DISCLAIMER: I don't own Ghost Hunt!
I could hear people talking but my eyes wouldn't open. No matter how much I tried they still felt heavy, too heavy to open.
"Is she ok?"
"I can't believe you hit her with your car Mum" I was positive I recognised that voice.
"I . . . I didn't mean to!" a distraught voice said.
"She's perfectly fine, just has a little concussion" Ayako! What was Ayako doing in England?
Did I really get hit by a car? I would have thought that would have been more painful.
I groaned and moved slightly only to gasp at the pain pounding in my head. I squeezed my eyes shut tight before opening them, only to close them again with the blinding light.
"Shhh . . . she's waking up" I heard shuffling and footsteps get closer and frowned in my sleepiness.
I felt confused and disorientated as I slowly opened my eyes again. I blinked in shock as my caramel orbs stared straight into dark blue ones. I furrowed my brows at them in confusion.
"erm . . ."
I blinked again and looked around I saw a very worried blonde woman, she looked English and the man next to her looked English as well, he had brown hair and blue eyes. He smiled gently at me whilst the woman just peered at me and bit her nails in worry.
Just behind the boy with the blue orbs was some one I would recognise in my sleep. Of course that could have been because that was where he used to visit me. He was grinning widely and I gasped before pushing my self up and backing away from them all.
I glanced around the room warily as I backed against the wall away from them all. They were all peering at me with great interest and it was starting to make me feel self conscious.
Gene stepped forwards so he was next to his twin and smiled gently at me as I looked at him warily.
"Hi Mai" he waved slightly before nudging his twin who was still staring at me.
"Oh . . . erm yeah Hello" I nearly giggled at the dark look he sent towards Gene.
I smiled slightly at Gene and waved back whilst saying shyly "hi" before looking at Gene's twin, I narrowed my eyes in concentration and thought back "you're Oliver?"
He nodded once "well, at least she has some brain cells left after not looking when crossing the road".
I glared at his back as he turned around with a smirk and gritted my teeth muttering "jerk!"
He waved it of behind his back with his hand showing me that he had heard but he really didn't care.
I nearly growled at him in anger but my confusion came back as I suddenly heard two people shout "Mai!" and the next thing I knew I was squashed between Monk and Ayako.
I gasped and they backed away muttering 'sorry'. I turned to Gene who was stood a little behind them and winked before turning back to Ayako and Bou-san.
"I'm sorry but do I know you?" I asked innocently. I nearly felt bad when there smiles dropped and they stared at me in confusion.
"Mai, it's us Ayako and Monk. Don't you remember us?" Bou-san was staring at me in shock as I turned my head to the side and examined them.
"Hmmm . . ." I grinned "course I do" I shook my head, flinching at the sudden pain in my head again "I've got a banging headache".
Ayako stopped her panicking to glare at me "What are you doing in England?"
"I'm on holiday what do you think I'm here for?" I turned towards the two people who were in the room I didn't know "I'm sorry I do not know your names".
The man stepped forward "I'm Martin Davis and this is my wife Luella" Luella looked so sad and worried that I smiled brightly at her.
"Well thank you for looking after me but I truly must be going . . ." I trailed off as I noticed Ayako glare at me.
"You will not be going anywhere young lady! Just what are you playing at disappearing without a word to anyone! Especially after what was said in the hospital".
I flinched and grimaced at the mention of the hospital but glared back "I am doing what I need to do to find out the truth! What are you doing here?"
She flinched at my tone before sighing "I know I'm not your Mother Mai but I still worry about you so much that you might as well be my daughter".
My gaze softened and I turned to look at the Davis family on the other side of the room. "I just . . . I need the truth Ayako so I'm going to do everything I can to find it".
Oliver Davis stepped forwards "so you are going to go check all the forests just to see if you can find a bunch of Werewolves and then ask them politely if they can tell you about your parents".
I flinched at his tone before glaring at him "This has nothing to do with you" I turned to look at Ayako and Bou-san "it has nothing to do with any of you, only one of you ever promised to help me with my parents and well . . ."
I quickly glanced at Gene before looking away "he doesn't remember".
I blinked away tears and shook my head "I can't let any of you get hurt because of me and I am definitely not stopping searching until I find answers".
Monk chuckled as the tall man with the black hair that covered his eyes came in followed by a woman with pink hair "you don't have a choice Mai, you're stuck with us".
I smiled slightly "bou-san I only know you and Ayako I don't know anyone else in this room".
"Now that's not true is it?" the cold voice made me flinch as I turned to look at Oliver.
"What do you mean?" I said equally cold making him lift an eyebrow and his mouth twitch in amusement.
"You know Gene and knowing Gene means you get the help from his family whether you like it or not".
I furrowed my brows "he doesn't remember so how can I know him?"
Gene stepped forwards making me glance at him warily "I may not remember Mai but I still have this feeling that I want to help you" he paused before exchanging a glance with his twin "that we need to help you".
"Need to?"
He nodded and was about to talk when Luella Davis walked forward and sat on the end of my bed "you have given us back our son and we thank you so much. I agree with everyone else on this you will need our help to complete whatever task you are trying to achieve".
I stared at her whilst thinking over what everyone had said "but I . . . I can't repay any of you for your help, I don't even know where to start, I've been to Yuudai, then up to a place in Scotland and then down to here" I paused "where ever here is".
I heard a groan and turned to look at Monk "Mai! You go all over the place without even knowing where you are?"
I blinked "erm yeah".
He shook his head and sighed whilst everyone else just stared at me as though I had two heads. I shrugged and turned to the woman who had entered with Lin.
"Hi, I'm Mai. It seems that no one has introduced you to me yet".
She stepped forwards with a bright smile and surprised me by pulling me into a hug "oh, I'm Madoka, I just want to thank you for bringing Gene back to us, by doing that you have brought my fiancé Lin home" she turned to smile warmly at the tall man with the black hair covering his face and I smiled slightly.
"It was a pleasure but I really didn't do anything" I smiled slightly before scanning the room self consciously. Everyone was staring at me and I was unsure of what to do.
"Oh Pish Posh, you did everything" Luella chirped up and I bit my lip to stop myself from shouting at everyone to leave me alone.
Martin stepped forward so that he was stood beside the twins "I'm afraid my family is right, You are stuck with us all Miss Taniyama".
I stared at them all one by one before sighing "Mai . . . please call me Mai".
Madoka and Luella squealed before pulling me into a hug "Thank God you took the help because we would have forced you to anyway". They exchanged a grin and I turned to look at Gene and Oliver with wide eyes but one was grinning widely and the other was smirking at my discomfort.
I glared at Oliver and he just lifted an eyebrow whilst looking highly amused "Jerk" I muttered.
"Now Mai I want you to tell us everything . . . and I mean everything from your parents to your dreams to why you are here of all places".
I stiffened at the mention of my parents and turned to look at Ayako "now?"
She glared slightly and I noticed her left eye twitch in irritation "yes now!"
Bou-san took Ayako's hand gently "be nice Ayako, let the poor girl breath before she tells us".
Mai sighed and shuffled back to the corner of the bed so she was far away from everyone. She made sure to have her back against the wall and the rest of the room in sight, making sure to keep everyone in front of her.
She bit her lip as her eyes filled with tears "you may want to find a seat for this".
