-1Author's Note: I know some of you are not going to understand the beginning of this chapter! So, I will take the time to explain here, and if you don't understand what I mean then say so in the review!

At the ending of the last chapter I made it appear as if the ending really happened. It was nothing but a dream after she read her poem, and where Kurama along with everybody trying to figure out what the poem meant. After that, it was all a dream or something in that type of order.

My Apologies;

Also, I would like to say sorry for the wait and also for the rush of the last chapter! I will try to be better about making my chapters!

Story:

Rei woke up to some pink, worried, torn down eyes looking at her… they belonged to Rini. Rei was surprised that she looked so worried and was taken aback by it. What even more surprised was that she was in bed in the same clothes that she had worn to he poetry reading. She could've sworn that she had changed into her pajama and saw Inuyasha and Miroku speaking abut Naraku! Then it hit her, her face became full of excitement as she shifted out of bed and landed on her feet and stood proudly, saying:" Ooh Rini… I can't wait to tell you this, I know of the whereabouts of the man who killed your mother; I believe Inuyasha and Miroku are after the same man!" Rei's face was glowing with excitement and it slowly became back to where it was, before. She looked at Rini and Rini seemed to be in disbelief of what she said and actually afraid. So, Rei continued on to say: "Rini, don't worry… I won't have the same fate as your mother… I will avenge her and she will be back like what always happens!" Rei said with a fake smile!

Rini was dumbfounded by Rei's comments; she looked like she thought Rei had gone crazy. Rini shook her head and said in a quiet voice," No, Rei, that's not the problem! That would be impossible or you to have overheard Miroku and Inuyasha because you have been unconscious for the last week every since your poetry reading!" Rini put her head low and took a deep breath as she looked back into Rei's eyes who looked as confused as she did earlier.

"Huh… unconscious… what chu talking about, Willis!" Rei said trying to make Rini feel better. Rei, then, stopped and looked into the young girl's eyes and said:" Couldn't I have heard it last night?"

Rini shook her head and mumbled under her breath," I was in here watching you along with Inuyasha to make sure you were okay!"

Rei was now deeply confused about what happened.. .t seemed so real. Rei's eyes were asking Rini to tell her what happened since Rei couldn't find the words for it to come out!

Rini looked at her in away showing her that she was remembering it and said:" This is what happened! Everybody was clapping for you though I think I was the only one that understood your poem. Everything seemed all normal… you were smiling, and Kagome decided that she'll take you out to go eat. Kagome was paying for all of us. You asked for something and got the meal but it wasn't the way you wanted. We were at a outside restaurant, but we were the only people, thank god! You looked at your burger and your eyes seemed to become angry…. I thought you were going crazy! You yelled at Kagome, saying' How could you?' I was starting to get worried… I thought you were mad because they gave you a veggie burger! You stood up with your shoulder shaking and your face red with anger, and then you turned over the table and jumped at Kagome! Your eyes became almost transparent with no emotion during this time. You called her a man named 'Naraku,' which I thought must've been someone who works for your father or you were cussing her out in some other language! Kagome got up quickly but you punched her right in the face saying 'you will pay for this.' I was saying to myself ' all this for food, and you called my mom greedy! She already said she was paying for us!' Kagome managed to escape you for a second but your rampage didn't stop, you looked at me with the greatest amount hatred I ever saw you look at me with!" Rini stopped for a second because she needed to take a breath and drank some water from a glass that she had near her on a desk near Rei where she was at and continued," You called me 'Kanna '(A/N: Is that the girl's name with the mirror in her hand? Please tell me in the review!) and you were about to pull out an ofuda to use on me… before you could do anything, Sango came and pushed down to the ground. You growled and said,' Kagura, you were always the one to hide in the wind!' You slapped her right in her face and then kicked her in the stomach. You looked away and I was with Sota; we were afraid that you were going to attack us. Finally, some sympathy came to your eyes as tears crowded your eyes and your eyesight! It was then that I realized what was going on with you because you called me and him 'Princess Serenity and Prince Endyimon,' the name of my parents. You were stuck in the time when my parents were being killed! At that moment, Sango burrowed some rope from the restaurant and tied you to restrain you from causing anymore harm. Sango put you in Kagome's new car while she paid for the food! While in the car, we came across a red light and when you saw the light, you screamed and exclaimed, " No! NO! How could you?…. Why Did you?… Eternal Sailor Moon, no, you can't die!' and then you gave an evil glare to Kagome and yelled in her face, saying: ' Naraku, you will pay! You understand that… I will avenge her and you will be the one crying and begging for mercy… you understand that!' You, then, became unconscious after saying those horrific words!" Rini said in a trembling voice. Rini trembled as tears fell down and went on to vent out through the tears: "I thought for a moment you were going crazy or even worse I lost you like I lost mommy! I realized that when you said her name what was going, your mind took you back to when she died! You have been in this bed for the last 10 days!"

