This story is a three part story about how Kaiya, Suki, and Mika become demons. Just to let you know.


A few months passed since the fight with Kiense. Mayonaka was settled in her new home in America. Kiense and his team rented a house where Mayonaka visited when her mother allowed it. Kaiya stopped talking to Mayonaka except by occasionally writing letters letting Mayonaka know that she and her friends were still alive. Things were more peaceful but, as we all know, peace is the calm before the storm.

"So, Kai-Kai, you ready for finals?" Mika asked as she and Kaiya were walking to the library to meet up with Suki.

"Not a chance," Kaiya said. "This semester has been awful. It was bad enough we had to deal with a crazy fire demon and psychics, but then I had to be smart enough to take the hardest classes in the world."

"What classes?"

"Biochemistry and vertebrate histology…also organic chemistry…and animal nutrition...sigh."

"What did you do that for?"

"I didn't think it would be that bad…I was wrong."

"How many hours?"

"Twenty-one..."

Mika slightly chuckled and shook her head. "Silly Kai-Kai."

"Trix are for kids," Kaiya finished off the sentence.

"Hahaha, exactly."


"So, what do you want to do about it?" Yusuke asked Kurama.

"I don't know," Kurama said. "If he's alive, shouldn't I go look for him?"

"If I had thought my friend was dead for hundreds of years and then found out he wasn't, I would go find him. But that's just me."

Kurama sighed. "What about Sui? I can't bring her with me to the Makai; and I may be gone for a long time."

Yusuke patted his hand to Kurama's shoulder. "If she truly loves you, she'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes."

"I hope you're right."


"Are you serious?" Sui asked into her phone.

"Yes I'm serious. I got you an internship at a new Go center. It's for four years and you would have to come home."

"Four years?" Sui asked, her heart sinking. "Would it really be that long?"

After her mother explained the details of the internship, Sui reluctantly agreed. Now she had to figure out how she would tell Kurama that she would be leaving for four years.


"I don't know why I even took this class," Kaiya grumbled as she studied her histology notes alone in hers and Hiei's secret training spot on the beach.

"What class?"

Kaiya jumped at the sound of Hiei's voice, more because she didn't sense him coming. She made a mental note not to study the when she's outside by herself. It could have been anyone.

Kaiya smiled at Hiei who sat down beside her and looked at the textbook. "It's called histology. The study of tissues…it's a difficult class and I learned too late that I shouldn't have taken it. Well, you live and learn."

"What do you learn about?" Hiei asked forcing himself to make conversation.

"Well, on Valentine's Day we learned how to get rid of a dead body and another day we learned how people used to eat bone marrow."

"Hm, that sounds like an interesting class," Hiei said smirking.

Kaiya shook her head. "I probably shouldn't have said anything. Don't you dare try to read my mind about the first thing I said or I'll be the one to use the technique on you."

"Hn, I'd like to see you try, onna."

"What did I say about you calling me that?"

"I don't recall," Hiei lied.

"Sure you don't," Kaiya muttered. "Anyway, if you're so interested in this class I'm talking about, why don't you come with me one day?"

"Hn. And sit in a room full of humans? I don't think so."

"You sit in a room full of humans whenever you come over. Besides, maybe he'll teach us something along the lines of the first thing I mentioned. The only way you'll find out is if you come."

"Hn. Whatever. Maybe," he said closing his eyes.

Kaiya took him by surprise and jumped him giving him a hug and a quick kiss on the lips. Hiei tensed and Kaiya's eyes got wide. She quickly got off of him and they both blushed.

"Let's pretend that didn't happen," Kaiya said, forcing herself not to look at Hiei.

"Agreed." He was still pretending the first one didn't happen.


"Sui, there's something I have to tell you," Kurama said sitting with Sui at their favorite restaurant.

"Me first, Kurama," Sui said, looking down. Kurama looked at her with a confused expression and Sui sighed. "Look, this isn't going to be easy so I'm just going to come out and say this. My mother got me an internship at a Go institute that has recently opened up in America. It's four years and I have to leave this summer. I am planning on taking it…but I don't know what to do about us."

Kurama looked down and shook his head. "This probably came at a good time." Sui raised an eyebrow. Kurama looked down at their entwined hands. "I'm going to Demon World in search for Kuronue. I don't know how long I will be gone for, but I can't just stay here knowing that he's alive somewhere. I have to find him."

