Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping

Hello,I'm still here

All that's left of yesterday!

how he regretted ever taking that case. It came at a cost. The ghost gave him two options. Option one,his entire team dies or option two, one member dies. This quite rare since you hardly find any ghost that negoitiates.

He chose neither, he was not willing to lose anyoneon his teaMm. The ghost suddenly began to attack Mai and as predictable as evernaru came to rescue her, but he was too late. The sword had pierced her straight through the left ventricle of her heart rendering her dead.

###Flashback###
"Mai, watch out!" He shouted.

Too late, the sword pierced her heart. She collapsed cpughing up blood. He rushed to her sidecatching her just before she hit the ground. He felt anguishas craddled her limp body gently in his arms.

"N-Na-Naru." She said.

:Mai, sav eyour strength."He said.

"I h-h-have to t-t-tell y-yo-you something." She stuttered as she spoke. Her body felt like it was on fire.

"Mai we have to get you to a hospital." He told her.

"N-N-Naru, I-I'm n-not go-going t-t-to make i-it." She said as she coughed up more blood.

"Don't say that." He said.

"I-It wa-was n-ne-never G-Gene, I-I lo-love y-you, on-only y-yo-you." She said before she gave out. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head.

"NO,NO,NO! Wake UP MAI! You can;t do this to me. Mai please, MAI!" He screamed, tears of anguish cascaded down his face. He couldn't believe she was dead. Mai was dead. He heaved her off the ground making his way to the rest of the team. Guess it was option two then.

"MAI!" Monk and Ayako yelled.

"Wat happened to Mai-Chan?" Masako asked. Over the years sthat Naru was gone masako got over her rivilary with became very close, more like sisters. Masako was very overprotective of Mai and her fragile heart.

"She is dead. THe ghost killed her." Maru said, not caring if people saw him cry.

"No it can't be." She said, disbelief clearly written on her collapsed to her knees sobbing in her hands. John hesistantly began to comfort her.

###End Of Flashback###

She told him not to take the case. However, he was too god damn stubborn to listenand look what it cost him. The love of his life is dead and the worst part is that it was all his fault. he never told her how he felt.

Mai, I'm sorry.

"We gather here today in honour of our friend Mai Taniyama, out dearest and most trusted friend." John began.

"She was always there for us. Her kindness new no bondaries. She was a bright young girl with a contagious personality. We will miss her dearlyas she has left our world in spirit and into the next. May god be with her." He said.

If you looked around, you could see the mournful faces of the SPR. Even Lin was crying!

Ayako had long since collapsed from ctyingas MOnk stood there to comfort her. Msako stood next to Madoka as she cried silent was bawling her eyes out as clutched onto Lin's arm. yasuharastood the other side of Masakogently rubbing her back.

And all Naru could do was blame himself, it was all his fault.

THE END!
