OH MY FREAKING GOD I AM SO SORRY YOU GUYS
I teased this story a long while ago and one of my readers (Pumkin12) has been constantly reminding me about how I haven't started yet and I sincerely apologize, so with that
HERE YOU ARE, MY PATIENT FRIEND, YOU!
Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GHOST HUNT. ALSO
I apologize beforehand for the confusing way this may be worded at times. After the two switch bodies, the names of them will still be the same but the bodies will be different (i.e. If I write something about Naru, it will be Mai's body doing the action/speaking, and if I write about Mai, it will be Naru's body doing the action/speaking).
Chapter 1: So This is How it Begins
It was a long day at the office for Naru. Lin had been working with Madoka today (unfortunately) and the woman wouldn't quit badgering him about the stupidest things. "Why don't you have a girlfriend yet - Mai seems nice for you!""You're so much like Martin, you know that?" "Lin's been telling me all about you, Noll, and-" "You should get a puppy, I love puppies, and-"
Can you please leave me alone, woman?
He tapped his pen on the paper of the black book on the table, frustrated. How long this day was going to drag out, he didn't know, nor was he any excited to find out.
It was almost 2:00 in the afternoon and Mai was late, again. Hopefully she hadn't forgotten that Naru needed his hourly tea fix and had not gotten it yet.
A sudden rush of noises outside the door. What the hell is that? Naru could distinctly make out rushed footsteps and it sounded like something heavy fell over outside, then another thing, and another.
He strode over to the door and flung it open. "What is going o-"
CRASH!
Mai had been running up the stairs with school books in her hands, and she was dropping them one by one outside the door as she had been running up. She knew that she was late, and so tried to make up for lost time, but ended up pissing off her boss in a different way, ironically.
"Sorry, Naru, I was just trying to get here faster and..." Mai rubbed her head as she sat on the tatami mat on the floor, being pushed back from the collision with Naru. "Wait a minute... why am I sitting on the tatami anyway? I was just outside and then-"
She looked up, horrified and entranced by what sat in front of her.
Herself.
"WHAT?!" It took her a moment to process, but it also explained why her voice was deeper (and sexier) than normal.
Naru sat up from his place on the concrete. Mai saw her own very angry gaze staring at her from just outside the open door.
"Mai." The now-shrill-voiced "man" spoke coolly.
"...Yes?"
"What in God's name did you do this time?"
"I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" Mai's hands shot up into the air.
"If you didn't do anything, please give me a logical explanation as to why I am wearing a schoolgirl uniform and sitting outside when I was just in the office a minute ago." Naru spat, balling up a part of the ruffly, navy-blue skirt in his hands.
"But I didn't - I couldn't have-" Mai sighed, bending double in defeat. She raised her head up a little bit and rested her gaze on Naru's now very feminine form. "This suit it pretty comfy though, I gotta admit."
"...Does every skirt feel this nice..?"
"Yes, Naru. Yes they do."
"Alright. So now that you're me and I'm you," Mai started, "we'll have to be careful not to call eachother by our real names." She explained, deep blue hair falling over her face.
Naru sighed. "So tell me - we're not going to let anyone in on this until it's solved, right?" Brown eyes narrowed, head tilted. "We'll have to converse and interact with people in the same way that the other always does?"
"Yep!"
"Great. I never once in my life thought that I'd have to purposefully act like an idiot." Naru smirked.
"Shut it, boss." Mai frowned.
Madoka entered the room again after spending some time in Lin's office while the man worked to see the young man and woman standing side-by-side. "Good afternoon, you two! How's my precious Mai doing-"
"Fine, Madoka. Perfectly fine."
She cocked her head a little bit at the seemingly odd response from the normally cheery girl. Oh well. "And Noll, how's your work coming along?"
"Great. I just have to sort out a few details and then I'll be done."
"Oh? But I thought you still had a few days' work cut out still."
Mai's eyes widened just a bit. She elbowed Naru to urge him to say something.
"Oh - I helped him. He did a lot of the work though 'cause I didn't pay any attention before whenever he told me about it." He looked up into those indigo eyes that were now glowing with slight anger.
"Well that's fine then. I'll be in here with Lin if you need me." She pointed over at the office she literally just left. "Bye!" She exited the room.
The door shut and Mai waited for a few moments before wheeling slowly towards Naru and bending down a bit to meet him at eye-level.
"Mind telling me what that was about?"
"What?" He questioned innocently, which kinda fit because he had the voice, air and appearance of a schoolgirl.
"You seriously just insulted me like it was nothing and expect me to take it lightly?"
"Yes, I do. And - by the way - I've never realized just how powerful my voice is when I demand for things. That'll come in handy sometime." He smirked.
Mai let out a long sigh. "Fine. Be that way. But don't come crying to me when you have to answer something about me that you don't know."
"I wouldn't bet on that."
"I would. ¥1000 says you can't survive in my body for five hours." Mai spoke coolly.
"Fine. And what if I can?"
"...I'll make you tea every half-hour for the rest of the day."
Naru's eyes widened, brows furrowing, mouth open a bit.
"I think you have yourself a bet."
WHAT THE HELL ME
WHY DIDN'T I PUT AN AUTHOR'S NOTE AT THE END OF THIS WHEN I UPLOADED IT WTF
Anyway, my personal rage subsided, I hope you enjoyed this chapter aaaaaaand I'll see you in the next one!
