I'm Back after TWO MONTHS.

I am forever sorry. Haha.

Exams went great, got to B's and a C. So happy.

So now its half term, I can update, and I have so much to update. While revising I wrote down small notes for the stories and then after wrote a few paragraphs gradually building up chapters.

Sadly to say, there is only going to be a few more chapters left of this story.

I would like to thank everyone now for their support.

Maybe, I will do a sequel, any ideas? What do you think?

Anyway, thanks to everyone, and here is your next chapter, you have all been waiting to long for.

OWTS.

Chapter 21: Love, Makes The World Go Round.

Again, I was floating, the same feeling of the wisp caressing my skin, softly touching, soothing me, helping me. They wrapped them selves around me, cocooning me, protecting me. I watched in shock, these souls, protecting me, helping me. I sighed at the warmth, and closed my eyes, the care, the emotions filtering into my body at every touch.

I was shocked to see that they were doing such, it helped me see that these were amazing spirits. I finally reopened my eyes to see violet blue staring back. "Gene?" I asked and the man scoffed. "Of course you'd think I was him." he muttered and I sat up the see Naru sit back. 'Oh shit, Naru'. "Naru, no, I mean. You are never here with me, Gene is, I thought it was him," Naru was silent, "Which evidently brings me to my next question, why are you here?" I asked him.

Naru looked up at me, his violet eyes staring back. "The spirit, possessed me, but, he knew that I could fight him from the inside so, he had to transfer me to here, the astral plane, where evidently you are which seems quite coincidental actually." then he took his thinking position and blocked me out.

I sighed and the wisp then snuggled back up to me and I giggled, smiling at them as they whizzed around me, not floating up like they usually do. I looked back over at Naru, "So, Naru, what happened, I mean, when I came back on stage after Kayleigh's song you had disappeared,?" Naru stopped thinking and looked up at me. "I sensed something wrong back at the back so I left quickly, once I got back to base, the ghost was there, sitting in my chair, he said..."

Flashback,

Naru POV,

I saw the ghost sat there, comfortable, watching me, "Well Well Well, the prince charming came after all, you know, I never thought you would be such a loving person," I glared at the spirit. "I have no idea what you mean," I growled. The spirit laughed and sighed. "No matter, anyway, i'm only here for one thing, and one thing only and you know it," I glared, "Mai," I hissed in a whisper. "Yes, isn't it obvious, she my Elisha, she is mine now, and not you or your crew can stop me."

"Your wrong though," I demanded, "You spirits always have one weakness, one weakness," I repeated harshly so he got the point. The spirit suddenly glared. "No, it does not matter, you won't know, neither with Mai for that matter, she won't ever tell you, you know, she knows deep down what the answer is, and on some degree so do you, but you see you'll cover it up." I growled softly and the spirit laughed.

"Well, your missing quite the show, did you know those songs, those songs hold such powerful feelings, love, hate, sorrow, sadness, all relating to one thing, but, I won't tell you that know, I mean, I would be spoiling such a lovely show."I glared at him, confused for the very first time, the spirit spoke in riddles. "Now now, prince charming, you cant kill me, well, I am already dead, but no matter, I need you, and I need to get inside that pretty little head of yours, but I can't do that with you hear so, say hi to Elisha to me when you see her," he waved and then suddenly I was impacted with such force I felt my soul leave my body. I knew I was in the astral plane and that I had just left my body with the devil.

Flashback end,.

I watched Naru with a confused face as he finished.

I should know the answer. Deep inside.

I looked up at Naru as he stared at me. "Well, do you know the answer?" he asked. I glared, "Do you," I shouted but then was immediately guilty. "Sorry," I whispered. "I mean, Naru he said its deep inside us two, but what do we have in common that's big enough and the weakness to this ghost?" I asked. Naru stared but then I shifted. "Oh no, Naru, no Naru, he calling me, he's trying wake me,"

Naru reached towards me and pull me to him. "Naru, please don't let him get me, please." I half whispered and half sobbed. Naru held me as I cried but I knew he couldn't do nothing as soon, I was pulled away from him and chucked back into my body.

When I wake this time, I constricted, I can't move, I was stuck and I was hanging from the wall but chains on my hands and a chain around my waist keeping my arms from snapping off. I struggled against them when I heard a deep laugh. I froze and looked up from the floor and came to look at lifeless violet eyes, the colour I had come to love just not the lifeless part.

He smiled, "My Elisha, how nice of you to join me." I looked at the man or should I saw spirit infront of me, I smiled but not sweetly, "For one ugly, my name is Mai, get it, got it, good, now, and for one I didn't want to join you I was happy discussing your demise thanks, Jackson." I added and with that I spat at the ghost, i had to suppress a giggle when it landed on Naru's face, maybe I have been waiting to do that for a while.

Jackson only glared and grabbed me by the throat. "Now, Now, Elisha, I have tried being nice, tried playing fair, all I want it you, you by my side to help me rule, but, you may need breaking first, by the time I have finished with you, well, lets say..." he lent forward, "You'll be begging for it, I know how long its been, I can smell it."

I couldn't help it, I blushed, but then I covered it with anger and struggled on the chains again and he back off. "Well, well, now where shall I start, well, lets see, I don't want to mark that pretty face of yours so lets start with the belly, where no one apart from me can see anymore."

