Chapter 20

Yukina made sure all her ideas were in her head before she asked Yusuke and Kieko if she could talk to them. They said yes and the three of them met by the pond. Yukina knew she had to be able to talk them into this, and she was pretty sure she knew how.

"Look, I know this will come as a shock to you, but I'm not quite innocent. I am probably almost as bad as you are Yusuke. But I do care about my brother and Kirana. And they are in love, but Hiei doesn't realize it and Kirana doesn't believe she can be loved. I know the best way to get Hiei to come around, but I cant do it alone. And I was wondering if you two would help me," Yukina said.

Yusuke looked at the koorime and smiled, "What do you want me to do?"

Kieko looked from her friend to her fiancé not sure what to do. She was not prepared for that kind of speech from the koorime. She wanted to help, but she was in shock.

"Please Kieko. It won't work if you don't help too," Yukina said worried about her friend.

"Of course I will help. What do you need us to do?" Keiko said.

"Good. First I need to stage a big fight between the two of you. Big enough for a breakup… Yusuke, you have to be caught looking at Kirana. Kieko looking at Hiei. I know it will be hard but you have to make it believable. They have to believe that you two are in love with the one they want. Do you think you can do it?" Yukina said hoping she wouldn't have to call in a favor from Jin.

"I think I can," Kieko said unsure.

"It won't be hard looking at Kirana, but making her believe I don't love Kieko that I love her… not to mention Hiei… but I will do my best," Yusuke said.

Yukina grinned. Her plan was going to work. She was going to help make her brother and the pretty demoness very happy indeed.

They talked for a while longer deciding that dinner that night would be the best time for them to start looking at the demon they were supposed to and three days later the big fight.

That night at dinner Kirana noticed Yusuke watching her. She also noticed Kieko watching Hiei. She didn't think much about it. Yusuke was strange. But she sincerely hoped the two weren't having problems. She had been under the impression that they had been in love for a long time.

Kirana was not the only one to notice the staring. Hiei could feel Kieko's eyes on him, but every time he looked over she blushed and looked down at her food. Then he noticed the detective watching Kirana.

Hmmm… maybe I will just strangle him.

"What!"

NO… what am I thinking.

"You are thinking that he is looking at your demoness."

No I'm not. He can look at whomever he wants.

"Kieko keeps looking at you. Maybe she has the hots for you."

Shut up!

"You know I'm right."

NO! The Ningen girl is in love with the detective.

"Doesn't mean she isn't looking for fun elsewhere."

SHUT UP!

"Fine suit yourself."

That's when he realized that everyone was watching him. Even the detective. Quickly he got up and left the table. He couldn't believe he had lost control. What had he done? He didn't want to know. Quickly he made his way to the clearing where he had kissed Kirana. He needed to clear his head.

"I'm getting a little tired. If you all will excuse me I think I am going to go to bed now," Kirana said trying not to glare daggers at Kieko.

Once the two demons left everything was quiet. Yukina was impressed with how well her plan was going. Kieko and Yusuke were good. Everyone noticed the two of them looking at the two demons that had left. Shortly after Hiei and Kirana left so did Kurama and Botan. Followed by Kuwabara.

"Okay you guys did good tonight!" Yukina said to her friends.

"Really do you think so? I mean Hiei makes me so nervous I couldn't keep looking at him when he looked at me," Kieko said worried that she had screwed up her friends plan.

"No that was perfect," Yukina said excitedly.

"So what are we going to do tomorrow," Yusuke asked getting into the role.

Yukina then told them both the plan for the following day. Then they all three retired for the night. Little did they know someone had been listening and was making plans of her own to help the plot being made.

The following day everyone was up early since they had all gone to bed early the night before. Genkai pulled Yusuke aside telling him to work training Kirana. She was hoping that the girl would be a good study.

"Plus it will be good experience for you. You need to learn how to train. So train Kirana," Genkai said keeping her plans for the plot a secret.

"Sure, no problem," Yusuke said gulping.

Once Yusuke had gone to train with Kirana Genkai pulled Hiei and Kieko aside. Telling them that she thought Kieko should know how to defend herself she told Hiei to train Keiko on the katana.

"Why can't the detective train her?" Hiei said not wanting to waste his time on the ningen.

"Because he is training with Kirana, and you are better with a katana than Yusuke could ever hope to be," Genkai said.

Hiei growled. The detective was getting too friendly with Kirana as far as he thought. And he didn't want to spend time with the ningen. She kept looking at him funny. He didn't like it.

Now with that taken care of time to take care of her little plot forming guest. Genkai had her own plot for yet another pairing. She would make sure that Yukina and Kazuma got together before Hiei and Kirana.

"Yukina?" Genkai called.

"Yes, Genkai?" Yukina answered.

"Will you please call Kazuma? I have a job for him," Genkai told the young girl.

"Okay," she said and went to the phone and called Kazuma.

Kuwabara was there in record time. Genkai pulled him aside and told him to train Yukina. She said that if he planned to marry her he had better teach her to defend herself so that she would not be in danger when someone was looking to hurt him. Kuwabara readily agreed and told Yukina what he was going to do and led her to the dojo and began teaching her how to defend herself.

Genkai smiled to herself. Soon the Reikai Tantei would settle down some. She knew her plan would work. She was glad she didn't have to do it all herself, she was glad for the new demoness. She hadn't known what to do about Hiei. She was also thankful that her little koorime wasn't as innocent as she had pretended to be.

"Yukina, you have to try to punch the bag," Kuwabara said gently.

"But Kazuma you will always protect me. I don't need to know this. You will always protect me," Yukina said trying to pretend to be innocent still.

"But my little snow flake, what if I am not here to protect you? I would hate for you to get hurt because you couldn't even protect yourself," Kuwabara said.

Yukina was getting frustrated. She knew how to protect herself. When she was getting kidnapped by a male she would kick him in the groin, and a woman she would pull her hair out. She was not as weak as Kuwabara thought.

"Please my little snow ball," Kuwabara tried again.

Finally Yukina could not take it anymore. She kicked the bag as hard as she could in the exact area that would have been a man's groin. She felt so much better now. Then she realized what she had done.

"Kazuma, was that good?" Yukina said trying to cover up her slip.

"Yukina, you did that on your own. Didn't you?" Kuwabara asked.

"Yes, I did. You see Kuwabara, I know how to protect myself. I appreciate you trying to help me, but I can do it," Yukina said.

"You called me Kuwabara," Kuwabara said dumbfounded.

Yukina could have hit herself in the head. She could not believe what she had just done. Well she should have known. She should have known that once she was herself to one of the gang she would keep slipping up.

"Yes, I did. Kuwabara?" Yukina said.

"Yes?" Kuwabara asked.

"Do you love me?" Yukina asked.

"Why, yes, my little snow flake I do," Kuwabara admitted.

"Then kiss me," Yukina said.

"What?" Kuwabara asked confused.

"Kiss me," she said again.

"But, Yukina –" Kuwabara began.

But he never had a chance to finish this sentence, because Yukina kissed him. Finally Kuwabara began to kiss her back. After a few minutes they separated both breathing heavily. Yukina took Kuwabara's hand and led him into the temple where they would not be interrupted. She would have her way. She would make Kuwabara her mate. She loved him and he loved her. She knew Hiei would not like it, but for once she was going to get what she wanted.