Rei held on to the girl who was crying terrible and trembling. She felt so bad for the girl; she knew exactly what it was like to lose a mother, and never imagined Rini would have to go through the same pain that she went through after her mother died. Rei cried with Rini knowing that if she had died then Rini would've basically lost everything. She looked at her and tried to be comforting with a smile that they would make it through, together.

Rei smiled and held the girl's chin up and said:" It will be alright, ya hear? I actually, don't think she is dead and everything will be alright!"

Rini looked bewildered and questioned her:" Huh? How can you say that, you were the one that said she was… dead?

Rei tried to smiled and forced this one and proclaimed:" Do you remember our battle with Galaxia? Do you remember when Darien, your father, was killed by having his star seed taken away, what happened to you?"

"I was slowly becoming non-existent… so, what does this have to do with Serena?" Rini uttered trying to forget the memory.

"If Serena was dead, then the same thing would happening right now, wouldn't it? Besides, I think after the Poetry reading, I had a vision about Miroku and Inuyasha. I can't be too sure after coming from that place, then I could've been thinking about her and was hoping someone would know anything about the man who killed your mother, my princess and best friend…" Rei gasped with a slight unsure smile. Before, I put this girl's hope's up…. I will speak to Inuyasha and Miroku. Rei put her hand on her chin and began to think real hard while hoping that she was right, it was a vision.

"Wait! So… a man named Naraku killed my mother? You say she might not be dead though because I'm not slowly ding out of existence… Rei, when you find Naraku… you have to take me, I will show him a piece of my mind! I'll show him not to mess with my family and friends!" Rini yelled in an angry voice and sounding a little too overconfident.

Rei, noticing this, stopped her before went any further. " NO! No! NO! I will not allow you into battle… with… with… that youma. You will only be a distraction and besides, if something drastic happens, I will need you as back! He is not weak at all, nor is he invincible, though! He knows how to toy with peoples emotions and have them believe something that is untrue. He would love for me to bring you so that he could either turn you against me or watch you suffer!" Rei said with authority as she shook her head all over the place causing hair to fly everywhere! Rei promised Serena before this ever happened that she will protect Rini no matter what!

Rei calmed down and looked at the clock and realized it was time for her to go to school. It was 4:45 and school starts at 5:00 and classed start at 5:15. She was going to be late. She hadn't been there for that long, and she was already pulling a Serena. She already missed 10 days and was late upon returning, she felt terrible even if the 10 days were not her fault.

Sarayashiki High

5:45 - 6:00

It was 5:45 and Rei was 30 minutes late. Rei ran to the front of the school and the school gates were locked and then noticed that Yusuke was with Keiko in front of the gate. Keiko turned to Rei with a surprised look of glee to see her there, for some odd reason. Rei was babbled to why such a good girl like Keiko didn't care that they couldn't get in, Rei then asked:" Keiko, why aren't you caring you can get into the school, eh?"

Keiko frowned in return and exclaimed," Huh? Why would I want to go in the school, right now?" Her voice sounded perplexed and her face looked it; Yusuke had the same face on him.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Rei, oh, you don't know?" Yusuke questioned with an eyebrow going up. He then motioned for Keiko to talk instead f him.

