The Dead Among The Living (A Ghost Hunt FanFiction)

Prologue

She ran in the dark alley, hoping to lose the vengeful spirit of a serial killer following her and trying to kill her. She tried to stop the bleeding on her stomach where the ghost managed to stab her.

Her kuji-in was not strong enough to drive the ghost away. She tried to hide in the dumpster, and fumbled with her phone. Trying to call her friends, hoping for them to answer.

She first dialed the number of the man whom she sees as a father figure. But she only got a voicemail, she frantically leave a message, asking for help.

She dialed next the number of the woman whom she sees a mother figure. But like the first person, she only got a voicemail.

She then dialed the number of the girl whom she sees a sister. It rang for a while but eventually switched to voicemail. Again, leaving the same frantic message as the others.

She dialed the number of the boy whom she sees as a brother. The system recorded voice asked if she wanted to pay extra to switch to international call.

She dialed the number of the boy whom she sees as a mischievous brother. Again, it was a voicemail.

She cried.

She's nowhere to run to.

She already lost her contact with her makeshift family the day after their grumpy and narcissistic boss left for England, together with his assistant.

With her bloody hands, she tried to dial the number that the pink-haired woman whom she sees a doting aunt gave her before she left.

It rang, and rang, and rang, but no one answered.

She shivered when the surrounding suddenly become cold.

It's here!

I'm not going to die without fighting. She make a stance, readying her kuji-in.

"Rin! Pyō! Tō! Shā! Kai! Jin! Retsu! Zai! Zen!"

The vengeful ghost screamed in pain but it wasn't enough, she took this chance to run. But he stab her back with his fingers sharp as nails that pierced thru her heart.

She coughed blood and slumped her body on the cold and hard cement. Tears trailed from her eyes as her life flashed thru her mind as her breath leaves her.

"Na... ru..."

And she succumbed to death.
