My World

Ch.6

Yusuke and the group emerged from the dark depths of the cave. Keiko ran right towards Yusuke and hugged him tightly, as she cried softly.

"Thank goodness you're safe." Keiko whispered.

Hiei looks around and spotted the petite red head who then spotted him and freaked out.

"Ah! No! Not you!" Rouge yelled.

Hiei smirked and stepped towards her, Rouge stepped back and then began to run away as Hiei followed.

Kurama shook his head, "Hiei, you never seize to surprise me."

Keiko sighed, "Yusuke, what happened?"

Yusuke yawned, "I kind of beat Sensui."

Keiko cocked her head, "What do you mean 'kind of' beat him?"

Botan was with Keiko, "What do you mean? He's still alive!"

Kurama shook his head, "No, I watched Yusuke defeat Sensui, however it wasn't Yusuke, it was his demon blood."

Keiko looked at the kitsune then Yusuke, "Demon blood?"

Yusuke nodded, "Apparently my blood is the moziku demon blood, which my 'dad' is one of the three kings of demon world, Raizen. So I'm going to demon world to have a visit to my 'father'."

Keiko sighed, "So I have to wait for you for however long it takes?"

Yusuke nodded, "It would seem so,"

Keiko looked down her bangs covering her face, "Alright, I understand."

Yusuke grasped Keiko's shoulders, "Hey, I'm going to make our world a safer place alright?"

Keiko nodded, "I understand that."

Kurama closed his eyes, 'this isn't going to go very well with Hana either.'

The group then dispersed back home to rest and take care of wounds and their loved ones.

-Kurama's apartment-

Kurama opened the door to a very clean home. He took off his shoes as he spotted Hana out on the balcony, drying clothes and humming a tune. The kitsune swallowed his pride as he approached the petite woman from behind. Hana continued humming her tune as she hung up some of Kurama's skinny jeans.

"Hana?" Kurama asked.

Hana jumped a foot in the air and screamed. She turned around and grasped her overly beating heart.

"Sichi! Don't do that to me!" Hana scolded she took a deep breath and hugged him tightly. "Are you okay?" Hana asked noticing that Kurama wasn't exactly happy.

Kurama returned the hug, "I'm fine, I was just worried."

Hana pulled from the kitsune and sat back on the flat of her feet, "You must be hungry, I'll make you something to eat. Why don't you go ahead and take a shower."

Kurama sighed, "Yes mother." He said sarcastically.

Hana slapped his arm, "I'm just trying to help."

She then turned to walk to the kitchen to steam some rice and cut up vegetables that were already on the counter.

Kurama laughed, then looked down at the ground, "Hana?"

Hana hummed, not bothering to turn to face the kitsune, "What is it?"

Kurama sighed, "It's nothing, never mind."

Hana turned to meet the kitsune, "Sichi, you can talk to me. Something must've happened for you to be so upset."

Kurama got a knot in his throat but pushed it back down, "I had to kill a child."

Hana brought her hand to her mouth, "Oh Kura… I'm so sorry!"

She ran up to him and hugged him tightly, "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, but I'm here if you wanna talk about it."

Kurama crushed Hana in a hug, "I tried to save him, but in the end… Koenma brought back the child with his pacifier..."

Hana caressed Kurama's face once he released the petite woman, "Shuichi, you are by far the sweetest and smartest person I've met. I know that you were trying to do the best that you could but I'm glad that Koenma was able to bring back the child,"

Kurama inhaled, "I now know that I have to choose between Yoko Kurama and Shuichi Minamino. I cannot continue tearing myself apart between my human life and demon life."

Hana nodded and rubbed his cheek and smiled, "Whatever decision you make I'll be here for you."

Kurama smiled back at Hana, "Thank you. I'm going to shower now."

Hana removed her hand from the kitsune's face, "Alright, I'll have a snack ready in a few."

The white haired woman watched the kitsune go inside the bathroom, she grasped her mouth once more, "Oh Sichi…" Hana felt a couple of tears slide down her face, "I know that I shouldn't be crying, but he's hurting so much… What if Koenma couldn't bring back the child? Shuichi would be in shambles…"

-Yusuke's apartment-

Keiko sat Yusuke down on the ground and began to snip off Yusuke's extremely long hair, "Alright, just hold still Yusuke."

Yusuke nodded lightly, "Yup, I don't want you to scalp me."

Keiko giggled, "Why on Earth would I do that?"

"Because if I don't stay still, you might!" Yusuke shouted.

