Later on Yusuke decided to take a bath. Since he didn't have time
to pack any clothing or anything, I loaned him a set of night clothes. Hiei had
taken to glaring at the door, still angry at the person behind it.
"Hiei, let's face it," I sighed in exasperation.
"You're not going to glare a hole through the wall as hard as you
try."
"Whatever," Hiei snorted as he continued to glare at the
door. He turned his gaze towards me. "What are you going to do about your
ningen father?"
"I don't know," I said thoughtfully, swishing my tail
back and forth. My golden eyes stared towards the ceiling. "Of course I
know I can't kill him because of that stupid rule. I could make it look like an
accident, but everything would end up to me."
"You could get some human to do your dirty work," Hiei
shrugged. His brown eyes glanced over towards the window, where he shut the
blinds abruptly.
"I don't know many humans who are willing to do it," I
said after thinking who I could ask. Then again, it wouldn't be right, because
I still would be behind it though indirectly. On the other hand, if I asked a
human to stayund und or stick around that human, he would have to defend
himself and me so it wouldn't count against me. Not to mention, he could say he
was using self-defense. "I think Kuwabara or Yusuke might do it."
"The ape?" Hiei snorted with
slight amusement in his voice. "I wouldn't count on him."
"Is it because he likes your sister?" I asked him. There
must be that twinkle of mischief in my eye, because he scowled at me.
"Fox, don't even go there." He crossed his arm and
glared at me before turning towards my bathroom door.
Finally the bathroom door opened and Yusuke emerged with his hair
wet and my night clothes on him. "So what were guys talking about?"
"This and that," I teased him.
Yusuke raised a brow but said nothing. He took a seat at my desk
chair while I had my bed. "That's real helpful. Do either of you know how
to calm an angry woman down?"
"Does it look like I know?" Hiei growled. He sat in the
darkest corner of my room.
"Don't look at me," I said with my hands up in defeat.
"I have yet to anger any woman."
"You've never made any woman angry?" Yusuke gasped out
loud. His jaw literally hit the ground in shock.
"Not to my knowledge," I admitted sheepishly. "If I
so happen to offend the opposite gender, then it must have been while I was
really young."
Yusuke went into panic mode; well, it wasn't life or death
situation type. "I think I'm in for it. She's not the type of person who
you can send flowers to and ask her to forget about it."
"I suggest sitting down and having an adult conversation with
her," I suggested; only to receive a blank stare.
"Meaning don't yell, accuse her of something, or
bring up the past. Above all, listen to what she has
to say without interruptions unless she doesn't allow you to speak."
"I suppose that would work," Yusuke said, scratching the
side of his head. "Well if it doesn't, then I can always buy her
something. What do girls like?"
"Idiot," Hiei muttered under his breath.
"Flowers, chocolates unless they're on a diet, plushies,
dolls, make-up, picnics, clothing, or something romantic if you're dating
her," I ticked off the list. I received shocked looks from the both of
them this time. "What?"
"How do you know these things?" Hiei voiced their
question before Yusuke could ask.
"I heard girls talking in the hallways," I smiled. Their
facial expressions returned back to normal. "The female population in my
school tends to talk. I can overhear them with my sensitive hearing. Some of
their discussions, I would rather not hear such as their womanly
problems."
Yusuke snickered at my unfortunate circumstances. "In these
times, I'm glad I don't have sensitive hearing."
"Humans," Hiei muttered under his breath again.
"Hiei, be nice," I reprimanded him. "You two are in
the same boat so why not a truce for now, hm?" I glanced between the two
of them.
"I suppose I could if he quits calling me an idiot or
something to that degree," Yusuke made his demand. He leaned into the back
rest.
"As long as I don't have to be all touchy, I don't mind
sharing the same space as him," Hiei also voiced his demand.
"Now that we cleared it up, why don't we decide on the
sleeping arrangement," I suggested to my two companions and team mates.
"I'm fine right here, fox,"
Hiei grumbled. He shifted around before he found a comfortable position against
the wall."
