Court Justice: *Shaking head* Baka

Mai slowly opened the door to see what could possibly be in her room. What she saw shocked her.

Naru was in the room, going through Mai's bags. He was mumbling to himself, something Mai could not hear. She watched until he got into one of her children's bag then stepped in.

"What are you doing?"

Naru turned around to see Mai at the door, her arms crossed over her chest, "Nothing," He straightened up and put his hands in his pockets. The black haired man did not expect the brunette to catch him.

"Why are you going through my things when you should be looking for Ren?"

"Why should I be looking for Ren?"

"Because she is your assistants daughter, that's why."

"I recall hiring you, but not as an assistant."

"Then why did you hire me? Hmm, what possibly could have gone through your head that would make you want to hire me,"

Naru paused, not really knowing what had gone through his head when he had talked with John about getting the whole team back together. He truly did not know why he had done what he had done. He hurt Mai. More than once at that. And he didn't want to loose her again. But what he said next surprised even him.

"It's not like I'm the father of the child, I have no motive to find it,"

Mai became furious, "IT! She is not an it! Her name is Ren and I know that her TRUE father would never say something like that, her true father was a nice man,"

Naru stood as tall as he could and anger grew in his eyes, "Her father! What do you know all about her father! You said it yourself that you only knew him for a small amount of time,"

"And that small amount of time was able to show me that he is a better man than Oliver Davis! At least he was able to tell me that he loves me!"

Silence came between the two bickering adults.

"Mai," Naru's voice sounded strained. He had suddenly realized that he had lost. He now knew that the children he thought may be his were not his. He had lost by never telling Mai that he loved her. Mai suddenly felt bad for yelling so harshly at him that moment. Naru stepped back and sat on the bed, placing his face in his hands and softly mumbling, "Mai, do you have anything of Ren's, anything at all."

"Huh? Naru, don't tell me you're-" But just as she spoke Naru grabbed her and held her head. He placed his forehead to hers and everything grew silent. Mai was surprised at what he had done.

Instant thoughts started flying through Mai's head. Her face became warm at the closeness he was to her. This must have been the reason he had gone through her things! He was looking for something to find Ren with, but why did he hide it.

These thoughts flew through Mai's head but after a moment or two Naru pulled away and looked into Mai's eyes, for once worry was on his face.

"Mai, it's happening," And then he stood up and left the room, Mai following after.

"Ren! You had Oka-san so worried, where did you go?" Kyan had not noticed the red that laced his sister's eyes and the evil aura that was emitted from her body.

"Kyan, come here to the water, it feels so warm," Ren giggled and splashed a little more. She seemed normal to Kyan, so he ran over to his sister and sat down on the rock next to the spring to take his shoes off.

"Hurry Kyan, hurry, before the water gets cold,"

Kyan laughed as he jumped in, getting his entire body wet. Ren looked at her brother, a smile appearing on her face. She beckoned her brother closer by splashing water on him. He took the bait and came closer to his sister.

Kyan splashed Ren one last time then looked up, her eyes were red like blood. Instantly, the small boy tried to take steps away from his sister. But she grabbed onto his shoulders and began to laugh.

"You silly fool," And then she pushed him.

Mai and Naru turned the corner just as the water splashed, Kyan was floating on top of the water, blood trailing out of his head. Ren stood above him, an evil smirk on her face, until she saw the two adults.

The small girl's facial expression turned from that of jovial happiness to distraught anger. Naru made towards the possessed child just as Mai went for Kyan's body.

"You can't stop me, I have her and can take her from you two before you even noticed," The ghost lied in a demonic voice. Naru stood his ground and glared at the girl, trying to figure out how not to harm the child, not knowing that was the ghosts plan from the beginning.

Mai picked Kyan up, out of the water. She tried to make a break towards the door and call for the others but then she felt a grasp around her waist and was shoved into the wall. Naru turn at hearing Mai's body thud on the ground. His anger flared as he turned back to the one who had caused it.

"How?"

"I really must thank you," The girl looked at her nails, not the least worried about the man in front of her, "If it was not for you this girl would not have these powers, and I would not be able to use them," As Naru took a step forward he heard a squeal behind him, he knew the voice belonged to Mai, "If you take another step I'll rip her arm off,"

Naru's head snapped back. Behind him he saw Mai, held in the air, one arm being pulled tightly. Her face showed pain and… worry? Kyan lay below his mother, only a small twitch showing that he was still alive. When Ren started to laugh again Naru turned back to look at her.

