I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho
Telepathy
The day before the final match of the Dark Tournament.
Kurama was testing the juice of the Fruit of the Previous Life when Sarah found him.
"What are you doing here," he asked concerned.
"I'm looking for Erin she snuck out of the room again," she sighed. "Um, what are you doing?"
That question was answered in the form of Kurama turning into Yoko.
"What," gasped Sarah?
"Suichi was testing some juice that clown gave him. He said it would turn him back into me and apparently it works," said Yoko.
"Oh."
Yoko was looking at her and then he stepped towards her. She backed away as far as she could until her back was against a tree. She stared at him with fear in her eyes.
"Don't worry I'm not going to hurt you," he said touching her cheek with his hand.
She winced, "Your not?" she asked shakily.
He leaned in closer. "No, if I did Suichi would never let me out again. You see he likes you very much and to tell the truth I can see why."
Yoko changed back into Kurama.
Kurama backed away from her. "Are you alright?" he asked worried.
"Yes, I'm fine just a little shocked," she gasped.
They stared at each other. Kurama feeling really uncomfortably considering what Yoko had just told her. She finally broke the silence.
"Well, I better go find Erin." She turned to go.
"Wait." She faced him.
This was harder than he ever thought it would be, but he managed to get the words out. "After the tournament will you go on a date with me?"
She stared, "I don't know maybe," she looked pale.
He nodded. Kurama felt a familiar pressure on his mind.
About the same time
Erin had been walking in the woods when three demons showed up.
"Well, well what do we have here?" said demon one.
"It's a pretty human girl," snickered demon two.
"Hey, little girl it's not safe for you to be out alone," said demon three. "Let us escort you back." He reached for her.
She ducked under his hand and ran away. The three demons chased her. She tripped over some tree roots.
"Oh, not now," she cried in frustration. She tried to get up, but her foot was stuck between two roots. She tugged, but couldn't get her foot loose. "This isn't good."
The demons caught up to her. They laughed at her predicament. Demon two reached for her. She closed her eyes. The demon cried out in pain. She opened her eyes and saw that his arm had been cut off. At first she was confused, but then she saw Hiei.
"Your lucky I only took an arm," he snapped. "Now leave before I take more." They ran pell-mell away. One even ran into a tree. Erin giggled. They were gone. "What are you doing here?" Hiei asked Erin angrily. He looked into her eyes there was no fear in them, but he thought he saw a glimpse of mischief in them.
"I was looking for you," she said frankly. She finally managed to get her foot loose.
"What?" he asked confused.
"You heard me," she answered sweetly.
"Why?" he asked wryly. Last time she wanted to see him she had tried to examine his burnt arm.
"I wanted to know if you knew anything about Yukina's brother?" she said still in that sweet voice.
"What? No, I don't know anything about him."
"You're lying. You do know something about her brother in fact I bet you are her brother," she said swiftly. He flinched. "I knew it," she said gleefully.
"So what if I am it doesn't really matter," he snapped.
"What do you mean?" she asked blankly.
He scowled, "I mean I'm never going to tell her anyway."
Erin stared at him. "You don't think that she wouldn't like the fact that you are her brother do you?" she asked softly.
Hiei stared back, "That's exactly how I feel."
"Well, your wrong compared to the boys she thinks might be her brother you're the brother anybody would want," she said forcefully. "At least she likes you."
"Yea, right," he scoffed. "You better not tell her."
Erin gave him a strange look. "No, I won't tell her because even though I think your wrong. It's still your right to tell her the truth or not. Just like it's her right to figure it out," she said coolly. He nodded. "But if you die, I will tell her." He stared. "There is no use to keep on searching for someone who is dead," she stated.
"Hn." Hiei removed his bandana to revile his Jagan eye.
"What are you doing?" she said wryly.
He looked into her eyes still no fear. "I'm contacting your brother, so he can take you off my hands."
"Kurama your sister is here with me. I need you to come and get her."
"Alright Hiei I'm coming."
"Erin is with Hiei," Kurama told Sarah.
They found them within minutes. Sarah led Erin back to the hotel. Kurama stayed with Hiei.
"What?" Hiei asked suspiciously.
"You've gotten to know Erin better. Have your feelings changed?" Kurama asked knowingly.
Hiei sighed, "No, if anything they've gotten stronger." Kurama smiled. "Hn, I don't even know why I like her. Her personality should repulse me itself, but it doesn't why?" Hiei said confused.
"She's your opposite," said Kurama amused.
"What?" Hiei asked.
"You've never heard that opposites attract?"
"No."
"Well, it means when two people have completely different personality and are attracted to each other. That's why they call it opposite attracted. And if anyone are opposites it is you and Erin," explained Kurama.
Hiei looked thoughtful," So Yusuke and Keiko are a example of this opposite attracted."
"Yes, I believe so," Kurama chuckled. "Are you still not going to tell her?"
"I'm never going to tell her. Besides I don't think she likes me at all." Hiei changed the subject, "She figured out that I'm Yukina's brother."
"Really."
"She threaten to tell her the truth if I died."
Kurama chuckled, "Sounds like her."
"Hn, what about Sarah?"
"Yoko told her the truth and I asked her out."
"So."
"She said maybe."
"Hn."
"She was acting strange. I swore she was scared of me," Kurama said thoughtful.
"Hn."
