It's been 5 years since Oliver Davis left japan. He though that everyone would forget about him and go back their everyday life. Little did he know that one person would follow him to England and make him see reason one way or another.
I do not own Ghost Hunt, though I wish I did. I do however claim copy rights to the song used. Please review and tell me what you think. (^-^)
*Tap...Tap...Tap...Tap...sigh..Tap..* A young man silently sat at a large oak desk. His shaggy black hair hung around his face as he read through case after case. His long fingers tapped on the desk as his annoyance grew. 'Is it to hard to as for a interesting case!' Finally fed up he pushed the papers away. 'it's been 5 years and no matter what I do I cant find a decent case. Gene can you hear me! I bet your laughing your ass off watching me waste away in this god forsaken office' I stood up and walked over to a book shelf that sat by a window. along with books it held a shelf with just pictures on it. He looked at them one by one until he came across the one he wished to see. In it was a group of 7 people including himself, if you looked closely you would see his eyes on the small brown hair girl and he smiled some in the photo.
"Lin, is there anything going in the city? Anything big?" He called out knowing the tall stoic man would hear him next door. As if on que he heard foot steps entering his office. He looked over at lin. He swore the man never ages.
"As a matter of fact there is a concert going on tomorrow. Monk emailed me last week saying the group would be in town." He said it so nonchalant that Oliver wouldn't have caught the last part.
"All of them?" He asked turing away from lin, he prayed that no hope he had showed through his eyes. He admitted long ago that he was in love with Mai. However she was in love with his brother.
"As far as I know, yes, all of them." Lin did not miss the flash in olivers eyes. He had always known that the two were in love with each other, It was oliver's Stupidity that kept the pair apart.
"Send monk a email. Tell him that we are also going and that if they wish they can stay at my home while in england." 'If I can see Mai just once more maybe, just maybe, I would be willing let Mai pretend that I'm Gene.'
"Yes." Lin said as he walked back to his office. He shut the door behind him and walked to his desk. once there he opened a drawer and pulled out 2 tickets smiling. On the ticket it read the band name 'Hornigai Ocha' (bittersweet tea). Smirking he sent Monk an email regarding where they would be staying. They were staying at his home but this just made it all the better.
The place was crowded and loud. Oliver almost regretted coming. He could feel as well as see the looks that poeple threw his way, they ranged from interest to mild jealousy.
"Naru! Lin! over hear!" the voice was a blessing to his ears. He figured if they found one member of the old spr they should find them all. After a few more mintues of following lin through the masses of bodies they found the small group. There stood Yasuhara looking the same as ever. John Brown who had seemed to grow to almost 6 feet and looked more like an adult, the only thing that remained the same was the youthful and understanding eyes as well as the shy smile. Next to him was Makako, no longer was she dressed in the formal kimono with short hair. Now her hair was down to her waist and she wore jeans and a band t-shirt as well as a smile. Her arm circled around john. The only remaining person was a very pregnant Aykao. They all greeted one another and said how it had been way to long.
"Where is monk and Mai?" He asked as he kept his face void of emotion. truly he was disappointed.
"Oh, do you worry Naru. You'll see them any moment now." Yasuhara said cheerfuly as he patted Oliver on the back once.
"Oh, then-" Oliver was going to ask what was keeping them as someone suddenly announced that the concert was starting as the opening band was coming on stage.
"For your pleasure all the way from Japan Hornigai Och!"
Turning to look on the stage he found 4 people. There on the right conter was the bass player who looked vaguely similar, but the same could be said for the drummer. Both girls we so fimailar that he was like a flag being waved in front of his face. To his great surprised he saw monk with his guitar on the left of the singer. The singer made him stop dead and his jaw to drop a small amount. 'There is no way that is Mai.. She like a muse up there'.
There she stood on the stage in a bright neon green plaid skirt, a black shirt with the band name on it, purple high top DC with neon green. Her hair had grown out to her waist as well and the once round faced girl was a exotic looking with her soft yet sharp features, her eyes were wild and free, and her lips were smirking. Her eyes locked onto his as the smirk grew. "alright Ladies and gents this is a brand new song we are hittimg you with. An no, this wont be for sell so please enjoy.."