"After this, can we go to Hana's?" Keiko asked.

Yusuke's head was turned by the brunette, "I don't see why not. You and Hana have gotten really close, huh?

Keiko nodded, "Her sister is really cool too."

Yusuke glared, "Kana is too much like you… beating up Bankotsu…"

Keiko rolled her eyes and pointed the scissors at Yusuke, "Most of the time he deserves it!"

Yusuke stood still until the woman changed the position of his head as she clipped away at the hair.

"Keiko, you should be a hair dresser." Yusuke thought out loud.

Keiko shook her head, "No thank you… I want to be a teacher."

Realization hit Yusuke, "Oh. How'd your tests go?"

Keiko shrugged, "Alright I guess," she sighed. "Some of the questions were really hard, but I think I'll be able to get into Tokyo University."

Yusuke nodded, "You just keep aiming for the stars Keiko. I'm sure you'll get there."

Keiko smiled, "Yeah, I hope so."

-Kurama's apartment-

Hana heard Kurama turn off the water. There was silence, then heard some clanking around for something. She knocked on the door, "Shuichi?"

Kurama opened the door to reveal Hana, who was smiling, "I made you a snack,"

The kitsune smiled, and rubbed his head with a towel, "Thank you, I'll be done once I dry my hair."

Hana nods, "Ok, I was just checking on you."

Kurama nodded, "I appreciate it."

Hana closed the door and heard knocking on the door, "The door's open!" She shouted after pouring some tea.

The door opened to reveal Keiko and Yusuke, "Hey Hana. How are you?"

Hana nodded, "I'm doing great, how are you?"

Keiko fidgeted, "I need to talk to you."

Hana finished making the table, "Um, ok."

She removed her frilly apron and wiped her hands on the towel as the hair dryer started up.

Yusuke sat at the table full of food, "You're free to any of it Yusuke." Hana stated, then smiled.

-In the bedroom-

Hana shut the door behind her, "What's the matter?"

Keiko sat on Hana's side of the bed, "Are you and Kurama…" she rose her pinky.

Hana blushed furiously, "Um, no… I do have feelings for him though."

Keiko laughed, "I knew it! Um, after they get done with the snacks that you made, what do you say about going out to eat?"

Hana brought a finger to her lip, "I don't see why not. Shuichi's a little depressed…I think staying here will cause him to think about what happened in the demon world as well as in the cavern."

Keiko nodded, "Yusuke told me everything as well."

"Shuichi just told me a little. Not too much though. Then he said that he has to choose between himself and his alter ego, but I don't think he should have to… But that's Sichi for you …" Hana explained.

Keiko nodded, "Yusuke became a demon."

Hana's mouth dropped, "Wow, really?"

Keiko nodded once more, "So you think Kurama will go out with us? Like a double date but he won't know it."

The girls giggled as Kurama opened the door to the bedroom, "My apologies, I should've knocked."

Hana smiled, "It's alright. We're done anyway."

Keiko blushed as the kitsune was only in his boxers, she stood up and wandered out of the room with Hana.

Keiko sat at the table with Yusuke as Hana picked up the rest of the laundry and began to hang it outside.

"Yusuke, do you wanna go out with Hana and Kurama?" Keiko asked bluntly.

"Like a double date?" Yusuke asked.

Keiko shushed him, "We want you guys to have a good time tonight since you guys are wounded mentally."

Yusuke nodded, "I don't see why not."

Hana finished hanging up the clothing and then brought the basket back to the laundry room. Kurama appeared from his room and shut the door, Hana spotted him and ran him into the wall.

"Sorry! No brakes!" Hana says apologizing over and over.

Kurama patted her head, "It's alright."

The couple meet in the kitchen as Kurama sat at the table and grabbed a rice cake and pushed it into his mouth.

Kurama grabbed a cup of water to wash it down. Hana blushed and fidgeted, "Um, Sichi?"

The kitsune looked over to where Hana was standing, "What's the matter?"

Hana shook her head, "It's nothing like that… Do you wanna go out with Yusuke and Keiko tonight?"

Kurama gulped down the rice, "I don't see why not, it would be nice to spend some time with friends."

Keiko jumped up and down, "Yay!"

Hana blushed even darker, but was pulled away by Keiko who pushed her into the bedroom once more.

"What are those crazy girls up to?" Yusuke asked suspiciously.

Kurama looked down the hall, "I don't know, they're possibly raiding the closet to dress up."

Yusuke grasped two rice cakes and ate them quickly, "These things are amazing!"

