Day four had pass since Naru was emitted to the hospital. Everyone visited him everyday including Mai's friends. But apparently Mai never came after Naru had woken up. That day, the doctor said it was fine to let him go home and rest. Lin was send by Luella to pick him up and to keep an eye on him. When Naru got back to the mansion, It was very quiet. "Lin, where is everyone?" he look up to the tall Chinese man next to him. "Martin is on a case, Luella and Madoka are at the Research Centre. Mai and her friends are working on their assignments." He answer Naru's question then headed to the kitchen.

'Assignments?' he thought to himself. "What assignments?" He ask Lin as the sat down on one of the counter chairs. " You don't know? Didn't Madoka fill you in on why Mai and her friends are here for." He ask getting a jar of orange juice from the refrigerator, he pour it in two cups and gave one to Naru. "All Madoka told me that Mai and her friends came to study under father." He stated what Madoka had told him in the hospital.

"Well, Noll. Mai came to study what ghost and ESP. One of Madoka's friend told her that five students from her class love anything related to ghost so her friends ask Madoka to ask Martin if she could send over the five students. Madoka's cousin, Hayate. You've met him before when you were younger and Gene was still here at the time. He's Mai's new principle. The one we met back when we were investigating the old school house, pass away nearly two years." Lin told him as Naru nodded the whole time. (A/N: doesn't he dizzy nodding so many times.)

"What type of assignments did father gave them?" Naru went back to the topic they were talking about earlier before Lin explain everything to him. "The fails that people want your father to investigate. Apparently, Martin is testing them in their research and their observation skills. They need to pass up a report in a week s time then later on they and a team will be send to investigate their own cases. Anf try to solve their case. Every week either, Martin, Luella, Madoka or me will give them a new assignment." Lin answered him before leaving Naru alone.

Over to Mai

Mai was in her room typing on the computer that was a gift from Professor Marin and Professor Luella. Each of them each got a laptop, a set of notebooks that was enough to last them three months and a a 32 GB thumb drive to save their reports and articles about their case. She been at it for two days straight. After she witness Naru fainting then woke up in the hospital after two days, Martin gave them their assignment. Our of all the friends, she had the most difficult case. A family who just move in a month ago to a house that was built on top of a mansion that many people were murdered and some even commit suicide from all the trauma they receive.

Mai was half way done with her report. Around the 18th century the mansion that was demolish used to be owned by one of the most prestigious and riches family, that was the Rosabelle. The Rosabelle family had a masquerade party to help their daughter Melissa to find her the prefect man. An Earl. The father of Melissa was named Jason and her mother was name Ella. They both love Melissa very much and as Melissa wish she had a masquerade to find her prefect man.

That night at her Masquerade, Melissa found the perfect man by the name of Ron for also one of the most prestigious and rich family, the Philefin family. They were happy together. She had many suitor that wanted her hand in marriage but she rejected them all claiming that she was happy with Ron.

Mai was so tired so she decided to close her eyes for a few minutes. But she was just too tired and she fell asleep. She wanted to get up and continue but she had already drifted into her dreams. Where she was about to witness the massacre of the Rosabelle family, Philefine family and other prestigious family.

Mai dream

That night in the Rosebelle's mansion, they were going to old Melissa' s birthday. She was turning 18. Ron had already promise her once she turn 18, they would get married happily. But that dream crash horribly that night. One of Melissa's suitors was angry that she had chose Earl Ron Philefin. She should have chosen him.

Mai stood at the scene looking at what had happen before the massacre. The first thing when she entered her dream, she heard a cold laugh that made Mai's leg feel like jelly. "AHAHAHAHA!" A cold laughter rang through her dream. She turn over to where the cold laugh came came from. She saw a young man around his mid-twenties, in 18-centuary formal wear. He was sharpening a butcher knife.

Then the scene change, she was outside the Rosabelle mansion. The mansion was beautiful. All kind of different colour roses surrounded the mansion and its gates. Other prestigious family came in their horse carriage.

Then she was moved to a room. It was a light pink room. A vase of light pink roses was placed on a table. "I wonder who owns this room is this." She said to herself. "Ron, hurry up." She heard a girls voice from outside the door before the door opened. "Relax Melissa. You still have time to get ready for your party. After all, your mom and dad are the best party host." The young man with blond hair and green eyes said to the brunette with dark blue eyes. "So this is Melissa's room and that's Melissa and Ron. They make a cute couple." Mai mumbled to herself, making mental notes for her assignment.

"I can't help it Ron but today it is my birthday." She said happily, jumping up and down. Ron laugh at her. "Melissa,." He said to her putting his arms around her waist and leaning to kiss her. "Ron" she whispered softly. 'what a cute couple. Would it be like this if Naru and I got together?' Mai thought to herself as she saw the young couple kissing passionately.

Suddeny, the scene fast forward and Mai was surrounded by people. She was standing in the middle of the ballroom. Couples were dancing, chatting and laughing. "Ladies and gentleman." A voice came from the long stairway. A butler was standing there, getting everyone's attention. "I now present you the young mistress Melissa Rosebelle and her fiancé Lord Ron Philefine." He said stepping aside as Melissa and Ron made their way down the steps. Everyone started clapping their hands. Melissa walk over to where Mai suspected to be her and Ron's parents. She gave them each a kiss and a hug.

The scene before fast forward again. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" a high pitch scream rang out. She turn around and she froze on her place. 'Blood. There's a lot of blood here.' She thought to herself. Suddenly, she could see the whole ballroom. The stench of blood was heavy and it made the air very heavy. She look around the ballroom. There was people who lost their leg or arms and some people had lost their heads. There was a few women who had minor injuries. "Stop. Stop. Please don't do this, Kent." Melissa's voice could be heard. Mai ran towards Melissa's voice. "I'm going to kill you Melissa. And then we'll be together forever."

As Mai found where they were. She saw that Ron had been decapitated, he had no head, hands and feet. His eyes were wide open but there was no life, only dull green was present. Blood was slipped everywhere. There was a pile of dead bloody bodies around the room they were in. Mai turn to where Melissa and the young man that went by the name Kent were. They were at the corner of the room. Kent stood over Melissa and he bent down to her. " I love you Melissa but you jest had to went and chose that loser Ron. I'm better than him and everyone else." Kent said with an evil smile on his face. Melissa only whimpered. " and once I kill you then we will be together forever." He claim as he brought down the bloody butcher knife down onto Melissa's head. Her blood decorated the wall and Kent. He started to laugh like a maniac. Mai's leg left like jelly. "What a horrible way to die." Mai said to herself as tears started to fall. "Im going Melissa." Kent said to himself but Mai caught what he said. He pulled out the butcher knife from Melissa's skull and he swag the bloody soak knife in his face. Cutting his face in half. He fell dead.

End of dream

Mai jumped from her sleeping position on the table in the room. Tears stream down her face. "My god, that was horrible. There was so much blood. The people there was decapitated by that madman Kent." She said to herself, her head in the hands. That was so gruesome.

.knock.

"Mai? You in there." It was Naru. "Naru?" she said but then curse that her voice was a bit broken. "Mai, what's wrong? Did something happen." He ask. "I'm fine Naru. I'm kinda busy right now. Don't disturb me." She said to him thinking to herself. ' I can't let Naru see me like this.' "Go away Oliver." She raise her voice louder. "Sorry." He said to her as he walk away and to his room. 'Did Naru say sorry?" she was shock. "I'm sorry Naru but I can't let you see me crying." She said t herself returning to her assignment.
