Different Feelings ~Ghost Hunt~

Camping Nightmare Part 3

Mai's Pov~

When I woke up, I sat up quickly. My heart was racing and I was sweating. I've never had a dream like that before, I usually have the same dream but with more details for some days yet this one wasn't the same dream. "Mai....," someone whispered my name. I turned around to see Monk reaching for my shoulder. I couldn't help but tear up as I said his name with a trembling voice, "M-M-Monk..." I jump into his arms and started sobbing. I kept saying 'You're alive', I grabbed on to a part of his shirt to know he was actually there. He hugged me tightly to calm me down as I was ruining his shirt with my tears. I felt Yasu's, John's, Lin's, and Naru's presence as I did that but right now I don't care.

After a few minutes I calmed down but I was still uneasy. I sat in his lap covering my face with his chest. I still clutched some of his shirt to know he wasn't going anywhere. He stroke my hair then he said, "Mai... Look at me.." I slowly looked up, my eyes were probably red and puffy from crying. "What happened?" He asked. Before I could answer, the door was opened revealing two worried women. "Mai! Are you okay?! We came as soon as possible!" Ayako said as she came towards me with Masako following right behind her. Masako looked at me with a mad expression. I was about to ask her what was wrong but she pulled me by my wrist. "Monk, Ayako follow me. You four stay here," was all Masako said as we went into my office.

Once we were in my office, she let go of my wrist. "Mai can you lift up your shirt," Masako said. I was confused but I did what I was ordered. I saw Ayako's expression change to shocked while Monk's was angry. He made his hands into fists and hit the rock wall beside him with the side of his fist. Once the side of his fist collided with the wall it made a loud sound which made the girls and I jump. I looked down at my own stomach, the line was still there but that wasn't the only thing there. I had a darker marking around my waist were I was pulled by that dark figure in my dream.

Remembering the dark figure pulling Monk too, I made my way to Monk and lifted his shirt up. I backed up with my hand over my mouth. I heard the girls gasp as I just stared in shock. "H-how...," was all I could say. There were four lines on his stomach with a similar dark mark around his waist like mine. I looked at his wrist and hand prints started to appear just like mine. Is this my fault? "Mai...," Monk said grabbing my hand, "What was your dream about?" I felt the guys were near the door so I motioned for the girls and Monk to follow me to the window. They probably knew why I did that so they followed me. I whispered quietly enough that they could still hear me and told them what I dreamed.

After telling them we went back outside to the front. When we opened the door we saw the guys trying to listen in on the conversation. The girls shook their heads as we all went to sit down on the couches. John catches me and the girls up on the case he wanted us to investigate. Seeing real life pictures of the red eyes and dark figure sent chills down my spine.

After we settled on a time and date we are going to the place, we left SNR to go home. Monk told John and Yasu to call him when they get home so he can explain what happened. Right now I'm in bed while Monk was on the phone with John and Yasu explaining the things that happened in my office. I was still debating whether to sleep or not, until I fell asleep.

~5 days later at the camp grounds~

We finally made it to Camp Moonstone. The camp had a few people in it. Which was weird cause Yasu did some research before we came and it said this was a famous camp ground that is usually full. Monk, Yasu, Ayako, and I got out of the SNR van. When my foot touched the ground I felt a strange pulse go straight. "You okay Mai?" Yasu asked as he closed his door. "Yea, I'm okay," I replied as I completely got out of the car and closed my door. "If something happens tell us, okay?" Yasu said. I nodded as we both walked to the group.
