Don't own Ghost Hunt.

Monk narrowed his eye's at the tied up Possessed John. He wouldn't dare try and exorcise him, in fear of John getting hurt. It was frustrating to have an exorcist possessed. I mean, was that even possible? Apparently it was.

Then again, it was slightly amusing to see John act so out of character.

While Monk eyed Possessed John, the blonde stared blankly and tried to adjust himself into a more comfortable possition. Slowly, Monk pulled a cell phone out of his pocket and dialed a number.

"Hello?" Ayako picked up.

"Hi..." Said Monk. "We need you over here. Now. John's possessed."

"What?"

"Just come!"

"I'm half way across the hospital! I'm coming, but I won't get there straight away you know!"

The line went dead and Monk snapped the phone shut, putting it back in his pocket.

"Ayako's coming as fast as she can."

"Okay, so, do you think this ghost is going to be any help before we exorcise him out of John? He doesn't seem very dangerous..." Mai asked quietly.

"To be honest, I'm not sure. Appart from running around the room like a headless chicken, he didn't exactly put up much of a fight. Not to mention Naru is practically ignoring this whole situation." Monk paused. "But I just hope Ayako gets here soon."

"Yeah... Poor John."

Mai idly observered everyone in the room. It was unusually quiet.

Possessed John was now attempting, with great concentration, to itch his left leg with his right foot, and failing miserably due to the fact that his legs were also tied to the chair.

Yasu sat by the table with a confused expression, and Lin was stoically typing away at his computer. Naru was reading a file that Yasu put together while simultaniously sipping his tea.

Then Mai noticed something.

"Where did Dr. Haruko go?"

They all looked at her strangely. "He left to go home while you and Takigawa were tying John up. Maybe if you were paying attention you would have noticed." Said Naru.

"Yeah, even I noticed that." Possessed John spoke up.

"Never mind that," Yasu started, before Mai could yell at him. "How on earth did no one notice John was possessed in the first place? I thought that when someone becomes possessed, they pass out for at least a moment."

"I have no idea how we didn't notice that actually." Monk frowned. "I don't recall him falling or anything... though he was leaning against the wall?"

"That could be it, but we can't be sure." Said Naru.

"...I'm hungry." Possessed John whined.

"Eh? Seriously?"

"Yeah."

"Well... We'll remember that."

"HEY!" The priest protested. Before anyone could reply, Ayako opened the door already dressed in her miko robes, followed by Masako.

"Sup." The blonde greeted.

"So he really is possessed."

"Yeah..." Mai gave a small smile. "I don't think John would willingly say 'sup'."

Ayako smirked, "Well, that's true."

"Hey, Masako, I thought you were in our room?" Mai asked.

"When I was about to come back to base, I saw Miss Matsuzaki and decided to go with her on patrol."

"Oh, okay."

"Anything you would like to say about Possessed John here, before we exorcise him?" Monk offered.

"... I still can't pick out why he's here. He isn't the only ghost in this hospital though." Masako replied slowly.

Ayako sighed and snapped her fingers. "Alright then. Let's get this over with. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm getting tired."

Once they had flicked off the lights and set up everything to Ayako's content, the miko started the exorcism. Mai couldn't help but notice that the blonde looked slightly nervous. Well, more than slightly.

"Alright! I take it back! I don't wanna be exorcised! You guys are crazy!" He paused. "And for the love of sushi can someone PLEASE itch my leg?"

He instantly got numerous retorts of; "SHUT UP!", "Hmm... how about... NO." and "...Sushi?"

"I didn't run all this way for me not to exorcise you! Now be quiet!"

"...I thought ghost's could willingly leave people's bodies?" Mai said hesitantly.

She was met with dead silence.

"Oh."

"I like that idea!" John piped. "How do I do it? Is there some kind of button I press or something...?"

Everyone looked at him strangely before Monk spoke up sarcastically. "Yeah actually, there is. You just poke the bridge of your vessels nose, and then you're out of there."

