Disclaimer: I do not own YYH...or Kurama.... or Hiei...although they are both SO KAWAII! Oh I hate this miserable fate! However, I do own Hinoki, and everyone else that came in the previous chapter. This is going to be so very funny.

Note: Anyways, yeah, I got rid of the Twin Towers sequel and decided to put in this one instead. It is going to be ever so cool! I know you'll just love it! Besides, it has more humor in it than the other one I had made. Not to mention i had lost all possible interest in that story anyways...but the basic plot will still happen in this one... just no trips to New York in this one. All I can say is that one person dies in this story, I am sad to say. Oh! And Ari is Hinoki's human name. Like Shuuichi is Kurama's. Anyways, enjoy... and may your days be filled with many Bishounens! Ja ne!





Hinoki was back at home with her adoptive human mother and her kid brother, Damien.

"Please pass the soy sauce, Ari." Damien said politely, putting a spoonful of rice into his mouth.

Hinoki shot him a cool stare, "Your arms are completely functional! Get it yourself!" She snapped.

Her brother was completely taken aback, "N-nevermind, I'll eat it plain!" He said exasperatedly.

Hinoki lifted herself from the table, carrying her bowl out with her as she murmured softly, "Excuse me."

Damien watched his sister leave the dining room and scowled with a heartfelt sigh. He looked over to his mother who had been watching the whole scene from her seat eating her rice peacefully. "Mom? Why is Ari so crabby all of a sudden?" he asked.

His mother looked up from her bowl at him and smiled, "She's a teenager. All odds say it could be boy-troubles."

Hinoki lay on her bed, staring at the ceiling. An image of Hiei entered her mind, followed by something that she had said to him. 'So you'd rather I'd died in that castle? Is that it?'

she moaned and rolled over onto her side. "He's such a jerk! But...if i hate him so, why can't i stop thinking about him?" She asked herself.

"Stop thinking about who?" Asked a familiar voice from her doorway.

Hinoki bolted upright in her bed and saw in her doorway a young man with short brown hair and JR written in bold, black letters on his forehead.

"K-Koenma!" Hinoki stuttered.

"Yo!" Koenma answered.

"Since when did my mom allow toddlers in teenager's skin to walk into the house?" Hinoki snapped mischievously.

"Since she allowed a demon into her house." Koenma countered.

Hinoki growled and lay back down onto her pillow, staring at the ceiling. "So... what do you want?"

Koenma walked into the room and sat on the bed, "I came to check and see how you were doing since your kidnapping. Not to mention I also came to relay a message to you from Kurama."

Hinoki looked at him, "You mean you came to make sure I have adjusted back to normal life since then so I can come back and be one of your lapdogs again."

"Well, when you make it sound like that, even Yusuke would quit. But that is one reason why I have come to check up on you, yes. I need you to get to work on case soon. I'll give you details later. Right now I have a message for you." Koenma explained.

Hinoki sighed and sat up, "Okay, what does the man in red want from me?"

Koenma sighed, "He wants you to go to the skating rink with him. Tomarrow afternoon."

Hinoki was surprised, "You mean... like a... date?"

"Sort of. See... Hiei will be there. So... don't give your hopes up." Koenma explained.

Hinoki sighed, "Great... bring the gothic cronie."

"So... who was it you were thinking about?" Koenma pressed.

"Not that it is any of your business, but it was Hiei." Hinoki snapped.

"What... do you like him or something?" Koenma asked.

"What! Are you crazy!? Why would I like that creepy, mountain-headed gothic, red-head-groupie!?!" Hinoki shouted.

"I see... you're still mad about the fight you two had... aren't you?" Koenma said sadly.

"Hell yeah! Why wouldn't I be? He practically said he would have rather seen me die!" Hinoki shouted.

"Sometimes... Hiei says things he doesn't mean to." Koenma informed her.

"I'll make a note. Now out! I'll get on the case later!" She said, pushing Koenma out of her room.

The next day, Hinoki was energetic and ready for the events ahead. She was ready for the skating rink, now all she had to do was get her brother off of her case.

"Why do you get to go!?" Damien whined.

"Because a friend and his gothic cronie asked me to go! Now quit your whining. Besides, I'd look pretty pathetic babysitting a brat like you!" Hinoki snapped as she tied one of her shoes.

"How is that different than any other day?" Damien countered. Suddenly he realized something, "Oh! I get it! Two boys asked you out, so instead of choosing, you decided to go out with both of them!"

"What!?! You Hilary Duff groupie! I just met these two guys and already you are making accusations!? I hardly know them!"

"I am not a groupie! And, even if i was what would that make you? A hooker?"

Hinoki threw a nearby boot at his head. It hit him square on the forehead, "You single-celled organism! what the hell are you blabbing about!?! You brat! Go blow something! Like maybe that Britney Spears doll you got for Christmas!" Hinoki shouted as she crept out the door.

"If I'm a single-celled organism then you're a no-celled organism!" Damien shouted after her.

Hinoki ran the entire way to the rink. At least she had one thing to thank Hiei for, and that was his uncomprehendable speed. She pushed the words of her brother out of her conscious mind.

