Dont own ghost hunt... damn...
'Naru' voice that surrounded the narcissist as he woke up the voice became less distant
'Where am I?' he asked
'In hospital, it seems that Olivia kid is quite strong but thankfully she just missed your temple, just kidding Naru. It's just mild anaemia again, for the love of god eat something' the monk grinned and got up 'and you gave Mai the scare of her life when she found you on the stretcher, she's been crying her eyes out, so been nice if you see her'. The monk left Naru to his thoughts about the young brunette.
'Im going to have a look round near where we found the body' Masako said
'I'll go with you, I don't think we should go out alone anymore' Takigawa said
'I agree' Lin called from the computer 'Ayako will go with you'
'Mai do me a favour and get some sleep' Takigawa smiled warmly at the girl with sore red eyes
'But Im not tired' she yawned
'Don't worry Mai we'll wake you up if there's any news' John said so she shut her eyes and got some well deserved sleep.
**Dreamland**
'Naru' Mai sighed 'well Im back, this case is getting dangerous and we need to solve it before anyone else gets hurt or worse' Naru's lips moved but no sound came out 'Naru' suddenly she saw nothingness 'HELP' she shouted
'Mai wake up' Lin called, she opened her eyes 'what did you see'
'Nothing, what's happening to me Lin' a single tear dripped down her check. She looked up at Lin who couldn't think of anything to help her
'Mai maybe you should you rest properly, your body might not be under so much stress' Lin replied helping Mai up
'Okay I'll go rest' Mai smiled meekly and thought 'Thanks Lin'.
'We've been here a week and nothing else has happened none of the students are talking to us, Mai can't see anything in her dreams. A girl is dead, another has disappeared. I mean how the hell are we meant to solve this' Takigawa cried 'it's being to really annoy me'
'Let's go over the facts, maybe it can give us a clue' Ayako suggested
'Mai said that the building had been an orphanage during World War 2 right, maybe the building itself' Takigawa pondered with his curled up finger to his lips
'The building I believe has nothing to do with it' Lin said 'Helena and Lindsay both heard a child crying and saw a black forest before they went missing'
'I'll be back' Mai ran out leaving Takigawa shouting behind her.
At the base,
'MAI' the monk yelled
'Where has she gone' Naru asked unsurprised as he came round the corner
'Gone running off by herself again' John said looking concerned 'do you want me to go after her'
'Masako stay here, John and Ayako check the lower levels, Takigawa and Lin check to higher level's, I'll check this level and the one above'
'Naru' Lin looked like he was going to argue but when he saw the pain in his eyes he stopped.
With Mai,
'Where is Olivia,' Mai muttered to herself, she ran along the same corridor where Helena died 'there she is, HEY OLIVIA'
'Leave me alone' she turned and started to walk away from her
'No, this could help me solve this case' Mai grabbed her arm pleadingly 'what room was Lindsay in'
'That one' Olivia pointed to the end one
'Who else from your school is on this level?' Mai looked at Olivia sternly
'All of our school' Olivia thought for a moment
'All of them?'
'Some are on the upper level' Olivia shrugged 'I was just about to go get dinner with them, but Miss Jones wanted a word first'
'She wouldn't' Mai shook her head 'she seemed so nice'
'Aren't you the smart one' Olivia's mouth dropped and Mai span round to find Miss Jones smirking
'How long as Jordan been dead' Mai asked
'A few days' now' she shrugged
'And what about the other students how many of them are left'
'Under 10' she smiled 'how long have you known?'
'It's just clicked now' Mai smiled back but she pushed Olivia back as she retreated
'There's no point doing that you know' Miss Jones laughed
'When I tell you to run' Mai felt Olivia tremble 'RUN' they turned and ran but Miss Jones' reactions where better, the doors all snapped shut and the rooms all locked.
At base again,
'Has anyone found her?' Naru demanded
'No' Takigawa punched the wall 'where the hell can she be'
'Hang on' Lin said 'Masako come with me, I think Mai solved the case'
Lin took them to the door leading to the 4th floor where Masako started to shake.
'It's like it's there but it isn't' Masako said
'There's nothing there' Ayako said
'There is and Im betting Mai's in there' Lin said
'But it's a blank wall Lin' Takigawa said 'its solid concrete'
'Is it really' Lin smirked 'John perform a quick exorcism'
'Lin, are you sure'
'Very' Lin said in a matter of fact tone. They all watched John perform his exorcism and they still didn't see a door. Lin smirked and opened it. 'See'
'Well I be damned' Takigawa laughed when he saw the door swing on the other side
'Mai' Naru yelled and ran for her body that lay limp on the floor.
