Midnight Couple: War Between Two Worlds

Back to Kyushu, the Matsuoka household secret

After Kyoko recovered, the two of them returned to the city that night. They went to a small inn that had a hot spring on the edge of town. It was already midnight, because in the inn it was only available one room finally they took it. Then they went straight to the hot spring.

Toshio went straight into the hot spring and soaked after washing his body. Since the bath was an open-air bath, he looked up at the star while leaning by the pool.

“Until when it should be like this, summer vacation is only 2 weeks away and do I have to go back to that school again ? with the enemy turned out to be a classmate and no more Haru chan as well as Yuu kun. Why is everything like this?”

Toshio's mind continued to drift, he also thought of the words Kyoko said asking him until when we should put this up. Toshio closed his eyes and tried to stop thinking for a moment. Suddenly his cellphone that he brought and put on the edge of the pool vibrated. He immediately opened his eyes and took his cellphone behind his. As soon as he saw it turned out there was an unknown number to send a message. The message sounds,

“Don't go home to Tokyo, the conditions there are getting chaotic, go to Kyushu, find Matsuoka's secret.”

“Who sent this message ? Aniki ?”

Then Toshio tried to dial the number and hooked up, but then turned it off. Then he tried again and the number turned out to be wrong, completely out of touch. He's getting more astonished.

“Matsuoka's secret ? what does it mean ?”

Toshio thought hard. Arriving from the women's bath next to her, Kyoko shouted.

“Toshi san...can you hear ? did you get a message no ? someone sent me a message so I could go back to Kyushu and not to Tokyo.”

“Iya, I also got the same message...now we are out.”.

Toshio immediately stood up and walked out, he dried his body and went to the locker to change clothes. After that she went straight out and waited for Kyoko who was in the female bath next to her. Soon Kyoko gets out and they go straight back to her room. Inside they sat. Kyoko immediately showed her phone to Toshio who also showed her phone to Kyoko.

“Hmm her sender number is the same, what happened in Tokyo ?”

“I tried calling her but who spoke to the operator and said her number is not listed or wrong.”

“I also tried it...who sent it....”.

“Toshi san, we are told to return to Kyushu...”.

“Iya is right and looking for Matsuoka's secret ? you have an overview of Kyoko ?”

“To be honest, even though I am a child of the Matsuoka family, this thing I just heard today, I did not know that my family kept a secret.”

“Then we investigate the same..”.

“Iya Toshi san.

They went to sleep that night. The next morning they went straight to the airport and flew towards Kyushu. After arriving in Kyushu they immediately go to the Kyoko family home which has been half destroyed. They broke through the yellow line of the police and went inside.

“Papa's workspace has been destroyed..In my room there is clearly nothing, we try to granny's room.”.

They went straight to the right part that was still intact and entered the grandmother's room. Inside they saw a closet, a bed, a writing desk and next to her dressing table. In the dresser drawer they found a book that was the diary of the grandmother.

“Toshi san, this is grandma's book, can I read ?”

“Read it, I don't think grandma will beat her.” either

“Read the same ? i'm afraid..”.

“I'm with you yes, I have no right to read it.”

They also sit in bed. Kyoko starts reading it from front to middle, in the book grandmother wrote her daily life from she was young until finally married by Kyoko's grandfather and lived in this house. Then the rest of all happenings every day in this house, from her papa married to her mama, Kyoko was born until she became big. When it came to the date of the day on which grandmother died, the rest were just blank sheets. Kyoko turned the blank sheet back and there was an ancient photo that fell with a digital photo.

Toshio who was next to Kyoko bent over took the photo and looked at her color/digital photo. The moment he saw his Toshio was immediately shocked, because in the photo is a photo of the matsuoka family and the gonzo family who were gathering. She sees a papa, her mother who is holding a baby and a small Akito, while on Kyoko's side there is a papa, her mother who is pregnant, a grandmother and a woman of foreign descent.

“Kyoko..see..the most end women on this right..”.

Toshio was shaking with his photo. Kyoko immediately went forward looking at her photo and then she was immediately startled to shut her mouth.

“It's right….Sharon san....?”

“See date below photo.”.

“Year 2003, but Sharon san has not changed, she is the same as the time we met at that restaurant.”

Then Toshio flipped over his picture and behind it was another photo of his young and unmarried grandmother. In the photo, Grandma was standing with 2 people.

“See Kyoko..it's a sticky black and white photo behind the photo..it's granny on the far left, in the middle it looks like your mama, and on the right..”.

“Sharon...not to be mistaken, this is Sharon san and if you look at their clothes, this is the era of the 70s. Means...”.

“Yes is not wrong anymore, Sharon is a vampire, the possibility that killed my family and killed your mother is Sharon.

The two of them fell silent after learning that Sharon was a vampire. After that Toshio immediately stood up.

“Where to Toshi san ?”

“Searching elsewhere, in grandma's room is nothing else right.”

“Good..ayo we search again.”

Kyoko also immediately stood up and they came out of grandma's room. They went around the house on the right which only had a dining room, kitchen, warehouse in the back, bathroom and one empty room. After that don't get what they got out of that house.

“Hmm where else yes...”.

“There is one place we have not yet entered Toshi san...”

“Oh where ?”

Kyoko pointed to a separate building next to the house that had not been destroyed. The building is a dojo where Kyoko and her father practiced and the building where she was brought in that night where she slaughtered everything for the first time.

“I'm the only one there..you wait here..”.

Toshio understands Kyoko's feelings and asks her to wait at his house.

“No...I am coming..ayo Toshi san.”.

They walked and headed to the dojo.

“That time I've been here.but because on the chain I didn't go into.”.

“Iya I know...now just unload the chain.”

Kyoko instantly turns her hand into her demon hand shape and pulls the broken chain that binds her door.

