Chapter 6 is up! I would like to thank my constant reviewers Borntoflyhigh, EverlastingRyo and Naruisawesome.

Sorry for the relatively short chapter. I forgot how SPR conduct the interviews again, so I'll post another chapter tomorrow after I watch an episode (Knowing me I'll probably watch the whole damn series…on the DVD Box set I got!)

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I do not own Ghost Hunt; it belongs to the Mangaka.

It was just before quarter past four and we had arrived back at SPR beheld with the sight of an empty office.

"Lin must have gone home already" Naru murmured before placing his coat on the rack and walking back to his cave. He then came back moments later; laptop in hand.

"Mai you're still standing there? Stop day-dreaming and make some tea, then get ready to interview the client. Or would you rather type away the information while I interview?"

"I'll interview the client Naru. Hey we are going to accept the case this time right?"

"I can't say, we haven't heard the predicament of the client yet. Unless you got some information without my consent, did you?"

"No, no! I'm just asking because we just haven't been on a case in a while, even if they sound good. I don't understand why didn't you accept them Naru?"

"I was just too busy this time." Naru replied stiffly.

"Eh but two years ago just before our break-up you-"

"Mai stop talking, you need to prepare tea and get ready for the interview. Don't let me repeat myself for the third time" Naru rudely interrupted, opening up his laptop and typing away on subjects that only God knows.

I huffed then stalked into the SPR kitchen, not noticing the unusual sigh of relief coming from the ice-cube.

As soon as I switched on the kettle, I felt a sharp pain zip through my head. "Ughh…" I murmured out as I fell to the ground, my hands clutching my head in a desperate need for the pain to go away.

Then everything went black as I felt myself slacken against the kitchen floor.

As I came to my senses I still felt a dull pain throbbing in my head as I reluctantly opened my eyes. I was in the dream world; the land where Gene resided.

Now not only do my dreams help through cases but they show whether it's useful for us to investigate a case from a client.

They normally appear right before the client walks in through the door, just like the current situation. I discovered this when Naru stopped accepting cases yet my dreams still kept coming.

Most of them were just like a story with Gene; being unfolded to me within my sudden slumber. It's like having a bedtime story; not before, but during.

Others, well let's just say that they were far from pleasant. In these ones Gene doesn't appear at all and it's just me fending for myself in unknown territory against an unknown force.

As I stood up I realized that it was one of those dreams without Gene. I looked around just seeing a misty haze all around.

Willing for something to happen I shouted out "Hey, anybody there?" To which no reply came…until, through the haze I saw blood red orbs peering out.

They were eyes…and they were staring right at me. I felt sweat trickle down my forehead as I slowly backed away, realizing that its eyes were as big as the whole of my body.

I walked ever so slowly backwards, having a full-on staring contest with the monstrous eyes until I felt a sharp rock jab my foot as I fell to the cold ground with a thump, losing eye contact with the monster.

'Now I've done it' I thought as I quickly looked up again for the red eyes…but they were gone. Before I had the chance to stand up again, I felt a cold breath of air tingle the hairs on my neck.

Then something whispered in my ear "You're going to die, just like my poor Miki!"

My eyes widened as I felt a sharp blade on my neck, it then rose off and slit the skin on my cheek causing a red ooze to dribble through, then the knife went back again to rest on my neck.

Before the monster slit the skin apart I screamed for dear life and then everything went black again.

I was back in the SPR kitchen, safe and sound.

I let out a sigh of relief before I hauled myself from the ground and prepared the tea. Plop, plop, plop… 'Huh, what's that sound' I thought to myself before I abruptly stifled my scream coming from seeing the sight of blood dripping onto the clean porcelain-white cup.

I carefully brought my pale hands to my right cheek then I looked at them…smothered in the red liquid.

I cursed out loud then set about cleaning the cup and finding the first aid-kit which was conveniently placed in the bottom cupboard of the kitchen.

After placing the plaster, setting the tea-cups on the tray and calming myself I stepped out, seeing the sight of Naru just welcoming the client through the door.

I walked out and placed the tea-tray on the table before giving out a cup to the client who was seated opposite of Naru. This of course gave Naru the perfect chance to see a sudden plaster stuck on my face in the space of ten minutes that he hasn't seen me.

He gave me questioning look while I gave him his tea, but I just ignored it; going through the questions that I was going to ask the client in my head instead.

I sat beside Naru and yet again entered my professional mode. (Once Naru said that he wished I stayed in my professional mode forever. Always be like Naru? No thanks! Though I wouldn't exactly mind attaining his looks and brains…).

Realizing that I was losing focus I slapped my cheeks…hard, and out of habit. With angry glares from an angry husband and a bewildered stare from a bewildered client I just coughed and calmly said "I thought I felt something on my cheeks."

I nervously laughed trying not to give away the fact that I was actually wincing of pain because of the cut.

Thinking back to the dream I shuddered. This is why SPR exists, to help those in need when against unseen, horrifying supernatural forces.

With a dream like that, I knew I had to take the case…no matter what Naru thinks for he's been reluctant to go on any case this year so I just need to be a more pushy wife nagging this way and that way! So on with the interview!
