Nadeshiko peeks out of the stall, flashlight roaming over the pencil. Another shiver runs down her spine as she steps forward to pick it up, bending over for a moment before running her flashlight under the stall doors to make sure no one was just hiding.
Once again she was completely alone, alone in the bathroom with a ghost she'd never expected to find. As she stood once more she noticed the new words on the mirror... on all the mirrors...
"Listen... I'm uhm... I'm really flattered. I truly am but uhh.. no, wait.. I'm a detective. I always get the case done, always complete the case. What do you want with me? Do you want me to come with you?"

How far was she willing to take this prank?
Nomen grinned. She knew there was only one way to finish this, and it would be risky. It was too quiet for most things, but she needed a way to answer. She used her finger on the unclean floor (bleh!) to write a word, then moved to the cubicles to get a roll of toilet paper. She rolled it so it would hit her foot, knowing the girl would turn around. In the middle of the floor, written into the dirt in the center of the room. Exactly where Nadeshiko had stood when she first called out for Hanako.
YES

What was that bumping against her foot... Nadeshiko sllloowwwllyyy turned to look down... at the roll of toilet paper that hadn't been there before. Then.. so close to it was that word. Right where she had stood mere moments before.
Sweat started to leak down her brow as she stepped closer to the spot and reached into her pocket. A small trinket was pulled out, clutched in one hand as she held it towards the mirrors.
"Otaku-san, I know you're probably busy up there in Tengoku... but you've helped my family in the past... Can you please come and help Hanako pass over to the other side? Otherwise I'm pretty sure I'll be joining you rather soon and uhh... yeah."

Nomen smirked. She had an idea at this point. She took out one of her very small stones that she kept in her pocket, and angled a throw perfectly away from Nadeshiko at the mirror. So as Nadeshiko asked her ancestor to help the ghost cross over...a mirror seemed to smash. Maybe the ghost was angry? In the dark, it would be hard to notice any stones flying away with all the shattered glass flying around. D2 night - throwing 'stones' at an angle for them to fly away.

Nadeshiko jumped back and pressed herself tightly to the back wall of the bathroom. She froze solid as the glass rained down around her, making a huge mess on the floor that reflected the light from her flashlight a dozen different ways.
"Okay, Okay, Okay. No need to get violent... I can understand how angry you must be... So.. I will help you. Simply tell me what I need to do. What you need me to do to help you."

Nomen considered how to do it now. The girl had resigned herself to her 'fate', but the mirrors were now a problem. She had the whole room watched. So, one thing left to do; the finish!
She moved quietly, closer and closer to the girl, before suddenly in her scariest voice...
"BY EATING YOUR SOUL!"
And she pounced on the girl!

Nadeshiko SCREAMED LOUDLY, a high pitched sound that echoed off the bathroom walls and most definitely down the hallway. The horiuchi flailed around for a few long moments, dropping her flashlight to the ground where it rolled to the side to shine a beam on the wall.
Nadeshiko fell then, falling onto a few glass shards that her uniform managed to absorb. The fall knocked her hat off and her wig, revealing the long black hair underneath. She works to push the ghost off her.. pausing for just a moment as she actually touched something.
Wait, ghosts aren't physical... they aren't soft and squishy in certain parts... It took the terrified girl a few long moments to finally realize she was being tormented by a real person.
Despite not being able to see the person tormenting her in the dark Nadeshiko was still able to fish a blue slap bracelet from one of her uniform. The struggle intensified for just a moment before she was able to slap it firmly around Nomen's wrist, the tip hurting as it hit skin and sealed off.
This was no ordinary bracelet however and as it sealed around Nomen's wrist the Kami got to work. Nomen could instantly feel her body start to weigh down as the earth within her body started to stagnate. Her limbs no longer moved as well as she'd like, feeling like they were forcing their way through quicksand. Nadeshiko used the distraction and inability to move to pull herself out from under Nomen and scramble for her flashlight.
"I'm going to kill you and you'll really be a ghost in the bathroom! That was not cool!"

Now that was cheating! Nomen winced, hating magic. She couldn't move properly, she couldn't reach for the girl, so she just kind of...rolled back on top of her.
"It was a bit of fun" she managed to say with a laugh.

Nadeshiko managed to grab her flashlight somehow, flailing the beam around to flash over Nomen's face and directly in her eye for a moment... then she brought it back to focus slightly to the side so she can get a proper look at Nomen's face.
Nade-chan muttered under her breath as she recognized the girl from her earlier class, sighing deeply under her breath at just how badly she had fallen for the girls prank on her.
"I'm still going to kill you Bayushi-san... probably just slower now that I know it's you." she sighs again before giggling slightly, not moving to push the weighed down girl on top of her for the movement.
"You were pretty good at the ghost thing though... Totally had me fooled. Pft, some detective I am."

Nomen had to blink a few times, the red dots from the flashlight not being very enjoyable. "Your secrets safe with me" she replied, wiping her eye and sitting up after a moment to free the girl, chuckling. "I heard something about a detective, that's you? Huh, to think I'd run into you by chance, how lucky I am."
She'd rather crushed the girl, so throwing a compliment her way by making her sound well known would help, right?
