DISCLAIMER: I don't own Ghost Hunt!

The pain was unbearable.

Gene wasn't kidding when he said it would hurt a lot. I could feel warm blood dripping from my arm and panicked voice coming in and out of focus.

"What is . . ."

"How"

"What's going . . ."

"I don't know, Lin get the . . ."

"Wake…"

"Wake up"

The voice got louder this team until it was right next to my ear "Wake up Mai".

I jerked awake with a scream as the pain increased in my arm. My back arched and my muscles tightened on my arm. Tears were leaking down my face and I couldn't see anyone or where I was.

I was feeling disorientated as I blinked my eyes and tried to focus. I was shaking badly and some one was holding me, I didn't think it was for comfort but because I was screaming and moving too much with the pain. I was just making it worse for myself.

"Calm down Mai, Ayako's on the way please calm down". Bou-san rocked me back and forth whispering calming words in my ear whilst the tall man with the long black hair worked on my arm.

I flinched and whimpered as he pressed too hard making him glance up at me apologetically. It wasn't long before he bandaged my arm, the bleeding didn't seem to want to stop.

Bou-san helped me sit up and I sat staring unseeingly at the table in front of us.

"Mai? Can you tell us what happened?" I glanced up at the boy who must be Oliver, Gene's twin.

The thought of getting Gene back but having him not know who I am hurt my heart so much that tears sprang to my eyes. I glanced away from her and shook my head quickly. I really didn't want to talk about my dream.

"Was it a dream?" I jumped startled and looked towards Bou-san.

I licked my dry lips and moved hesitantly away from him "how?"

"Ayako told me on the phone just before you came round, Mai you were sleeping fitfully then suddenly that appeared and you were screaming loudly" he hesitated for a moment "you were screaming for your Mother" I flinched and looked away with wide eyes.

I was shaking now with fear of the dream, fear of those Werewolves. They knew my name, they killed my parents, they hurt me somehow whilst I was dreaming, they said they would see me soon.

"Oh god!" I whispered, my hand flying to cover my mouth and my breathing increased. I felt Bou-san try to come closer to me but I flinched and jumped away from him. He held up his hands in defence but didn't move.

I was sobbing loudly now and I was starting to realise I was having difficulty breathing.

"Mai?" Bou-san tried to move closer again but I screamed and stumbled backwards till my back hit a wall. I slid down it and grabbed my hair whilst rocking back and forth.

"We need to do something, she needs to calm down"

"Is she seriously doing this? She's never shown any signs of power before"

I heard the voices shouting but all I could think of was my parents. I had to find my parents. I needed Gene.

/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/ FLASHBACK /\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/

It was a tiring day at work and I couldn't wait to fall into bed and sleep. There had been another comatose person brought in today. Mai didn't know why but she felt she needed to help him, she felt close to him. The thought of him opening his eyes and showing her his emotions made her heart warm for the first time since her parents left to research for their book.

She sighed and dropped her back inside the door as she closed it behind her. The house was silent as usual as of late. She growled slightly in frustration she shouldn't think about her parents. She felt hollow at the thought of being alone forever.

She wondered what it would be like to be in a coma, would she be doing anything or would there just be nothing. Nothing at all. Just her alone, all alone because no one wanted her. Her parents hadn't come back, was it her fault.

She felt her body shake with the sobs she wouldn't let come. She yanked slightly on her long hair and moved towards her bedroom. The house was dark, so dark and silent that Mai felt scared but she couldn't turn on the lights because then she would see all of her parents belongings.

She reached her room and dropped down on to her bed. She felt a strange pull in the back of her mind and her eyes slid shut.

She couldn't see anything besides the darkness, she bit her lip and glanced around worriedly. Her arms were wrapped around herself "hello?"

She shouted and shouted waiting for a reply. She jumped when she heard a male voice shout back "hello, is some one there?"

She jumped up slightly feeling her heart soar "yes, I'm here".

She heard rushing footsteps and then everything began to lighten. "Oh, thank God there's someone else here I don't understand what's going on and then I was all alone in darkness. I just don't know what's happening. Do you?"

Mai couldn't help but stare in shock "no way, how can you be here you're in a coma! I was there when they brought you in".

She watched as the tall mans head tipped to the side "hmm, so I'm not dead. That's good but it is kind of tragic that I'm stuck here".

