Ghost Hunt

Destiny's way back to you

Chapter 7

Yes you are reading right, it is a NEW Chapter...I know the world is coming to the end, I updated.

I'd like to thank everyone who commented and wanted me to continue I will work extra hard on the chapter updated now I promise.

Oh! I noticed my mistake in the last chapter when it was like " "Naru" she said in an almost inaudible voice "you win" she right before her body went limp causing her to fall back through the hole, she heard worried voice every thing went black.

Oh Naru was right, it was a hiding place for something it was a hiding place for half rotten bodies!"

What it should be is " "Naru" she said in an almost inaudible voice "you win" she right before her body went limp causing her to fall back through the hole, she head worried voice every thing went black.

Oh Naru was right, it was a storage place for something it was a storage place for half rotten bodies" so yeah it's all good now

Well as I know listening me to go on and on never ending is probably not to amusing (At least I wouldn't think so but who know you could be one of those people, ya' know ...a stalker, neh i'm just kidding I love you) I shall start the new Chapter of...

DESINY'S WAY BACK TO YOU ... I know a bit dramatic and your probably think "...ohh...so she's crazy...that makes cense " but to me...it was worth it .

Mai opened her eyes only to meet gentle blue ones (defiantly not Naru)

"G-gene?!" Mai Said Surprised as she flung her arms around the unexpected boy, causing them to tumble to the ground.

"How?!When?! Why?! GOLDFISH?!" Mai asked all at once confusing the boy who looked down at her startled.

"I don't know. Just a couple minutes ago . I was going to come back eventually. The snack that smiles back. " The Gene answered her questions as a small smile played on his lips.

Mai Stood up extending her arm out to help Gene up , which he took as he pulled himself to his feet.

"So do you know any thing about the case?" Mai question as she looked a round the Scene.

They were Standing in the Blue summers glow , but Five years earlier. The lights were low for the only source was paper lanterns that hung in the air and the flashing lights from the stage.

Though to Mai and Gene it was all mute, there was a band playing and they seemed to be good because everyone was up dancing and moving to the music.

"You know more then me right now actually" He said as he looked about the people taking in faces.

Mai explained everything about the case and what has been happening outside of the dream world "...There were bodies up there , it was so terrible" Mai said in a soft voice.

"it's fine Mai, we will just work hard to find out whatever happen to them" he comforted the girl, placing a warm hand on her shoulder.

Mai looked up in surprise "Gene, your dead right?" She asked .

"Yes, there is no way for me to come back" he replied almost sadly.

Mai's eyes held puzzlement as she looked at Gene's hand then up to his face "Then...why is your hand warm?"

Gene's eye widened a fraction as he took his hand of the girl and studied it for a moment "I don't know"

Just then a Small sound came from the shadow of the corner, both Mai and Gene's heads whipped towards the sound.

The Small foot steps became louder when finally Mizuki appeared from the shadows wearing a small blue dress that dance along her knees and bow that tied in the back. Black hair tied neatly in to a pony tail.

"MIZUKI!" Mai called out as she ran to the young girl "are you okay?" she asked bending down to be eye level with the Mizuki who was now supporting a small blush.

"I-I hurt you last time...why do you care about me still?" she asked trying to hide her blush by looking away "Because I know you are not a bad person, Mizuki" Mai said affectionately.

Mizuki's head snapped back towards Mai her Blush even deeper "I-I ...Thank you...sister"

Mai gave a small smile before turning towards Gene "Gene this is Mizuki, Mizuki this is Gene" she introduced them to each other.

Gene gave a smile as he lent down to be face to face with Mizuki as he extended his hand "Hello there" he said tilting his head to the side.

Mizuki gave a smile back as she shook his hand "he's cute" she whispered to Mai which she gave a small nod to thinking that Gene didn't hear but Gene still caught it.

"Why Thank you, you too" he Thanked them a sly smile played on his lips as he looked up at a blushing Mai.

Mai's face was read as she searched through her head for an excuse "Err...I meant-"

"Mai"

A voice rung out through the air cutting Mai off . "That's Naru's voice" Gene said as he looked around before his eyes finally fixed on her "You have to go back now" he said as he stood up straight "but-" Mai started but was cut off (Mai: Damn it Stop cutting me off people) by Mizuki

"Don't worry sister, Gene and I will take care of things... and i'll try to remember ...that night to help you" she said with a small blush.

"Mai"

"Okay...i'll try to figure out more about it out there" she said as Gene and Mizuki began to fade

The last thing she heard was two voices talking at the same time (as in Naru and Gene) so it was hard to make it out , something about her name being called which was Naru and Gene saying something would tie or something counting as a tie

Mai eyes slowly opened trying to adjust to the light "Naru" She mumbled trying to make out the face that was above her.

"gee thank you Mai" The feminine voice said in sarcasm. Mai squinted her eyes and made out the face of Akayo "Errm...Sorry" she said trying to sit up only to be pushed back down.

"No you need to lie down or you'll end up fainting " Akayo said as she fixed the cool clothe on Mai's forehead before moving to sit on the other couch beside Bou-san.

"What happened?" Came a cold voice from the side of her, Mai looked up to see Naru sitting in a chair next to her head.

"I-" Mai closed her eyes for a moment before answering "I saw..there are bodies up there" she said in a low voice her hands slightly trembleing from the horrid memory.

"WHAT?!" everyone asked astonished (Minus- Lin and Naru (Naru: well of coarse I'm only astonished when I look in the mirror (Lin: -sigh- you are a narcissus there is no way denying it)

Mai nodded in reply "they are almost all decomposed I'm surprised that you can't smell it from in here" she said grimacing back on the memory.

