Chapter 2: Museum? That's BORING!

"I'm Here!" Mai panted after running for what seemed like 100 miles "Wow, Mai, You're an hour early." Naru said with a shocked expression in his voice but with an ever so emotionless face "Wha- I'm EARLY?!" Mai exclaimed "I thought I was late!" she wheezed "But- But I ran like HELL to get here" Her face turning redder by the second Naru looked at her for a moment then walked over to the brunette and patted her head "Good girl!" He smiled slightly obviously enjoying her ranting about how early she was "I'm NOT a DOG, NARU!" she screamed at her boss who snickered and turned to walk back to his office "Don't forget the tea, Mai" He gave her a small half- hearted smile and went into his office and shut the door "Yes, Your highness!" She cursed under her breath and set to work.

~~~~ 1 Hour Later ~~~~

"Where's Masko?" Mai asked Ayako curiously "Oh, She had to go back to filming on set for another series of her precious show." Ayako smiled at Mai "Oh, I guess she had to, or lose her show, right?" Mai questioned her "Uh huh." Ayako replied "I better see if everyone arrived " Mai grinned at the priestess and walked off still grinning.

"YES! Masako won't be able to take Naru away from me on this case!" Mai cheered in her mind and did a fist pump "What... The... Hell... are you doing that for Mai?" Naru stared at her Mai jumped a mile "OH! Nothing Naru just looking forward to the case thats all!" She smiled at him and fist pumped again Naru roled his eyes at his strangly happy assistant and brushed on past her, Mai groaned she kept on embarressing herself infront of her long time crush "It's never gonna happen, How whould HE ever like someone like me?" she thought out aloud "What are you on about now, Mai?" Naru turned around and looked at her confusion in his eyes "Umm nothing, Naru!" She flung her arms around in denial.

Naru sighed and walked back up to her caught her flailing arms and stopped them then took one of his hands and lifed her chin to make Mai look into his eyes "Look Mai, you can never keep a secret from me so just say it, whats up with you lately? You seem... distracted." He spoke softly and looked deep into her eyes like he was some sort of hypnotist Mai was now completely red in the face "Honestly Naru, It's nothing..." Mai was really nervous now "No Mai, Tell me now" He spoke more harshly and his eyes narrowed making Mai even more nervous than she was already.

"I- I Like-" Mai was cut off by Monk "Naru! Are you gonna tell us what the case is about or what?" Mok shouted to the 17 year old boy, Naru rolled is his eyes again "Coming." he gave Mai a quick glare as if to say 'I WILL find out, sooner or later' Naru then let go of Mai and walked in Monks direction, Mai sighed and looked at Monk who gave Mai a quick wink she mouthed a 'Thank You' to him and walked over to the group and sat dow on the sofa and waited for Naru to reveal the new case.

"Our next case is in Kyoto, We are going to the National Museum of Kyoto to investigate a new attraction that has been causing a problem in the museum, the curators and cleaners have been hearing strange noises and occurances from that area so far one persone has died but a few people have been seriously injured and are in hospital all of them are to frighened to talk about the incident and will refuse to talk to anyone who asks them about it." Naru explained the case to them "Musum? That's BORING!" Mai thought aloud yet again causing everyone to look at her with confustion "I don't care if it bores you, Mai, you're on a case so you shouldn't be so bored" Naru gave her a cold glare then went back to sorting out the case "Now we have a three hour and fifteen minute drive to the destination so Ayako, Monk and John you go in Monk's car" The three nodded at him "Good, so Lin, Me and Mai will take the S.P.R. Van." Naru finished speaking give Mai another quick glare and walked off.

"This is gonna be a Loooonnnggg day." Mai groaned.
