"Naru" shouted Mai

"Mai" called Naru as he pulled her down with him of the bed and unto the floor as the knife headed their way. To Naru however the knife seemed like it was purposefully thrown at Mai as if it was to get her out of the way. To Naru who in a weird sort of way had just admitted his feelings to Mai did not and would not loose Mai, in fact he vowed to never loose another important person in his life again. Because of that instinct took over and he managed to push the both of them of the bed and unto the carpeted floor as the knife hit the dead center of the bed.

The ghost was pissed that her target survived and that the person who it wanted with her was the one who helped save her new enemy. Due to her anger object started to float above them and pointed towards the couple. (Naru on the ground with one leg up and the other down, holding Mai who was on top of him with her left leg between his and holding his back with her face buried in his chest dew to the fact that she was pulled down with him)

It took Mai a few minutes before she removed her head from Naru's chest to look up at Naru's face only to see him looking above them with an impassive face on and also looking like he was thinking about something which confused her to no end, to find out why he was looking like that she followed his gaze only to stare with wide eyes at what was above them. She was scared for the both of them as she saw the furniture's and other objects directly above them and the others in the room pointing at them, she stared at it with freight and with wide eyes just in time to feel Naru slightly move her, as if any minute he mould push her out the way of the objects. She looked back at him to see the determination in them and a slightly sad look in his eyes for a brief second, she looked at him until it finally clicked in her head and she realized what he was about to do when she felt him loosen his hold on her and started to push her away only to feel her shaking slightly and gripping his hands for dear life.

"NO NARU" she practically yelled at him, don't use your ability you know you'll end up in the hospital" she half shouted/ half cried as she started to pound on his chest lightly as the tears fell down her eyes at an unimaginable rate, she could feel his body being surrounded by an invisible wall as he slowly pushed or attempted to push Mai away again. "Mai" he said impassively. "I have to or the both of us will get hurt or end up dead"

Again she fought him trying to prevent him from saving her and getting hurt.

"NO Naru, YAMETTE', I don't want to loose you… please" she begged as she refused to let him go, her tears resumed falling down her face and her grip tightening. Naru looked at her face and for a split second you could see pain in his eyes. He hated to see her cry, especially if he was the one to make her cry.

"Mai, I need to get you out of here, I'm sure I won't die but it will be easier for me to use my PK if you're not around me that way you won't get hurt by me or the ghost.

"No Naru, I' not leaving you, you'll end up in the hospital." He had slowly dimmed his pk so it wouldn't hurt Mai or hurt her to much, due to his observation skills he seemed to realize that his pk wasn't hurting her. Slowly as to test something he allowed his pk to spread a little bit and thanks to their close proximity and Mai holding him he tried to see if it would hurt her or if maybe she was a perfect medium. To his surprise and shock she didn't seem hurt. She only looked at him as if expecting him to explain. "Naru what's that? It feels like something is running through me? What is it?" she asked him confused. To her delight she saw him smirk, and although it wasn't a smile, it looked genuine and made her heart beat faster. "It's my PK Mai. It seems like you're a perfect medium and you can channel my pk so it won't go out of control and I won't end up in the hospital."

She ended up smiling at that and asked what she could do so that they could get out of the mess they were in together and very much alive. Just as he was telling her what to do, the ghost seemed to get even angrier and the objects above them started to fall downwards on them at an unimaginably fast speed. Naru seeing this held Mai closer and allowed his pk to spread to her, her body managed to channel it and bounced back to him just as fast as he controlled to flow of where his pk would travel, it formed a protective barrier around the both of them and allowed most of the object to dissipate the moment it touched the barrier while some of the heavier and larger objects were sent in the opposite direction, some managing to hit the wall and making a bang or breaking and hitting other objects that flew towards them.

The other regulars

Lin, being the closest to Naru heard the screams of the occupants closest to him and immediately got himself presentable before he ran towards the screams. As soon as he entered the hallway he was face to face with Bou-san.

"Lin what's going on?" Asked Takigawa as the both of them kept running towards their boss's room only to be shock at what they saw. The first thing they noted was that there was objects flying above them and in the dead center of those objects appeared Naru and Mai in a very intimate position. Not long after their arrival the rest of the team came only to stare wide eyed and gape at the scene before them. Naru was on the carpeted floor, his right knee up and his left laid flat on the ground, his right hand was on the floor supporting his body weight while his left was around Mai's shoulder, she had her right knee in between his and her left was on the other side of his left, both her hands were holding him and their faces were mere inches apart. It sounded like they were saying something however they couldn't understand what they talking about. Within minutes objects started to fall and just as they were about to chant/pray a barrier seemed to have formed around Naru and Mai and the objects started to disappear or fall on other sides of the room.

Lin was the first to react sending his shiki's after the spirit that he finally spotted after the objects started to disappear from Mai and Naru who weren't paying attention. It wasn't until the monk started to chant that the two teens finally spotted the rest of the team. Both teens still in their position finally looked up to see the rest of the gang gaping at them (except Lin, he didn't gape, though you could still see the surprise in his eyes), at first they were surprise but they still remained in their spot for a few more minute before the monk started to smirk and the Miko started to make suggestive comments, Masako kept sending death glares at Mai and John started to blush. It took them a few minutes before they realize their position and Mai literally jumped of Naru her face completely red. Naru followed suite and slowly stood up before he took out his black pen and notebook as if nothing had happened.

"Lin, it seems like Mai's a perfect medium and can channeled my PK" the others looked back and forth between the three of them before they started making comments about it

"Mai when we get back we'll be doing some experiments on you okay" with that said he when to base and everyone else followed him. "Mai, make sure you are never alone since the ghost is after you"

"Hai, I will Naru"

"Good, because It would be to much trouble to hire another assistant" he replied smirking before he called Lin over to the computers and started to discuss the case. It took the others who had barely gotten any sleep at all to keep her from plummeting Naru to the ground.

'Jerk, he could at least say he's worried' though Mai.

"Oh and everyone else can go back to sleep, we'll be in the base if anything else happens. "

There was a chorus of ": Okays" and "nights" before everyone except for Mai, Naru and Lin left, the remainders went straight to work. (Well Naru and Lin Mai just sat on the coach half sleepily.

"Mai" "Hai, Naru?" "Go to sleep" at any other time she would have argued and shouted at him for ordering her, however she was tired from all that happened to her "Hai" and the moment she was comfortable, she fell asleep. Naru looked at her softly before he returned to his work.
