Mai was working overtime at the office, and had finally finished sorting old case files. Over the past month, Naru had been trusting Mai more, and allowed her to do more around the office. She had been filing more papers, putting away the maps and information Naru had collected when trying to find his dead brother. On the last case, Naru had found him and explained to the rest of the team about his brother. Since they got back from the case, Naru had told Mai to start putting away all of that stuff and put it with all the other stuff that they were packing. So when Mai asked to stay overtime today to finish filling from a case, Naru agreed and let her lock up. " Just make sure you don't destroy the place." He had told Mai.

"Why?" she wondered. As she sat down on the large couch and sighed. "Why does Naru have to be such a narcissist all the time!" No matter what she did, it was imperfect to Naru. Even when she was doing her homework in the office, he was always correcting her. It was nice of him to help her, but then afterwards he would tease her about how stupid she was, and how she should go back to school to become somewhat smart. As Mai was grieving over Naru's pig-headedness, she drifted off to sleep.

Soon after she fell asleep, a tall man wearing dark, shadow like clothes came in. He stood still for a moment looking around the room, then he started walking. He was walking around the office as if he was looking for someone. While passing the long dark couch, the man spotted Mai. He stood still after spotting her, and just admired her sleeping figure. "Mai." the man said. As she was sleeping on the couch, she was thinking about Gene. 'Where is he?' she was thinking.

After the last case and discovering that "Dream Naru" was really Naru's twin brother Gene, she had grown to understand why he was so much nicer to her in her dreams, then in reality. Gene had told Mai that he was her spirit guide and was leading her through her dreams on all of the cases they had been on. He also explained to her more about PK and about her powers. To Mai, Gene was her best friend. As Mai was wondering where Gene was, Gene had started to admire her in the 'real world'.

As Gene reached out to Mai, he wondered what her reaction would be when she discovered that she would never see him again. Tomorrow was the day that his brother Noll would be taking his body back to England, so that he could finally be put to rest. Mai didn't know about this, because his idiot scientist of a brother didn't tell her yet. The truth was that he didn't want to leave her, but he had to. As Gene got closer to the still figure, he started to caress her face. "Goodbye Mai, be safe." As he said this, he bent down and kissed her forehead, then disappeared.

When Mai woke up the next day, she was confused for two reasons. One was why Gene wasn't in her dream last night. Even when they didn't have a case coming up, he would still be there and they would just talk about things. The second was she didn't realize where she was. "Where am I?" She asked herself. After looking around for a few minutes, she realized that she was still in the office at SPR. Realizing that Naru would be surprised that she was actually on time to work for once, she took advantage of the situation. It would be at least an hour until Lin and Naru would be coming in. Since she knew that Naru would be demanding tea when he saw her at the office, she decided to start making his tea. Getting up from the couch, she walked towards the kitchenette to start on his tea. 'Today will be full of surprises!' Mai thought, and she was right. It was going to be a day full of surprises.
