along with Kuboyasu are working there by doing stuff like cleaning up, ringing the bell, ext. I walk up to them and when they see me, they start running up to me.

When they reached me, Toritsuka exclaimed. "Hey Saiki!! Dude it's nice to see you but, where's your girlfri-" But got cut off by Kuboyasu hitting him over the head. "I'm sorry about him Saiki." Kuboyasu started. "But to be honest, I was going to ask the same thing." He finished. I started shaking again, which became noticeable. "H-hey dude, are you ok?" Toritsuka asked. I wasn't going to get anywhere if I didn't tell them. I stated, "(Y.N).... got.. kidnapped...." their expressions turned to shock.

"W-What?! Dude, what?!" Toritsuka freaked out. Kuboyasu tunes in trying to be helpful by asking, "Have you looked for her through clairvoyance?!" I nodded. They both looked at each other, then Toritsuka looked to me asking, "You came here to get a ghost who can help you, right?" I nodded again. Toritsuka motioned for me to follow him. He led me to a well that was very heavily surrounded by plants. Seriously, approaching it I had no idea what it was. They were wild and beautiful, colors of all sorts. I'm sure (Y.N) would like them....

"This is an old and ancient well that has not been used in centuries." Toritsuka began. "I was told at a very young age that it was not to be used..... unless a very valued person in your life has had something that wasn't supposed to happen, happen to them.." Toritsuka was looking at the ground, and from reading his mind, I could tell he was nervous about telling me this. And I guess I can understand why. Because next he said, "The first, and last time it was used, properly, was when a very old ancestor of mine used it to safe his wife who was kidnapped right after she went into labor."

His eyes narrowed and he dug his nails into his palms as he continued. "The well told him her location, and because of that, he thought the well was simply magic. T-the kid he had tried making a wish, hearing stories about how magic and amazing it was, but was met with, a very, Very , terrible fate.... He had made his wish, and seconds after, the well's water turned to blood, then hardened, stabbing him through the chest, then liquifying again, pulling him into the blood, and drowned his near death body......"

A sad story, yes, and I do get why he's telling it to me, also through mind reading of course. Basically, he's scared if I'm not "worthy" of the well's help, that the same fate would befall me. And although I am psychic, this was something that was 50-50. I had no control of improving or worsening my chances because this is also obviously a supernatural force. I sigh and walk past Toritsuka who was looking at me wide eyed like I was crazy. I probably was, but I didn't care. I push past all the plants covering the well and looked down into the blue water. But for all I knew, in a matter of moments, it could be red.

I stared at the water, just as the thought passed my head. 'If you do this, there's no guarantee you'll come out alive.' And that was absolutely true. My life was in danger, but (Y.N) could be going through worse then death. If this increases my chances of finding and saving her, I was completely willing to take this risk, for her. To see her beautiful smile again. Her (E.C) eyes to look deep into my own. Just her presence was amazing. The feeling of being near her, really made my life complete. I look up, take a deep breath, then say aloud,
"I wish to know the location of my girlfriend."

Your POV
I wanna go home..... I wanna go home........ "I WANNA GO HOME!!" I scream at the top of my lungs. While screaming, I jerked my body forwards, causing that mysterious stabbing pain in my back again. If at all possible, I think I screamed in pain more than I screamed for my wish. That very honestly probably wasn't going to come true.

That crazy girl came back in very shortly after my screams. "Does your back hurt by any chance?" She asked out if nowhere. I hesitantly nod, hoping for an answer to this pain. "Oops.. Sorry bout that! I had to take secondary measures to make sure your boyfriend wouldn't have an easy time rescuing you!" She stated, saying the word 'boyfriend' with a hint of venom in her voice. "W-What did y-you d-d-do?" I ask in a shaking and cracked voice. "Oh nothing to bad! Don't worry, I checked the nail for rust! Don't worry about tetanus!" The word nail caught my attention. And in a bad way.

"WHAT?!!" I yell. "I dug a nail into your back, securing you to the table. Be grateful! This was one of the more humane things I had full access to do!" My eyes widened in fear. Now that I knew there was a literal nail in my back, it's hard to get comfortable. I started squirming, I became much more aware of the feeling of a nail in my back than when I didn't know what it was. She pinned me to the table and make me stop. "I was coming in anyways to have some more fun! So I'm glad that you're nice and aware! Cause it'll make it way more fun for me! Maybe not for you though....."

Teruhashi picked up a scalpel and twirled it in her fingers for a second before looking me up and down. "Ya know what, I just thought of a great activity I can do, that'll be good practice  for decorating!" She threw the scalpel behind her and ran out of the room. The scalpel hitting the ground rung through my ears, as well as my mind was racing about whatever she could mean by "decorating". It took her a few minutes to return, and when she cane in, she was hiding something behind her back.

"Ok, so.... I thought of the BEST idea for us to do! It'll really bond us together...." She said the word "bond" in a very uncomfortable way. She pointed to her right arm, which had a very big birth mark on it. "You see, I was born with this, and I've never really liked it all to much. But, what could be better than having a matching birth mark..." She then pulled out what she was hiding behind her back that shook me to my very core. The held up, a price of metal in the shape of her birth mark, as well as a blowtorch.... "Let's have some fun...."
