Corpse Party
Life Switch
Chapter 1 – What Happened?
It was a normal day just like any other. I had woken up, tidied myself up, eaten breakfast, and gone to school. Just like any other day. I had hung out with my friends, barely gone through the day without falling asleep with boredom, and I had gone home. It had been a completely normal and boring day. Still, something made it end in a way I had never expected.
When I got home and had done my homework, I booted up the computer to see if there was anything for me to watch. I kind of felt like watching my favorite youtuber play some Corpse Party, Repeated Fear. I had already watched the playthrough several times, but I didn´t have anything better to do and I kind of liked these episodes. So when I watched Naomi, Satoshi and the others gather around the Sachiko Ever After Charm doll, I was really relaxed. Even though I felt a stinging feeling. "I wish I could help those guys though… They don´t have to die… Mayu, Seiko, Ms. Yui and Morishige…. These guys don´t have to die if someone would just help them…" I sighed as l watched them grip hold of the paper charm.
The next thing that happened I can´t really understand. The ground suddenly began to shake violently, stuff began to fall and smash around me, and dust and wood chips fell down onto my head as the building shook. I looked around in a state of panic "W-What"?! An earthquake!?" I was really shocked to find out that apparently, an earthquake had started. There was never earthquakes in the area I lived, so I was in a fit of panic and didn´t know what to do. I squatted and made myself as small as possible, clasping both my hands on the sides of my head as to attempt to block out the deafening noises inside and outside my head. I closed my eyes as hard as I can, almost as if I tried to convince myself this was not real in a fit of panic and fear. This was a mistake though. This was the reason I didn´t see a ceiling beam fall towards me, hitting me hard in the back of the head. I yelled loudly of pain and I could hear the back of my head crack as I limply fell to the ground, knocked unconscious by the blow to the back of my head.
Meanwhile, at Kisaragi Academy. Satoshi´s POV
Me and all of my friends were about to rip the small paper doll into 9 different pieces, when the ground suddently started to shake violently. The girls screamed and Yoshiki yelped loudly in surprise, as the small paper doll slowly swayed down onto the ground " W-What the hell!? An earthquake?!" he yelled loudly as Mayu fell on her butt, Morishige barely keeping himself on his feet "Everyone calm down! Get into some doorframes until it passes!" Ms. Yui, calm and rational as always, told us to get into the doorframes. I wasn´t sure why though. I still thought it would be for the best though, since Ms. Yui probably know more about this than we do. Everyone headed for the doorframe, cramming themselves together. Of course I got crammed close up against Naomi, and both of us got a blush as we looked at each other, my breathing getting ragged as the others pushed us against each other even more. Suddenly a blinding light enveloped everyone, blinding us for around 10 seconds or so, before the light finally disappeared and we could see again. "W-What was that light?" I asked softly as I looked around and slowly made my way back into the classroom. I looked around at the damage that had been done to the classroom. "Woah.. for an earthquake it didn´t do all that much damage…" I heard Yoshiki say somewhere behind me. I just nodded and looked around in the classroom.
The damage was minimal for an earthquake. A lamp lied on the floor smashed, it´s glass strewn all over the floor, dust and woodchips lied all over the place. A couple of windows was smashed but seeing how powerful that earthquake felt, the damage seemed pretty minimal "Shit… that scared the crap out of me " Seiko cried out as she ducked behind Naomi and pushed her in front of herself like a shield as we made our way inside. "Hey… wait a minute…" I heard Ayumi say softly as she made her way to the farthest corner of the classroom.
I looked at her and realised what had caught her attention. She squatted and leaned over a young guy, that was leaned up against the wall, and seemed to be unconscious. He was maybe a little younger than us. He looked like he was about 15 or 16 years old. He was pretty tall for his age actually, almost as tall as me. He was wearing blue jeans, a black shirt and t-shirt and dark grey fingerless gloves. His nose and mouth was covered by a dark greay and black scarf. His hair was dark brown and long, and reached down all the way to his eyebrows. "Who is this guy…? How did he get here?" I asked silently as I sat beside Ayumi and checked him out. She simply shrugged and sighed "Well we won´t find out before he wakes up right? We should take him to the school infirmary" She said with a small tremble in her voice. Even though she was known throughout the school as the occult horror expert, she still would get really scared whenever something big and serious came up. To try and calm her down I put my hand on her shoulder and looked at her with a smile as she turned her head my way "Calm down Ayumi.. He is only unconscious. Let´s get him to the infirmary like you said" I said in my most calm voice. To tell the truth I was pretty worried too but I couldn´t show it to her. It would only freak her out more. She nodded slowly and Yoshiki came over and helped me carry the guy to the infirmary.
At the infirmary.
