Ghost Hun: Naru X Mai

Chapter 2: Missing Mai

Naru pushed his key into the lock and twisted. He heard a small grunt behind the SPR door, thinking it was only Lin. The door came open like it was another day. Naru was shocked to see the state of the office, the center table was crushed the plants were tipped over spilling out the soil. Broken plates and cups scattered all over the floor near the counter.

Slowly walking in the office and observing if the culprit was still in. Another harsh grunt came from behind the couch. Naru turned to see Lin beaten on the floor, he was bleeding from his nose and mouth.

"What happened here!?"

Naru dropped to one knee to help Lin sit up straight. His expression was neutral as usually but you could tell there was worry in his voice. It's not everyday you return to your office job with it all messed up and in pieces.

"Mai..,Mai was taken."

Lins low voice cracked at the word taken, he grabbed his left side with his right arm hugging his ribs. Lin expected some broken ribs and a very badly bruised lung. He needed medical treatment.

"I'll call the doctor."

Naru rushed to the phone, surprisingly still on it's table and unharmed. The phone rang three times before someone answered.

"Hello, emergence call how can I help you?"

A female voice operator spoke through.

"Yes I have a man who's beaten badly and needs help."

Naru continued to stare at Lin while he struggled to get himself to the other side of the couch.


Lin watched as Naru spoke on the phone, one of his ears was ringing so he couldn't hear any of the conversation. He dropped his exhausted body on the couch with a big huff of breath, he still had trouble breathing which wasn't a good sign.

Lin gently used his hands to feel about his ribs, 3 broken and 2 fractured. He wasn't in good shape, the last time he ever felt this bad was when he went up against Naru.


Naru finished speaking on the phone and walked up to Lin, scanning him up and down for further injuries. As far as Naru could tell he only had a few broken ribs adding cuts and bruises. But all in all he was fine, just going to be hospitalized for a while and some pain killers to help.

"Please explain to me what happened."

Naru placed a hand on Lins shoulder, a comforting gesture coming from Naru. He stared deeply into Lins grey eyes, he wanted answers.