He glanced at her again "who are you?"

She watched him open mouthed before she shook herself and held her hand out "Mai".

He smiled and instead of shaking her hand he pulled her into a hug "I'm Gene".

His voice made her shiver, he had an accent I think it was English but I couldn't be sure.

"I don't understand what's going on".

He shrugged and looked around "beats me".

Suddenly I felt the same pull that had happened in the back of my head before and we were zooming past images and images of things and people until we stopped. We both stared at each other shaken before turning to see what was happening.

There was a young girl about thirteen curled up in the corner of a dark, damp room. She was shaking and rocking back and forth. I hesitantly stepped closer and heard her murmuring "Mommy, please find me" she was crying and I felt my heart break for her.

I went to reach for her but I fell through her and I yelped in shock before jumping back up and staring at her.

"I don't understand what's going on?"

Gene was looking at the girl with worry and pity but he glanced at me as I spoke "I believe you're having a vision of some kind. My family research this type of thing so if I ever wake up I'll help you".

I glanced at him worried "a vision, so this is actually happening" I glanced down at the girl in horror. Her clothes were ripped and barely covering her shaking body. I noticed she was also covered in dirt and her hair was sticking out of her ponytail all over the place.

Gene nodded and said sadly "yes, seems this must have either happened or will be happening some time soon".

"Is there anyway to help her?"

"I . . . I'm not sure Mai, there's no way you can do anything on your own and if you tell people you saw it in a vision they will lock you away for being nuts!"

I nodded sadly "but . . . I have to do something" my voice cracked as I watched the girl cry and call for her Mommy and Daddy. She reminded me so much of me, I still cried for my parents.

"Well maybe you can look her up some how, like I said she might be fine or this might have happened in the past".

"Why is she here?" I glanced around the room and realised it looked like cell. There was a mattress on the floor that looked to warn to even go near and a bucket in the corner. In front of the girl was a door, a large metal door that looked creepy enough without the two black eyes that were looking through.

I stifled a gasp and jumped away from the door. There was some one out there.

"She was kidnapped" I new it, something was telling me I was right, she had been taken already and there was nothing I could do "it's too late".

"Mirandaaaaaaa" a cold voice said in a sing song voice followed by a low chuckle. The young girl, Miranda stared at the door with such hatred and fear that it startled me.

"Gene, it's too late. I don't want to see this" I was shaking as I watched the large metal door open and a man enter.

"Tut, tut, Miranda. You shouldn't look so messy when you go to see your master. Lets get you cleaned up". The man was tanned with short golden shaved hair, his eyes were a dark brown that they looked black from where I was standing.

"Such a pretty girl like you should be in pretty dresses" the creepy man knelt down in front of the shaking girl and stroked her cheek making her quiver and whimper under his touch.

I clenched my fists as I had the urge to do something, anything to help but I knew I couldn't. It had already happened. I was too late so why was I seeing this now? Why was I even seeing this?

The creepy man cackled manically at her whimper and grabbed her arm roughly dragging her to her feet. I let out a small whimper of my own as I watched the girl scream and fight with no use. I felt arms go around me and looked up at Gene's unhappy face.

"You don't need to see anymore Mai, there's nothing we can do" I nodded and buried my head in his chest, flinching every time I heard the small girl scream, I didn't want to know what was happening the screaming was heart breaking enough. Suddenly the screaming and maniacs laughter stopped and we were left in silence.

I glanced up at Gene "I'm going to help you Gene, I'm going to help you wake up".

He smiled slightly down at me and gave me a squeeze before letting go "and I'm going to help you here for as long as I can". I nodded and smiled falling into the darkness and waking up to find myself flaked out on my bed in my own dark and empty house.

/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/ END FLASHBACK /\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/

I jumped when I felt some one grab my hand, they squeezed and offered comfort and I glanced up to see the same man who had bandaged my arm trying to calm me down.

"You must calm down, you might hurt some one or yourself. Can you breathe? That's it breath slowly in then slowly out. You've got it. Good girl. That's it". I took the man that Bou-san had introduced before as Lin by surprise by wrapping my arms around him and holding on for dear life.

I heard a door open and voices but didn't pay attention as Lin rubbed my back soothingly, he had tensed at first with the hug but soon relaxed and held onto me. I was guessing this wasn't usually his thing and that I might have to apologise to him when I had calmed down.

