(Lin's POV)

Shortly after we were seated the door opened and in walked both of my brothers and my sister then following after them were my parents. At first my siblings were smiling until they saw Mai siting next to me. I started to wonder why they were here until remembered that every Sunday mother and father hold family dinners. Once everyone was seated at the dinner table, and just as I was going to introduce Mai to them my brother Chen lashed out by saying "What is a person like her doing here, she should not be here."

At his sudden words I pointed at him and said said, "Chen, hold your tongue..." when suddenly I felt a hand on my arm. I looked down and saw Mai looking up at me shaking her head.

I watched as she turned to my mother and asked, "Would it be alright if I say what I told Lin when he told me why he didn't like me?"

My mother smiled and said, "Yes you may.." I could tell my mother was waiting to hear what she was going to say.

With my mothers approval Mai turned and looked at my siblings and smiled. She then began to speak in Chinese, "When I asked your brother why he seemed to hate me he said that it was because I was Japanese. I was flabbergasted by what he said so I looked him in the eyes and said, ""I know what the Japanese did and that Japan did terrible things don't think that I don't. I understand that what they did was wrong, but you know what I can't change what happened so don't blame me for something that happened long before I was ever born. Also don't look down upon me as if I am not responsible just because I am an orphan, I have lived and survived on my own now for five years since my mother passed away. If you want to hate me then hate me for who I am not for things that I have no control over."" As Mai spoke I saw pride begin to shine in her eyes as a tempting smirk began to grace her lips. As I looked at at both of my brothers and my sister I saw that their mouths were hanging open, in shock that she could speak fluent Chinese. Then before I could say any thing Mai began to say, "Also if you..." As I heard Mai stop talking turned my head to look at her and saw that her eyes were white again.

I turned quickly in shock as I was about to touch her my mother said, "Don't touch her she is having a vision, you will only make it worse."

(Mai's POV)

As I blinked in the middle of my sentence and opened my eyes I realized that things looked different. Lin's brothers and sister looked older and were smiling and as clear as day I heard them laughing. I then looked to my right where Lin had been siting and I saw a older looking Lin smiling and looking around, as if he felt me staring he looked at me and said, 'I love you Mayune' When he said that I felt a sudden sadness. All of a sudden I felt something collide with the side of my body turning to see what it was, I saw a beautiful little girl looking up at me when she said, 'Mommy.' As I looked at her I noticed that my stomach was swollen a sure tell sign that my no whose ever future I was seeing was far along in their pregnancy. I felt tears begin to fall down my face as I realized that I would never have something like this, I placed my hand on my mouth preventing me from crying out as I reached out and grabbed Lin's arm and closed my eyes again. When I opened them I was out of the vision, I looked at every one while they stared at me with a look that I can only describe as pure curiosity.

(Lin's POV)

We sat there watching as Mai looked around the room as if she is seeing something we can't. But then at one point the dishes and eating utensils started to float off the table. Not missing a beat my father said, "Don't touch anything, well Lin it looks like you brought us an interesting student. From what your mother and I have seen and heard so far this girl has many different abilities and she may have more to come." As he placed his elbow on the table and interlocking his finger then placing his head on them as if he is figure out how he will train her.

Then she suddenly began to cry she covered her mouth and grabbed my arm as she closed her eyes all of the dished landed in the positions that they had originally been place in, but when she opened her eyes again her eyes were no longer her normal auburn brown but they now were a stunning light blue. As she looked at me my eyes widened in shock at the sudden change. Without a second thought I asked her, "Mai what happened to your eyes?'

Her eyes widened at my question and she quickly stood up and went to the mirror on the wall, only for her to say, "Oh my goodness." She then quickly turned around and looked at me and asked "How did this happen? Lin what is going on?"

My mother in all her wisdom and spoke up by asking, "Mai what did you see in your vision."

"I...I can't say" stuttered Mai as she shook her head.

"Mai Why won't you tell us?" I asked her as I tried to figure out why.

"I just can't" Said Mai more determined.

"Mai can you tell me why you can't tell us what you saw." asked my mother.

"I just know that I can't" Stated Mai as she looked my mother in her eyes.

"Mai do you believe that if you say anything that what you saw would change?" Asked my mother. I watched as Mai shook her head in confirmation. "Well let me ask you this...was what you saw a good thing or a bad thing?"

"I was a very good thing that I saw." That was all Mai said as she sat down in her chair. "I can't say any more than that, I am sorry" she said this looking down at her lap.

"Well I think we just learned that Mai has many abilities and I am guessing that what we will discover more during her training." Said my father as he looked at Mai.

I asked my father, "Father do you know why her eyes might have changed colors?"

"Yes my son, I believe that it is due to the fact that at the time of the vision more than one ability became active, from what I believe it could be is that her body released some of her powers through her eyes which changed their color. If what I believe is true then it means that she is going to have more powers than any other student I have had before." stated my father.

"All right now that you three have seen what she can do, lets eat our dinner and tomorrow we will begin to train you Mai" stated my mother as she signaled the staff to bring in the dinner that had been prepared before the commotion started. We all sat there and ate dinner and surprisingly my sister Xifeng started to talk to Mai.

She asked Mai, "Mai tell me something that koujo doesn't know about you?"

For a second Mai looked as if she was thinking about the question. Then she answered, "Well he probably doesn't know that I use to model under a different name." She said as she looked up at my sister with a smile.

"You did what?" I asked.

"Oh it was nothing big just some advertisement for some small stuff, the money was good and it was before I met you and the rest of SPR." She said as she looked me in the eyes with a smile on her lips.

By the look on each member of my family they were stunned at this new information. When my sister asked, "Really can you show me one of those images?"

"Yeah sure" Mai looked at me and asked, "Can I barrow your phone real quick? Pleas?"

I looked at her and could not hold up to her and I quietly handed her my phone and when I looked up at my mother I saw a small smile that sent shivers down my spine.

I watched as Mai went to my internet and typed in a name and I asked her, "Is that the name you modeled under?"

Mai looked up at me and said, "Yep I didn't want to be bothered by people if they recognized me there is only one photo that looks slightly like me." She then pulled up a image where there was a girl with short brown hair in the rain, but what stunned me the most was that she was in a kimono and was holding a sword in the rain and looked to be dancing. "We did this one for a game character and I ended up having to do another one where my face was not seen but the focal points of the character were seen, I ended up getting a bigger payment for this project. With that payment I didn't have to worry about not having money to pay rent for six months, but I still took jobs during that time to make sure I could pay for all of the other things that were necessary to live." As I looked at my parents when they viewed the image I saw the look of surprise and astonishment.

My mother then spoke, "This is you...these are amazing and very beautiful. " As she turned and looked at Mai.

"Thank you." Said Mai as a blush dusted her cheeks and she looked down at her nearly empty plate. As I looked at my own plat I noticed that it was also empty realizing that I had been eating during this whole conversation without even thinking about eating because I was focused on the conversation. Out of the corner of my eye I saw my father look at his watch then look at my mother signaling that it was getting late and that we should get ready for bed.

At my fathers hint my mother said as she stood up, "Alright it is getting late you three need to head home to be with your families and we need to get ready for bed."
