CHAPTER 2 - FALLING APART

"Are you sure you're okay?" Beth asked from her now occupied seat beside Adel in Adel's car. "I've never seen you this hyper before…well, save that time with the red bull." she elaborated with thoughtful expression. Obviously something humorous had happened the time 'with the red bull', but Adel cut in before she could go further.

"I'm fine! I just had a great night's sleep is all." Adel lied, not sure herself why she felt so full of energy. It was as if she'd recharged or something, but how she wasn't sure. That dream hadn't been real, and if it wasn't that, then she wasn't sure what could've brought it on. Maybe visiting with her cat this morning had made her hyper?

"Riiight." Beth said with a look that said she didn't fully believe Adel, but she dropped it none the less. "So, I heard that David thinks your hot…" she trailed off with a devilish grin. Adel stuttered out some form of disbelief, but gave no clear indication if she'd heard that as well. "You think he's hot too, don't you?" Beth asked staring Adel down.

"Well, yeah, but then who doesn't? He's eye candy, big whoop. Not like rumors are ever true like that." Adel grumbled, obviously not happy with the turn of events.

"Maybe…" Beth agreed slightly, but just continued to stare with a devious look on her face. "But, I don't think most rumors like that are heard directly from David's best friend Kyle's mouth though." Beth stated triumphantly, leaving Adel to stutter in surprise.

"Are you serious?" Adel asked glancing quickly between the road to their school and in Beth's general direction.

"As serious as a heart attack. Kyle and I are planning to hopefully have a double date with you two." she explained with a cat like victory expression (think Botan's cat expression).

"Wow…just wow." she mumbled in slight shock. It wasn't from lack of self confidence that she was reacting this way, it was the fact that the boy David was one of those guys. The guys that every girl in the school wanna date, and Adel was more than a little shocked as to why she, out of all the girls, had caught his attention.

The school day went by in a blur as Adel tried to catch David's eye, maybe prove this rumor true. Though, no matter how many times she tried, he seemed stuck on the idea of avoiding her completely. The fact that the two of them had four classes, lunch hour, and two club meetings together didn't stop him from just not talking to her. Grumbling to herself, Adel ignored Beth and Kyle while she got her things together to go home for the day. With a sigh, she waved goodbye to the two of them as she turned to make her way to her car. There was really no point in staying, especially with those two.

"Bye 'del!" called Beth as she leaned slightly into the arm around her waist, Kyle was a possessive kind of guy after all. "I'm sure he'll ask you tomorrow! I'm sure of it!" she called with a huge smile on her face. Adel looked over her shoulder with a somewhat hopeful look before giving a hopeless shrug and a wave over her shoulder. Grumbling to herself, she crawled into her car with a glare at the passing car. It wasn't anyone she really knew, but she was angry at the world at that moment.

XXXX WITH KOENMA XXXX

Grumbles and curses could be heard down the hall from Lord Koenma's office. Upon entering, the first thing that could be seen was his desk, but seated at the desk, with his back turned to the door, was the lord himself. A picture of his latest issue was shown on the screen, the still life of her in mid-transformation. It wasn't that she lost her look of humanity, just that with the energy taken, something else seemed to be added to her DNA make up. It was almost like she became the demon she took in.

A loud ruckus brought Lord Koenma's attention from the matter at hand to the group he'd called for. Yusuke never changed. With a sigh, he turned the television off and turned to face his office door just in time to hear Yusuke come busting through.

"What the hell do you want now?" he grumbled out as he took a relaxed stance before Lord Koenma's desk, quickly followed by the three other people he worked with.

"I called you all in because I believe that chaos is hell bent on happening soon." he explained with a morbid expression on his face as he sighed. Turning slightly he turned on the television to show them as well. The image showed Adel, but now her blonde hair was dark green, her blue eyes white, two horns pushing themselves out of her scalp, and her normal human features were becoming that of a demon's. "This female is one of the last of her kind, the only one of her kind to be awakened."

"Koenma, if I'm correct, I believe there are hundreds of horned demons in demon world, even those at this female's level. I would have to guess she is a class A or high B level demon." Kurama explained as he stared at the screen, but then he was pulled from his analysis by the snort of the mini lord. "Was I incorrect?" he asked with a annoyed air.

