File 8.
Twice the Hauntings.
No one knew what Mai meant by hunting a demon, except Naru and Lin, but they didn't really explain it, right now they just wanted to avenge Mai for getting her hurt, well, Naru wanted to kill the demon in the most painful, slowest way possible.
And no one knew where to find this demon, but Mai told them that he kept a close look on Toane, while also keeping Natalie captive until the SPR probably had left and they could no longer protect the girls.
"Naru.." Mai said and her boyfriend turned around to meet her "hm?" he looked right into her deep brown eyes and almost had to hit himself to not kiss Mai throughout until she was a blushing mess in his arms, oh how he hated the fact that she made him act so different and, and horny? Yep, that was the right word and oh so embarrassing too.
"We should head over to the main building, I think that's where Natalie-san is held captive!" Mai stated and Naru nodded, shaking his own, very disturbing thoughts out of his head, he put the files away and put the phone into his pocket, then he and Mai left to find the rest of the SPR team, seeing that Naru had ordered them to set out camera's around the building, since he didn't want Mai to be in danger when he wasn't there.
The exited the building quickly and walked over to the main building, just outside the back door, Ayako was standing and was looking at her nails while a small board was held between her other arm and her waist, just out of coincidence did she look up and saw them, at first she wanted to smirk, but stopped short when Naru's glare reached her faster than his words, Mai just smiled, unknowingly to her boyfriends glares.
"Where are the rest?" Naru asked, Ayako sweat-dropped and was about to answer when the door opened and the team all walked out, they stopped almost at the exact time when they saw Naru and Mai, hand in hand, one with a glare from hell and one with a questioning look.
"Oh.. Naru-chan?" Bou asked, slightly worried for his own well being.
"Your done?" Naru asked, they all nodded as Naru dragged Mai passed them and opened the door, then he entered, she just following with a smile towards the rest of the team, the other men raised an eyebrow "where are you going Naru?" Lin asked, Naru didn't answer so Mai did "search.. for Natalie-san" she stated and they they where gone, the door closed softly behind them before it was brutally opened by Bou as they all rushed through the door in case that demon might appear again, they weren't completely sure if Naru could help her, even though they knew that he had saved Mai earlier.
"Mai-chan.. Naru-chan.. wait for us!" Bou complained as they all walked fast after the couple, who seemed to have disappeared somewhere "we are!" Naru said, from somewhere, but they could see him nor Mai and Bou glared the hall "then where are you!" he asked, he heard low summing and turned, behind him, only Ayako stood and she was looked right back at him with the same expression he knew was on his face too, shock.
"Where are.. everyone?" she asked "I'm right here" they heard John say, seconds later Lin's worried voice joined "I think something is wrong" they all agreed to that.
"What are you waiting for.." Naru yelled, then he stopped as they all heard Mai gasp "I think something really is wrong Naru, I'm loosing my sight of them" Bou glared in the direction of her voice and snorted "welcome after Mai-chan.. we didn't see you at all after you entered this hospital, now I can't see Lin-san nor John!" he complained and threw his hands around to see if he could feel anyone, but failed.
Suddenly Ayako and Bou heard a gasp and turned around, they couldn't see anyone and almost shrugged it off if he hadn't known the voice came from John "you disappeared, Bou-san.. Ayako-san.." he stated and they looked at each other "are we the first to notice?" Ayako asked and Bou nodded "seems so.. Mai-chan.. where are you?" he heard something, a faint yell, but couldn't make out what "Ayako.." Bou began "something is very wrong!" he stated and she hit him "don't you think I've noticed!" she glared at him and he smirked "just had to state it" "yeah, so you, always stating the obvious.. even when you don't need to" she scowled and he frowned "I don't always do that!" he complained.
Over at the other end of the hall Mai was leaning against Naru "Oliver.. I don't think they can hear us anymore, nor see us.." she whispered, she had seen Bou and Ayako moments ago, but then she lost sight of them, Naru too, Lin and John was still there, but obviously they couldn't see nor hear them nor her and Naru either.
