Author's Note: Hi! Sorry about the random-ness of my posting! I haven't gotten around to picking a schedule again. Once I decide how I'm going to do it I'll let you know.

Rena: Hi! It's been a while hasn't it? I hope you're all doing fine! I'm in such a good mood!

Yes we know you are. It's because of this new case.

Rena: Yeah! Syaoran! (jumping up and down)

(Smiles) she's doing better now, oh yeah, we managed to avoid the angry crowd of cast members. (shivers) It's a good thing I have this 'Anti-Angry Characters' button.

Rena: Hey? Since when did you get that?

I dunno. A new school year a new start! My didn't start out that great. (Insert sad face) I didn't get my favorite teacher even though i was suppose to =( It makes me all sad and I have all new teachers, except for three. I hope you guys had better luck then I did.

Rena: And if you didn't, remember, life is an adventure!

Shut up

I DO NOT OWN GHOST HUNT

Chapter Three

Rena's P.O.V

I got out of bed. It was three in the morning, but, we needed to meet before we went our separate ways. Gene and I, were heading over to the club to meet up with the other. Why at suck ungodly hour? It was so that we didn't get busted. Gene climbed into my bag and I locked the door to my room and walked out the door. Hopefully no would notice that I left, if they did I was dead. I made it to the parking lot and was unchaining my bike when I noticed an extra chain that I hadn't put there. What the hell? It was hooked between the wheels so I wouldn't be able to ride it, who the hell? Naru!

"That bastard," I mumbled.

How dare he do that to my baby? My beautiful motorcycle, the snow had cleared enough that I'd be able to use it. HOW DARE HE!

"What's going on?" Gene asked.

"You're brother chained my bike, I could always pick the lock but that would take too much time,"

I took my cell phone out. There was only one thing to do at a time like this.

Call my personal stalker, just don't tell him I call him that. It was his own fault for agreeing to the job.

"Wow, he really doesn't want you to ride it does he?" Gene asked poking the lock from my bag.

"Yeah,"

"Len?"

"What's up," he sounded sleepy.

"Can you drive me? Naru chained my motorcycle, I could always pick the lock but that would take to long,"

"Alright, go to the front of the parking,"

"Okay,"

I walked to the main gate and there he was with his awesome car. Awesome, jet black car. I got goosebumps just looking at it. And boy was it fast!

"Thanks," I told him climbing into the other front seat.

"No problem," he said. "I'm your bodyguard after all,"

"You look sleepy," I told him taking in his devilish appearance.

"Takigawa was giving me hell all afternoon and I couldn't take my usual nap," he said.

"About tomorrow right?" I guessed he nodded.

"He didn't think that my dad showed me how to preform exorcisms," he told me.

"So you do know how to?" I asked he nodded.

"I'm out of practice but I'm still pretty sure that I can protect myself, besides it's fake right?" he pointed out.

"Yeah, Veronica can't do anything that would kill me," I told him.

At least, she wasn't suppose to. Still we have to be ready.

He nodded and pulled over in front of the club. we climbed out and went inside taking a staircase that led downstairs.

"Hey Kazuki," I called once I reached the last stair.

"Rena," he greeted me taking me into a hug, I waved at Bou-san, Yasu, and John.

"We'll go over this one last time," Kazuki said going into boss mode.

"Len's going with you to Kyoto and while that's going on I'll be taking the rest of my gang to Osaka and settle things there," he explained I frowned, that was the only part I didn't like. "Once that's done we'll report back to each other,"

"And if things don't go according to plan?" Takumi asked this is the first time we'd ever asked.

"Rena, you are to find Syaoran; Len you are to make sure they are safe. You three should have no problems, considering that you're not related to the Lins, so our only priority is to make sure that the twins make it safely to Tokyo again," he said.

"And you planed this out all by yourself?" I asked he smiled at me.

"Like I said you two are our priority," he told me.

"You're such an idiot," I mumbled.

What about everyone else? What about the people here? It's not as if they couldn't take care of themselves, but, I felt responsible for putting them in this situation, it was my fault, if something happened to them.

"Besides, that's if things don't go as plan which won't happen," he said.

"Right!" they answered.

How could they be so confident? I shook my head and leaned against the wall as drinks were passed out. For the first time it came to my attention that all these people in here could die because of me. Some of these people were my age, some were younger, these, were children. I felt my throat go dry. Why? Why did I drag them into this? They'd never been anything but kind to me.