Sui sighed and smiled. "He's your friend; I get that. Go find him. You'll regret it if you don't. Just…what does that mean for us?"

"I…I'm not sure. What do you want?" Kurama asked. "You're going to be living a new life. If you have any doubts about our future, I need to know. It wouldn't be fair to keep you trapped in a relationship."

"Same goes for you," Sui said. "I guess that means we are breaking up?"

"I guess it does," Kurama said sadly.


"Hey you guys, what's wrong?" Mika asked Kaiya and Hiei who were sitting outside the science building. "And Hiei, what the hell are you doing here at our school?"

"Trying to force myself not to kill certain individuals."

"Then why are you here? You hate people, so why come around here?"

Hiei glared at Kaiya who looked up at the sky trying to look innocent.

"Kaiya, what did you do?"

"I just happened to invite Hiei here for my histology class A) because I was bored and B) because he was curious about my teacher who told us how to dispose of a dead body."

"And you let him come?" Mika asked raising an eyebrow.

"Like I said, class bores me. It's really difficult and makes little sense half the time."

"Well, so why is he pissed off about it?"

"I'm right here, onna. You can ask me directly."

"So, KAIYA, what happened?" Hiei growled.

"Well, he put his hands on mine and Hiei's heads…I sit in the front...and he decided to use the two of us as examples…and well, you know how Hiei is." Kaiya grinned.

Mika laughed. "Oh my God, I have GOT to text Suki about this!"

"Do it and die, onna," Hiei growled.

"Yeah, yeah," Mika waved him off. "You wouldn't do anything with Kaiya around. Besides, you know you can't catch me."

"She's right you know," Kaiya teased. "Anyway, when my teacher did that it made me think of duck-duck-goose."

"Excuse me?" Hiei asked, turning his head slowly towards Kaiya with a confused yet disgusted look on his face.

"It's a game," Mika said, "but one for young kids."

"Yeah, but I bet if we told Suki she would totally want to play."

"We are not playing this game," Hiei grumbled.

"Oh yes we are," Mika said. "When we get together later, I'm sure everyone will want to play."

Kaiya's phone rang at that moment and she answered it. It was Sui. "Hey Sui, what's up?...Packing? Why?...Are you serious? When are you leaving?...Okay, I'll come home to help." Kaiya hung up her phone looking pale.

"What's wrong, Kai-Kai?" Mika asked.

"Sui's leaving…"

"For how long?"

"Long enough for her and Kurama to break up…"

"What?" Hiei asked. "Kurama wouldn't break up with her."

Kaiya nodded. "You're right," she replied. "She broke up with him."


"I don't get why we are doing this?" Suki said. "Can't she pack for herself?"

"Suki, I'm against this, too, you know," Kaiya replied. "Kurama is my friend and Sui is my sister and I wanted them both to be happy."

Mika made a face. "I bet her mom did this on purpose."

"I agree," Suki said.

"Honestly, I feel the same way," Kaiya said sadly. "I mean, her mother already booked the flight and everything."

"Don't you have a flight sometime this week?" Suki asked. Mika and Kaiya looked at her. "What, I just remembered."

"She hasn't told Hiei she's going home yet, Suki," Mika answered her.

"Why not?"

"Well, first my histology teacher pissed him off and then Sui told us her news so now he's over at Kurama's probably making sure he's okay."

"But you are going to tell him right?" Suki asked.

"Of course! I mean I mentioned it to him already; I just never told him when," Kaiya answered. "I'm only going for a few weeks anyway. It's not like I'm going away forever."

"Where are you going?"

The three girls turned to look and saw Hiei and Kurama standing in the doorway. Kaiya smiled at Hiei and then frowned at Kurama.

"I'm sorry about my sister," she said. Kurama just gave a faint smile. "As for where I'm going, I was going to tell you earlier. I'm going to visit my father's family for a couple of weeks. My cousins miss me and wanted to see me. I'll be back in about two or three weeks, okay?" Hiei nodded.

"So how old are your cousins again?" Mika asked.

"Twelve and ten. Yeah, I know. Pretty young, but we get along great…when they aren't trying to fight me that is."

"I'm sorry…what?" Kurama asked.

