So I noticed a lot of typos in the other chapters. Sorry about that. I don't own Ghost Hunt. I actually have this very planned out, but I could still make a few mistakes by accident. So far I think it's going to be around 18 chapters…. I hope you like it besides the chapter I didn't like writing, but it was important. Please review.
Chapter 6
Naru was in his room he could hear the music playing. Mai and the others where having fun listen to the songs. Naru couldn't figure out what had happened. He had imagined raping Mai. It had made him feel so sick to think about it. He had raped her in the most malicious way, or at least he had imagined it. He had never thought about that before, ever! It had to have something to do with this place. He must have picked up on it. Someone had been victimized and he was picking up on it.
That didn't explain why he had kissed Mai. She had been blushing as his appearance and then he looked at her. Her bra was showing through her shirt and next thing he knew he was kissing her. He could understand why she ran off. After he processed what had happened. He remembered that he had been unbuttoning her shirt. He groaned. He wanted to pretend it never happened. It made things complicated. The stupid music was taunting him. (I was listening to the Glee version)
Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper, "I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams, whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams, whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Naru stared at the ceiling. He had never thought about Mai like that. He had never felt anything besides the employer employee relationship. Why had he kissed her? Why can't he shake this feeling? It was almost was like he was worried about her.
He did not trust that guardian for a minute. He did not want anyone near Mai, but he couldn't do that. He would have to settle for pushing Naru away. Naru was his threat no one else was aware of it. Naru felt like he was finally going to get some answers. He had been searching for so long and had come up at dead ends every time. He must have kissed Mai because of the left over from his vision before.
Naru felt restless. He got up and went into the bathroom. To his surprise it was already occupied by someone. Snook was drinking out of the toilet. The big black cat looked up Naru with his bright green eyes before going back to drinking.
Naru was stunned. He had never seen a cat do that before. He didn't have much experience with pets, but he had always heard of dogs doing it. He couldn't deal with this today he was too tired. He turned and walked back to his room. Snook decided to follow him. Naru had noticed the cat walking behind him, but when he looked back again the cat was no where in sight.
Naru entered his room to find Snook perched on his bed, staring intently at him. Naru glared at the cat and tried to shoo it away, but the cat did not budge. Snook sprawled out on top like a big slug. Naru plopped down on the bed next to the cat. He would just have to ignore it. He fell asleep and had a horrible dream.
Gene was standing in front of him and was pointing to Mai in the distance. She was covered in blood and whimpering. Naru ran to her.
"Mai! What happened?" he yelled at her.
She kept walking slowly forwards like she was dragging her own dead weight. She had a dead look in her eyes. "He failed me. He said he would protect me." She whimpered still showing no emotion.
Naru followed behind her. He tried to talk to her, but she didn't acknowledge his presence. She continued forward.
They were outside the house. She was walking down a path. There was so much mist. Naru didn't know where his feet were. They made their way to the lake. They walked along the edge past the dead trees that stuck out of the water.
He looked up and saw the bridge that they had driven over. They went towards it. Mai went up the path to the road. Naru stumbled after her. She was now walking over to the railing. The water looked black and cold. Mai hoisted herself up. She held onto the metal support and turned to look at Naru now.
"I'm sorry…" her mouth continued to move but Naru could not hear her words. She turned back to face the water and jumped.
"Mai!"
Naru sat right up in bed and looked around. Snook had not budged. Naru looked to see if the cat was still alive. He was. He was snoring as his stomach rose and fell. Naru laughed to himself. He got up and went to the bathroom. He splashed some cold water on his face. He was drying his hands when he heard the faint sound of a piano.
He walked downstairs and followed the sound. He made his way to the music room. Its large windows let in the moonlight. It lit up the piano and its player. Mai looked graceful as she was perched at the piano playing a sweet melody that held a bit of sadness to it.
Naru stood there and watch her till she was finished. "You play very well. I'm surprised." He told her.
Mai was startled she thought she was alone. She had been so engrossed that she didn't hear him come in. She gave a small yelp as she fell of the bench. "Oh its just you." She sighed. "You scared me."
"Do you come down here often?" he asked her as he took a seat on the couch. She had prepared a tea tray and had it sitting on the coffee table.
"Oh sometimes, when I'm really think about something important." She said and went over and poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him. Naru sipped his tea with her. "So I take it you couldn't sleep? Had a bad dream?" Naru looked a little off Mai thought. Maybe it was just the moonlight that made him look that way.
"In a way yes." Naru said. This confused Mai and she decided not ask. That would only make Naru say something about her being stupid and she would lose her temper and yell and wake up the whole house.
"I see." She figured that sounded much cooler. "I'm actually glad you're here. I need to talk to you." Naru looked up at her now with his full attention. "About what happened in the stable, I was hoping we could forget that happened. I just want to keep things the way they are." She said. Naru nodded. She did not ask him why or say anything else on the matter.
"So your cat is sleeping in my room. He just decided to make himself comfortable on my bed." Naru informed her. Mai laughed.
"Really? He doesn't usually do that. Snook likes to sleep in his own bed. He's not big on sharing." She laughed "He either must really like you or just wanted to see how far he could push you." Naru actually smiled at her.
"I was wondering if I could ask you some questions about this place." Naru asked
"Sure go right ahead." She replied.
"Well how long has this place been in your family?"
"Not very long, I think my grandfather bought the place when my mom was a little girl. They built the house." She answered.
"What was here before this house, do you know?"
"Hmmm I'm not very sure. I know the area was farm land and such. The old cottage that we went past, is older than the town."
"So have you ever gone in there?"
"Yeah I think I did once. It was a long time ago. My mom showed me it, but it's so old now that I wouldn't deem it safe to go in it. The place is over grown and falling apart." She explained
"Is there anyone else nearby?"
"Not really. I mean we do own some cabins by the lake and in the woods closer to the town that are rented out, but as for this area no. It's all private property. No one comes near this place if they can help it."
"Why is that?"
"I would think it's because the town doesn't like outsiders. They put up with us because we have been here for some decades, but they still don't like us. Tadashi is not a very friendly person. He likes privacy and makes sure the cabins are empty when we come here. It's kind of lonely. No one talks to you unless it's for business."
"Your guardian, what kind of stuff is he capable of?"
Mai looked at him funny when he asked that. It was sort of like he was over stepping his boundaries. "I don't really know. I'm sure he could buy someone off or pressure them to do what he wants except me."
"I see. When was the last time you were here?"
"A couple years ago. I know I haven't been here since I started working for you. What's with all the questions?"
"I was just curious that's all. Are there any other old buildings around?"
"Well besides the cottage there's the old barn. It's in the woods too, but I think it's safe to go there if you want, but you have to stay with the group." She warned him.
Naru agreed. He finished his tea and went back to his room as Mai took the tray to the kitchen.
Snook was still asleep on when he got back into bed. He crawled undercover and was out as soon as he laid his head down.
I have a cat that's how I got my username. Nefret, she's going to be 11 years old August 4th. She is a fat blob and yes she does drink out of the toilet. As for white cats with blue eyes it is a fact that they are deaf. It's a defect that the breed has.