"No, you were quite right in both accounts. In this image, the female is one among 862 horned demons of her level, which is mid A level in power." he explained before turning to once more stare at the image. A surprised noise came from the fire demon Hiei, though he would say nothing from the curious looks of his teammates, his face remained blank. "As Hiei has gathered, this girl was very much human less than five hours before this still life was taken." he elaborated with a grim look towards the screen.

"How the hell is that possible?" Yusuke asked ever curious.

"But…Lord Koenma, weren't they all sealed away into their human bodies eons ago?" Kurama asked, catching on rather quickly to the problem at hand.

"They all were. Every last one was either sealed away by force or willingly." he elaborated for them, though he seemed too deep in thought to realize the issue with what he'd just said for them. How the hell were they supposed to understand what was going on from what little he'd given them to go on?

"So…how'd this chick get herself all demon-ified and awaken the monster in her that was sealed away in her people 'eons ago'?" Kuwabara asked oblivious to the fact that everyone was wondering that exact same thing. (If you thought this would be a Kazuma bashing story, the poo is on you. I 3 Kazuma Kuwabara) It was obvious he didn't much care for the whole fear of appearing stupid thing, but then when the situation calls for it, that attitude is better than all others.

"It would seem that the demon wanted to awaken her, even went through all the trouble of researching and finding her. The questions are why, who, and how are we going to get them before they use this girl against us." he elaborated for them before making an 'ah-ha' sound and jumping from his seat to find something. Picking up the file, he flipped through it rather quickly to find what he was looking for. "Thus far the girl hasn't killed any fellow humans with her awakened powers, but she's killed the demon who awakened her and her cat doing no more than placing her hands on them." he explained with a wave of his hand, but left off the part about how she'd almost drained him unconscious without even trying. They did not need to know that…err, it would be better if they hadn't. With one look at Hiei, Koenma knew that he knew about the incident.

"So…we gonna kill her? Capture her? What?" Yusuke asked, ever impatient with his previous boss, but then Hiei let out a laugh.

"And get ourselves killed, detective? Don't be ridiculous." he grumbled, obviously annoyed with the entire situation was he stood off by himself.

"Yes, if it were so easy to kill them, the demon lords would've had them killed off back then. They steal energy, blood, power, anything their power deems desirable." Kurama went into short details as he seemed to ponder in his own memories. "Even an untrained one is difficult, if not more so because they can't restrain their power from stealing everything from a person." he explained for Yusuke and Kuwabara, but then turned his attention back to Koenma when he spoke up once more.

"That's all correct. The girl is going to be very difficult, especially if we don't get to her before she kills someone or worse-" he explained, but was cut off mid-sentence by Jorge who rushed in without warning. The ogre looked distressed.

"Sir, we have an emergency!" he said waving his arms in alarm.

"What is it you oaf?" Koenma asked glaring at the overdramatic demon.

"She's made her first kill and…" he tried to explained, but seemed almost afraid of what he was about to say next.

"Spit it out!"

"She's having a breakdown, sir. Botan went to try to talk to her, but the girl shoved her away. I don't know how Botan is doing-" Jorge started to ramble, but Koenma cut him off with a load slap on his desk and a stern look. Turning to the team, Koenma looked them over before nodding and pressing a button to show the girl as she was presently. Curled up by the window was the girl, staring at the dead boy on her bed. Across the room was Botan's crumbled form against the wall, but she appeared to be breathing. Waving his arm, Koenma opened a portal to outside the home of the girl. Without a word, the boys ran through the portal, which closed seconds later.

"So, it has begun."

XXXX BACK WITH ADEL BEFORE THE MESS XXXX

"What do you mean? What happened?" Adel asked blinking back tears as she stared at the dead cat on the back porch.

"I don't know, Addie! Little Yukie was already dead when I got home. I don't have a clue what happened." Adel's mother Ella explained angry that her daughter assumed she had something to do with what happened. Turning to say something, Ella softened at the sight of her upset daughter. Laying a hand on her daughter's shoulder, she said nothing as she gave it a squeeze. "I'm sorry, honey, I know how much Yukie meant to you."

