*Runs around in circles like a little kid, waving a piece of paper in the air* YAY! YAY! YAY! YAAAAAAY! Guess what? guess what? guess what? GUESS WHAT? I just bought the rights to Ghost Hunt and I'm going to make Naru and Mai together forever! WEEEEEEE!
*People in black suits from first disclaimer come into scene and take away the paper. They look at the girl and say, "sorry to disapoint you, but when buying the rights to a Manga they most likely will not write it in crayon,"*
*looks at sheet of paper* But, but it says right here, bought at the pawn shop of Shibuya, and it has Fuyumi's (I think that's the writers name) signature right here.
*People look at the paper and sweat drop, "Sorry to inform you again, but would a japanese dot their I with a heart?"*
*Looks at paper again* SH** I was swindled! I want my $7.50 back.
Lin had to carry Mai back to base. She wouldn't move or talk to anyone. Instead she just sat there, her eyes dull, holding onto Kyan. The child knew his mother was distraught and did not say anything, only held back.
Naru and Lin went through all the cameras, not seeing anything. Bou, Ayako, John, and Yasuhara all looked at the blue prints, trying to figure out where the ghost could have taken the little girl. Everyone felt rushed and the panic settled into the room.
Every once in a while Naru would look over at the young mother. His eyes would soften when he saw her in the state she was in and in his heart he truly just wanted to blast away the whole building to find the child. He hated how Mai had gone into a comatose like state. She would breath in as fast as lightning, but exhale like she had limited oxygen. In her mind she kept thinking about what that ghost might be doing with her young Ren.
"Do you think maybe there is something under the building, like a basement that was concreted up long ago?" Bou asked the group at the table.
"I don't think so, even earlier reports showed this house to have been built strait on the concrete," Yasuhara pulled out the notes he had taken on the house. "I guess I could go through the notes on the houses construction again,"
"That would be a great idea Yasuhara," Ayako clapped her hands together with a smile on her face. But as soon as she turned to the worried mother on the couch, her smile fell. She walked over to Mai and pulled a chair up to sit right in front of her. "Mai, sweety, what did you see?"
Naru turned instantly at what the miko said, "Matsusaki, are you saying that Taniyama had a dream?"
Ayako shook her head, not letting her gaze move from the frozen girl. She felt so horrible, like it was one of her own relatives that had been taken. Ayako didn't even notice Naru pull up a chair next to her. He took out his black book and looked at the mother in pain.
"Taniyama, I need you to tell me what you saw in your dream." He spoke in the most gentle voice he could muster though Mai did not move. She didn't even bat an eyelash. Naru sighed then lifted her chin up to meet his face with his hand, "Mai, I need you to tell me what you saw,"
Mai snapped. Tears poured down her face though anger was transparent as her emotion. She hit Naru's hand away and stood, still holding Kyan in her arms. "You narcissistic, tea loving, cold hearted, idiot scientist, jerk!"
Everyone's, including Lin's, heads snapped towards where Mai now towered over Naru. Ayako scooted back in her seat to get away from the angry girl. No one in the room had heard Mai use the tone of voice she was using now.
"All you care about is the case and your pride! And if you don't finish the case then your pride is hurt! Even when MY daughter is missing you can't help but think about finishing up the case! It's always about what information others can give you, no matter what state they're in! How would you feel if it was your daughter? Huh? You may be a doctor and know everything in the knowledge based world, Oliver, but you still have yet to know how to treat someone with kindness!"
The lights began to flicker. Lin's head looked from Mai to Naru. The said man was sitting in his chair, his fingers grasping his knees tightly and head bent low. An ominous aura emitted from his body and his hair began to fly around his head.
"Noll," Lin stepped to Naru's side. "Noll, calm down,"
The lights went out. But nothing else happened. Everyone was frozen when they heard Naru take a deep breath. Mai was still breathing hard from yelling and did not hear the sigh Naru emitted. When the lights flickered back on Naru stood in front of Mai, his eyes showing anger and… something Mai had never seen.
Without saying anything Naru left the room. Everyone was still in shock until Mai turned on them, tears returning to her face. She released Kyan just as she collapsed on the couch again. The young boy walked over to where everyone else was standing and stood on the chair.
"We have to find Ren before Mai has another break down," The group was surprised. This child could act so mature and yet he was just two years of age. No one thought it weird that he had called his mother Mai, no one but Lin.
Lin's eyes narrowed and he picked up the young kid after everyone got back to work. They all watched as the tall Chinese man carried the toddler out of the room.
Once outside Lin set the 'kid' down, "Explain yourself," He spoke very seriously.
'Kyan' tilted his head to the side, "I do not know what you mean,"
"Don't lie to me Gene, I would know that smile anywhere," Lin lost his composure for a second but was able to pick it back up again. The child smiled.
"I knew I should have waited until you left the room too," The kids started passing in front of the omniyouji, "Kyan might have taken a little nap when Mai was shocked, I talked with him a bit and told him to stay where he was standing, coming from the same genes as Mai I wouldn't expect him to stay long, but having the same DNA as the idiot scientist, I knew he'd listen."
"That doesn't give you the right to be taking over a toddlers body, let alone the fact that it is your own brother's child."
