A/N-OMG I have a review! Thank you so much Mango-sama! I'm working on making the chapters longer... But I'm working on Chapter Fourteen right now...After Chapter 12 I think that they get, like, twice as long, so for right now, just hold on, pretty please! Anyway, please review! It makes me write faster!(Wow, I use a lot of exclamation marks...)
Chapter Three
Kurama's POV
The picture made no sense. She looked so much like me. . . A family relative maybe? No, I had no other family that I knew of. Pure coincidence? Not possible. The probability was far too low. I kept twisting my brain as Hiei, Yusuke, Kuwabara, and I walked to the warehouse.
"You okay?" Yusuke asked, falling back to where I walked at the back of the group.
"Yes," I replied. "Just slightly shaken."
"The picture?"
"Yes."
Our conversation ended there as Yusuke headed back to the front of the group. Hiei sent me worried glances, but did not question me, for which I was thankful. We soon arrived to the warehouse. The outside was covered in vines and such, with holes decorating the outside.
"Ready?" Yusuke asked.
We all nodded and we walked into the door, which was broken and burned. Holes covered the roof and walls, and burn marks covered the walls as well. The floor was broken into pieces. A burned bed was hidden back in a corner with a ladder nearby that led to the roof.
"Any ideas of where she is?" questioned Kuwabara, looking around. It was strange. I felt no energy, Spirit or Demon.
"She must of moved on," commented Yusuke.
"I have done nothing of the such," came a voice. Something fell from the sky in the middle of our group, resulting in all of us splitting in different directions. A good tactical move, yet slightly bad for our attacker. She had just surrounded herself.
We hurriedly scrambled to our feet as the dust from her landing cleared. The girl from the picture stood in the middle, a smile creeping at her lips. A black dress hung to her ankles. A slit ran on the right side, where you could see red pants. Red hair flowed around her shoulders and emerald green eyes analyzed the group, focusing on Hiei for a moment longer than the two humans. Last her eyes fell on me, where they stayed until she spoke.
"My name is Kana. It is nice to make your acquaintance," said the girl. She then turned to Hiei. "Hello Hiei."
"Hn," was what he replied. Normally, I would've smiled, but now, that was not at the top of my list of things to do.
"You know her?" demanded Yusuke.
"Unfortunately, yes," Hiei replied, staring at Kana.
"Unfortunately? That's sad. I know your weaknesses. We have been training for the last 64 nights," said the girl, digging her green eyes into his skull.
"Hiei!" exclaimed the spirit detective. "You've been training this beast."
"I can guarantee you I am no beast, sir," replied Kana, smiling. "I am just a demon in a human shell."
"You don't know my name," Yusuke said, shock spreading on his face. "But, you've been tracking me!"
Kana laughed. "I have only been looking into one of you. I meet Hiei by chance, and all he did was lead me closer to the one I was looking for."
Anger like that of the Dragon was mirrored upon Hiei's face. His hands were clenched into fists at his sides as his energy increased. He hated to be used, and Kana had definitely used him. She had also gained two things, information and training.
"Who were you going after, then?" I questioned.
At this, she looked me straight in the eye. "You, Kurama."
I was not surprised. She had taken a special interest in me when we first arrived at this complex. Now I knew my prediction had been correct. The only question was why.
"Dang you!" yelled Yusuke, his fingers formed ready to fire his Spirit Gun. "Why did you do chase after him!?"
"For reasons you would not understand," she replied calmly.
"That's not a good enough answer!" Yusuke yelled in reply. Spirit Energy flowed to his fingers.
"Do not fire!" Hiei told the detective, though it was too late. The blast fired from his fingertips, heading straight for Kana.
Smoke filled the area where Kana was standing. Rubble fell from the sky, adding to the dust that was already spiraling. A few minutes later the dust cleared, revealing a wall of hollyhocks as black as the night sky. They slowly receded back into the pavement, causing some pieces to become loose and stick out of the ground.
"That was not a very nice gesture," replied the demon, her energy now sensible. Her green eyes glared at Yusuke, carefully studying him, waiting for his next attack, if it came.
"You're not a very nice person," Yusuke countered, powering up for another attack.
"Wait," said Hiei, standing in front of Yusuke. "If we are going to fight, I should be the one to do it. I know her better than any of you."
"It's true," I said. "If she has been training with him for the last 64 nights, he would be the best to fight her."
"Fine," growled Yusuke, backing down as Hiei stepped forward, preparing for battle by pulling his sword from it's sheath.
"How about you all fight me?" asked Kana, a smirk coming to her lips.
We all glanced at each other, then nodded.
"Let's get this over with. If I win, I get to speak privately with Kurama. You win, and I will take my own life. Deal?" bargained Kana. Hiei looked my way to see if I agreed to the terms. I nodded.
"Deal," Hiei replied, jumping from the ground and starting the battle.
A/N-Yay! Fight scene! Okay, I won't kill you. New chapter up after this one as soon as I can copy and paste! Anyway, please review! PLEASE!(Again, with the exclamation marks...)
