Hey there, this is my first fic and I hope you'll enjoy it. I know the title is alittle well... maybe girlish or lame but it was the best i could come up with. If I can change it later, I promise I'll put a better name... Anyway, there might be a few writing errors but bare with me. This fic is Kurama/OC in case you were wondering and the characters might be slightly out of character but I'm trying my best. And if you couldn't quite understand what the summary said or meant that's ok 'cause once you read on you will. Well, I won't keep you from reading any longer. :D
…...
"There he is! GET'IM!" A group of girls screamed at the top of their lungs.
"Hmm, I guess I just can't have a peaceful walk home, can I?" Kurama thought as he quickly ran pass a corner and vanished.
"Huh? W-where'd he go?" One of the girls said a bit disappointed.
"I don't know. But did you see how hot he looked today? Mega-cute!" Another girl said.
"I know! He looked so yummy! Ahh… We would be like a perfect couple!" The first girl said in a dreamy daze.
"Excuse me? Who said Shuichi's yours? He doesn't need a stuck-up bitch, like you; He needs a real woman. Like me!" The second girl said in a very cocky tone, flipping her hair in emphasis.
"Woman? I'm way older than you!"
"So?"
"SO?"
They continued to argue as they walked out of the school. Kurama watched the whole thing, and chuckled halfheartedly. He was grateful that he still had his fox tricks and can easily escape from situations like this.
Kurama exited the school through the back door, not in the mood for running from anymore love-sick girls. He was walking through the school's staff parking lot which was completely empty. Kurama decided to take his time for the school seemed very peaceful.
Kurama took a deep breath and closed his eyes; absorbing the few moments of peace. A few seconds later, his eyes shot open. Something didn't feel right. Kurama looked around him but everything seemed normal. But the feeling grew stronger; it had to be someone's spirit energy. Kurama sensed it was moving closer to him at great speed. Kurama prepared himself for what was to come. Suddenly, a dark shadow passed him faster than the human eye can follow; its spirit energy was weak and somewhat frightened. Kurama looked in the direction he felt the spirit energy go. I wonder what could've spooked it. And, what was it doing in the human world?
Kurama didn't sense this other spirit energy for it came at lightning speed. Before Kurama even had time to react and dodge the spirit, he was knocked to the ground, landing on his back. Kurama groaned a bit and open his eyes, surprised by what he saw. He felt his cheeks get slightly hot.
Kurama realized that a girl around his age had run into him. She had long black hair that was about waist length. He couldn't see her features well enough because of her long bangs but he noticed the glowing of her eyes through the dark strands. That's when he noticed that the girl was glaring at him.
"Oh, pardon me." Kurama said as politely as he could but the way she looked at him was making him quite irritated. Then, Kurama started to get a bit annoyed. Her glare never lifted, her eyes were piercing. Heh, she made Hiei's glares look like he had puppy dog eyes. Then a sudden wind blew passed them and her glare finally broke. Her eyes widened and darkened. Her face was expressionless as she was completely immobile. Kurama grew tired of this.
"Miss, are you alright? You ran into me and for some reason you've been giving me a rather rude look…" Kurama felt light headed and his breathing turned into quick shallow breaths. He tried to get up but he couldn't even move. That's when he noticed the girl was pinning him down. Even though Kurama was strong and could push her off but he couldn't feel his arms, he couldn't feel his entire body. He didn't know what was happening but the girl's spirit energy was increasing at an incredible rate.
"What… are you…" Kurama felt his spirit energy was really low. The girl's expression changed. It was now dark and seductive. The girl smirked revealing her unnoticed sharp fangs. Kurama raised an eyebrow. What the…? I could've sworn she didn't have fangs before. And did her eyes just fog up? Kurama tried to reach for his rose whip but the girl hissed at him whenever he even twitched. The girl leant down and whispered something that Kurama couldn't recognize the language of. The words were like velvet. This cannot be good. I- I can't think… The girl was centimeters from Kurama's neck, hissing and baring her fangs. Suddenly, she froze but quickly leant back a little, enough for Kurama to notice how pale and shocked she looked. Kurama regained his strength and pushed the girl off.
The girl sat upright and began to glare at him with more intensity. Kurama just stared at her, bewildered. A sound came from her mouth that sounded a lot like a snarl; she stood up glared at him one last time and sped off. What just happened...?
Kurama stood up and stared in the direction the girl ran off to. "That was… unusual."He thought out loud, he replayed what had happened a few minutes ago in his mind and remembered how weak he felt and how hostile her eyes looked. And what was also odd is how she acted at that moment, as if she was only acting on instinct, animal-like.
Kurama dusted himself off. His mind tried to think of possibilities that could explain the girl's actions, but much to Kurama's disappointment: He had no clue. A bright light flashed uncomfortably in Kurama's face. He squinted and saw that it was a shinning object on the ground. Kurama walked over to the object and picked it up. It was a necklace. A very curious looking necklace, it was quite exotic and mysterious. It was a metallic chain that seemed to be under ocean water for a long time and had pieces of seaweed stuck to it. Odd… Kurama held the necklace in the air and a beam of sunlight flashed on it. Kurama noticed that the charm on the necklace began to glitter. Kurama studied the charm closely. The charm was a crescent moon that had some sort of blue luminescent liquid inside of it.
Kurama touched charm and quickly retracted his hand away from it. Kurama winced and looked at his finger, he was bleeding. He had a deep cut in his finger; The necklace must have some defensive aura. Hmm… It's protected by the same aura the girl was emitting. Kurama winced again and looked at his finger, his eyes widened. The deep gash was gone! He stared at the necklace.
