Chap 7
Gene's pov
I arrived at a place like a pond. It looked like that it was already night. The only light came from the big moon light on the dark sky with some stars. I remembered when we moved to the portal, it still afternoon.
"Naru, is that really you?" Mai asked. "How could you come here?" She walked to us and stopped beside that Rei.
"I had promised to find you." Naru answered.
"But..." Mai looked at Rei worried. I could see that her eyes were red.
I looked at the blue haired man. He was really looked like a normal human but I could see his enormous aura. He was a dangerous. I'm sure of it.
Rei was holding Mai close to him. "What are you doing to Mai!" I shouted angrily. How could I'm not be angry to see that ghost holding my precious girl and top of it, he made her crying!
"Mai." Rei whispered. Mai shook her head. "Please Mai..."
"I don't want..." She whispered.
"Mai..."
'Its look like Mai has been manipulated by that Ein or Rei whatever his name.' I said to Naru. Naru clenched his fist angrily. I could see the dark and killing aura from my brother.
"No, I'm not manipulating her, Eugene Davis-san."
I and Naru looked at Rei surprised. He could hear our telepathy? "You damn ghost! Don't think you can fool me!" Houshou said. "Let Mai go!"
"No! Rei didn't do anything to me! Please believe me!" Mai defended him. Why she called Ein as Rei?
Rei chuckled and cuddled Mai. "Mai-chan defended me!" He exclaimed childishly. I blinked in confuse. Hey hey, where was the serious and rigid atmosphere just now!
"Rei! I'm serious! Hey!" Mai struggled while blushing lightly. The children who were floating on the pond giggled.
"Don't worry, Mai-chan. Let them think whatever they want..." Rei whispered. "I don't mind and don't care."
I looked at the two in front of me stunned. Is it just me or this place was really become hot? "Whoa, Naru's burning..." Kazahaya ,who was behind me, commented.
"Jealous?" Ryoutarou whispered to Kazahaya.
"It's not the time for joking you, two... Can't we become more serious for a bit..."I said to them. I sweat dropped a bit.
"Gene, I'm going to use my PK. I don't want to waste time to wait here." Naru claimed calmly but glared at me like saying –don't try to object with me-. I took his hand but suddenly my hand became transparent and I can't touch him.
Rei chuckled. "I don't think it is the best decision. Oh, speaking of the time. It's your time, Eugene Davis-san. See you again." Rei waved to me and I felt my vision darken. My body started to disappear but I heard he whispered "see you soon..."
The other was surprised. "Gene!" Naru shouted. Suddenly, Rei appeared behind him and whispered something. He pushed Naru and Naru fall into the pond. The children nodded to each other and dived down to the pond.
When I opened my eyes, I was in the water and it was so dark. I hurriedly held my breath. Where am I? Am I going to die? Hey, I am already dead. What am I feared for?
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared. I saw someone took my hand. He was surrounded by some children. He took me to the surface. I coughed a bit. Ryoutarou and Houshou pulled us.
"You must learn how to swim, stupid medium." Naru mocked.
"Shut up, idiot scientist..." I replied him back in heavy breath. I really hate to swim.
"Is that all you can say to your saver?" Naru grinned.
"You can be really annoying sometimes. Can I punch you just once?" I asked sarcastically.
"Of course not, because he is a narcissist." Mai said while giggling. We were bursted out into laughter.
A towel dumped into my head. I saw that Rei dumped a towel to Naru too. "What do you want?" I asked in caution.
"It had been a long time since you are in spirit state and now you had back to your body. Shouldn't you be happier?" He smiled at me.
"It is your handwork." I said sarcastically. I glared at him. He sighed and shook his head.
"Rei didn't do it, Gene. To tell you the truth, He couldn't manipulate people's mind. He only could manipulate things like making anything like he want or opening the portal to anywhere. I saw it. The woman who you promised to meet is the writer's lover. They once came here to search for Rei but Rei didn't grant their greedy wishes. Of course, Rei didn't take anything from them. They want to seek for revenge. The writers wrote anything bad about Ein and want to spread it. But he was dead because an accident. Then you came to cleanse him. He used his last power to tell his lover." Mai said.
Rei put his hand to the pond. Suddenly something formed. It was a scene like a film.
(The scene is original pov)
A man and a woman came to that pond. They met a spirit that took form as a black fire. Rei that time was in a bad mood because his territory invaded by some strangers. They used some weird spells to open the portal forcefully.
