Water and Fire
Summary: There are only four elementals that walk the three worlds. Fire, Water, Earth and Wind. United, they could rule the world. When the YYh gang finds the elemental of Water, they must keep her hidden, so that a horribly powerful prophecy does not become a reality. But what will the other elementals do when they find out that she is being kept from them? Will she and a certain fire apparition become closer than they should be? Read to find out. RATED T FOR LANGUAGE!
A/N: Well folks, upon popular demand, here it is again, Water and Fire: recovered after having been deleted by fan fiction for a SECOND time. So, because it's "not allowed" there will be no more authoress' notes or jokes in my stories. Sorry, blame …cough…nevermind.

---------------------------------------------
Chapter 1: The beginning:
"OW! God damnit, Kiya!"
"Oh, shut up, Yusuke, it was only a pencil."
"A really SHARP ONE!"
"Im playing the world's smallest violin for you, Yusuke."
Yusuke Urameshi glared at the girl behind him. He had –unfortunately- known her for 2 years. She had dark blue hair down to her back, silver/light blue-ish eyes and had a mark like a water drop next to her right eye. She stood at an incredible (sarcastic) 4 foot 9 and she had a slender figure. She wore a black tank top with Stewie (from Family Guy..i don't own!) on it that slightly showed her mid-drift and she wore tattered, light blue jeans and black combat boots that went to her knees. Miscellaneous black and blue bracelets adorned her wrists.
She glared back.
"Ok…..you guys…..you can stop glaring at each other, now…..it's time for lunch." Said Kazuma Kuwabara, interrupting the silence. Kiya turned her glare to Kuwabara. She never had a problem with him, per say. She just never really liked him, but she had to put up with him, since he was always around Yusuke. Yusuke and Kuwabara were the only friends she had, for two very good reasons. One: everyone else –in Kiya's opinion- was either not worth her time, or she hated them (which was the case for most people) or Two: everyone steered clear from her. From her blue hair to silver eyes, people thought she was a freak….which was true….to an extent.
She knew she was not human. Kuwabara had established that a while ago. But neither her, Yusuke, or Kuwabara knew what she really was. All she knew was that she wasn't a yokai or a hanyou. Hell, she could be an alien for all she knew.
All three of them walked towards the lunch room, only to be stopped by a peeved looking tall man with short black hair. "Ms. Shikina! That paper you turned into me about the economy was plagiarized! You took it right off the internet! (Hehe, I did that once.)" Mr. Yuko yelled at Kiya, making almost every student in that hallway freeze and stare at her.
Kiya gave an over- exaggerated gasp and said innocently, "Why, Mr. Yuko, it hurts me that you would actually think I would do such a thing!" It was true, she did copy her entire 15 page report off the internet, but hey, not like he could kill her, right?
"Kiya, I've just about had it with you. Either you re-write your report by tomorrow or you are going to be suspended. I've already had a talk with the principal and he agrees. Tomorrow, Kiya." He repeated then walked off, leaving all 3 of them shocked.
First to recover was Kiya, "They wouldn't really. They've been emptily threatening me since the day I started coming to this hell hole." I hope this is an empty threat…..
They all walked to the lunch room, grabbed something to eat, and headed outside.
"Hey, Kiya, after school, Kuwabara and me (I know, bad grammar, but hey, that's yusuke……omg, it rhymed!) are going to go meet up with a friend of ours at his house, wanna come?"
"Sure, not like I have anything else to do." It was true. Kiya didn't have to be home too early….because she didn't have a home. She had been homeless since the day her mother and father disappeared, so she had been living in an old mall that had only one or two shops in it and was so run down, that no one felt the need to lock the doors at night. So yeah, she could be out whenever and where ever she wanted.
"Cool." He stated plainly then began the journey up the ladder on the side of the school to the roof, Kiya and Kuwabara shortly behind.
They reached the roof and sat against the wall, eating their lunch. Well, Kiya was eating her lunch. Yusuke and Kuwabara were more like inhaling theirs. Even after all the time she had known and eaten with the two, the sight never got less disturbing.
Kiya got up and walked over to the side of the building, looking over the side. Below her were students-lots of them, and she grinned evilly at the half eaten sandwich in her hand. She held her sandwich up over the ledge, then carelessly dropped it, walking back to Yusuke and Kuwabara after hearing a satisfying, "ACK!...WHAT THE…..!" from below.