"But that's what makes it easier, the child and I share a slight amount of same blood making the possession so much easier,"
"Gene, do you understand what could happen if you stayed in the body for too long?"
"Yes, Lin, I know." Gene made Kyan's head fall down too look away from the grown mans heated gaze, "I just wanted to warn you, well not you, but more Mai,"
"Why didn't you warn her in her dreams?"
"Because," He smoothed his hair away from his head, a very un-child like thing to do, "She probably won't be getting any sleep soon, and I wanted to let her try to find her child,"
"Well then, hurry this up and tell me so that I can pass it on then get out,"
"Ok, ok, I was going to warn Mai about Naru. This ghost knows how to mess with people. You guys must remember all the patterns of what's happened before."
And with that the child fell over. Lin caught the small body and lifted it up. A small movement proved that the original soul had returned to the body.
Lin made his way back into the room to find that Mai was gone. No one had noticed she was gone either when he asked.
"Where could she have gone, especially since Kyan is right here," Ayako wondered, not noticing the little boy scurrying out of the room.
Somewhere on the spring houses premises a young girl lay on the ground. The soul of a kid paced back and forth, hand placed on chin. Something was bothering him.
"Why, why, why?" He stopped and looked at the young girl, "Why can I not kill her?" Gregory placed his hand on the young kids head and then pulled away. Something had zapped him, and he wanted to know what. Why was this kid different from others. It was like she was protected by something.
The young girl began to wake up and looked at her surroundings. She noticed that her mother nor her brother were around her. Fear bit at her heart and she sat up quickly.
"Oka-san!" She called.
The ghost looked at her with a kind face, "Your Oka-san isn't here, but I'm here for you,"
"I want my Oka-san!" Ren cried out again. The water around the two began to bubble and heat up at an intense speed.
Gregory became angry, believing that she may give away their hiding spot. Quickly picking up a rock, he chucked it at her. The piece of matter dissolved as soon as it got close to the now crying kid. He then reached out and tried to slap the weeping child. The same jolt of power shot through his body, pushing him away from the girl.
A thought struck him. This child took after her father, she had power. He could kill everyone here with that power. But he could not kill the girl. The only other person at the spring who could even rival the power she was emitting was that stupid English man.
With a smirk and plot in his head Gregory made his voice as calm as he could, "Ren, I can help you find your Oka-san, but first, you have to be calm and willing."
The brunette child stopped crying and looked at the ghost which hovered above him. Tears still stained her face. But she smiled.
"Would you really do that for me mister ghosty?"
"Yes, yes I would," He smirked viciously. Children were so easy to convince.
Ren shook her head then closed her eyes. She began to breath calmly and think lightly. Gregory felt her calmness and knew it was now or never. He floated towards the girl and reached out his hand. A small tingle hit his skinless exterior, but nothing painful like before. He smiled and slipped into her mind.
"Now," He said to himself, "Let's get this pattern started,"
Mai was furious at Naru and had finally decided that he know that truth. Maybe, just maybe if she told him that Ren was his daughter than he would want to find the young child.
She made her way towards his room, most likely guessing that was where he was, but stopped when she noticed that her room door was open.
Kyan did not follow Mai. Instead he followed the tug that he felt on his heart and made his way to the spring. He still did not know why his mother had been so worried about Ren.
When he reached the springs the young boy stopped. There, wading in the shallow end of the water stood Ren. She turned to look at her brother, red in her eyes.
I wonder what's going to happen? OMG! Kyan! Don't give in!
*cough* Ok, question time, if someone gets this right then i will update before the day is over, here is the question, 'Why is it that Gregory cannot touch or kill Ren without being shocked?' ok, if someone gets the question right i will update again today.
and for all my thank you's... THANK YOU TO ALL MY READERS! And all my reviewers! I love reading the comments! 0.0 They're amazing!
and next, because garnet asked, i shall describe Ren and Kyan better. I tend not to right out describe people in my stories but rather hide the descriptions throughout chapters.
Ren: Ren has brunette hair like Mai that reaches just below her shoulders and falls lightly in her face as her bangs are growing out. Her eyes are a depth less blue just like Naru's (which is why he freaked out when he saw her eyes) Ren is slightly shorter then Kyan but smarter. Her IQ is 155, almost reaching genuineness. Ren takes after Mai with her psychic powers by being able to see things in her dreams. She takes after Naru's powers by having large amounts of PK and not truly knowing how to control it, though John gave her a blessed necklace that lets her somewhat control those powers. Unlike Naru, Ren's body can keep up with her powers.
Kyan: Kyan has brown hair like Mai which is styled much like Naru's (and he still could not tell it was his son). His eyes are almost the same as Ren's but are a lighter shade of blue, much more like Gene's eyes (Naru's eyes when he loved Mai). His IQ is 145, not quite as smart as Ren, but still most than expected. Kyan has yet to show any PK powers but he is able to catch onto people's feelings easily. Kyan is scared because he can feel what other people feel and so tells Ren, letting her take care of it (reason why Ren knew how Mai felt in the first chapter, Mai thought it was Ren's power, but it's actually Kyan's).
Ok, and there are the descriptions, you may get more into the descriptions if I do a second one based around when Mai and Naru are in their late thirties or so... I've also been considering writing how their relationship started and ended before this story so tell me what you think. Do not forget the question I have to be answered :p