"Oh mom," Adel said with tears now streaming down her face as she stared at her now dead cat. "I'm gonna go lay down…I just…I can't deal with this right now." she said with a forlorn expression. When her mom nodded, Adel took off upstairs and sprawled out on her bed. Burying her head in her pillow, she sobbed out the trouble of the day. After an hour or so, Adel sat up and went in her bathroom to fix her face up from the crying.

"…don't think now is the best time." Adel heard her mom say, but to who, she didn't know for sure. It was obvious the person wasn't giving up easily though.

"It'll just take a moment, Mrs. Blake. I promise not to take her away from her studying for too long." David's voice made it up to Adel, who quickly double checked her face before softly making her way down stairs.

"I don't-" Ella started with an obviously concerned ring to her voice, but was cut off.

"-think it'll be a problem, mom. I'm fine, and I have most of my homework down for tomorrow anyway." Adel said with a smile as she beamed at her crush. With one of his killer smiles, Adel gave her mom a pleading look.

"All right. Go upstairs and have your little talk, but don't be too long. You know how your dad feels about boys up in your room." Ella explained with a smile as she turned, letting the two have their privacy. Nodding to her mom, Adel waved David with her and walked with him up the stairs. Grinning at him as they took their seats on her bed, Adel got comfortable crossing her legs as she made to face him.

"So, David, what'd you come all the way to my house to talk to me about?" she asked with a playful smile. He did no more than smile.

"You might have heard the rumors going around about how I supposedly want to ask you out or something." he said with a curious smile. Adel nodded to this.

"Yeah, Beth told me about it, said Kyle told her." she elaborated it for him, but just tipped her head when he seemed to grow unsure of himself.

"Well, yes….So, would you?" he asked, but when Adel continued to stare at him as if he were speaking in another language. "Do you wanna go out…with me?" he asked as if this were his first time asking anyone out. Adel grinned madly in response.

"Yes, of course. Didn't you know that I had a crush on you?" she asked, but when his face went to utter surprise. "You can't tell me that you don't know half of our grade thinks you're the hottest thing since…I don't know, some famous model?" Adel asked looking at him as if he were insane for not knowing this already.

"Would I sound completely stupid if I said I didn't know?" he asked with a playful grin spreading across his face.

"Nope, but you'd sound as if you were lying," she insisted with a grin of her own.

"I really don't know what you're talking about" he insisted giving her a look that said he was going along with this because she started it.

"Yeah, I'm sure. I bet you just string those girls along for the sport of it." she accused playfully as she reached over and poked him on the chest.

"Oh really?" he asked, but leaned into her face as he did so.

"Really…" she said softly as she did something she didn't ever think she'd be able to do. Pushing against David, she pushed him onto the bed and she kissed him. He wrapped his arm around her waist and neck. Adel placed her hands on his chest as she groaned. Things were moving faster than she was ready for, that much she knew.

"A-Adel…?" David seemed to trail off as he stopped his trail of kisses down her neck and his hands from going up her shirt. Blinking, Adel leaned back to look at him, but was more than shocked to find his eyes rolling back as he fell back on her bed limp.

"David?" Adel said giving him a soft shake, but jerked her hand back as she noted she'd moved her hands to his neck. His shirt hand opened, which left her hands to touch the skin of his chest and neck. Placing her hand over his heart, on top of his shirt, she felt for his heart, but jumped back in shock. There was no heart beat.

"Adel Blake?" came a voice seemingly out of the no where. Turning around, Adel stared in shock at the woman walking away from her door. "It's okay, Miss Blake," the girl now noted as Botan said with a concerned look.

"Okay? He's dead, and I…" she trailed off as she looked at his body, but then gasped as she looked at her hands. There, in the place they were before, were the claw marks around her wrists. "I'm fucking glowing. How does that make anything okay?" she half growled out before taking a step backwards at her own voice.

"You just need to calm down. It wasn't your fault, Miss Blake." Botan said with an understanding smile as she took a step towards the girl. Coming up to stand within reaching distance of the girl, she made to reach out to pat her shoulder.

"No…DON'T TOUCH ME!" Adel screamed as she punched the girl in the face. It wasn't that she'd wanted to hurt the girl, just the opposite. With a thump the girl hit the wall and fell unconscious.

"What's going on up there? Is everything okay, Addie?" Ella's voice called up to her room, but Adel gasped at the sound. Clearing her throat, she refused to let her mom know what was going on. It just wouldn't help.

