"It's not her" Yusuke stated while he crossed his arms.

"Where's your proof?" Hiei stressed leaning back and glearing at him with his ruby eyes

Yusuke sighed "She's only ¼ demon, she has long hair, and I checked her recorders, well Kurama did, and she's 17 years old, the demon we're looking for is over 68 years old."

Hiei glared "She's probably just…. "There you are" Lynn cute in as she busted through the door. Hiei shot her a glare before he flickered away. "Okay" she mused with a shrug. "Anyways" she added shaking her head "time to get going, the semi-finals are starting."

-----

I glared over at Red, ever-since our little disagreement, I've been ignoring him to no existence. Just look at him standing there looking at nice in his black uniform, hands in his pockets, head looking side ways very cool like. The light shining down on him makes him look like, well, like,,, oh god… I can't help it, he's just to fine. Damn the evil curse of men and their sexy maness.

His amazing green eyes shifted towards me, I quickly looked down at my nails like they where the most interesting thing in the world.

"AND NOW FOR THE FIRST ROUND OF THE SIMIE-FINALS, PLEASE WELCOME BACK OUR BLUE TEAM ALL THE WAY FROM ST. MAEDITH, SHUICHI, KODIE, KAYKO, ALANA, AND LORIE. " I started to walk, not bothering to look where I was going, until I came face first into some-ones back

"Oh damn… sorry" I looked up and glared "I'll take that back… red" I stressed as I crossed my arms and walked passed him. I didn't have to look to know that he rolled his eyes at me.

-----

"Wow, see that cold shoulder" Yusuke mutter pointing at Kodie and Kurama.

"I know, what happened… she usually gets all mush brains around him." mutter Matt as he looked over at Lynn as if asking for her opinion. She shrugged "It's just Kodie"

---

"Here is our first question," he gave the sexy smirk as he flipped up the first card. "What are the Elements in the Human Body?" I clicked the button and smirk as the caption of the other team glared at me.

"Simple.. Oxygen (65).Carbon (18), Hydrogen (10), Nitrogen (3), Calcium (1.5) Phosphorus (1.0), Potassium (0.35), Sulfur (0.25), Sodium (0.15), Magnesium (0.05), Copper, Zinc." I took a breath with a smug grin. "Selenium, Molybdenum, Fluorine, Chlorine, Iodine, Manganese, Cobalt, Iron (0.70), Lithium, Strontium, Aluminum, Silicon, Lead, Vanadium, Arsenic, Bromine (trace amounts)." I slyly grin as I shrugged "To easy."

I got some looks, that is one of the harder questiong to memorize, I knew this song about it when I was a kid. Oxygen lala,,, Carbon..ladeda… and so and so forth. Okay so I was a weird kid with a lot of time on my hands. Big deal.

"That's correct, one for the blue teams, now for question number two." He smile his smile, and we all sighed again. Even the girls on the other team couldn't over look his charm. "The alcohol, HOCH2(CH2)6CH2OH, with two OH groups is only slightly soluble in water. A similar alcohol of the form, CH3(CH2)6CH2OH, with only one OH group would be expected to,

A: have the same solubility in water as alcohol with two OH groups.

B: be less soluble in water than the alcohol with two OH groups.

C: be more soluble in water than the alcohol with two OH groups.

D: be less soluble in a nonpolar solvent such as dichloromethane ?"

My hand twitched as it went for the buzzer, but the sound was heard before I could pressed it down, I was annoyed now, these where my favourite problems.

"The answer is B, Be less soluble in water the alcohol with two OH groups." Shuichi's voice was smooth a clam, like he was bored or something. I hate him so much, arr.. I could count the ways, but then it would be like the movie 10 things I hate about you… okay.. Back on track.

"That's correct…"

------

"Wow, these are retarded questions" Yusuke stressed stretching his head. Lynn crossed her arms and glared at him, "What?" he stressed glaring back at her. She turned her head as she huffed "Language"

Yusuke starched his chin with a confues look in his beep choloate brown eyes "but I didn't swear"

She gave him another glare with her green eyes, "You don't have to swear to use inappropriate language."

He gave her another look "what did I say?"

"don't use the world retarded, dumnass" Matt stressed with a goofy grin.

"Matty, please" she stressed looking behind her only to get a mad glare from a mother who had her two small kids sitting next to her.

----

It was down to the final round, we where tied 10 to 10. The questions had switch to physical, and that was it for me, will I got most of them right, I just have to think longer, that's all.

"Please pick two members of your teams members for the sudden death match." They all looked to me, I looked around then pointed at myself. "No, Red is better at physic then me"

Kayko gave me a look "it's a random question it could be anything, and your quick on the draw."

"And" Alana pushed "Your great under pressure"

"So is Red" I mutter glaring at him over my shoulder.

Lorie grabbed my arm and started drag me "Well if you didn't get into that fight then maybe you wouldn't be here." I grumbled. She was right, just before the last match me and Ref got into it again, and it ended with me saying that I could answer circles around him and anyone else, and that I as we the queen in sudden death rounds. So yea, me and my big mouth.