I softly blinked my eyes open and moaned a little as the sharp light blinded me for a moment. "Wait…Where…?" I moaned softly, before I saw a couple of figures by the bed I was lying in. They kind of seemed familiar " Ah! Ms Yui! He is awake!" I heard a high pitched voice say, as the figure moved away and out of the room I was in. My vision cleared a little as I rubbed my eyes and I sat up looking around the room. It seemed I was in an infirmary of some kind. The name that had been called kind of seemed familiar to me. When the person came back with who I assumed would be Ms. Yui, I rubbed the back of my head which was hurting a bit. I widened my eyes in surprise when I realised my head was bound with a giant gauze. I ran my fingers over it a little before looking up at the two woman that had approached me slowly. I recognized the girl beside the woman from somewhere. "M-Mayu…?" I asked softly as she approached and she widened her eyes as she heard me "Y-You know who I am…?" She asked softly as she approached the bed slowly.
I softly nodded a little and rubbed the sore spot in the back of my head "W-Who are you..?" Ms. Yui softly asked as she sat down in a chair beside my bed. I looked at her with a worried expression. I could remember my name but… everything else about me was wiped from my memories. I didn´t know where I lived, where my family was if I even had one, or how I got here. "M-My name… I-Is Yusohei. Yusohei Misagara" I said softly as I looked at Ms. Yui with a soft smile. She nodded at me and looked at my head concerned. " Misagara-kun. Are you ok?" Mayu asked softly as she sat beside Ms. Yui. I nodded a little and rubbed the back of my head " Yeah I'm fine thank you… Just a little sore. And I don't really remember anything…" They both gasped and looked at me before Ms. Yui nodded "Anything at all? You don't remember your family? Where you live?" I sighed and shook my head sadly as I looked down. "I don´t even remember how I got here." I said softly as I looked up at the two young woman "But somehow I still recognize you two…" I said softly. They looked at me a little confused before looking at each other with worried expressions. I stood up and rubbed the back of my head again before smiling at them. "Thanks for taking care of me but I think I need to find a place to stay for the night." I said softly as I slowly walked out, feeling a bit dizzy.
I walked out in the hall outside and realized there was more people waiting for me. Four girls, one smaller and younger than the others, and two boys who seemed to be around the same age was waiting for us out in the hallway. For some reason, I could remember each individual´s name. "Hey guys…" I said softly as if I already was best friends with them. They all looked up from the conversations they had or their cellphones and silently approached me, everyone smiling brightly "Hey dude. How is your head?" The tall brown haired boy named Satoshi asked me "it´s fine Satoshi thank you… just a little dizzty that´s all…" He looked at me surprised "Huh? You know my name?" I nodded and smiled a little "Oh yeah I haven´t told you guys. Well basically I don´t know how I got here, I have no memories of my past, but for some reason I still remember you guys. I know you from somewhere and I know your names." They all gasped or raised eyebrows under my speech, but nodded finally as I finished. I´m not really sure if they understood everything though, especially the little girl I knew was named Yuka. She seemed to be the one who was most confused by the whole thing.
The girl with brown hair and curls on each side of her head stood forward and smiled at me widely "What´s your name?" She asked as I smiled at her "I´m Yusohei. Yusohei Misagara." I said as I smiled around at everyone "You can just call me Yusohei though." I said as I bowed, dizzily woppling forward as I did. The girl help me regain my balance and smiled as she thumbed up "Well I will introduce myself even though you know me in advance. I´m Seiko Shinohara. I´m in class will all of these people" She said as she gestured towards the others with her arm "Except for this little cutie here. She is Satoshi´s younger sister Yuka, and she is going to the middle school in town" She said happily as she patted Yuka on her head, and she got a childish giggle in return. Yuka smiled and walked over to me with a snicker before wiggling her middle finger in a motion that indicated that I should come closer. I squatted down and she whispered in my ear "I think Seiko think you´re cute. She is checking you out all the time" She said with a giggle as my face lit up red like a tomato. I looked back at her and she was indeed looking at me. When she realised I was looking at her she blushed and quickly looked away. I did the same and smiled a little before standing up and looking at everyone "Well it was nice meeting you guys but I think I should get going. I need to find somewhere I can stay" I said with a huge sigh before I began to walk down the hall. I didn´t come very far before I felt a small and petite hand take hokd of mine, and I blushed before looking back at the person that had stopped me.
