File 2.

A Snowy Bloodbath.

Mai ran, she ran and ran, but whatever she did, she couldn't outrun them.

"Why didn't I ask questions earlier, why didn't I turn back for the calls!" she questioned herself as tears formed once again in her eyes, her feet hurt and she was dizzy from the running, she heard shouts behind her, but didn't turn to look, she knew if she did, she would be caught and killed.

"Those damn.. why, why you, oh poor you little Reika-sama.." memories of what she had seen flashed through her head and Mai hissed as she stopped by the edge of the woods, the cold snow had wet the end of her clothes long ago, yet, she didn't feel the cold anymore, she heard the shouts close in and choose that time to begin and run again, her feet ached under her and she barely managed to hold herself up anymore, suddenly the ground was gone and she looked out on a wide scenery, she had reached the cliff faster than she thought and waved with her hands to the side, sadly she couldn't regain her balance and fell forward with a scream.

Then the dream went away and Mai was standing on a green, open meadow, a small girl and an older boy played, their parents where beside them, suddenly the girl fell and Mai ran to the rescue "are you okay Reika-sama?" she asked, Reika smiled and nodded, although she was psychical weak, she never once complained, there was something off, she knew that, but she never questioned the family, they had always been nice to her and she knew better than to opose them.

A pair of men appeared in the horizon and the head of the family greeted them, unknowingly that Reika had frozen, clinging to Mai for dear life "Reika-sama?" she looked up at the men, they both looked like two normal men, but she knew better, they both looked at the girl, and their friendly look disappeared with a lustful and evil look, Mai closed her arms around the girl who was now silently crying "those two.." Mai thought and glared at them, she slowly understood why she was so scared.

Mai had seen the around their house for several weeks now, they both sneered at her and then turned away, back to Ichirou, who smiled to them, he had not noticed the change of those men and the change of his daughters attitude.

"They have to be punished!" Mai thought, but to her horror, that never happened.

Day 3.

Mai opened her eyes slowly, her mouth was dry and her eyes felt heavy and itchy, the whole room was dark, not one single bit of light.

She turned her head and winced when the light came through a small crack in the curtains, someone moved in the dark "Mai?" this voice made Mai blush deep and ending up thanking who-ever turned the light off.

"N-Naru?" Mai tried, her voice was hoarse and she felt like she had been screaming for ours to no end.

"Don't talk Mai, your still not healed, your voice probably wont in these next days!" Naru told her, she nodded, then she realised once again that he couldn't see "oh.. w-what happened?" she continued, then she shivered, even thought the lights where off, she could feel Naru's glare and found out his location in the dark "you swallowed several pills of Atropine, if we hadn't gotten to the hospitale in the time we did, you would've been dead.. Atropine is deathly for those who does not need it and certainly not in a large dose either!" Mai blushed and again thanked the room for being dark.

"Hm.. why is the room dark then?" Mai asked "you have photophobia... wich means.." "yeah, I know.. I'm not stupid Naru, pain in the exposure light" Naru stared at the black-haired shadow, amazed that the woman had gotten so smart since left, well, she was always smart, but she was just so fun to tease back then.

"Um.. Naru, where the others?" Mai asked, Naru blinked "they're at the Chiharu residence, they're waiting there for orders, I'm gonna tell them today to exorcise the spirit that attacked you!" to his surprise didn't Mai protest, in fact she did the opposite "do that.. make those men suffer!" an eyebrow rose "Mai, did you have a dream?" "y-yeah.. two men, er.. they where doing 'stuff' to the daughter of the house, Reika... she was psychically weak and need a nurse around her 24\7, that nurse, Yuka.. I was her, I saw how they looked at Reika.. and they're the reason girls around 6 disappear and then re-appear.." Mai stated, she shivered and tried not to show it, despite the dark room, Naru had long ago gotten used to the dark and moved closer "Mai.. who was this Reika?"

"Chiharu Reika, 6 years old, second child of Chiharu Ichirou, the men found out that Yuka had found their secret, they had been sneaking into their house for weeks and doing bad thing to the girl, the next day Reika was found dead.. and Yuka was accused.. but those men that she killed her, that she was a witch, sadly she hadn't managed to tell anyone about the secret so she ran.. and ran until she ran of a cliff and died, she haunts this place in order to save girls from men, those men where in their 40's so she take them so they can't hurt anyone.."

Mai took a long breath, her voice was cracked now, there was no way she could talk any more now.

"Mai.." Mai looked up, Naru was sitting right beside her and she could see every line of the man's face, his blue eyes that gave nothing away and that, wait, Mai stopped her train of thought and nodded "thank you.." Mai gawked, she could never get used to Naru saying 'thank you' such a shock that she almost fell of the bed if Naru hadn't caught her.

"Mai?" he asked, she blushed as she noticed she was in his arms, he was so close and she could hear his heartbeat "wait.. why are they so loud... and fast?" only one thing came to her mind and she went deep red.

"Naru.." Mai began and looked up, and she regretted it the very next moment, since Naru was so close, she had locked her lips on his when she had looked up.

