Ch. 4
Mai landed on the floor with a thud. What the hell is wrong with him! She thought. But then she remembered it was the demon and not Naru who was acting like a total asshole.
"Lin!" Monk yelled as he throw his shoulder into the door of Naru's office. Lin came running.
"What's going on?" Lin demanded.
"Mai's in there with Naru! The fucking door won't open!" Monk yelled.
XXXXX
"Your friends are getting pretty upset." The demon noted.
"Their friends too." Mai said getting to her feet. The demon jumped on the desk and crouched down to Mai's eye level.
"You seem pretty confident that you will make it out of this situation alive little girl." He sneered.
"I have faith that Naru will too." She whimpered. She tried so hard to stand her ground. Her head was throbbing from the hit she took.
Come on Naru. Fight this demon! She thought to herself.
"He can't. His soul is too dark to fight me. He should have been a little more sensitive, and not so quick to temper." The demon laughed again.
"Mai!" It was Lin's voice. "Mai can you here me?"
"Lin!" she replied.
"Don't look in its eyes! It could possess you too!" Lin paused.
Its eyes? She thought. She already looked into its eyes. Not once but three times! The darkness. The lifeless hate she felt when she did the first time. How come she wasn't possessed? Maybe they had no effect on her?
"I know everything about this boy. I know how disturbed he really is. Why he acts like a hot shot. Why he can't sleep at night. I know all his deep dark secrets." he leaned closer to Mai's face. She tried desperately to back away, but her feet were so heavy.
"Naru…I know your still in there." She whispered. Tears started to form in her eyes.
"No he's not." the demon said. He was getting a little annoyed with this child. Maybe he should kill her. Instead of having her watch him die, he could kill her!
"Mai! You can't reason with it! That's not Naru!" Monk screamed through the door.
"I know he's still there." she went on.
"That's enough!" The demon grabbed Mai by the throat, slamming her into the wall.
"Mai!" Monk screamed. No matter how the hard the two men rammed the door, it wouldn't budge.
"P-p-please…..Naru…..don't…" Mai managed in a whisper. The demon grinned.
Mai was starting to lose consciousness. Black spots in her vision, her lungs burning for air, the pressure from the demons grip beginning to crush her neck. She fixed herself on his eyes. Waiting for the color to come back into the hallow pits. She wanted Naru to come back and save her from this monster that was killing her.
"Naru…..I….love. You and…..always will…" There. She thought. I said it.
The demon continued to laugh. Finally, Mai's body become lifeless and fell to the floor. Naru shook his head to clear the fog when he noticed her on the floor.
"Mai!" He rushed to her side. Her eyes staring into space. "Mai!"
"One more time!" Both men crashed into the door ripping it off its hinges. Monk looked up and saw Mai lying on the floor.
"What did you do you monster?" Monk screamed as he scooped up the dead girl in his arms.
"I-I don't know what happened?" Naru stuttered. He looked to Lin for support, but the Chinese man sighed heavily as he took the girls pulse.
"Naru….she's dead." Lin confirmed.
Monk held the girl tightly and sobbed. He never got to tell her how he felt about her. And now he never would.
Naru couldn't understand what was happening. There was no way he could of killed Mai. He wasn't a murderer. Naru started to panic. He started to walk towards the crying monk.
"Get away!" Monk screamed at him. "You fucking bastard! You killed her!"
"Naru." Lin said laying his hand on the boy's shoulder Naru quickly shrugged it off.
Naru tried to remember what happened. The only thing he could remember was looking out the window. He walked over to it. The blinds were down but he could feel the breeze letting him know the window was open. He opened the blinds and stepped out onto the ledge.
"Naru!" It was Lin. Naru didn't pay any attention to the man yelling at him. He took a deep breath and let himself fall.
"I'm sorry Mai" he said a he hit the concrete.
"My god!" Lin said as he saw Naru's broken body lay in a pool of blood.
"We were too late. We couldn't save him."
Monk gently laid the body of the girl down. Tears ran his face. He kissed her cheek.
The end
I'm so sorry, I don't know what happen! I had an idea in my head and it completely flew away….please don't be too harsh in your reviews.