"They like to fight for fun…it's pretty annoying when you aren't really prepared to fight or worried you'll set them on fire, but hey, I've come a long way since then."

"Yeah, and no setting cars on fire," Mika teased.

"Shut up, Mika-chan," Kaiya grumbled.

"So where is Sui?" Kurama asked.

Kaiya's face fell. "She didn't tell you what time she was leaving?" Kurama shook his head. "She's gone now," Kaiya said sadly. "We're just packing up the stuff that needs to be shipped over to her."

Kurama's eyes widened in shock. Sui didn't even say "goodbye" when she left; she just walked away. He had at least expected her to have him give her a ride to the airport.

"Oh."

"Kurama, I-"

"It's fine," he said with a sad smile. "I have somewhere I need to be anyway. I will see you guys…well, I don't know when." He left.

"What was that about?" Mika asked.

"He's going to Demon World to find Kuronue," Hiei answered, looking bored.

"Anyway," Suki said trying to change the subject. "Don't you need to pack too, Kaiya?"

"Yeah, I do," she answered. "I have no idea what to bring, though."

"Well, we can help you with that," Mika said. "Come on Suki. Hiei, you wait out here."

"Hn."


Hiei waited outside, but he could hear the girls talking.

"Okay, clothes, check; jewelry and makeup, check; cell phone, lap top, and DS, check, check, and check; and suppression ring, check."

"Kaiya, did you say suppression ring?" Suki asked. "I thought you didn't need that anymore."

Kaiya laughed. "I don't need it as often but I will definitely need it for the trip just in case."

"Why?" Mika asked.

"My cousins are crazy, but I love them."

"Crazy how?" Suki and Mika asked.

"Like us except aggressive. For fun they have tried to beat up on me and drown me." Kaiya kept laughing.

"Drown you?" they asked.

"And you're still laughing?" Suki asked.

"I thought Suki was crazy," Mika said.

"Well, you're the masochist," Suki retorted.

"Chill you two," Kaiya said, trying to stop her laughter. "It was all in good fun…then she chased me."

"She?" Mika asked.

"Yeah, Kata. She's my younger cousin on my father's side. She acts sweet about twenty-five percent of the time and the rest of the time tries to fight me for fun…or most recently, attempt to drown me and then chase me when I finally got away."

"You have one of the most…interesting…families ever," Mika said chuckling.

"Yeah, the older one, Keiji…he kind of likes to fight me. He tries to hit me if I try to mess with his hair or something and I defend using my hands and then he hits my pressure point in my hand," Kaiya said starting to laugh. "Just wait until he sees that I can defend myself without my hands."

"You're not planning on exposing yourself, right?" Suki asked.

"Of course not, but that doesn't mean I can't dodge."

"Didn't both your aunts have babies recently?" Mika asked.

"Yup, both boys. I don't think I have to worry about them fighting me any time soon, though. They're just babies."

"True," both girls said. They continued packing in silence, unaware that Hiei was listening in and worried that Kaiya was putting herself in danger.

She lets her cousins nearly kill her and doesn't do anything back? Hiei asked himself. Who the hell does that? No matter. I will make sure it doesn't happen again.


The next day Kaiya had left for America to visit her father's family this time. Mika and Suki began to move their things into Kaiya's apartment. They agreed that it would be easier for the three of them to live together now that both Mayonaka and Sui had moved out.

Hiei had stowed away on the plane to accompany Kaiya without her knowledge. She would have made him leave, but if he showed up at her family's house she couldn't force him to leave.

The next day, after the plane landed and Kaiya made it to her grandparents' house and got settled. Hiei remained outside in a tree and watched her interact with her family for a couple of hours, and then he left the tree and knocked on the door.

Kaiya frowned as she sensed Hiei's energy. What is he doing here? she thought to herself. Her grandmother went to go answer the door. "Don't worry, grandma. I'll get it."

Kaiya opened the door and glared at the fire demon. "Can I help you?" she asked.

"Why are you visiting people who attack you?" he asked angrily.

Kaiya stared blankly at him and then started laughing. "Oh, so you overheard that, huh? Don't worry. They can't hurt me and they never would on purpose."

"But you said-"

"Come on in and meet them and you'll understand."

"Hn."

"Kaiya, who's that?" Kata asked in English.

"My friend, Hiei. He came all the way from Japan to surprise me," she answered in English.

