Chapter 13
(this is the actual chapter thirteen the last one was chapter 12 I kinda got them mixed up sorry) Alright lets see what I can do with this story shall we? I think I'll keep up the very out of character characters. I'm still not to keen on this story but I got a few protests and I finally figured out how to look at my traffic stats and I had over 8000 veiws… and their still growing…so that made me feel really guilty… so I wrote this chapter for you all. Hopefully its better than the others. I haven't been writing any stories lately so I may suck like always… but hey summer is almost hear and I need another reason to procrastinate in my studying for my last exam tomorrow. So let me know what you guys think of this chapter. And please let me know what I need to change. Alright everyone who still wants to read this story… here it is.
The poor wall. I hope it was ok or else Naru would have a fit. They rushed in after looking around for minute. All their faces held a look of absolute confusion over them. I silently chuckled at them and kept quiet as I watched them.
"I could have sworn I had heard Mai's voice come from in here." Said Monk. He looked sad when he said my name and my theoretic heart hurt when I saw this.
"That's because you did." I said as my voice echoed slightly.
They looked shocked at the sound as they looked around the room as if determining where it was coming from. I found this interesting because Lin, Naru and Madoka who was standing with the others were looking almost directly at me.
"Mai?" Ayako asked. Her hand going to her enlarged abdomen as if to hold the baby growing in side her.
"Yes it's me Ayako."
Her face paled a little but I knew she was strong enough to fight fainting.
"Where are you Mai? Your voice sounds like its coming from everywhere at once." John was looking closer to where I was but not like Naru or the other two were.
"I'm in the farthest chair in front of Naru's desk." I replied. Why would my voice sound like that to them? "I wonder why you guys can't seem to focus on my voice as well as Naru, Lin or Madoka?"
Everyones eyes still seemed to wander around the room as if they couldn't believe what I had told them but they always were brought back to chair where I had said I was.
"Yes it is quite odd." I looked to Masako as she said this. "I can't even sense you presence."
"Why haven't you passed on yet Mai?" this was Monk.
"Why are you upset? Aren't you glad you can talk to me?" I fiend hurt and laced it onto my voice.
"No. I'm glad I can talk to you. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't upset that you aren't at rest yet. I want you to be comfortable and happy."
"I know you can't see this but I'm smiling at you."
He chuckled a bit. "Why is that?"
"I'm trying to get control over my powers again. It's a miracle that I'm able to even speak to you. Though I have found that when I am experiencing strong amounts of emotions I am able to become a physical being. I won't be able to explain it to you more until I find out more information on it."
"Is that why we were able to see you in England when we were there?" asked Madoka in an unsure voice. I quickly remember her reaction to wanting to touch me but being too afraid to.
"Yes. I think it is. You see I had not meant to go to England, but because when I open what could be more or less described as a portal or door to the real world I have to think about where I want to go. And it just so happens I usually think about Naru and the SPR team. There for where ever Naru is I end up going there as well. Though that one time that I was freaking out because I didn't expect to end up there and I had thought that I had done something wrong. And if that were the case you probably wouldn't hear me right now." I answered. Where that had come from I didn't know. So just assumed that it was basic knowledge I had picked up from what Gene had told me and from what I had learned through what little experience I have.
"Mai I think that is the most intelligent thing I have ever heard come out of your mouth." Said Naru with that signature smirk on his face.
I clenched my fists as I stared at him with glare could almost be compared with ice. I could feel my face heat up which to me was one of the most odd experiences of my life because it didn't feel like a warm heat like you get when you get embarrassed but instead it felt like my face had warmed up to about 100 degrees then cooled down so much that it felt like I had hypothermia. I shivered but I could tell that in actuality I was still red with anger. "You…! you jerk! I guess time really doesn't change people! I mean come on at least I'm stuck being a teen but the least you could do is grow up! Stupid idiotic narcissistic jerk!" I grumbled the last part. Everyone started to laugh and I couldn't help but laugh as well. It felt great to be like this again. "Why don't we move into the sitting room?" I suggested and they complied.
Once everyone was sitting I went into the kitchen reached for the kettle that was ever present on the stove, only to have my hand pass right through it. I growled when I noticed this and Ayako came into the kitchen to see what was wrong. She looked around the small room for me but I knew she wouldn't be able to find me.
"I'm over here."
"Your going to have to be more specific Mai." She deadpanned
"By the stove in front of the kettle."
She slowly walked towards where I had described carefully. I felt like she was trying to avoid stepping on a land mine or something. Slowly ever so slowly she made it to where I was standing and reached a hand in front of her. I felt her hand hit my stomach and then go right through me. it kind of felt weird in a way. Not like when I walk through walls but it felt like an annoying little itch the you can't scratch because its on the inside of you. If that makes any sense at all.
She squeaked and pulled back as if she had just felt an electric chock go right through her.
"What is it? Did I hurt you?" I asked as panic rode in my voice.
"No. No. you didn't hurt me at all. It just felt like I was placing my hand in a bucket of goo and my hand was being sucked in while simultaneously being shocked." She replied. Well i guess my guess wasn't to far off.
"Mai what is taking so long. I want my tea." I heard the narcissist call from the sitting room.
"Oh don't get your panties in a twist. I'm trying here!" wow he was still as impatient as ever. "And that doesn't mean that I'll be able to even make it so don't get your hopes up either!"
"Now, now, you two we're all together now so we shouldn't fight." I heard john say as I looked back to the kettle that was still on the stove. I tried again and summoned some of my energy as I reached for the object of my desire. My hand didn't go through right away but it did become transparent once again. My hopes rise a little and I tried for the last time to make sure I still had enough energy to stay and talk. My hand once again touched it. This time for a little longer. But once again I let my emotions get the better of me and when I had a firm grip on the handle I let it go to fast and the damn thing landed on the ground. With a large clang I heard Ayako swear and I noticed that it had hit said women on her foot.
"Oh my god! Ayako are you alright?" I nearly cried. Why was I so stupid? I should have been paying attention from the start.
"Yes. I'm fine." She grunted through gritted teeth.
"What the hell is going on in here?" I looked up to see monk standing in the small doorway that lead to kitchen.
"I'm sorry! I had a grip on the handle and then my control slipped and I dropped it. And then it landed on Ayako's foot. I'm so sorry!" I said really fast. I knew I was babbling so I stopped myself before I could go on any longer.
I looked up to see them with smiles on their faces and I looked down to see if I had once again made myself visible to them but I was disappointed to see that I was not solid.
"What are you smiling at?" I was annoyed beyond belief at this and it could be heard in my voice. And of course they could hear this so it only made them smile wider. Which only frustrated me more.
"It good to hear you like that again that's all. Even if it was because of my foot." Said Ayako.
Taking a deep breath, I calmed myself down so as to keep my temper at bay. I was still a teenager after all. "maybe you should do the tea. I don't think it would be a good idea to have the pregnant women get hurt anymore." I said to monk and he nodded after looking a little shocked that I knew the information.
Ayako and I walked back to the sitting area and sat down. I looked around the room to find that everyone was looking in my general direction. I knew what was coming.
I can't belive I just wrote that. Its over dramatic. Oh well. May be I'll keep adding to it randomly when I have nothing better to do or I want to write something dramatic. I'll just use this story to do so. Yep that sounds like a plan to me. anyways please review.
