File 5.

Suspicious Activity.

Day 4.

Mai slumped against the chair, being stuck in the base was the worst and yet, Naru had placed her right there on purpose, she knew it!

Two whole days had passed since they came to the private household of the Furashiwa family, of course, now was the third day they had been here and Mai was still stuck with desk-work "t-that.. that stupid.." she muttered curses and other bad words to a certain and not present narcissist as she dumped her whole upper body on the desk.

Mai yawned and sat up again, refraining from slapping her hands on her cheeks so she wouldn't fall asleep in pure boredom "so tired.." she barely managed to strangle another yawn as she thought about what had happened the pass weeks, so much was on her mind, she barely had time for school anymore, wich she was by now, considering to drop out off.

Then it was the problem of that stalker, it made Mai shudder in fear every time she thought about it and the fact that the shadower was getting more and more aggressive gave her the feeling that it was because she had gotten closer to Naru, wich made Mai blush deeply.

"M-maybe, just maybe.." she thought, happily consumed by her daydream-like memories.

Suddenly the temperature dropped at least 10 degrees and Lin stopped typing on his computer "Taniyama-san?" he wasn't sure if it was her doing since he knew that she had these kind of powers, but the woman didn't look at him, instead she look straight at the door that had closed with a loud smack.

Lin turned his chair completely around, watching in case he had to jump in and save Mai from possible yet another murderous spirit.

"..n.." the sound from the young woman made Lin react differently, he walked over and laid a hand on her should, that's when it appeared.

If it looked like a child once, it surely didn't now.

It's eyes where black holes, traces of blood from both that covered most of both cheeks, the face was grey-white and there was no warmth left in it what-so-ever, gray-blond strands of something that reminded them of hair stuck up from the scull and the child's arms arms was missing from the middle of upper arm and down, blood-staines coloured them and the rest of the body, wich mostly was covered with something that surely was clothes one time.

Mai's eyes saddened, the child couldn't be more than six or seven at the oldest, it opened it's mouth, showing a small line of yellow, bloody teeth and while smiling, it whispered.

"Wanna be my friend!" it croaked.

Lin fastened his grip on Mai's shoulder as the child walked closer, looking up at them "you can come with me.. join me and my friends!"

As the child said that, maybe a hundreds of dolls began to walk in, but not through the door, but through the wall, on every side of them, cornering them to the window behind them.

Mai swallowed and she stiffened as she got up, preparing to launch an attack on the dolls and the child "Lin-san, where are the rest of the team...?" Lin looked at the monitor "they're handling another attack on the other side of the house, but the dolls aren't attacking!" Mai looked at the screen "they're holding them back.. ouch" she mumbled the last part when she saw Naru launch an attack at a small pack of dolls, sending them into oblivion.

Suddenly the child laughed, maniacally and Mai lifted her hand to attack, but the child was faster and Mai was thrown into the glass behind her with a high-pitched shriek, making the glass crack, Lin followed seconds after and slid down to the floor, the now broken window sending a rain of shards over them and Mai covered her face with her hands.

"Taniyama-san are you okay!" Lin asked and sat up properly, whistling to send his Shiki's at the child, who didn't seem affected by it as it just looked at them, obviously she was ignoring the Shiki's!

Mai looked up at him "y-yeah.. um.. you?" Lin nodded at her as says that he was in fact okay and they both turned to child with the small army of dolls, then the child came over, standing before them, just so, someone began to bang the door franticly.

Mai looked ahead of the child with hopeful eyes, but was stopped short when a doll climbed onto her, just like another one did on Lin, unlike the dressed dolls, they weren't, even their face was missing "what's going on!" Mai thought and was hit full time when she realised.

"Become my friends.. forever!" the child laughed, sound far to happy for the two ghost hunters good.

"No.." Mai whispered, tears rose in her eyes and Lin felt himself wanting to swallow.

Then a pain that felt like she was being ripped apart flooded through her body and she screamed, trying hard to fight back the fright and anger she felt was being pulled up to the surface, she vagely heard Lin do the same and someone shout her name, then everything went black.

Mai almost sighted in content, she was floating and she didn't really want to stop, although she didn't know why since she knew that she wasn't supposed too, actually she was supposed to be in the base with Lin and do paperwork, yet she felt so peaceful and calm that she just continues floating around in complete darkness.

If she had turned her head though, her powers would've given her the chance of seeing Lin one more time, floating at least 9 meters away from her and in very much the same fashion too, completely calm and relaxed, yet his Shiki's was trying to get him back into his usual self, wich they sadly failed at.

"MAI!" the voice rang through Mai's head and before she knew it, a man appeared over her, reaching out a hand, but as she was giving in to the darkness and falling into unconsciousness, she didn't feel or see it, just heard the swift motion of a voice that sounded so familiar yet so unfamiliar it made the young woman open her eyes slightly and then she smiled "Oliver.." she whispered, almost as if he was there he leaned down and placed a quick kiss on her lips "Mai, wake up.. NOW!" Mai didn't understand and just furrowed her eyebrows, then she noticed something beside her and finally saw Lin.

Then the child appeared, in the middle of them, humming a song to itself.

Mai's eyes glazed and she fell into a deep slumber, every memory that belonged to her was swept away and when she would wake up, all she knew was that her name was Mai and that she was not where she was supposed to be.

Okay... now I'm being weird right!

Review though!
