The Beginning

Himizu-chan: My first fic! Woot woot!

Ryouko: But what about our website?!?!

Himizu-chan: Don't worry, doing this will probably get more people to our website, if we ever post it... --()

Kitsune: Don't worry, we'll get the website up.

Kuwabara: That's what we're worried about.

(Himizu-chan, Ryouko, and Kitsune all hit Kuwabara with mallets)

Kuwabara: ... (Swirly eyes)

Himizu-chan: Enjoy my fic!

A/N: This isn't the funniest chapter, but it gets better. I promise!

Rating: Rated PG for minor language. There is a bit of Mary Sue in this, including glomping and a bit of insane talk that is probably Mary Sue, depending on how strict your viewpoint is. We leave it in your hands to judge for yourselves. But we probably won't change the rating, although you're welcome to tell us what you think.

Chapter 1

Ryouko was walking down the street, not knowing where she was going. Her feet seemed to know though, relentlessly pursuing a fixed course. They carried her to a park. In a deserted glade, she came across a strange sight. It was a midget wearing a Barney costume. The person's back was to her, but she could see that whoever this person was, he was cracked. He was cradling an apple as though it were a baby (--???), rocking it gently and singing, "I love you, you love me, we're a happy family…" Then he turned towards her. It was (gasp) HIEI?!?!?!?!?!?! He smiled at her, a gentle un-Hiei smile. Now he was reaching towards her… Ryouko screamed, a single piercing note that nearly shattered all windows within a thirty-mile radius.

Ryouko sat up straight, panting and sweating. That dream had been so vivid, so life-like… Taking a deep breath, she tried talking to herself, reassuring herself.

"Kitsune and Himizu would laugh if they saw me. Even Himizu, although she's had some weird dreams before. But maybe telling them will make me see how silly I'm being." So Ryouko got ready for school, eager to go because it was Friday and she could spend all weekend typing.

At school, Himizu was plainly high. She was bouncing around from one foot to the other, talking rapidly to Kitsune who was trying to look as though she were interested, and seek an escape route at the same time. She spotted Ryouko and waved.

"Hi Ryouko! What's happening?"

Before Ryouko could reply, Himizu interrupted. "Did you guys realize that it's Friday the 13th?!? Friday the 13th is the best day ever!!!!! That's when the werewolves and vampires come out!!!! And it's a full moon tonight!!! They're definitely coming out!!!!!! I'll finally get to see a werewolf!!!!!! Maybe one's been stalking me, just waiting for a Friday the 13th so that it can attack me and make me one of them!!!!! Oooohhhhhh, I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"You want to be a werewolf?" asked Ryouko incredulously.

"Himizu would want to be a dandelion if she took it into her head," muttered Kitsune darkly. Ryouko nodded agreement. Then she told them about her dream. The two girls stared wide-eyed. Kitsune looked especially shocked.

"I had a dream last night too. In my dream, Kurama was in a ballet with hundreds of dancing flowers. All the flowers danced around him and Kurama was dressed like a smiling daisy and wearing a tutu, a sparkly pink one. Then he smiled at me and reached out towards me, just like Hiei did to you. What do you think it means?"

"Dunno. Did you have a dream, Himizu?" Ryouko questioned.

Himizu scowled. "Unfortunately for me."

"Why? Who'd you dream of?"

"I'd rather not say." Himizu coughed politely and turned away.

"Awww come on. We told you ours. Please Himizu????"

"That's not how you do it, Kitsune. THIS is how you do it." Ryouko glared at Himizu. "Tell us about your dream now, or I'll go to your house and delete all your Rick Nash pictures."

Himizu went white. "Y-you wouldn't! You couldn't! You wouldn't dare."

"Watch me."

"NO!! I'll tell you! You win. I dreamed… about…"

"Yessssss…."

Himizu buried her head in her hands and muttered, "Kuwabara."

There was stunned silence for all of two seconds. Then Ryouko and Kitsune burst into hysterical laughter. They couldn't speak, they couldn't move, they could just barely breathe. Their laughter was threatening to choke them and tears rolled down their faces. Himizu wondered if they would wet their pants. It would certainly give her a laugh. But they didn't. Wiping away tears of mirth, they looked at her expectantly. Himizu gazed back.

