Chapter 3: Returning Home

Mai's POV

SPLASHHHHH "What happened, where's the fire!" I screeched as I fell off her bed that was now soaked with water.

"Looks like your awake." Someone with a bucket in there hands said above me.

"SAYA?!?" I yelled as I sat up from the floor staring down at my wet pajamas, then looking back up at my friend.

"Well you told me to give you a wake up call, and I called four times and you didn't answer so I came over to wake you up with the spare key under your doormat." Saya exclaimed as she waved a shining key in front of me.

"Did you really need to pour water on me?" I said as shook my self like a dog trying to get at least some of the water off, and out of my hair.

"No I didn't, but I though that if I did than you would no doubtfully wake up, and you will also be wide away." Saya replied with a large smile as she turned around to open the curtains.

"Ok well then, thanks... I guess." I stated as I stood up and walked toward the bathroom to get myself cleaned up and take a shower.

"Before I go I'll get you a change of clothes and put your suit case by the door, ok." Saya said as she made her way to my dresser.

"Yeah that's fine, thanks Saya." I called as I turned the water in the shower on to a warm temperature.

'I wonder what clothes Mai will like to wear, I get her a light pink shirt and a green skirt, considering she seems to like to wear skirts a lot.' Saya thought as she grabbed the clothing and placed them atop Mai's bed. She then walked over to Mai's jewelry box thinking maybe she should add a necklace to the selected outfit. She opened the wooden box engraved with the word 'Mai' on it and began to look through the jewelry. Saya picked up a beautiful necklace with a glittering light pink rose with one small green leaf that sparkled around the edge. It had a silver chain and Saya though it would go perfect with the outfit. She closed the box and walked back over to the clothes on the bed and placed the rose necklace on the shirt. Saya smiled as she clapped her hands together satisfied with her choice. She then picked up Mai suitcase and put it by her door. She yelled a goodbye to Mai, not waiting for an answer as she walked through the door placing the spare key back in its place then leaving towards her house.

"Looks like Saya left." I exclaimed as I exited the bathroom and saw her friend was missing.

'I wonder what outfit she picked out.' 'A pink top and green skirt, nice choice, what's this?' I though as she picked up the rose necklace. 'It's the necklace mother got me for my birthday. She said she bought it because I always loved to play by and pick the pink roses... I quickly snapped out my thought and put the outfit and necklace on before I was late once again to work. I looked down at her watch that read 11:30am.

"I guess I can leave now, maybe Naru and Lin might want some help."I though aloud and I picked up my suitcase and walked out of my room, locking the door behind me. I ran to the office not wanting to take a chance of getting sidetracked.

'I made it here on time and twenty minuets early, and if Naru asks why I will just say I didn't want to take a chance on being late.' I though as I turned the doorknob to the SPR office.

"Naru, I'm here!" I called setting my suitcase down by the door, as I made my way over the the kitchen to make tea trying to be one step ahead of Naru.

"Your here early, Mai." Naru stated still staring at his book.

"Yep, I didn't want to be late so I left early." I replied, proud of myself for not being late for a fourth time.

"Well then, tea." Naru said still not looking up from his book, but I could see the smirk on his face.

"Way ahead of you Naru." I said happily placing the tray with Naru's tea on it atop his desk.

"Looks like I was one step ahead of you this time Naru." I stated with a smirk as Naru's disappeared and he place his book down and I walked toward the door to go as Lin if he would like any tea.

"Well it looks to me as if you're finally catching on, so since you got the tea go do some filing before we leave." Naru said, his smirk returning to his face and he picked his book back up and continued where he had left off.

'Grrrr he was one step ahead of me, AGAIN!' I huffed as I exited the office making my way to Lin's office asking if he wanted any, he once again replied with a no thank you. I made my way to my desk and began with the filing Naru instructed me to do.

After ten minutes I finally finished, and walked to the couch collapsing onto it. Unfortunately Bou-san chose that time to come in and throw a million questions at me."

"Wow! Mai your actually here on time. You don't look so good though. What happened? Where's Naru? Is anyone else here yet?" Bou-san asked me looking curious as he placed his suit case beside mine.

BAM! "Owww! What was that for Ayako?!?" The monk yelled as he rubbed the top of his head, were the miko had hit him with her purse.

"Well if she doesn't look good do you think its a very good idea to ask her so many questions when she's obviously not in the mood to answer them, you lazy monk." Ayako said walking around the monk to enter the room and she too put her suit case on the floor by the door.