Keiko put her hand over her hip while using the other to cover over her mouth while yawning. She smiled and while holding up peace sigh saying," It's Sunday!" An anime sweat drop appeared on the back of Rei's head while Yusuke fell down anime style, while he still had a anime sweat drop on his face. She then looked at Yusuke and realized why he did what he did and no longer smiled but frowned while her eyes tried to remember something and she then broadcast what was supposed to be said:" Oh, yeah, that! On Monday, when school resumes because it hasn't every since the day after your Poetry reading, we will not be meeting her for school… We will be meeting at Meiou High School, the same school Kur--, I mean Shuichi goes to. Anyways, we won't be going her because there was a fire that wiped away most of the inside of the building; some reason it never burned or harmed anything outside the building."

Rei felt embarrassed because she didn't bother doing the math since she was knocked for 10 days, it would've obviously ended up on being Sunday!

She started to walk away and noticed the beauty of nature. The Sakura (Cherry) Trees were full in bloom and the wind was carrying the blossoms from the trees with it. It mad the scene before beautiful. She sensed a powerful energy watching her but ignored it. She looked up at the tree above and could've sworn she saw somebody watching her. She looked up again and saw a mother bird come and start to feed her babies and Rei thought that maybe it was just the bird. There were some birds on the tree in front of her and they seemed to be singing 'Rockin' Robin' by the Jackson 5. She looked to her side and saw a mother with a carriage and a 7 year old next to her laughing at something he found obviously funny. The more she looked, the more beautiful things she saw. Out of all the most beautiful things she was a boy named Kurama. She couldn't take her eyes off of him once they found him.

She guessed he was just working out since he had a wife beater on and was wearing sweats. His shirt was sweating from working out and a towel was over his neck .he was in the park and he seemed to be in a bad mood, which was very uncommon for him. He took off his shirt and started to walk over to the water fountain. Rei kept on walking though not able to take her off of him.

He walked from that spot and she couldn't find him no more and she was glad not to because he was distracting her attention. The next thing she knew, she ran right into the boy who she was staring at before. Kurama grinned when he saw her and helped her up while saying," I'm sorry, how clumsy of to bump into you!" Rei didn't like the fact that he tried to help her up and became infuriated at his kindness and felt like he was trying to act like she could help herself.

" I could've helped myself up," Rei stated angrily.

"Well then, you shouldn't have accepted my help" Kurama stated calmly. He then remembered what type of girl she was when he knew her: the type that never said sorry. He then continued," It's okay!"

"What!"

"It's okay that you weren't paying attention when you and I bumped" Kurama stated plainly, not realizing his mistake. He didn't realize that this would start an argument.

"You were the one not paying attention!" Rei angrily yelled.

"Why are you yelling?" Kurama, once again, said calmly while wiping his arms and chest of the sweat that was on his upper body.

"What are you talking about.. You are the on assuming that I'm the one at fault! I'm not screaming! You guys are al the same!" Rei yelled out again and adding the last part grimly. Then she calmed down and said:" You might start nice at the beginning, but the older every man gets, the more ignorant they all get!"

Those words finally struck something in Kurama that made him angry," How do you call anyone ignorant when you just said that! People were right about you; you do think you are better than people. You think that everyone has to apologize to you but you never have to apologize to them." He stopped and continued:" So that's why that little girl said you don't like talking to any guys, even just to be friends because you think they are all ignorant! You know what… nobody needs you… you… you.. Ignorant bitch!" Kurama didn't mean to say those words they just came out. He didn't even mean it but he knew that was what would hurt feeling the most, though he didn't even want to do that.

Rei was so furious yet hurt at the same time. How could he say that about me? He doesn't even know me! So, that's what people think about me? Rei wanted to walk away, but he turned on the fire inside of her. She was about to punch him until out of nowhere Hiei came and did something way out of his character. He started to apologize to her about Kurama and told her that he didn't mean one word he said.

Kurama was in deep surprise at his usually cold friend. Not only did he say those things, but he grew. He must've had a growth spurt. For some odd reason, he didn't look any skinnier either. He looked about as tall as Yusuke. I guess some people really do grow later than others!

Rei looked at Hiei and was deeply surprised that a guy would do that for their surprised and smiled while a blush appeared on her cheeks, which caused Hiei to blush slightly. He had never felt like this around a girl, especially not around somebody that he had barely knew. Kurama saw the blush that Rei gave and began to get jealous.

