Okay.. one thing first... sadly I don't own Ghost Hunt... or the story would go like this and of course, Naru and Mai would be together in the anime too :D Okay... I know this one is short.. but please hang in with me there, tomorrow I've made you an EXTRA long chapter ^_^ So please enjoy.. and if you do, review me! and if you don't.. review me and tell me the reason why or don't bother ;D File 8. Twice the Hauntings. Mai stared at the girls, who stared back, everyone was now looking between them and then the woman desided that she'd break the tension "girls.. have you met her before?" they shook their heads, but Mai knew better "t-that's the woman.. from my dream" the oldest thought and Mai raised an eyebrow "I thought she really was dead.." the youngest thought, now both eyebrows went high, but she turned away and smiled to the clients. Madoka walked up to the desk, stopped and turned as the SPR team sat down on the vacant couches "this Tsukashiwa Katsuko and Rachel, they run this hospital and has been under the impression that something is very wrong, the patients keep saying that they see a little girl in the halls etc etc.. and.." she looked at the man who stood up "well, as she said my name is Katsuko, many of my patiens keep saying that they wake up in a room where the walls are stained with blood and that the floor is filled with blood, up to one inch high, and the girl..." Mai and the rest nodded, Lin was typing away on his laptop as usual and Naru was just as serious as he could muster. "Mai" Naru suddenly said and she nodded "have either of you ever seen or been in the situation where you could feel something off?" she asked, Rachel stepped forward and nodded "yes, both actually.. well.." Mai walked over and placed a hand on her upper arm, she might have thought that it was for reassurance, but the SPR team knew otherwise. Mai let go of her seconds later and turned to Naru, her eyes deathly serious, Rachel blinked and looked at the woman, not really understanding what happened, the two girls though, had their eyes on Mai the whole time. The rest went by quickly, then Naru ordered the rest of the team to carry equipment, Mai and him was shown to the base, luckily they had desided to have bedrooms in that building, as well as their base, seeing that it might be dangerous. "The nearest toilet is on the floor under, there's also a small cafeteria here that you are free to use.." they excused themselves and left, except, the girls. The youngest walked up to Mai and stared up at her "what's your name?" she asked, Naru glared and Mai ignored him "Taniyama Mai.. you?" "Tsukashiwa Natalie and that's my sister Toane-neechan" she smiled and Mai smiled back "nice to meet you.." she stated and Toane came up to her "so... are you really her?" Mai blinked "who?" "angel-sama of course!" Natalie said and Mai gawked "your becoming famous Mai!" Naru asked, Mai turned and glared, then she looked back at the girls "well... that is a name I use.." Natalie smiled "thank god.. then you can.." her voice faded when she noticed the look she got from Toane and she backed off, Mai frowned when she read the oldest girls thoughts "why can't she ever keep her mouth shut.. I've told her to approach the woman, Taniyama-san when she's alone!" Mai raised an eyebrow "it is okay you know.. he knows about me and I would tell him anything!" Toane stared in shock at her "w-what?" Mai smiled "I'm just saying that you can trust us.. both!" There was a long silence before Mai broke it "anyway, not to offend you, but are you two blood-related?" Toane laughed "we're twin's,, we hear that a lot" Mai nodded, a blush colouring her cheeks. "Mai.. can you sheck them?" Naru asked and Mai nodded "that is.. if it's okay with you..?" she looked at the two girls, who looked at each other and nodded back to Mai, who smiled and lifted her right hand "then I'll start with Toane-san!" Toane blushed when Mai said her name with such a sufix, but she took Mai's hand and only seconds later Mai let go, looking like she had burnt herself and smiled, but it was fake "Natalie-san!" the girl nodded and also took her hand as Toane backed off, Mai gasped when her hand locked with Natalie's and she quickly let go. The girls looked at each other as Mai gave Naru a pointed look. Naru seemed to know what was going on, he sat down and took up his little book, ready to write it, suddenly Rachel came in "are the girls helping you with something?" she asked, the girls shook their heads as Naru looked at the female doctor "no.." "then.. can you come with me, we have something to do!" the girls looked at Mai one more time before they left. "Mai?" Naru asked when the door was closed "what did you see?" Mai stared back at him "I'm not really sure.. somehow I got the feeling they're not so different from me.. yet.." she fell silent and Naru raised an eyebrow "what do you mean.. like, similar in what?" "I don't know.. powers perhaps, but I can't tell, they don't seem to be aware of it themselves either!" Mai explained and looked down to the floor. "Mai, are they also?" "Oliver.. I don't know... but what I do know is that they don't and I think they are a little more similar to you and Gene!" she stated and Naru's eyes widened "similar.. how?" Mai sighed "well, the fact that you had to have Gene around you to be able to control your powers, I think they are the same.. like, Toane-san is like you and Natalie-san is like Gene.. I think.." she tried and he frowned. "It's the first time I've ever heard of someone like us.. as you know, we where different.. even from the other's with such powers as these" Naru explained and Mai nodded, then she smiled and took his hand "it's okay.. but, before you knew, how did you manage when you couldn't control.." her voice faded and suddenly her whole face showed shock and horror, Naru's face showed only shock "Oliver, can