Case 1: A hidden creature: part 5

Day 4

3:00am

"Mai, I have something to show you." Gene said.

'Hehehe I will use this girl as my vessel and there is nothing you can do to stop me I am stronger than you.'

'I will stop you, you can't keep doing this.'

'Maybe you should've thought of that when you chose him over me; it's too late now this is all happening because of your decision.'

'I was only your friend; I never liked you like that. Sure we dated but I didn't feel the same in the end.'

"So is that them?" Mai asked wide-eyed as she watched the two fight.

"Yes the woman asked me to show it to you. Their names are Kyo and Karin." He said. "You need to wake up and tell Naru now before Kyo finds out. She's currently stalling him." Mai nodded as Gene faded away.

Mai jumped out of bed looking around the room, neither Naru nor Lin could be found in their beds and she assumed they were at base. As she ran out the door she found both silent men talking outside the room.

"Naru! Lin! I found out more stuff during my dream!" Mai yelled.

"Okay we can talk in base." Naru replied fading out as Mai ran to base in the middle of his response. He rolled his eyes.

"We have to hurry!" She said frantically opening the door. They all sat on the couch and Mai began. "So there are two of them, a woman and a man named Kyo and Karin, Gene told me. They were fighting and from what I've heard so far was that he liked her but she ended up marrying someone else."

"So it's a normal jealousy thing then."

"Yeah and he got revenge on her by….." Mai stopped after hearing a voice.

"Mai?" Naru asked. She looked at him confused.

"Who are you?" Naru's eyes widened slightly.

Bou-san looked at the cowering Mai in the corner sighing faintly.

"How are we supposed to get her memory back?" He asked.

"If we knew how to I'm sure she'd have her memory back and we wouldn't all be sitting her like this right now you stupid monk." Ayako said in irritation.

"Well sorry for asking such a stupid question." He said sarcastically then looked around the room. Naru sat at his computer most likely trying to find out the answer as well. He looked up as the door opened to see both Yasu and Masako.

"I found out about the people in Mai's dream Naru-bou!" He called out making a big entrance.

"Well don't just stand there." Masako said walking around him to go sit down. "Why don't you tell them?"

"You could be nicer ya know." Yasu stuck his tongue out at her and she looked at him in disgust making him laugh. "Well anyway, Karin and Kyo went to school together. Their teachers, who have so kindly replied to my phone calls, said they were great friends and even dated at one point until she broke up with him. Karin then got together with another man in college, marrying him 2 years later. She was found dead a week after Kyo, he had committed suicide. His depression was believed to have been brought on by her leaving him. While searching they found out that Karin was murdered but could never find the culprit…." Yasu continued to talk on as Naru thought.

'Who could have murdered Karin, Mai said Kyo got revenge on her but never got to say how. Are all these events being caused by him? Did he murder Karin and cause the death of her husband and the suicide of Daichi? It's possible.' Naru looked at Mai curiously to see her scooting closer to the wall as Masako walked over to her.

"What do you want?" Mai asked.

"Do you remember me Mai?" All Masako got was a blank stare in response.

"…..Your name is Mai?"

"No my name is Masako, your name is Mai." She sighed.

"Oh…I'm sorry, I don't remember you," She replied apologetically and Masako frowned. "But I feel like you're a friend." She said earning her a small smile.

"Mai, what do you think of Naru?" Bou-san asked.

"Who?" Naru didn't know why but hearing her ask that made him hurt a little inside.

"He's the man in black sitting in the corner." Naru looked up feeling Mai's stare, they made eye contact and she blushed looking away.

"Oh Naru it looks like you have nothing to worry about." Said Bou-san

"She still loves you." Yasu whispered in Naru's ear earning him a death glare, he ran and hid behind Bou-san. Mai watched them curiously then stared at the Ayako entranced by her red hair, then immediately looked away when said miko looked at Mai and smiled. She felt bad for not remembering them all and continued to try with all her might to hopefully regain her memories.

"Mai." She looked up at Naru automatically thinking about how handsome he was.

"Yes?" Mai responded blushing and looking away.

"I want you to look through these." He walked over to her crouching down by her and spreading out a stack of several papers, all with various people on them. She scanned over them confused stopping when she came across one of a tall man. He had brown hair and yellow eyes, she felt like she had seen him before. The longer she stared at the picture the more uneasy she felt, Naru noticed this change in her and looked at it as well. "What do you feel when you look at this picture?"

"I feel scared, he's a bad man." She looked at Naru not wanting to see the picture anymore.

"That's Kyo, now I'm sure that he's the one you've seen in your dreams." Mai just looked at him confused not understanding. She began to feel tired all of a sudden and soon found herself in a dark void.

Naru looked at Mai, something in her had changed just now.

"Mai?" he asked. Masako then got up and sat in front of Mai.

"Get out of her." Masako said. "I know you're there."

"I don't know what you're talking about," she said innocently but her voice sounded different, like that of a young boy's.

"You're possessing her."

"I just want to know where my mommy is." Her shoulders sagged. "She can hear her so I wanted to see if I could hear her too if I went in her body." Mai started to cry.

"Daichi." Naru said knowing his guess was right when Mai looked at him in response. "We can help you find your mom but you need to get out of her first. Your mom is in trouble and you will be too if we don't figure everything out, it'll be faster if we have Mai help us."

"Do you promise?" he asked.

"Yes." Naru nodded. "Do you know what happened to your mom?"

"I don't know, I saw a tall guy walking through the house and I went to go get Daddy then we heard Mommy's scream. I couldn't find the tall guy after that though and mommy was hurt." he sniffled. "Daddy thought I hurt her…"

"Okay, that's all thank you." Naru said standing up and watching as Masako talked to him. Eventually she coaxed him out of Mai and they lay her on the bed.

"Monk, Lin come with me." Naru stood walking out of base and the other two followed. They walked around the mansion until they came across a certain room.

"This was where Karin was murdered right?" Bou-san asked.

"Yes," Naru opened the door looking around, they walked in and began searching when Lin's shiki sensed a presence.

"Naru," he said quietly looking over at the figure that had appeared in the corner.

"Karin…" Naru said looking at her.

"You don't have much time, Kyo's power is building up and the longer you wait the harder it'll be to exorcize him. Once you've found out everything, you'll know how to defeat him but until then you have to keep searching. I've tried to protect that girl from him as well but you're going to have to watch over her for now. I have to go before Kyo finds out I've told you anything," and with that she left as quickly as she appeared.

"Well then Naru, what do you suggest we do?" Bou-san asked.

"We keep searching, I'm sure Mai will still be of help. She hasn't lost her powers just her memory." Naru said as he left the room with Lin. Bou-san rolled his eyes and followed him out. 'He really is a workaholic.'
