Flashback from ch. 1

….someone's mansion…..

In a room, 3 people was sitting in a king size bed, looking at our dear brunette.

(A/N: of course she has a life support system)

A male that looked like he was in his mid 40's he has brown hair and eyes said that

"Kathryn, welcome home." He said while caressing her face.

A male that was in his early 20's with brown eyes and hair

"Katie, finally you have returned" he said while looking at her with love and compassion

A female that was in her early 20's as well but was younger that the other one, she has long straight brown hair and brown eyes looked at the girl sleeping.

"Katie" she said with tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

Chapter 2: someone returned? Who could it be?

Naru's POV

It's been almost a year now; still we haven't found mai yet. I've been investigating non-stop. Suddenly I heard someone knock on my door.

"Come in" I said in my usual cold voice.

"Seriously, you haven't change at all noll" a very familiar voice said to me. I looked up from the papers I have been reading. I was shocked, to say the least. I even drop the papers I was reading.

"ge-gene" I said

"*laughs* it's been a long time noll, how have you been" gene replied

I snapped back to reality

"Gene, how come you're al-alive!" I asked I couldn't believe this I even stuttered the word 'alive'.

"Hmm, I'll tell you. Wait just a sec I need to call Lin" gene said

He came back with a surprised Lin.

"Anyway, about me being alive and kicking, I was revived by an old friend." He said looking at me and lin.

"Revived? Who has the power to revive the dead? Who is he?" asked lin. I looked at gene he was hesitating to answer us. It was making me impatient.

"GENE" I said out loud

"Alright already, she is not a he." He paused

"Who is she then?" asked Lin growing impatient

"You all know her, a girl that has brown hair and eyes. Somewhat cheerful and caring." He paused.

Suddenly Lin and I blurted out a name that we had been investigating for the past six months.

"mai/taniyama-san" we were shocked; we looked at gene for confirmation. He just nodded with a solemn look.

"Gene, do you know were mai is?" I asked

"Sadly, no, I'm sorry noll."

"Gene, I need you to tell me everything. What I mean of everything, gene. Of, how come you know mai!"

"Well I knew her ever since your first case at mai's school. I save her from a falling book case."

"Wait that was 1 ½ yr ago. How come mai didn't tell me?"

Gene's POV

"Will she tell you that she have been dreaming about you. I think not."

"Ever since then I became her spirit guide, helping with the cases that you come up with."

"It was 3 months ago, that I have been revived…..

Flashback"

"Mai……mai, wake up!." I said to a figure lying down on a cold black floor.

She opened her eyes, and saw me

She blurted out a name that I thought she will never know.

"Gene" she said there was silence for a while but I snapped back to reality, well not exactly reality you know what I mean.

"Mai, how did you know my real name?" I asked. While helping her stand

"I have known from the beginning Eugene Davis, but you prefer to be called gene, right" she asked, I nodded.

"What else do you know?" I asked

"That you have a brother named Oliver Davis, he is known as the great Professor Oliver Davis that has the strongest PK, you and the Davis couple gave him the nickname noll, but I called him naru."

"You were adopted by the Davis couple because they couldn't have a child of their own….." she paused

"You were hit by a car and died. The driver that killed you was scared and she hit you again. She put you in a black plastic and throws you into the lake. The same lake, you are looking to now." She said. I looked and she was right the scenery change, it was a lake.

"Gene, can I ask you something?"

"Sure"

"Do you want to live again and be at your brother's side?" she asked while sitting down patting the grass besides her signaling to sit beside her.

I sat beside her; I stayed silent for a while. She placed her head on my shoulder, while I placed mine atop her head.

"Yes, I want to see my idiotic of a brother again and my parents." I said while I let a silent tear fall from my eyes.

"Then, I'll grant that wish of yours gene" she said

"What do you mean, mai?" but when I looked back she was gone. Suddenly I was near the lake, in the real world. I saw someone coming near the lake, I looked closely, it was a girl, and she was with a man and a woman. They have brown hair. But what caught my eyes was the teenage girl in the middle she had long straight brown hair that reached till her waist. Just like the woman beside her.

When they were 10 inches away from the lake I saw how she looked like. I was surprised to see, it…it was mai. Mai came forward while the two just remained in their usual place.

"Gene, I'll grant your wish now." She said

'Wait, mai, there must be something in return for you to revive me, so don't"

She looked sad. But she assured me that there isn't any after effect. So I agreed. Suddenly mai was enveloped in a bright light, and then white angel wings sprouted from her back. I was awed with it. She looked like an angel no a goddess. She went nearer to the lake she flew above the lake and she used telekinesis to bring my body up from the bottom of the lake. After a couple of seconds my body was beside her. She went back to where she was before and I was engulfed in a blue light. She reached out for my hand which I obeyed. My soul went back to my body, she used some of her powers to let me age a little and she used her healing abilities to heal the wounds that I was inflicted from the accident. When she unwrapped me from the plastic bag, I only looked like I was sleeping. That's when I opened my eyes for the first time in a while. She gave me a sad smile, and told me something before I passed out. When I woke up again, I was inside the hospital. I was discharged and I came to find you. It seems I was in a coma for 3months."

End of flashback

"Gene, what did mai tell you, before you passed out?" noll asked

"She told me the price to revive someone"

"So there was a price?" asked Lin

"Yes"

"What is it gene, what was the price" noll asked

"She told me 'I'm sorry gene, there is a price for this, and it is my memory being 'taniyama mai'"

"What do you mean by that" asked Lin

"It means that she will forget her memories of her past, being mai, when she first met us and her friends she will forget, forget everything" said noll

"Gene you said that someone was with her when she came to the lake, didn't she?" asked noll

"Yes, two of them they looked somewhat related to mai with their brown hair and eyes."

"It seems that mai didn't tell us the truth about her family." Said noll out loud

"You can't blame her, you didn't tell her the truth either." I retorted

"Gene will you help me find mai?" he asked

"Of course."

'We need to call father and mother. We need to tell them everything" he said

"Your right"

Lin dialed the number and then someone answered, we put the phone in speaker.

"Hello, Davis residence" said a very familiar voice

"Hello mother" said noll

"Oh noll, how have you been?"

"I've been fine mother, mother is father there?" he asked

"Yes, he's beside me, why?"

"Put the phone in speaker." There was a click sound it means the speaker is on.

"Hello, noll is something wrong?" our father asked

"I need to tell you something about gene."

"Gene? You found him?" father asked

"Yes, and he's here beside me." He said, noll told me to say something

"Hello, father, mother, how have you been" is said in my cheerful voice

There was silence……

"Ge-gene "said martin Davis

"You're alive?" said Luella Davis

"Yes" I said

"This isn't noll is it?" Said martin

"No father, gene really is alive, he's been revived" noll said

"It's true, professor, gene really is here."

"How come, who revived him?" asked martin, while I heard mother crying from the phone.

I told him everything, noll and I told them that we need to stay in Japan for a while to find mai.

They agreed and they even told us that they will be coming to Japan for vacation to help us.

After that, we were occupied with researching on mai's background and her family……..
