Hotel Kinjo case chapter 2

Mai raced through the doors of the SPR building, she looked at the clock, and it read 8:02. "Mai you're late." She turned to find Naru and Lin standing there waiting for her to catch her breath. She blushed and looked away from them blushing even more remembering the dream from last night. Naru frowned then glared at Lin, why is she acting like this? What changed between them? Does she like him now?

They all loaded into the van, Naru sat in the middle giving Mai the window seat so she could be as far away from Lin as possible, not wanting anything else to happen between them. On the road for an hour and a half Mai slowly started nodding off due to how boring it was sitting there doing nothing. Her head slid onto Naru shoulder, he stiffened for a moment then relaxed. Lin looked over at the two of them and smiled, then looked back at the road. "Only two and a half more hours to go." He thought.

Mai's dream

Mai awoke to a dark plane with white lights everywhere, the astral plane. She looked around for Gene not once catching him in her site. The scene morphed into one of a hotel, it was decorated nicely with wedding decorations. "Why her?" a voice hissed behind Mai. She turned around and found a woman with make up running down her face, looking like she could kill someone at any moment. "Why her, when I was with you the longest... you loved me, I know you did how could you just leave me for her? You said we would be together forever?" The woman turned around and grabbed a little boy's arm and started to drag him away. Mai reached out to call her back, but the scene changed. She saw the woman in a dark room, "He never really cared about me, and none of them cared for me. Them and their fake attitudes, she betrayed me... we are sisters how could she! How could they do that to me?!" the woman laughed a painful and sorrow filled laugh. "Well I guess no one will miss me when I'm gone..." the lady turned and grabbed knife and held it to her throat.

"No!" Mai screamed. She was too late the woman slit her throat, blood sprayed everywhere. Coating Mai as she watched the lady fall over, her body gushing blood with every slowing heartbeat.

In the car

Mai stirred and mumbled incoherent things, Naru looked at her then "No!" Mai screamed reaching her hand in the air. Both Naru and Lin flinched.

"Mai!" Naru yelled trying to wake her from the nightmare. Lin pulled to the side of the road and looked at Mai and Naru. Mai's eyes snapped open and looked in the mirror. Her eyes widened and she began to scream and wiped her face hard trying to rub away the red liquid that she was drenched in. Naru grabbed her hands to stop her, "Mai stop it before you literally rub your face off!" She stopped and looked back in the mirror, noticing that there was no more blood on her. She turned to Naru and big crocodile tears fell from her eyes she flung herself at Naru crying her eyes out. She just wanted to cry out everything she saw. Naru froze then slowly wrapped his arms around Mai pulling her closer, Lin started the van again. After an hour Mai finally calmed down enough to talk, "Mai, what happened, did you have one of those dreams?" Naru asked while petting her head trying to calm her more. She shivered and nodded. "Will you tell me?" he asked trying to get her to look at him.

She grabbed her sides and began to shiver harder, "I-is it j-just m-me or is it-it f-freezing in here?" Mai's teeth started chattering.

"Mai?" Naru looked at her shaking.

Mai looked at him, her vision blurred. She swayed whispering, "Why Lin?" then everything went black. Naru caught Mai as she fainted.

He touched her forehead, "Lin she's burning up..." Lin nodded then looked at the town coming up. Naru narrowed his eyes at Lin, "What did she mean by that Lin?" Naru asked.

"I'm not sure." Lin stated. "We're just about ten minutes out."

"Lin... What happened between you and Mai?" Naru asked again this time glaring at the man driving.

"Honestly Naru I don't know what happened she's been like that for the past few days I'm sure you noticed her acting different." He said looking at the jealous teen sitting next to him. The next few minutes were spent in silence until they arrived at the hotel the owner was waiting outside the Kinjo Hotel.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Shibuya-san welcome to my Hotel." Mr. Kinjo Lin greeted.

"Mr. Lin, please show us to the base once we get there, Lin start unloading the van." Naru said turning around to follow the owner. "Also can you show me where the rooms are?" Naru said gesturing to the girl in his arms.

"Oh my! What happened to Miss Taniyama-san?!" Mr. Lin asked.

"Honestly I'm not sure, she has a fever and I would like her to rest now." he answered letting a brief moment of worry glimmer in his eyes.

"You must really Love Miss Taniyama-san huh?" Mr. Lin said staring at them warmly.

Naru's eyes widened a bit, me love Mai that's impossible Naru thought. Nothing is impossible and you know that, Naru heard an unknown voice in his head and decided to push those thoughts aside.

"Now here are the rooms you requested I put them by each other so it would be easier to help ya'll keep close."

"Thank you Mr. Lin." Naru said.

"Just call me Kinjo since there is another Lin here, it makes things easier for all of us." Kinjo said rubbing his head shyly.

"Alright then Kinjo" Naru said walking into to one of the rooms, and carefully set Mai down on one of the beds. He tucked her in and whispered, "Mai when you wake up I'll have Miss Matsuzaki check on you." He leaned forward and pressed his forehead against hers'. He walked out the door to the room that was soon to be the base, to help Lin set it up.