"What about you, Yusuke?" I turned my attention towards
the black haired human.
"The floor is fine with me," Yusuke said as though he
was trying to convince me. "Besides, I'm used to it and this is your
house. I wouldn't want to kick you out of your own bed." He paused for a
second to look around my room. "You can pull off the covers and I'll sleep
on that."
"Are you sure about it?" I wanted a confirmation to his
answer.
"Of course," Yusuke urged me to use my bed. "It
wouldn't seem right if I did."
"Would you quit arguing on who's going to take the bed?"
Hiei asked rather pissed off. "Kurama, you sleep on the bed and Urameshi
gets the floor. End of story."
"Of course," I said standing up. I made my way to the
door, because I needed to get the extra sheets for Yusuke to use. As soon as I
opened the door, I found Yusuke standing next to me.
"What are you going out for?"
"I'm going to retrieve our spare blankets," I replied
with an amused smile. It was nice to know he cared. For some reason, I thought
he thought I was going outside the house. Come on, I wasn't that stupid. Don't
even respond.
"I'll go help you," Yusuke said. He fell in step behind
me. "You have a nice house."
"Thanks," I said, trying not to blush at his complement.
He really did care, at least to the extent of friendship or was it something
more? Nah, it was my imagination playing tricks on me. I reached into one of
the cabinets and pulled out a thin blanket for him, figuring he wouldn't need a
thick one or multiple one.
"Is there anything else I can help you with?" Yusuke
asked me.
"I don't think there's anything at the moment," I said
thoughtfully. "If there's anything, I'll inform you. Thank you."
"It's nothing," Yusuke said finding his feet more
interesting. He scuffed the floor a few times. "Besides, we're crashing at
your place. I would feel guilty if I didn't help you in any way. After all, you
didn't expect us to be dropped on you. Besides, I don't think Hiei is the type
of person to show his gratitude."
I laughed a bit. "I don't think so either. He isn't the
emotional type as you have noticed."
"Let's go before Hiei decides to search for with that third
eye of his," Yusuke laughed with me. We both entered my room to find the
object of our discussion slowly drifting asleep. "You know he looks
peaceful when he sleeps." He whispered his comment very softly near my
ear.
I nodded my head in agreement. At least this was one of the places
Hiei felt comfortable to let down his guard. I quietly sneaked across my room
and pulled off the covers so that Yusuke could sleep on them.
As soon as I handed it to him, Yusuke arranged it on the floor in
the middle of my room. He lay on his makeshift bed and pulled the blanket over
him. I soon followed suit except on my bed. My first instinct was to curl up
into a small ball; however when I wake up, I will most likely end up in that
position.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~The Next
Day~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Just like I predicted, I somehow curled myself into a ball during
the night. Surprisingly the other two were awake, but they only whispered to
each other. To my shock, they were getting along and having an actual
conversation without making rude or sarcastic towards each other. That was it.
I must be dreaming.
"No, you're not dreaming," Hiei stated rather bluntly.
How on earth did he know I was thinking that unless he was reading my mind
again? "And I'm not reading your mind either. Your body language told
everything."
"Oh," I managed to say. I turned over to Yusuke, who
shrugged his shoulders in response. "Why didn't anyone wake me?"
"You were fast asleep," Yusuke answered nervously while
scratching the back of his head and sweat dropping. "We didn't feel like
disturbing you."
Hiei gave me the look. He stated that we were going to talk about
it later when we have no human company. Also his body language indicated that
he wanted to talk to me alone.
"How about breakfast?" I
suggested to my two guests. I began sniffing the air to smell what Shiori was
cooking for breakfast.
"You'd know I'll eat almost anything edible," Yusuke
spoke up with his sheepish grin. "It has to be better than my mom's cooking."
"Urameshi, frozen dinners are better than your mom's
cooking," Hiei commented on the culinary skills of Yusuke's mother.
"You know I'm not going to argue with you on that,"
Yusuke sighed wistfully. "It's a miracle I lived this long."