Kurama nodded, "Better than having to eat berries and such that might paralyze you in demon world, am I right?"

Yusuke nodded, "Definitely. I didn't know that Hana could cook like this."

The kitsune laughed, "She didn't use to be able to, like everyone else it was hard to cook, but she gradually got better."

Yusuke nodded, "I see."

-In the closet-

Keiko and Hana began looking in the closet for the perfect outfit. The brunette noticed a deep purple skirt that had white lace around the edge that hugged the middle of the thigh. She gave it to Hana, who blushed severely. Keiko then handed her a lavender low v neck shirt that showed her black widow tattoo. Hana bit her lip nervously as she put it on and Keiko clapped.

"That's perfect!" Keiko squealed.

Hana then looked at herself in the mirror. The skirt hugged her hips and showed off her left leg that had ivies that ran down her leg and went to her ankle. Hana pulled out a cute pink polka dot dress that swept her thighs and was strapless. It had a sweetheart neckline and had frills on the chest to insinuate Keiko's breasts. The brunette giggled as she twirled in it, making the dress flutter up. Keiko laughed nervously.

"I'll have to be careful if I wear this." Keiko said.

Hana nodded, "I have shorts if you wanna wear them underneath."

Keiko shook her head, "I'm going to live dangerously."

-Kitchen-

Kurama cleaned up the table and placed the dishes in the sink. Yusuke helped him and cleaned the table off. He placed the excess rice in his hand and threw it away. Kurama then put on a dark grey peacoat that contrasted his black skinny jeans. Yusuke put on his jacket and the boys waited for the girls to exit the room.

-In the bedroom-

Keiko and Hana did their hair. Keiko put her hair up in a ponytail and then fixed her bangs. Hana's long hair flowed behind her as she left it completely down with a bow that clipped onto her bangs to hold them in place. Keiko and Hana look at each other and do each other's make up.

Keiko chose a dark purple for Hana making her eyes pop. Hana then chose a bright pink that matched the dress also making her honey eyes pop.

Hana fidgeted as she placed the locket that Kurama got for her and shook her head as she refused to look in the mirror. Keiko put on her bracelets and the girls grabbed their flats.

"Keiko! I'm so nervous!" Hana blurted out.

Keiko grasped her shoulders, "Just be yourself,"

Hana nodded and gulped, "I think we should go dancing, we can go to the new club that opened called Red."

Keiko nodded, "Can we get in?"

Hana shook her head, "Of course we can. The owner made the age limit sixteen."

Keiko nodded, "That sounds good."

The girls then grab their purses and opened the door, Keiko stepped out first making Yusuke drool over her, "Do you like it Yusuke? Hana said that I could have it if I wanted to."

"You're pretty." Yusuke stumbled out.

Keiko giggled and then looked back to Hana who was nervous and shuffled down the hallway. She got to the end of the hallway and blushed furiously. Keiko watched Kurama become speechless, and whispered, "Oh yeah, got you now!"

Yusuke whispered over to Keiko, "Are you trying to get them together?"

Keiko nodded, "Yup! I'm tired of them prancing around one another."

Hana cleared her throat, "Um, Keiko and I thought that it would be a good idea to go over to Red tonight… If that's okay…"

Kurama nodded and cleared his throat as well, "That's fine with me,"

Hana continued to blush as Kurama's green eyes pranced over her frame.

"Let's go slow pokes." Keiko says smiling.

-Red-

The techno music seeped out of the club as the bodyguard watched the double couple walk into the bright red lights.

Hana smiled and became a little more at ease as Keiko pulled Yusuke to dance with her. The white haired girl caressed her arm with her hand as she suddenly became nervous again, as her eyes flickered over to Kurama who was watching her. She bit her lip as the loud music made her body vibrate.

Keiko watched Hana who was too nervous to say anything and just sat down across from Kurama. Keiko became irritated with the meek girl, "Keiko! I can't hear myself think!" Yusuke yelled.

"Fine! I'll dance with Hana then!" Keiko said stomping over to the other petite girl and held out her hand.

Yusuke took Hana's spot as the music changed to one of Niwa's newest songs that was remixed. Keiko danced with Hana as she looked around and finally released herself. Her white hair flailing everywhere. Keiko and Hana moved their hips and caused some attention with some men. Yusuke and Kurama frowned as both men grasped the girls hips as they rolled them. Hana shook off her persuader and found herself with another one, she sighed and nearly racked the man behind her. Keiko was enjoying herself with her partner, who was nearly twice her size. Hana did a double take Niwa Yu was dancing with Keiko.

