As promised to all of you reading my Yugioh fics. A new story-I said it wasn't a Yugioh- this is a story I've been playing around with- currently I'm on three variations. This one will make number 4- any way, this is a simple story revealing a little of a certain redheaded youko's past. –warning I will use some Japanese in this story but I will try to put the translations in the first half.

Hiei- you're not involving me in this version are you?

Me- now why would I do that? This is Kurama's fic.

Hiei- so I'm not important enough to get a fic?

Me- I didn't say that. You'll get one. I promise.

Kurama- yeah relax Hiei. I won't let her forget you (wraps his arms around Eagle who immediately turns to mush. Hiei eyes him wearily)

Hiei-(knocks Kurama in the head) will you stop that!

Kurama lets go of Eagle who falls to the floor.

Me- Hiei! You baka. Now you won't get a fic.

Hiei- I'm sorry. Please get on with this one.

Me- fine you do the disclaimer

Hiei- she owns nothing except for her own characters of course.

Japanese

Baka- stupid

Hai- yes

Kitsune- fox

Youko- demon

Chapter 1- a strange girl appears

            It was a beautiful fall day. The leaves were starting to change and a red headed boy sat under an oak tree that grew in a park just outside of genkai's temple. The sun was setting and his hair had a golden glow to it. A breeze picked up and toyed with his hair. Not long ago a friend of his left him under the tree. Watching his black hair rush away from him. The boy had promised he would be back soon, but that was two months ago. The red head wondered if his friend would come back. His other friends were nice but they couldn't offer the support he needed like his best friend.

"Get over it Kurama. He's not coming back." The red head told him as he stood and wiped of the dirt "he would have been back by now."

The breeze picked up some more and a few leaves fell from the oak tree. They floated to the ground and landed at Kurama's feet. Kurama picked up his bag. His pinkish-red suit rustled as the breeze blew by again. A few more leaves fell. He looked up at the tree his big green eyes watching the giant tree. Searching for his friend.

"Hiei why haven't you returned?" he yelled before quickly turning to leave.

A leaf blew from the tree and floated over in front of Kurama. The leaf hovered before it flew back over his shoulder. Kurama turned; confused he walked back toward the tree the breeze picked up again

"Kurama where are you?" it was a soft voice but it was audible. It followed the breeze as it went.

Kurama looked at the tree again this time a few leaves drifted down and hovered in front of him. The slowly started to make a circle as the twirled around. The leaves began to speed up until they became blurs. The leaves had made a big circle that stretched to the ground.

As the leaves twirled, a picture began to form.  A girl laid under the tree the ground aground her was bloody. Her clothes looked like they had been torn.

"Kurama I can't see you." The girl cried as she winced in pain. She gripped her side trying to ease the pain.

As Kurama watched, he came into view in the picture. He lifted the girl and pulled her close.

"I'm here." He reassured her.

The girl smiled as she winced again. "It was nice to see you again. To bad it had to end like this." The girl said as a few tears escaped down her cheeks.

"I'm sorry I didn't return to you like I promised." He began. The girl raised her hand and placed it on his mouth. Her hand fell from his mouth. Kurama leaned over and planted a kiss on her lips. She smiled

"I love you, you baka kitsune…" the girl started as she began to cough. "Don't forget me." As she finished her hand went limp and blood fell from her mouth.

The vision ended and Kurama blinked. He turned from the tree with questions racing through his mind.

'Who was that? How did she know my youko name? What happened? Was that the future?"  He asked himself as he walked towards the entrance of the park. As he passed under another oak tree, something fell and hit him on the head.

He looked up and jumped back as a head popped out of the leaves.

"Sorry I guess it slipped out of my fingers." The head remarked as she smiled. Her brown hair circled her face, her blue eyes dancing. She lost her grip on the branch and began to fall out of the tree.

Okay that's the end of this chapter. I left you on a cliff but maybe that'll bring you back to read more of the story. Like I said, I've written this story several times and this is the best of all of them. This isn't a very long story so I won't update every time I update my other stories- generally every month- leave good reviews and I'll let you know when I update. Flames will not be tolerated.

Hiei- I think they get your point.

Me- I'm still mad at you.

Hiei- I said I'm sorry what more do you want?

Me- -_-……: ) you can give Kuwabara a kiss.

Hiei- what?!

Me- you heard me. No kiss no fic.

Hiei turns to Kuwabara. He pulls the big redhead down to his height and plants a kiss on his lips.

Me- 0-0 i can't believe you did that.

Kurama- he takes all challenges serious.

Me- any way read and review. I'll see you next time I update.
