Sicily Urameshi
Girl on the run
It was a quiet Saturday morning. No adults could be seen in this quaint little two-story home. There in one of the upstairs bedrooms was a small girl. She lay on her stomach, feet away from the ground and criss-crossed. One window was open, letting in the May sun and slight breeze. The girl, laying on the floor, rocking her feet back and forth, seemed to be reading a rather large text book, no doubt for school. Next to the girl was a small glass of water with a bendable drinking straw sticking up. This girl had beautiful, long black hair, that was let down on this day. She eventually got annoyed of this textbook's wording and slammed it shut. Her hair too was annoying her, so she took a rubber band from her wrist and put it up in a loose ponytail. She grabbed a nearby pillow and placed it where her head was. She then lay on her back gazing at the ceiling. This soon became rather in comfortable so the girl turned to her side. She now was facing her bed. It was tall and had many messy covers going in and out each way. Next to this "unruly" bed, there was a small oak desk, used as a nightstand along with an ordinary computer desk. There were a multiple number of pictures on this desk and one unparticular interested this tired girl. She got up from her spot and sat on her bed. Looking around as if to see if anyone was looking, she grabbed the picture. She gazed at it, and tears started to swell up in her eyes. She shook her head and thought to herself, "I am not going to get emotional, now." She then placed it down and said aloud, "I think I'll visit Grandma Atsuko." The girl left the room and traveled through the empty house. When she got to the front door, she placed a hand written note on the door telling her parents she would be at her Grandmother's. She slipped on her black shoes and ran outside.
Outside, it was a beautiful day. Sun shining, birds chirping, grass green, and sky baby blue with three or four baby clouds. She ran towards her beaten up old rusty bike, that once was red. It had a large wicker basket in the front, which had recently been purchased. She pushed off and instead of going to her grandmother's she went toward town. "I bet grandma needs something to eat." On her way down the large steep hill, she was joined by a cat, which jumped right into the basket. "You want to help too, Ahakochi?" The kitten nodded. Its bell collar ringed as they sped down the town on the rusty bike. Soon the girl and kitten were walking on the sidewalk towards a shop called. "McCue's Market." The cat, now on the girl's shoulder, purred anxiously. They walked in and the girl picked up a navy blue basket to store groceries. 14 min. past and the girl was down to her last grocery when "Kerplunk!" A boy her age slammed into her, making her drop all of her groceries. "What's the big idea? You could have killed somebody!" The girl picked up the poor, frightened, Ahakochi. " I deeply apologize, Miss. I should have looked where I was going. Let me help you." Soon the two were picking up all the fallen groceries. "I'll do anything to make it up to you. I know!" The boy grabbed a mouse catnip toy from the ground and said, "On me!" "Thank-you." She took a closer look at this troublesome boy. He had light brown messy hair, much like her teacher's, Mr. Ikashi. He also had very pretty blue eyes and a beautiful smile. She blushed and her brown eyes met his silvery blue ones. She shook her head and glanced at her watch. "I gotta get going." He walked with her to the cash register and paid for the cat toy. She used her student ID and got a 5.00 discount. The boy caught a glimpse of the ID. "Sicily Urameshi, huh? Are you related to the great Yusuke Urameshi?" "Hmmm? Oh! Yes, he is my father." She grabbed her grocery bags and left leaving the boy, mouth open, in shock. "I knew my uncle said they all had those brown eyes." "Now I can finally get to grandma's. I wonder how much that cat toy was?" She took out her receipt, which was not the smartest thing to do while riding a bike on a busy street. Ahakochi noticed this and was meowing in fright. "Ahhh!!!!!!!!!!" A car sped right in front of them, causing Sicily to lose control and fall on a nearby sidewalk. Her bike was crushed and Ahakochi was now glued to Sicily's head. All the groceries were scattered along the sidewalk next to them. "That's just great!" she picked up the groceries and slammed them into the bag angrily. When she was about to pick up her receipt a slight breeze blew it to a large oak tree a couple of blocks away. Sicily ran and picked it up. All of a sudden, "plunk!" A squirrel fell from the tree. "Ow! I have got to get used to this body. Oh! Sicily Urameshi, just the person I wanted to see." "Ahhh! A talking squirrel !!!!!!!!!!" Sicily ran and ran, but little did she know the squirrel was flying attached to Ahakochi.