"What do you want?" Rei asked.
"We have a wish. We want money, much money that would never end even we had used it. We also want to be well known over the world." That man said.
'THAT'S TWO WISHES!' Rei shouted angrily in his mind. Before he said anything, the woman continued.
"We will give you any sacrifice. An animal or even a human." That woman said.
The black fire was darker that time. It showed that the spirit was really angry. "What do you think I am? A monster? An ogre? I'm a spirit of nothing. I don't need anything. I don't interested at what you said even a bit. Now disappear from my sight!" Rei shouted angrily. He used his power and threw that couple out. He heard that the couple cursed him and they would seek revenge. "Like I care..." Rei said. Some kids showed up from the pond, they moved around him.
The scene changed. It took place at a house, in a bedroom. There was a spirit that floating on the air and Gene who was looked at him beside the bed. "Please beat it for me." That writer said. Gene nodded and smiled at him. Rei, who was in his human form, was looking at them from the window. He hid his presence so Gene didn't feel him. That writer's spirit pointed at a book and he disappeared. Gene thought that the writer was moved but the writer's spirit hadn't moved that time.
Gene took the book from the table. "Ein?" Gene said curiously. He put the book in his bag and went away to meet his client.
Rei rubbed his head a bit. "Looked like it would be troublesome." Rei said. He sighed a bit. "I was about to take that book..." Rei opened a portal to the other place. It showed a house with a woman and that spirit's writer.
"A medium?" That woman asked.
That writer's spirit nodded. "I don't know his name but he has a dark blue hair and dark blue eyes. He is around fifteen. I had written your phone in the book. I'm sure he would help." The writer said.
"Don't worry, I definitely will seek for revenge to that spirit. He had taken your life."
"I'm glad to hear that. Thank you..." This time, the writer's spirit really moved. That woman took her phone and gripped it tightly.
"Even I didn't do anything..." Rei who was watching them said. Rei opened the portal to the pond. He lay on the water lazily. "I don't care whatever he will do... It's not like I did anything anyway..." He closed his eyes.
"He is irritated." Some kids' spirit said while the other nodded in agreement.
"AAAH!" Rei shouted in frustration. He opened a portal and went to it. He saw Gene was standing at the road. "It seems that this medium hasn't met that woman..." Rei said. "Should I take that book and go away... Am I a robber? Or maybe I should explain to him... It's looked like I worried about this stupid..."
"I guess it can't be helped. I should go home and try to contact her again..." Gene sighed heavily. Suddenly a flash of light blocked his vision. A red car appeared and hit him hard. Gene landed at the ground hard. He coughed some blood. He was bleeding on some place. It looked severe, very severe.
Rei was surprised. He sighed. "This is really bad..." Rei commented. "Wonder if he manage till hospital..." He saw the woman went out from the car. She looked at Gene in fear. She shook her head afraid. Suddenly she went back to the car and turned the engine on. "Oi!" Rei shouted. That woman hit Gene once more. Rei's eyes widened in surprise. "What the..." Rei said. That woman took out a sleeping back and put Gene into that bag. She looked around to make sure no one looked her.
She started the engine and drove as fast as she could. Rei cursed lightly. He opened the portal to his pond. The woman who was panicked didn't look around too much so she didn't recognize that place. She took the bag out and threw it to the water. That woman drove away as Rei closed the portal. Rei dived into the water. He sighed heavily. "This is really really bad. His spirit left his body. I think I must do this. But if I do that... But hey, that would work... Oh well, let's just do it." Rei muttered to himself. He used his power. His power surrounded Gene's body. The wound was healing slowly. His body was still working like normal. Gene looked like in deep slumber. The children helped to make sure that his heart still beating and he was still breathing. If he wasn't, they would tell their master.
Rei flied out from the pond. He sighed again. He had lost count how many times he sighed today. "Make sure you did a good job." He said. He forced Gene's spirit to a place.
The next scene showed an old building. Gene was standing there in confuse. "Where am I?" He asked. He looked at some people were running. The building was shaking badly. He saw a girl was in trouble. A shelf was collapsed to her. He ran and used his power without thinking anything to save the girl. The girl was saved but she was unconscious. He felt like absorbed. When he opened his eyes, he found out the girl. It was in the astral plane. "This girl... She has a psychic power... But it still half awake." Gene said. He saw that the girl's spirit opened her eyes.