Hana sighed as she became irritated with the man's advances toward her. She shook him off and turned around. Her hair swirled like a tide.

Kurama stood up, "That's it."

Yusuke stood up as well, "Yup, let's go."

Their demon blood was burning as they pushed against the crowd to reach their dates. Kurama grasped Hana tightly as she huffed irritably. Yusuke grasped Keiko who also huffed irritably. Keiko watched Hana and Kurama dance together, 'they're not really dirty dancing but I don't think Hana knows who's she's dancing with.' Keiko thought as she recognized Yusuke's grip on her shoulders. The music then changed to a more speedy version of Sexy Back. Hana tried to look back at her pursuer but couldn't get a good look. She then smirked as she figured who would be behind her.

Keiko's mouth dropped as Hana dropped it and then turned to be face to face with Kurama. Hana smiled at the kitsune who smiled back. Keiko giggled as she could tell that the two were becoming closer.

-An hour later-

The group sits at a table as they munched on some wings. Keiko giggled with Hana as the girls eat their Teriyaki tofu bites.

"This is really good!" Keiko says.

Hana nodded, "I know! I think we worked up an appetite."

Yusuke and Kurama looked at one another then at the girls who were gossiping amongst one another.

Keiko looked up and spotted Niwa who was walking toward the groups table. Yusuke held a fist under the table as Niwa spoke to Keiko.

"Hey Keiko, I almost didn't recognize you. I mean, how could I not recognize such a beautiful vixen as yourself." Niwa soothed.

Keiko blushed, "Hello Niwa and thank you. I'm doing better, my ankle is still a little poufy but, I think it's because I was acting a fool out there."

Niwa looked over to Hana, "Hey Hana, you're as gorgeous as ever."

Hana giggled, "Hello Niwa…"

Kurama then also held a fist under the table, and spoke sharply, "What are you doing here Niwa?"

Niwa shrugged as he sat in between Yusuke and Keiko, "Well, I wanted to go out and have a bit of fun. That, this place is kind of where I work."

Keiko smiled, "You work here Niwa? Wouldn't you be afraid that the girls would tackle you, and try to take you home?"

Niwa shook his head, "Nah, usually the girls here only ask for my autograph."

Kurama cut in with a smile, "That and they're all too young for him."

Niwa flashed Kurama a death glare, "Well that is true,"

Keiko then began to wonder, "How old are you Niwa?"

Hana laughed at Niwa's crush on Keiko as he responded quietly, "Twenty-one."

Keiko was flabbergasted, "Really? I thought you were younger than that."

Niwa smirked, "Thanks for the compliment."

Keiko returned the smile as Yusuke interjected, "As much as we'd like to stay Hana and Kurama, but we gotta go."

Yusuke grabbed Keiko's hand as she stood up, "Yusuke I don't wanna leave just yet."

Yusuke snaps back, yelling, "I don't care! I am! So we are leaving!"

Niwa comes back calmly at frustrated Yusuke, "Who do you think YOU are, huh? You can't TELL her what she is and isn't going to do."

"Hey, that sounds awfully familiar, doesn't it?" Yusuke snaps while grabbing Keiko's arm.

Niwa begins losing his temper, "Really? Ha, whatever man. I'm going to enjoy kicking your ass at the Tournament...that is, if you even live that long. Later guys. I don't have time for a punk like you."

"Yeah, that's what I thought. Run away with your tail between your legs, you pussy!" Yusuke yells as Keiko slaps his arm,

"What the hell, Yusuke!? You're SUCH a jerk!" Keiko spurted out.

Niwa stopped in his tracks, turned on his heel, and took long meaningful steps toward Yusuke.

Niwa grinned, "You wanna run that by me again?"

Hana stood up but Kurama grasped her arm and shook his head, "Don't. Yusuke needs to learn."

Hana looked worriedly at Yusuke, then to the kitsune, "Okay."

The white haired girl sat back down as Yusuke stepped outside, followed by Keiko.

"I said, run away with your tail between your legs!" Yusuke enunciated once more.

Keiko looked from the tall man, to the new demon, "Stop! Don't fight!"

Hana grabbed Keiko's hand and shook her head, then took Keiko by the hand to stand on the sidelines.

Niwa grabbed Yusuke's collar, and brought him to his height, "I was going to be the bigger man and walk away from a fight. However, you've just seriously pissed me off little man."

Yusuke gulped as he just realized what he had gotten himself into. He lifted his hands defensively, "He…Hey man. Don't get carried away!"