"You're still worried aren't you?" Kazuki asked.

"Yup," I told him. "But, despite what I say, you'll still go ahead and do whatever you want,"

"Then why don't you just give me a good luck kiss and charm to make yourself feel better?" he suggested.

Under normal circumstances I would have smacked him but this wasn't normal circumstances. I owed Kazuki so much. And it wasn't only that. I cared about Kazuki, I wasn't in love with him, but, I did love him. Yes, maybe he was a pervert, cocky, and sometimes stupid; but, he was kind, generous, and if push came to shove he would take a bullet for everyone in this room. Kazuki had a heart of gold.

"Here," I handed him the black string bracelet I had around my hand. "About the kiss, not happening," he pouted.

"You went half way not the whole way?" he asked I shook my head. "Pwease?'

I huffed and got on my tippy toes his eyes got wide but fell a little when I kissed his cheek. I gave him an innocent look. That was all I would be able to offer Kazuki. My friendship and nothing more.

"Good luck Kazuki,"

He was debating either to be angry or not but he sighed and smiled.

"Thanks, Rena," he ruffled my hair. "I wish you would get it,"

I looked down.

"I'm sorry Kazuki, I just can't,"

I knew, but we'd never had this conversation aloud.

"It's alright I know that you like someone else but I just can't help wanting it to be different," he explained.

"I'm really sorry," I said he shook his head.

I wanted Kazuki to be happy; but he would never find that happiness with me. I wasn't the right kind of girl for Kazuki. He needed someone to depend on him, me, I wasn't like that, I was independent, and more often then not, I wanted someone who would leave me alone when I was upset. Not someone who always showered me with affection. I wanted someone to be my silent companion, that's all.

"Just come back okay?" he told me.

"Shouldn't that be my line?" I asked he smirked.

"I know I'm coming back Rena, so there's no point in saying so," he said.

"Fine, I'll came back, but you do too okay?"

"Deal,"

"We're leaving Rena," Bou-san said.

"Okay!" I called.

"See you soon," Kazuki told me.

I smiled at him and I felt my throat tighten, what if things went bad for them? He sighed and pulled me into a hug.

"Everything will be fine, next time we come hang out here, you'll bring Syaoran, you'll see," he told me I smiled and hugged him back.

"Yeah," I said. "See you," I waved and followed Len out.

"Let's hurry up tomorrow's going to be a long day," I told Len he smiled.

"Yeah you're right, god I'm already getting pissed at the amount of work I'm going to have to do," he forwned.

"Quite complaining the real work hasn't even started," I told him he laughed.

"You sure bounce back quick," he said.

"I'm just good at hiding at what I'm really feeling," I said he gave me a look.

"If you say so,"

"Just hurry up before they realize that I'm gone,"

"Yes, ma'am,"

Let's just hope that tomorrow would be better then expected.

Naru's P.O.V

I knocked on Rena's door, she needed to get up.

"Rena wake up!" I called I sighed and turned the door open.

I walked over to her bed and shook her shoulder. She was currently under the cover curled up into a little ball and the cat was no better.

"Go away," she muttered.

"Sorry but you have a job to do," I told her.

She squeezed her eyes shut but she opened them. That was first. Usually if she didn't want to wake up you'd have to fight tooth and nail to just drag her out of bed.

"Okay,"

Something must have been bothering her. She fell asleep early last night. Or she should have. I noticed the dark shadow under her eyes. It was slight but I still noticed.

"Come on, I'll let you sleep on the train ride," she smiled and sat up.

"Can I use you as a pillow?" she asked softly I smirked.

She was kind of cute when she got up in the morning. It didn't matter anyway, no was going to be there to make stupid remarks.

"Sure," I told her she crawled out of bed and stretched.

"Hurry up we're leaving in an hour," I told her she nodded.

I walked out of her room and went into the kitchen. Lin had gone downstairs to leave my bag and his, we'd take Rena's down later. Had she even made a bag? I didn't remember but she wouldn't make us wait long. I took out a bowl of cereal. My head snapped up when I heard a crash from Rena's room.

"What the hell is going on?" Lin asked walking in.

"I don't know," I admitted we walked towards her room.

"Hold still," we heard Rena say.

"No!"

Another crash; Lin opened the door and we saw her reaching under the bed.

"Please get out," she said sweetly.

There was a growl and she pulled back. Was it that cat?

