Mai's POV

Naru and Lin returned after 3 months and during that time my abilities had been goiing haywire. Especially since Gene was no longer there to control them. Luckily I found a way to block them before Naru returned so nothing happened during our last case.

So it was on a typical day that I was racing down the street towards the office that I heard a loud screeching crash fill the area. As suddenly violent screams rend the air speechless and a sharp high pitched endless ringing feels my ears. It is then that I immediately drop my bag and fall to my knees as I clutch my ears while they throb with shooting pains. My whimpers drowned out by the screams surrounding me as my eyes looked frantically around me. And I grew more and more paniced as I could not only see the crushed auspicious state of the bloody wreck but I also noticed as I began to see the varying features of the transparent deceased around me.

It was as I noticed these things that I realized the ringing in my ears was silenced so I pulled my hands away. then as I looked down at my hands and noticed a murky warm crimson red liquid covering the entirety of my hands while my vision blurred and my hands shook as I vaguely noticed the viyle red still leaked from my ears; no sooner did I pass out surrounded by chaos and undoubtedly late for work knowing Naru was not going to be happy. And then it all went blank.

I woke up blurredly. White flashing into my eyes as I groaned and my hearing was muffled while my head promptly decided it was the best idea for it to possibly kill what ever brain cells I currently had as Naru would put it; with the way my head was pounding I could not at the moment disagree with the assessment if Naru was here speaking about it outside my conciousness. soon my vision began to focus more and I could see distorted blurry transparent people's figures surrounding me and the blurry figure of a solid one standing beside me talking but all I could hear was a deep mumbling voice. I could only make out some of the words the what I'm assuming is a male voices words. My-Ms.-we-are-you-have-and-current-it-take-for-ear-all-so-administer-function-same-changes-odd-so-well-to-contact-family, he said. So instead of trying to understand his broken garble talk I told him promptly in my apparently raspy voice that I could not understand him and would like to make some phone calls. It was then that I heard the tapping of his shoes as he walked around the room to hand me the phone at which I held close to my face so I could see the numbers and called Lin. Who I greeted as he was also an assistant, and then he gave the phone to Naru.

Mai, Naru said. All the while I could hear the struggle in his voice as he spoke which I mistook it for anger little did I know it was something else. Worry; because I had been out for 2 weeks and in that time I had changed for better or worse.