"Finally, we made it!" The squirrel landed and hopped along to a windowsill. Sicily walked cautiously inside the small home. "Grandma Atsuko! I have come for a visit." Sicily slipped off her shoes and walked into a small cluttered dark room. There were tissues everywhere, including on the messy bed that reminded her of her own; and there were buckets of vomit in each corner. There in the middle of it all, half asleep in bed was Atsuko, sick, lonely, and of course tired. From the sickening bundle of tissues and messy blankets came a tired, annoyed and hoarse voice, "Sicily? Is that you?" "Yes Grandma Atsuko, its me, I just wanted to see how you were doing." "Where's my son?" "Ummm.. Sorry Grandma he had some business to take care of." "Oh! So he thinks his job is more important than his mother?! And after 12 hours of labor? I might just have to pay him a little visit!" Atsuko rose from the blankets storming with anger. She rolled up her pajama sleeves and punched a fist into her hand. Sicily ran up to her worried, "No! He cares, Dad is just busy, he still loves you Atsuko. Besides your sick, you can kick the crap out of him when you get better." She held her grandmother's hand to stop her. "Maybe you've got a point." And with that, Atsuko fell backwards into her monstrous bed. Sicily heaved a great sigh, "Are you up to some oatmeal and tea?" "Sure, oh and while your at it can you dome a favor and do some chores." "Sure thing, what kind of chores?" "Oh nothing big. There should be a list by the fridge."
Sicily walked up to the fridge, which was open about three centimeters. "Lets see" She picked up the list of "Household Chores" and read:
1.water plants
2.clean rooms to perfection
3. Feed birds
4. Paint fence
5. Dishes
6.Laundry
7. Call Yusuke about fixing phone
"So that's why she hasn't been calling lately," Sicily commented.
"Well first things first, I need to make her something to eat." She
walked to her bag and brought it to the kitchen counter. She reached in
and pulled out some herbal tea packets and a box of oatmeal. Sicily
jumped and dropped the food. Ahakochi was rubbing her leg. "Oh, I'm
sorry; I bet Kuwabara didn't feed you yet did he Kitty?" She reached out
into the bag and took out some cat food labeled, "Feline Frenzy" "good
thing you went with me, or I would have never bought you food." Sicily
grabbed a bowl from the cabinet and placed it on the floor. "Here ya go"
Sicily put some food in the dish along with some milk in a small saucer.
Then all of a sudden she saw the squirrel through the mirror next to the
stove. She walked to the windowsill and reached onto her pocket. "No hard
feelings?" she handed him an almond. "Of course not" Sicily twitched.
"You can talk!" But right before she grabbed Ahakochi to scare him off
she caught a glimpse of the squirrel's forehead. "JR? Who? What?" "The
squirrel rushed away nervously and jumped of the windowsill to a blue
bulldog; and was gone. "Get a hold of yourself Sicily. That squirrel
cannot talk!" She shook her head, and then hit her herself. "Of course
not!"
She walked back to the kitchen and started making the tea. "Here you go
Grandma Atsuko. Drink it slowly." "Thank-you so much Sicily. At least
someone cares." Sicily decided not to say anything because she heard the
teapot whistle. "I'll be right back" Finally Sicily returned and brought
a steaming bowl of oatmeal. "I'm going to work on those chores so if you
need anything, just tell Ahakochi." "The cat? Ok. Who's sick her or me?"
Sicily ran to the kitchen and grabbed the list. "I will start with the
phone business" she ran back to Atsuko and yelled, "Grandma, where's your
cell?" All of a sudden, she got hit in the head with a cell phone and was
running back to the Kitchen. "What is his number?" She dialed 710-9988
and waited for it to pick up. "Dad!"
