Takigawa swayed a moment before he regained his balance. He must have been out of it; the boy had come out of nowhere.
He rubbed the back of his neck and said, “Hey, it’s no problem; I should have been paying more attention. What’s with the map? You lost?”
Lin ignored the Monk and faced Gene. “Why didn’t you seed with him?!”
Gene winced. “I tried! I couldn’t connect with him. We don’t even have the telepathic connection…it was probably shut down or something when I had the accident.”
“Keep him breathing and watch his heart rate. I’ll call the professors, I’m sure they will be on the next flight out,” Lin ordered.
Gene nodded, worried for his brother. Lin grabbed his office phone and dialed the familiar number. He didn’t care if the Monk and Mai were in the room. The secret wouldn’t be much of a secret much longer.
“Professor Davis? I suggest that you and Luella fly to Japan on the next flight out,” Lin said, “….Yes Noll lost control. We will be taking him to the hospital….but there is more…..yes. Prepare yourself….Gene is alive.”
“Is someone going to explain what’s going on here?!”
Gene glanced at him. “My brother used PK without me properly seeding with him. His body can’t handle it like that.”
He looked at Naru, worried. Mai bit her lip and sat down next to him. She hesitantly reached a hand to touch Naru’s hair but stopped. Gene smiled.
“It’s alright. You can touch him. It won’t upset him…” he didn’t say it, but he had a suspicion his brother liked this girl.
“Seeding?” He shook his head, confused. “Is he going to be okay? The ambulance should be here soon, but…”
Send a ♒ and I will generate a number for what my muse will say to yours!
9. “Are you bleeding?!”
Takigawa grimaced as he pressed the damp washcloth to his head and forced a painful smile. “Don’t worry, little lady, it’s just a scratch.”
Luckily, Mai was not bleeding, for which she was grateful, but her body ached after the torment it had toke while she had done her best to protect an unconscious John during the entities last attack. But Monk, his face was bloodied, and one arm was covered in blood from his shoulder wound.
“Monk! That’s more then just a scratch! Please let Ayako take a look at you.”
“I’m fine,” he argued. “Besides, if I let my guard down for even a second, I might lose the barrier. Take care of John; I’m fine right now.” He could at least make it until the sun came up, he thought.
Mai gave a hesitant nod, worried and unsure how much more Monk could take.
“Okay…”
It was taking all his concentration to keep up the barrier, but he couldn’t let Mai know how much energy this was taking. They were all counting on him; he couldn’t let them down. John was unconscious and who knew what would happen if…
He focused his thoughts. He could feel the spirits gathering again.
“John?” Mai called, kneeling in front of the unconscious Aussie. “Oh John, please, please be alright!”
He knew he should be strong, but the spirits were trying to break the barrier. He didn’t know if he could keep it up.
“Mai—” He stopped. She needed to look after John.
He had no choice; he had to do it. He chanted, trying to keep the spirits out, but he could feel his energy draining. He couldn’t go on much more.
Mai turned to face Monk, her bewildered gaze searching his face.
“Wha-" However, she was cut off by a loud crash as a nearby window shattered and spirits began pouring in.
"Monk! Look out!” She cried, bracing both herself and an unconscious John for impact.
“Mai!” He shouted. “Get back!” He chanted and poured as much of his energy as he could into his work but there were too many spirits. He knew Ayako was doing her best, but there was nothing he could do. He was exhausted.
The last thing he remembered before passing out was someone screaming.
“Monk? Monk!” A hard slap on the cheek accompanied Mai’s words. “Please, please wake up Monk!" She raised a hand to slap him again, but he grabbed her wrist to stop her.
"Monk?! Are you alright? I was afraid you were… dead! T-the spirits are g-gone, but I don’t know how or why.. they just slowly- Oh gosh I’m so relieved that you’re alright!”
"I’m fine,” he assured her as he struggled to sit up. “Though my ego might take a hit from this. How is everyone else?”
“John finally woke up, but he seems to be in a lot of pain. Luckily Ayako is tending to his wounds as we speak.”
Mai pointed in the Miko and Priest’s directions before continuing.
“Gosh! He took quite the hit.. He’s got a deep gash running down his left side.. But everyone else seems to be doing alright.”
Takigawa sighed.
“I’m glad no one was hurt. I’m sorry – it’s my fault, Mai. I couldn’t hold them off.”
“Ready as I’ll ever be!” He watched his feet and he knew he was too rigid; he just wanted to make sure he didn’t step on any toes.
“ just relax ! i’ll guide and I’ll make you look good” she pressed herself deeper to lead him easily following the music,her leg when up his leg and she guided his hand from her waist to her leg caressing her body.
“I’m counting on you,” he told her and tried to do as she said: relax. He wondered if he was imagining the disparaging looks from the other dancers. “Is that where I should be?”
“yes, ignore everyone. ok so even if I’m guiding you, you are leading. You begin with the left foot, the follow with the right, and the lead steps are "heel leads" .That is, the heel of the foot comes down first, not the toe. This dance is all about the chemistry between us. The dancers are supposed to be close” she guided him, making simple moves ,he was actually a fast learner and they were dancing well by the end of the 1st song.
They took a seat after that, she saw him looking at the couples ” so what do you think? they are more advance you don’t have to dance like that ” she said waving the waiter.
“I like it,” he admitted. “I have to say, I didn’t think this was the kind of dancing you meant… but it’s fun. So how badly did I do out there?”
She laughed seen his expression while taking a seat, she knew he was lying when he was looking at the couples in the dance floor.
“ yeah right! may be you can tech me some new moves” she teased
“Uh, right,” he stammered. I think it’s going to be the other way around…
“ ok , ready to tango?” she said while taking him to the dance floor. She grabbed his hand and stood very close to him, starting to guide him to the beat of the music. She felt his body heat and her body started to get fired up. it felt so right been this close to him.
“Ready as I’ll ever be!” He watched his feet and he knew he was too rigid; he just wanted to make sure he didn’t step on any toes.
“ just relax ! i’ll guide and I’ll make you look good” she pressed herself deeper to lead him easily following the music,her leg when up his leg and she guided his hand from her waist to her leg caressing her body.
“I’m counting on you,” he told her and tried to do as she said: relax. He wondered if he was imagining the disparaging looks from the other dancers. “Is that where I should be?”
“ ok then lets go!” they left and she guided him to what it looked like a restaurant , when they entered she grabbed his hand leading him up to a elevator. She smiled and said “ i hope you know how to dance” the elevator opened and they could hear the latin music playing.
And employee gestured to a table close to the dance floor.
“Dance? What do you take me for? Of course I can dance.”
That was a lie if he’d ever told one. Sure, he could dance. But it was like dancing at a club, and he was pretty sure that was not the kind of dancing she had in mind.
She laughed seen his expression while taking a seat, she knew he was lying when he was looking at the couples in the dance floor.
