It'd been two years for her but obviously longer for the poor Komori whom she was about to contact. It'd been nearly 600 years for Kuronue. They'd met when Kagome had managed to save his life and they'd been friends ever since.

Kagome was running off to go home again when she heard the sounds of someone obviously being chased. Veering off of her path she witnessed as two of the most beautiful men she'd ever seen in her life; one was incredibly Beautiful with long silver hair enough to rival that of even Lord Sesshoumaru, the other was more sexy than pretty and just as dark as the other light. they had obviously wronged someone, and as she looked on she noticed that they appeared to be a Kitsune and a bat of all things. As she watched, the silver fox ran ahead with a single glance backwards, the other was left behind to face their attackers. Kagome immediately felt the need to help the poor man who already seemed injured and veered off course to do just that.

She caused a big explosion, unfortunately Kuronue was injured more than she'd first assumed, so Kagome took it upon herself to treat his wounds and help him until he healed. It was then that they began to form a friendship that would last them from then on.

And now they were to meet again, this time to reunite the two thieves together. So she was going to use the telepathic abilities he'd spawned and trained in her. she sat upon her bed with her legs crossed and a frown of concentration on her face as she prepared mentally for the task at hand, finding the strangely beautiful demon.

"Yo, Kag!" her brother yelled, startling the poor girl right off her perch. "Dinner's done." he then left with the sound of his laughter trailing in his wake.

"What were you doing anyway, sis?" Souta asked as everyone began to eat.

"None of your business squirt." Kagome told him before continuing to eat. "Oh, mama, do you know when I start going to this new school."

"In the morning dear, I think you'll be pleased. Your cousin attends there, so you won't be lonely." Did I mention, Kagome had just been transferred to a new school now that they'd found most of the jewel shards. Inuyasha wouldn't fetch her as often and since she'd been taken out of her old school to be 'home schooled' they thought it best to give the girl a fresh start.

It was the first day at school and Kagome got there just a bit early in order to get her schedule and find her classes. As she walked towards the front doors though, she heard the unmistakable sound of her cousin whining.

"Aw, come on. Why do I have to be here, just because it's our first day back! That means I should be allowed to stay home and sleep!"

"Yusuke, you promised me last week." a female voice sounded, seemingly struggling, perhaps to drag her cousin to their destination.

"Don't be such a baby." a sensuous sounding male voice teased.

"Shut up! You're supposed to be on my side, Kurama!" Kagome felt her smile falter only slightly as she wondered at that last name. She'd managed to locate Kuronue last night and she promised to contact him again when she knew anything else, it seemed he would get a call sooner than they thought.

"YO, Urameshi!" a deep voice cried out.

"Sup Kuwabaka."

"Yo, shut up, Urameshi! I'll fritter you just like I will shorty!"

"ooh, I'm terrified." Yusuke said unaffected.

"You know you'll never actually be able to beat me?" a new voice said.

"Oh, Hello Hiei."

"Good morning."

"I see that our resident imbecile is spouting nonsense as usual."

"so, what, Hiei's gotta go to school now too?"

"actually, he's just escorting us." Just as the voice known as Kurama finished, all five people turned the corner and most of them stopped. Yusuke finally realized that he was the only one still walking. It was then he looked up at what everybody else was and a smile lit even his eyes as he spotted the girl.

"Hey, Urameshi!" she called in an almost cocky manner.

"Higurashi." Yurameshi replied in the same tone. Before any of the Rei-tantei could move to relieve what they thought was tension though, the two seemingly hostile teens were laughing and hugging.

"Did we miss something?" Kuwabara and Keiko asked simultaneously.

"oh yeah," Yusuke remembered his friends. "guys, this is my cousin, Higurashi Kagome. Kay, these are my friends; Minamino Shuichi, Kuwabara Kazuma, Yukimura Keiko, and Hiei."

"Pleased to meet you all."

They then all went together into the office. Kagome ended up having almost ever class with one of the spirit detectives, she had PE with them all, and at random times during the day she could feel the fire apparition's eyes following her.
