"That was close. I should dry it or the scales are showing up."
Yashiro sighed in relief.
She turned to see a towel lay perfectly on the floor, looking all new and white.
"A CLEAN TOWEL!"
Yashiro happily took the towel and dried her hand.
She then saw traces of stuff mentioned to be gone just now.
"This towel,  the lunch box..
Ah! My pencil case and book!"
She ran to take it but suddenly hear some faint sound coming from the room next to her.

Curiosity took the best of her when she walked into the room.
There stood something big, blue colored with a lot of eyes.
There's this eerie aura coming from the creature,
'Could it be that,THE YOUSEI?'
She was backing off when she fell and landed on her butt,
gaining the attention of Yousei.
"Ekkk?!"
Yashiro squeaked in fear,

'But once you met eyes with them,
they will eat you!'

"You saw us."
The Yousei turned to look at Yashiro.
Before they could charge further towards her,
a sudden glimpse of shadow passed by.
"DON'T YOU TRY TO HURT NENE-CHAN!"

The person then stomp one of his legs upon the Yousei's head hardly to make it crashed into a bunch of...
Pink bunnies?

Yashiro eyes widened at the sudden action performed.
"H-Hanako-"
"YASHIRO!"
Yashiro turned to see Hanako at the entrance.
'If he's there then who is this?'
Yashiro attention moved to the person who saved her,
"MOKKE-CHAN! That's dangerous you know!"
The cheerful tone seems too familiar.
The newbie?

"Wait, K-Kizuna-chan?"
Hanako walked to Yashiro and is shocked too.
His guess was right.
The said girl turned as she smiles fondly,
"Are you okay Nene-chan?"
She asked worrily as she walked to Yashiro.
Yashiro could only nodded.
She was dumbfounded,
how can Kizuna see the Yousei?
And more importantly..
SAVED HER WITH A KICK?

The new kid was about to hold Yashiro's hand when someone suddenly grabbed hers.
Kizuna was a bit taken back by the action and turned to see a boy with black, choppy bang hair.
His eyes were amber,  perfectly dressed in a set of old,
black school uniform,
and she couldn't miss the two ghostly orbs next to him.

At first she was calm when she saw Hanako but a moment later,
"Wait,  you're-"
Her face reddened as she gets flustered all of sudden.
"L-let go of me you p-perverted ghost!"
Hanako feel attacked by it that he let go of her hand.

Yashiro looks at him in shock,
"Hanako-san?!"
Kizuna back off and ran behind Yashiro.
"Why you called me a pervert?!"
Hanako complaining to Kizuna as he get up,  pointing his finger at her furiously.

"Are you really the one to ask that?
What were you thinking putting your face about only 5 centimetres away from me this morning?!"
The girl said with her fair skin on her face turned into hard red color.
This morning incident keeps on replying in her head until she heard the Yousei trying to hurt yashiro.

Yashiro gasped, she did remeber it clearly too.
Her inner self was laughing hard at how these two were red as tomato.
"I-I was curious tho."
Hanako defended.
"Ok wait,  so clearly.
Kizuna-chan,  you can see supernaturals?"
Yashiro asked.

Kizuna stood next to Hanako,  holding a mokke in her hands.
She nodded with her lips curled upwards.
"Indeed,  I'm one of the supernaturals!"
Yashiro eyebrows twitched,
"You're.. One of the supernaturals?
What do you mean?"

Kizuna and her cheerful aura is really something,  she just smiles cheerfully as she looks at Hanako.
"Well, I'm the 8th Mystery, Hana.
Nice to meet you guys."
