Ayako lazily pushed open the base door rubbing her temples.
"Is she okay?" Monk's voice was timid and concerned. Ayako nodded her head.
"She should be fine, she was in shock." She looked to the others in the room they all sat in crumpled balls, well everyone except Naru and Lin, though Lin still looked dejected.
"What do we do now?" John voiced the question making it apparent that they couldn't just sit around now. Going to bed wasn't an option either seeing as they all were now in a restless state. Most couldn't sit quite still, having to fidget. "And what are we going to do about Baku?" This made some of the team freeze just now remembering why they had all awoken at the late hour of 2:00 am. Some looked over to the unconscious boy who was breathing softly.
"Maybe we should exercise him?" Monk rubbed the back of his head, his voice having a confused tone to it.
"That won't be necessary." Naru's monotone voice echoed around the room.
"What! Why not, I don't know about you Naru, but he sure looked pretty possessed when I saw him on top of Mai." Ayako yelled. Naru's hand clenched as the memory of that boy on top of Mai, for some reason he had held himself back from running over to the boy beating him senseless. Naru's mind flashed pictures of Mai's terrified face and tear stained cheeks. He sighed and tried to keep calm.
"Because Ms. Matzusaki he was never possessed at all." Ayako spluttered trying to spit out words in protest until she was interrupted by Masako, her kimono sleeve covering her mouth and nose as per usual.
"Naru's right had he been possessed I would have known it, though he did have an imprint of the ghost in his aura." Naru slightly nodded his head looking back down at his file though he didn't need it anymore he figured out what was going on already he just needed to make sure he was right, even if knew he was ultimately right.
"That reminds me, why the hell were you two still sleeping." Monk shot an accusing glance at Ayako.
"Don't look at me like that you old man I don't know why."
"Who you calling old man, if I'm correct your the oldest here you old hag. I bet that's why you didn't get up because you wanted more 'Beauty sleep.' Because we all know how much you need of that." Monk's voice grew over time his voice coming to a icy shout that surprised some in the room.
"Now, now guys were all scared, tired and worried, but we shouldn't be taking it out on each other," John spoke quietly trying to calm the starting fire. Ryan sighed, his hand obscuring most of his face muffling his voice.
"He's right there's no point in shouting pointless words at each other. It's not going to change what happened, all we can hope now is that we can keep anything like that from happening again." The group nodded save Naru and Lin.
"So big boss-"
"Owwww." A low whine came from the door where a crumpled Mai sat in the opening rubbing her throbbing head.
"Mai." "Mai..Are you okay?" "Mai you shouldn't be up yet." The comments were flung her way just going through one ear and right out the other as she shakily stood up pushing the entourage of people away from her form and looking up at Naru. He had taking a liking to the file in front of him again ignoring the nonsense. Only looking up slightly when it quieted. Mai had sat down right in front of him waiting for him to look up. He sighed.
"Yes, Mai what is it?" He had his eyes trained on the file rereading the same sentence over and over again waiting for Mai to speak.
"I..think we were lured here." Mai voice though low and weak rang loudly through the room. Naru's eyes had stopped moving and had widen slightly and his head had tilted to finally look into her eyes.
"And why in the world would you think that Mai." Though Naru had figured that since the attack earlier, he had pieced together the puzzle fitting each piece in their rightful.
"Well I...don'-...well the dream I had earlier, I don't know Naru I just think that we were." Mai watched Naru smirk but it went as fast as it came. The team watched as Naru raised himself from his seat and looked at the team.
"Everyone go to bed..Even you Lin I will be as well, tomorrow we will finish this case." The team stared in shock as he walked across the room his gait steady and final. No one argued to Mai's surprise, she watched as the team filed out of the room leaving only her and Lin who was watching the door where everyone had just left. Mai watched him get up and sigh and the look to her. He walked closer lying a pat on Mai's head rustling her hair.
"Don't worry I'm sure he's fine." She looked up at him with concerned eyes, only to see him smiling down at her which made her wounder if she was dreaming, but if so it would most likely be Naru the one doing this not Lin. She just nodded her head and looked back down to her bare feet. "Come on Mai time for bed." He walked towards the door and stopped once getting to the entrance waiting for Mai. She hurriedly made her way to him and walked out the base door as he held it for her. She then made her way to her room Lin following close behind seeing as the boy's room was across the hall from the girl's.
Mai tossed and turned in her bed not able to find a comfy spot on the bed. The plush pillow under her head felt to soft and the sheets to warm. She wonder if anyone else was lying awake like her right now. She sighed again and slid off the bed tip-toeing to the door and opening it. She then made her down the to the kitchen where she could get herself a glass of water.
