And here is chapter 3 thanks for following and liking

It's quiet in my dream, there's no sound. Even though the rain is pouring down I can't hear it. She's deaf. I look up at him, Ryu his name coming to my mind I love him so much, she loves him so much. I mentally shake my head. He looks at me, Mimiko, I can't understand him but he's shouting I look at his mouth

'you can't understand me, so why should I go out with you!'

Tears prick her eyes and he leaves. She collapses on the pavement sobbing. I'm suddenly watching her, my heart breaks for her but my senses tingle.

"It's time to see the demon Mai"

Kin says appearing behind me, she points at Mimiko muttering she screams as her eyes go black swallowing her pale blue ones.

.

I'm thrown out of the dream, whimpering I run to the bathroom coughing.

.

I can't sleep so I get changed, taking care to add foundation to my neck and leave quietly not disturbing Masako and Ayako who is snoring slightly, I grin as I shut the door. I reach the base to find Lin at the monitors

"Hi do want some tea?"

"Sure...you're up early"

he remarks

"Mmm I'm going for a run after this. Okay?"

He blinks and nods accepting the tea.

"Seeya"

I shout back.

.

I pull on my trainers and walk to the edge of forest, looking back at the house I start running. About ten minutes later I stop, with a quick glance around I touch the mark at my neck. A five pointed star, a demon mark

"You can come out now Kin"

It comes out, a faint pink figure of smoke. Long black hair tied in a ponytail, a face that is neither feminine nor male and a figure that's just straight down, revealing nothing. That's Kin, my 'golden' demon and friend.

"Can I go all out?, I'll go crazy if I can't stretch a bit"

she whines, I smile and it grins back, possessing me again. We run.

It's the most amazing feeling running with Kin. The ground can't keep up and I leap high enough to swing from the branches of the maple trees their leaves shaking at every touch. I laugh at the top of my lungs letting myself fall onto a bed of fallen leaves. I sit back and listen to my laboured breathing.

"It's fun right Mai"

Kin says to the left of me. I close my eyes and tilt my head to sunlight coming through the canopy. My hearts racing as my hands curl around the red leaves.

"Yeah"

I sigh back. Its another half an hour till I move.

.

By the time I get back everyone's up and having breakfast.

"Mai you're a mess what were you doing?"

Ayako exclaims.

"Running" Yasu and I reply at the same time. I look pointedly at him and he shrugs biting into his toast.

"You still do that Mai you're not going to get any muscles no matter how hard you tr~y"

I walk over and poke his stomach

"No maybe not, but at least I haven't got a round belly from all that jam"

I jump back as he tries to grab me. I laugh

"I'm taking a shower I'll be back in ten" I hold up my hands indicating this.

Ta Ta Ta hope you enjoyed