Lorie gave me a smile as she let me go in front of the stand thing. On the other said was a girl, I'd say she was about a year younger then me. She wore her school uniform which was a black blazer and a forest green knee high skirt. Her shoulder length dirty blond hair was pushed back with a white head band. She was plain, she could be cute with some work.

"Okay ladies, here are the rules." He was between us and I could smell his sent, it was sweet yet spicy, very manly, and very heart melting. "You'll be given a question, you'll both have 30 seconds to writ down the problem, when you are done hit the buzzer. Understand?" He looked at me and I just gave him a soft sweet smile, showing him that I understood perfectly fine. The other girl just rolled her eyes and lifted her pen.

"Alright," he mushed looking between us, I gave a smug grin as I tossed up the pen and caught it. Our announcer shurgged then pulled out a card. "sin(x)2 cos(x)2, go" he hit the timer.

I wrote as fast as I could this was grad 12 math, easy, I did this chapter before I left. Multiply sin(x) and sin(x), thenmultiply the sin(x) and sin(x) by adding the exponents the sin's, I glanced up, she was writing pretty damn fast. sin(x) x sin(x) sin 2 (x)now the rest is easy.

I flew through the rest as fast as I could 10 seconds left. Multiplycos(x) and cos(x), multiply the cos(x) and cos(x) by adding the exponents the cos's.

"And 3,2,.." the buzzer went off just as I got the answer, my mouth dropped, no way did she get that before me, not a chance.

"sin2 cos2(x)" she was smug, I was happy, "that is ...incorrect, Miss Lewis if you can giev the right answer then your team enters the finals."

I put down my pen and looked right in the girls eyes "close, it'ssin2(x) cos2(x)" she looked at her paper and cursed her mistake. I on teh other hand gave a cute shurg and a sly smile.

"AND THERE YOU HAVE IT, OUR FIRST TEAM TO INTER INTO THE FINALS, THAT WILL BE HELD TOMORROW MORNING AT 10AM SHARP."

"That was great" Kayko stated while flopped back on my bed "I guess" was my answer as I rolled over so I could see the window. It was around 3, this comp, took all god damn day. My brain is tired, so is the rest of my body.

"I just loved it when you answered the elements of the humanly body question, I didn't even know them all." I sighed as I she russled around.

"My mother use you sing this silly song about it when I was a kid, it just stuck into my brain." she stopped and walked towards my bed, I could feel it sink down as she sat, then I could feel the warmth of her hand on my back as she rubbed it back and forth in a soothing method.

"Do you… "That's okay, I'll think I'll try to nap" I need sleep, to many nights have I been up thinking about the painful past. My body can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore.

"Okay" the warmth from her hand left me.

"Kayko" I stopped her. "could you rub my back until I fall asleep." I didn't know why, but I just need someone there, someone I know, I was still rattled about that night terror I had a few weeks back.

"Alright" she softly spoke, I felt the warmth return, no question asked. She rubbed it back a forth in another soothing motion, it as nice. I could feel my eyes getting heave, she started to hum, it was pretty, like a light snow fall. My eye soon closed , I started to drift away with only the warmth of her hand and her pretty snow flake voice.

----

Kayko gently placed a soft blanked over Kodie, it was the most peaceful sleep she has ever seen her in. She glance towards the window, as a chill ran up her spin. The cold was coming, and she had a feeling that something else was out there, something colder and more dangerous then the snow.

----

Kurama lid back in his arm chair. He was tired, he hated these competition, but he really didn't have a choice in the matter this year. He took a breath as he let his mind wander back to what Yusuke had told him after the match.

-

"Hey Kurama" he turned and face his friend, he was still flush with annoyance from Kodie's many and uncalled for out busted from that day.

"Yusuke when we are in public it's Shuichi." he didn't hide his growing annoyance.

"Sorry, but hey, don't get do bent out of shape over Kodie's, well, increase in meanness." Kurama looked at his friend in wonder, what did he know. "You see, today is the anniversary of her mothers death" Yusuke added in a softer tone.

Kurama looked at Yusuke "Who told you this?" he found it hard to believe that Kodie would tell him something like that.

"Kayko, don't say anything to Kodie, and trying not to think to much about her actions today" Red looked at him.

"Kayko" .. Yusuke sighed "Kayko.."

----

Kurama looked towards his window, the light was starting to reach its time for going down. He sighed anniversary. He remember her eyes the night before, and it all made sense now, she was feeling for her mother, still heartbroken, still lost, still holding regret.

Kuram placed his hand to his neck where a sliver chair lay, on that was a locket, inside was a picture of him and his mother and a picture of his new family. He couldn't even fathom what he would do if he lost such an important person in his life. He left the chain go and let out another sigh, he waned to apologize to Kodie now, but that would mean he was letting the secret out.

There was a rattle at the window, a chill hit his spine, it was cold, and dark, his eyes harden as walked towards the window. Something was coming and it was coming fast.
