Disclaimer: I do not own Ghost Hunt. Or any manga for that matter. Or any of my favorite movies or books... Now I'm sad.

A/N: Ooh, this is my last update until the ninth of August, such a long way away. Thanks for the reviews, the favorites, and the alerts. Y'all are the best.

Naru: Finally, it's shorter than all the other ones where you just ramble on and on about nothing.

Me: *glares* I'm sure these people will miss me....

Naru: Yeah, sure.

Me: If you want, go check out my friend on FictionPress. Wanting.A. Heart She writes really well. Go review for her. :)

Naru: Yeah why waste your time here?

Me: Shut up Naru. Just for that, I'm not talking to you anymore.

Naru: Ooh, what a pity. *rolls eyes*

Never Let Luella Choose the Amusement Park:

~ St. Patrick's Day Part Two:~

Naru sighed. Why was it that he was always the one stuck with incompetent people? Bou-san was rambling on about how hungry he was while Naru set up some things in the base Mr. Collins had set up for them. Naru sighed rolling his eyes in the process.

"Having Mai-withdrawals?" Bou-san asked, turning to the teenager. Naru froze, mid-step.

"No." He said rather icily. For a moment Bou-san was transported back to their first case at Mai's school. He almost laughed at the memory, he'd been so rude to the kid when they'd met. Naru, of course, had made up for it in the previous years.

"I think you are." Bou-san sang. He received a nasty glare from Naru. "You know, I was surprised that Mai actually went out with you, you know after you told her you didn't like her and disappeared for two months."

Naru winced. Were they back to this subject already? Bou-san ran his fingers through his hair.

"I mean, you could've done it nicely but no, you had to tell her she loved Gene, causing her emotions to conflict and-"

Naru frowned. Why was it he was always mean to the people he loved most? Gene had always been the better person. He was kind, sociable, funny-

'Oh, quit moping.' Gene snapped. 'She loves you regardless of how much of a jerk you are.'

Bou-san looked at him funnily. "What?"

"Nothing." He said gruffly, turning away from the annoying monk.

Bou-san smiled hugely. His smile was immediately replaced by a shocked and horrified look. Naru looked at him bewildered. What exactly had scared the monk so badly?

"What?" Naru asked, setting down one of the monitors on the desk Mr. Collin's had provided.

"S-since when did this amusement park have a girl in a blood covered dress?" Bou-san stuttered. He pointed towards the window, his finger shaking.

Naru spun around, his eyes widening slightly. A little girl was standing in the window her dress billowing in non-existent wind. She smiled grotesquely running her finger over the window. Bou-san let out an audible gasp as letters of blood appeared on the window.

S.C.

"Since now apparently." Naru flipped open his phone and called Lin and he made a mental note to ask Mr. Collins what S.C. meant.

.xXx.

"I don't like that Collins guy." Liz muttered as she and Luella helped Mai take the temperature in the nearest roller coaster station. Mai looked up at Liz, picking up the gauge and walking down the steps.

"Why not?" Luella looked up at the sky which had suddenly gotten dark. "He seems nice enough."

Liz shrugged. "Just a hunch."

She looked up at the massive roller coaster, it had surprisingly begun to rain. Droplets of water hit her face as she stared at the tallest point in the roller coaster. She was about to turn around and leave when something's thoughts ran through hers. A chill ran up her spine, a little girl's voice full of such hatred was uncommon for Liz to hear.

Alice was pushed, Alice fell, Alice broke, Alice wants revenge. S.C. will break just like Alice.

Liz looked around for the source of the voice but nothing came. Mai looked at her bewildered as to what exactly the mind-reader had heard. They both turned towards the roller coaster again and Liz's heart caught in her throat, someone had jumped from the highest point of the roller coaster. Mai and Luella screamed as the body hit the ground with a loud snap. Liz blinked, suppressing her scream just in time to hear the word: S.C. again. What that meant, she didn't know.

"What just happened?" Luella said shakily as the body faded into nothing.

Mai took a shaky breath. "I think we just saw Mr. Collins' ghost."

.xXx.

Lin paused, listening to Naru's instructions. Apparently, there was a little girl in a white dress walking around and he was to ask Mr. Collins about it and the initials S.C. Lin closed his phone after Naru had rudely hung up on him. Something about his mother and Mai getting into trouble. Lin raised his eyebrows, hadn't Liz been with Luella and Mai? He wouldn't be surprised if Liz had gotten herself into trouble too. She usually did.

"What's up Lin?" Martin walked behind him, sitting down beside him. "I think I heard my wife scream, should I be concerned?"