"Well excuse me for being curious, you useless miko." Bou-san replied turning from the miko with his arms crossed and nose in the air.

"Uh... ha...haa, I'm just going to go tell Naru your here." I said as a made my way quickly to Naru's office door to escape the two.

I knocked on the door twice thank slowly entered.

"Naru, Bou-san and Ayako are here ...but I guess you probably know that already." I said as I saw him get up and walk toward the door.

Naru Walked out of the room and stood in front of the monk and miko giving them both a glare.

"This is an office not a playground, if you wish to play I suggest you leave and don't bother on helping out with the case." Naru said with a cold tone that made both Bou-san and Ayako freeze and immediately sit on the couch acting as if nothing ever happened.

I tried and failed to hold in my laughter, and in a few seconds I was cracking up, receiving a glare from Naru causing me to stop.

"That goes for you too Mai." Naru said turning back to his office.

As Naru reached for his door knob there was a knock. Naru turned to me signaling that he wants me to answer it. I got off the couch and walked towards the door and opening it to find John.

"Hi John." I said smiling as I moved out of the way to let him in. I saw him chuckling a bit seeing Bou-san and Ayako sitting politely on the couch not arguing at all.

"Good morning everyone, wow Mai your here... early." He said with a warm smile as he too places his suit case by the door as he took a seat by Bou-san.

"Yes John, I woke up early and decided I'd rather be safe than sorry, or in my case early than late." I replied twitching and walking over to the couch.

"Well all we need now is Masako." Bou-san said standing up as Naru was now out of the room.

Two seconds after he finished the sentence Masako walked in putting her rather large suit case on the floor near the couch.

"Well then shall we be going?" Masako said as she looked at everyone.

"Yeah we should be going, I'll go get Naru." I said as I got up and received a glare from Masako. I made my pace to Naru's office door quicken was I wanted to get away from the medium who always seemed to glare at me no matter what I do.

I entered Naru's office not bothering to knock.

"Naru, sorry for not knocking but everyone is here." I said as I waited for his reply.

"Ok, tell everyone to go wait outside for Ishida-san to arrive." He replied as he gathered his paper put them in his suit case.

I nodded exiting the room and announcing to everyone Naru's exact words. Everyone grabbed her suitcase and walked out of the office waiting in front of the building.

After about four minutes Misaki stopped in front of us popped open the trunk and got out of the car smiling and walking over to Naru.

"Sorry I'm late, there was traffic." She said bowing her head.

"It's fine." Naru replied as he made he way over the the trunk placing down him luggage turning his head to us telling us to do the same. Naru then took a seat in the one of the two seats behind the driver's seat.

I went over and put my suitcase in as well taking the second seat next to Naru.

Bou-san than put his luggage in followed by Ayako, than John and last Masako who took a seat in the back next to John frowning at the though of being in the back.

Lin was the last to put his suitcase in, and he took a seat in the passenger's seat next to Misaki.

"We should be there in about twenty minuets." Misaki said keeping her eyes on the road but I could just hear the smile in her voice.

Nobody talked the entire ride, which left me to my thoughts, but after a few minutes I began to feel my eye lids getting heavy and I began to feel myself fall asleep.

Mai's dream

Original POV

Mai was floating in the air looking down at a family of three, but this time Mai was staring down at her own family. She was herself, her mother, and father playing in there yard together. Mai floated down and walked closer towards her family to get a good look at her parent's faces. Mai began to cry as everything came flooding back to her. She backed and looked at her surroundings. She saw the many different kinds of roses mostly pink. Mai laughed to herself as she remembered her mother when she started to buy mostly pink roses because of Mai's obsession with them. She gasped and began to cry a bit harder as the atmosphere changed. It was the same location but it was night and raining hard. Lighting flashed followed by a loud 'boom'. Mai? ...Mai?

Mai heard someone calling her name as she followed that voice she began to see light as she woke up from her nightmare.

"Wh...What happened?" Mai murmured as she lifted her head to see Naru staring at her.

"You fell asleep. You were crying." Naru said to Mai as she fought to keep her blush down.

"I did?!? Sorry I just had a nightmare." Mai stated looking down wiping the tears from her eyes but continuing to look down.

"Well we should be arriving in a few minuets." Naru said turning his vision back up front. 'I shouldn't ask her about it, it's not my business.' Naru thought looking at Mai from the corner of his eye.

"Where here everyone." Misaki called bringing the car to a stop.

"Ok" Mai mumbled as she got out of the car looking at the place where Misaki worked. Mai's eyes widened and tears began to surface.
