TKH: Well here it is my new ghost hunt story, honestly all the credit has to go to Noble Broken Beauty Dr. Wicked's Writing Lab. I'm not the best at grammar/spelling but I tried my best :D remember to review dears readers.
Disclaimer: I do not own ghost hunt, sadly.
And so it begins.
It's a dark twisted melody. That circles around your brain like thousands of swarming bees, the constant buzzing of sound, annoying and unable to be ignored. There's also the occasional sting, the moment where everything stops, the buzzing, the song, and only pain erupts. The pain follows the melody, but the song is not what draws people to the unknown pain.
It's the honey.
The good times before the bad, and the extreme bliss comes before the sad
And in some cases, if you're well protected, you can get the honey with out being harmed.
For all that its worth, I didn't know a thing. I honestly was confused about the entire situation. Until the closing of the case, I didn't know.
If I did, I know I would've helped him.
Chapter 1.
The streets of New York City weren't exactly sparkling clean. The block was filled with mixtures of people as New York was one of the melting pots of the world. There were homeless people on the streets leaning against chain-link fences of parking lots, and the graffiti painted walls. But out of all that the pathway to the building where I worked was absolutely spotless, there was not a piece of dirt in sight. The two glass doors were polished and ready to be opened.
My name is Mai, try not to confuse it with the month May, a lot of people do. But for this opening my name conveniently introduces a part of the setting because today is the 5th of May.
I'm also twenty two years old, and thankfully, I'm employed.
Well maybe that isn't completely thankful.
I pushed the doors open and a surge of warm air woke me up from the cold outside. The single floral scent was a change from the smells of restaurants and cafes opening on the street.
Then He came towards me, and to my severe disappointment my heart sped up.
My boss's name is Kazuya Shibuya, but he's more commonly known as Naru, as in narcissist.
He's not a bad guy, really he's not, but most people keep their distance from him. You think people would be drawn to him like moths, but I think it's just because their shy.
My boss is gorgeous.
He is recognized for his looks, but also because of his job.
He's a lawyer, and he is known for taking any case. No matter how bad. And every case he does…He wins. And that scares a lot of people, but charms a lot too.
I passed the receptionist who shot me a dirty look, and looked through the window of our office department. The room was empty as always except for him, who behind the desk with something spread across the table, and for an instant I noticed that Naru looked...frazzled. His hair was a little messed up and his complexion was paler than usual.
I opened the door, and in a whirl wind of papers, everything he was working on was packed up.
I smiled almost a little too forcefully.
"Good morning Naru."
He didn't respond.
"How are you?"
"Fine."
This was life. Usual life at least. Our place was simple, not as fancy as people may expect it to be, seeing how much money he makes. There was a desk for him, a desk for me, and a desk for a man named Lin. He was never there, I assumed that Naru was the one working at the base, and Lin in the field. I haven't met him, and you think I would have by now, but no.
It was quieter than usual today.
And if you hadn't anticipated it already this is where the day starts to turn for the weird.
It started around noon. You can see the sun outside the window now, just barely, it's peeking over the edges of the roof tops. The office has the best view, it's gorgeous, and as Naru worked I'd do whatever he told me, and look out it.
Then at Naru's usual tea-time, people started coming in. Naru usually had meetings around this time. But I was always informed ahead of time. Always.
I was shoved out of the room by several men with big brief cases, with black leather and gold locks.
Do you see where I'm getting too?
And that brings us to right now.
I'm currently sitting on the dark red carpet kicked out from my own office. I couldn't help it. I can't suppress the urge any longer. I pressed my ear against the door. And eavesdropped.
There was a burly voice talking, you could tell it belonged to a strong man, there was no question about it. It was deep, rough, and self-confident. But the problem was, it sounded angry.
"Why won't you take the case?!"
Another man spoke this time, "Your the best in this city Mr. Shibuya, maybe even in this state, we would really appreciate it if you could defend our client."
There was a long pause, and finally Naru spoke.
"No. I told you, I'm not going to."
"But why?!"
"Mr. Shibuya, you're known for taking the most difficult dishonorable cases ever, and you win every one."
"Do you understand what we are offering you; our client will offer you more money, if that's what you want."
"I said no."
"But, why?"
It was Naru's turn to speak again, "When you-"
I didn't hear the rest, as I noticed as I was being stared at in a viscous way by women in an all black suit who was heading towards me. She grabbed my arm and hauled me up.
And burst into the door.
"What is this?!"
She shook my arm, and flung me into the room.
"Mr. Shibuya I thought you said this was a private meeting! Why do you have someone listening outside? This is highly confidently."
Effortlessly Naru went into what I call his lawyer character, in which everything he says sounds so genuine, that he could pass off saying that he was an elephant with purple spots, and a pink tail.
He slid up to the women, a simple smile on his face.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Hamada This is my assistant, Mai Taniyama, she is a little late in joining us."
"Mr. Shibuya! This is private we wished to only talk to you! Not you're assistant also!"
He pulled me towards him.
"You see, my assistant is a very vital part of this case, she is now as much a part of this case as you and I are."
"We did not talk about this before! You know how secretive this is!"
He pulled me a little closer.
"I'm sorry I may have left this out, but I'm afraid, that if you don't let this little incident go with me and my assistant, I'll have to refuse to take the case."
She sputtered, and then seemed as though she could not find anything to say.
But the man with the raspy voice spoke, and now that I could see him, the description fit him perfectly, he was large and ugly. He had a squished in face, as though his face even had muscles and it was squashing in the rest of his features.
"So that means you take it?"
He sighed and said, "Well under these circumstances I suppose I will."
At that point is where I became completely lost.
Through the entire meeting every word said by them was in whispers, and even though I was supposedly included, I wasn't.
As everyone was leaving, I stood sort of out the way; the big briefcases did not seem very comforting. I rubbed my arm. It hurt. The women had grabbed the inside of my elbow; it felt like it was going to bruise.
She walked out in front of everyone, but stopped to talk to me. Her light hair hung in her face unwrapping from the elaborate bun, and the glasses slipped off her nose slightly, her red lips snaked into a smile.
"Oh I'm sorry I just get lost in the moment, I hope your arm is okay."
I stopped rubbing it.
"Oh thanks I'm fine."
Her smiled darkened it was only there for a split second before it was gone.
"Oh good."
That was it.
And when everyone left, Naru turned to me. His eyes were cold, and his hair seemed displaced but his glare was in full force.
"Do you have any idea what you just did, Mai, do you know who that was, do you know how much danger your in now?"
Yayayayayayayay!