**Mai's dreamland**
'Mai are you okay' Naru asked his usual smiled wasn't there but another emotion that the real Naru never shows was present and that emotion was a mix between concern
'Im fine Naru' Mai sighed 'I've kinda missed you being in my dreams'
'Same here and I think we're at the point where I should tell you that Im a ghost called Gene'
'WHAT!' Mai yelled 'b-b-but you look exactly like Naru'
'That's because Im his twin brother' Gene smirked
'Wow really' Mai smiled 'I can see it now you're smirking at me' she pouted
'Yeah, Im your spirit guide to be honest' Gene scratched his head
'Is there a way to beat Miss Jones Gene?' Mai asked
'Not sure even now she's trying to block me from talking to you, she's quite powerful' Gene sighed 'and Im trying to push her back, your best bet is to take out her accomplice first, the hotel owner'
'Seriously' she said in surprise
'Yes the real owner was killed for her arrival' he sighed again and closed his eyes 'we don't have much time left, Mai the children she took,' he stopped again and placed his thin fingers to his temple 'check her family history, also Mai do me a favour and call my brother a idiot scientist for me' Mai stared at Gene as the faded away.
**Reality**
'Mai are you okay' Naru breathed right on her face
'I will be when you stop leaning on my chest' she coughed out, Naru gingerly moved away 'you really are a idiot scientist'
'What did you just say' Naru stared at her in disbelief while Lin chuckled quietly
'Never mind that, is Olivia okay?' Mai looked around
'She's fine, when she explained what happened we got her and the rest out of the hotel' Takigawa explained
'What about the manager' Mai asked
'He went with them' John said
'WHAT' Mai jumped up
'What's wrong Mai' Ayako asked
'THE REAL HOTEL OWNER IS DEAD AND HE IS HELPING HER' Mai yelled her voice echoed down the empty hallway
'How do you know that' Masako said dryly
'Your dreams have returned' Lin smirked at Naru who looked away guiltily
'Yes, I got told that Miss Jones and the fake hotel owner are working together' Mai pulled Naru towards the exit 'are you lot coming or what'
'You got told by who' Takigawa asked
'Err... someone who died' Mai bit her lip and avoided eye contact with the others
'I think we should go with her' John said 'has she ever let us down before' Mai smiled at him
'Sounds like a plan' they all ran to the car, unknown to them Miss Jones heard all of their conversation
'Hmm so her little spirit friend managed to get through to her like that will ever happen again' a small smirk tugged at the edge of her mouth. She closed her eyes and went into her own dreamland and there was Gene chained to a white tree surrounded by other spirits in the black forest.
'Here's where we left them' Takigawa pulled into small inn on the edge of a forest
'Is it just me or does this place creep you out' Ayako asked
'It's not just me then' John smiled
'Lin stop' Naru said when Lin stopped, he jumped out and ran towards the edge of the road
'What is it Naru' Lin called
'I think we're at the right place' Naru called back
They all got out the van and gasped at what Naru was staring at.
'Oh god, it's that girl who interrupted us when they were getting attacked by those chairs' Lin said 'I never saw her much after'
'Is she alive' John asked
'Yes but call an ambulance her pulse is very faint' Naru looked down 'Mai is there anything else'
'Yes I was told to look at her family' Mai nodded 'that was it, I did call you an idiot scientist right?'
'Yeah' Naru rolled his eyes
'Good, that has a ring to it Im going to use it' Mai stuck her tongue out at him
'Not you too' Lin smirked
'Let's get moving, Masako and Ayako wait here for the ambulance' Naru ordered, they nodded and the rest of them headed towards the inn 'Lin look up their family while we're driving'
'Mai' a voice rang out through her head
'What?' she looked round
'No one said anything Mai' Naru looked into her eyes for the first time since their argument
'Oh' she looked away and sighed
'Her real name is Momoko and her first name is Leiko tell them quickly...' Gene's pleading voice trailed off again like he was being dragged away by someone
'Her real name is Leiko Momoko' Mai said quickly
'Mai breathe you look a bit green' John said putting a comforting hand on her shoulder
'I just hope we get there in time' Mai put a hand over her heart which was beating franticly
'We will Mai' Naru smiled slightly at her
'The Momoko family have always had great but dark physic skills' Lin said 'dating back till around World War 2 when an entire orphanage burned to the ground when a report came in of child cruelty'
'That's why they had cuts and bruises up and down their legs' Naru said partially to himself
'And why it burned down' Mai added 'what else'
'Ever since they disappeared after the police declared them wanted, nothing much else' Lin sighed
'She must have a lot of physic energy to pull this off' Naru thought
'DON'T BOTHER COMING FOR THE CHILDREN THEY ARE ALL DEAD NOW' a voice screamed in Mai's head, she placed a hand to her head 'well at least you saved one child but that child won't be you if you stand in my way' Leiko's voice blocked out all the one's of her friends 'do you want to join poor Gene, after all I can make you die the same way'
'What does that mean' Mai asked aloud
'Has your boss not told you' Leiko's voice cackled loudly 'I don't want to spoil the surprise' her voice got quieter to the end
'Mai what is it, what does what mean' Takigawa asked concern laced in his worried voice
'Oh nothing just talking to my spirit guide' Mai lied quickly as they got closer to the inn.
'The master did warn you' the fake hotel owner smiled evilly with all his teeth on show, a gust of air hit Mai and she fell backwards her head cracking against the floor as she bounce several times against the cold floor.
