I not own.. wonder if I have to write this on the next chapter's since I've written it so many times already!

File 2.

A Snowy Bloodbath.

Naru stared at Mai, the names ringed in his head and a lot of questions followed "Mai.. I have never met you before!" the woman looked at him "you have, just ask Gene.. I don't know why I remember it when you don't, since I was 4 and you 6, still.. that was when my powers awakened, but.." "then why didn't you tell us back then!" Mai looked down "I promised mom and dad I would never tell anyone!"

"Mai.." Naru asked, Mai turned to him and her blush darkened "w-what?" "is your hair dyed?" somehow that question had stuck in his head when he heard her story, she nodded "yes, why?" Naru shook his head "nothing.." he turned into his narcissist-mode and got over to his chair and turned the button to the light, making the light stronger, Mai winced slightly, but soon she got used to the light "Naru.. when will we be heading back, I'm worried about Chiharu's family" Naru looked at her "not today, I'll be going back today to exorcise the spirits!" Mai's eyes widened "just exorcise the bad spirits, then Tsukiko-san will be purified!" she said, he picked up his folder and opened it "then, where is those spirits residing.." he stopped himself and got up "just stay here, we'll come and get you later!" the he left, leaving the girl to glare annoyed at the door.

"Stupid, narcissistic JERK!"

One hour later.

"Lin.. get ready!" Naru said as he opened the door to their base, where the other's had been waiting for a word from Naru, they all looked up, nearly jumping into the roof in mild shock.

"Naru-chan, stop scaring us!" Bou said and sighted, a hand on his chest.

Lin looked at him as Ayako stood up "Mai then, is she okay?" Naru walked by her and sat down on a chair, Ayako glared at him before he answered "she's okay, alive and awake!" they all sighted, pleased with the answer, then Lin looked at Naru, stopping his typing on the computer and stood up, readying himself, then Naru looked at the papers in his folder "Bou-san, Brown-san, I want you to get ready to exorcise spirits.." they both nodded, Masako looked at him then she looked around "the evil spirit isn't here right now!" Naru didn't answer .

"Get ready!" he said and got up, took of the jacket he had used while being outside, they all stared as one of his wrists became visible for some seconds "Naru-chan, what's that?" Bou asked, Naru raised an eyebrow and looked at his wrist, then pictures raced through his head.

"Owiver-kun!" Mai exclaimed as she ran towards him, he turned and smiled, although irritated that she wasn't able to say his name right "it's Oliver Mai, try to use the L more!" Mai smirked and laughed at him, then she grabbed his hand, the 6 year old stared at her as she fastened something on his wrist, then she let go and the boy had to stare at the small bond around his wrist.

It was a plain blue colour, but it had two shades of blue, she smiled "my eye-cowour and yours!" she said and smiled even more, he stared at the braclet for some more time before he looked at Mai "um.. thank you!" he said, a light blush playing across his face.

Mai smiled more and took both his hands "I wike you Owiver-kun!" the boy reddened and stared at her, he hadn't expected that out of the blue "um.. it's I like you Mai!" she poffed her cheeks and glared at him, making him chuckle "but.. I like you too Mai-chan!" she giggled and kissed his cheek "then, wets marry when we grow up!" Oliver's eyes widened and his blush darkened more "M-Mai-chan.." then he nodded slightly and leaned in, kissing her right on the lips.

Naru stared at the bond for so long that the others began to feel worried, but as soon as he shook his head, they all lost interest in him, turning their interest back at the bracelet.

"But where did you get it, it looks home-made!" Bou commented.

Naru didn't answer at first, then a small smiled played across his face "a childhood friend!" they where all taken aback, Naru smiling was one of the rarest sight in the world probably, even Lin had to stop and make sure it wasn't just his mind playing him.

The man turned away and without anyone seeing his face, a thought raced through his mind "I guess that promise.. should I hold it, or?" he felt heat rise to his face and he had to sight in displeasure, not being used to blushing like that, after the blush had calmed, he turned and stared at the people around him "then, lets go and find those spirits.. tomorrow the girls will disappear is we don't hurry!"

They all nodded and prepared to take down the men "Noll!" Gene's voice rang in Naru's head and he almost stopped his actions "what.. is Mai in danger again!" he almost expected it, but instead, Gene answered something else.

"Did you just remember something from the time when you first met Mai-chan?" Naru did stop this time "how did you.." "of course I knew, I let you see it, since you can't remember anything of meeting Mai-chan at all!" Naru frowned, making the other around stop, stare and gawk at the next face naru made.

He blushed.

"Gene, shut it..." "why, you accepted her then, why not now too... and I really wanted you two to marry!" this made the blush darken.

"Gene.. it's not like that" "now you shut up Oliver, you know what Mai-chan feels for you and you don't dare say you never knew and that it was her fault that YOU kissed her!" Naru looked down and began to walk again, ignoring the whispers behind him "Gene.. it's not.." "it's not what, you don't see her as a possible girlfriend!" Gene shouted in his head, obviously angry and Naru nearly winced out loud at the tone in his twin's voice.