"Maybe you have a strong stomach or an immunity to
poison?" Hiei said off handedly.
Yusuke started laughing at the fire youkai's joke. "You know
I'd like to think the latter. If I can survive my mom's cooking, then I think I
can survive being poisoned."
"One would theorize," Hiei continued their polite
conversation.
My golden eyes blink with confusion. This was the first time I saw
them acting �.. normal towards each other. "Are
you sure you two are okay?"
"Of course baka kitsune," Hiei scowled at me, though I
knew he was only annoyed. For Kuwabara, it wasn't hard for him to get Hiei very
angry at him. I knew it will take me some time for Hiei to become angry with
me. I remembered back to when I had helped Yusuke by taking the blow. Hiei
became angry at me, because I stole his death blow.
Yusuke was more than willing to give up part of his life so that I
could be with my human mother. I didn't know why he would sacrifice it, but
then he emotionally told me about his experience with his mother. He had died
before and was allowed to be brought back to life only to become a spirit
detective. That was history, as in over and done with.
The human male tried to give me those innocent eyes as if saying `Who me?' "There's nothing wrong with us."
My eyes became slits before I changed back to my human form.
"Wouldn't want to keep her waiting?" I asked as I walked out of the
room.
Hiei was pretty much used to my sudden change in moods. He was my
partner after all, not in that way! A confused Yusuke trailed behind the two of
us, wondering what was going on or at least I suspected to be the case.
Upon entering the kitchen, we found my human mother finish cooking
the morning meal. I took a seat and gestured for the others to take a seat.
Yusuke didn't hesitate in sitting down while Hiei edged towards a chair as if
it was going to attack him directly. Shiori seemed to be amused by the short
youkai's actions.
"Hiei, the chair is not going to poison, kill, or maim
you," I sighed in exasperation. "And no it will not strangle, crush,
or cause any bodily harm."
Hiei snorted indignantly before taking a seat. Seriously, he
didn't trust anything or anyone. Well, he admitted to me there was a very, I
meant very few people he could trust, though I don't know to what extent.
"Did you sleep well?" Shiori asked us as a group. She
had turned off the stove and was ladling the hash browns onto a plate on the
table.
"Yes, thank you ma'am," Yusuke was surprisingly polite.
He started to help himself to the food after the cook had taken the last seat
for herself.
"Hn," was Hiei's usual response, but it didn't upset
her. Probably it was a mom thing or something. Humans were such complicated
creatures at times.
Breakfast went surprisingly well, considering who we had at the
table. Yusuke was polite enough not to stuff his face and had good table
manners. He made a few positive comments about her cooking to make her blush a
couple times. Hiei wasn't exactly the conversationalist. However, if either one
of us left out or misinterpreted a fact, he immediately corrected. Shiori was
very curious as to our many adventures, which left me absent from my home.
While we told her about the dark tournament, she became very worried and
literally forbade me from participating in another one. I assured her this time
it would be different, because I can transform into my youkai form at will.
Still it didn't reassure her. Afterwards, Yusuke insisted that he wash the
dishes as a way of thanking her for a good meal.
Later in the morning, we decided to take a walk in the park with
Hiei trailing behind us in the trees as usual. Of course, we had changed into
our day clothes long before then. Earlier I asked Yusuke if he had summer
classes or something, but he infd med me they didn't on Saturday.
"What do you want today?" I asked the other two.
"I don't know," Yusuke shrugged. "I suppose
pacifier breath might have a case for us, considering what happened
yesterday."
"What do you mean by that?" I asked, a bit worried
something happened.
"Hiei told me about your human father yesterday," Yusuke
explained. And I didn't hear them converse? It must have been while I was fast
asleep. Dang, I must have been really out cold if I didn't wake up while they
were talking. "Do you think he's working for someone like the Toguro
brothers?"
"I doubt the older brother would bother with weak
humans," Hiei spoke up, startling Yusuke who wasn't used to his habits.
"We can rule out the saint beasts unless someone resurrected them without
our knowledge."
