Disclaimer: I do not own Ghost Hunt, sadly.

Well here's chappie #2. Hope ya'll enjoy.

Thanks so much for the reviews ppl! :D I read each one and put them into consideration. Bon Appetite

Naru glared at the offending double doors. Right when Mai was rolled into the intensive care unit, another doctor came rushing in, saying that he was Mai's doctor. Naru didn't believe it for a minute, how could Mai afford a private doctor at her current wages? It didn't make sense.

It felt like three hours when they had arrived to Naru it did, but actually it's only been about 30 minutes now and he just wanted to burst through those doors and DEMAND to know if Mai was alright. But he couldn't risk it, just in case….. NO he had to stop thinking pessimistically, as hard as it was though.

~With Mai~

"Doctor we're losing her…." A nurse commented her arm length gloves coved in blood to the elbows.

"Damn… we're going to have to replace her heart, it's not budging. We'll lose her at this rate. Go get one of the hearts stored up!" Mai's doctor growled.

"I'll go get one!" An unneeded nurse said as she dashed out of the operating room and past a seething Naru.

~Mai's Dream World~

Wake up Mai, wake up now…. It's not yet your time… Please he needs you… (1)

Echoed a voice in Mai's mind. She was in her dream world, but she was unconscious. She could hear a very concerned, very familiar voice, but no matter how much she willed it she couldn't answer.

Mai, my child… You need to be strong for him…. It's time to wake up now… (2)

Mai tried hard to respond to this voice now, which sounded so familiar too. After a while, Mai gave up on trying being responsive and wondered why her position was so much like she was having surgery…. Wait… SURGERY?

~With the Doctors~

"Doctor its ready" A nurse said coming in with the extra heart. She handed it to a head nurse, who in turn prepped it for insertion into Mai. Mai's doctor gave the go to start. Now he just hoped that fate looked kind upon them that nothing bad happened.

~Back with Naru and Co.~

-30 minutes later-

The doctor came out, and Naru was waiting to see if he was going to walk away or FINALLY deliver some news. Well to Naru's expectations, he asked for Mai's Parents(3), which Bou-san and Ayako automatically got up. No matter how much they couldn't stand each other, they were always categorized as her parents, and Mai saw them as such. They would appear a united force, even if they were in denial of their feelings of each other. Naru glared at them, giving them chill's.

~With Bou-san and Ayako~

"What's the matter, is Mai okay?" Ayako asked out right. The doctor held his hand up to indicate he had something important to say.

"Ms. Taniyama, I have to inform you that your daughter's heart has stopped and we couldn't spare a moment to get consent forms, for that we apologize-" he started

"But is she okay?" this time Bou-san interrupted, getting agitated that they didn't say if Mai was okay.

"-But we are glad to say the heart surgery was a success, she has stabilized and is able to stay that was on her own, right now we are stitching her up. She will have to stay here for a few days for her chest cavity to heal, she will have a long scar on her chest for as long as she lives. She will be ready to see you tomorrow. She will be sedated, and not likely to wake till morning. She needs to rest now" he finished before giving Bou-san forms to sign. "Give this to the front desk before you go. Good-bye and best of luck" he said as he walked away.

Ayako started to silently cry tears of relief. Bou-san put an arm around her as he guided her back to the group. He got her into a chair before Naru asked in a glacier voice "What did he say?"

Bou-san felt chills down his spine, and looked at Naru. "They said she'll live. Also that we could see her tomorrow. They had to replace her heart, she has to stay here a few days and heal, and then she'll have to take it easy for a few weeks. She'll have a scar for as long as she lives. But she's stable." Bou-san said. Naru and Lin were relieved, even though they didn't show it. Masako put a reassuring hand on Ayako, relieved as well. John and Yasuhara smiled in relief. Bou-san was concentrating on the paper work he had to get done, but it was mostly gibberish to him. Ayako saw and took it away. She would fill it out, knowing what to do, being raised with a family of doctors had its perks.

~After Ayako's done with the dreaded paperwork~

"Come on guys, let's go back to get some sleep before we see her, we don't want to make her had unnecessary worry." Ayako said, "Plus I need to drop off this at the front…." She walked away, Yasuhara, John, Bou-san, and Masako followed. Lin looked at Naru.

"You coming?" he asked when everyone was out of earshot. Naru shook his head, indicating he wanted to be here when she woke up. Lin understood. "Well try to get some sleep, I'll go back…." he trailed off, walking away. He was giving Naru 'alone time' with Mai. He would come and check up on him tomorrow. He had a small smile as he walked away. Naru's cheeks were lightly tinged with pink. Lin was thinking about how Naru would torment the staff until he could go into Mai's room when he would be driving back to the cabins.

~With Bou-san and the gang~

Bou-san saw Lin walk up to his car, but he didn't see Naru. "Yo! Where's Naru?" He asked, conveniently the cars were parked next to each other.

"He's staying to keep an eye on things." Lin answered. Bou-san nodded in understanding, but also happy he wasn't part of the staff that would have to deal with a glaring Naru.

Well they drove off, and on all their minds was, 'Will Mai be alright till morning…..?' cuz she had a knack for attracting danger [A/N: Like Bella off of Twilight, except Mai wasn't so defenseless hee hee :} ]

~With Naru~

Yes just as Lin predetermined, Naru had harassed the nurses until they would let him into Mai's room, where he would watch her, to make sure she was safe. When he first got in, he had to control his urge to break something. Mai was attached to a heart monitor, two IV's, one for vitamins and fluids, and the other to get some blood back into her, since she lost so much already. He already had to wait for Mai to not die, now he had to wait until morning to extract answers. He was determined to stay away till then….. 'But a small nap won't hurt too much…' he thought as he nodded off, dozing.

Sorry for leaving it on a cliff hanger but I had reviews last week and midterms this week so I don't have much time as I would like to and will be very busy (and unfortunately stressed ;_;). I won't be able to post except on the weekends. XD So till the next chapter. Will Mai reveal what's wrong with her, and who in the world is her doctor… hmm well you'll just have to wait and see.

Thanks guys for all the reviews, and personally I was going to have her peacefully die, but upon many requests of wanting her to stay alive, I took up on them and went with it. I don't know much about medical procedures and such, so if I messed up on some things, sorry. ."

(1) Well this one is Gene, her guide. Naru's twin for those who did not know, sorry if I gave anything away

(2) This is not Gene, but her mother. No she will not be important nor will she come up in more chapters.

(3) Well in the manga, Mai sees the monk and the miko as her parents, and I wanted to convey that because I could so totally see them adopt Mai as I family, which the monk and the miko would have to confess their feelings for each other and get married before they could adopt together (wink wink ;])
