"I got a spring caught on my arm when I was cleaning out Yuske's room." I spat out.
Smooth… Real Smooth Moon… They're totally going to believe that one…
They looked at me like I was crazy.
Crazy works! Crazy is really good! Believe the crazy person…
Then Kuwabara started laughing.
Scratch that I'm not crazy He is…
"You have got to be kidding!!" He yelled making my head pound. "You got us all worried about THAT?!?" He bellowed laughing harder.
"Shut up Kuwabara!! Yelled another girl coming into the room.
What's with all the crazy screaming people?!?
"That wound is deep! I can't believe your laughing at the poor girl!"
I stared at her. "Um who are you?" I asked.
Ask a stupid question…
"Oh! I'm Keiko. Botan and I are going to stay with you 'til you're better."
Get a stupid answer…Sigh…
I just nodded, the barest of movement of my head, and tried to move.
Why can't I move?
Then I noticed Kurama sitting on my legs.
"Um Kurama, can you get off my legs?"
Kurama blushed heavily and stood up.
At least someone around here is nice still got to thank him one of these days…
Botan yipped.
Yip? How the hell does one yip?
"Koenma wants to see Moon!" She told the group.
"Who's Koenma?" I asked.
"The ruler of the spirit world." Yuske answered.
"King Enma's gone?!?" I exclaimed.
They all just gape at me like I'd grown a second head.
Hell maybe I had, no time to find out though.
Note to self; Ask about growth of second head on return home.
"Out of my room so I can change!" I said shoving everyone out. I quickly grabbed a long flowing black skirt and a long sleeve blue shirt. I started to walk outside when I noticed myself in the mirror.I looked really pale and I was shaking slightly.
Hey at least I was standing I think I get ten brownie points for that one.I took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. I had stopped shaking, but I still looked pale.
Oh well Skin complexion isn't my number one priority at the moment… Moving without falling is…
I heard people talking outside my door.
Time for some good old-fashioned ease dropping!
"You like her, don't you Kurama?" I heard one of the guys say.
It was Hiei. Had to be, it had his 'I am a cocky bastard so kiss my ass' tone to it.
"Not really. At least not in the way you're thinking, Hiei." Kurama said, "Besides you still like her."
I heard a slam against the wall.
They break something they better fix it or pay the consequences…
"Don't EVER say that!! Don't you EVER say that again!! I hate her!! She's a weakling, a pathetic wimp!!" Hiei yelled at Kurama.
Did I say a cocky bastard? I meant a dip shit that has no brains
"well that's great!! Yell right by her door!!! How about you yell a little bit louder?!? I don't think she heard you!!!" I heard Botan yell.
Botan one Hiei zero!
"She waited twelve years for you! You're the only memories she has!! You're such an ass!!!" Keiko yelled as well.
Scratch that Girls two… Hiei still zero.
"Apologize to her!!" The girls yelled together.
Girls three. Hiei… still… nil…
With that I slammed the door open hitting Hiei in the back, knocking him to the ground.
I didn't even look at him; I just stepped over his back and walked over to Botan.
"Can we go?" I snapped still not looking at Hiei.
Hiei got up and went to hit me, but I grabbed his arm from behind and threw him over me to the floor, shoving my knee into his chest.
"Don't TOUCH me!" I screamed as tears of pain and anger welled up in my eyes.
I will not cry I will not cry…
I slowly made my way to the stairs, and walked down them carefully to Yuske and Kuwabara.
"Oh Moon…" Yuske starts.
"What?" I snapped eyeing him.
"You're uh… you're really pale and you're shaking." He said moving away from me.
I just shrugged. "Can we go now?" I asked sounding a little exasperated.
Kurama grabbed my hand and told me to close my eyes.
Not in the mood to fight so…
I shrugged and closed them. A bright light flashed, and then Kurama told me to open my eyes, so I did.
See? I can be nice…Sometimes…
I looked up at an extremely high desk only to see a toddler sitting in a chair in front of us. All of the sudden it just clicked.
"Hey Koenma. How old are you? Over 700 years old?" I asked smugly.
"GAH! Moon!!" Koenma gasped hiding behind the desk.
"Yeah it's me…" I said with a nonchalant shrug.
"So what did you want with me?"
"First I want everyone out!" Koenma said.
Everyone left grumbling except for me.
Gee don't I just feel all warm and fuzzy inside?
"Second how are you feeling?" Koenma asked eyeing me nervously.
"Oh I'm pale and dizzy. I have a headache the size of the U.S. but I'm perfectly FINE!" I said through gritted teeth.