"Oh, okay!" John easily ripped off the rope on his right arm and attempted to do what was instructed. But he missed.

"Owww..." The possessed priest brought his hand up to nurse his now sore eye. "My hand slipped..."

"Monk!" Mai scolded.

He looked at her defensively. "What? I didn't think he would actually believe me!"

"I'm sick of this..." John whined, while still rubbing his eye. "Can you just do the exorcism and get it over with? I miss my wife." The blonde paused, "So long as it doesn't hurt."

"That would probably be best." Naru said dryly.

Once the exorcism was complete, John finally got control over his body again, looking a tad confused. He wriggled around a bit, and realised he was tied up appart from his right arm.

"What...?" He glanced around. "What on earth happened? And... Why is my eye so sore?"

"Well, you see..."

About five minutes later, after everything was explained, John was left embarrassed, and the rest of them tired.

Not long after, Naru had told everyone to get some rest, save for Lin and himself, who would stay by the monitors. The rest gladly complied, and eagerly went to sleep in their respective rooms.

~ Mai's Dream ~

'What..?' When Mai glanced around the room, she realised she was somewhere she didn't recognise and immediately guessed that she was dreaming. She figured she would talk to Gene soon enough. Now she just had to figure out the point of the dream.

Inspecting the room more closely, she noticed that it was quite dark and dusty like no one had been present for a while, and that there we at least five doors in sight. Mai wandered around and found not only two more doors, but a trapdoor under the mat.

"Since when are there places like this in hospitals?" Mai murmured, opening one of the seven doors. It led into another dark room, filled with shelves, cabinets and boxes.

"A storage room?" Not bothering to search that room much longer, she ambled back into the origional room. Mai lifted the mat and stared at the trapdoor.

"Alright, I'm curious." Flicking the mat away entirely, she opened the hatch and stepped down the ladder.

What she saw, when inside, was more than a little disturbing.

~ End of Dream ~

"GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!"

"WHAT THE-"

What? Okay. Rewind.

Mikashi burst through the doors to SPR's base, expecting them all to be up and eating breakfast or something. Ghost hunters are sure to be morning people, surely!

"GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!"

But, apparently not.

She was greeted by the sight of a dishevelled narcissist who seemed to have not only been sleeping on the couch, but also gotten a bit of a fright. Judging by his greeting of, "WHAT THE-" Mika decided she was probably right on that one.

"Why is no one up yet?" Mika asked innocently.

"Why are you here!" Naru retorted.

"Why does it matter?" The blonde girl inquired blankly.

"Why doesn't it matter?"

"Why were you sleeping on the couch?"

"Why are you asking stupid questions?"

"Why aren't you answering my stupid questions?"

"..."

"Why do you still get to look so good when you've just woken up!"

"Why? Are you jealous of my good looks? Infact, why don't you go bother someone else?"

Mika put on the most pompus of all pompus voices and leaned foward into the most flourishing bow Naru had ever seen.

"Yes your great and mighty narcissisticness!"

And with that, she was gone.

Lin and Naru glanced at each other. A few seconds later the echoing shout of "GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!" came again, this time from the female SPR member's room.

It was going to be a long day...

~ After they all got over the shock of things ~

All of SPR, (plus Mika, minus Naru and Lin) surrounded the table in base, all preparing their numerous breakfast foods. Cereal, toast, more cereal, orange juice, toast, milk, even more cereal and last but not least, ice cream.

"Mika... What are you doing?" Monk asked hesitantly.

"Making breakfast. What are you doing?"

"No, what I meant was, what are you doing having ice cream for breakfast?"

She looked up and smiled cheerfully. "Oh, well I heard on this health programme one time that if you eat things you would normally have for dinner, like veges and stuff, instead of having cereal or what ever for breakfast, you would be energetic and healthy all day!" Her smile turned into a grin. "And then I had this epiphany that if having dinner for breakfast is healthy, then having desert for breakfast would be even healthier! I'm a genius!"

