Everyone stares at the group as they are still standing. ''C'mon follow me we shouldn't draw too much attention to ourselves!''. Aira commands. ''You ain't leader skank, but you have a point, lets go to the courtyard, barely anyone's there''. Momo says.
The group heads to the courtyard where they can speak freely. Momo paces around. ''I knew there was something off about that kid, I should always trust my gut!''. Momo says. ''Tch same here''. Aira agrees.
''Things are starting to get complicated, he's already graduated but he came back to school, and he has supernatural powers, there's no way he's just here without any other plans''. Okarun deduces.
''Yeah! We can't trust that dude!''. Momo says. ''But, he saved us doesn't that count for something?''. Jiji asks.
''Yeah but he was really reluctant about it, like he was forced or something! I still don't trust him''. Aira says. ''Hmm, He did Jiji but I think it's better not to count him as an ally yet. He has supernatural powers, not to mention when the yokai attacked someone created empty space, with the rumors and everything maybe he could be working with aliens''. Okarun explains.
''Maybe not friendly one's too, like the damn serpo''. Momo says. ''I guess...''. Jiji says disappointed. ''But it could have just been the yokai!?''. Jiji says.
''..We can't just count him out just like that''. Aira replies. ''So what do we do?''. Okarun asks. ''Well then lets pay our new student a little visit''. Momo says clenching her fists. ''Yeah! And we'll capture him and make him spill all his secrets''. Aira replies.
''C'mon lets go!''. Momo says stomping forward with determination as the others follow. ''Uhh, Miss Ayase?''. Okarun asks. ''Yeah what Okarun? Can't you see I'm fired up!''. Momo says. ''Where are we going?''. Okarun asks.
''Yeah ya idiot do you even know where he lives? Plus we still have school!''. Aira points out. ''Uhh''. Momo says. Okarun takes his phone and searches it online.
''It says here he recently bought a mansion outside of town''. Okarun explains. ''A mansion!!?''. Momo, Aira and Jiji say together.
''Damn show off, how far is it from here!?''. Momo says. ''It's a bit far, we can't make it back before break ends''. Okarun explains. ''Tch damn it! He wasn't in the school he just ran off, how come he gets to skip school!?''. Momo says in frustration. ''Whatever we'll go tonight meet ya guys right here at 12AM''. Momo says. ''12AM!? Unlike you I need my beauty sleep!''. Aira protests. ''Whatever if you don't want to be there that ain't my problem''. Momo says walking back to class.
Later that night they meet at the school. ''Aira yooo! you came!?''. Jiji says. ''Of course I did, I couldn't leave you guys without your leader now could I?''. Aira replies with pride. ''For the last time you ain't leader! Whatever lets go, Okarun lead the way''. Momo says.
The group follows Okarun as they arrive at a street with a large fence and inside a mansion. ''Here we are''. Okarun says. ''That mansion's huge, he's so weird... Who the hell buys a mansion unless their hiding something in there." Aira scoffs.
''Well then what are we waiting for lets sneak in!?''. Momo says. ''Wait isn't that illegal?!''. Okarun asks worried. ''What else we gonna do, wake him up and kindly ask him to step out?''. Momo says sarcastically.
Aira transforms and uses her hair to lift everyone over the fence. Stealthily making their way through the dark streets toward Togata's mansion. They carefully approach the side of the house and find a small window slightly open.
''This is it. Quietly now'' Aira says. ''If we catch him of guard, we'll finally get some answers''. Momo says. ''We should stay alert. This place is giving me a weird vibe''. Jiji says worried.
They manage to slip inside the mansion through the window, landing softly in the hallway. The place is grand but silent, the only sound being their careful footsteps on the marble floors. They move quickly and silently, sticking to the shadows as they make their way up the grand staircase.
''This place is huge. I wonder what he's hiding in here''. Momo exclaims. ''Maybe a Spaceship!''. Okarun says excitedly. ''Let's check his room. We'll find him there, when we see him I'll tie him up with my hair and Momo will suppress his powers''. Aira says as she leads the way.
They reach the second floor and approach Togata's bedroom door. It's slightly ajar, and they peek inside. The room is dimly lit, with soft moonlight streaming through the curtains. Togata is lying on the bed, looking like he's asleep, his glasses on the nightstand. The team exchanges glances, ready to enter.
''This is it. Let's move''. Momo says. Just as they take a step forward, there's an eerie, high-pitched scream from the shadows in the room.
''AHHHH! INTRUDERS!''. Tick shouts. The team freezes in shock, turning toward the source of the scream. In the corner of the room stands a tall, blue ghost with a monocle, a top hat.. The ghost stares at them with wide, terrified eyes. ''How dare you sneak into the Toriyama mansion!''. Tick scolds.
Everyone's eyes are wide as they stare at him. ''IS THAT LIKE A GHOST BUTLER?!''. Momo shouts. ''I am not a butler! I am a guide and counselor to Young Master Togata!''. Tick says in frustration.
''A ghost butler?! He has a ghost butler!!?''. Aira shouts a bit envious.
Before anyone can react further, Togata, looking disheveled and sleepy, slowly rises from the bed rubbing his eyes and putting on his glasses. His hair is a bit messy, and he looks like he's just woken up.
''They actually came, how dense are you guys?''. Togata comments. ''I apologize for waking you, Young Master Togata. I will handle these intruders''. Tick says.
''Do it, Tick. But try not to hurt them. I want to question them later''. Togata says as he stands from the bed and faces them.
''Like hell you will!''. Momo says trying to attack. ''We won't let you get rid of us that easily!''. Aira says trying to attack as well.
As the team transforms into their yokai forms except Jiji of course, Togata looks at them nonchalantly, raising an eyebrow.
''Huh, interesting, It looks way different up close''. Togata comments. ''I shall make quick work of you!''. Tick says as he snaps his fings, and the house itself begins to shift and warp around them. Rooms twist and turn as the walls rearrange, trapping the team each into a neatly made bed swaddled to the point where they can't move cleanly lined up in a row, their mouths covered by cloths.
''Hmmmphhhmmmph''. Jiji struggles trying to get free. ''What the heck is going on?!''. Momo shouts managing to get the cloth of her face.
''This isn't good!''. Aira shouts. ''Ugh… We've got to get out of here!!''. Okarun says.
Tick steps forward, looking down at the team with a mix of amusement and mild annoyance.
''Apologies, my dear intruders, but I must insist you stay still for a while. Young Master Togata prefers to have you, much to my dismay of course''. Tick says.
Togata walks over to a chair and gently takes a seat, crossing his arms as Tick flies over to rest on the side of the chair next to him. ''I had a feeling you would come looking for me, but I didn't think you would actually try to enter the house the day you found out? I thought it would be 2 or 3 days after. What did you think you would catch me off sleeping off guard and capture me?''. Togata asks sarcastically.
''Uhh yes''. Jiji replies.
''Uh huh, alright now who's ready for a bit of questioning, let's introduce ourselves shall we?''. Togata says.