When she finally made it she let the breath she was holding back out. She then filled a glass with water and made her way out of the kitchen back to her room or she was until she was grabbed from behind her mouth and nose being covered by one hand, another around her waist. She squirmed throwing her arms in all directions the glass falling from her hand and fell to the floor smashing into sharp shards mixing with the water.
She tired to kick her capture but her feet couldn't find him or her. She had the sinking feeling it was a guy and that it was one of her friends.
"Stop squirming, you'll just make this harder on yourself." Mai froze though to voice was mixed with evil she knew who it was.
"Naru." She whispered quietly tears dripping down her cheeks. He laughed quietly tainted innocence coming with it.
"Yes and no, yes this is your little friends body, but no this isn't him talking to you." He whispered in her ear making her shiver. She had long ago given up on getting away. She hoped that somehow Naru would break through the possession and save her.
It was quiet as they traveled down the hall, it was to dark for Mai to pin point where they were but most likely somewhere on the first floor seeing as they hadn't gone up or down any stairs. She felt them come to a stop looking up she say a door open without either of them touching it.
A gasp escaped her lips as she saw the room. Candles were lit around the room illuminating the blood red walls. The bed looked like moving blood red waves with the flickering coming from the candles. She struggled more now understanding what was going on.
"Don't worry Suki we'll be together soon." She thrashed some more, but to no avail. Kin/Naru laid her on the bed straddling her, holding her arms above her head with one hand his other traveling like silk down her body, caressing softly. Mai watched as Naru's face contorted into a pleasured smirk, that just didn't fit on his face, like it wasn't his own. He then leaned his head down to her neck taking in scent.
"Even if the body it different the essences is still the same." Kin/Naru sighed out. He then brought his other hand up and ripped the front of Mai's shirt exposing Mai to the world. Mai through out the torture kept her head turned to the side not wanting to watch what was to come next. "Keep your eyes on me girl." He hissed grabbing her chin making her look into Naru's dark as night blue eyes that she loved so dearly. He smiled and then continued on with defiling the young girl. Trialing kisses up her stomach, his kisses leaving behind icy imprints that made Mai whimper in disgust. His head lifted back , his eyes connecting with her's again. She saw a flicker in them that suddenly became her flicker of hope in the darkness of the room.
I saw Naru's face contort into one of anger as his grip on her forearms tighten, making her squeak in pain."Shut up." He growled. He squeezed harder closing his eyes tight. Her squeaks became whimpers.
"I said shut up you impudent girl it seems he has a stronger will when he hears you in pain." His voice was gruff and hard and his statement made Mai fight harder hoping it would help. Then all of a sudden Naru's body went limp falling right on top of her. She stopped struggling then letting her body relax that is until she felt another presences in the room. It wasn't human nor was it good, the presence made the room tense and electrifying but not in a good way.
She swerved her head and maneuvered her body slightly under Naru's unconscious body to find the source of the rather uncomfortable feeling. What her eyes met made her body tense in fear. Not only ten feet away from the bed where her and Naru lay was Kin in all his ghostly glory. His eyes burned like fire from hell and his form was a pale white color that made him look all the more sinister.
"Hmmm it seems that this has become more fitting for me then it is for you it seems dear." He came closer caressing my cheek with his transparent hand leaving a stinging cold sensation across her cheek.
She struggled to move her body a far away from his form as possible. "Oh dear you seem frightened of me, now, now that just won't do now will it. Seeing as you will be staying with me for a long time." She tensed but then felt something strange, it felt like Naru's hand that had fallen under him was moving across her stomach slowly as if trying to be unnoticed. Her breathing began ragged her cheeks heating up. He pressed his hand slightly into her stomach telling her to act normal. She breathed in deeply trying to calm her cheeks.
Gosh his hand against my stomach feels so goo- Woah Mai stop we have to get rid of the ghost first then you can think about Naru all you want.
She averted her eyes back to Kin making him smile lightly. "That's it my dear don't be afraid to look at your lover." He cooed her gentle as if trying to coaxes a kitten out of its hiding spot. She tried to keep her breathing even and her eyes trained on the ugly form in front of her. As odd as it sounded the man that lead an underground prostitute ring, so to speak, was this man.
He had a balding head of brown hair and was on the rather large side. His eye color was unreadable seeing as his ghostly form wouldn't let it show. She shook as she felt a shock of electricity rack around her. Mai's eyes widen as she understood what was going on.
"NO NARU DON-" It was to late he already had his hand out in front of them both a glowing light coming outwards from it. And then just like that it was over, the ghost was gone, the room silent, and Naru was lying still his skin growing colder by the second.