"Oww, what the hell!" she was glaring at the bed and looking at her finger. "That's it you stupid cat!"

She grabbed a blanket and jumped on the bed, the cat ran out and she landed above him covering him with the blanket. She did it so presciently that I had a feeling this wasn't the first time she's done it.

"I told you to hold the fuck still!" she shouted shoving him into the cat carrier. She huffed and looked into it. "I love you,"

"I'm not talking to you right now," G.D. said from the cage.

"What the hell?" Lin asked Rena looked up at us.

Was that cat bipolar or something?

"Oh, hi," she said from the floor.

I walked over to her and grabbed her hand. Blood was coming out from the place he bite, what was that? And he freaking dug his claws in too? That god damned cat!

" I hope he doesn't have anything," I nodded to Lin and he left.

She frowned. Knowing her she probably knew were my train of thought was. She wouldn't really miss him, if he went missing, would she?

"He just doesn't like being put in a cage is all," she told me.

I ignored her, G.D.'s teeth had sunk pretty deep. I wasn't going to forget this too easily.

"Here,"

I took the first aid kit from Lin and I was surprised to not find her resisting. I finished wrapping her hand. She wasn't hurting too bad? Was she? Enough to let herself be healed? I looked at her face. No. It was something else. I followed her eyes. Ah, the violin, no wonder. If she didn't take care of her hands it would be more difficult to play.

"Let's get going,"

She got up and picked up her violin case, I grabbed the cat carrier and Lin picked up her bag. We walked out and down to the car. The drive was quite and pretty short. We arrived at the train station and the others still had to get here.

"Look it's John and Masako," Rena said, so they were first.

"And isn't that Takigawa's car?" Lin pointed out.

"So the priestess is just missing," I noted.

"Not really she'd over there," Rena pointed to where John and Masako were at.

"Alright then let's get going," we got out of the van and walked into the train station. We were taking the Shinkansen train Hikari to Kyoto and from there Suou-san would send someone to pick us up.

"You have the tickets, right Mai?" I asked her she paled, don't tell me she left them at the office.

"You didn't leave them at the office did you?" Bou-san asked her.

"Umm, no?" she mumbled.

"Don't you remember you put the ticket reservations in the folder," Rena said Mai looked at her and she took out the case file. So Rena had put them there.

"Oh, yeah, here they are," she said cheerfully.

"You need to pay more attention," Ayako told her.

"Sorry,"

I held my hand out and she handed me them. First class, this guys wasn't messing around. Rena took them from my hand.

"Me and Mai will go get them, we'll be right back," Rena called already too faraway for me to say anything on the subject. Great.

We heard them call us to boarding just as Rena and Mai showed up so we made our way to the train.

After making sure that no one was going to end up killing each other in the ride I finally sat down next to Rena.

"You work too hard," she told me I leaned on her shoulder.

"You think so?" I asked she nodded and began to run her hands down my back.

"You need to relax," she said firmly.

"Weren't you sleepy?" I asked she giggled.

"Yeah, but you look more tired then I do," she told me.

"Right," I pulled her arms forward and she leaned against my neck.

"You know I'm kind of sacred," she mumbled.

I turned around and looked at her. She was looking away so I couldn't really get a good look at her face. I pulled her face back to face me. Her normally golden eyes were dulled with worry and fear.

"It's not like you to be afraid," I said.

"I don't know, I just got nervous all of a sudden," she admitted.

I looked around but everyone was too distracted to notice us. I pulled her forward and kissed her gently pushing back so that the front seat would hide us. Her hands gripped the collar of my shirt. I felt her slowly lose her fear and I took the opportunity to dip my tongue into her mouth, gently exploring, getting a satisfied sigh from Rena. I pulled back resting my forehead against hers's.

"Better?"

"Much,"

"Good, now go to sleep," I told her holding her against my side.

"Okay,"

Mai's P.O.V

Rena dragged me off.

"Wait Rena, not so fast," I said trying to keep up.

She slowed down as we reached the desk to claim our tickets.

"Excuse me ma'am, we have a reservation under Evan Suou," I told the lady.

She had small dark eyes hidden by pointy glasses. Her hair was pulled into a tight, neat, gray bun. Not to mention that her uniform was completely neat, not a string out of place.

"You don't look like Evan Suou," she said.

I smiled at her, but I already had a sinking feeling about this.

