Ayako has already done everything she can on applying the first aid on the dying Mai when suddenly a child's cry echoed the room. The couple gasped at the sight before them.

"MAMA!" Amy, with her baby feet, ran towards Mai. Despite of the blood, she hugged her tight. "MAMA! NO!"

"I'm sorry Dr. Davis, my wife and I couldn't stop her. She suddenly screamed that something bad happened to her mother, and begged us to come here." The husband apologetically bowed at Naru.

Gene glanced at his brother, who was standing at the window, with his hands on his pocket. Gene knew that Naru can't take the sight of Mai dying because of him.

"It's alright Shouo-san." Gently stated.

"D-D-Did you already called an ambulance?" The wife stuttered.

"Yes, we already did."

Amy still hugging the barely breathing Mai. "Mama please, don't leave me. Don't leave me!"

"Amy-chan, that's enough. She'll be alright." John whispered and patted the child's head. "Mai-san will be sad if she will see you crying."

The child let go of Mai, John wiped her tears. They all perked up when they heard the siren getting closer.

It was Gene and Bou-san who went outside to meet the paramedics and they hurried them to the base. The paramedics moved immediately after they saw the scene, and since Ayako is a doctor, she's the one who ride with them to the hospital. The others were to follow.

"Noll, don't blame yourself." Gene tried to comfort his brother after the others followed the ambulance. They are still in the base.

"Why won't I? I promised to protect her, but in the end, it was me who was protected instead." Naru stated.

"She will be alright. She survived tough situations before."

"But not like this." He looked at the pool of blood on the floor. "But not like this." He whispered. Gene startled when he suddenly punched the window.

"That's enough, and let's follow the team."

The team, together with their client, were still on the waiting area while Mai still on the surgery room when the twins arrived. The wife was carrying Amy, who seemed exhausted from crying.

"How was she?" Naru asked them.

"There's still no news. But a nurse came running inside carrying two bags of blood." Lin informed him.

A moment of silence passed by until a doctor came out from the room.

"The relatives of Mai Taniyama?"

The team all stood up. "She's an orphan, but we are her co-workers." Gene said.

"Hmm." He nodded. "You said that she was stabbed in the heart and she lost too much blood, is that right?"

"Yes." It was Naru who answered.

"But it's odd..." The doctor stated "Blood loss aside, her wound already scarred."

Their eyes widened in shocked.

"WHAT?!" They all exclaimed.

"What do you mean by that?" Bou-san asked.

"Simply saying… That her wound already healed before she got here."

"That's impossible! Her wound is too deep that I even have a hard time patching it." Ayako exclaimed.

"It is impossible, that's why we're baffled."

"So... in short, she's alright now?" Gene asked uncertainly.

"Yes, but I suggest to let her stay for a few more days to examine her thoroughly."

They all sighed in relief, especially Naru.

"Well then, I will transfer her to the available private room." The doctor excused himself to them.

When the doctor informed about Mai's condition, there's one person who wasn't surprise to hear about it. He glanced at the sleeping child on their client's arms.

You did a great job healing her on time, Amy-chan. John softly smiled. Thank you God, for saving her. He silently prayed.

Mai slowly opened her eyes; the first she noticed was the beeping sound of the machine.

Where am I? She asked herself.

She closed her eyes and trying to remember what happened to her.

Naru.

Demon.

Blood.

She gasped out loud. She slowly rise from her bed to sit down and touched her chest to where the demon supposedly stabbed her. But she found no deep wound.

She tugged her hospital dress to check it, but widened her eyes from what she saw. It has a neatly formed scar.

"Amy..." She mumbled. She looked at the dextrose stand and saw two bags of blood being transfused to her.

Mai heard a gasped from the door, she looked up and saw the team. A chorus of 'Mai' and 'How are you feeling?' was said.

"I'm fine. Luckily, still alive." She answered with a smile.

Naru felt the burden lifted from his shoulders when he saw her. Alive and kicking. But the thing that bothers him was...

"How come your wound was healed immediately?" Ayako asked curiously.