"It is so obvious that you care for that girl. Even I, a dead ghost, can tell. Yet, you still push her away. Now, let's see. I will torture her. And you will have a choice," Naru heard another squeal behind him and cringed, "You can either choose to save the love of your life," The atmosphere grew thick, Naru already knew what his choice would be, but then the next words made him pause, "Or your daughter,"

The energy flow stopped and the small brunette with blue eyes laughed. Naru heard Mai yell out in pain behind him. He did not know what to do. The surprise of Ren and Kyan being his children had stunted his decision making. Both happiness and worry flooded his body at the moment causing him to think irrationally and not know which choice he wanted.

He could choose Mai, his love, and live with her forever. But he did not know if she would take him back after what he did. Or he could choose his child, his own genes. He barely knew the kid but now wished to be in her life. But, there was always Kyan if Ren died. No! He could not think of that, Mai would never love him if he let her child die instead of her.

Naru now knew why Mai had not wanted to talk about three years ago. He now understood what she must have gone through after the accident. But in his mind, he could not forgive her for keeping such a large secret from him.

"Naru!" Mai yelled from behind him. But the English man could not help. He was too busy thinking out the situation. And this pissed him off to no end.

"Noll, use me," Naru instantly stopped all of his thoughts at his brothers voice, "Let me posses you, I will get the ghost out of Ren and then you can take care of it from there,"

Naru understood. He closed his eyes and let peace flow through him. This was very hard to do though because the screams from Mai kept coming. Finally his body slumped.

"Hmm, given up already?" The possessed child tilted her head to the side and took a step closer to the older man.

After a few seconds Naru raised his head. Though his eyes were the same color, they held something more to them, something that told the girl that he would win. Ren instantly backed away after seeing his eyes.

No words were said as Gene made his way to Gregory. The two ghosts possessing others' bodies would fight. And only one would survive.

Gregory, with fear pervading his mind, shot PK towards Gene. But the skilled teen did not waver. He flung the powerful orbs away as if they were nothing but mere flies. His smile still never faltered.

Gregory became angry and tried to get at Mai again, finding that his PK was no longer working. The ghost looked around in distraught, trying to find something to help him defeat Gene. He found nothing as Gene moved forward. He found nothing as Gene picked him up. But he did feel pain. Immense pain.

Gene's hand lit up as he pushed the ghost out of Ren's body. Instantly after Gregory had left the delicate body Naru returned. He held onto the child gently in his arms while he raised his hand in the air.

PK started to accumulate in the air above his hand and Gregory's ghost now tried to escape. But the pressure was too much for the dead boy. He screamed as the air was taken from him. He screamed as Naru dropped his hand, and he screamed as the power hit him like lightning.

Gregory disappeared instantly and the spring started to take on a lighter feeling.

Naru walked over to Mai just as the team rounded the corner. He noticed that her left arm was pulled out of socket and although he cringed at the sight he had to smile. Even when she had been in pain and agony she had worried about Kyan and somehow been able to wrap his head in part of her shirt that she had torn off.

"Noll, what happened, are you ok?" Lin ran to Naru's side.

Naru turned to look at Lin, his face still smiling, and his arms still holding his daughter. The English man's eyesight began to fade as he said one word to Lin. "Hospital," And then, he fainted.

Yay, another chapter is up! Whoopie!

Ok, so the contest is still open, i will update within the next twenty four hours if someone gets the question right, i will also add them as a character in the story for one chapter when I write the beginning story of how the relationship started. the contest will shut down once the next chapter is posted because that chapter will give away the answer. ok, i'll give you all a hint, think back in the chapters about something that happened either before the story happened or at the beginning.

ok, thank you to all my reviewers and all my readers, Chibi-Kyuubi-Chan, I did not buy one for $7.50, the real copyright is worth way more than that... all though I did somehow lose $7.50, and to all of you who tried to answer the question, nice answers, but not quite there yet.

ok, so have a great time waiting. astalavesta (or however you spell it)