"What?"

"What happened???" the girls cried together.

Himizu grinned. "He was with the Teletubies. They were all dancing and singing together. Kuwabara was hugging them and randomly crying out they he loved Tinkie-winkie or Dipsy or Lala or Po. And then he reached out towards me. I punched his face and screamed my head off. My parents weren't to pleased, let me tell you."

Ryouko and Kitsune began to laugh again. Himizu even joined in after a moment. Then Kitsune stopped laughing.

"Do you think it's an omen?"

That silenced the other two. Himizu frowned.

"An omen of what? That the YYH cast, Barney, the Teletubies, and a bunch of dancing flowers are going to come and torture us by making us vomit?"

"I don't know. I hope not." Kitsune looked worried.

"Got any better ideas? It is Friday the 13th after all."

"We've heard," muttered Ryouko dryly.

"Shut up. Stranger things have happened."

"And I'm blowed if I know what they are," Ryouko continued muttering.

Himizu sighed. "You know what? I know exactly what you mean. That's how I feel too."

"Let's try to forget about it. It's probably nothing." Even to her own ears, Kitsune's words sounded hollow. A full moon seemed to wink at the three girls as they scampered to class as the bell rang.

"I'll come over at about 12:00 tomorrow, okay?"

"I'll do the same! If that's okay by you, Ryouko. It is your house."

"That's fine. I'll be ready. Will your mom drive you, Kitsune?"

"Of course. Do you want a ride, Himizu?"

"No thanks. I'll ride my bike. That's the only exercise I do now that it's almost summer."

"Okay, see you guys tomorrow."

"Bye!"

The three girls went their separate ways. All of them failed to notice the blood-red moon that shone above their heads.

Himizu stretched, yawned leisurely, and strolled downstairs. The realization that she had only five minutes to make the eight-minute bike ride to Ryouko's set her moving. She slipped on a t-shirt, jean shorts, and flip-flops, plus a helmet, and soon she was pushing her bike out onto the driveway. As she got ready to kick off, a rustling from a nearby tree made her start. Glancing up, she saw someone sitting in the tree next to her. The figure was very short, had spiked hair, and was dressed all in black. Himizu knew who it was, and fervently hoped this was another bizarre dream. She decided to speak.

"My dad's going to be mad if you mess up that tree by breaking the branches or knocking off the leaves. So get out."

"Make me," Hiei growled, glaring down at her.

"Oh, I'll make you all right!" cried Himizu. With a bound, she was next to the tree and twanging the branch Hiei was sitting on, catapulting him into the air. She was about to ride away when she heard a loud obnoxious voice nearby.

"What did you do that for?"

"Because he was ticking me off!" Himizu snapped. She was hot and becoming very peeved. The sight of Kuwabara, the owner of the voice, striding around the corner only increased this peevishness. "Oh brother. Not the ugly, brainless, Teletubie-loving freak with the horrific hair."

"WHAT!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!" cried Kuwabara. "I'll show you!" He pulled out his spirit sword with a yell.

"Back off, ningen. The girl's mine to kill."

"Oh good grief," muttered Himizu. "This is not what I need this morning. The shrimp is back."

Hiei jumped forward, but was blocked by Kuwabara. "I'm the one that gets to kill the girl!"

"No, I am!"

"No, I am!"

"No, I am!"

"No, I am!"

"No, I am!"

As they argued, Himizu saw her chance, jumped on her bike, and fled. She was all the way down the street before either one realized she was gone. Hiei smiled.

"You can have her, Kuwabara. If you can catch her." And he was gone in a blur of black. Kuwabara started to run, screaming,

"UNFAIR!!!!! CHEATER!!!!!! COME BACK HERE, MIDGIT FIRE-DEMON!!!!!!!!!"

Himizu-chan: Hope you liked it! I'd like five reviews before I update, with three of them being positive, please. I will update soon! (Hopes readers won't hurt her...)