"I think it is possible," Yusuke said thoughtfully after
getting over the shock. "I did revive granny, though I don't know why I
did in the first place."
"You miss her," I teased him before I stepped away.
However instead of swinging at me like some fire youkai he growled.
"Whatever," Yusuke grunted, sounding almost Hiei like.
"I suppose we can drop by Koenma's office," I suggested
to the others. "Maybe we should pick up Kuwabara along the way."
"That big ape?" Hiei snorted
and glared at Yusuke's back. "Why would you want him along?"
"He could be a distraction for our enemies?" Yusuke said
off handedly. "He does have a high spirit
awareness."
"Fine then as long as he stays out of my way," Hiei went
back to hopping in the trees.
"I had wanted to ask you a few questions," I said,
walking besides Yusuke. He turned his attention to me. "Since
when did you and Hiei start getting along? No offense, but you two
seemed to be either at each other's throats or ignoring each other."
"We had a long talk before you woke up," Yusuke answered
with his usual grin. "No, it wasn't the emotional types. You know Hiei
doesn't like those, but we were discussing our situation. I mean there has to
be someone pulling the strings. Isn't there?"
"I would think so," I said thoughtfully. "My human
father could not have known my past life; let alone my human one. He wasn't
around if you were wondering."
"My pops was never around," Yusuke said, very annoyed.
"He left me with an alcoholic mom."
"Which would explain some of your behavior," I observed.
He grunted in reply but said nothing else. "Speaking on which, where does
Kuwabara live?"
"He lives not far from here," Yusuke informed us as he
turned the corner and walked down the sidewalk. "It's going to be hard to
get him away from here without something good, especially if Hiei's coming. No
offense!"
"I know those two don't get along," I said wistfully.
Sometimes, I wish they did a little more than barely tolerate each other's
presence. No, I wasn't going to force them to be friends, but I wanted them to
treat each other like team mates.
"Assuming Koenma doesn't have the information we seek, then
where do you propose we go?" Hiei asked after jumping down. He walked on
the other side of me, away from Yusuke.
"Maybe to Genkai's," I suggested. It would be an ideal
place to train without being noticed. Plus my human father wouldn't think of
looking for me there. Then again, we have to protect my human mother from
danger. She will be a vulnerable target on her own. "But first we go back
to my place and get my mother. She will not be safe within the walls of our home."
"Human weakness," Hiei grunted, causing the both of us
to glare at him.
"Yeah, the first thing we need to do is make sure your mother
is safe," Yusuke confirmed my decision. "Then we go meet up with
granny. Why do you want to head to her place?"
"It kills three birds with one stone," I replied with my
knowing smirk. My two companions gave me confused looks. "First of all, we
know Kuwabara will come once he knows Yukina is at Genkai's place and that it
is one of our destinations. Second, hardly anyone goes in the general area so
it would be a good place to hide my mother until we can find a decent place.
Third, it provides a place for us to train without any distraction."
"I never thought about it that way," Yusuke blinked his
eyes.
"Since when did you ever think?" Hiei said
sarcastically.
"I bet you never thought of it in the first place,"
Yusuke replied with equal sarcasm. The remark made Hiei look everywhere but at
us. "Thought so." After walking a few
minutes, Yusuke stopped in front a door and knocked on it.
"Hold on Urameshi, I'm coming," a familiar voice called
out. If you haven't wondered, he finally was able to distinguish our energy
signatures. The door was yanked open and his face appeared from behind it. His
beady eyes went over to the two of us. "You brought them?"
"They are our friends," Yusuke said; then he glanced
over at Hiei. "One of them at least. We were
heading towards Koenma's, because we have a case."
"Why should I bother?" Kuwabara snorted.
"I thought you were bored this summer," Yusuke said,
completely caught off guard.
"Well, sis decided to stay for awhile," Kuwabara said,
motioning back into the house. "Besides, I need to take care of my little
kitten."
"We are going to head to my place and then Genkai's afterward,"
I said with my calm voice. "We'll tell Yukina you were busy�"
Before I could even finish the sentence, Kuwabara jumped in.
