Hello everyone if you are just reading this story I have started to essentially rewrite this whole story. I realized after writing the last chapter and going back that I failed spectacularly when I first started writing this story. I am honestly surprised with the amount of views, follows, favorites and reviews I have received for this story. There are a lot of missed spelled words and grammar errors and holes in the story that I neglected to fill. So, I am going back and editing and adding in things, taking out lines here and there. Hopefully, it will make more sense and be a thousands times better. I hope you enjoy the story even more with all the changes. I hate to leave a long authors note. Oh also some names are being changed to if you continue to read the names are different in other chapters. Never fear in time they will change as I get to those chapters. Anyways ON WITH THE STORY:


Run Mai and don't look back! Just keep running!

"But sister what about you?"

I'll be fine Mai- I'll catch up with you. Find Mother and hide with her!"

I did as sister asked, for she was strong and I knew there was nothing I could do. An hour later, my sister did return but she looked different somehow...

"Mai come here".

"Yes sister? What is it?"

If I continue to stay here with you, those creatures that attacked us today will never cease attacking you. Forgive me Mai… Goodbye."

"No sister, please don't leave- you promised you would teach me how to train my power -you promised!"

My sister simply smiled at me, then placed her lips to my forehead and whispered a few words. "The day will come, Mai, when you will have people to protect and your power will come to you. Until that day, I will not return." Goodbye my precious baby sister, sleep well and forget me until your 17th birthday.

Beep beep beep.
Ahh! That nightmare again! I'd been having it for the past 3 months, but it had been growing more realistic and intense as my 17th birthday approached. *Sigh*

What time is it? 9: 30! Naru's going to be so upset! I'm late already' I thought as I quickly dressed and grabbed some breakfast I ran out the door. I made it to the door of SPR in 10mins lucky I live so close. Walking in quietly as possible, I froze as l heard the voice I both dreaded and loved.

"You're late Mai. Make me my tea".

"Hai Naru." I quickly walked over to the kitchen area and started my daily ritual of making The Jerk his tea. When the kettle whistled, I poured three cups and put them on a tray. But as I was walking out, I tripped; from there, everything was slow motion. I saw the tea cups fly into the air with the tray. Thankfully, at that moment, my body just reacted on its own. I jumped up, caught the tray and not one of the tea cups fell off as I landed right back on my feet. I stood there for a minute or two wondering what the hell just happened. Then I remembered Naru and his tea. I hurried to give Lin his first, then The Narcissist. I walked over to Naru's door knocked and waited for the ok to come in.

"Come in Mai. Don't stand out there like an idiot." Ugh- that jerk! I pushed the door open quickly and set the tea down and waited.

"What are you waiting for Mai?" Naru asked.

"A thank you would be nice."

"I pay you to bring me tea Mai and to do your job, not to stand around. Get back to work."

I spun around on my heel muttering jerk under my breath and slammed the door shut. Walking over to my desk, I started to feel just slightly upset. No, you know I wasn't upset-I was pissed.

I have been in love with Naru the idiotic freak for about two years now. I guess it's also my own damn fault that I haven't confessed my feelings. While I was going through the files of our last cases I heard the phone ring in Naru's office. A few minutes later he came out.

"Mai, call everyone. We have a case."

"Got it Naru." As I picked up the phone I noticed the date on the calendar,my birthday is in two days. Looks like I will be spending it during a case.


That is the first new and improved chapter. Not a lot changed but the changed I did make I feel changed the way this chapter was being read. I will not write an Authors Note on every chapter I will simply put a Bold Edited at the top to indicate chapters that have been changed. Review Please, ~Alex~