(Skipped to the end of school, because school sucks and no one should have to go through the agony of reading about the boring perils of forced education)
Kiya, Yusuke and Kuwabara were all walking down the sidewalk towards Yuske's friend's house. Kiya had no idea who the hell he was, but frankly, she didn't care. It was Friday, thank god, and she was up for anything.
"Are we there yet?" whined Kiya as she lagged behind.
"No." stated the two boys at the same time.
"Now?"
"No."
"Now?"
"Kiya, shut up."
"……..now?"
"KIYA,---ACK!" yelled Yusuke after feeling a weight suddenly jump onto his back, and he immediately swung his arms under Kiya's legs that were at his side to keep her from falling. Kiya put her arms around her neck and shouted, "Onward, steed!"
Yusuke sighed and trudged on, letting go of Kiya's leg for one moment to smack Kuwabara in the back of the head for laughing at him.
"Ow, Damnit, Urameshi!"
"We're here!" Yusuke stated suddenly, ending Kuwabara's anger.
Kiya jumped off of Yusuke's back and they all proceeded to the door.
Yusuke knocked on it. A tall boy with long red hair and shocking emerald green eyes answered the door. He smiled when seeing all of them, as if expecting all of them.
"Hello, Yusuke. Kuwabara," he looked at Kiya. "Kiya."
Whoa, how the hell did he know my name? she thought to herself as the boy stepped to the side, allowing all of them to enter.
"Hey Kur-….er..Suiichi."
"It's alright, Yusuke, you can call me Kurama, now. But, you and Kuwabara need to come with me for a moment." He turned his attentions to Kiya, "My mother is not home right now, so make yourself at home." He smiled sweetly and her, Yusuke and the idiot left.
Kiya wrinkled her brow in confusion, then sat on one of the couches decorating the living room, staring at one particularly interesting speck on the television. She would've turned it on, but she couldn't find the remote, and she was too lazy to get up to turn it on. So she just sat and stared.
…….Mean While, With the Boys………
"What the hell is going on, Kurama? How did you know her name? We didn't even tell you we were bringing her!" asked a confused Yusuke.
"I believe those are questions for Koenma to answer," just as he said that, a portal appeared in the middle of Kurama's bedroom, right in front of him. "Come on." Said Kurama as he stepped through, followed by Yusuke and Kuwabara.
They appeared on the other side in Koenma's office.
"Ok, I want answers, binky breath, and I want 'em now!" yelled Yusuke, going right up to the toddler's desk and pounding it with his fist.
"Alright, Yusuke, calm down. This girl that you brought, Kiya, she has a great deal to do with your next mission."
Yusuke: o.O
Kuwabara: O.o
Kurama: oo
Hiei: (who was also in the office) --
"WHAT! You had better explain yourself, Koenma!"
"OK! God- Kiya is not human, nor is she a demon. You all know of the elementals, right?"
Murmured 'yes's' could be heard throughout the room.
"Alright, well Kiya is one of them. And you all know of the prophecy that states that if all four elementals were to join together and combine their powers as one, the world would be under their control?"
Again, 'yes' sprouted in the room.
"And you know that because of this, many demon lords either want all of the elementals killed, or they want to control them, so that they can control everything……."
"GET TO THE POINT, TODDLER!" yelled a pissed Yusuke.
"YOU ALL HAVE TO GET KIYA TO UNDERSTAND WHAT SHE IS AND HELP HIDE HER FROM THE OTHER ELEMENTALS SO THAT THE PROPHECY WILL NEVER BECOME A REALITY!" Koenma yelled all with one breath.
Yusuke snapped his mouth shut.
Koenma inhaled deeply before starting again. "Kiya does not yet have her powers. She will receive them on her 16th birthday, which is coming up in..."
"Two days," finished Yusuke. Yusuke had planned on taking her out to a 16 & up club to celebrate. (no, he doesnt like her. She is like his little sister, so…yeah)
"Precisely."
"Koenma, you did not tell us which one of the elements she represents." Said Kurama.
Koenma opened his mouth to answer, but someone else did it for him.
"Water." Said a shadow sitting at the windowsill, looking out of the window to nothing in particular.