"Sicily? What are you calling me for?" "I wouldn't have called if I knew
you were busy, but." "Yes?" "When are you going to fix grandma's phone?"
"I don't know. Your mother wants you back at 5:00 so you better be
there." "I will" "I love you sweet heart" "Ditto" "Bye Sicily" "Thanks a
lot Dad" Not! She hung up. "Hope he didn't here that. She grabbed a pen
from her pocket. Then she wrote too busy to care, next to Call Yusuke
about fixing phone. "What's next" she scanned the list "well I'll start
from the inside then work to the outside." She then began her endless
work cleaning all the rooms in the house, except of course Atsuko's room.
When she finally finished, she marked it off on the list and went to take
out the dishes.
"How many dishes does a person need?" She looked in the dishwasher and sighed. She then started putting them away. "Now I need to do all the outside crap" She worked and worked and worked, until the sun started to fade. She wiped the sweat off her face. "What time is it?" She looked at her watch "Holy Crap! 5:45! Mom's going to kill me!" She ran in the house "Grandma Atsuko I have to leave. I'll call you. Come on Ahakochi!" "Don't I get a hug?" "No time Grandma Atsuko, bye"
And with that, Sicily and Ahakochi ran for there soon to be threatened lives. "Why did I have to be so nice and do all that crap. Now dad and mom are going to kill me." Running as fast as she could Sicily soon caught a glimpse of a familiar car in the corner of her eye. "Sicily! What's rush?" "Kuwabara! No time to talk. Going to die if I don't get home. I can't believe I'm an hour late!" "Well I'd be happy to.Ahakochi?! Hey what's the big idea stealing my cat." Sicily ignored him and ran faster. "Hey I'm talking to you Little Urameshi!" He threw a Dictionary at her. "Hey! What's the big idea, Kuwabara! I didn't steal your cat! She followed me!" Sicily yelled in fury. "Oh. Well don't just run like that, hop in, your dead anyway. Why not go to your funeral in sty-le." "Whatever!" She jumped in to the only so familiar Red Convertible. Kuwabara looked at Sicily through his black sunglasses and said, "Why are you late anyway?" "You wouldn't get it" "Me!? Not get it. Just try me." "Well I was at my grandmother's doing chores but I lost track of time." "Don't worry baby face. I'll get you there. I'm supposed to go anyway." "Oh, Thank-you Kuwabara!" Sicily hugged him. He blushed. "Stop getting fresh with me Little Urameshi. I didn't save you I just helped you out" "oh I get it"
"Sicily! Where were you? I have been worried sick! You were supposed to be here at 5:00; it's 6:05! We don't have a lot of time before dinner. Go up to your room and get ready as fast as you can!" Kieko was practically pushing her upstairs. "Ok. Geez.. Mom" When Sicily got to her room she was left with 20 min to get ready. A beautiful Dark green dress was lying on her newly made bed. It was the prettiest dress Sicily had ever seen. It was Velvet on the top area, which would cover her breast area down to her bellybutton, And a blackish greenish color the rest of the way down. Next to the dress was a pair of evil shoes (to Sicily anyway)
~ Flashback~
"But MOM!" "Come now Sicily, you know you would need new shoes sometime." "But." "Sicily you heard your mother. Just wear them once. It is a really important day to day." Yusuke knew she would have to have a little bribe. "I'll make a deal with you. If you wear the shoes, tonight, then you can burn them, and never have to wear them again." Sicily, now 9, had to go to this boring, beyond all believe, meeting with her parents to meet Chuu and of course her future love Rinku (whom she already knew) But this wasn't just a greeting Sicily would be performing in long school night parade. But it really wasn't a parade they just couldn't think of anything else. She would have to sing. And not only sing, but in front of everyone (Hiei, Kurama, Kuwabara, Kieko, Koenma, Botan, Yusuke, Chuu, Yukina, and Rinku.) When that fateful night was over, she burned the shoes, which had made her trip four times during her songs. But that wasn't the end. In two months, Kurama was going to his first date, and had to bring her with him. Then the night before, the shoes returned and clinged to her feet. They made her trip, Kick, itch, hit. Boy did she get a whomping from her dad for that. T_T But that was all in the past.or was it to be repeated?
