Basically this arc title chapters was actually called daydream when I went and check up the manga.

And I skipped Kou's chapter, since he'll be summarizing the events while telling Yashiro.

I also combined two chapters here!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

《 Previously》

'I'm Yashiro Nene, and these two are Hanako-kun and Hatsume-chan of the seven mysteries!

This morning when I came into class, Hanako-kun and Hatsume-chan had turned into humans!

No one else seemed to think it was strange, what's going on?! Am I going crazy?!'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Y/n) sweatdropped at the scene infront of her, Amane was trying to pull Yashiro by her ankles as she gripped on to the curtains tightly.

"NO! I DON'T WANT TO CLEAN THE POOL!" Yashiro whined, her shoe falling on the ground as Amane kept on pulling.

"Let's~  go~!"

"I don't wanna!"

"Yashiro-chan, you said that you'll help when I asked for volunteers a while back." (Y/n) said, sweatdropping. Amane got tired and just let go of the white haired girl's ankle.

"I said that?" Yashiro asked making Amane and (Y/n) sweatdropped.

"You did. We have to have a few people from each class to help." Amane answered holding the lists of students who was going to help. "We have to ask Minamoto too, since there's not enough people."

Yashiro's ruby red eyes, brightens up at when he said 'Minamoto' "Minamoto?!"

"It's not Teru-kaichou, Yashiro-chan." (Y/n) said. "It's his younger brother."

"Kou-kun!" Yashiro's eyes sparkled with hope. 'If I can talk to him, then maybe we could figure out what's happening!'

"Wait for me! Kou-kun!" Yashiro quickly ran out of the room.

Unknown to her, Amane frowned at her and looked at (Y/n), who lowered her head in guilt.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Kou-kun!" Yashiro ran towards the younger boy with so much passion, her arms stretch towards him. Amane and (Y/n) deadpanned at her.

"Senpai!" Kou grinned and returned the gesture, running towards her with Mitsuba staring at him weirdly while holding a hose.

They both held hands.

"Hanako and Hatsume are spirits right?"

"Mitsuba is a spirit right?"

"Finally someone understands!" The two shook hands furiously and began swapping information without anyone hearing them.

"It's weird! Everyone thinks the two are their classmates" Yashiro whispered.

"Same with Mitsuba." Kou added. "But still, what if we're the ones who aren't normal?"

"Eh?"

"No... It's just that... Really, He just seems so much like a normal student. Maybe this really is how it is from the start." Kou said, his hair covering his eyes. "....Maybe it's.... better...."

"Kou-kun..." Yashiro bit her lip. She hate seeing Kou like this. Loosing Mitsuba before was hard for him.

It kinda... Hurt her when she sees him like this...

She didn't want to admit it but, she actually have a little crush on the young exorcist. Even though she kept denying it, that he's not her type.

She couldn't help but like him for the way he always there to try and protect her.

Two shadows, towered them. Next thing they know, water was suddenly dumped over Kou's head while Yashiro got squirted in the face.

"Hanako-kun?! Hatsume-chan?!"

"You're soaked." Amane grinned, holding a bucket.

"It's a little hot, outside. I thought maybe I could cool you up." (Y/n) giggled mischeviously, holding a water gun.

"I'M GONNA TURN INTO A FISH!" Yashiro screamed in horror as she furiously dried herself with a towel.

"Senpai!" Kou stared at her, concerned.

"Huh?" Yashiro stared at her arm. 'My skin got wet but there's absolutely no scales...'

"Are you okay? Yashiro-chan?" (Y/n) tilted her head in confusion, with a hint of worry as Yashiro pat herself then ran towards the faucet nearby.

'It's true! No scales!' Yashiro thought as she washed her hands. 'How? Maybe Hanako-kun and Hatsume-chan becoming humans has affected it? I don't understand but more importantly...'

Yashiro cried in relief, unaware of the three staring at her weirdly from behind. 'Yes! It's been annoying. Now chores will be so much easier! I can take a normal bath!'