Once she had arrived, she scanned the rink for Kurama and Hiei. Sh spotted them at a table closest to the rental skates booth.She ran over to them, carrying her skates over her shoulder. Kurama saw her approaching and waved at her from his seat.

"Long time no see! What's the big thing you wanted to discuss?" Hinoki asked.

"Nothing really. I just thought I'd invite you for a day of fun, sort of like a date. But Hiei insisted in coming along." Kurama explained.

"Why? Did he have to chaperone? Or isn't being a gothic, mountain-headed cronie with no fashion sense not good enough for him?" Hinoki asked mischievously.

Hiei observed her outfit. It was a white tanktop with bold black letters that read: 0% Angel. She wore a black sleevless vest and black hip hugger jeans.

"Hn. And your clothing is any more appealing?" Hiei snapped.

"I can see why you came along. You're anti-social and you need to loosen up. Go with the flow. Dance to the beat. You know? Be human for once." Hinoki said.

"Hinoki, I don't think that is something you should really advise of him." Kurama informed her.

"Why? Is he racist against humans or something?" Hinoki asked.

"Hn. There have been exceptions." Hiei muttered.

"Oh, I see! You're the honorable type. The type who needs to see how worthy a person is before you even like them or become loyal. So that's how you are. Well, I don't need to prove myself to you. I don't even like you." Hinoki said angrily as she sat down to put on her skates.

Once the two demons were on the floor, Hiei watched them as he nibbled on the nachos he had gotten from Kurama. He hadn't noticed Koenma sit down next to him, but he had felt his presance.

"What do you want, Koenma?" Hiei demanded, not taking his eyes off of Kurama and Hinoki.

"I see you and Hinoki haven't settled your differences." Koenma said.

"Very observant, you fool. She is too stubborn, why would I bother with someone like her?" Hiei asked with a smirk.

"I can't imagine where I've seen that behavior before." Koenma said sarcastically.

"Hn. And what are you implying?" Hiei asked.

"N-nothing! But... see, the reason she acts so angry is because when you and her got into that fight, she was hurt by what you said. So, instead of crying about it and letting out her emotions like any ordinary person, she gets angry and does her best to hide how much she hurts inside. As a child she cried a lot at night, because of the few memories she has of her mother. I guess she just got tired of crying one day. Now anger and revenge are the only things that actually control her now." Koenma explained to him.

Hiei looked at Hinoki as she skated by again. She was laughing with Kurama as they skated together. In the background Hiei could hear the echo of the DJs announcement. A different song was being played and the DJ announced it was for "couples only."

Koenma looked out at Hinoki and Kurama as they held hands, still talking to each other and laughing. (All you Kurama fans MUST hate me by now!)

"Hn." Was all Hiei had to say in response to Koenma's information.

"I just thought I'd break the ice between you two. Maybe now you'll understand why she never shows a tear of sadness."

As Koenma stood up to leave, Hiei couldn't help but feel a slight hint of sympathy for the girl. But, somehow he knew she wouldn't want his pity. If she was anything like him.

Once the song was over, Kurama and Hinoki left the floor together. They skated up to Hiei.

"Okay, Hiei. Kurama and I have been talking and I think I should apologize for how angry I have been toward you these past couple of days. I realize you didn't mean it. So, let's go somewhere else, okay?" Hinoki said sweetly.

"Hn." Hiei responded. For some reason, inside Hiei felt relieved to see her happy again.

They decided to go to the arcade next. As they exited the building, it began to pour. Lightning flashed across the blackened skies.

"I can't believe how fast this storm came up!" Hinoki shouted over the screaming winds.

"We need to find shelter, and quickly!" Kurama shouted in reply.

They ran to the nearest building, which happened to be a McDonald's.

Their hair was mopping wet and their clothes were drenched.

"I have no money, and my house isn't far from here either. I can run with Hiei's speed, carrying Kurama on my back. Hiei, I know can manage himself... for now. No one will see us if we run fast enough." Hinoki suggested.

"It sounds like a thorough plan. And as long as we avoid open areas and keep moving, we shouldn't get hit by the lightning." Kurama pointed out.

"How do you plan on carrying Kurama? He is bigger than you." Hiei asked in a cool voice.

"I'm stronger than I look. I can carry him on my back." Hinoki said, slightly annoyed.

They walked out of the McDonald's, ignoring the constant stares. Hinoki lifted Kurama onto her back in a piggy-back form and both Hiei and she ran off for her house.

They were on a quiet road that was rarely taken by anyone. The rain had slowed to a light drizzle, and now the winds were strong, and because they were closer to Hinoki's home than any other building, they continued onward. Hinoki, of course, allowed Kurama to walk with the winds as bad as they were.

"How could the winds have gotten this bad so fast?" Hinoki asked. But with the winds as fast and rough as they were, she doubted either of them had heard her.

They had not even walked another mile when they had seen a funnel of swirling winds heading toward them. It advanced upon them rapidly. Before they could turn and run, the winds swept them off of their feet and into the tornado.