"What did you say to them?" he asked, not knowing English. Kaiya repeated what she said in Japanese.

"So, your friend doesn't know English, huh?" Keiji asked in Japanese. "That's okay, I can't talk in Japanese. I've been learning."

"Hn."

"He's quiet," Keiji said smiling. He turned to Kaiya. "Let's play, cuz."

Kaiya giggled. "Sure, but I still won't fight back."

"Yeah, yeah," Keiji said. Hiei watched as the boy threw a weak punch at Kaiya. Kaiya blocked the punch with her arm.

Hiei raised his eyebrow in confusion, but watched Kaiya and Keiji. His eye widened when he saw Keiji randomly trying to hit Kaiya; but she kept using her arm to block, not allowing the boy access to her hands. She then took both his hands and moved behind him forcing his hands against his back.

"You got better, cuz," Keiji said smiling.

"Eh, I've been training," Kaiya said while laughing.

"Yeah, right. Never gonna happen. You're too lazy."

"Shut up," Kaiya giggled while tickling her cousin. She got up and started walking back to over to Hiei. Keiji then tried to charge her, but she dodged at the last second and he crashed into the counter.

"Good job," Kaiya said. "But maybe you shouldn't fight in the kitchen."

"As opposed to the lake, Kata," Keiji teased.

"I got carried away," Kata said, trying to defend herself speaking in Japanese as well.

"It's okay, Kata," Kaiya said patting her head. "I know that I gave you the perfect opportunity to dunk me…just next time, don't grab my neck and pull me under, okay. You scared me."

"Sorry, won't happen again."

"Anyway, we're going to go upstairs for a minute," Kaiya said, gesturing to Hiei. "I'll show him where he can stay."

"Alright," her grandmother said, "but remember we will be having dinner shortly."

"Okay," Kaiya called back to her grandmother as she and Hiei started climbing the stairs.


Back in Japan, Mika and Suki were exploring the wonders of hair dye. "And you're sure this will work? My head is really itchy."

"Suki, I've done this before. You have to leave the bleach in for twenty more minutes or we can't dye your hair red."

"Mika, why did I let you do this?"

"Because you wanted me to…?" Mika responded in a questioning tone.

"Seriously, how much longer?" Suki asked while trying not to scratch her head.

"Nineteen minutes."

"AW!"


"Why is this place so…bright?" Hiei asked.

"What are you talking about?" Kaiya asked. "It's no lighter than my apartment."

"Colorful, then…"

"Oh, you mean the decorations. Yeah, grandma does a lot to make this place look like a happy environment. You should see the sun room. Now that's bright. It was a new addition after the fire."

"Fire?"

"Yeah, they had a fire here when I was here once. I thought I already told you about that. Interestingly enough, I have fire powers even though I developed a fear of fire after that. It wasn't too bad though and they got to renovate. This place is much bigger than it used to be."

"Hn. So your cousins like to fight?"

"I was wondering when you'd bring that up again," Kaiya said rolling her eyes. "No, not really. They like to play fight. They wouldn't really hurt anyone…except maybe me, but just because I'm their cousin. Anyway, now I can defend myself. Doesn't matter."

"So where am I staying?" Hiei asked looking bored.

"Um, well…" Kaiya said blushing. "Someone else will be staying here so the other guest room is off limits. I know my grandparents would rather have me and her in the same room than me and you, but I don't think it would be a good idea."

Hiei raised his eyebrow. "You make no sense when you're nervous about something. Who else is coming?"

"Oh boy," they heard a voice and turned to the door. Mayonaka was standing in the doorway of the room where Kaiya (and now Hiei) would be staying. Hiei scoffed and walked over to the window and looked outside.

"Hey, Kaiya," Mayonaka said sheepishly.

"Hey, Maya," Kaiya responded dryly. "It's been a while."

"Yeah, it has. Grandma said I'd be staying with you?"

"Yeah, she did, but I don't think that's a good idea for obvious reasons, so you will be staying in the room she's expecting Hiei to stay in and you will keep quiet about him staying in here with me. Got it?"

"Got it." With that Mayonaka left the room to go to the other guest room.


"Why is she here?" Hiei asked Kaiya after a few minutes of silence.

"Mom thinks we need to work out our issues and she thought a change in scenery would be good for both of us."