Naru nodded "is it him Mai?" she closed her eyes for some seconds, then she opened them slowly "I cannot say.. something is making my focus falter every time I try to see or listen to the others, it's like something or someone is between and being mean!" she said and he nodded "then, lets get on!" she turned her head sharply towards him "what.. no, we can't just leave them!" she said and glared at him, but he ignored her and let something fall to the floor, then he dragged of the protesting Mai off, but she didn't see Lin pick up whatever Naru had let go and unfold it.
Heading towards Basement!
Lin looked at John, then he let the paper fall again and he left with John too, just seconds later Ayako found it and read it too, realising that this was their only way of seeing each other.
In fact, it wasn't only them who couldn't see each other, all three pairs walked right past Madoka, and to Naru's happiness, she didn't see nor hear them, this worried Mai and the rest though "how come no one sees us?" she looked up at Naru, who was walking beside her with a slight glare, holding her hand and staring at the door's around him as they walked down a level and reaching the basement in seconds.
Naru pushed the handle and soon they where inside, but seconds after they had entered, the door slammed shut and Mai spun around, she tried to jerk the door open again, but found it impossible "no way.." she whispered, Naru came over "hm?"
"Oliver.. we're trapped..."
1st Floor.
Ayako and Bou both walked towards the basement, they had already understood that no one could see them, and it seemed John and Lin had discovered that earlier, they where walking around the corner and facing a nurse, then she looked up, for her there was nothing, then, suddenly two people appeared, she nearly shrieked and had to cover her mouth to do so.
"Hu?" Bou let out and Ayako nearly hit him before turning to the nurse "you can see us?" she nodded and Ayako sighed "so, the spell wore off" Bou raised an eyebrow "huh.. what are you talking about Ayako, don't tell me you did that!" she hit him "of course not.. Lin-san.. John, where's Naru and Mai?" she ignored him completely and walked over to the other two men, who had seemed to understand that they had come back to normal, Lin had a frown placed on his face while John's wore an expression of worry "we can't find them.." he stated and Bou snapped out of his thoughts "what.. Mai-chan and Naru-chan is missing?" it wasn't much of a shock, but, what if that thing that attacked Mai earlier would come back!
Bou apologized to the poor nurse before he walked over to the rest "do you think that thing might attack Mai-chan again?" he asked, Lin looked right back at him "I'm not sure, maybe.. but then he wouldn't let Naru come with her.. except.." suddenly all of his features changed and he stared past Bou with a weird look on his face.
So, they all turned and stared at whatever it was, the hall was empty, except, a lonely child running along the hall, it had long brown hair and looked really depressed, then it laughed out in happiness as two other children joined, one with even longer snow-white hair and one with short, black hair, both looked really familiar, yet they couldn't make out who it was.
"Owiver-kun" the white-haired girl said and blushed when the boy, took her hand, the first girl with brown hair stared at them "hehe.. your a couple?" she asked and both turned beet red, it reminded them of a certain, much older couple they knew.
But only Lin looked like it with shock yet, and he was nothing looking very happy.
"Lin-san?" Ayako asked, the Chinese man turned his head towards her "yes?" "what is it?" he sighed "nothing.." then he turned back to the children, they looked really real, maybe to real for Lin's liking "sure?" suddenly another black-haired boy entered through a door "Oliver.. shees.. don't just leave me behind!" the boy said and the other turned "it's because you where slow!" he stated as calmly as ever, maybe too calmly for being a child, Lin actually wondered how long it would take for the rest of the team to catch on and understand that Naru or Kazuya was in fact Oliver Davis.
Apparently it took them longer than he thought.
Oliver, in child form had to say Mai-chan about ten times and Gene's name around fifteen times before they caught on, well, John already understood after one times or something, but he kept his mouth shut with a smile.
"What?" Bou exclaimed and glared at the children, who turned and stared up at them "who are you?" the small Oliver asked, he held little Mai close while Gene stood by close, Ayako crouched "we're someone who visits this place" they children looked around and ten they all nodded, the other girl kept close and looked rather worried.
Lin walked closer "why are you here?" he asked, he looked right at Oliver, who stared back, recognition in his eyes "why are you here?" he repeated and Lin glared "once a brat, always a brat!" of this, he earned a glare from Mai "don't tawk bad about Owiver-kun!" she stated and Lin blinked, he had completely forgotten that Mai was telepathic.
