Well I am back so sorry about the very long wait. All I will say is that a lot happened in my real life. Nothing bad, just a lot of stuff.

I don't own Ghost Hunt.


Mai slowly opened her eyes and looked around the dark room. 'I must have slept all day. I hope Naru isn't pissed at me.' Mai tried to get up only to find that she had an arm wrapped around her waist. She looked over to find Yasu sleeping next to her. The moonlight gave him an almost angelic glow, and without his glasses, he was very attractive. 'What the hell am I thinking, its Yasuhara,' Mai scolded herself. "I do love Yasuhara, he makes me laugh and he's always there for me when I need him." Mai gave out a long sigh. "He is much better than Naru, it's not like he would ever make me cry, or lie to me, or suddenly leave me."

"But, you don't love me like you do him," Yasu said opening his coal black eyes.

"I said that out loud?" Mai's face turned three shades of red. Yasu pulled her closer to him, placing his face against her neck.

"If you ever give up on him, I will always be here for you Mai," Yasu whispered as he placed kisses gently across her neck. Mai let out a soft moan, as he slowly moved up her neck, nipping at her ear. "But until that day, I will always be your best friend. If you're feeling better we should head to the base." Yasu quickly unwrapped himself from around Mai and got up. "I'll be right outside the door so you can get ready. I think I need a moment to cool down." Yasu made his way out the sliding door.

Mai sat on the futon still a little dizzy. 'Did Yasu just confess to me,' Mai thought in stunned wonder. She quickly got dressed and made her way out the room. "That didn't take you very long. I thought it took girls hours to get ready," Yasu said will a childish grin.

"Are you asking for trouble," Mai gave Yasu a playful smile.

Mai and Yasuhara walked into the base to find everyone in a state of panic. "What do you mean your familiars are missing? How is that even possible?" Naru glared at Lin.

"It shouldn't be, but they never returned after I sent them with Mai." Lin replied. He seemed visibly shaken. "Even the one that I keep around you is gone."

"Don't you keep one with you," Yasu asked walking over to the rest of the group sitting on the couches. "Is that one still around?"

"No I sent four of them with Mai." Lin turned and looked at Mai. "Did anything happen to you on your way to your room?"

"Hey, didn't you say you couldn't remember how you got there last night?" Ayako chimed in before Mai could answer.

"No, I don't remember even leaving the base last night," Mai answered.

"How can you not remember," Naru gave Mai one of his classic death glares, Mai just rolled her eyes at him.

"Simple, I remember sitting in base and begging Lin to let me go to the room, then nothing." Mai turned to Lin, "Can't you call them?"

"Don't you think he has tried that already, idiot." Naru turned away from the group and started glaring at the monitors. Mai's face turned bright red as she began to boil over.

Ayako, seeing were the argument was about to go, grabbed Mai and dragged her out of the room. "What is his problem," Mai nearly screamed.

"Mai, you weren't there for all of that. Naru nearly flipped when he found out that you weren't in the room. Then Lin informs him that his familiars are all missing after they took you to the bedroom. We were lucky you and Yasu walked in when you did, he would have had a search party trying to track you down." Ayako still holding on to Mai's shoulders started pushing her down the hall. "Now the best thing for the boy is a cup of tea. Hell, best for all of us, is if that kid got some tea."

Mai was lucky that the owner of the temple had installed a modern kitchen; she had been worried about trying to make tea over a fire. The kitchen was done in a western style having a big gas stove and all the essentials for serving large groups of people. As Mai was filling the kettle, she was thinking about what Yasuhara had told her earlier. 'I don't get him, first he tells me to talk to Naru about his feelings for me, than he goes and kisses me like that.' Mai almost burnt herself as the water overflowed in the tea pot.

"What's with you Mai, you've been a little distracted lately?" Ayako helped Mai take the kettle off the stove, "Well more than usual."

"If I tell you, will you promise not to say anything to anyone?" Mai whispered.

"You know you can tell me anything, Mai. I may like teasing you, but I will never do or say anything you want kept secret," Ayako gave her a serous look.

"It's about Naru and Yasuhara," Mai let out a long sigh. "You see, Naru has been acting really strange around me. Whenever were alone he stands very close to me, he even touches my arms. I know that sounds like its nothing but…"

"It's not like him," Ayako finished for her.

"And yesterday I thought he was going to kiss me. That was until you and Monk came storming into the room." Mai began to fill a large cup.

"Wow, sorry about that," Ayako started laughing, "If I had known that was happening I wouldn't have made such an entrance. But, what's got you upset about Yasuhara?"

"He confessed to me and kissed my neck." Mai answered.

"What! Well I had an idea he had a little crush on you, but I never thought he would really act on it." Ayako grabbed the cup and headed back to the base.

"I really don't know what to do about it." Mai looked like she was about to cry from all the frustration.

"I recommend not thinking on it, at least till this case is over," Ayako suddenly stopped. "Mai, do you see that?" Mai looked down the hall and froze. At the end of the hall was a giant black demon dog.


I shouldn't have anymore drama, so the updates should be regular.