Lin shook his head and stood up. "No, but I'm going to have to talk with Mr. Collins. Stay here and don't touch anything."

Martin sighed and tried to look hurt. "Fine, I won't touch anything. So if anything breaks, it wasn't my fault!"

Lin sighed, moving to open the door when Mr. Collins himself walked through. He looked nervous, his skin was a pasty white, his eyes were bloodshot and he bit his nails.

"So-something ha-happened di-didn't it?" He stuttered, he took a deep breath and calmed his nerves. "I heard a scream."

Lin shook his head. "Nothing happened. Mai, Luella and Liz just saw your ghost. Now, what does S.C. mean?"

Mr. Collins froze. "Where did you hear that?"

"Naru saw it being written on the wall with blood. A little girl in a white dress was outside a window."

Mr. Collins buried his face in his hands. He looked up at Lin, wanting more information. "Do you know what her name is?"

Lin shook his head but the door flew open and Liz walked in.

"Mai and Luella are with Naru and Bou-san, they're looking at the roller coaster." Liz explained to Martin. She turned to Mr. Collins, she knew he was hiding something. Liz froze, it suddenly clicked. Samuel Collins. S.C. Why hadn't she thought of this before? Samuel Collins had pushed Alice off the roller coaster. "Her name was Alice."

Mr. Collins winced. "Alice Crane." He took a steadying breath. "She was pushed off the roller coaster four years ago by her mother, Sarah Crane."

"That would explain the initials, S.C." Lin nodded, his story checking out.

Liz frowned. "It can't be as simple as that. Why would her mother push her daughter off a roller coaster?"

Mr. Collins looked at her firmly. "Because, she was mentally unstable. She and her daughter came here on a regular basis, I think I would know my customers by then."

Liz narrowed her eyes, she still didn't trust the man.

.xXx.

Naru listened to Lin's explanation with mild interest. He realized that this wasn't going to be as simple as exorcising the girl, obviously she wanted revenge according to what Liz had told him. He rested his chin on his hand, maybe there was a way to see if Mr. Collins was telling the truth.

"Lin." Naru interrupted him. "Go check the medical records for Sarah Crane, I want a full report on her medical conditions. I also want one on her daughter Alice."

"Okay." Lin went to his computer, turning it on. "Anything else?"

"Check the newspapers for any news on the subject and the death records for the cause of death for Alice." Naru looked up at Lin, telling him to start looking. Naru turned to Mai and stared at her. "Mai, I want you to sleep."

Mai began to protest but he cut her off with an impatient glare. She sighed, frustrated and leaned on the couch.

"You know, I'm not a dog. You can't keep telling me to sleep when I'm not tired!" Mai argued. She stared at the ceiling, wanting nothing more than to help Ayako or Bou-san with temperature and things.

Naru looked at Mai and smirked at her. "You know, every time you say 'I'm not tired' you fall-" Naru stopped when he realized Mai had already fallen asleep. "right asleep."

He threw a blanket over her and went to stand by Lin, who was having surprising difficulties finding those medical records.

.xXx.

John walked down the hallways of one of the fun houses when he realized that the room had gotten surprisingly colder. Masako, who had insisted on going with him just in case, gripped his arm. He narrowed his eyes when the other end of the hallway had gotten dark. Masako was practically cutting off the circulation in his arm as the lights flicked on, the walls dripping with red.

John began to say the Lord's Prayer but he stopped in amazement as the girl approached them, slowly.

"Why did you stop?!" Masako screamed.

John squeezed her hand. "She won't hurt us."

For some reason he believed that fully. "She wants revenge on her mother, not us."

The little girl glared at John and that feeling was gone. She shook her head and wrote S.C. on the wall again, she glared again not getting the expression she wanted. She wrote Alice on the wall and waited impatiently for them to realize what she was trying to tell them.

"Your mother?" Masako asked. "Sarah Crane? She pushed you off the roller coaster."

Alice opened her mouth to say something but she faded, leaving a mess in the hallways.

.xXx.

"I'm telling you he did it." Liz ran her fingers through her hair. "It's the only thing that makes sense."

Naru shook his head. "Look, Sarah Crane was mentally unstable, she pushed her daughter off the roller coaster and now Alice is stuck here. That's also a solution. You can't just automatically assume Mr. Collins did it."

Liz pressed her lips together, fighting back a sharp remark. "Look." She looked at her nephew. "You've been wrong before. I just don't see a mother pushing her daughter off a moving roller coaster. I think you've gotten it wrong."