She gave out a small gasp and tried to find something to bury them in., But it was too late the shoes had magically clinged to her feet like before. She cried and gripped them in her hands, but it was as if they had been super glued on. She tried once again and this time it was as if they had bit her leaving a small bloodspot in her palm. Sicily saw this blood spot but ignored it and wiped the small amount of blood on her pants. Finally, ready Sicily walked down to her living room and waited. "Ding- Dong" "Sicily, get the damn door! It's probably Kurama!" yelled a distracted Yusuke. "Geez...Fine!" She did. Sure enough, it was Kurama. "Hello Young Sicily, May I say you look enchanting" Sicily blushed. Kurama flipped his hair and put a rose in Sicily's black hair. She gasped excitedly. All of a sudden, her legs started to tremble and before she knew it, she had kicked Kurama in the shin. She held her breath "Why me" she ran to the table waiting for Hiei. When he had finally come, she had kicked him in the groin in surprise. All through dinner, she tried to hold her legs still. Then she couldn't take it "AH!!!!!!!!" "Sicily what' wrong?" Fire started to glow around her, "Evil unbind me, Fire ignite me; AKU FLAME!" She pointed her finger at the shoes and a small demon faerie climbed out. Botan grabbed it. "Whoa! What the hell was that?!" "What was what?" said Yusuke. "That faerie? It came out of my shoe!" "Sicily watch your language." "Sorry mom." It was as if Sicily hadn't even noticed she just used her first spirit attack (cuz she didn't). It was as if that had been erased from her memory. Everyone was so stunned, her parents told her to bed, just so they could talk about it away from her.
"Yusuke, you will have to tell her sometime." Said a worried yet aggravated Botan. "I know, but how?" "If you just listen to your heart you will find a way." Said a sure of himself Kurama. "Yeah my heart," Yusuke thought to himself "But how" --------- Sunday soon passed and Monday morning was upon the world.
"Look at her, she is actually listening to what he's saying.." "Look she's taking notes" "I heard all the teachers hate her" "I heard she is related to Urameshi. So watch your back she might jump you" ---These were the usual murmuring of Sicily's classmates talking about.her. She didn't listen half the time and didn't care the other half. But everyone has a breaking point and they were about to find it. "Hey Sicily, is it true you talk to squirrels?" they all laughed. "How did.?" But she knew how. She caught a glimpse not too far away of that boy. She gave him the saddest look and ran outside crying. "I thought he was nice. I thought he was different. But NO! he's the same as all of them." She reached a wall and sat down crying, no balling. It was the end of the day and soon the last bell could be heard for miles. Sicily didn't have the nerve to get up and go home, instead she sat not looking up to see if anyone was watching her dramatic scene. Then as if an angel had appeared out of nowhere she felt a soft hand touch her shoulder. She stopped and looked up in fright to see who it might be. "Oh its you" "What do you mean?" "You! You told everyone I talk to squirrels. As if they don't think I am weird enough." Sicily stood up trying to stop crying but it all flooded out again. "Why did you do this, I thought you were going to be my friend!" She could tell this boy was feeling bad now. He sighed and told her he was her friend or was willing to be if she gave him one last chance. She cried deeper and louder as if someone had stabbed her with a knife. Then Hearts traveled around them and before she could say anything he had given her the only hug that had ever made her feel better. Sicily cried into his arms. "I have to go now, but I hope we will see one another again. Here." He handed her a slip of paper with a phone number on it. "Call me." He winked and started walking away. "Wait!" "Hmm?" "What's your name?" "My name.my name is Toby." He walked again. "Toby." She sighed a sigh of happy relief.