After that they went straight inside. The room in the building was empty, on the side of the note was a large mirror and in the center of the room was a small podium where the great teacher was seated. There was a small tea table and on the back wall was a kendo inscription, below the writing there is a katana placed in its place on top of a long closet that has many drawers.

Toshio and Kyoko head straight for the small podium and check the drawer of the closet under the katana sword. They did not find anything in the drawer that only contained a list of students, kendo lessons and others.

Kyoko looks at the sword on display above her, then her hand goes up wanting to take her. When he was already holding her and wanted to lift her, the sword could not be lifted as if it would stick to his place. Kyoko pulls him with all her might but the sword does not come off. Because she thought she couldn't escape, Kyoko let go of her grip and accidentally pushed her backwards. The sword instantly retreated along with his place on the table. “Klek” sounds an open key. “Grek grek grek” Sounds something shifted.

Toshio immediately looked and turned around, the mirror on the right of the building was shifted and inside was a ladder down towards the bottom.

“Kyoko..see..mirror shifted and there is a ladder leading down...we enter ?”

“Wah I didn't know there was a room like this inside the dojo, I thought it was just an ordinary mirror.”

They come closer with hearts. Toshio looked at Kyoko, then the two nodded and began to go down the stairs with a heart. They joined hands and descended the stairs vigilantly. As it grew darker, Toshio took out his fire wings and was scaled down to illuminate the path. Finally they arrived at a door below.

“I open...”

“Good, heart of Toshi san..”.

Toshio opened the door slowly and carefully. Then when it opens he goes inside. Inside the room were many bookshelves, ancient sword intent, ancient war armor, some ancient samurai clothes, and a table with a pile of books on it. At the door they came there was another door. They went straight to the door at his door. Toshio opened the door slowly and went inside. They both saw a room containing a used bed, a wardrobe, a dressing table and on the wall above them were some chains planted to the wall. A chain to bind hands, bodies and feet like those in ancient prisons.

“This room is obviously a room...but whose room is it ?”

“I just found out there is something like this under the dojo....what is hidden here is the same papa ?”

They then saw that in the room, Toshio opened his wardrobe containing old clothes that had been weathered, maybe clothes around the year 70 or 80. Kyoko checks the dressing table on the right, which is still full of a lot of makeup equipment and bottles of cosmetic bottles that are already dry and damaged. After that, Toshio walked to the broken bed, he turned back the pillow that had been moldy and moist, then he checked under her. Kyoko checks the rusty chain link stuck on the wall of the room.

“Nothing is here...”.

“Iya is right...but this is the former room who is it?”

“Wah I don't know..but obviously your papa locked someone here...”.

Kyoko was silent. Then he looked under the bed and was shocked.

“Toshi san..please lift his mattress...

“Eh what's up..?”

“Have just lifted...”.

Toshio immediately lifted his mattress and set it up on the side of the bed. Under the bed was a music box to store jewelry. Kyoko immediately took the box and Toshio immediately lowered the mattress back as before.

They came out of the room and went up to the dojo with the jewelry box. As soon as he got to the top, Kyoko immediately opened the box. A song also broke the silence. Inside the box they saw a small knife, a key, a wad of hair and a piece of mail.

Kyoko immediately took the letter and opened it, the letter was an ancient map, like the entire plot of several buildings seen from above. Inside the plan there is a cave that is given a different graffiti and an arrow at the end of which there is the inscription “Gate to the world..” The rest of his writing is unreadable.

“Hmm obviously this is not a map of your home Kyoko.

“Ya..the main building in front, the second building behind her are smaller and several smaller houses behind her again….and this colored point is behind and outside the whole complex like a cave on a cliff.”

“At the entrance of the complex there is a picture of torii means this temple complex...”.

“But where is this temple...the temple behind its forest then there is a cave...”.

Toshio and Kyoko realize something and they see each other.

“Suzu chan temple...” Shouted both.

Immediately, Kyoko closes her box and puts it in her backpack. Then the two of them immediately ran out of the dojo and closed it back down. Then they immediately flew towards the temple where they met Suzu for the first time.

They went straight to the small house where they were talking to Suzu. They just landed in front of him. The building used for the ritual was no longer there was only debris left and a pile of charred wood. They try to get inside Suzu's house and exit through her back door. They continued to walk down the path that led into the forest.

After walking through the forest they arrived at a cave covered by a rope with many talismans and talismans around it. Kyoko retrieves another jewelry box from her bag and instantly reads again the ancient map.

“Should be this cave Toshi san..”.

Kyoko looks at the point on the map while watching the dark cave in front of her.

“Ayo Kyoko, there is only one way to make sure...we have to enter..”.

“Alright...sini...I'm afraid...”.

“Iya..hold my hand and the road next to me. I want to take out my wings.”.

Then they went straight through the rope that was used to close the cave. Inside Toshio instantly took out another wing for lighting and Kyoko walked on the side while embracing her arm and the other hand holding the box. Finally they reached a large gate. Toshio tried to open the door but could not.

“Locked..this is no keyhole….Kyoko, try the key that's in that box.”.

“Good...separta.”.

Kyoko opened the box and heard a song. Suddenly they were shocked because the gate was lit up brightly upon hearing the song. And the keyhole shrinks. Then Kyoko gives the key to Toshio. And just go straight to Toshio put the key into a keyhole that has shrunk. “Klek...” The key is open. Toshio directly pushed the flaming gate away. The gate opened, and the two of them entered the gate.

“A..what...ini....d..where are we ?”.

“Toshi san...I'm afraid..”.

They went out and saw a very different view of their world, in front of them was a different world. In the sky there were two months, in front of them a thick expanse of forest and many large birds flying even at night. Toshio and Kyoko stand on a cliff and look at everything while embracing each other.
