A/N: I don't own Ghost Hunt.

A is for ambush:

The darkness was heavy, thick, and was pressing down on Bou-san and Yasuhara as they silently moved forwards. They could just make out the glint of water ahead and smoke rose in curls to the side of them.

"Are there any left?" Asked Bou-san wearily, treading carefully on the ruined ground.

"I… don't think so… wait, what was that up there?" Bou-san's gaze drifted to where Yasuhara gestured. Something up ahead moved.

"I don't know… I can't really see. Do you reckon we should go and check it out?"

"No. If we do that, both of us could be killed. We need to lure him out."

"Good plan."

"Send something over there, and that will bring him closer." Bou-san did so, and as promised the shape darted towards them.

"Get ready..." muttered Bou-san. Yasuhara's heart started to pound and adrenilation coursed through his veins. The shape burst through the darkness and Bou-san and Yasuhara unleashed their weapons.

"Yasu! You go forward! I've got your back." Bou-san grunted in frustration as his weapon ran out of ammunition. He threw it to the ground and got out another one. Yasuhara had darted around the enemy and was about to go on when he turned around and got the person from behind.

"Thanks."

"No problem. C'mon, what we need is just up there." He gestured to a building that was badly damaged and they both walked towards it, lapsing into silence again. They walked up the stone steps, and were nearly there when they heard the crack of gunfire once more.

"No! An ambush!" Cried Yasuhara. They both gripped their weapons and began firing at the enemy. In the intensity and confusion of the battle, neither person noticed a small brunette girl dodge past them- not, that is, until the TV screen went black.

"NO!" They both cried in exasperation. Mai stood in front of them, her hands on her hips and a very Ayako-like glare on her face.

"Jou-chan," whined Bou-san. "How could you? We were nearly at the end of that level! Now we'll have to start all over again."

"Bou-san, that television is not here for your entertainment. And if you make too much noise, then I'M the one that Naru is going to get mad at. So you had to be stopped."

"But how did you manage it without us noticing you?" Inquired Yasuhara.

"You were so absorbed in your game it was easy. Call it an ambush. Now, I need to get some work done before Naru realises that I'm 'wasting time', as he so eloquently puts it."

"No need, Mai. I already know." Mai jumped and turned to find Naru standing at the door to his office.

"H… how did you do that?"

"Call it an ambush."

Sorry it's short. But, you know, it is a prompt and all…

Okay, so I know that there are a few of these in the Ghost Hunt fandom, and I love them. This is being written in conjunction with a Naruto version: same chapter titles, but in the Naruto fandom. They will be updated at the same time but you aren't compelled to read both of them. However, if you do want to read them (and hopefully review) go ahead…

Please Review!
