Chapter 4: A New Case

Naru and Mai walked out of Naru's office. Naru's face cold and static while Mai's was red and flustered. Mai was twitching and fiddling with her hands.


Standing in the middle of the room was a tall thin woman. She looked way to thin to be healthy. Her cheeks were sunken in and her dark eyes dull. Her long dark hair hair fell limp and dull down her back. Her lips were pressed into a thin line with sorry marks appearing across her face. Her eyes darted across the room refusing to stay on one thing.


"What exactly is it that you need?" Naru questioned. His eyes now emotionless and all of his movement professional. "And Mai would you mind getting us some tea?" As he spoke his eyes stayed trained on the ill looking woman.


Mai hurried to the kitchenette and began on the tea. She then rushed towards her desk to grab her clipboard, pen, and some paper and she placed them on the coffee table in the sitting room.


Once she had done the task she rushed towards the whistling kettle to finish off making the tea. While Mah was doing all this Naru had the woman sit down and introduce herself.


"My name is Momoko and w-well I've been having strange occurrences in my manor. My h-husband is away frequently leaving me alone to care for our 7 year old son, Damon. B-but after Damon's 6th birthday he had been acting weird. He'll have violent fits. He even harmed his last nanny and the one before quit out of fear for my son. I-I don't know what to do. Lately, he had even been speaking in strange languages that sound like gibberish. He's been talking to himself in his room but it's strange. I've heard a voice reply to him as well and when I ask he says it Damien. Things will break randomly a-and last night I found all the crosses hanging upside down. After that I had to come get help, which lead me here. Please help I fear for my son's safety." Momoko was shaking by the end of her story. John got up and held her while looking at Naru, waiting to see what her where to be.


After the woman told Naru her story, his eyes softened. "We'll take the job." With those final words he walked off into his office, likely for research.