"...Uh... I don't think that's quite how it works Mika..."

"Well, I don't know about you guys, but I kinda like her logic." Yasu said sheepishly, eyeing his orange juice.

"Want some?" Mika offered.

"I'm good with toast, thanks."

She shrugged, "Suit yourself."

Everyone quietly ate while watching Mika struggle with the overly frozen ice cream. She grunted and continued attempting to dish the desert. "This... is... really... hard ice cream."

Clutching the utensil with as much grip as possible, she applied more force, and slowly (very slowly) succeeded in bringing the desert to its doom. Seizing the spoon in two hands she quickly decided on a new tactic.

Stab, and hope you can wedge a chunk out!

Once she was satisfied with how deep the spoon was in, she forcefully pulled it towards herself. But, due to the ice cream's unfailing stubborness, the metal utensil only bent.

She slowly pulled out the spoon and looked at it closely. A small grin appeared on her face.

"HAH! I HAVE ESP!" She exclaimed in glee.

"What...?" Mai looked up at her.

"Look!" She shoved the bent spoon in Mai's face. "I bent the spoon! I have ESP!"

Mai laughed. "Sorry to burst your bubble but, no."

"...My bubble is burst."

Mika pushed away the ice cream and sat down, sighing, "Oh well." A few seconds of silence later, Mika spoke again, "...Pass the cereal?"

~ A Bit Later ~

"The temperature is dropping in the second floor staff room and the near the fourth floor help desk." Lin informed Naru monotonously. "... Also in one of the hallways close to the staff room."

"Alright. Takigawa, Miss Hara and I will take the staff room and hallway. Father Brown and Miss Matsuzaki, go to the help desk. Lin will stay here by the monitors." Naru ordered.

"Right!" They all quickly despersed, leaving Mai with an uncertain expression.

"And me...?" She asked.

"Have some tea ready by the time we get back."

"I'm not just going to sit here and make tea! I'm coming with you." Mai said firmly.

Naru scowled. "Fine, just don't get in the way."

They quickly ran in the direction Monk and Masako were headed, Mikashi following close behind. Once they arrived at the scene, there was no sign of a ghost anywhere. Or Masako.

"Where is Miss Hara?" Naru demanded, looking at Monk.

"I don't know! She was just here with me a moment ago and then suddenly all the commotion stopped and she was gone!" Monk paniced.

Naru frowned. "Calm down, go get Miss Matsuzaki and Father Brown and search everywhere for her. She could be anywhere in the hospital."

Mai and Mika glanced at each other in worry. "I just hope we can find her soon."

A/N: Well, I finally got this chapter done. Sorry it came late! I have my reasons though. Hopefully the next chapter will come sooner! :) I'm aware this chapter is a bit of a filler, appart from Mai's dream (sorry for the cliffhanger on that one) which actually will have something to do with the case. I'm also aware that some things don't make total sense, but, I try.

And now, this chapter's GHFBT! :)

Once they arrived at the scene, there was no sign of a ghost anywhere. Or Masako.

"Where is Miss Hara?" Naru demanded, looking at Monk.

"I don't know! She was just here with me a moment ago and then suddenly all the commotion stopped and she was gone!" Monk paniced.

A groan a few metres back made them turn, "I'm right here... I just tripped."

GHFBT #2

Everyone quietly ate while watching Mika struggle with the overly frozen ice cream. She grunted and continued attempting to dish the desert. "This... is... really... hard ice cream."

Clutching the utensil with as much grip as possible, she applied more force, and slowly (very slowly) succeeded in bringing the desert to its doom.

But no one could have been prepared for what was about to happen.

In the slowest of all slow motions, Mika finally got a spoon full of ice cream. Only, it decided to take a flying lesson.

Everyone who was innocently eating, jumped up from the table (still in slow motion) and scrambled desperately to stop it's descent towards a certain something, which would guarantee their impending unemployment.

Naru's tea.

A/N: Read and Review! :D