"Naru?" She asked. Gene knelt down and smiled at her but in his mind he was wondering who she was meant. "You had back..." She continued. "You smiled...You should smile often, Naru..." She said and she went back to her body.
Then, it clicked. "Is she meant Noll?" Gene said.
(End of the scene back to Gene's pov)
"As you see, your soul was separated that time and it was very worst situation. Your heart had stopped. Rei used his power to make your heart keep beating and treat you under the water." The children moved around Mai. "These children helped you too." Mai smiled at the children.
I looked at Rei ashamed. So he helped me and he was the one who make me to be Mai's spirit guide. "Wait! What is he done to you then? He cursed you, didn't he?" Houshou asked.
"How could I curse Mai? Well, I can curse anyone. Usually I would like to curse them to a long suffering better than a quick death..." We all sweat dropped at his statement. "...but I didn't do it. I only separated Mai's memory from her body because she said that she didn't want to worry anyone so I took a part of her memory when she knew a stupid medium until we make our promise. I opened the portal to give her body back and told that man's pet." Rei pointed at Ryou.
"It's a shiki! Not a pet!" Ryou said in annoyance. He crossed his arms.
"Whatever it called. I didn't know that the woman who hit you became a ghost and hit her. His pet rescued her but it was killed by the impact. As the result, Mai's memory was taken by that woman that time because somehow she knew that Mai had seen me. I managed to get the memories back though." Ein explained. "And when I want to give her memory back, a medium spirits took it from me and bind it to the other spirit because he didn't have enough power." I looked down and rubbed my hair nervously.
"So, what about the book..." I said.
"I know about that book and I want to take it before my existence tainted by a stupid revenge. The main reason why I looked after you is because you're too stupid. You were fooled by that spirit. That's why I hate that kindness. You almost died by your kindness!" Rei scolded me.
"To be exact by his nativity and his stupidity." Naru said. I glared at him with –who exactly you sided with- look but he gave me a –I told you the truth- look.
"Well, about Mai, because she had fulfilled her promise, our contract is vanished. Your conscious will back to your body soon." Rei suddenly said
"But... If I go, you'll be alone again..."
"Don't worry Mai, we will meet again."
"But how?"
"I'll take the part as your spirit guide! We'll meet again later!" Mai was crying in Rei's embrace. Rei hugged her and stroked her hair slowly.
Original pov
Mai has calmed and she thanked Rei. Rei released Mai and stepped back. Houshou gave her a big hug. Kazahaya and Ryou joined in. Gene laughed while Naru was in guilty.
Gene knew what Naru's thinking and he smiled at him. Gene patted Naru and nodded. "Mai" Naru called. Mai looked at him. Houshou pushed Mai in front of Naru. "I had something to tell you."
"What is it?" Mai asked. She was clueless as ever.
Naru took a deep breath. 'GO! GO! GO!' He could hear his brother shouting in his mind. 'Hurry! Hurry! We don't know what will happen in a second. She could gone again if you don't confess now. I'm sure that she will accept!' Rei gave him an apologic look. He could hear what Gene said in Naru's mind. 'Ow come on! A man who isn't afraid at any ghost, afraid to confess to a little girl?' Gene mocked.
"Naru-chaaaan!!" Mai called impatiently. She waved her hand in front of Naru.
"I love you." Naru finally said it out even in a quite low voice and blushed a bit.
"You.. WHAT!?" Mai shouted and blushed furiously. Her hand stopped at mid-air.
Naru gripped her hand. "I love you..." Naru said louder.
"N..." Mai stammered. She was blushing and panicked. Rei was trembled furiously to hold his laughter, he also knew what Mai thought about.
Houshou and the other guessed what Mai would say. They were a few meters from the couple. "Why she take a long time just to answer!" Houshou whispered to Gene.
"I wonder when I will be an uncle." Gene giggled. They snickered like a naughty teenagers.
"Of course she will say yes..." Kazahaya whispered to the Houshou, Ryou and Gene who nodded in agreement.
"Hey, we're will be a relative." Gene claimed in a whisper.
Mai took a deep breath and looked at Naru's eyes sternly "I hate you, Naru." Mai said.
"See what I... YOU WHAT!?" The other shouted. Naru closed his face with his hand while Gene patted his back.
'Wow, a new world record. A famous idiot scientist is rejected by a senior high schoolgirl.' Gene said.
'Oh my God, It is so embarrassing...' Naru said.
Finally Naru can confess but...
Yey, Naru rejected! I always want to make this! (snickered) Okay, the story will come to the end!!