it be.." Naru nodded as the rest of the team began to walk into the base. "They can be!" he stated and Mai paled "oh.." then she jolted and her consciousness disappeared. Mai walked down the hall "where am I?" she thought, suddenly she heard something "children.. wait, someone's crying.. a baby?" she stopped and listened, true, down the hall she could hear a baby, no wait, more than one baby crying and Mai began to run down the hall, she entered another plain white room and saw two mini-bed's in the middle of the room, she didn't go any closer because of that woman standing before the bed's. The woman could be around 30 years old, but her hair was long and grey, her eyes tired and her skin was also greyish, she had a hand placed on both bed's and something that looked like thorns where sticking out of her sides and forehead, Mai gasped "it can't be.." she whispered as the woman turned into fine ash on the floor, the babies cried harder as Mai watched a man step into view and she nearly screamed "he is.." the man turned into something that could remind her of a beast, with wings, horns and everything that would justify to a beast at least. He was smiling with this sick, evil smile as he reached out for the babies when something lashed out and cut him. Mai watched the beast being cut to what a normal human being would be killed by, but she knew better "that.. h-he is that demon!" she thought and glared at him, lucky him though, he couldn't see or feel her, since she was from the future. "Wait.." Mai whispered as the scene faded as she heard another voice, but it didn't belong to the sight before her and she understood where it came from "already? I don't want to yet!" she shrieked and tried to focus, but failed. "Mai.." Mai groaned and turned her head away from the source, she was really irritated now and she did NOT want to wake up. "Mai!" the person that owned the voice shook her and she opened her eyes with a gasp, then "N.A.R.U!" she said, everyone else in the room backed away from her, except Naru, who was mildly nervous and a little worried about what he had just done. "Mai?" he asked, kind of repeating her and she sat up, her eyes stuck to Naru like a leech as she got up from a couch "why you.." she hissed as she walked closet to the man who was obviously VERY nervous and sweating "what?" Naru asked, just barely since he was afraid he might have done something very stupid, then she exploded and everyone except Naru evaded her by running out of the room and hiding themselves, they could heard the angry shout from Mai as they rushed down the hall, something along the way of being an incompetent idiot, a jerk who always ruins the best etc etc, and for not realising her needs and wishes. Non of them wanted to be in Naru's shoes right now and truth to be told, Naru didn't want to be himself either. No one dared to come back before they knew it was silent, wich was nearly an hour after, when they came back though, Mai wasn't there and neither was Naru, Bou smirked to himself and gave Ayako a 'I know where they are' look and they both snickered, Masako gave them a pointed look while Lin just sighed and walked over to unpack the equipment and set up the screens, John smiled of it all and went over to help Lin, soon, Bou and Ayako was fighting like usual, Masako was sitting on one of the chairs while John was running between setting up equipment and trying to calm down the monk and the miko. After half an hour Mai entered, Naru came after and closed the door "so you finally returned?" Bou stated with a smirk and watched Mai blush. Naru's typical glare made them all stop their intention to ask Mai where they had been and what they where doing, Mai smiled nervously and Lin completely ignored them "Mai, go with Brown-san, Bou-san and set up camera's" Naru told the woman who sighed, but nodded never the less. "Mai-chan~" Bou sang as they had exited the building beside the main part of the hospitale "what?" she asked and looked at him over her shoulder, he smirked and leaned in "so, what where you two doing back there?" he asked and Mai blushed, then she turned away "does that matter at all.. we where talking though.. just so you know" she skipped along the road towards the main building before John opened the door for her and they walked inside. "Just talking?" Bou repeated and Mai heated up "y-yeah.. about that.. why?" John looked down at the paper he had been handed to by Naru and stopped, Mai sat down a camera in the hall and Bou let out a small snicker "then.. no kissing?" he asked and knew he had scored bingo by Mai's red face "what if we did?" she tried to sound somewhat proud and annoyed, but failed and blushed deeply "hehe.." Bou let out a dark chuckle. They started to work again and Mai tried not to let out any strangled sounds, Bou saw this and frowned "Mai-chan?" she didn't look at him and he sighed "is there something wrong with this place?" she nodded and he frowned even more. In fact, Mai looked like she wanted to puke or something, she even looked like she was in pain at one moment, but that disappeared. "There's blood everywhere" Mai stated after some minutes of silence, both men stopped what they where doing and looked at her "what?" Bou asked while John nearly dropped the camera he was holding in shock "there's no blood here Mai-san.." "that's not it.. I doubt you can see it.. I can, it's hideous.. and so.." she gasped and ran out of the room, her intention was to escape the horrid scenery and smell, but when she exited the room they currently was in, she let out a shocked, somewhat strangled shriek. Bou and John came out of the room seconds later, alerted by her shriek and both gawked at what they saw, before them, on the wall there was written several letters on a strange language and it was seemingly written in blood. Les filles ont échoué, maintenant ils doivent payer.