Ayako and Bou was on the floor laughing their mirth out by now, they had never heard Mai talk more childish and Lin had to agree, it was rather cute how she couldn't spell the l right.
"Go home to where you belong!" Lin said and suddenly the girl, who had stayed silent for so long stopped him "no.. I don't want to be alone.." Lin "then you go too, Natalie-san!" he stated and she blinked, then she shook her head "I can't, I'm can't go back.. I-I just can't.." Lin's eyes softened "he keeps you here doesn't he!" the child gasped and confirmed his thoughts.
"Matsuzaki-san, you and Takigawa-san, please go to the basement and search, be careful!" they nodded as they managed to get out of their laughter session as they grew to hear the conversation between the Chinese man and little Natalie.
John came forth "what can I do?" "take them and play with them or something.. I need to sheck out something" and thus, he left poor John with four children from the past, Mai blinked up at the priest "who are you?" she asked and John turned, then he crouched and smiled to the girl "I'm John Brown, a priest" Mai's mouth turned into a big o and she smiled back "Taniyama Mai" she exclaimed and John blinked, he had seen Mai with white hair before, but he had just thought it'd been a part of her powers, was it her real hair-colour.
He looked at the boys and smiled "you?" the one holding Mai just glared and John got a deja-vu feeling, then the other boy smiled "I'm Eugene Davis and this is my brother Oliver.. are you.. English?" the boy finished and John blinked "yes, well, I'm from Australia.." Eugene smiled "me and Oliver is from England!" he explained and smiled even more, John nodded with a smile "then, what do you want to do?" the boys looked at each other before Mai reacted "what about hide and seek, this pwace is perfect for it!" she said, John smiled "sure.. then.." mini-Naru looked up at him "you count!" he stated and the children left John gawking after them, then he sighed "he always where so bossy?" he thought, a very bad thought, seeing that it came from him.
And so, the game began and lucky him, the Tsukashiwa family had cleared out most of the hospital to help with the search of Natalie, John counted till 50 and yelled that those who hadn't hidden had to count, it took him about ten minutes to the Naru junior, then he Eugene and Natalie close to each other, but he couldn't find Mai wherever he searched though, the boys just brushed off his worries "she's really good at hide and seek, I can never win against her!" this made John think of the time he had helped Bou search for Mai when she was possessed.
"Hm.." he walked around, but instead of looking where small children, he looked upwards, soon he found Mai, on top of a shelf, she pouted, but agreed to be pulled down.
The boys both looked at John with amazement "how did you know?" John just smiled it off "I done this before.. when a friend of mine was possessed, she also played hide and seek.. alone, and she climbed into a tree" the children nodded and Mai took his right hand, much to mini-Naru's obvious annoyance "let's all see if there's something more to do!" she said and took Naru's hand, then they all walked off, Natalie took John's left hand and Gene took her hand, they walked off towards the place where John knew fitted for kids their age, except Naru maybe, seeing his was just as mature as he was now.
They all entered the child-zone and three of four left to play, the mini-Naru was the only one staying, then he looked up at John "please hurry to find Natalie-san" he suddenly said, John turned his head slowly and looked down at the child-form of his boss "come again.." he asked, he just had to be sure "Brown-san, I won't pay you for slacking off, Lin went to find Yasuhara, those two monkey's went to search for me and Mai in the basement, but we aren't there anymore!" the boy stated, sounding like his old self and John gawked "S-Shibuya-san.. or.. should I call you.. Davis-san, seeing that we all now know.." Naru waved him off "rather not, I don't want to be called that here" John smiled and nodded, he took up his phone and dialed Lin's number, soon he got through.
"Lin-san, according to Davi.. er Shibuya-san, he and Mai isn't in the basement anymore, should I go get Bou-san and Ayako-san?" "no need to, we just got into the hospitale, they told us right before.. wait, Naru told you that?" John agreed "wait.. where are you right now?" "in the children-play-area!" "wait there.. we'll be there right away!" then the Chinese man hung up on him.
So.. what do you think? ^_^