"No, ma'am. I'm not, but he made the reservation for us," I explained.

"I'm afraid that our policy does not allow us to give the tickets out to anyone except to the one who bought it," the lady explained.

"We need to bored that train ma'am, if you'd like you could give Suou-san a call and he can explain the situation, please," I pleaded with her.

I already knew this was a lost cause though.

"I cannot,"

"Please ma'am, it's important to Suou-san that we bored that train, please can you make an exception this once?" Rena asked her voice soft.

The woman's face hardened.

"No. Not go away before I call security on you!" she snapped.

Me and Rena backed away.

"Now what are we going to do?" I asked.

There was no way in hell I would go ask Naru for help. Rena was looking around.

"What is it?"

"Come on, let's go over there, stay quite and let me do that talking," Rena told me taking the slip from me.

"But won't the same thing just happen again?" I demanded handing her the slip anyway.

"Trust me," she said with a wink walking up to a desk with a young man standing behind it.

He was probably in his mid-twenties, he had messy brown hair and dark eyes. Something was different about the way Rena walked up to him. Her steps seemed more elegant, almost as if she was gliding across the floor. Absolutely captivating.

"Hello, Kanou-san," she said softly almost like stroking a feather.

That instantly caught his attention even though he seemed to be distracted. He looked at her and smiled a little.

"What can a do for you, ojou-sama," he replied.

What the hell was she doing?

"I have reservations for the train to Kyoto, can you help me claim my tickets?" she asked in that same voice a smile on her face.

Who was that? What happened to the Rena that hated when guys looked at her? Was this her alter ego? DarkRena?

"No, problem," the man said taking the slip and typing away at his computer. He frowned a little.

"Is there a problem?" she asked. It sounded so concerned that I almost wanted to reassure her.

"Umm, no! It just says here that it's for an Evan Suou, but that's not you is it?" he asked gentle.

"No, Kanou-san. That's my older brother," she told him smiling.

"Where is he? He has to claim the tickets," he told her.

DarkRena's smile fell a little.

"He's waiting for me in Kyoto, he said I could claim the tickets here and that there wouldn't be a problem," she told him.

"I'm sorry but he has to be the one to pick them up,"

"Please," her voice taking on a smoother tone. "Please can't you do anything? My brother will be extremely worried if I don't bored that train with my friends, please, help me,"

She had placed the tips of her hand on the desk, her eyes simmering with fake tears. It looked so sad. Kanou-san looked around and then sighed.

"I'm not really allowed to this, but I don't that a pretty girl like you would lie, just give me a moment and I'll print out your tickets," he told her.

DarkRena's grinned widely.

"Thank you, Kanou-san!" she chirped.

"Here, have a safe trip," he told her, she brushed hands with him smiling.

"You're the best, Kanou-san,"

She grabbed my hand and pulled me away. I was stunned to say the least.

"Mai," I looked at her, she was hiding her face. "Don't ever tell anyone about this, please,"

I nodded my head dumbly.

"O...kay," I stuttered.

DrakRena was a force to be reckoned with.

-After Naru's P.O.V-

The drive to the house wasn't that long, it was only about fifteen minutes. The house was huge Victorian style house. It was grey and a darker grey for the roof. Three floors, and despite its beauty I felt sick to my stomach from just looking at it. Every part of my body was screaming to run back to the train station.

"Mai are you coming?" Rena asked I nodded and felt a hand on my shoulder I looked up at Lin.

"Are you alright?" he asked I forced a smile.

"Of course I am," I said of course I'm not. I followed them to into the house but I still felt extremely uneasy.

So this is what Syaoran meant by calm before the storm. What had we gotten ourselves into?

Author's Note: (insert squeals here) I just love writing DarkRena! It's hilarious!

Rena: (hiding in corner) Why? Why do you have to torture me like this?

Oh get over it. Okay, just to clarify, DarkRena isn't necessarily an alter ego, but you can see it like that. Rena has the ability to captivate people unintentionally, but, when she really wants to she can do what she did to poor Kanou-san, (grin) he had no idea what was coming for him.

Rena: It's not cool!

It so is, now get over it.

Rena: I'm so embarrassed after I do that!

Sure, sure, anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter!

Rena: take care

(eye roll) she'll be upset for a while, so why not sent a review to cheer her up? And me too since my teachers suck! But seriously I'd love to see what you think so far, my lovely readers you all have a place in our hearts! Until next time!

Love