"Nothing mom! I-I just fell off the bed." she called, but only slid to sit in front of her window when she heard her mom start the dishes. Sobs racked her form as she tried to gather what had happened. What had she done?

/Woman. You need to calm down./ a voice said inside Adel's head, but she felt the brush with her mind before she heard it. Jerking up, she looked around in confusion.

/Who's there? What's going on? How did this happen? What. The. Hell./ she thought in her own extreme confusion.

/First, you need to calm yourself. Breathe slowly./ the voice said slowly, as if it were speaking to someone that it disliked. Doing as told, Adel tried to calm down her racing heart, but it didn't slow. She just kept thinking about the body on her bed, the girl on her floor, and all the explanations she'd have to make about something she didn't know.

/I can't do this. I can't do this. How do I explain to my mom how David died? What about this girl?/ sobs continued to rack her form as she thought all this.

/No explanation will need to be made. You're leaving this place./

/Leaving?/

/Yes, woman, you will be leaving, taken somewhere to learn how to control this power, and kept from hurting anyone else./

/oh…okay. What do I tell my mom?/ she thought back with an after thought of Koenma and his previous statement about helping her.

/Make something up, woman. I'm waiting outside with Koenma's detectives to take you to him./

/Okay…/ Adel trailed off as she got to her feet. Glancing at the girl's body, she rethought her previous agreement. /umm, what about the girl? I don't know her, she came out of no where. Does she work with Koenma too?/

/What color is the woman's hair?/

/umm…a blue color? Like ice blue?/

/Open your window./ Blinking for a moment, Adel turned to look at her window before gasping. Covering her mouth, she stopped a scream before nodded to the dark figure at her window. Walking over to it slowly, she unlatched the lock and opened it, stepping out of the person's way. Staring with wide, unsure eyes, she watched the man pick up the taller woman and carry her out.

/This…is so weird. Maybe….this guy is a demon?/ she thought staring after him, before leaving her window open and looking outside into the darkening night. There were three figured down there on her yard, the fourth joined them holding the woman.

/Is that a question, woman?/

/oh…uh, yeah. Are you a demon?/

/Yes. Now go./

/Right, demon. Thanks for being oh so kind./ she thought rather sarcastically as she fixed her face once again. Taking a deep breathe, Adel made her way down stairs before stopping at the kitchen.

"Addie, honey, where's your little friend?" her mom asked softly as she glanced behind Adel and up the stairs.

"Oh…he climbed out the window. Weird guy, huh? I mean, who climbs out windows?" she rambled with a bright smile. She heard a snort somewhere, but didn't make note of it as she shrugged to her mom's curious look.

"Okay, hon. Did you need something?" she asked obviously confused by her daughter's sudden appearance, especially with a visit from a boy being not that long before.

"I'm going to go to Beth's house for the night. We both have…dates this weekend, and we're gonna chat about it." Adel explained, but just to make things make more sense she elaborated. "I called Beth earlier, that's why I fell off my bed. You know me." she explained with a grin that felt more fake than anything.

"Oh, all right, but don't forget your tooth brush, dear." her mom said as she turned back to her stove with a happy little hum. With a tearful smile, Adel turned to grab a few things from her room.

/What're you waiting for, woman?/

/I'm just getting a few things. I can't leave. I just…I don't want to be without a few things. I'll just be a few more seconds./ Dumping her duffle bag out for camping, she stuffed everything she felt she may need in there before dropping it out the window. It didn't even hit the ground, someone caught it. Stuffing a few little things she'd need for a sleepover in her small suitcase, Adel sighed when she felt she was ready. Running down the stairs, she only stopped at the front door to call back.

"I'm going mom. Bye, love you!" she called before slamming the door behind her and walking towards the short figured that no longer held the woman.

"Adel Blake." came the voice of the person who was now holding the woman. Kurama stood there cradling Botan as he looked the Adel unsure how to approach the girl.

"So, this is the girl the toddler's got his diaper in a bunch over, right?" the one standing cockily off to the side asked. Yusuke wasn't much for keeping quiet when he didn't feel it was needed. The girl, after all, looked about as dangerous as a puppy.