"You guys~! We're starting the cleaning~!" Aoi called out, waving her hands.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Through out the entire cleaning, Yashiro was having a good time. She was being competitive with Amane while cleaning the pool. (Y/n) would just watch them from above the pool, giggling to herself when Amane suddenly slipped.

Meanwhile with Kou, he was having fun with Mitsuba and his two bestfriend. Forgeting the fact that the pink haired boy he used to know was already dead.

Yashiro sighed tiredly as she sat on a bench. "So tired..."

"Senpai, here." Kou being the sweetheart he is, approached the girl with fat ankles and offered her a cool canned beverage.

"Oh. Thank you."

"Can I sit here?"

"Yeah sure."

".....About what we were saying before." Kou decided to say after a few minutes of silence.

"What? No juice for me?" Mitsuba  asked as he appeared behind the bench where the two was sitting on.

"Mitsuba-kun!" Yashiro greet him.

"You two seems awfully close, what are you talking about?" Mitsuba decided to tease them, faking his gasp. "Maybe something, erotic!? Erotic Daikon and the erotic earring! Oh, wait 'till Smol-bean-senpai hear about this!"

Kou deadpanned and placed a cold canned juice on his cheek. "Take this and go. Drink it by yourself."

"Woo~ Smol bean senpai! Yokoo-kun! Satou-kun!" Mitsuba ran away from the two, taking a few canned juice that Kou gave him.

"You guys seems really close." Yashiro said, smiling softly. She was glad that Kou finally moved forward from his friend's death.

"Nah...Not really." Kou rubbed his neck, embarrassed. Avoiding to make eye contact from his senpai.

Yashiro looked at the strange tower. 'Oh and that. That weird tower suddenly appeared too... I should ask about that.'

"Hey, Kou-kun?" Yashiro called her Kouhai but then she noticed something.

From the fence behind her, she saw a girl with messy twin braid passed by. She has a different school uniform and was holding a sketchpad.

"Huh? That girl..." Yashiro stared at her making Kou look at her.

"What is it?"

"Over there... Who is that?" Yashiro asked as the girl began to draw the flowers infront of her.

"That's not our school's uniform." Kou said, now looking at the same girl.

"I wonder what she's doing..." Yashiro asked.

"I think she's drawing...?"

"Nene-chan~! Kou-kun~!" Aoi called out as she approached the two, Akane was with her.

"Aoi! Akane-kun!" Yashiro greet back and pointed towards where the girl was. "Over there... There's some girl drawing."

But the girl was nowhere to be seen.

"Huh?" Yashiro stared at where she was in disbelief.

"She's gone...Where did she go?" Kou asked, confused.

"What about her?" Aoi asked the two.

"She wasn't wearing our school's uniform. So it's kinda weird." Yashiro answered.

"A girl in an unfamiliar uniform..." Akane looked at his childhood friend who stared back.

"And drawing a picture... The it must be..." Aoi added. "Wouldn't that be Shijima-san?"

"Shijima-san? Yashiro asked her friend.

"Yeah, Shijima-san of th art room." Aoi began to tell her the girl's story. "A long time ago, there was a girl who was really good at art. But she died before graduating."

Yashiro stared at her friend in shock. "So that girl was Shijima-san?"

"It seems like... Shijima-san has been a ghost since she died, even until today. It seems like she's still in the school, drawing the pictures that she loved.

She committed suicide before, graduating."

From the tower, Shijima stop from sketching on a huge canva. She picked up a nearby cutter and went to Aoi and Akane's portrait. "This one's no good."

She slashed the portrait. "I'll redraw it."

Just as she did that, Aoi and Akane who was with Yashiro and Kou suddenly broke into pieces like they were statues.

Yashiro's eyes widened in horror "Aoi..... Akane-kun...."

"Senpai! Stay back!" Kou quickly pulled her towards him as he tried to sheild her from the sight.

But the damage was already done, Yashiro already saw it.

Her screamed alerted the nearby students which was Amane, (Y/n), Mitsuba, Yamabuki and Kou's two friends. They all ran towards them to see what was happening.