Yes, that. Naru thought.

Mai lowered her eyes when everyone was waiting for her answer. She avoided Naru's eyes. She gripped the sheet on the bed.

I don't want you make an experiment on her! Mai sternly thought.

"I don't know." She said plainly. "I was surprised too. I'm sure that I was going to die after what happen."

"Are you sure?" Ayako asked. Mai nodded and assured her with a smile.

The narcissist narrowed his eyes on her. You're lying...

The door suddenly opened revealing John, carrying Amy on his arms.

"Mama!" The child exclaimed. "You're awake!"

"Yes baby, come here!" John put Amy on her bed.

Mai kissed her head and whispered. "Thank you for saving me."

It's been a week since the incident happen. Naru and his friends were currently hanging out in his unit.

"Did you really believe that Mai don't have any idea from what happen to her?" Ayako stated out of the blue.

"What do you mean?" Her husband asked.

"I saw her scar, and that was not an ordinary scar." She said.

"You mean she's hiding something from us?" Gene tilted his head.

Masako sighed "It's normal if she don't trust us enough to tell what it is."

"Lin." He called the silent Chinese man.

"Yes?"

"I want you dig information about the orphanage and Amy."

The others looked at him questionably. Naru sighed. "I'm suspicious about the kid." He explained.

"About Amy? Why?" Madoka asked.

"Intuition." He simply said.

"Okay, I will do it."

"The others are suspicious of the scar. What should I do John? I don't want to tell them about Amy's abilities, especially to Naru. He's been eyeing Amy ever since he met her."

Mai was in the orphanage talking to John about what should they do if Naru will be able to know the truth about the child.

The priest sighed "There's no secret that won't be revealed, Mai-san. Amy-chan was a gifted healer. God made her as an instrument to heal those who suffer thru her tears."

Mai shook her head. "The society isn't that noble, the people are greedy. They will only take advantage on her."

"That's true." John agreed. "And besides, Amy-chan wasn't fully aware about her own abilities either."

"That's why we should keep this from her."

"But about Dr. Davis?"

Mai sighed. "I think he already dropped it. He already stopped asking me questions about it."

John sighed in relief. "Alright. But be careful, okay? You survived this time, and we don't know about next time."

"Of course."

"Yo, boss!" Yasuhara chimed as he entered the office. He was looking around but failed to see the brown-haired assistant. "Where's Mai?" He asked.

"I asked her to buy some tea."

"Shounen! It's been a while!" Bou-san greeted. The two fist-bumped like they usually do.

"So boss... how's is it going?" Yasu teasingly grinned at him. When Naru only raised his eyebrow at him, as if he didn't know what he's talking abou. Yasu rolled his eyes. "The bet, I mean!"

Naru paused a moment, then continue reading his new book. "It's going well."

"Like...?" He urged him to continue. "Are you falling in love with her, or she's already falling for you?"

"The latter."

Yasu snickered. "Ohohoh? Really?! How can we believe that?"

"The wedding is fast approaching, Noll!" Gene reminded him.

Ayako, on the other hand, was humming a song happily. "He's falling for her first~ and it seems that it's going to be my win~"

"That's my wife~" Bou-chan softly squeezed her. Naru irked looking at the couple, there's no way he's going to lose!

"You haven't kissed her either, right?" Yasu teasingly asked. When he remained quiet, laughter erupted from everyone's mouth.

"Oliver Davis is losing his touch on women!" Madoka exclaimed between laughter.

"He maybe a young genius, but he failed in capturing jou-chan's heart with his strategies!" Bou-san seconded.

They were still laughing when suddenly, he forcedly closed his book. Everyone stopped to look at him.

"In three days, mom and dad will visit us here." Naru smirked at the three people who was betting "Masako, Ayako, and Lin, bring your cheques there."

"Oh! What does it mean boss~" Yasu asked.

"I will show you that I haven't lost my touch yet." Naru stated with a smug "I will kiss her there and then."

Everyone cheered at their young boss' determination. But unknown to them, Yasuhara forgot to close the door properly when he entered earlier.
