Hanako sighed as he stared at Mitsuba and Shijima like he was a disappointed leader towards his groupmates. "I was hoping that I made myself clear, this goes for No. 3 and No. 4 as well."

      Then he flashed a smile. "I don't intend to let you all leave this place, you must be thick headed."

      "Aw?" Y/n raised an eyebrow at him. "Coming from you?"

      "He's really here!" Kou and Yashiro cheered. Y/n rolled her eyes at Hanako and looked at the pretty moon instead.

      Kou, Yashiro and Mitsuba began to rambled as their voices are mixing with each other making Hanako confused. "One at a time if you don't mind." he said.

      Y/n walked towards him, with an unamused expression on her face as she pointed a finger at him. "I knew you would come and face us."

      "Kissing me at the park then making me pass out." she said. "Then locking me up in a tower like you're some kind of Mother Gothel."

      "Wait?!" Mitsuba cuts them off. "Crazy Knife kissed you?!"

      "Wait I'm confused!" Yashiro looked at Y/n as she began shaking her friend back and forth. "Hanako-kun kissed you?!"

      "Wait a damn minute!" Kou went over to Y/n. "That slimy bastard kissed you?!" he said pointing at Hanako who was still standing on the roof.

      "Oh my, Lord Seven." Shijima smirked at Hanako.

      Shijima wiggled her eyebrows at Y/n. "Did he add the tongue?" she asked.

      "Heck no!" Y/n covered her mouth. "That slipped off unexpectedly I swear!"

      Yashiro cleared her throat. "Anyways, follow the plan guys!" she commanded as Shijima whipped out her sketchbook.

      "Roger that Senpai!" Kou says with enthusiasm while spinning his rataijou.

      "Kay." Mitsuba boredly says.

      Y/n looked at them with confusion. "What plan? You didn't tell me about this?"

      "Here I come Hanako!" Kou raised his staff as it shocked the whole building with his lightning.

      Shijima coughed while fanning her face. "What power..." she said.

      "Hell yeah!"

      "You see that?" Kou asked while aiming his staff at Hanako. "This is the real strength of my power!"

      "Well that was kinda shocking." Y/n gave a big smile at Yashiro and Mitsuba who slightly cringed at her joke. "Eyyy!"

      Hanako flew behind Kou as he pulled out his knife. "Anti-spirit lightning won't hurt me, you know!"

      "While I wear this cloak," Hanako aimed his knife at Kou's staff. "Anti-spirit items won't affect me."

      Kou blocked the attack using his staff. "For real? Then I'll get all up and personal then!" he said.

      Then his staff split into pieces, causing his eyes to widen in shock as he fell to the ground. 'This guy was able to break my staff.' he thought.

      The head of the staff was now on Hanako's hands. "Give me back my family's relic you damn bastard!" Kou yelled.

      "No way~!" Hanako playfully said.

      And that's where Y/n had enough of Hanako's shit. She stood up from her crouching position as she yelled. "CHEESE AND FUCKING FRIES HANAKO WOULD YOU STOP BEING A FUCKING BITCH PLEASE?!"

      Hanako and Kou froze at Y/n's shout. Shijima smiled proudly at Y/n as she held her pencil and sketchbook. "While in this drawing, this fake world belongs to me. It is also my territory." she said walking towards the two boys.

      Hanako turned back to normal without his cloak. His hand burned causing him to drop the head of Kou's staff. "Please control your tsueshiro Lord Seven." Shijima smirked at him. "With this you're unable to use your haku-joudai."

      Shijima hugged Y/n behind to prevent her from smacking the hell out of Hanako. "Please calm down Y/n-chan." she smiled.

      "Let me go I need to hit that stubborn ass bitch on the head to knock that sense out of him!" Y/n yelled.

      "You made Y/n-senpai angry because of what you did!" Kou angrily said at Hanako. "Can't you see that?!"

      Hanako emotionlessly gripped on to Kou's hand as he yanked him closer to him. "Boy, you won't be able to move soon right?" he asked. "Then how do you plan to save Y/n?"

      "In the end, I'm the only one doing anything." He smiled. "So will you shut up a bit?"

      "How about you fucking shut up you selfish ass hoe!" Y/n yelled out as she was dragged away by Mitsuba and Yashiro for the plan.

      "Now Mitsuba-kun!" Yashiro commanded.

      "Gotcha!"

      Mitsuba swoop them up using his powers as he yeet them one by one to the cart. Y/n went to the bike as she gripped on to the handle bars. "Everyone in?!" she asked.

      "This is Y/n L/n speaking we will be arriving to our destination to the moon." Y/n looked back at them and winked.

      "Now I can finally go to the moon!" she beamed as she pedalled faster.

      "Why is she using a rear cart?" Shijima asked.

      "Why is the rear cart flying?" Mitsuba added. Y/n was panting heavily at every pedal she made.

