Sorry about taking so long to write this. I finaly got back in the flow of this story and I will try to update when I can also I am sorry that this chapter is very short.

(Mai's POV)

oh, snap crackers, "Um...oops." I say as I look her in the eyes.

"What do you mean oops! I warned you to stay away from the paranormal Mai...you have always been a trouble magnet." Says Aurora as she placed her hands on her hips and tapped her right foot.

"I have not!" I shout as I force my clenched fist down to my sides.

"Oh Mai you are not fooling anyone...you should have known better." Says Aurora as she crosses her arms in front of her chest as she stares at me with a frown marring her face.

I feel anger boil through my body and as if a sudden collapse I lash out, "No...you have no right to say that you know me and I am not trying to fool anyone...gosh you just can't just think that what you say will decide how I will live my life."

I watch as Aurora's eyes widen before she glares at me and says, "Your right I can't tell you what to do with your life, but guess what...I warned you so you wouldn't get hurt or be forced to get powers that would have stayed dormant until ten years later." I hut as she says this glancing out the front window I hear her say, "I didn't want you to suffer you are too innocent, you know that I wanted you to be safe especially because I have powers as well so I know what powers can do to someone innocent... don't you remember that I connect with spirits, don't you remember how I changed in elementary school that was because my powers had awoken and I was having visions and experiencing their past the best and the worst experiences and the intimate ones as well...seeing all of them as a child breaks people it changes us we are no longer the innocent we are the scared...the broken...the tainted if your powers are that strong that the wounds the spirit felt you feel." As the last word slipped out of her mouth I could see her shaking as tears streamed down her face. "You need to stop before they change who you are as a person," says Aurora as she turns away from everyone and puts her hand over her mouth holding in her cries.

At her pain, I feel sadness and know that I went too far. I start to remember who she was before her powers awakened and then how she changed after they started up. I feel the sadness course through my blood washing away any anger I felt and I quickly walk up to her and place my hand on her shoulder and turn her to face me as I pull her into a hug. As she hugs me back I whisper, "I am sorry I should have thought about this." I feel her cry into my shoulder as her shaking continues until I feel her stop crying as she pulls out of the hug and wipes away her tears as she steps away from me.

"Mai." Says Naru as he signals for everyone to sit down on the sofas. Nodding my head I quickly claim a seat soon after he sits down next to me in the corner of the sofa. I feel the heat as I notice my leg brush against his when I feel a chill run down my spine. I look up to see Aurora looking at me with an arched eyebrow as her eyes glanced between Naru and me before settling back on Naru. Then Naru said, "So why are you here Miss Lux?"

I turn my head and look at Aurora and see her smile before she says, "I came to see Mai...also to lecture her about her job choice, though I came back to Japan to open a branch of my family's privet investigator firms here."

"So you are staying here in Japan indefinitely?" Ask Naru as he interlocks his finger on his lap.

"Oh, no I will only be here until I find my brothers, after that my family is sending someone to take over so I can go back home." Says Aurora as she pulls out her wallet and places a photo of her brothers on the coffee table.

Without thinking I ask, "What do you mean find?"Aurora then turned her face to me and says, "I had a vision of them locked in a room and they were chained to a wall... I know they are alive but I have to find them. Mai, you know that they are my twins and you know how my connection with them." She says as she stares at me, but as she spoke I felt shocked that her brothers were being treated that way.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" I blurt out as I watch her face.

"Mai...you know why I didn't say anything before," Aurora says as she looks down at her hands resting on her lap before looking back up at me.

"But that doesn't make any sense at all Aurora...nevermind that...why were your brothers here in Japan in the first place?" I ask as I keep my focus on her.

"They were studying abroad..." Aurora whispers as she looks out the window next to her.

I whisper an "Oh," as I feel a haze cover my eyes before it faded leaving me staring at Aurora.

As I stare at her I hear a "Hum," from beside me and turning my head I see Naru looking at me. Realization struck at that moment that the others had been there and heard the whole conversation. Before I could say anything Naru said, "Mai."

"Sorry," I whisper as I glance at his eyes before looking back at Aurora. As I am looking at her I see the sadness in her eyes and feel my heart constrict.

"Mai...I need you to see it." Says Aurora as she stares me in the eyes.

Though before I could say anything I am suddenly in a slightly dark rood and I can see her brothers chained up to the wall stepping closer I hear them whispering, "She will come for us don't worry." Then just as fast as it had started it was over and I was opening my eyes and looking at Aurora sitting across from me.

"How..." I ask as I feel myself begin to shake.

"Mai you and I are on the same wavelength...so it was easy for me to send the vision to you," Aurora says as she watches me for any reaction.

"Excuse me are you saying that Mai just experienced your vision because you wanted her to see it." Says Lin as he stops typing momentarily.

"Yes, that is what I am saying except I sent the vision to her," Aurora says as she looks at Lin before looking back at me. I look over at Lin and see him with a Shocked look on his face before looking back at Aurora.

Though just as I am about to say something Aurora gets up as she looks at me and says, "I will see you later Mai." before she turned and gave Yasuhara a kiss on the cheek as she said, "and I will see you tomorrow."

She then grabbed her purse and headed for the door when Naru spoke, "Miss Lux..."She turned her head to see Naru as he continued to speak, "I hope that you find them before it is too late."

Aurora nodded her head as she said, "Thanks'" before she exited the door.

As if on cue Naru said, "Mai...Tea." as he got up and retreated to his office followed by Lin heading to his office.

At his words, I feel anger course through my body as I stand up and head towards the kitchen to make him his dame tea as I mumble, "Narcissistic, tea-loving addict, jerk." I quickly fill the kettle with fresh water and put it on the stove until it was boiling, pulling it off the stove I grab a cup from the cabinet along with the tin of tea bags, and drop a tea bag in the cup before pouring the water in the cup and allowing the tea to seep. I leave the bag in the cup and take it to Naru not bothering to knock on his door. Walking in I set the cup down on his desk.

Though just as I am about to turn and leave Naru says, "Mai..." I look into his eyes and see his pain at remembering his loss of Gene. Without thinking I walk around his desk and hug him while placing my head in the crook of his shoulder. As I allow myself to think I realize that Naru is stiff, and as if I was burned I let go of him and stepped away before leaving his office with a blush dusting my cheeks.

(Naur's POV)

I froze as Mai huged me as she placed her head in the nook of my neck. Then as if she was shocked, she released me and quickly raced out of my office closing the door behind her with a soft click.