"Gene.. I don't know, I'm not that good with these kind of feelings.. but I'm pretty sure I like her, I'm just not sure it's love or just friendly like yet!" Naru sighted inwardly and tried not to look to hurt or worried.

Then they where in the living-room, Masako winced and looked away "they're here.. this was" "the young girl they killed, Reiko Chiharu's bedroom!" Naru simply said, they all stared at him "how did you.." Ayako asked "Mai!" they all made a 'ooh' sound and turned to their tasks, Lin and Naru kept by the door, Masako beside him and Ayako beside her, ready to protect in case the spirits got violent.

And so, they began to exorcise, John on one side of the room and Bou on the other, as they chanted in their ways, the room darkened and the temperature dropped drastically, Masako gasped and looked like she wanted to shrink away, Ayako laid a hand around her and prepared to protect the medium.

The spirits was cold, dark and evil, so much was obvious, but they hadn't expected them to lash out at Ayako of all people "you little witch!" they yelled and tried to get closer to her, but failed as John chanted and Bou began his usual protection to make the spirits go away, but they didn't disappear, instead they stood on one place, watching them, suddenly another spirit appeared and they where all shocked out of their pace, it appeared to be a woman in her late 20's and she awfully alike Ayako, her reddish hair and mild smile made them all think of Ayako when she was taking care of children.

"Ayako.. what tha.." Bou said and stopped his chanting, wich he regretted not long after when the evil spirits lashed out at him, pushing him hard into the wall and blowing the air out of his lungs.

"Bou!" Ayako shouted and ran over to him, he grunted and sat up slowly, wincing and holding a hand to his left ribcage, Ayako crouched beside him and placed a hand beside Bou's "you ribs are probably broken!" the man groaned and lifted a hand "Ayako, that woman looks like you!" he commented, trying to sound funny, then he winced in pain and if he hadn't been hurt, she would've hit him "I know idiot.. but I've never seen her be.." then she stopped herself and paled "it can't be.. Yuka?" she whispered, this made Naru jerk his head towards her and then he frowned "Mitsuzaki-san, did you know Tsukiko Yuka?" Ayako nodded "yes.. she is my great great-grandaunt, my grandmother told me about her, she died young, found dead after falling off a cliff!"

Naru frowned even more, furrows deepening on his forehead "the evil spirits might think you are her, since you look alike!" he looked at Lin, who nodded and walked over to Ayako and Bou, who both looked at him in wonder.

"We need to get you out of here Mitsuzaki-san!" Lin said, Ayako nodded, but refused to leave Bou.

Lin nodded and helped the man up, they all rushed to the door, slightly slow because of Bou, but reached never-the-less, the spirits eyed them and prepard to attack again, John began to chant again, faster this time.

"Our Father who art in heaven, God have mercy on us, and bless us. May he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God, and the light shineth in Darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it... In Prispio!" he said, spraying holy water around the room, the spirits seemed to be in pain, then they disappeared, the woman looked at them and then she smiled more "thank you.." then she disappeared.

The Day After.

Mai sighted as she noted down yet another thing on the rather large paper, of course, right after she had gotten out of the hospitale, Naru had given her the pile of work she needed to do, sadly, that began on the way back from the Satoru town.

Mai stretched and then winced, holding her ribcage "I thought it had stopped!" she groaned and then she stood up, deciding to make some tea, to herself and the men in their offices "Taniyama-san?" Mai spun around and had to hold a hand against her chest "Lin-san, don't scare me like that!" Lin nodded and then he moved closer, he had just come out of the door as Mai had stretched and so he might have heard what she said.

"Do you have another injury?" he asked, moving closer to her.

Mai froze "huh.. n-no, of course not!" she said, waving her hands in front of her, and to worst timing did Naru come out of his office too "Mai?" he asked, Lin looked over his shoulder before led Mai to the couch and forced her to sit down, Naru looked at them before he walked after, a weird feeling growing when he saw Lin touch Mai "what is it Lin?" he asked and stood beside Lin.

The Chinese man nodded to Mai "Taniyama-san do you really not have any injuries?" Mai blushed "n-no.. why?" Lin made her lift her left arm, then her right, when she lifted her right, she winced in pain.

Lin gave Naru a pointed look before he looked back at Mai "maybe we should get you to a doctor!" Mai paled "n-no, no need Lin-san, it's okay, it'll go over!" Naru raised an eyebrow "when you hurt, doubt it" Mai frowned "it's okay, it's an old injury, healed long time ago so no offence, it's not gonna bother me anyway!" Lin also looked like he didn't believe her, but he let it go, wich Naru didn't.

"Mai, go to the doctor!" Mai puffed her cheeks "and if I don't!" Naru raised an eyebrow "then you'll be in charge of all the paperwork!" Mai gawked "you can't be serious!" it turned out he was too!

Another file finished, feels great ^^

Let me hear your thoughts.. :D

Next Chapter: "okay.. later Naru... wha.." she yelped as she yet again was pulled back and then lips where on hers, her eyes widened before she had no option, but to melt into the kiss.