" Lin" Naru ordered as he stood up and picked up the chair, Lin fallowed behind along with the rest of the males

Akayo, Madoka, Masako, and Mai waited in silenced for a little bit.

They could here the silent mumbles of their co-workers talking and then the sound of the chair scraping against the floor then it was silent for a little bit more before Takigawa raced back in holing him mouth and ran straight to the washroom fallowed by Akayo.

The rest of the males leisurely walked in as if silently cheering it wasn't them...Mai took it as they trick Takigawa into playing Rock Paper Scissors, which he totally sucks at –sigh- will he ever learn.

"Lin, call the police station tell them about it" Naru Ordered before walking back towards the center of the room "Everyone we shall call it a night, you will share what you have found tomorrow" he said when Takigawa and Akayo finally came out of the bath room.

Everyone was making their way out of the base to the dining room down stairs (Besides Takigawa...he decided to sit this one out)

Mai slowed down a bit as she lightly tugged on the back of Naru's shirt.

Naru stopped and looked back at Mai with a raised eyebrow "Yes?" He asked.

"Naru ...um i don't know how to say this...but..." she trailed off trying to think of the right way to say it "Spit it out, Mai" he said impatiently

"W-well when I fell and was knocked out I had a dream" she said as she played with the end of her shirt .

"why didn't you say that before" he turned to he was now completely facing her, she could tell the he was a little pissed off.

"Naru...Gene was there...he's back" She said not being able to look him in the eye but she could feel him staring down at her.

.

.

.

Mai Sat at the diner table glancing back between her food and Naru who was just staring off in space he didn't even say anything when she told him they just stood silence for a little while before he turned and walked down stairs.

"What is he thinking?" Mai asked herself before giving one last worried glance.

.

.

.

Later that night when everyone was in bed sleeping soundly, except for Mai she just lied awake in her bed worrying about Naru.

"What is wrong with him?" she asked herself.

She let out a sigh as she crawled out of bed, and made her way across the dark room trying nor to trip over anything.

As she quietly shut the door behind her she crept her way down the hall to Naru's room reading each number on the doors.

Mai's eyes came across Naru's door then to the door next to it "that's right Toya didn't come back yet..I should call him tomorrow to see if he is okay"

Mai's eyes found their way back to Naru's door, she stood and stared for a moment wondering what to say.

She could the faint sound of music down stairs, it was not too loud but enough that she could hear the light beat.

"What am I doing here?" she asked herself "I mean what am I even going to say?"

Mai let out a soft sigh and was about to turn to go back to her room when a voice called out her name form at the hall way.

"Mai? Mai is that you?" It was a deep voice but it had a bit of a slur to it.

Mai turned to see who was calling her name only to see a stumbling Naru coming down the hall way "Naru?" She asked as she walked swiftly down the hall to his side as she seen him stumble to the side a bit , she caught a strong smell of liquor coming form him.

"Naru, have you've been drinking?" She asked as she tried to stable him.

He let out a small laugh as he leaned on her for support "no...Maybe...Okay Mai you, you caught me.." he laughed a bit more "I have"

Mai Struggled down the hall with him "But why?" she managed to get out.

"weeeeelll, Why not?" he said as he lent his head down to rub his cheek against her hair before resting his head on her shoulder "mmm, you s-should come down t-to join me" he mumbled against her neck, his lips slightly brushing it making Mai beat red.

"N-no Naru, We can't- no wait- you can't we're on a case, here I'm taking you back to you room so you can hopefully sleep this off" She said as she struggled a bit more down the hall.

Mai let out a sigh of relief when they made it to the door it seem like they traveled a mile when actually it was only about 15 feet.

"Naru, I need your key" she said giving him a little shake. He groaned a bit before he let out a little laugh "call me Professor Davis again"

Mai's head snapped towards him, her eyes widened even more (if that was a possible) when she saw he was serious .

She let out a sigh "if I do, will you give me the key?" she asked he just nodded rubbing his face against her head lazily

"Gaaah! What is he doing?!" she thought with a giant blush.

"O-okay then Professor Davis, may I P-please have the key now?" she asked barley able to breathe. "Heerre" Naru said with a slur as he moved his hand lower as eh gave her the key.

Mai Quickly Unlocked the door and stumbled as fast she could into the room.

Naru groaned again as he somehow made his way to lean against they wall without missing it. Mai quietly shut the door before looking down a t Naru who was surprisingly staring back .

"C'mon Naru, you need to just make it to the bed" she said as she tugged on his arms to make him get up.

They were almost to the bed when Naru Suddenly stopped and Made Mai turn to face him "Mai, How far?" Naru asked Mai in all seriousness.

"it's just right there Nar-"

"No, that's not what I meant...how far did you and Toya go?" he Asked once again spitting TOya name with venom.

Mai was in shock form the question not only did it make her blush like a red balloon it made he forget how to breathe for a second.

Mai tried to laugh it off "W-What are you talking about-?"

"Mai" Naru's voice was stern as he inched closer to her "just answer..." he said leaning down so his fore head was almost resting on hers but moved back so the back of her legs were hitting the side of the bed.

" N-not far I've only kissed him once or twice...I- I'm to shy to do anything-" Mai was cut by Naru grabbing her wrists and pushing her to the bed (Don't worry my friends, no lemon)

"Naru!?" She gasped out as she was pinned down "what're you doing ?" she ask as she tried to wiggle away.

"I don't think your too shy Mai...that's not the reason, it's because you still in love with me, isn't it?"

Naru leaned down so their mouths were inches away, Mai tried to wiggle away but his grip was to strong.

"Your even more of a narcissus when your drunk, god " she tried to joke but he just smirk as his eey lazily stared into hers.

"Then prove me wrong" Naru said before his lips crashed into hers.
