'Wake up, please. I'm really sorry.'

'Who's that? Where am I?' you asked as it was so dark that you can't see. 'What's that light? Why is it so bright?' you continued to ask as you followed the direction of the light. You got closer and closer before you finally reached the light. You opened your eyes and looked around you to see that you were in the school garden but... 'Why does it look different?'

This was indeed your school but yet it also feels foreign. "How long was I asleep for?" you asked, standing up from where you lie and start to wander around the school. Trying to get a grip over everything. You started to get lost from the many changes that were made to the school. So, you went to ask the first person you saw. "Excuse me. I am a bit lo-" you were cut off when you saw your hand went through the student. "What? No. No. No. This isn't happening. Why? Wha-?" you started to panic, trying to touch the student to only get the same results. It went through. You went through but to a certain young exorcist you are trying to harm the student.

Once the student left after feeling a chill went through their body. You dropped to the ground confused, devastated, and scared. "Why did it go through? Why can't I touch them?" As you try to make sense of what was happening. The young exorcist is sneaking behind you because an unexpected target is an easy target.

One...

Two..

THUD!

'Darn it!' he cursed, accidentally hitting the wall with the sayathat he carelessly threw away as you turned around from the sound and seeing the blade was up in the air. You backed away from him. Eyes trained on the katana. 'He is going to kill me.' you concluded, slowly standing up and backing away. He moved forward for every step you took back. You can't stand it before running in no direction in particular. The only thought you had in your head is to run as fast as you could.

You ran up the stairs quickly but you lost your balance. Instead of falling you were floating but you can't stop and question as the exorcist was hot on your trail. It was hard floating for the first time so you ran into the first room you see.

'Girl's Bathroom' it read and you were sure he wasn't crazy enough to follow you in there. Sure enough he went past where you are. You started to catch your breath as you settled down. "Nee-san?" a voice asked from behind you. It was your brother, Amane. "Amane? Is that you? Please, help me. He was trying to kill me." you cried, hugging your brother. At least you know someone and that someone can see you.

That was how you came to be in this world, as an apparition, nothing more, nothing less. Forced to settle the unfinished business that you yourself don't know but that's just how it is. It became increasingly hard when that exorcist made it his mission to exorcist you. Like now for instance. You ran away from him as the both of you ran the empty halls.

As you turn into a corner running away from him you try to find a way out. 'I need to find a hiding place quickly!' you thought floating around from the first year exorcist, Minamoto Teru. "Come back here you disgusting apparition!" the exorcist yelled at you. It was really late right now and no one was in sight except for you and him. You saw the library and booked it there. You're hiding under the librarian's table near the door.

As soon as he went into the library and walked to the shelves, you booked it out the door. 'I really hate this!" you thought as you were running away. You've become inured to his threats and violent actions towards apparition since he started school here. You ran and ran until you managed to get far enough from the exorcist. You hide inside the gym's locker room. You floated on top of the lockers just in case.

You were just minding your own business and suddenly this psycho tried to exorcise you for no apparent reason. You have no idea why all of the female population swooned over him. 'Ugh! If I was them I would stay away from this two faced psycho!' you yelled in your head being highly annoyed. "I wish my brothers are here." you mumbled feeling scared and annoyed. Suddenly the door opened to reveal the exorcist. "I know you're here! It's no use hiding! Your fate is to die!" he shouted in the locker room looking cautious.

When you thought he was far enough, you slowly floated to the door trying to be as stealthy as possible. Sadly, all your hard work being stealthy is all for nothing. Teru had sense where you were and held the door to stop you from leaving. "Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. I told you it's no use for you to hide." he stated with sadistic eyes and a smirk. You were trembling not wanting to die yet because of this you did the unthinkable. You grabbed his collar and kissed him on the lips. His eyes widened as he was frozen in place. You took this as a sign for you to leave and you did.

As you leave, Teru was still in the state of shock dropping his sword to the ground. He can't believe an apparition just stole his first kiss. As for you, you were disgusted to no end and you spit on the ground disgusted. You float all the way to one of your brothers' boundaries. "Amane!" you called out as you were in a state of fear and disgust. "Oh. Onee-chan, what's wrong?" Amane or Hanako as the humans rumoured, asked you what's wrong. You told him every single detail and how you even managed to escape him.

Teru never tries to exorcise the 7 wonders as he promised to his brother that he'll let him do it. You weren't in the 7 wonders though. You were just a regular supernatural like a few of the apparition in the school. It makes you vulnerable to the exorcist's attacks. "It's okay, nee-chan. I'll protect you." Amane reassured, smiling with eyes that shone through the moon's light.