"And you would be?" Adel asked feeling the drama of the evening begin to drain from her as she half snarled at the man before her. She could feel the heat from her wrists, but it was the glow in the air that told her she was doing something bad.

"Urameshi…I wouldn't mess with her. Her body's going all funky." Kuwabara said as he waved his arms in confusion at the fluctuation of energy around the girl. She looked like a fire ball ready to explode, but it was all pure energy.

/The detective knows nothing of your situation. Look at me./ Growling at herself, Adel blinked back the rage she felt, the tears welling up, and turned to look at the guy that she assumed was in her head. Sighing, she ran her fingers through her hair before taking a step towards the guy who appeared to be about to say something.

"I'm not even going to ask how you're in my head because that's by far the least weird thing that's happened to me." she said with a smile. The guy in front of her did no more than tip his head towards the guy holding the woman.

/He has something for you./ Nodding, Adel looked towards Kurama with a curious look in her eyes.

"Yes, this should stop your power a bit." Kurama said with a smile as he leaned the woman into one arm and pulling a pair of gloves from his pocket. Handing them over, she went to grab them from his hands themselves, but stopped mid-grab when her fingers touched his palm. Jerking back, she pulled the fingers of the gloves from mid-air to keep from touching him. Pulling them on, she looked unsurely at her hands. Would this work?

"Well, now that that little thing is out of the way, how's about we get her to Koenma so he can figured this stuff out." Yusuke said, obviously impatient with the whole situation.

/Is he always such an ass?/ Adel thought to her silent little friend as the others seemed to be talking over something.

/Hn./

/Figures not. Probably a lazy ass./ Glancing toward him at the snort, she was half surprised to see the smirk on his face. Looking back to the others, she was curious to find the taller two looking her way. Kuwabara looked confused and scared, while Kurama just looked curious. Blinking when a portal opened on the dark side of her yard, the side with no windows, Adel wasn't sure what to make of it.

"Walk through it, and you'll be at Koenma's office, Miss." the tall red headed one explained with a smile from beside her. Unconsciously, Adel moved away from him, but nodded regardless. Turning, she jumped right into the portal, not seeing the point in being all skittish. Why not? She'd already killed a demon, her cat, her boyfriend, and almost killed a girl who she didn't even know. All with some power she knew nothing about.

/Well, that was…normal./ she thought looking around the familiar office room, but then took her previous seat as if she'd been there a hundred time. Nodding her thanks to the tall short haired one for her bag, she sat it on the floor next to the couch along with her backpack. The others joined her in the room, returning to their usual standing position.

"Well, well, well." said a deep voice from Koenma's chair. As it turned, energy bars flew up to surround the guys and cage them in an oddly egg shaped container. "What do we have here?" said the obviously demonic man from the chair that quickly lost it's glamour, much like the entire room. Jumping up, Adel glared at the electric chair she'd just been lounging in. Kuwabara tested the bars, but only ended up with severely burned hands.

"What the hell's this about?" Yusuke yelled from his place inside the cage, but this response only proceeded to make the man at the desk laugh.

"What is this about you ask?" the demon asked as he continued to chuckle and walk leisurely around the other side of the cage, opposite from the side Adel was. "I'm after the little copy cat over there, of course. It-" he explained waving his hand lazily in her direction, but before he could continue he was cut off.

"Copy cat?" Adel asked cutting off the demon as she took a step towards him. The demon did nothing more than blink at her slight advance, but then suddenly he smiled a very creeper like smile as he took his own step towards her.

"They haven't told you." he stated rather than asked, but then clucked his tongue in shame of the men within the cage. "For shame, gentlemen. Leaving a woman without the knowledge of even what she is." he said in a patronizing tone, but then turned that creeper smile back on Adel.

"Well…I could've figured it out, you know." she said angrily, but just glared at the man to show her anger. This was not how her dramatic day was supposed to go.

"Of course not, kitty. A little girl raised as a human couldn't very well grasp anything to do with demons." he patronized her as he continued his small walk towards her, ignoring the guys as they attempted to find a way out. A snarl could be heard from the room, Adel lowered her eyes to the ground as she started to lose her temper. Hadn't she gone through enough in one day? "Oh, did I make the weak, little kitty mad? Well, tough luck. Get over it, cuz life is about to get a hell of a lot more difficult for…" the demon ranted, but halted his statement when Adel's body began to transform into a female horned demon.