      'I said I wanted a rocket ship, dammit!'

      "Imma ride it like a biker." Y/n sang.

      "Was that a song line?" Shijima asked her. Y/n's eyes widened in excitement that someone had finally got her reference.

      "Yeah!" Y/n answered. "What's your favorite part?"

      "Pt. 3 all the way!" Shijima cheered.

      "Hell yeah!" Y/n shouted.

      Then Hanako stood behind her setting his foot to the screw that connects the cart and the bicycle. "You've done a great job on coming all this way." he said. "But I really can't let you go any further than this."

      Hanako unscrews the screw making the cart and the bicycle fall apart. Y/n tch-ed in irritation. "Hanako you dumbass no!"

      Even though Y/n is a bit mad at Hanako, she managed to cling unto him as they fell out of the bicycle. "Senpai grab on!" Kou says lending her a hand.

      But it was too late, the ghost and the ghosted fell together landing on the clouds below the moon. "We're above the clouds." she said.

      "Not bad for a fake world." Hanako commented. Y/n crawled over to him as he smacked him multiple times.

      "WHAT THE FUCK?!" she yelled at him. Hanako flinched at her tone, he saw that her hands were trembling with anger.

      "You dumbass!" Y/n kept hitting him using her fist. "We're almost to the moon, but what the fuck did you do? You fucked up the whole thing because of your stubborness decided to take over and look what you did? We're stuck on the clouds and the exit is just above us!" she rambled out.

      "You're so fucking selfish you know that?!" she said as she raised her hand to slap him but he grabbed her wrist before she can even do so.

      "But your life is——"

      An irk mark appeared on Y/n's forehead as she pushed Hanako and pinned him to the clouds, silently cheering for herself that she finally did it. "So what if I die next year? I don't want to care, how about you too?"

      "As much I wanted to end my suffering from being neglected, I also want to live at the same time." Y/n says as she looked at his amber orbs. "I wanted to see everyone pursuing what they wanted. I want to see Nene-chan find someone who could love her back and accept her flaws and imperfections."

      "I wanted to see Kou-kun become the greatest exorcist than his brother. I want to see my parents be proud of me once for a while. I want to become an astrologist when I grow up. I wanna have a big house, big cars and big rings. I wanted to keep on looking at the stars, the moon and other celestial bodies."

      "I also wanted to yell 'fuck you' to those people who ghosted their partners. I want to see Souho and Haname so that I can laugh my ass off when they're suffering." she said as tears started to drop at Hanako's face.

      "I want to live my life the best as I can." Y/n buried her face at Hanako's chest as she sobbed.

      Y/n really loved Hanako and this world, but it is too much for it to get real. She didn't want an artificial euphoria.

      She wanted real euphoria, where after she cries, happiness will arrive to wash them away. "Do you just want me to stay here and never leave this place? Tell me why you don't stop this?!"

      Hanako stood up and grabbed her shoulders that made Y/n blink in tears. "That's not it!" he said.

      "Then what is it then?!" she asked as her voice cracked.

      Hanako inhaled and exhaled slowly as he looked at Y/n. The light of the moon shone at her face ever so brightly which made her look unreal and ethereal. "Death is unavoidable anyways, besides what I said will always be a dream, you never know what comes tomorrow..." she said. "If my fate says I'm not going anywhere then I'm not going anywhere."

      "If I die, I die." Y/n finished. "That's it, don't make it worst please, I'm trying to cope with my life."

      "How can you say something like that?!" Hanako asked her. "We are both the same! We have no future! I'm only here to atone for my sins."

      Y/n's face etched into a small smile. "A real sin is something you can never atone for." she said.

      Hanako leaned his face closer to hers. "Y/n you are a foul mouthed person, is it really necessary to add 'fucking' in every situation?" he asked.

      "You're always flustered whenever I mess with you, you are also dual, you also believe that you're always in a rollercoaster with loops and twists. You're also a smartass and a cocky person."

      Y/n averted her eyes away from him. "Well I can't argue with that."

      "But in the same time, you're very kind and you are very open towards me." he said as he caressed her shoulders. "Just seeing you blush and smile, would already make my day."

      "I knew about your life span from the very start." Hanako explained as he looked down on her still holding her shoulders. "I mean I'm dead after all."

      All of his memories with Y/n came flashing in his mind. He noticed that he became motivated whenever he sees her.

      She was the cause of his euphoria.

      "I never cared who died..." he said. "Really, I didn't... I didn't."

      "I thought I didn't..." Y/n trembled with sadness as she cried softly infront of him.

      "I want you to keep on living..." Hanako said softly.

      Being ghosted was the worst thing according to Y/n herself.

      But seeing Hanako in this state where he was losing hope and out of balance, really did made her heart ache with pain.

No, I resist
It's not time to commit
Precious moments remains
It's warming up
I feel it
Our last goodbyes