She closed her eyes and looked at Monk to signal for him to start.
slowly the song started the first few notes were soft yet painful
"Please take it all,
Cuz now I'm here with barely nothing,
You have taken almost all,
All I ever had to offer,
You've taken it all.
My dreams are nightmares,
As I dream of you,
My dreams are nightmares,
Because they are real,
Your gone,
and with you,
is almost all I ever had to give,
cuz now I'm standing here,
only thing left,
is my voice to hear,
Your all I needed,
yet you didnt need me,
So why did you take,
Almost all of me
now here I stand in front of you,
you might as well take,
whats left of me,
you egoistic bastard,
you left me,
your crossed a sea,
your a sea from me,
please take it all,
cuz now i am here with barely nothing,
you've taken it almost all,
all I ever had to offer,
you've taken it all,
So... please...open your eyes..
please see... It was you that took it all..
because
I NEVER LOVED ANYONE BUT YOU!
You...you egoistic bastard,
you've taken almost all of me,
the only thing left,
is this voice to here."
A few tears leaked from her eyes as she sang. Truly she was beautiful as she was up there singing her heart away. the crowd had pulled out phones and lighters and held them in the air. They shed tears with their beloved singer.
"Alright guys now a few covers you know us so well for.. here is Taylor swifts
You're on the phone with your girlfriend
She's upset
She's going off about something that you said
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
I'm in my room
It's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do'
But she wears short skirts
I wear T-shirts
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up
And find that what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you can see I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
You belong with me
Walkin' the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say your fine
I know you better then that
Hey what you doing with a girl like that
She wears high heels
I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up
And find that what what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you can see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know
Baby, you belong with me
You belong with me
Oh, I remember you drivin' to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're about to cry
And I know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong
I think I know it's with me
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time
How could you not know
Baby you belong with me
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me"
The crowd sang with her as he danced around singing. Her hips swayed with each note that came out of her mouth. it was breath taking. After the song was over they went to the back for a 5 minute break and to change out clothing and to do make up.
looking behind him at the group he noticed masako missing. Yasuhara caught his graze and mouth 'Just wait'. The crowd went wild as the band came back on the stage, this time monk was replaced by Masako. All the girls were in different colored tutus, matching corsets, Black fishnets, and what looked to be black riding boots. they all wore make up similar to the American band Black Viel Brides that Gene once loved. If he though Mai looked exotic before, then now she was just something otherworldly.
"We present Fit for Rivals - Reasons" Mai smirked a had a look in her eyes that almost said 'I dare you' to anyone.
"Prove to me you're just like them so I know I'm right again
You've changed throughout the years, but yet I remained here
It's such a shame to see you go, it's for the best I know
Whoa, what's your problem?
Things can't get any worse (can't get any worse)
Nothing you can coerce
Nothing you can do
Now except your fate
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
And when you try to come back and say you're sorry again
We'll turn our backs and forget that you ever came
So here's our farewell the pressure is all off of us now
Whoa, what's your problem?
Things can't get any worse (can't get any worse)
Nothing you can coerce
Nothing you can do
Now except your fate
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again
Give me, give me one good reason
To believe in you again, in you again"
The people around Oliver went wild. It seemed this was the Mai they all knew and love. This exotic vixen that was once a mouse of a girl. Now she was a strong women that dared anyone to challenge her. She had pride in her voice. The only thing oliver could do was stare at where she once was on stage.
"Hey come on, she want to talk to you." looking at the voice to his right he realized that monk had come to get him.
"what do I even say to her?" he asked the older man as he followed him.
Monk shrugged. "No clue, but I'd start with I'm sorry."
Oliver sighed 'how am I going to get through this'.
"Like you always do you tea fiend." A voice said from in front of him. He hadn't even realized that he was now in front of her dressing room.
Please review if you want to know how this ends
