New Memories (Ghost Hunt Fan-Fic) (HIATUS)

Chapter 14: No Escape

Mai's P.O.V.

I run throughout the barren hospital, occasionally bumping into abandoned wheelchairs. Footsteps follow my path the whole way, a mere couple meters away. What do these people want? To kill me? M-Money? No, then why would that one guy -Oliver - look into my eyes? Why would he be toying with my memories?

(And then I'm running, running from the unknown person behind me. ) My own voice travels within my mind. Huh?! This-this feels like Deja vu! Blurry images of doors and shadows and rooms stain my vision.

Tears occupy my eyes and cheeks. I continue running until finally, I cannot run anymore.

My legs stop moving, my body slumps down, and my eyes shut close after what seems like an eternity, the last of my energy conserved for the future while the two dark figures lean down to inspect me...

I struggle to keep a hold on my consciousness, mentally making my self stay awake.

The mean-looking boy- I mean, Oliver, carefully took my hand in his, and I thought I heard him whisper, "Mai, this is for your own safety. We need to ensure that you-" He breaks off, voice cracking ever so slightly as he looks away, and then back. "-That you forget about me."

I stare at him questionably while struggling. Why wouldn't I be safe? Oliver moves aside, allowing Eugene to step forward. Now it was his turn to take my hand. "I really am sorry... Mai." Before I can even start to question him, he puts his hands over my eyes. I could literally feel the powerful energy inside me begin to swirl, and I slowly lost myself in a sea of memories - memories that I couldn't tell which were real... Or false. And then-

I wake up.

(PRESENT TENSE) Gene's P.O.V.

I look at Mai for the nth time to check her condition: Still KO. She was laying on the bench, I was across from her on a swing.

Sighing, I shove my hands in my pockets. This was the only way to reactivate her altered recollections. I had to save my idiot brother, and she was the only one who could help.

The date we're on was simply a cover-up to do said terms, but it was still pretty enjoyable... I mean, Mai is really hot, like, seriously. And she's a really nice and sweet girl, she just can't see it herself. Hopefully, in the future, my idiot brother will have a chance to steal her away before I take her for myself. (HEHEHE) But, on a more serious note, that's only if he can be woken from his current coma. The toll on him for saving me, was to suffer the same experience I had went through, but it hadn't taken activation until just last month.

I glance at my watch (Again, for the nth time). 7: 56. Ugh, this is taking too long. She should be out by now. It usually only takes 45 minutes, two hours at most... But this is MAI we're talking about, and she's special in ways I can't even begin to comprehend.

Suddenly, I hear a shift in the air and I snap out of my flashback. In front of me is Mai, awake and sitting up. She looks around and spots me. Her gaze goes from confused, to angry. I gulped.

"...Eugene?" Mai asks cautiously, but I can feel the menace behind it.

"Y-yes. Hey there, Mai-Bunny." I say, trying to smile, and FAILING MISERABLY. I tried using the nickname I had made for her when she was "sleeping." Her face went red, and I wondered if it was from embarrassment, or anger.

"What are you doing here?" She could barely spit out the words. Angry, definitely angry.

(STILL Present Tense) Mai's P.O.V.

As soon as my eyes opened, I knew that I was back in the present. I was still at the park, the one I went to with Gene. WAIT A SECOND. EERRRRGGGHHHH! "Gene", as in- I looked forward and spotted him. "Eugene?" My anger flared, and( I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but) when I'm mad, I'm MAD.

"Y-yes. Hey there, Mai-Bunny." He says it nervously, and I realize what he called me. My face flushes in more anger, basking in the fear of the boy "Eugene".

"What are you doing here?" I hope my frustration showed.

He gulped. Hmm, I guess it did.