My face paled as he brought out a knife, slender but sharp I began to struggle when my head smacked to the side. "Now now, I just marked your face, don't make me do it again Elisha," he whispered and pain spread through my body as he began slowly cutting, I don't remembered blacking out, but I knew it did because once again I could feel the wisp caressing my skin. Helping me once again.

With Everyone.

Normal POV.

It had been a day since Naru had taken Mai, no not Naru the spirit. The business people got back to work, Kayleigh was in hysterics, crying all night. Ayako and Masako there helping her but also crying too. John, Bou-san and Lin, working hard trying to solve the case. Luella and Martin just watching not saying much until Lin called a meeting.

That was where they were all now, surrounding the table they all surrounded the day before when Mai told tell about the sixth room. Everyone was quiet when Lin spoke. "So, what I concluded was this, a spirit, no matter what, always has a weakness, Naru, has, was looking for this weakness, looking through the research and reading the notes from Mai's dreams and everything. He found something, but he didn't tell me, he was getting something, he was nearly there. He wanted to speak with Mai to see what she thought."

Everyone nodded and he continued, "Well, from his notes it has something to with Elisha, and which leads to her death. He killed her, we all know that, however, we didn't know the real reason, I found it. She had another lover." Everyone stared it shock, "But I thought Mai told us he was the cheat." Lin nodded at Monk. "She did, but she never knew Elisha was a cheat her self." Everyone pondered on this, "But," Lin continued, "She wasn't a cheat per say, she was married to this other man, long before Jackson got his hands on her, so it wasn't her fault, that's why I finally found out the mans weakness,"

Everyone lent forward, "Well?"cried Ayako. Lin opened his mouth...

Back with Naru and Mai.

Mai POV.

As I lay there, I felt warm, safe, happy. I felt the soft touches of the wisps again. I felt them rub over my belly as if they knew the cuts were there, like they were healing them, reliving me of the pain. It felt so nice.

I also felt someone or some wisps flowing through my hair, caressing my hair. I felt nice. I slowly began to open my eyes and the caress in my hair stopped but the wisps didn't I watched them with a smile and then I looked behind me to see a black shirt. Then I realised my head was in Naru's lap.

I felt all the blood rush to my face as I looked up at him. He watched me with an amused smile as I punched him the gut which only granted me pain not him. I looked down at my body to see blood stains. "Oh really, he can still hurt me here?"

"Yes, i'm not that surprised, either way, he seemed to have stopped so far you only have two cut marks on your belly along with a bruise forming on your cheek with a small cut above it." I watched at he helped me lie down onto the floor, or wisps or whatever. "They aren't infected but if we can't get you to hospital in the real life then they might," I grimaced at the thought and Naru looked back at me, "What did he say?"

"Nothing, just that, he was playing nice and that this was the start of trying to break me," Naru only stared. "Well that sure helps," he brought his hand up to his chin and thought, "I was so close to the answer I just can't remembered what I had," he whispered, almost upset. I was shocked to see him like this, he hasn't been this unsure since the Urado case and...that was it.

"Naru, I know what to do," I exclaimed, he started, "What?" he asked. I smiled, "I need to Astral Project to the guys," Naru looked shocked but in his eyes, I could see the relief and happiness we needed. That what fueled me to get started right away.

With the Gang.

John and the others were not shocked, Bou-san and Ayako happy because after this, the outcome was going to be good. Masako, a little jealous but all she wanted was Mai back and John just smiled. It was such as silly weakness, but so big in its own way,

They had learned Jackson was a sex freak, literally lived for sex, he just wanted intimacy. He used Elisha for her body, nothing more, forced her, so, Jackson lived of rape. Ayako ran to the bathroom after to bring up her breakfast and John passed out, but in the end they understood why he had such a weakness.

Now they knew the question was how to tell Naru and Mai? Lin was on the laptop again, Bou-san was pacing, Ayako and Masako asleep and John sat writing notes and idea's. Suddenly Masako sat up surprising John and Bou-san. "Masako are you okay?" they asked and she got up and ran into the hall. The boys followed her as she run into the girls room, the boys following, when they got to the door, Masako was on the floor. "Masako," the shouted and ran to her, as they picked her up she woke and John noticed her eyes. "Her eyes,"

Bou-san then looked and they dropped Masako. The heard a small mutter, "Guys, seriously,give the girl a break, ive been cut and slapped, I don't need to be dropped now." The guys stared in shock when Monk stepped forward. "Mai?" he asked. Mai stood in Masako body. "The one and only, but now's not the time for discussion, Lin, Naru said you would have carried on looking for the weakness, shoot me with the answer so I can tell Naru."

Lin sighed, which was shocking for him, "Well, Mai, I don't know how to say this but, its love." I raised and eyebrow, "Love?" I asked, "Yes, love, your love for Naru and his love for you with help you, this is his weakness, and by telling each other, you safe each other and Jackson is no more."

I stared at Lin. "Oh boy," and with that, I was pulled back out of Masako body and back to the astral plane to face Naru. "Well?" he asked.

All I could do was blush.

What do you think?

Was that chapter worth all the wait.
