Me: Hey everyone!
Naru: You need different openings.
Me: Well sorry! Why don't you do the next opening then.
Naru: Fine, I'm positive that I could make it much better then you every could.
Me: Fine!
Naru: Fine!
Me: Fine!
Naru: Fine!
Me: Fine!
Mai&Gene: PICKLES!
Naru: What?
Mai: Nothing.
Gene: We just wanted to be included into the opener.
Me: Fine. I don't own Ghost Hunt. Please R&R.
Naru's POV:
"Why did you say yes?"
"Because Mai is a very capable young woman and I believe that she will be able to do this with no problem at all. Also, I would prefer not to have a young man passed out in the middle of my floor." She said, pointing a mental finger towards me. 'How the bloody hell does she know that I pass out from using my abilities?"
"She just has skill." Gene though, connecting to my mind as we did so many times ago when we were little kids.
"Shut it."
"I hope you know that she's going to fail." I depaned, pulling myself away from my one on one mental chat with Gene.
"She won't." Hana disagreed, stating it as if it were some sort of prophecy.
"Hana, maybe you should listen to Oliver. He is the main researcher here." Izo suggested, putting a hand on his wife's shoulder.
"Yes, that may be true, but I think that I would know just what Mai can and cannot do. Especially since I have been testing and teaching her how to use her gifts as they come and grow unlike a certain researcher who just left her without even considering that she'd need help controlling them." She said, now glaring daggers at me as her tone took a turn for the worst. I resisted the urge to back away as her glare only intensified. Luckily she diverted her gaze back onto Izo making me let out a sigh of relief that I didn't know that I was holding.
"I understand that, but I think that Noll would know more about her since she worked under him for three years where as you only have known her for less than three months." Izo reasoned, calmly trying to explain the vast knowledge on Mai that she didn't have while I do.
"Are you saying that I don't know her?" She snapped, shooting up from her seat and knocking Izo's hand off.
"No, I'm saying that you don't know her as well as him." Izo said, quickly trying to fix the bomb that he set off.
"I would beg to differ."
"Hanayo, there are just some things that you think you know, but you really don't and this is one of them, so just let them do their job."
"What?" she asked in a whisper, taking a step back as she looked up at Izo with wide eyes.
"I said-"
"No, I heard you. You don't think that I'm just guessing on everything where as he's Mr. Know-it-all now do you?"
"On this subject, yes." Izo stated, giving off an air of I-am-right-and-you-know-it-so-just-give-up-already.
"I see, so you trust some boy who thinks he's some hot shot over your own wife." She snapped, obviously not reading into the air that Izo was giving off.
"No, that's not-"
"I don't want to hear it!" She shouted, covering up her ears and taking some more steps back to gain more distance between them.
"Hana will you just listen to me?" Izo begged, trying to get in front of her, only for her to turn around and face the wall.
"No, I believe that you made your statement quite clear." She said crossing her arms with a pouty look on her face. 'And I thought that Mai was bad. When Izo told me about his lovely wife he never mentioned this. I wonder if it's just the hormones?'
"Hana." He said, in a quieter tone, trying to pull one of the many married man's weapons out… the emotions. 'Now this should defiantly work. It always worked on Mai.'
"Don't you 'Hana' me!" She exclaimed, turning her body so that she was once again facing all of us.
'Looks like that tactic failed.' Gene thought, sending the message to me to once again start our own conversation without interruption the couple fighting at the moment.
'No kidding. Is this how all pregnant women are?'
'Possibly, but I'd put up with it if it ment that I'd be a dad.'
'I'd pass. I already have enough stress dealing with the idiots surrounding me, and I don't need a hormonal wife on top of that.'
'HEY!'
'Do you deny that you are an idiot?'
'Yes, yes I do!'
'I have thoughts otherwise.'
'Why you- is this any way to speak to your older brother.'
'If you're older than me, then act it once in a while instead of a little kid that just learned what two plus two equals.'
'Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just wait until-"
"Hana please, this is ridiculous!" Izo yelled, startling Gene and I and pulling away from our conversation and back onto the situation on hand.
"I'll tell you what's ridiculous, having to hear from you own spouse that they trust someone else more then you!" Hanayo yelled back. Her face was now red and her body began to tremble as the volume of their conversation grew louder and louder. 'Damn it Mai, if you're going to do this hurry up and get here already. How long does it take to change out of one outfit and into another?'
"Now you're just throwing things out of proportion."
"It wouldn't have come to this if you just trusted me!"
"I do trust you, but Oliver has more knowledge on this subject."
"But he doesn't know what she can do like I do!" she screamed, turning to go for the door only to get blocked by Izo. Realizing that she couldn't get around him, she settled for just turning around yet again.
"Hanayo will you just shut up and listen to me!" He shouted, grabbing a hold of both her shoulders so that she would face him. Her head was down and the rest of her body was shaking, most likely out of anger. Knowing that he wouldn't get anywhere if she was this mad he took a deep breath and made his tone softer."Hana please."
"I think you've said enough." She said, pushing him away from her as she turned to the client. "I'm sorry for all of the drama, can I get you some tea?"
"Yes that would be lovely. Also if I may return the favor by giving you some advice as to being a mother." Yuuki suggested, pointing towards Hanayo's slightly swollen stomach.
"That would be very nice, thank you." Hanayo said, smiling brightly at Yuuki as they got up and started to make their way to the kitchen.
"Wait, we'll go with." Izo said, trying to catch up and watch over his wife.
"Don't bother. You've already caused enough stress for Hanayo and the babies as it is. If she has anymore I fear that she'll have a miscarriage, so please by all means, stay here." Yuuki snapped, giving him a cold glare that made everyone, even me take a step away from her.
"Well that could have gone better." Gene said once they were out of ear shot.
"Damn it, if only she could understand that I don't want her or Mai to get hurt." Izo sighed, running his hand through his hair. I glanced over at him and saw that he looked beyond exhausted. Izo is by no means a pushover. Nor is he as hard as steal. He, very much like myself, puts up a hard front that he only lets down or lets slip when he's comfortable around those people. Not once, through all of the shit that I put him through while he was helping me with my research did he ever snap like that or look this tiered. It was then and there that I truly felt sympathy truly ever go out to someone.
"If she's anything like Mai, then she won't stop until she has her way or has no other options." I said, taking out my black note book and a pen to write in the information that we had gathered from Yuuki since there was nothing else for us to really do until the girls came back.
"That's Hana alright." Izo laughed softly. "That's my Hana."
Me: Bleh. I really suck at fighting scenes. Especially since they're in Naru's POV.
Naru: I can't help it if you can't understand the complexity that is my wonderful mind.
Gene: Shut up you idiot scientist.
Naru: Why don't you try to be more educated stupid medium?
Mai: Come on you two, no fighting.
Naru: This doesn't involve you, you stupid idiotic klutz.
Mai: WHAT WAS THAT YOU COLD HEARTED, INSECURE, WORK-A-HOLIC, TEA ADDICTED, SELF CENTERED, NARSSISCEST? *Chases Naru around with a battle ax"
Me: 0.0 … Okay then. As Mai tries to kill Naru, Gene would you like to do the closer?
Gene: Sure. PLEASE EVERYONE REVIEW! IF YOU DO I'LL GIVE YOU ALL A HUG!
