Hino Rei shook her leg furiously as she sat on the window sill in the living room of the Minamino's home. Everyone, Shiori, her husband, and her son-in-law, gathered themselves in the room, watching a television special. However, Rei's attention was not on the television, but of the snow falling outside. Kurama left in the summer and now it was the middle of winter. Snow covered every inch of land, like it was covering it with a protective white fur.

The speed of her twitching highly increased as she thought of all the possibilities that could have happened to Kurama, not to mention Hiei and Yusuke. The worse thing that could happen to them is that they could have gotten killed, no, the worse thing that could happen is that they decided to stay in the Makai; decided that it is much better then living among different species. Maybe Hiei...but Yusuke and Kurama? Anything was possible...

"Are you okay Rei dear?" Shiori asked as a horrified image appeared on the screen and she quickly turned her head to face Rei as the males watched with great interest. She knew that Rei was thinking about her son, which, by the way, she knew that he is in the so called Makai, demon world. Quite terrified that a place like that existed, she begun wondering if all the creatures that have been on the news were demons who escaped from the Makai. She cleared the thought out of her head for the moment and focused back on Rei. Shuichi didn't return back any of her calls that she surprisingly made.

Rei only nodded in response and stopped her leg movement as she stood up. "I'm going to my room, I am suddenly tired."

"Alright, goodnight dear," Shiori replied as she watched Rei walk dully up the stairs, the males muttering a goodnight. Maybe Rei's icy shell towards Shuichi was finally cracking.

Rei softly closed the from behind and leaned against the door. Sighing heavily, she pushed herself off of the door and flopped onto the bed. Breathing in heavily, she stopped her breathing and blinked in confusion. This was Kurama's scent, his scent was everywhere in her room. She quickly sat up and scanned the room with excitement in her eyes. Oh, wait, this is Kurama's room. Her eyes lowered in disappointment, not surprise that she wandered into his room.

'You miss him, don't you dear?'

'Who are you?'

'I'm you, I'm your conscience, but this isn't about me; this is about you. Rei, you want to see Kurama, I know and I will help you.'

'How?'

'In do time dear, in do time.'

"Keiko!" Rei exclaimed as she saw her friend walking on the streets. Keiko turned around slowly in confusion, but smiled warmly when she recognized who it was. She greeted the raven-haired warmly and walked with her down the streets.

"How is it being a senior in high school?" Rei asked as she threw her briefcase upon her shoulder. "It's quite enjoyable in my opinion."

"I guess, you actually have a voice in the other students' ears. It has been really quiet though since Yusuke isn't there causing havoc and Kuwabara misses school a couple of times when a demon is around, even though he doesn't have too," Keiko giggled lowly and squeezed the tie of her uniform.

"Yeah, I haven't had any fun either since Kurama isn't there to make the other girls jealous of me," Rei replied with a chuckle and gripped the handle of her briefcase. They both walked in silence, staring at the ground. They both knew that it's been two years. Rei's eyes wandered to Keiko's sadden form. Unlike her, Kurama didn't propose to her so this was must definitely effecting her the most.

"This is where we split off huh?" Keiko stated as she halted at a street corner. "I see you around Rei, don't want to be late for school right?"

Rei nodded in response and watched as Keiko waved goodbye and headed the opposite way from her. Alright, another torturing day at school. Holding her head up high, she took in a deep breath and continued her way towards the school.

Hitomi watched as her arch-nemesis purchased a riceball and head out of the building. She knew exactly were the girl was going since she followed the same routine everyday. Slowly following close behind, she hid behind the corner of the building as the target sat under a tree and ate her light lunch silently. Once she dug into her briefcase, Hitomi found it as the time to strike. Leaping from behind the corner, she rolled up her sleeves and stormed over to victim.

"Alright! This is your last time to tell me where Shuichi really is Hino!"

Rei sighed in annoyance, finding this to be quite boring after a while. "I already told you where he was and I'm not going to repeat myself every time, especially not for you."