She stared, red-faced into his eyes as he looked back "woah.. is he blushing!" Mai thought and almost wanted to wrap her arms around him in happiness, before she knew it though, Naru had closed his eyes, wrapped his arms around her waist, pulled her closer and was not deepening the kiss.

Mai blushed madly, but didn't push away.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and closed her eyes to, his lips where soft, compared to the rash words that usually escaped that perfectly lined mouth, Naru had similar thoughts, but he wasn't really shocked, actually he liked it very much, her soft lips was smaller than his, much like an average girl, but yet, it had a sweet taste and seemed to fit perfectly to his'.

When air was needed, Mai pulled apart and they where both panting slightly, although blushing, Naru managed to regain some of his pride and cough slightly, this made Mai laugh, then she coughed too, but in pain.

"N-Naru.." Mai began, but a hand where quickly covering her mouth "Mai, don't speak!" Naru told her, she obeyed and shut her mouth "I'm really not sure what the hell is going on, but.. apparently... well, according to Gene I'm in love with you.. dunno what the hell he was meaning but.." Mai gawked in shock, he didn't know what love was!

She chuckled and used a hand to irk Naru's hand off her mouth "then.. I'll teach you!" she exclaimed and smiled to him, still her blush stayed and the first thing that hit Naru's mind was how cute she looked, he had always thought that, but he didn't think he had been thinking about her in that way at all.

Then she stopped "Gene.. he told you!" she asked, then she turned slightly angry "G.E.N.E!" she shouted in her mind, soon an answer came, but it wasn't Gene "Mai, shut up.. or you'll blow both our brains!" Mai gawked "I... I have never been able to.. to" "to do telepathy or!" "no.. telepathy I can do, but not with you.. or at least not before, this is the first time!" "oh.. I see you've finally gotten together!" Gene smiled as he appeared before them and they both took on their killer-aura and Gene backed off, a nervous smiled making it's way to his face.

"Gene.. why didn't you tell me earlier that you where still here?" Naru asked, his twin-brother-ghost laughed "I had planned to move on, but I guess I still wanted to watch over my little 'sister'!" he exclaimed with a large grin, making Mai blush deeply "Gene.. stop that!" Mai protested and tried not to punch the ghost, because, believe it or not, she was powerful enough to touch, see and talk to a ghost without dreaming, and punching included.

"Mai.. go to sleep!" Mai turned to Naru "w-what.. but I'm okay, not sleepy or anything.." Naru glared "your still not healed, sleep now!" Mai huffed and laid down, soon she was asleep and Naru tried to move when he noticed that his left hand was tangled with right.

He sighted and turned to Gene "that day.. before the case, what did you want to tell me?" Gene froze in his thoughts and backed off "n-nothing.. I think, I've seemed to forget it.." he laughed nervously and tried not to piss of his twin.

"Gene.." his ghost-twin jolted and laughed again in the same manner "o-okay okay, here goes nothing.. she'll kill me though!" Gene sighted as he floated closed to his brother "Oliver.. she isn't human... easy and plain!" he first said, calculating Naru's reaction, when he only raised an eyebrow in a challenging manned, Gene took the chance and itched closer "she's nothing of this planet, or world for that matter... she is one of God's helpers!" this threw Naru off everything he had expected, he even thought she had made a pact with the devil, but God, when?

"Gene.. when?" they silenced a bit when Mai mumbled in her sleep, but stayed in it, he turned to Gene "it's okay, I'm letting her dream of the few times she had with her parents.. let out the murder.. er, ops I said to much again!" Naru gaped "murder?" Gene sighted "her parent's didn't die in accidents or by sickness, they where killed by something inhuman, most probably a demon of sorts.. since Mai is a child of God, she was often hunted by the demons who wanted her powers, just catching her and giving her to the devil, that would be Satan or Lucifer.. they would get extremely rich and they would get into a higher position.." he stopped and looked at the sleeping woman "she saw it both times when they where killed Noll, she has suffered enough, if God hadn't sent help when he did, Mai would never be here today.. she was hurt by them.. a thorn.."

Naru frowned "thorn, as in the old myth?" Gene nodded "they said that a thorn of evil was what made Judas betray Jesus and give him out!" Naru nodded.

"Naru.." said man looked up, Gene was fading now and his smile barely visible in the dark room "Mai is God's most precious person, Jesus isn't listed there... since it's obvious already.. she cannot die, yet at least and don't let any demons get to her, then she'll be in real danger, and you guys too.." then he was gone, leaving the man in a slight confusedness.

The man turned and looked at the sleeping woman, he used his right hand to brush some black hair away from her face and found himself smiling "Mai.." much to his own shock did he lean in and kiss her, a soft, just go-by-kiss, then he got back to his own chair, flicking a small lamp on, he wrote down the stuff Mai had told him, then eventually falling asleep in that very position.

Ok-ay~... that was.. weird, hadn't expected Naru to act so soon.. oh well, I'm happy, and Gene was scowled by his twin XD

Please let me hear your thoughts!