Keiko and Yusuke were watching the whole time with wide eyes…. This has never happened before!

Kurama walked away and avoided eye contact with his partner in crime, Hiei. Hiei didn't follow him, instead, he was talking to the beautiful priest Rei Hino. Why is Hiei acting this way? Doesn't he know she's just an ordinary human girl, the type of person he hates the most!

Kurama felt bad for what had happened and also he happened to think the girl was really pretty. He talked to his mother what he should get a girl if he was sorry and also wanted to take her somewhere to prove that he was sorry. She told him to go get the girl some chocolate and roses.

He did just as his mother said to do.

Market Place

3:00pm - 6:00 pm

He was about to walk out the flower shop and noticed Botan was right outside of the shop. He smiled when he saw her and decided to sneak up behind her. He walked slowly up to her with a grin and put his hands over her eyes and said:" Guess who?"

Botan giggled when he did that and smiled sweetly before she turned around to see him. She blushed when she looked into his eyes… he was one of the few guys that could do that. Only him and Hiei were able to do that to her. He put his face close to her to kiss it and she returned the favor and kissed him on the lips. She then smiled and said:" Kurama, as much as I wish I did, I didn't come to get close to you… I came here on a mission. …" before she could finish her thought Kurama kissed her again. She, then, noticed the flowers in his hands and the chocolate and a card with a teddy bear. She became ecstatic.

"Ugh… Oh, I'm sorry Botan… I got this for someone else. Don't worry, it's just for an apology to the girl, that's all!" Kurama stated nervously.

Botan looked at him and forced a smile," Well, I trust you! You wouldn't be doing because you think someone is pretty!" She, at once, grabbed the card, because he had already written in it and she noticed it was to a girl named Rei Hino. Now, why does that name sound familiar? For a second of thinking, a beautiful picture appeared in her head. It angered her, that was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen.

Kagome's house

6:00pm-9:00pm

Rini frowned as she saw Sota getting all giddy around his girlfriend. His girlfriends came over to do homework, or so she says. Rini knew why it was because she was angry that he was spending a lot of time with her instead of his girlfriend.

(A/N: I do not know Sota's girlfriend's name so I'll just call her Emerald, so when you review could you please tell me so I could use it for future references)

Emerald smiled cutely at her boyfriend and start whispering while glaring at Rini. Sota looked a little embarrassed while laughing softly at what she said. He looked at Rini and noticed that she felt uncomfortable.

Emerald noticing the jealously coming form Rini at once sparked up and said to Sota in a innocent voice:" Oh dear, Sota, it's getting late! I have to go home… you wouldn't mind walking me home, now, would you?" Sota turned crimson in the face and started fiddling with his homework.

Sota helped her put her homework in her backpack while still blushing. Never before had she ever asked him that! Rini seeing his blush made her just angry and she walked out with her feeling hurt. She didn't understand why she seemed to get so jealous when other were around Sota. She didn't like him, did she? NO WAY! Why would she like Sota?

Sota walked off with his girlfriend and before leaving, he waved to her, saying:" Bye! Ill see you later! Be right back!" Just as they were about to leave, Emerald put her hand in his and walked out.

Shippo walked in there as soon as they left. He walked to Rini and noticed that she looked upset like the same way Kagome looks when Inuyasha goes after Kikyo. He knew it was about Sota but something in him told him to act like he didn't know it was about that. Something in him also knew that he also liked Rini and didn't want Sota to have her, especially because he already has a girlfriend.

Rini slightly smiled at him, which caused him to blush. He couldn't believe how beautiful he thought she was when she smiled. The moment Shippo was about to talk to her, Rei came in with a smile on her face.

Rei noticed Shippo and smiled while asking: " Do you know where Miroku and Inuyasha is at?"

Shippo just pointed to the backyard.

Rei walked out there and as soon as she came out the stopped speaking and got real nervous. Inuyasha slightly blushed as he saw her walk past him and looked in his eyes with her amethyst eyes shining beauty. Miroku didn't know what to say; he was speechless for the first time in his life. He couldn't even try to flirt; her beauty would make a man feel like a child.

She was about to ask them about Naraku, until she saw Kurama looking nervous walking over to her from the back yard holding something!