"Weak, little kitty, am I?" Adel snarled out as she raised her pure white eyes up to glare at the demon before her. Suddenly blood red pupils appeared in her eyes as she continued to growl at the thing in front of her with all the anger of the day. Flexing her nails out, she didn't note the fact that her transformation had destroyed her gloves and shoes, but both fell from her as she took a territorial step forward.

"Well…Not quite so weak, I see." the demon said as he continued to stare at her in slight wonder. Clearing his throat, he shrugged and turned dark red eyes on her. "Let's see how well you handle…this!" he yelled as he shot an energy beam at her that was quite like the beams holding the guys in their cage. Raising her hands to block the blow as instinct told her to, Adel felt the warm sensation flow quickly through her entire body. Grunting, Adel realized too late that the energy was too much too quickly. A yelp escaped her as she reverted back to her human form and did her best to hold strong.

/Hold on. The cage is getting weaker./

/I'm trying…this isn't…as easy as the movies make it out to be./

/Humans make everything appear easier than it is./

/Yeah…/

/Just a few more-/

/I don't…I can't!/

Adel fell to one knee at that moment, but it was the gasping that gave way to the fact that she wouldn't last much longer. A whimper could be heard over the sound of the energy beam, but this only made the guys work harder to get out.

/Try something. Do you feel the energy flowing towards you?/

/Yeah…How does that-/

/Try to reverse it. Send it back to him, all at once./

"Hey, demon," Adel said as she got to her feet. The demon looked towards her face uncertain, but then balked slightly when he felt what she was doing. Feeling the flow of warmth going through her, she pushed it back out. Forcing it to go in the opposite direction of it's flow, she closed her eyes in fear as a white energy beam flew from her hands straight at the demon. "Boo." she grunted as she clenched her eyes shut.

"Not this time." the demon called from no where in the room. Looking up, Adel realized the demon in front of her hadn't been really there, but she simply flopped back on the ground. "I'll get my little copy cat. Be prepared." he called, voice echoing through out the room. The boys finally were free, the bars fell when the demon left completely.

"No. No way in hell. I am not watching after this girl." Yusuke grunted as he sulked off to the side. Kuwabara was right on his ass.

"Come on, Urameshi! We can't leave a girl to fend for herself! Not from all of demon world!" he fought as he waved his arms dramatically.

"Perhaps making hasty judgments about this girl isn't such an intelligent move." Kurama put in his own two cents, but neither of the boys were listening by that point as they'd started a fist fight. Rolling his eyes, Hiei muttered about humans as he followed Kurama over to the girl, still carrying the unconscious Botan.

/Not bad, woman./

"Not quite a compliment, but thanks anyway." Adel spoke out loud as she glanced towards the shorter demon.

"Hn." Hiei grunted as he crossed his arms and looked away from them all, as if dismissing them. It was obvious talking wasn't his strong point.

"Your social skills astound me. Though, I can't say mine are much better, so…" she trailed off as she folded her hands on her lap sitting up.

"It may be best if we wait for Botan to awaken before we go." Kurama stated as way of explaining why they hadn't left yet. Though when she continued to stare at him with her hands folded, he finally understood her gaze. "Ah. My name is Kurama." he introduced himself, but made a point of not offering his hand as he usually did.

"Thanks, and as you all must know by now, my name's Adel Blake." she explained, but then got a curious look to her eye as she looked at Kurama. "Has anyone ever called you Rama?" she asked obviously purely curious.

"Eh, no, you would be the first." he said, but then also got a curious look to him as he took in her features. "You're American, right?"

"Yup, born and raised there."

"How is it that you can speak Japanese so fluently?"

"Oh, well, I spend quite a few of my summers in Japan with my great-aunt."

"That's ironic because that's more than likely where you'll end up training, in Japan."

"Well, that's awesome. That's about as awesome as a triple scoop ice cream cone dipped in hot fudge."

"What about ice cream?" Yusuke asked as he finally joined the conversation, leaving a slightly beat up Kuwabara on the ground not that far away.

"My luck is about as good as ice cream." she explained.

"Well, that sure didn't seem like ice cream worthy luck a few minutes ago."

