Recap

"Well," I started everyone turned their gazes on me. I gulp and started to feel a little uncomfortable. "I haven't been honest to you about who I really am."

I watched as the team all got an expression on their face that I couldn't describe, even Naru let his expression show from his hard mask. I took another deep breath and continued.

"Well I'm…"


Who Knew

Chapter 3

The Wonderful World of Andrea

Naru's POV

I was scared. I was actually scared of Mai. Mai of all people. I can believe I was afraid of my little cute, sweet, loving, caring, warm-hearted, ghost-magnet of an assistant. How could she be capable of this. Who is she really? What is she hiding? Is she actually Mai Taniyama? Or am I in love with just her cover-up?


Normal POV

"We'll I.." Mai started. She was getting really uncomfortable under the stares of the team. She gulped for what was like the thousandth time. Then she remembered something. "Before I tell you, you all have to promise to not tell another living soul, or I will be forced to.. forced to.." Mai gulped again.

"Forced to what?" Naru said. Mai took a deep breath. She then looked Naru straight in the eyes. Her expression was dead serious. Everyone knew what she was about to say was super important.

"I'll be forced to destroy you." her voice dropped to a dangerously low and serious tone. Everyone just stared at her wide-eyed for a minute trying to decided it they wanted to know such information that it will cost them their lives.

"I promise" Naru said after he mentally decided. Everyone turned their attention to him.

"I do as well." Lin said.

"Me too, Mate." John said as he nervously rubbed the back of his head.

"I promise too, Mai." Masako said with her kimono covering her mouth.

"Me, too." Ayako said.

"Come on guys, Mai really wouldn't kill us, would she." Bou-san said standing up. Everyone just glare at him. Brandon spoke before Mai had a change to.

"It wouldn't be her decision." he said.

"Bou-san please just promise me." Mai said. Bou-san looked at her for minute before he sighed and sat back down.

"Ok I promise."

"Thank you." Mai smiled "Ok like I was saying. Well how do I explain it? Ok. You all know about magical creature, like fairies, mermaids, vampires, elves, and stuff like that." everyone nodded for her to continue. "Well everything magical you have heard of is real. There is the other realm called Andrea. It is the kingdom of magical creature and things."

Everyone looked at Mai like she was crazy. The silence was starting to get uncomfortable until John spoke up.

"How do you know this Mai." John asked. He knew Mai had no reason to lie.

"Well I'm sort of the princess of Andrea." she said as she rubbed the back of her head much like John did earlier.

"You're a what." Ayako exclaimed. "is this some kind of joke"

"No joke. What Melody is telling you is the truth." Brandon answered her.

"Who is Melody, her name is Mai." Bou-san said pointing towards said girl.

"Actually Mai is the name I go by in this realm. My giving name is Melody Nicole." Mai answered him. He looked at her with disbelief.

"I don't know about anyone one else but I would like to see this 'other realm'" Naru said as he folded his arms over his chest and sitting back in his chair.

"Me, too." Masako said. John and Lin nodded in agreement. Mai sighed.

"Ok you would've had to go there anyway." she said. Everyone looked at her with the same question written on their faces. "I'll explain later."

Mai went over to a bare wall and put her hands together. She then closed her eyes and said something in English.

Andrea

Then there was a bright golden light. Everyone shielded their eyes. When the light finally dimmed the was a portal on the wall. They looked at the wall in awe then at Mai. Everyone was shocked at what they saw in front of them. Naru's eye widen. 'What happen to Mai.' he thought.


Naru's POV

My eyes widen and my heart started beating faster by the minute. There before me no longer stood a girl but a woman. A young beautiful woman. I always thought Mai was beautiful no doubt but now she was just wow. Her short brown hair was not darker and stopped a little passed her hips. Her brown eyes got a little darker. It looked like she grew taller a few inches shorter than me. Her cleavage grew and her hips got wider. She was ever man's fantasy girl. She was enchanting. I could feel heat in my body. Some rised to my face and some… umm went lower. 'Damn hormones'


Normal POV

Everyone was staring at Mai. It was dead silent when Brandon decided to speak.

"Great to have you back princess. I mean it was weird talking to you when you looked like that. Seemed like you wasn't my sister." Brandon said ruffling her hair.

"Well that's how I looked when we were kids." Mai said slapping her hands. Brandon laughed just then his phone rung.

"Hold on I got to take this." he said as he walked to another room.

"Mai." Bou-san said. Mai turned to look at the others. They all were standing and looking at her with wide eyes. She could see a small blushed on Lin, John and very surprisingly Naru's faces.

"What?" Mai asked very confused.

"What?! You. That's what." Ayako said.

"What about me?" she asked now starting to feel uncomfortable.

"You look like that. I mean one minute you where our cute little Mai and the next you're a se-" Bou-san trailed off afraid to finish his sentence. Mai could see a deep blush come on his face. She just giggled.

"Thank you Bou-san but this is how I actually look." she said. Bou-san just stayed quiet. Mai giggled again. Just then Brandon came running back into the room. He face as serious as death.

"We have to go now." he said gesturing to the portal Mai opened.

"Why what's wrong." Mai said worried.

"Hiro's here." he said. Mai eyes widen. Her heart quicken as the felling of fear enter and shock her body.

"No he is dead father killed him." I said shaking.

"I thought he was too but his back now and we know he wants you." he said.

"What does he want with Mai." Naru asked emotionless. But deep down inside he was terrified. He didn't know what was going on. He was scared. Something he hasn't felt in a long time.

"He wants her dead." Brandon replied. Naru eyes widen a bit.

"Why"

"We'll explain everything later, but right now we have to go bef-" he was cut off by and explosion. The front door burst open revealing a teen about 19. He had blonde hair and baby blue eyes. His skin was sickly pale.

"Get in the portal now. I hold him off." Mai demanded as her eyes became blood red. Everyone ran into the portal. Naru stopped by Mai.

"Mai, I-"

"Naru please just go to Andrea. I'll be there in a second. I'll be fine." Mai interrupted and gave him a reassuring smile. Naru sighed and stood near the portal waiting on Mai. 'he is so stubborn' Mai thought. She then shook her head and focused on the problem in front of her.

"Pleasure to see you again. Hiro." she said sarcastically. The blonde smirked.

"Oh please. They pleasures mine., princess." he said as he bowed. " Have you reconsidered my offer."

"The answer is still No." Mai sternly said.

"Oh that's too bad." he said as the smirk on his face grew. "Now I have to kill you."

"No it's too bad for you." she replied. As she did a blinding light grew from her. Hiro covered his eyes with his arms and trying to stand his ground. 'she has gotten stronger.' he thought.

Then there was another explosion.

"Mai!" Naru yelled just before the light consumed everything.

"Mai…"