&;Why;Why didn't you say so? Of course I'll come!"
I glanced over to Yusuke giving him `I told you so' look. "In
that case, you might want to change into more suitable clothes." My eyes
surveyed his night wear, which consisted of kitten pajamas. He seriously was
obsessed with cats.
"Right," Kuwabara said, blushing
a bright shade of red. He immediately rushed back into his house to change into
something.
"Hey sis, I'm hanging out with my friends!" The other
red head called out to his sister.
"What time are you coming back?" A female voice called
from somewhere within the edifice.
"I don't know!"
"If you don't plan on being back for dinner, then at least
call!"
"Okay! Please watch over Eichikins (sp?)!"
"Fine!"
The tall human came bounding out in his daytime attire, apparently
very eager to meet with his future or current girlfriend. "So what are we
waiting for?"
"Idiot," Hiei mumbled under his breath, though no one
except me heard it.
I shook my head in frustration. Those two were going at each other
again. If only they would tolerate each other like Hiei did with Yusuke, but it
was different. At least Hiei had respect for Yusuke, which Kuwabara plainly did
not.
Hiei and I led the way while the other two of our party remained
in the back. Yusuke filled Kuwabara on our self-imposed mission and Kuwabara as
always seemed to grasp the general ideas of it, though I wasn't exactly how
sure he grasped the urgency of it. The fire youkai seemed to be deep in his own thoughts. It might involve one messenger of the
spirit world with blue hair and a perky personality to match.
As for me, my thoughts constantly went back onto the attack my
human father made on my mother. No doubt, she cannot be safe in our own house,
considering the fact there were youkai backing him up. I hardly can believe
that the youkai would involve ningen or humans, because we normally thought
them as inferiors, but then they did make good spies in the human world, where
most of us could not tread lightly.
A sudden surge of power caught my attention rather abruptly and
vanished without a trace, leaving the four of us confused. What was that and
how could it have so much power? That was a question for another day. My mind
wanted to reason that, but deep down inside, I knew it was tied into my
predicament.
"What was that?" Yusuke was the first of us to voice the
silent question lingering in our minds.
"I can not locate it with my third eye," Hiei scowled.
His third eye was in use as the headband that he normally wore over it was off.
"Caution dictates we must move swiftly and quietly before they know of our
plans."
"Agreed," I said hastily, not wanting an argument from
the other two. "We split up. Hiei and Yusuke will go ahead of us to
Genkai's. I'm sure there will be several youkai or ningen to intercept us and I
don't want to lead them where we are hiding my mother. Kuwabara and I will go
to my house."
"Hold on there, Kurama," Kuwabara said with uncertainty.
"How do you know if the surge of power was an enemy?"
"For once, the ape has a point," Hiei sarcastically
commented while crossing his arms over his chest. "You're becoming too
suspicious."
"Look who's talking," Yusuke snorted at the shortest
one. "But he does also have a point. We do not want a gang of youkai
tailing us back go grandma's evil boot camp. So we'll just have to split up and
clear the path."
"Why on earth would you pair Urameshi up with Hiei?"
Kuwabara inquired as if the answer was blatantly obvious.
"Because we need one ningen and one youkai to be in each
pair," I explained to the somewhat dense spirit detective. "You and
Hiei do not interact well, but he manages to tolerate Yusuke's presence so it
would seem prudent to pair them up. Plus, I have more patience with those
aren't as quick as others."
"What is that supposed to mean?" Kuwabara narrowed his
beady eyes at me.
"You can take as you like," I replied with my ever so
calm demeanor.
"We're wasting time here, fox," Hiei reminded me of our
urgent plan. "If you want to keep your ningen mother out of their hands,
we must act swiftly and decisively."
"Of course," I said before we parted our ways with
Kuwabara a few steps behind me.
As we heading in our separate directions, I wondered what was that
mysterious power surge was and if there were any connections it had with the
youkai backing up my ningen father.
Hopefully, I will find out without losing my mother. Otherwise,
someone will pay dearly.
