Case 17: Turnabout Terror

[The morning immediately after her horrifying experience with the Coral Cannibal, Kay wakes up in her own bed with a start.  Her heart racing, she flails about in a panic, knocking the phone off the receiver.  The whole of Mayfield is treated to the very loud and utterly terrified scream of a young 17 year old thief.]

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

[There is the sound of heavy, panicked breathing along with the rustling of bedsheets as Kay tries to make sense of her surroundings while trying to remember just what happened the previous night.  She's talking to herself, barely aware that she's narrating her own thoughts out loud.]

"W-what was that...?  Sharp pain... and... then.  Just darkness.  And blood... blood everywhere..."

[Huddles underneath her sheets, pulling them tightly around her so that nothing but her face is showing.  She's like a small child convinced of the magic power of her blanket, as if it will somehow protect her against the monsters that lurk in the shadows just out of sight.  And she just stays like that, rocking back and forth and quietly murmuring to herself, still totally unaware that the phone is off the hook.]

[Some more noise as she scrambles around knocking things over trying to get to the phone in her panic.]

"W-who is this?"

[Oh dear - he realised he's probably scared the shit out of her. Okay, try and calm her down]

Whoah! It's all right! I'm not gonna hurt ya - I'm from one of the other houses.

[Breathing heavily, trying to calm herself down.]

"I-I think something killed me...

N-no... I'm sure of it. It was terrible..."

...the hell was that all about?

[ Yamamoto didn't sleep that night. Never in his life had he seen so much blood, so much horror. And, on top of that, Kay...was gone. And he blames himself for that too. There are so many what-ifs running through his head that he couldn't bring himself to sleep, not that he wanted to, even if Kay was there.

When he hears her scream over the phone, however, he immediately bots up to listen. And then immediately bolts for her house. He knocks a few times on her front door before throwing it open and running up the stairs.

So, Kay, have a Yamamoto standing in your doorway, panting and looking like he hadn't slept. His clothes from the previous night are gone, trashed. Have you ever seen him this scared before? ]


...Kay.

What?! Something killed you?! [Come to think of it, Zidane had been told about people coming back to life the other day. Perhaps that was what happened to this girl? Either way, she certainly sounded like she went through something terrible..]

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I... I don't know. S-something killed me. Last night. It was horrible...

[He finds Kay sitting on her bed, huddled under the sheets just as described before. Her eyes are glazed over in absolute terror, and she doesn't even notice he's there at first. She's just rocking back and forth like a traumatized child, shivering.]

K-Kay-san!?

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Y-yeah...

[Have some creepy silence followed by random noise as Kay knocks things over on the way to the phone.]

"T-Tsuna...?"
bombbrat: (Where did he catch that from?)

[personal profile] bombbrat 2010-05-25 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
.....

Shit... what was it?

[Theo wakes up in his bed, not completely sure what happened. The last two days for him have been a blur of pain and confusion. When he notices his face and head feel fine again, he puts together that he died, but how? Before he could think things through further, there's a blood-curdling scream from a few rooms down.

What the hell? That was definitely Kay.

Theo gets up to investigate, and knocks on Kay's door.]


Kay? What the fuck happened?

"...I don't know. It got me from behind. Just... teeth. Sharp teeth in the back of my neck."

[Her voice is extremely shaky and uneasy.]

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[There is complete silence for a few moments, and then finally a small voice as it finally registers that someone is talking to her.]

"S-something killed me. Something with a... lot of teeth."

[identity profile] failboatboss.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Kay-san, what's wrong? Are you alright?

[ his voice seems panicked and worried ]

[identity profile] sanctusdei.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[He thinks a moment. That sounds familiar to him. He continues to talk through the door.]

Was that what happened? Any idea what it was?
bombbrat: (What the hell--?)

[personal profile] bombbrat 2010-05-25 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
...[Sharp teeth. A vampire? No, it would've been obvious if it was something like that. Some sort of alien? Once again, that would have been obvious. But,come to think of it. Hadn't he seen something with sharp teeth before...?]

...hopefully, this teaches you to be a bit more careful around here. You can't just go walking around unprepared like that.

[ He still has his bat in his hand, unwilling to let go of it, just in case...she needs protecting.

Both times he should've protected her, and he wasn't there. Some boyfriend he was... ]


Kay...

[ He says it again as he walks toward her bed, panting and looking terrified. Like she's going to disappear or something. ]

I wasn't! The killer came here!

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[Turns slowly to look at him, tears forming in her eyes.]

"T-Takeshi..."

[Just flops forward into his arms, crying hysterically.]

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I... was killed last night.

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
No... I never even saw it. Just a loud crunch at the back of my neck, and then... it all went dark.
bombbrat: (You can't buy a new one now.)

Did you have your doors locked?