"And you knew this?"

Kaiya sucked in some air, not really wanting to answer. "I knew everyone would worry, but what was I supposed to say to my mom? 'No, I can't work things out with her because she was helping a fire demon from an alternate reality attempt to kill me and my friends.' I'm sorry, but most humans would think a person is crazy if they say something like that. Besides, I do love my sister; and we've already called a truce for these next three weeks."

"You still should have told us," Hiei said in a calm voice, his eyes still staring out the window.

"Yeah, well, I was planning on it when I got here, but then someone decided to be a stowaway and follow me all the way to another country. I didn't want you to worry. I know how overprotective you get."

Hiei looked at her then, but said nothing. Then Keiji and Kata came to the door, ruining a potential moment.

"So, can we go to the park now that Maya got here?" Keiji asked.

Kaiya put on a fake smile and nodded. "Yeah, and maybe we'll get some ice cream along the way."

The kids cheered and ran back downstairs. Hiei walked over to Kaiya and looked down to the ground awkwardly before grabbing her hand and making her blush. "Let's go."


"Okay, so how did you manage to make my hair look like this?" Suki asked.

"I have no idea, but it looks great. You look like a calico cat. We should call you Cali."

"Please, don't," Suki grumbled.

"Hey girls, what's up?" Yusuke asked coming into Kaiya's apartment.

"Dying Suki's hair," Mika answered.

"Well, okay then," Yusuke said. "Anyway, Kurama left for Demon World today and I got a text from Kaiya's phone from Hiei that Mayonaka is staying at Kaiya's grandparents' house, too, and he feels that we should be there."

"Of course we should!" Mika exclaimed. "I can't stand that girl. When do we leave?"

"Well, that's the thing…" Yusuke said. "None of us have the money to purchase plane tickets so I was talking to the guys and we were thinking…" Yusuke looked sheepishly over to Suki and Mika.

"You want us to use our powers, don't you?" Mika asked.

"Kinda."

"I don't know," Suki said. "Using our powers to stow away on a plane doesn't sound like a good idea."

"Well, we don't have any other option," Yusuke said. "So get packed quickly and let's go."

"Just for that, I'm going to pack super slowly just to piss you off," Mika retorted.

"Whatever, we just need to make sure we catch a plane to…um."

"We know where she went," Suki said. "Don't worry about it."


"I feel bad for her," Kaiya said to Hiei as she sat on a swing. Hiei stood against the metal of the swing set. They were watching Mayonaka play with Kata and Keiji.

"And why is that?" Hiei asked with his voice holding resentment towards Mayonaka. He was watching her like a hawk.

"Because this is the first time she's meeting anyone on our father's side of the family. She hasn't even met our father yet. And I know how she feels."

Hiei looked over to Kaiya. "What are you talking about?"

"Well, I didn't meet my father until I was about eight and meeting the family was nerve wracking for an eight year old. I mean I had this whole family that I didn't even know about, but I wouldn't trade them for anything."

"Why?" Hiei asked.

"I don't feel like talking about it right now, but maybe another day. Right now I just want to enjoy this day. Here I am at the park, sitting on the swings which are my favorite thing about this park, watching my somewhat innocent cousins playing with my sister, while talking to my boyfriend who stowed away on a plane just to make sure I was safe. I couldn't ask for a better surprise." Kaiya took Hiei's hand in hers, gently moving herself back and forth in the swings. Hiei moved closer to her and stared at her. She had a few tears in her eyes and he used his other hand to wipe them away. Just then Kata and Keiji ran over to them with Mayonaka following slowly behind.

"Kaiya, can we go get ice cream now?" Kata asked.

Kaiya laughed at her cousin and nodded. "Yeah, ice cream sounds nice, don't ya think?" she asked looking over at Hiei.

Hiei slightly smiled. "Ice cream sounds great."


A/N: Here's the beginning of the third part of this series. Just an opening filler chapter. I'm hoping to get into the plot in the next chapter. Sorry it's a long chapter, but I just didn't know where to break it. By the way, the thing with my histology teacher did happen (the thing he told us on Valentine's Day) and Mika did try to bleach Suki's hair to dye it red but ended up making her look like a Calico cat. It was accidental but her hair looks amazing. Anyway, read and review and I'll see you in the next chapter.