Niwa, laughing in his face, "Ha! Don't try to pull that shit on me. You started this, so I'm gonna finish it."

Yusuke dropped the scared look and gave a serious face, "Fine! I'll beat you so hard into the ground, your ancestors will hear it from their graves!"

Niwa, not saying a single word, threw Yusuke at least 20 feet up in the air, making him flail his arms and legs around, screaming like a little girl.

Both Hana and Keiko gasp and grab their mouths in amazement.

Niwa steps back and rears back like he's fixing to throw a baseball. Yusuke begins falling back down while Niwa patiently waits for him to fall back. As soon as he got in close enough range, Niwa punches Yusuke in the gut, sending him sliding in the dirt creating a crater.

Keiko begins crying into Hana's shoulder. Kurama holds Hana's arm worryingly, "Maybe you two should go home. It'll be easier on Keiko."

Hana nods in agreement. They begin to walk their way home.

Kurama then approaches the fight scene between Yusuke and Niwa. The two demons seemingly to be fighting for their lives. The red head pursed his lips as Yusuke landed a solid punch on Niwa's jaw line, but the giant didn't move a muscle making Yusuke freak out.

"What in the hell are you?" Yusuke asked.

Niwa smirked evilly, "I'm sure that you'd wanna know but unfortunately I can't tell you that information."

Kurama watched the fight from a distance as Hana texted him that they went to his apartment, and that Keiko was staying over as well. Kurama pushed his phone back into his pocket and sighed as the other red head approached Kurama.

"What's up with them?" Rouge asked.

Kurama sighed, "Over Keiko," he started as Rouge crossed her arms.

"Really? Over a female?" Rouge questioned. "You think that we should break it up?"

Kurama shook his head, "They have to figure out where they stand on their own. If we break it up, it could cause much bigger problems."

Rouge watched Niwa, "He's fixing to completely lose his temper if Yusuke's not careful."

Kurama nodded, "I've been watching this fight all this time. I figured that Niwa was fixing to actually lose it."

Rouge nodded, "Well there really isn't anything that we can do until he simmers down."

Kurama pushed his hands in his pockets as Yusuke was completely torn up by Niwa's punches and kicks. His clothes basically falling off of his body. Kurama couldn't bare it anymore and decided to intervene. Rouge also stepped in front of Yusuke, "Ni ni! What are you doing?"

Niwa stopped himself before he nailed Rouge right in the face. He pushed his hair out of his face, "What does it look like?"

Yusuke tried to stand up but his muscles gave way. Kurama caught him on his shoulder. Yusuke looked at Kurama, his mouth dripping blood as the red head laid him on his back to see how bad his injuries were.

"Ni ni! You almost killed that kid just now!" Rouge yelled.

Niwa pushed his hands inside of his pockets as Rouge scolded him, "You're not going down the route. You promised your mom, Ni Ni! You're following the same path as him."

The giant looked over to Yusuke and said, "You better strengthen up… If not in this dark tournament, I'm going to kill you." Niwa turned on his heel and left.

Yusuke gasped for air as Kurama looked at Rouge, "I think Niwa broke some of Yusuke's ribs."

Rouge fidgeted, "I can't carry him, I'm sorry…"

Kurama sighed, "It's alright, don't worry about it." His green eyes flickered over to Yusuke's eyes, "Can you try to stand?"

Yusuke attempted to stand up but only ended up screaming in pain, "I take that as a no."

The kitsune sighed, "Alright, let's try to get you up."

Yusuke pushed himself up with Kurama's help and in just the nick of time Hana appeared in her truck. Kurama blew some hair out of his face, as Hana jumped out of the truck and ran over to where Kurama was standing.

"I'm grateful that you came when you did." Kurama started.

Hana nodded, "I figure that you needed help,"

Yusuke drifted in and out of consciousness as Kurama laid him back down on the grass. Hana inhaled then exhaled as her hands began to glow a bright pink from her aura. Hana rested her hands over Yusuke's body as he grunted from the pain.

"I'm sorry Yusuke this might hurt." Hana says as her aura changed to green and she reached inside of his body to feel around.

Yusuke screamed loudly as Hana's finger brushed over his broken ribs, "Niwa broke a few ribs," Hana informed. "There's nothing I can really do, here at least." She says as she removes her hand from his chest.

Kurama nodded, "Let's get him home so that we can take care of him properly."

Hana nodded in agreement, "Okay."

OMG! I can't believe that I got this up!