"I had it under control."

"Sure didn't look that way to me. You looked like you were about to have your ass beat and handed to you."

"So not."

"I'm almost positive."

"No."

"Yeah."

"No."

"I'm so right, and you-"

"-Look I saved your ass, didn't I?"

"…."

"That's what I thought."

"Yeah!" Kuwabara said finally joining in on the little conversation. Noting the closeness of the group getting to her, Adel scooted away before she stood up.

"Well, I know Kurama, Botan, and that your last name is Urameshi." she stated looking at the three guys expectantly.

/My name is Hiei./ right away came the voice now known as Hiei.

"And I know Hiei's name, but then you're all probably familiar with the mind reading thing he does." she waved it off as if everyone could do it, but the others were mostly surprised by how easily Hiei was talking to the girl before them.

"Uhh, yeah…the name's Yusuke Urameshi." Yusuke introduced, but then just smirked at the girl before them.

"And I'm the great Kazuma Kuwabara!" he introduced excitedly. Most everyone was surprised by the smile this produced from Adel, but then they really didn't know that much about her. Only Hiei seemed to find this amusing.

"You remind me of those old, old superman movies, Kazuma! That's so cute!" she giggled over it as she imagined Kazuma in a superman outfit. Cringing at the tights, she broke into laughter before being joined by a snort from Hiei.

"Superman? The super hero character made in America? Awesome!" Kazuma exclaimed as threw his fist up in the air in victory. A groan cut off all the noise quickly as all eyes turned towards Botan's stirring form.

"Owie." she whimpered as she rubbed her nose.

"Sorry." Adel chimed in. Botan jerked up to look at the girl standing sheepishly before her, but just smiled happily as she jumped easily from Kurama's arms.

"Oh my! Are you doing all right? I'm so sorry I frightened you, I was just trying to help, but then I must've freaked you out. A girl coming out of no where isn't normal, but then I had to figure out how to calm you down. But still, I'm really sorry!" Botan rambled on for a few good seconds, but as she was finishing Adel just grinned.

"Well….aren't you a talkative one." she stated with a grin, but then just shrugged as she glanced around the room in question.

"Yo, Botan. Can you get us a portal back to the toddler?" Yusuke asked impatiently.

"Oh! Yes, of course, coming right up!" she exclaimed joyfully as she waved her arm and a portal opened for them. Adel once more was the first to walk in, but once she did, she turned around in shock. She'd left her bags. Blinking in surprise, she found that Kazuma had grabbed them for her. How sweet.

"Finally! What happened back there? I opened a portal for you guys, waited twenty minutes, and no one came!" Koenma prattled on in a slight panic, but then he'd not seen Miss Adel Blake just yet. Adel just so happened to be standing behind Kurama and Hiei. "Don't tell me you lost her. Oh god. Father is going to have my ass for this. Oh no, not one thousand-" he began to prattle on and on, but then Adel cut in coming out.

"Easy there, LK….err." she said with a smile before staring down in slight confusion at the mini lord who'd latched on to her waist.

"Oh thank the lord!" he said as he cuddled her a bit, but then he suddenly seemed to realize what he was doing. Jerking back, he looked to make sure neither of her hands were near him before sighing and going back to his seat.

/Rude much. Lack of control is totally a good reason to act like I'm a freaking walking plague….Ass-wipe./

/Plague is an understatement, woman. You're a walking touch of death./

"Anyway, LK, what exactly am I called?" Adel asked taking a step towards Koenma's desk crossing her arms as she did so.

"Before I answer that, what's this nickname you have for me? LK?"

"Oh, well, I guess that isn't too obvious, is it?" Adel asked tipping her head. Shrugging, she decided not to say what it meant. "We'll leave that up to your all powerfulness to figure out, then, won't we?" she answered with a question of her own.

"Well, regardless…Your species is called…"

Sorry for the cliff hanger, but I personally enjoy these sorts of things. It makes the story a bit more interesting, ne? Well, now that we have the chapter over, I have two things I want the readers to review and vote about. Tell me who you think her great-aunt should be? Genkai maybe? Shiori? Another OC? And another thing is do you guys like the whole dream thing I had going? If not then I can try to do it another way. Let me know ;3 As always, thanks for reading!