Naru glared at his aunt. "I think you're being paranoid. Once Mai tells me her dream we can get out of here and go home."

Liz rolled her eyes. "When have I ever been paranoid?"

Naru held up one finger. "Well there was the time when Mom told me when you were little you thought the stars were watching us and were planning our demise." He held up another finger. "Then when Gene and I were little you told us that the cookies Aunt Ellen made were full of bugs and dirt." He held up a third finger. "When Gene and I were ten you freaked out and said the ice cream man was going to come and get us." He held up a fourth finger. "Then the pizza man-"

"Okay!" Liz interrupted. "I get it, I get it. But what about the fact that there are no medical records of Alice and Sarah Crane on the computer? Why aren't there any marriage or divorce papers or biopsy reports or-"

"Why are you covered in blood?!" Ayako and Madoka screamed, interrupting her ranting. Naru looked up to see John and Masako, their clothes bloody.

"We slipped." John looked at Masako apologetically. "Alice appeared in the hallways in front of us and well it seems Masako doesn't have the best balance."

"Did she attack you?" Bou-san asked.

John shook his head. "No, she didn't. She was trying to tell us something though."

"Like the fact that Mr. Collins killed her?" Liz asked, receiving a glare from Naru.

"You think Mr. Collins did it?" John asked.

Liz nodded. "But Mr. I'm-always-right, doesn't think so."

Masako looked at Liz funnily. "What do you have to back up that theory?"

Naru raised his eyebrows, waiting for Liz's answer. Liz hesitated for a second, realizing that she had no evidence to back up her theory except the initials.

"Samuel Collins has the initials S.C. as well." Liz hesitated for a moment before continuing, knowing that Naru wouldn't agree with her lack of evidence. "And-and Mai has had less evidence than I and you've believed her."

Naru raised his eyebrows and Mr. Collins walked in.

"Mrs. Liz, is it true you think I killed Alice Crane?" Mr. Collins looked bemused at the thought. "Might I ask why you would think something like that?"

A chill went up Liz's spine, his gaze was really freaky. "Be-because," Her 'he's-dangerous' senses going off the hook. "I just know."

He smiled chillingly. "I can assure all of you, I would never hurt one of my own customers especially Alice Crane."

Naru gave her a look as if to say 'I told you so' and he walked off. Liz, however, wasn't comforted by the look. She took one look at Samuel Collins and bolted out of the room, she wasn't staying anywhere near that man.

.xXx.

Naru looked around and noticed Mai wasn't on the couch anymore, he leaned out the window to see her sleepwalking up the roller coaster maintenance ladder. He swore under his breath and bolted out the door. Liz and Lin following closely behind. Bou-san and Ayako followed as well after they looked out the window.

"What's going on?" Martin asked Luella, who was standing there with a plate of tea, looking rejected.

"I don't know." Luella smiled nonetheless. "Want some tea?"

.xXx.

Naru got to the edge of the roller coaster first. He stared at the towering hight of it and his heart sunk at the thought of Mai reenacting what had happened here. Liz looked like she was going to throw up.

"What?" Naru said, halfheartedly. "Do I want to know?"

"Stand-"

A high pitched scream rang through the air as Mai fell off the edge, she gripped onto the side, having woken up just in time. She clutched the edge of the roller coaster and held on for dear life. It began to creak and Mai was slowly being shaken off, she was crying.

"MAI!" Naru yelled. "Just hang on!"

Then she fell.

Conversations with Naru:

Naru: I see you decided to change the title back.

Me: I didn't know you felt so strongly about it.

Naru: I don't.

Me: Okay, whatever you say. NOW it's time for my favorite Naru-ism.

Naru: Naru-ism?

Me: Yep, the funniest thing you ever said in the anime according to me.

Naru: What would that be?

Me: There's a door. It's blocked.

Naru: How exactly is that funny?

Me: Anyone with eyes could've told you it was blocked. But no you had to state the obvious.

Naru: ...

Me: Hey Naru! There's a door!

Naru: Oka-

Me: IT'S BLOCKED.

I really do think that was the funniest thing he's said. If you think about it, that's kinda sad: "There's a door. It's blocked." was the funniest thing Naru ever said. sad really.

Review and tell me your favorite Naru-ism and I'll try to put one in the Conversations with Naru's. It doesn't have to be funny. It could be your favorite quote. OR if you want, it could be from any character.

Naru: Great so I have to listen to all your Naru-ism's?

Me: Yes. Yes you do. Now, be quiet and smile or I'll turn the title back to Conversations with Bou-san.

Naru: ....
