-FOUR YEARS LATER-
Naru sighed and leaned back in his chair, rubbing his tired face. During the last case Yasu had gotten seriously injured because of the spirit they were attempting to exorcise. Masako had been trying to contact the spirit and did not see the knife that was aiming for her. Yasu jumped in front of her and took the slash of the knife instead. Bou-san managed to get rid of the spirit quickly after that and Yasu was transported to the hospital with Ayako. He had been in the hospital for 2 days now but he was healing well. Ayako and Masako was staying with him until he was released in the following days. Naru sighed again and looked out his window. It had started to rain and people were running to avoid getting wet. Except for one person. She was at the entrance to the small park across the street, standing under a lamppost. She looked like she was waiting for someone to pick her up. As Naru stared at her in lazy interest the woman raised her head to look directly at him. Even from this distance he could clearly see the hauntingly familiar eyes staring straight into his soul. Naru blinked in surprise and the girl was gone. Groaning loudly, Naru shut his eyes and covered them with his hand. 'God damnit! How long will it be before I can forget? How long until I give up all hope that she will walk through that door?' He asked himself in self-destructive agony. Naru gave a quiet bitter laugh. He would never be able to forget the bubbly petite girl who had fully claimed his heart as hers. "Mai, where are you? I need you…"
Mai panted from running. She hadn't expected for Naru to see her. Granted she was at the park across the street, but she had a charm on to make her unnoticeable. No one was supposed to see her! Mai stopped to catch her breath. She had run all the way to her new apartment. It was in the Shibuya district, close enough to SPR to see them everyday but far enough away so she wouldn't randomly run into them on the street. Mai knew that everyone had been looking for her when she disappeared, including Lin and the narcissistic bastard. She felt bad making them search so hard but she hadn't wanted to be found, not after the pain she had gone through. It hadn't mattered for long anyway as she had traveled to America for a few years before coming back. During that time Mai had awakened to her true self and she did not want to limit her abilities anymore. But with accepting those abilities came at a price. She was so much more than she was before and she could not control herself at times. She gave a long sigh as she opened her door. "I'm home." Mai muttered to herself and flipped the light switch for the hallway. "Welcome back, Taniyama-san" Mai whirled to confront the speaker. "Who are you?! Show yourself!" She commanded as she took a fighting stance. The man stepped forward into the dim light. Mai's eyes widened. It was…
Me: Hey! So whatcha guys think? I'm sorry it's so short again! TT^TT I only made one year pass because I didn't want too much time to pass but at the same time I wanted just enough so it wouldn't happen too soon. I wonder who the mystery guest is?
Naru: Stupid author. Only you wouldn't know who it is when you are writing the story.
Me: How would you feel if Mai kicked your ass? Mai, what do you think?
Mai: Now now you two calm down. Don't make me get HER in here.
Naru: HER? Who's that?
Me: I-I'm not scared! Bring it on!
Mai: You asked for it. *goes to other room and brings person*
Naru & Me: Oh shit.
