Eh...late update, sorry about that. I'm the kind of person that does that though, so...
Anyways! This is the end of Diary of a Spy. Thanks to those who read & reviewed it! 3
And The Cycle Repeats Itself: The End?
I don't think I've ever been so scared in my life before. But having half of my spirit jolted dead wouldn't dampen my spirits. Oh no, I, Watanabe Maki, am not one to be disposed of so easily. Maybe it was because Hiei was rather, well, cute...Ugh. That's not the point. The point is, I've gotten my revenge for the ice-cream, but what about my first kiss? I also have to get him to pay for frightening half of my life span clear off it's…wherever it was. Anyways, I am once again finding myself in the same bush I had been in yesterday.
If you were wondering: no, I haven't really thought of a perfect plan to get my revenge. I have been sitting in this bush since last Tuesday (it is Saturday two weeks after that,) doing nothing but observing the little tree fairy.
Shuiichi hadn't come since the events from last chapter, meaning that the only interesting accomplishments on Hiei's part have been glare at passerby and sleep. As for his meals, I have no clue, since I have to report home so that I wouldn't get in trouble with my parents. This reminds me of the time I had to make a report on monkeys during a school trip to the zoo, only that the monkey was a lot more remarkable that Hiei.
…
Ooh, he twitched! I wish I had a camera. Oh well, the most I could do is write it down…Twitched, 6:32PM.
Letting out a sigh of disappointment, I reached for my bottle and gulped down the last remaining bit of water. Staring at the now empty bottle, I considered whether or not to fill it up at the nearest water fountain. Shrugging, I stood up. It's not like I'd miss anything anyways.
And so, I hid all my belongings (just my schoolbag,) inside my shrub and ventured towards the fountain. What I didn't expect to see there was Kuwabara, leaning in front of a stream of water, ready to drink. Now I really wish I had a camera…Without realizing, I gaped at the person ahead of me, quenching his thirst. I let my imagination wander off a bit…
Maybe I had seriously zoned out, because after a while, it took Urameshi's hard thump to pull me back to reality. Due to this, I had to cough—his smack has knocked the wind outta me.
"H-hi," I managed to say. Wow, I feel like 'PERVERTED LOSER' had been stamped across my forehead.
This was probably the second time I spoke to Yusuke. It was kind of awkward, since I couldn't explain what I was doing, nor strike up a smart conversation. (Though I doubt Urameshi could.)
"We thought you'd be here," said a voice from behind the black-haired youth.
Shuiichi's pretty face graced my eyes, and I forced myself to not look at him. Standing to close to him made me feel as if I was standing next to the sun…ahh, the brightness.
No, wait a minute, come again?
"Huh?"
It took me a moment to realize that Urameshi's arm was around my shoulder.
"Now now, don't act innocent. Who sent you?" He asked, grinning.
"I don't—wait. No one sent me," I began only to be interrupted by Kuwabara joining our trio.
"We know you've been following us for a while now," he said, wiping his mouth. There was still some water on his face from the fountain.
Ahh, dammit. I've been found out. What should I do?
"W-well, I—"
"It's okay. Just tell us what you know," Shuiichi said. Was it me, or did his tone sound rather…menacing? If he'd use that tone when talking to his fan club, I'm sure they would think twice before hitting on him.
"I don't know anything," I said too quickly. Oh God. Was Hiei really a fairy? Are they some fairy protecting organization? Or maybe superheroes united with the fairy forces, destined to save the world, under the leadership of an evil baby of doom?
"She knows," said yet another voice. Hiei had come down from his tree.
"No, no I don't!" I said, vaguely aware that my voice was 3 pitches high from my normal one.
Hiei's sword glinted under the setting sun.
"I—I—I—I didn't mean to know anything! Spare my life!" I cried dramatically, bowing my head and shutting my eyes.
She looked rather comical, turning her head away like that. But Kuwabara took pity on her. The poor girl was human, after all. Probably some demon offered to pay her a generous amount of money to research each of them in turn. What if she agreed because she desperately needed to money to feed her 7 younger siblings?
"Hey guys, let's just…erase her memory, or something," Kuwabara said.
My savior!
I mustered the courage to open one eye. Hiei still had his sword pointed at me.
"Y-y-yeah! I swear I won't bother you guys anymore, so…"
My words were ignored, as they began discussing the matter between themselves. Yusuke had long since removed his arm from me, so I was free to go. Yeah right. If I left, who knows what they'd do to me once they found me. Maybe fleeing to America would work…
"Alright," Kurama said, after a long while. Kuwabara's reasoning seemed to stand in the right, and so, they all turned to face the girl.
"Is she okay?" Yusuke said, staring at her.
She seemed to be daydreaming about something.
"HEY!"
"WHAT?!" I yelled instinctively. Blushing, I become conscious of what I had done, and apologized. "So, what are we going to do?"
"Erase your memory," Hiei said. His words always seemed short and to the point.
"Okay…how would we do that?" I asked.
"Close your eyes."
And so I did.
Whatever happened after, I don't know.
"Ugh, headache…"
"Maki! You're going to be late!" My mom's voice yelled through my door.
I was lying on my bed, in my room; in my house…I thought I had been in the park. Oh well!
"I'm up! Get me some painkillers, my head hurts!"
I rolled off my bed and got ready to leave. In my mind, I rolled over the past days events. Weird…I don't really remember participating in the school festival. Wait, it wasn't even that time of year! Shrugging at my weird memories, I remembered my crush on Kuwabara. Glancing at my wristwatch, I realized I was going to be late if I wanted to see him leave his house to school.
"Mom, I'm skipping breakfast!"
The End...probably.
