Here you go! Mina's story part two! That explains alot of who she is, and why she acts the way she is! Happy? I certainly hope. :)


Mina is now a cute little 5 year old, and even if she still went to the ninja world every once in a while, she lived outside, soon enough finding out that her house was no ordinary house. She made her little research and found out that the miles around it are some sort of portal, and that the house itself is an old inn. It explained why she had always been close to her house, whether she was at her school in the United States, the orphanage in Canada, or in the ninja world. Take now, she's in Ottawa, walking by the Rideau Canal.

She was walking around and took a look at her tiny hands covered in bandages.

**Beginning of flashback, two days ago**

Mina was sitting on a bench outside her house, under a tree, waiting as her big sister sobbed and looked through a medical kit.

"I'm so sorry what kind of horrible big sister am I?" Kimto said in between sobs.

"It's okay, I won't tell anyone!" Mina said, thinking her sister was scared of being punished for what she did.

Her sister looked at her with big, tears filled green eyes, and started to sob again. She picked up some cream for burns and started to rub it carefully on Mina's burned hands, then started to apply the bandages.

"You think... I'm scared of being yelled at?" she asked between sniffles.

"Well, yeah... I know you hate it when people yell at you for something you didn't mean..." Mina said as if it was the most obvious thing on earth.

Kim jumped to her sister and embraced her tightly was burning tears ran down her cheeks. Mina was startled, her sister never really showed any signs of affection besides frequent taps on the head and her shoulders, and warms smiles, but hugs were something only Yuki, the usually stoic, calm and practically non-emotional girl. Sure Mina enjoyed getting hugged, she always does, but her cousin's hugs sometimes felt cold, while now, Kim's hug is burning through her body. She hugged back, despite the pain soaring through her hands because of the burns she received from her sister's outburst.

"I love you Kimi…" Mina said.

Her sister didn't answer, she never once in her life said that she loved Mina, but instead hugged harder, Mina didn't need Kim to tell her she loved her to know she did.

**End of flashback**

As she kept walking she just had the time to see a man walking towards her and move out of the way, but as soon as she did, she heard the man gasp. She turned to see what was wrong and saw him look at her with disbelief and hope in his eyes.

"You! You see me!" he said just above a whisper. "Oh please tell me you see me!"

"I… I see you yeah…" Mina said, taken aback by the man's actions.

"You hear me too! Thank God I thought I was going insane."

Mina looked around, it was practically midnight, and when she looked closer she realised the man had a big gash on his head.

"Where am I?" the man asked.

"You're in Ottawa sir… Close to the Rideau Canal…" Mina answered. "Would you want me to lead you to the closest police department or hospital?"

"Yes! Yes please!"

Mina walked inside the closest police department she could find and went in with the man. Three police officers were talking, then stopped as soon as they saw the 5 years old. One of them walked up to her, got to her level and asked:

"Hi there little girl! Are you lost sweetie?"

"No… I'm not." she responded, then pointed to the man behind her. "He is."

The police officers looked at her with a mix of doubt and amusement, what it an imaginary friend that this child had?

"Darling, there's no one there… Just you…" the policeman said, trying to sound as sweet as before.

There is a heavy silence between the group, the man seemed in despair and Mina just whispered a 'thank you' and left as quickly as she came, followed by the man who was bombing her with questions:

"What's going on? Why didn't they see me? Where are you going? Are you gonna leave me here?"

He went to grab her by the shoulders, but his hands just went through her body, making the man shriek, and Mina's eyes went wide. Mina remembered reading a book about ghosts and spirits, who could be seen by mediums, was she a medium? It would sure explain a lot of things. She took a deep breath and looked at the panicking man directly in his frightened eyes.

"No…Follow me." she replied with a comforting smile.

They both walked for about half an hour and they soon enough got to Mina's house, and as they walked, Mina turned to the man and started questioning him:

"What's your name and what's your last memory."

"Uh? I'm Elias Marshall, and my last memory… I got in a fight, with a man…" he said while thinking. "He, he knocked me out and I woke up in a cabin, not in the forest nearby… He…"

He fell to the ground, and started putting all the pieces together; his invisibility, the times he should've gotten hurt, but didn't. Mina coughed real quickly and motioned an inn that was a couple of meters away. She walked up to it and opened the door to find Yuki studying for a test she was going to have at school. Yuki looked up and saw her cousin, a tiny smile drawing itself on her face.

"You're home…" she said in a soft voice.

"Yuki… You always watch the news… Has anyone gone missing lately?" Mina asked in a tone, and with as smile as if she was asking for a cookie.

"Yeah… As a matter of fact yes!" Yuki said, now intrigued, although her expression was her usual poker face.

"Who?"

"Elias Marshall." Yuki said, making the man, Elias, swallow hard.

"Okay. He's dead, and I think I know where he is." Mina said.

The next day, Mina, with the help of Elias, led some police officers where the cabin was, and sure enough, Elias' body was there, dead as dust. Mina never saw Elias after that, but she knew he wasn't lost anymore.
