Protector of SPR chapter 5

Alright here you go and thanks for the lovely reviews I really do enjoy reading them. Please R&R.

"Gene." I breathed. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. he had stopped appearing in my dreams when Naru put his body to rest when he went back to England. But the again I'm not in my dream world. I had just been exorcised or cleansed what ever way you want to look at it. but why would Gene be here? Was I supposed to stay with him forever? My heart speed up a bit at the thought. What if I really do fall in love with him? The Naru's statement about me loving him would be true. But would it really matter? I would have to stay here anyways. No I wouldn't be able to love Gene. He was like an older brother to me… and a best friend. It would never be possible to love him in that way.

All these thoughts passed through my head in seconds. My body or spiritual body felt different from before. More… light in a sense. I could feel power running through were my blood would had been. Almost like that energy that was radiating from Naru when we were stuck in that cave with the god. But it felt different from Naru's. or even mine. It was lighter but more powerful.

I had almost forgot that Gene was standing in front of me. So when I looked up it kind of startled me. I shook my head to clear the thoughts away. "Gene what are you doing here?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.

"Mai its good to see you again." He said with that heart-stopping smile that I always loved to see. It always brought me joy to see it when I new I was going to see a horrible memory of a ghost or something of the likes. " to answer your question, I'm here to guide you, or to teach you how to use your powers. You see Mai you have powers that go beyond the supernatural. And you need to learn how to use these powers in order to protect your friends from the dangers they will face on cases in both the near and fare future."

"But I was just cleansed. Aren't I supposed to be going to a better place? I mean if you haven't noticed, I'm kinda dead. I said with confusion evident in my voice. What's going on? What does he mean I'm supposed to protect them? "Gene what is going on?"

He laughed a little. I guess I was making some sort of face. "Mai you shed your body. You did die but you were going to die soon anyways. Well your body was going to die. What I mean is that you had to get rid of your body. Or else your powers would have overloaded you whole existence. And then you wouldn't be here right now. Your purpose in life is to protect the people you love. So you got rid of your body inorder to be able to use your powers with out destroying your whole spirit. There are not many people like you in the world Mai. You are special."

I looked at him in complete confusion. "So what your saying is that I got rid of my body so I could use powers that I didn't even know that I had. And now I have to learn to use them, in order to protect everyone?"

"Yes that's essentially it." he replied with a grin. "Sorry I was having a hard time trying to find the words to describe what was going on. I guess I confused you."

"Ya just kind of." I smiled back at him. "So what happens now? I mean I already learned how to use my powers or at least the basics of them."

He smiled gently now. "No Mai. The only reason you could do that was because you were able to accesses the little bit of energy you had left over from your body. Now that you don't you'll have to learn how to use those powers and every other power you have all over again. You have to learn to accesses the spiritual power you have. Its going to be extremely hard though. And its going to be very time consuming as well. Along with the other things such as fatigue, and you'll need a lot of patience."

"Alright. But you said I wasn't dead but my body was. Does that mean I can't go back to my body ever again? And I won't be able to live with everyone ever again?" I asked slightly panicked. But also excited that I would still be able to contact everyone and talk to them. But it would also take a lot in order to do so.

"You will be able to create another body but you may not be able to for a long time it could take years for you to be able to do that. So for now you'll have to sit back and watch them go through their daily lives and learn to interact with them with basic things such as writing and stuff like that. But you wont be able to do that right away." You be able to start to make the room shake at first but that's about it. Well for the outside world anyways. You will have better luck contacting them through their dream world. But because your not really a spirit Masako won't be able to see you and Lin won't be able to sense you through his shiki."

"I see." I said. Contemplating everything. "THIS IS SO COOL!" I yelled spinning around in a circle.

"Glad you think so" laughed Gene.

"Alright so shall we go and see what everyone is up to then?" I asked. This was going to be great. I was still going to be able to talk and see my friends. Not only that but I was going to be able to be helpful to the cases and instead of everyone protecting me I was finally going to be able to protect them. And I couldn't wait to see the reactions I was going to be able to get out them this time.

Ya I'll edit it and the last 2 chapters later when I have time to. Anyways R&R please