The room was then filled with Mai's screams. The team who was now making there way to the room where Mai was felt a shiver run through them when they heard the agonizing screams. Their legs pumped harder the burning in their lungs numbed by the panic of the situation. Once at the door Lin made no hesitation to knock it down.
The scene in front of them horrified and shocked them all.
Mai was under Naru's body struggling to shake his body awake. Tear streaked down her face, the front of her shirt ripped open and her hair was sticking on ends. The circles under her eyes made it evident that sleep had invade her during the case. Next their eyes landed on Naru's black pajama clad body. The skin they could see was deathly pale and his face looking quiet lifeless. Lin practically vaulted himself at them strategically picking up Naru in his arms. He called out to one of them to call police and an ambulance. Yasu quickly cursed and fumbled for his phone shakily dialing the numbers while the other rushed to do something Ryan quickly made his way to Mai taking off his shirt and throwing it over her head to cover her up and then wrapped his arms around her. He felt her struggle slightly trying to turn around to get a look at Naru, but he wouldn't let her.
She doesn't need to watch him die...
Even as he thought it he still couldn't comprehend the thought of the older boy dieing it seemed almost unrealistic. But he was watching it play out in front of him and it seem to become clearer to him as EMTs ran in with a stretcher. Ryan watched as they rolled Naru away from the room Lin following close behind, Lin sent Ryan a look telling him to keep Mai safe. He only nodded back and held her tighter.
He then followed the others out of the room and to the car where they would drive to the hospital.
Everything had seemed like a blur in the car to Mai and only became clear once entering the hospital. Spotting Lin in one the uncomfortable chairs in the emergency waiting area. She lifelessly walked to the chair next to him and sat down not listening to the chatter and hum of sounds around her. The only thing passing through her mind was Naru. His midnight blue, black eyes. His seemingly soft pale skin that if you looked close enough would notice there was just a slight tan. His once in a rare time smile and then of course that incredibly sexy smirk of his that always ruffled her feathers when used with one of his many rude narcissistic comments. It seemed as if her whole world revolved around him and that just might be so. But she also couldn't forget if it wasn't for him she would have never met the wonderful family she had now he also being apart of it. She knew if he died her world ultimately fall apart. And that's what scared her the most well next to losing him it was.
She snapped out of her deep thoughts though when she heard the ER doors open. A grimed face doctor came out his eye glazed over with a steady emotional hold.
"Family of Shibuya Kazuya." Lin stood himself up waiting for the enviable.
"I'm sorry." Was all the doctor had to say for Mai's heart to start pounding. Her eyes grew wide and more tears spilled down her cheek, her hand formed fist her finger digging hard into her skin.
"No." Was all she said and then she stood up and rushed for the ER doors dodging out of reach of the doctor trying to grab her.
"No wait miss-" She didn't care, all Mai knew right now was that she had to see him and wake him up. Somehow deep down she knew he couldn't just die, not like that, not by some wimpy ass ghost. As she ran down the hall as she dodged other doctors and nurses trying to catch her. She blindly searched the halls looking for him and followed her instinct. And just like that she found his room. Opening the door she saw him hooked up to a heart machine the monitor showing a flat line. There was also an IV hooked up to his arm and there was a nurse tending to the other machines in the room. She looked up startled by the surprised entrance and hurried to press to call button, but it was not needed seeing as the doctors and nurses chasing her were now standing in the door anyway reaching out and grabbing for the girl.
"NO Naru! NARUUUU! Wake up DON'T You dare Die on Me. Naru." Her voice was groggy from tears, but still resounded around the room. She struggled and kept yelling trying to get out of reach of the hands trying to grab her.
"Wait, look to heart monitor it's going." All stopped a stared at the monitor and watched in aw as the beeps coming from the machine became stronger and louder.
"H-how." The doctor to the right of her sounded amazed and looked down to the young girl a look of shock in his eyes. Mai couldn't help but smile as the beeps reached her awaiting ears. Naru then stirred slightly making the doctors and nurse gasp once again.
His eyes opened slightly and searched the room til they found Mai. But before anything could be said she was yanked from behind to be pulled out. She fought against the force looking back up into Naru's eyes. "Go, I'll be fine...I promise." He mouthed she begrudgingly nodded and let the nurse drag her away from the room and back down the hall to the doors of the ER where the team stood still stunned by her actions. When they saw her they opened their mouths to speak but were interpreted by Mai's own weak voice.
"H-he's alive." then her whole world twisted making things turn upside down before going black.