"Hmm... Curious necklace…"
The wind cooled her face as she ran as far away as she could; her dark hair flowed like the ocean's waves. She had to get away, away from him. What the hell was wrong with me? I- I couldn't control myself. He smelled so… so… Her eyes began to fog up again but she quickly shook it off.
A few minutes later, she arrived at Coral Beach. She closed her eyes and sighed; she walked to the edge of the water and let the waves caress her bare feet. She laughed lightly. Then a sharp sting hit her hand. AH, SHIT! What the…? She looked at her hand and her index finger was bleeding. "What the hell? Why am I…?" She unknowingly placed her hand on her chest and the blood rushed from her face. "Oh no! My necklace it's-"
SISTER!
"AHH!" She jumped and almost fell back into the sand.
Sister, where are you?
Uh, I'm at the entrance. But-
Good, head mistress is getting anxious.
Yeah, whatever, but could you quit telepathically talking to me out of nowhere, I mean I'll start to think I'm going crazy, Thelxie.
Heh, yeah sorry, but you gotta come quick, head mistress is gonna freak if you don't show up soon.
Alright, but can you open the entrance for me?
Huh, but can't you use your-
No, just open up!
Alright, alright, sheesh!
"Pfft." The slightly annoyed girl blew her hair up in carelessly and waited for her slightly clueless friend to open the entrance.
She placed a hand where her necklace used to be and started to feel nervous. She looked at her bleeding finger and sighed. I guess, I'm in for a long run. Whoever has my necklace is gonna have a hell of a week too… Hell, I'm so screwed! She licked her finger and watched as the cut quickly vanished.
The waves became rough and began to crash into the rocks. A large twelve foot wave towered over the girl, threatening to crush anything in its path; the wave stopped in its tracks. The girl kept her calm composure. The wave started to divide, a small passage way opened in the middle of the wave. The girl looked around for any witnesses. Seeing that the cost was clear, she entered the passage way.
I'll find you; whoever you are.
Kurama walked to his house with thoughts of the girl he er… met earlier. He walked inside the moderately expensive house and was greeted by his worried mother.
"Shuichi, dear, are you alright? You are home a little late then usual…" Her voiced was laced with care and worry.
"I'm alright, mother, just had to pick up some books from the library." Kurama smiled warmly at his mother; even though he was lying to her, he did so to keep her safe. He couldn't tell her what REALLY happened. Either she'll freak out or just faint and fall to the floor.
"Okay then, would you like some dinner?" she gestured to the fancy dining room.
"No thank you, I'm not hungry. I'm just going to go to my room to study." He said as he went up the stairs.
"Alright dear, tell me if you need anything." She said sweetly as she walked towards the kitchen. Kurama didn't like lying to his mother but it's for her own protection.
Kurama entered his room and locked the door. He dumped his school bag on his bed and went over to his book case. He pulled out a blue book and the bookcase began to expand. The bookcase was now three times larger than it was before. Kurama started searching through every demon and spirit book he had, trying to find any information on the girl that was way beyond normal. Kurama stopped for a moment and concentrated on his senses. He smiled lightly and let out a small but audible…
"Hiei?" Kurama felt him jerk from his sitting position on the window sill.
"Damn fox, I hate it when you sense my presence. It's going to make it a lot harder to kill you if it comes to it" Hiei growled a little.
"Nice to see you too, Hiei, want to tell me what brings you here?" Kurama asked as he put a few of the books that had fallen to the floor back in the book case.
Hiei felt a bit uneasy, but being him he would never show it. "There's some strange spirit energy going on in the demon world; and a lot of disappearances and unexplainable deaths as well. I take it you have seen strange things too." Hiei said trying to sound like he didn't care even though he was curious to know if Kurama has seen anything odd in the human world. Kurama sighed, he was curious as well. Maybe if I tell him what happened a few hours ago he'll know something about the girl, Hiei spends most of his time in the demon world and it is possible the girl is a demon…
"What happened with the girl?" Hiei asked pulling Kurama out of his train of thought.
"It is rude to read someone's mind when they're pondering about something that might be important." Kurama teased him a little to let him know it wasn't something bad.
"Hn."
"Anyways, I was walking through my school's parking lot and I s-" Kurama was cut off by his communication mirror that started beeping. Kurama opened and looked at it quizzically. "Koenma?"
"Good evening, Kurama, I need you to come over to spirit world immediately. I need to discuss some important matters with you." The toddler looked to the side of Kurama's room. "Hello Hiei."
"Hn."
"It's alright, Koenma, I'm on my way." He closed the communication mirror and a portal was opened quickly afterwards.
"Why do you listen to the toddler? Why do you let him boss you around? I would've just said no." Hiei crossed his arms and glared at the starry sky.
"You would, wouldn't you?" He chuckled lightly receiving a glare from the fire demon. "Besides, I'm doing this to get my records cleaned. It's better than running from people that want your head for a reward. Don't you think?"
"Hn."
"See you later Hiei." Kurama said as he walked through the portal, leaving Hiei alone in his room.
"Wonder what happened to Kurama with the girl…" He shrugged it off and sighed. "Guess I'll go scare the pathetic ferry girl. She is really fun to scare." He jumped out the window wearing a devious smirk.
…...
Well, thank you for reading the first chapter. I will continue writing the second chapter as soon as I can. I kinda noticed that Hiei is a bit out of character but don't worry, I will fixed that in my next chapters. Well, um… I guess, you can go ahead and review. And, thanks again! :D