"What?! What happened?!" Amane asked frantically as him and (Y/n) were the first to arrive.

"Yashiro-chan!" (Y/n) ran towards her trembling friend with worry. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Her and the rest of the boys stared at the two broken figures on the ground. Mitsuba was the first to talk. "Wha-"

"What's the big deal?" The six said in unison, suprising both Yashiro and Kou.

"Huh?"

"They're just broken." Yokoo said as if it was nothing. Satou agreed with him. "Yeah."

"The scream was so loud." Mitsuba tried to calm his rapidly beating heart from shock.

"It's totally fine, they'll be back to normal in no time." Amane said. "In 20-30 minutes or so."

"You worried me for a second there, Yashiro-san." (Y/n) smiled at her friend, but worry was still evidence in her eyes. "I thought you were attacked. Don't worry, Aoi and Akane-kun will be alright."

"I need a picture of this." Yamabuki took out his phone and snapped a picture.

"Why are you all... acting like this is normal?" Yashiro asked them in disbelief.

"Well... It's not like it's uncommon." Yamabuki answered, turning to Amane and (Y/n) who nodded in agreement.

They all began to leave, talking about what happened, laughing. Leaving Kou and Yashiro flabbergasted.

"What the... That was weird." Yashiro shakingly said as she cling on to Kou's black t-shirt. The boy jolted up and stared at her. "Kou-kun... Kou-kun, you think so too, right? This is weird, right? This kind of thing isn't normal, right?"

"Senpai...." Kou muttered. But before he could say anything, Mitsuba appeared behind him.

"Hey! Daikon-senpai, Minamoto-kun. Come help clean too!" The pink haired boy smiled. "Don't just sit here chatting. It's too hard if we're missing two people. Hurry up, Hurry up~! We have to keep going"

"Mitsuba..." Kou suddenly stood up and grabbed the boy by his wrist. He glared at his suppose to be ghost friend. "Don't you think anything is off about this?! Really?! This isn't normal!"

Realization hit the young exorcist hard. "Oh, right... ofcourse it's isn't normal...."

"Minamoto-" Mitsuba tried to say but was cut off, by the same boy, again.

"From the start! From the start I thought 'Maybe he doesn't know.'.....'Maybe he's alive... Maybe Mitsuba's wish came true...' But no... There's something. Something that seems wrong." Kou said.

'Seems wrong...' Yashiro thought, looking towards Amane and (Y/n) who was smiling and laughing with Yamabuki. She was still there watching as Kou continued talking.

"Almost as if-" Kou was beginning to be suspicious and this made Mitsuba nervous. So the pink haired boy cut him off this time, taking his wrist harshly from the blonde.

"Stop it!" Mitsuba snapped. "Even so, what you do.... Such a bother, It doesn't matter anyways."

Kou and Yashiro's eyes widened at what he said next.

"This world isn't even real!" Mitsuba confessed.

"This world is..." Kou muttered.

"Not...real...?" Yashiro finished.

"So you... you do know something after all." Kou squinted his eyes, suspiciously towards his friend. Mitsuba seems to have realized what he said, quickly covered his mouth and ran away from the two.

"Mitsuba wait!" Kou ran after him.

"Mitsuba-kun! What do you mean?!" Yashir did the same and joined with Kou chasing after the pinkette.

Amane frowned as he stared at the two. (Y/n) glanced at him and sighed as she shake her head in disappointment.

But her eyes shows sadness and disapprovement.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You really tried to ran away but we finally caught you."

Mitsuba only scoffed and looked away.

The two managed to catch and tie the boy on a chair. They were now inside an abandoned classroom.

"Give up, Mitsuba" Kou said. "Hanako, Hatsume and you are acting like students and earlier, Aoi-senpai and Akane-senpai broke. And you said that this world is fake, tell us what you know."

"I don't know anything. I don't want to talk to you with your stupif earring" Mitsuba sassed, making Kou ticked off and pulled his ear.

