Chapter Seven
Chapter one : Oliver Davis/Naru
It's been a long time since I found my dead brother and leaving to go to Japan. I was happy that I found my brother and at the same time sad, I don't know why I was feeling like this. But I kept whatever I felt under my mask that no one sees though accept one person.
That person didn't show up when I left and when I called everyone about reopening SPR I got a hold of everyone but one person. I knew I should have come back before now but I had to be home and talk to my parents and sort things out. Lin never said anything.
I have only been back for about three days and I already have a case. I had Lin call the others and Ayako seemed upset at me because Mai left and no one knew what happened to her. I had ask Ayako if she had talk to Mai since she left but no one said a word about it.
Everyone was outside the club. We were meeting a Mr. Drake. He didn't give his last name when he talked with my father about what was going on. But my father told me that if I came back to Japan that if there was a case that he found he would send it to me. Yet like normal he sent me back to Japan with a case.
When I walk up to the others they all turned and look at me.
"Naru it's been a long time. So I see this is the place where we are meeting the guy?"
"Yes Monk. This is we're meeting him."
Monk looked at the club and said, "so this club? This club takes me back. I used to perform here all the time. So let's head inside and see what this Drake guy need help with then Shall we?"
Everyone walked in but what they didn't expect was to see a certain Brown hair and brown eyed girl up on stage singing.
Please, please, forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And barely conscious, you'll say to no one
"Isn't something missing?
You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
"My gods isn't that Mai up on stage?" Said Ayako
Everyone else looked at Naru and was frozen in his spot while Mai was singing, he could have sworn that Mai was looking right at them.
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?
Please, please, forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?
They sat down at the bar and Lin looked at the bartender and said, "Can you get Mr. Drake we would like to talk to him about a few things please?"
"Of course, I see that you guys are talking a liking to Mai. She sings really good, I'm Jacky by the way."
Monk looked at Jacky and said, "So I hear this club had changed over time. Could you tell me more about this club?"
"Just let me call Drake down so you guys can talk to him."
Jacky called Drake and Monk started to talk to Jacky and said, "This club is special, its for kids who are having a hard time in school, home, depressed or worst. We sing and play songs that's not normal to play in any club. Take Mai, up there for example, she singing a song called Missing by Evanescence. We mostly sing songs by different artist. Mai sings all English songs with me and another guy. And also we have a group that sings jpop and kpop. But they don't sing a whole lot because they don't like to sing songs like that."
And if I bleed, I'll bleed
Knowing you don't care
And if I sleep just to dream of you
I'll wake without you there
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
When Naru zoned back into reality he noticed that Drake walked over and said, "I take it you guys are here about my Aunts house?"
"Yes. But I also would like to know if I could talk to some of your workers and any worker who have been to you aunts house?"
"Sorry but the person that walks in and out of my aunt's house is the girl who just got off the stage."
They all watched as Mai walked over to Drake and they talk about something and Mai then said, "IF they want to talk to me they can stop in tomorrow. But I need to go. Bye Drake."
She walked away from the group. Yasuhara looked at everyone and said, "I think we should call it a night. Big boss I'll start looking for any information if that's okay."
Naru only nodded his head as he got up and left the club. He couldn't believe that Mai had changed so much and that this Night club was different than any of the others.
"Noll are you okay?" called Lin.
"I'm not sure. But Mai seems like she doesn't want nothing to do with me. I wonder what happened to her and why she didn't want nothing to do with us. I mean she was friendly with everyone at one time. What happened after left? "
"I don't know. But let's call it a night and think about this later."
Mai's Journal:
I can't believe that they showed up at the club. I knew that Drake's Aunt Lilly-Anna was having problems with ghost. I knew that he was going to look for someone to take care of things. I wish it wasn't them. I got away before they even had the chance to ask me questions. But I knew that they were going to ask me questions and at the same time I'm not sure if I wanted to face them or if I was ready to face them. Please if I do face that they wouldn't ask a lot of questions because I don't know what I would be doing anything.
Back on topic I guess. Jacky has come back and we will be performing together soon I can't wait. I miss performing with him and also with Luka. Of course all we did was covers for songs. Songs that would help the broken and those who were different. I know that feeling of being different and the kids that come to the club have an invite only, and they shared that with their friends and family because they knew that they would get help or to talk to someone. I guess that's all for now because I don't know what else to say. All Because Oliver Davis had to walk into that night club just like he walked into that school room all those days ago.