When I turned I realised it was Seiko, who had taken hold of my hand. "W-Wait…" She said silently, her facial expression turning flustered "U-Until you find a place well.. Y-You can stay at my home if you want…" She said, her face lighting up. I blushed and felt my face heat up to the extreme as I realized it was her hand that was in mine "W-What!? You haven´t even asked your parents yet… are you sure it´s ok for me to stay at your place?" I said as I looked at her stunned. She then let go of my hand and nervously twiddled her thumbs "Well my mom disappeared a while ago and my dad is always working so… i´m pretty much alone with all my younger siblings" She said with a big smile. "Oh.. I´m sorry…" I became kind of worried that I may have pushed the wrong button since I didn´t know her mother had disappeared. But she simply dismissed my apologies with a smirk " it´s ok. She is gone and has been for years. I´m over it" She said with a thumbs up. I nodded a little and smiled as she walked up beside me "So what do you say? Wanna stay at my place until we get your memory back?" she said with a smile. I nodded a little and smirked "Sure I don´t have anywhere else to go." As I laughed a little and looked back at the others "Come on guys! We gotta get home before the storm outside get´s worse!" And I took Seiko´s hand and everyone began running down the hall and out into the dark street, where we all spreaded and parted ways.
Fifteen minutes later. About 500 meters from Seiko´s place.
We ran and ran and ran. We ran through the rain, Seiko and I. Seiko had forgot her umbrella this morning so we had no choice but to run through the rain like this. She had become soaked through so I decided to take off my shirt. "Seiko wait a minute." She stopped running and looked back at me in surprise. "What´s up Yosuhei?" she asked as she watched me take off my shirt. "Here" I said as I held the shirt over her head to shield her from the rain "Now you won´t catch a cold" I said with a smirk. She looked at me with concern "But you´re just as wet as I am. Don't you need this?" She asked as she pointed up at the shirt above her head. I shook my head a little and smirked at her before giving her a thumbs up "Don´t worry. I don´t get sick that easi- ACHOO!" I had tried to convince her that I wouldn´t get sick but that had miserably failed because of my sneezing. She put her hands on her hips and pouted at me " You don´t get sick easily huh? Come on hurry my house is right down here" She said as she continued to run. I sighed a little and dried my nose of snot before running after her, soon arriving at her house.
I looked up at the building, then over at Seiko. "You sure I can stay here?" I asked her warily as I gradually grew more and more nervous for some reason "I´m sure it´s fine. Dad can´t really complain since he is almost never home" She said with a smile before we entered and dried off our shoes, and slowly walk into the entrance way. "Yuu! Everyone i´m home!" Seiko yelled as we entered, Seiko´s three younger siblings soon appearing in the doorway that I assumed led out to the kitchen of the residence. I saw three little kids, two small girls and a little boy, the boy may have been 10, and the girls could have been 8 or 9. "Hey look! Seiko brought her boyfriend home!" they little boy exclaimed happily as he smirked, which resulted in both me and Seiko blushing madly "Yuu shut up. Or you´re going to bed without food tonight!" this made a terrified face appear on the young boys face, and giggles from the girls "You wouldn´t dare!" he said as he stared at his older sister. His sister smirked and glared at him "Test me I dare you." She said evilly as she chuckled at him like an evil witch. Finally he gave in and sighed "Ok ok you win." He said as the sisters laughed at him.
After dinner that night.
Seiko had somehow convinced her dad that I could stay at her room at night. He had come home relatively early and apparently I had had no reason to be nervous. He was a kind and happy man, welcoming anyone into his family with open arms. His daughter was a lot like him I'll tell you. Under the dinner me and Seiko had been talking almost all the time, and we had had a very fun time with the little ones. It had been a very fun time with everyone, and I appreciated every minute of it. Seiko sure had a wonderful family.
And now I was standing in her room. Seiko had gone to the toilet to change and brush her teeth there, which gave me more than enough time to change into some night garments her father had lent me. I smiled and rolled out the spare Futon the family had given me and smiled as I got the sleeping bag and rolled it out. I smiled and buried myself into the bag, just as Seiko entered her room in a, shall we say revealing pyjamas. I blushed deep red and desperately tried to keep eye contact with her. She smirked a little before crawling into her own bed " You like what you see?" she whispered seductively. I blushed deep red and looked away "I-I-I don't know what you´re talking about" I said and stammered, to which I got a giggle and a mischievous "Suuuuuree.." I sighed a little and turned back to look at her. "Thanks for today… and for this.. it was fun." I said lowly as we stared at each other, a faint blush visible on her cheeks "No problem. That´s what friends do right?" she said as she smiled at me. Somehow this smile gave me some kind of feeling in my chest. A nice and warm feeling, but still scary and unknown. It was something I hadn´t quite felt before. A feeling I hadn´t felt with anyone else. It was kind of new to me, and it scared me a little.
I smiled a little and sighed as I turned to look up at the ceiling "Do you think Ms. Yui would object if I started in your class?" I asked as I stared up at the ceiling. "I´m sure she would be fine with it. If you enroll in our school, let´s make sure we have a lot of fun together ok?" She said with a childish smile. I chuckled and nodded "Mmmhhm. Im sure we will…." I said as I turned back to look at her. "Goodnight Seiko…" I said silently before slowly drifting into slumber."Goodnight Yosuhei…" She whispered back before turning away and also fall asleep.