"Maybe I should stick this earring into your ear then, huh?" Kou threated making Mitsuba shreak in fear

"Wait, wait!" Yashiro tried to interfere. She then turned to Mitsuba. "Mitsuba-kun. If you know something, please tell us. Please."

Mitsuba looked away. "I don't know the details either but... Do you really, hate this world?"

"Ofcourse!" Kou yelled. "Aoi-senpai and Akane-senpai broke!"

"Hmph... Just that?"

"Why you little!-" Kou angrily tried to approach him but Yashiro held him back.

"Calm down! Calm down!"

"Good." The two froze as Mitsuba talked again. "Fine. If you hate this world so much, then try going to that place."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two are now standing infront of the weird looking tower.

'the mysterious tower didn't exists until today.' Yashiro thought 'Now that I'm seeing it up close.'

"I'm nervous." Yashiro commented. She wore a spooked up expression. So did Kou.

"Same here. Mitsuba said, we'd find out what we want if we came here." Kou said. "But what if he lied?"

He just sighed. "Let's go, senpai."

"Okay!"

The two began to open the huge door of the tower. A thought entered Yashiro's mind.

'Ofcourse. Without Hanako-kun along with Hatsume-chan here like usual. This all feels strange.'

As the two finally entered inside, the huge door slowly closed shut, leaving them surrounded by darkness and paintings of people.

"Let's move carefully." Kou told Yashiro. Without any warning, he protectively interwined his hand with hers.

Yashiro paid no attention about it, but in reality, she mentally screamed. "Yeah, we don't know what might be here."

The two walked around the room, not noticing the painting of Shijima opened her eyes and glanced at the two.

"It's so dark."

"Isn't there a light somewhere?"

"It's hard to see anything..."

Kou suddenly rammed into a wall. "OUCH! Why is there a wall here?!"

"Kou-kun, are you okay?!" Yashiro glanced at the blonde worriedly. Unaware of the figure behind her.

Kou then heard Yashiro screamed. Only to see Shijima observing Yashiro's ankle as she hold it closer.

"How amazing! They're so huge! I never seen ankles like this before!Are you even human?!" Shijima rambled, pushing her glasses upward to get a better look at it as her eyes twinkled in curiosity and awe. "Do you have large bones? So peculiar..."

"Um... Who are you?" Yashiro asked shakingly.

Shijima seems to want to observe her ankles further only for Yashir to be rescued by Kou.

"Senpai doesn't like that..." Kou sweatdropped, holding Yashiro close to his chest, protectively.

"Ah! I'm sorry! Humans just have interestinh forms." Shijima tried to explain, panicking. She bowed furiously. "Please excuse me, let me greet my guests properly."

The fourth mystery clapped her hands, turning the lights on. Yashiro and Kou looked around them in awe, looking at the paintings, Shijima made.

"This tower is my gallery." Shijima began to introduce herself. "And I am School Mystery Number Four. I am this Art Gallery's guide, Shijima Mei."

The two humans looked at her in shock.

"You're one of the school mysteries?!" Kou asked her in disbelief.

Yashiro stared at the girl. 'Shijima... That's what Aoi said... And she looks like the girl from earlier. So it was really, Shijima-san.

She's also one of the school mysteries, but she's chatting with us and not trying to attack. She doesn't seems like a bad person.

Although that was a bit shocking, earlier.'

"Alright. Let me introduce the exhibit." Shijima said as she gesture towards the paintings on the walls around them.

"Um... We actually didn't come here to see the gallery, though." Yashiro nervously explained. "We came to find a way to change the world back to what it was before."

"Eh? The world as it was before?" Shijima looked at her. She suddenly appeared next to Yashiro and grinned. "I see! Is that so?! That's so amazing!"

'I'm so glad. She does understand after all.' Yashiro beamed. "Is it possible?!"

"Ofcourse!" Shijima said, but there was something in her eyes that Yashiro didn't noticed. "If you want to change the world to how it was before, the method is simple

Yugi Amane....

Mitsuba Sousuke...

And (L/n) (Y/n)....

You need to kill those two boys and the girl."
