Disclaimer: I do not own Ghost Hunt
I woke up screaming. "Man, I hate that nightmare." This particular nightmare has occurred since Naru left. It was about Gene, and his death. I haven't told anyone about it. I looked at my clock, 8:45. "I'm going to be late!" Thank goodness I packed last night. I rushed out of my apartment with my suitcase, hoping I didn't forget anything and ran for the train.
"You're late." Naru said as I walked into the door. I hoped I didn't show any signs of my nightmare. "Hurry up and give your bag to Lin, we have to leave."
"Okay, okay, sorry I was late."
"I would have figured you would have matured enough to be able to get to work on time now Mai. Now get in the van, I don't have time to deal with your mood right now."
My mood? More like your mood. I sighed as I got into the van. It was going to be a long ride.
Five hours later when we got to the old wooden jail Naru woke me. I fell asleep on his arm.
"Mai, didn't you sleep well last night?"
"What? I'm fine Naru!"
"Then you shouldn't have been sleeping on the way up."
"Sorry that you guys are so boring in the car!" I said while blushing furiously.
I went to go help unload the van.
"Careful Mai, There is a-" CRASH. "Step there… " Lin said
"Idiot."
"I heard that narcissist!"
After carrying all that equipment into the place Naru finally gave me a case file.
"Review this case file, the rest of the group will be here in a few hours, and do be careful Mai."
"A few hours? Then why are we here so early?"
"To set up, and tea Mai."
I walked off to the kitchen in a huff.
I got out the teakettle and started to boil water when I heard something crawling.
"What was that?" I asked to the empty room. I hear more crawling noises as the teacups I set out earlier start to shake. "Naru?... NARU!" I yelled right before I was knocked unconscious by a frying pan.
Naru POV
I was wondering where Mai was when I started to hear something, but I couldn't make it out.
"Naru? … NARU!" I heard from the kitchen. I felt like I couldn't run fast enough.
When I got there Mai was unconscious on the floor. I knelt down next to her and checked for injuries, she had a nasty bump on her head but that appeared to be all.
"Lin, can you get an ice pack for her? She shouldn't need to go to the hospital." 'Yet. Oh Mai why must you be a magnet for danger.' I thought as I carried her up to my room.
"Gene?" she mumbled into my chest.
'She must be with him' I put her on my bed; placing the ice pack Lin gave me on her bump. At least she will get information out of him, I hope.
Mai POV
I was with "Gene?" Why was Gene here?
"Hello Mai, how have you been these past two years?"
"I haven't seen you or anyone! I thought you moved on."
"No, I haven't, there are a few things I need to see before I leave." He smiled and hugged me. "I need to show you this case will be very dangerous though Mai."
Gene showed me though a doorway and I became a different person.
"Nori has been placed in a holding cell for the time being." Said a man
"He needs to be held for longer than 30 days! He tried to kill me and… and rape my wife." Said a different man
"This is normal procedure, he has to wait until trial until he can be placed in a permanent cell."
"Well you better hurry up."
I felt the urge to go and see this Nori.
"You sick bastard, I hope you stay in here, since you have to pay for your own food and I heard you have no money." I said, or rather she said.
"You were so pretty in terror, the beauty underneath shone though that lovely night."
I unlocked the holding cell, stepping inside when the door slammed shut.
"So terrified, so beautiful, my star shinning though the moonless night…" He grabbed my hair and pulled me to him. "I love you."
'Gene? Naru? Get me out of here!' He began to take my clothes off. "No! Stop i-" Nori covered my mouth blocking the screams. He started to choke me, his strong hands wrapping around my small throat. I died.
Yet, I still stayed in the body, the dream wasn't over yet.
"Hoshi? It's time to lea- Hoshi!" The second man came running. "Hoshi! You- Nori, you killed her! She is in your cell dead!" The man yelled.
"I'm right here." Hoshi tried to say.
Time had passed and Nori died of starvation due to no money.
"Nori, why are you here?"
"I never got my prize."
I shot up out of bed in a cold sweat, knocking into Naru's head. "Ow, why were you leaning down over me?"
"You have a bump on your head."
"Oh."
"What happened?"
I started to cry into Naru's chest.