"Th-that's good… I-I mean…" Koenma stuttered.
"Well where's your father?" I asked now getting curious.
"Oh he's still here…"
"That's good, can we get to the point of WHY I am here?" I snapped I wanted a chair…
"Well you know you're a demon, right?"
I nodded. "Well you're not"
"WHAT?!?" I yelled.
Chair? Who needed a chair? I was just going to smash it against his desk anyway!
"Please keep your voice down" Koenma begged.
I calmed down by counting backwards from ten and he continued.
"Your parents weren't demons, they were gods."
"So I'm a goddess??" I said sounding doubtful.
Koenma nodded and continued, obviously not hearing the doubt in my voice.
"You can already create balls of solar energy, but you can also control the sun. When you are angry, you can heat up the sun, and point it at anyone you want, kind of like a magnifying glass"
Oh I SO know who I'm using that on!
"You can also make the sun cold when you become depressed. You may also control the clouds; you can ride on them, though we aren't totally sure… You also have a spirit guardian… We think…"
I nodded and waited for more Maybe some more I could use against a dick I knew
"Well…?" I said
"Oh! Well that is also not your real form you look more like Yoko—" Koenma started.
"Yoko Kurama!?!?" I yelled.
"Why yes you know him?"
"He was like family to me… he was with me when I was ten but three years later he vanished…" I said softly.
"I wish he stayed... I really needed him then…"
"Well you're not a fox like Yoko, but you're a sphinx. The sphinx is the cat of the sun if you didn't know."
I nodded coming out of my thoughts.
"I want you to train with the gang, until you can tap into your hidden powers. You may even be a healer. We're completely at a loss of what powers you will grow into; there isn't anyone else alive that is the same as you. I just want to be certain of your powers…" Koenma stated
I nodded and headed to the door.
I swung the door open and it hit Botan, who hit Keiko, who hit Yuske, who hit Kuwabara, who hit Kurama, who finally hit Hiei.
They all fell to the floor.
"Dominos…" I snickered stepping around them.
"Get off me!!" Hiei yelled from the bottom of the pile.
They all stood up.
Scratch that… They're Robots…
"Let me guess you were worried"
Kurama blushed. "Yeah we were"
"Even Hiei?" I asked eyeing him.
Hiei didn't say anything.
FINE! let him be a dick!!
I ran off towards the exit.
When I stopped to catch my breath, there was a door to the right of the front door.
"The Lost memories are hidden in there" I muttered in a trance and started to head to the door. As I reached for the handle I felt someone grab me and pull me outside.
I kicked and struggled. I hoped I kicked out their knee.
"My memories!!" I screamed and spun around to see Hiei holding me.
I blushed slightly, but I was still upset, so I slapped him instead.He didn't move.
"I could have had them back Hiei! I could have had Jenny, Mom and Dad back they were in there I was so close! I want to remember them! I want…" I started to cry, "I can't believe how close I came…" the sky outside started to darken.
Hiei looked around startled when I started to cry. He slowly put his arms around me and patted my back softly, he held me against him."I didn't know it hurt so much… I thought you did it to ease the pain… please don't cry here…" he said as he pulled out the small statue of the dragon that had broken yesterday.
Hiei cares? That's not something you see every day.
"You fixed it…" I said slowly taking the statue and looking up at him. I looked up at the sky and closed my eyes, thinking about how happy he made me; it started to brighten up again. I opened my eyes to look straight into a confused Hiei.
"What?" I asked.
Botan held out her compact.I took it and looked at myself.
"Ach!" I yelped. I had small gold and black tipped sphinx ears on top of my head, and no human ears. I looked behind me and saw a gold sphinx tail with a black tip.
"Oh…" I said and passed out.
I slowly open my eyes hearing someone breathing next to me.
I really need to stop this passing out thing.
I looked over and see Hiei sleeping on the floor in my room. I smiled in spite of myself and gently touched his face.
He's like an angel.
I looked at the clock. It said 3:50 am. No one's going to be up right now.
Suddenly I remembered the door of Lost Memories. I quickly got up and stepped around Hiei and went into my closet.
As I changed into a long sleeve purple dress I looked over at Hiei.
'Hiei looks so cute when he's sleeping I wish he'd stay with me forever' I thought to myself
I came out and walked to the window to jump out to go back when I remembered what my mother once said…
"You must always master your hidden arts before returning memories to the one you love"
…Why the sudden act of consciousness? I'll never know…