"I checked school records and he wasn't on the exchange student program."

"Hitomi! For the umpteen time, I told you he quit coming to this school and signed up somewhere else!"

"But why be exchanged for two whole years? I don't understand! I miss the attention he gave me and the way he treated me and everyone else."

"Well, you're not the only one Hitomi okay!" Rei exclaimed and stood up sharply glaring at her. "Stop drooling over Shuichi and chase someone else already! Don't you want to go to the prom with someone? It is tonight you know. You didn't go junior year, because you was waiting for Shuichi, but reality check girlfriend, he isn't coming back for a while, a very long while! Now, you're cute enough to go get a average guy or something!"

Hitomi gasped at her comment and watched as Rei stormed around her and away. Hitomi shook with anger and was going to give that wench a piece of her mind, but found something that caught her eye. Picking it up, her eyes rested on pictures of Shuichi and Rei in a photo booth. Disgusted at the series of pictures, she clenched it within her hands and stormed off.

Flipping the pages of her history textbook, Rei desperately tried to find the answer to her question. She sipped at her tea Mrs. Minamino prepared for her and continued to flip through the pages. School was a contrast drag since every guy asked her to the prom. The prom...

The priestess looked out the window and saw females entering cars, their parents waving them goodbye. A life long dream, going to the prom would be fun, but not that much fun to go by yourself or with someone you hardly know.

"It's a drag is it not?" a voice stated from Rei's door. Quite surprise at who it was, she sat her homework aside and swung off of her bed. "Keiko, what are you doing here?"

"Well, I was wandering by and decided to stop by," Keiko replied with a smile, but that soon left her face as Rei gave her a look that meant she new she was lying. Keiko sighed heavily and closed her door. "Okay, I came to see if you had any word from Kurama on how things are going down there."

"Sorry Keiko, but Kurama doesn't call me back. He doesn't reply or answer for anyone. I'm quite worried actually."

"Oh," Keiko simply replied and lowered her head to the ground in a disappointed manner. "It's just...it's been two whole years. I was..." Keiko stopped herself as she felt the tears threatening to fall. "Thanks Rei, I have to go."

"Keiko," Rei thought as she outstretched her hand towards the door. This was so hard on Keiko and hard on her too.

'I think it is time for me to step in.'

'What do you mean?'

'Huh, we're going to the Makai my dear.'

Kurama watched as Yusuke stood by his servants and Hiei next to Mukuro. The tournament had just begun. The winner of the tournament would be the ruler of all of Makai until the next tournament. There seemed to be thousands of demons who were here. Everyone wanted the dream of becoming the ruler. However, one after another fell to their opponent's claws.

"Kurama, we're next," Yomi stated as he pointed to the ring. "What has gotten into you my friend? You have been dazing out lately."

"I'm fine," Kurama firmly answered and hopped into the fighting ring. He searched for his opponent and turned to referee, Koto, waiting for her to announce the demon he was fighting.

"And the lucky person to fight Kurama is...Shigure!" The crowd yells in excitement and was eager for the fight to begin. Koto blinked in confusion, looking frequently for Shigure. "Um...where is he?"

"I'm here," a feminine voice answered. Kurama's eyes grew largely at the person who stood in front of him. How...could this be?

"What? I'm Shigure...now...he seemed to had a little accident and couldn't make it so I took the liberty of coming for him. Lets stop chatting and lets start fighting!"

"There's nothing against that so let the battle begin!" Koto yelled and the crowd yelled in agreement.

"What is the matter Hiei?" Mukuro asked as she saw the expression on Hiei's face, not to mention Yusuke's. "I'm a bit puzzled myself, but the look you hold has a deep secret. Do you know her?"

"That's Rei...but how did she get here? Why is she here?"

"You heard the lady, lets begin Shuichi dear!" Rei exclaimed and held up her lengthy nails in an offensive position. "Ready or not, here I come!"
