"Alright, lets go." Shouei groaned.
As they went into the city, they visited the graveyard. Many of the tombstones had a mixture of Shinto and Buddhist styles, but all had offerings on them; wheter it be food, flowers, or toys for children.
"Sensei, do ghosts really need all this stuff?"
"WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT GHOSTS EARLIER?!"

"Whoa, why are you getting so bent out of shaped?" Kaido asked with a smirk, "Is it because you might actually think this ghost stuff is real?" He glanced over at Dawn and winked.
She giggled, catching his gesture, and added, "Ooh, I think that must be it."

"Look, there are NO such things as ghosts; thats that." Shouei continued along.
R.E.F.U. followed along, and as he did, he thought he saw something move about in the distance.

Dawn noticed the same thing moving, freezing in her stance. She began to nervously point to headstone in the distance, chattering, "G-g-g-ghost!!! Maybe!!!! Let's get out of here!" She spun around and jolted towards the graveyard's gate, before being pulled by the collar by Kaido, who replied, "Don't be so hasty...it could be anything...we've been running into a lot of people lately that aren't who they appear to be..."

"Well, lets just go then." Shouei sighed before realizing R.E.F.U. had run off. "Oh for the love of-- he must've gone off following whatever that was."

"Oh know! He might get eaten by the ghost!!!!! Or whatever, ghosts do..." Dawn frightfully shouted, ducking behind Kaido, "Oh Refu..."
Kaido looked behind him at the naive girl and smiled, replying, "I'm sure he's okay. Let's just find him." He turned to Shouei and nodded his head.

R.E.F.U. continued to follow the strange figure until he came to an old shrine. There, a woman with long flowing hair and robes appeared in front of him.
"Its so good to see you again... my love."

OOC: o.o...
"I think he went over there-- no wait, it was that way! Or...maybe past that gate..." Dawn frantically stated, turning her head in every direction to look for R.E.F.U.

OOC: I'm basing this off Japanese ghost lore.
The woman came up and hugged R.E.F.U. The green haired boy blushed in flatterment and in confusion; he never even MET this woman... however, she was pretty, so he hugged her back, not realizing that her form was taking a more gruesome turn with long nails, sharp teeth, big horns, and piercing golden eyes.

OOC: Okay.
Shouei was getting frustrated with R.E.F.U. always running away. He finally found R.E.F.U., but he was in the arms of some stranger.
"Hey you!"
The long haired woman turning around showing her monsterousform and snarled at the doctor, who now cringed in fear as it lept out at him.
Realizing what was happening, R.E.F.U. gasped and grabbed the demon before she could tear Shouei apart.

Kaido saw the scene play out and gasped at the sight of what seemed to be some kind of monster. He formed a ball of energy in his hand and released it at the creature, causing it to be repelled backwards into one of the many large headstones.

The demon woman got up from the rubble, looked over at R.E.F.U. and growled. "So, I gave you my love and effection and this is your response?"
"Wait, I think I know what to do." R.E.F.U. ran forth to the demon.
Shouei shouted to the boy, "R.E.F.U., DON'T DO ANYTHING STUPID!"
The demon was ready to sink its teeth into R.E.F.U.'s flesh, but before she could, R.E.F.U. grasped onto her with great, whispering into her ear, "I love you.", and kissing her passionately.
The demon's gruesome fascade began to melt away into the beautiful woman, who was now in tears and kissing back. After a while, her ghost disapeared and dispearsed into a thousand morning glories.
"I DID IT!" R.E.F.U. cheered with joy while everyone else looked in shock and confusion.

Kaido lowered his arms and tilted his head to the side, stuttering, "W-what just...was that....did he....did it....?" Dawn's eyes widening and she soon fell backwards on to the ground. Kaido snapped around and leaned down to her, shaking her head with no response. "She's out cold," he stated, frowning, "She should be fine though...what....was that?"

"That princess ghost was in love with a man who was a soldier. One day, the man was off to battle, but she begged him not to go. Regardless, he went and the princess waited for his return, but he never came back and she died with a broken and angry heart. Until now, she use to seduct men, transform into a hanya (lady demon), and kill them to exact her revenge on the man who left her. I figured all she needed was love and affection, so I gave it to her."
Shouei cocked his eyebrow. "And WHERE did you hear this story?"
"I read it on the tourist plaque right over there while she was trying to make out with me." R.E.F.U. pointed to the plaque.

OOC: lmao xDD I love this! x]
Kaido lightly smacked himself in the forehead, his face turning red with both embarrassment and disbelief, and he replied, "Well...that's an interesting story...I'm having a hard time believing all of this, but interesting all the same..." He cradled Dawn's head, as she remained unconscious for the moment.

Shouei looked over at Dawn. "Well, since she's the most critically wounded, I say we should get her some help. It'd be too dangerous for us to go to a hospital, so I think the safest thing for us is to go to a local medicine man."
"You mean like that?" R.E.F.U. pointed to a little thatched cottage up on a hill with a pestel and mortar near the door of the building.
"Good work, boy." The scientist said patting R.E.F.U. on the head as if he were a dog.

"Well, I think she just fainted during the excitement," Kaido said, looking at Dawn with concern, "But I guess going to see whoever is there couldn't hurt." He placed his arm under the bend in her legs, with the other are under her upper back, lifting her up off the ground. He began to trek forward, carrying her in his arms.

So the gang went over to the old hut. Shouei called out and an old man came out.
"What do you want?" the old man spoke in a stingy atitude that clearly out matched Shouei's.
"Sorry to disturb your privacy, but we have someone here who could use some help."
"Have you tried the hospital, its much more convienient."
"When I said she needed your help, I meant she needed YOUR help. Now please help us, or we'll never leave you alone and keep complaining."
The old man knew that these people were stubborn, so he open the door to let them in.

Kaido nervously charged through, Dawn still in his arms, unsure if this was a good idea. From battle wounds to common colds, Kaido's energy powers could heal, but even he could not preform awakenings; whether from death or mere sleep, it proved to be impossible. He noticed a mat on the wooden floor, and quickly placed Dawn's unconscious body down on it. He soon realized how rude he was being and turned around to face the proprietor and said, "We apologize for any inconvenience."
