"H-Hello?" the Radish's voice trembled, "Um, Who's speaking?" She asked as the others gathered around her to listen in.

"It's Misaki" a woman's voice was heard from the other line, the trio looked at each other in surprised as (Y/N) calmly listened, leaning on Hanako's short stature.

"Misaki?" (Y/N) muttered to herself, "Who the hell is Misaki?"

"-I had been teaching my students in the schoolhouse at the top of these stairs. But I was killed here, torn to pieces. Right in the place where you are standing" the voice said, Yashiro's eyes widened.

"Say would you please look for my body?" the voice simply requested, a smile heard through the line, "I can't do anything as I am now..."

"W-Wait! Where's Aoi..?" the cream haired girl immediately asked but was ignored, as the 'mystery' person told them to look for her right arm. "Do hurry. Class will be starting soon." was the last thing she said before hanging up and a creaking noise started, showing it was an hourglass turning.

"So we have a time limit?" the blonde complained.

"Do you think we can go on if we put the arm there?" the radish pointed toward the item slot, that had a sign saying 'place arm here'.

Hanako shrugged at her question, "Dunno? But I'm sure something will happen." which resulted in the radish looking sullen.

"Forget it, senpai! It was just a prank call. Let's ignore it and keep going!!" the blonde trying to cheer her up but failed due to the snickering of a certain (H/C) haired ghost, "What?" looking at the ghost.

"You shouldn't try that," the girl advised the boy. "Why?" he asked looking a bit ticked off. "Hanako?-" the snickering ghost said, looked over at Hanako, who nodded.

"Well...See, We eight mysteries have our own domain. And in that domain, we're unbeatable. In my case, that domain would be the toilets."

"Which is not something to be proud of," the ghost girl looked at him, unimpressed. Hanako stuck his tongue out at her and continued, "Though (N/N) has somewhat an exception to it, how would you put it?" looking back at her to explain how domains worked for her.

"Ah! Well...mine is nature-based, mostly flora, so...um I can control anything as long as there's nature? I guess that's a way I can put it! Well, I can use it, with or without permission of the boundary keeper, but it going to be much weaker...That's the best way I can explain it" she fiddled with the hem of her kimono.

"(Y/N)-chan, What if there aren't any flowers? or Nature?" Yashiro joined into the conversation.

"Ah, if you haven't noticed, I've constantly been using this," tapping her hair accessory, "because if I do use my ability. I'm going to destroy everything...like floorboards and such." The two humans nodded at her explanation.

"But, Minamoto-san, if you'd like to continue with the plan, you sought out before...."

The couple just mischievously smiled at Kou and started to push him closer to the edge, "There's no telling what could happen if you step off the path and make her mad. But of course, I won't stop you if you want to find out." condescendingly smirking at the boy. Though before anything could escalate the radish reminded them to find the arm, they were requested to find.