Now she was a little happy, but that wasn't going to be that way for long. Some boys from her school started throwing rocks at her and continuing about the squirrel thing. Sicily ran and ran and soon ran into a small alleyway. She sat down panting and sniveling. "Why me?" All of a sudden a hand came out of Nowhere and grabbed her by the shirt taking her into the bright sky.
Girl on the run

Sicily saw this blood spot but ignored it and wiped the small amount of blood on her pants. Finally, ready Sicily walked down to her living room and waited. "Ding- Dong" "Sicily, get the damn door! It's probably Kurama!" yelled a distracted Yusuke. "Geez...Fine!" She did. Sure enough, it was Kurama. "Hello Young Sicily, May I say you look enchanting" Sicily blushed. Kurama flipped his hair and put a rose in Sicily's black hair. She gasped excitedly. All of a sudden, her legs started to tremble and before she knew it, she had kicked Kurama in the shin. She held her breath "Why me" she ran to the table waiting for Hiei. When he had finally come, she had kicked him in the groin in surprise. All through dinner, she tried to hold her legs still. Then she couldn't take it "AH!!!!!!!!" "Sicily what' wrong?" Fire started to glow around her, "Evil unbind me, Fire ignite me; AKU FLAME!" She pointed her finger at the shoes and a small demon faerie climbed out. Botan grabbed it. "Whoa! What the hell was that?!" "What was what?" said Yusuke. "That faerie? It came out of my shoe!" "Sicily watch your language." "Sorry mom." It was as if Sicily hadn't even noticed she just used her first spirit attack (cuz she didn't). It was as if that had been erased from her memory. Everyone was so stunned, her parents told her to bed, just so they could talk about it away from her.
"Yusuke, you will have to tell her sometime." Said a worried yet aggravated Botan. "I know, but how?" "If you just listen to your heart you will find a way." Said a sure of himself Kurama. "Yeah my heart," Yusuke thought to himself "But how" --------- Sunday soon passed and Monday morning was upon the world.
"Look at her, she is actually listening to what he's saying.." "Look she's taking notes" "I heard all the teachers hate her" "I heard she is related to Urameshi. So watch your back she might jump you" ---These were the usual murmuring of Sicily's classmates talking about.her. She didn't listen half the time and didn't care the other half. But everyone has a breaking point and they were about to find it. "Hey Sicily, is it true you talk to squirrels?" they all laughed. "How did.?" But she knew how. She caught a glimpse not too far away of that boy. She gave him the saddest look and ran outside crying. "I thought he was nice. I thought he was different. But NO! he's the same as all of them." She reached a wall and sat down crying, no balling. It was the end of the day and soon the last bell could be heard for miles. Sicily didn't have the nerve to get up and go home, instead she sat not looking up to see if anyone was watching her dramatic scene. Then as if an angel had appeared out of nowhere she felt a soft hand touch her shoulder. She stopped and looked up in fright to see who it might be. "Oh its you" "What do you mean?" "You! You told everyone I talk to squirrels. As if they don't think I am weird enough." Sicily stood up trying to stop crying but it all flooded out again. "Why did you do this, I thought you were going to be my friend!" She could tell this boy was feeling bad now. He sighed and told her he was her friend or was willing to be if she gave him one last chance. She cried deeper and louder as if someone had stabbed her with a knife. Then Hearts traveled around them and before she could say anything he had given her the only hug that had ever made her feel better. Sicily cried into his arms. "I have to go now, but I hope we will see one another again. Here." He handed her a slip of paper with a phone number on it. "Call me." He winked and started walking away. "Wait!" "Hmm?" "What's your name?" "My name.my name is Toby." He walked again. "Toby." She sighed a sigh of happy relief.
Now she was a little happy, but that wasn't going to be that way for long. Some boys from her school started throwing rocks at her and continuing about the squirrel thing. Sicily ran and ran and soon ran into a small alleyway. She sat down panting and sniveling. "Why me?" All of a sudden a hand came out of Nowhere and grabbed her by the shirt taking her into the bright sky.