"Mai, Darling was it another Vision?" I hesitantly looked up from Lin's now wet shirt and looked at Ayako.

"They're gone" my voice was hoarse from the tears and I noticed Kazuya enter the room with a glass of water. He knelt down next to me and Lin and handed me the cup. His usual cold eyes held slight amusement as he glanced at Lin. I glanced up at Lin and immediately let go.

"I'm sorry" I blurted out as I looked at him and he glanced down at me confused.

"For what?"

I smiled slightly "you don't seem like the type of guy who's used to comforting or hugging". He blushed slightly but nodded once.

Kazuya beckoned me to drink the cup before he glanced up at Ayako "Are you the nurse?"

I took a drink of water and sat silently as Ayako asked what had happened. She hesitantly walked up to me and knelt down next to Lin who was still had one hand on my back.

"Mai, please tell me what happened" her voice was so soft and loving that I felt more tears come to my eyes.

I stared at her for a moment before saying "they're gone".

"Who Mai?"

"My parents" I heard Ayako gasp.

"What do you mean sweetheart, I thought they were at home" I glanced at Bou-san as he spoke and shook my head.

"They went to research for their new book, this ones on wolves" I shuddered as an image of the wolves came to mind "that … that was months ago before Gene came into the Hospital".

I glanced up at Kazuya who had paled "he wants you to go to him, to help him wake up. He . . . he said Goodbye to me" I felt a tear slide down my face "said he wouldn't remember me" I looked at Lin "go save him".

"Mai" Ayako's voice broke with emotion "what do you mean they've been gone for months. Why didn't you tell anyone? And what do you mean Gene, do you mean Eugene Davies the man in the coma, the one you said you know from your dreams?"

I just nodded and stared at Ayako "you're all I have, you and Gene are all I have. If I … if I told someone I'd have been taken away. I might never have seen you again and I promised I would help Gene wake up".

"But Mai, we could have looked for your parents. They could still be-"

I cut her off with a scream making everyone jump "no! they're gone. I saw it. I watched my own Mother die. Horrible, horrible creatures like Werewolves but some how different" I looked down at the cup that was shaking along with me "they knew my name and they hurt me" I furrowed my brows in confusion "how can you be hurt in a dream?" I glanced at my arm "they said they would see me soon".

I glanced at everyone in fear "does that mean they're coming for me?"

"What do you mean you see my brother in dreams? I'm not sure I understand, where is he?"

It was Ayako who replied to him "he's in a coma at the hospital and from the sounds of things he's waiting for you".

"I want to see him! We need to get this young lady to the hospital anyway. Lin can you carry her to the van, I think she's in slight shock".

I felt someone lift me up but I was in my own memories, willing everything to just be a dream.

It wasn't long before the van pulled up to the hospital and we were all walking towards Gene's room. They had wanted me to get my arm checked out first but I needed to see if Gene would wake.

When the door to Gene's room opened I walked in and smiled sadly to the sleeping boy.

I reached out and took his hand "I kept my promise, I brought you Oliver or Noll or Idiot Scientist as you sometimes call him" I heard an intake of breath from near the door and realised it must have just hit Oliver Davies that he had truly found his brother.

I watched as he walked slowly towards the bed and I stepped politely back when he hesitantly reached out for his other hand. I let go of his right hand just as Noll took his left, they started to glow white and I stared at Noll as he glanced at me warily.

I watched amazed and happy as Gene's eyes flickered open "N . . . Noll?" he croaked.

I reached out and handed him a glass of water as Noll helped him sit up. Gene glanced at me gratefully then furrowed his brow "do I know you?"

I bit my lip to stop the whimper from escaping and smiled "no" I said "no, I'm just the nurses assistant. I'll go get the nurse". I didn't look at Lin, Oliver and Gene as I exited the room.

Bou-san and Ayako were waiting outside "What's wrong Mai is everything alright?"

I forced a smile and nodded "he's awake Ayako you might want to go check on him, I'll get Emi to get me a doctor for my arm".

She nodded but still looked at me in worry "alright, I'll come find you afterwards. We really need to talk young lady".

I flinched thinking about that upcoming conversation but nodded and walked away leaving the feeling of happiness behind.
