Chapter 5: The Dream
Previously:
Everyone groaned at the thought of packing up all the equipment and the length of the trip. But nonetheless they packed quickly and drove to the clients house. Mai was to go with Naru, and Lin in one van, and the rest went to the other van.
After 30 minutes Mai fell asleep on Naru, and she failed to see Naru blushing because of her act. She slowly fell into her world of dreams.
Mai's Dream World: Normal P.O.V.
Mai opened her eyes to see the lonely abyss her dreams brought to her. She was suddenly thrown into someone's memory.
*Crash*
"YOU IGNORANT CHILD! THAT COSTS HUNDREDS OF DOLLERS!" a women who seemed to be 40 years old screamed at a young boy.
The boy cowered in the corner crying into his teddy bear, and repeatedly saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry".
"DON'T you dare apologize." she slapped him hard against the cheek. "You know the punishment, put out your arms". The women took out a pocket knife from her pocket. Mai gasped terrified of what she would do to the poor child. Mai reached for the knife to take it away, but to her own misfortune she went right through, after all it was merely a dream, she couldn't do anything. Mai laid on the floor staring at the scene with wide eyes, while tears slipped out of her eyes.
Closer and closer the blade came to the boy's arm. And then, the blade reached the top of the child's shoulder and was dragged down to his wrist. Blood oozing out of the boys arm he screamed and squirmed, but the more he moved around the more the women pushed down the blade.
The women smiled the most devilish smile. "Now the next arm." She said cheerfully.
Mai started shaking and pulled her knees up to her chest, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no." Mai repeated while covering her ears. When Mai thought all the boys screaming was over she looked up, only to see the boy covered head to toe in blood and the women smiling brightly, like how a mother would look at a child if they did something good.
Mai looked into the women's eyes. Her head snapped to look straight at Mai, and she said three words... "You are next!".
Mai ran away from the women but she just wasn't fast enough, the women caught up, and cut right into Mai's thigh.
Reality: Normal P.O.V.
The SPR gang got to the house and started unpacking. After about 30 minutes Ayako went to wake up Mai who was still sleeping in the car.
"Hey guys?" Ayako said slowly. "Was Mai wearing red pants this morning?"
Naru raised his eyebrows and looked at Ayako, "No she was wearing blue pant. Why do you ask?"
Ayako went from a confused look to a look of panic. "Oh My Gosh! She's bleeding!" Ayako screamed. "Mai, Mai wake up!" Ayako lightly tapped Mai's face.
Mai woke up with a ear shattering scream, and shaking uncontrollably.
Naru pushed through the SPR gang to get to Mai. He quickly pulled her to his chest and started to whisper calming words into her ear.
Mai looked up, "N-N-naru". She whispered.
"Yes, it's me Mai. You safe now". He told her comfortingly. He picked her up like a groom would do to his bride and carried her into the house to get treated by Ayako.
*Time skip to after she gets treated (Author was lazy)*
The entire SPR went into their recently set up base and sat down sipping tea. Occasionally Mai would open her mouth to say something but would quickly close it.
Ten minutes went bye until Naru decided to say something, "Mai I know you must feel shaken right now, but can you tell us what happened in your dream?"
Mai sighed, "And I was enjoying the silence so much." she laughed hollowly. "Anyway, I saw a boy about 6 years old and a women about 40 years old. The boy had broken something in the house and t-then he was p-punished by the women." Mai gripped her cup of tea tighter tears forming on the brim of her eyes. "She c-cut the boy along both his arms, with the most terrible s-smile on her face. She left the boy and looked straight at me." Mai's eyes started to look around frantically as if to look for the women. "She told me that I-I was n-next, and she cut me". Mai looked at the shocked expressions of the SPR.
Ayako put her hand on Mai's. "I'm sorry Mai, I should have woken you up sooner".
Mai brushed her hand away, "Ayako it's fine. Next time if I see her I'll take her down. It's just that I was surprised this time". Mai smiled to reassure Ayako.
"Mai? What do you mean that you can take her down?" Lin asked. Obviously Naru had the same question because he had a curious look on his face.
"You guys don't know?" Mai asked. Lin shook his head. "Oh well, I have PK and telepathy in addition to the other things."
Lin's eyes grew wide. "How did you control your PK?" he nearly shouted.
Mai looked at Naru and Lin emptily. "When you guys left. There was no one to teach me. So I did it all by myself. I won't lie by saying it was easy, some days I would just break down. But in the end I learned to control it." Mai smiled hollowly at them.
"Mai I'm so-" Naru started but was imediatly cut off by Mai.
"No Naru don't. The past is in the past and nothing can be done about it. I moved on from those memories, and you should forget I even told you". Mai said while walking over to the door. "I'll be in the kitchen making more tea". With that she left.
Naru sighed and ran his hand through his hair. 'What can I do for my so she can love me again' Naru thought.
To Be Continued...
Sorry for such a boring chapter, literally nothing happened between Mai and Naru. But I promise the next chapter will have some fluff! Please Review! Until next time~~~~
