Flashback

After several experiments with a ghost and murder earlier, the 4 regulars decided to go home, and of course after they successfully escape from some news and TV reporters. It was actually quite a shock for the community, many parents now questioning the school's human resource, since they were the one who recruit the worker. Some of them never believed that Mr. Tanaka could be the murder, since Mr Tanaka was known by the community as a kind person, a person who could adjust himself with his society, and was always become a centre of children affection. The headmaster himself assured there would be a more proper training for the worker.

The parents, of course became more caution about their children, as for Kikumaru's parents, after received the news about their kid from the telephone, they quickly came to school and get Kikumaru personally, it's goes the same with Tezuka's parents. While Fuji's picked up by his sister and mother, Oishi's father came to pick his son. Tezuka twitched his eyes when he saw his parents, even his grandfather came to pick him, while the other just grin when they looked at their bucho (2) being treated like elementary child. A hint of blush also could be seen on his cheek, but surprisingly, he gave them a slight smile, when finally his parents thanked the school and began to walk him home, he gave the other a little wave even his face seem beam a little. Fuji's mother just hug her son as she make sure herself, her son wasn't hurt. The sister also rub his head, and after show their appreciation to the school, they went inside the red sport car and drove away, not before he waved to Kikumaru and Oishi.

Oishi's father seem so worried about his son too much, since he asked too many question about his condition, Oishi just smile as repeatly said he's all right. Oishi waved at Kikumaru as he followed his father walk to the headmaster. His father made headmaster swear not to have another case like this inside the school or he would move his son to other school which made Oishi repeatly said sorry. Kikumaru himself got so many lectures from both of his parents, of course after being hug from both of them. After the lecture, the parents expressed thank to Ryusaki sensei and the head master, the three of them moved to the family car and drove away. When they finally reached the house, there were so many commotion occurred, the brothers and sisters worried about their ochibi (3), and began to ask this and that, even their grandparents were all over the smallest from the family. Being Kikumaru, he liked this, after all he likes being the centre of affection.

"Now what?" said Kikumaru again as he looked around him, he was in his own room, alone and quite dark as he searched for the voice, when finally his eyes recognized the figure standing close to the window curtain. He sighed as he put his slipper, and walked toward the boy. "…do you still need anything from me?" he asked as he leaned on the wall next to window and eyeing the boy. Surprisingly he was not as afraid as before when suddenly the boy looked up at him. He widened his eyes as he saw the figure, the boy's cloth was white, with no trance of blood, and his face seemed to beam. Slowly, the boy disappeared, leaving nothing except a single white feather. A whisper could be heard around the room. "Arigatou, Acrobatic-Nissan."

A blink, how did he know that I could do acrobatic? He blink again as confusedly look at the feather. Shrug, he took the feather and looked through the window to the clearly sky. Looking at the star above, he smiled. "You came here just to say thank you? You are welcome." He closed his eyes and prayed for the little boy's soul and moved back toward his desk. Looking at the feather, he put it inside the secret box in his drawer and treasures it.
