Pretend Your Someone Else

Finding Out

~~~~~~~~~

Sakura's POV

A week later

Shinma and I walked home in silence. Even though a week had passed the conversation stayed in each of our minds and wouldn't leave, but we never said anything about it. What was there to say. 'Oh, I guess they found us out, they know all about us and our past. Let's just let them take us away and get punished by that stupid brat Koenma.' Yeah, that would work very well. Though we are not sure, we better be careful and watch ourselves. I refuse to be captured again, expecially by some little boy and his friends. Yeah, I've heard about Urameshi Yusuke, the spirit detective, what apparition hasen't. I've heard great things about him, but unlike the others, Shinma and I won't be captured. Not like that one time when we were just children, no older then 5. There was not one good reason for us to be taken away from our parents. They toke us away because of what our parents had done years before we were born. They toke Shinma and I away to punish them. Fortuently we were able to go back to our family. Though it was a good 10 years ago, I can never forget it. It haunts me at night, my past haunts me. I can not sleep without nightmares, without seeing my parents die infront of my own eyes. Then I had to witness Shinma's parents being killed along with her.



Bounty hunters.



Those bastards killed our parents and would of killed us too if we hadn't ran to America. I wonder if the detective and his friends are here to kill us? In ways I really don't want to know.



We once lived in Japan, we were born there. We came to America about 8 months ago, before Shinma's parents were murdered. They thought that if we left Japan then they wouldn't find us and we would be safe. They were wrong. The hunters found us in a months time. I'm not quite sure why they haven't finished Shinma and I off yet, maybe they want us to suffer. To think when everything is fine and safe then they'll kill us. Well, the surprise will be on them, we will never let our gaurd down.

"Sakura." Shinma said sadly, looking at the ground.

I look at her. "Yeah."

"Do you think..."

I look away angered. "I told you not to seak of that."

Shinma stopped and grabbed my arm. "We can't avoid this, we can't act as if everything is fine. Momma and Papa acted that way and look at them now, they're dead. Do you want us to die like them? Do you want to fall in your own puddle of blood? I sure as hell don't, and I won't."

I looked at her sadly. She was right. I shook my head slowly. "Your right. We can't act like this. When did life become so difficult?"



Shinma let go of my arm. "For us? It's always been hell, and it always will."

I nod sadly and we start walking towards the apartment.

-

"Finally Botan, we thought you died." Yusuke said as Botan entered the apartment that the group was to live in.

"Sorry." She panted. "It was so busy. I told Koenma we found them and he gave me there portfollios. He said that they got more information today." Botan dropped two large portfollios on the coffee table infront of the couch where everyone exept her were sitting.

Yusuke picked up the one that was ontop. It read SHINMA in red block letters and had a picture of her in youkai form. He looked at it confused. "Just Shinma, where's her first name?"

Botan shrugged and kneeled down besides the table. "The don't know it, the same for Sakura."

Yusuke opened it and and read the first page and passed it around for everyone else to read.

Hiei looked at the two photos and looked deep in thought.



"Checkin her out huh Hiei." Yusuke said pervertedly.

Hiei shot him a death glare and set the pictures on the table. "Hn. You better watch your back detective, the kitsune girl has already killed one detective, if we're lucky you'll be the second."

-

Shinma opened the door and we walked in. We walked into the living room and there sitting on the couch was Cahadras. She was waiting for us.

"What took you." She asks.

"Detention." I tell her and sit down next to her, picking up my guitar on the side of the couch and plucked a few strings.

She snorted. "School, your Youkai, you don't need that hell hole. I don't go so why should you?"

"Because if we attend it then it will be harder to track us down because we'll look like any other ningen student." Shinma said sitting down on the other side of Cahadras.

"Whatever you say puppy girl."

"So why are you here?" I ask.

"To warn you two."

"Warn us about what?" Shinma asks.

"You know that spirit detective, Urameshi Yusuke."

"Yeah." We both say in unison.

"He's got a new mission."

I knew what that mission was, even if I didn't want to admit it, it was true.

"He's after us." Cahadra said blankly.

"Us?" Shinma asked confused.

Cahadra nodded. "Yep, the baby figured me out and now he's sent the detective and his little friends after us. Looks like us three are gonna have some fun." She smirked and put her arms around our shoulders. "So what do you think about that girls."

"What kind of fun?" I ask.

"Hmmmm, first a little cat and mouse. If they don't get the idea, well, you know what we have to do."

"We said we'd never do that again." Shinma said.

"Yeah, but since then we haven't been chased. We have to." Cahadras said. Even though she didn't lead it on, she hated what we would have to do if we couldn't lose them.



I nodded my head. "It's the only way. If they push it, they lose it. Death." I say sadly.

"Why so low Kit, you've killed before, whats one more time?" Cahadras said. She was trying to lighten up the situation.

"But, I." I paused. "He wasen't just a kid, their only 15 and 16. It wouldn't be right."

Cahadras sighed. "Well, lets just hope they get the hint and leave before they get killed."

I set my guitar back on the side of the couch and stand up and walk to my room. I don't want to see or talk to anyone. As I close my door I hear Cahadras voice.

"Poor kid."

I close my door and lock it. For some reason I'm angry. Not at Cahadras or Shinma, but at myself. I hate myself for being that poor kid. Sure, Shinma also witnessed her parents death but she reacted to it differently. She has never been called 'Poor kid.' No, never, and she probably never will. She's the lucky one. I envey her, even though I would never let anyone know that. She's accepted her parents death. Me on the other hand, there is something holding me back from accepting it. I'm not sure what.

My anger rises by the second and I feel the walls close in on me. I have to get out of here. I go to my window and open it. We're 15 stories up but I don't care. I look down and no one is around. I swing my legs outside and sit on the window seal. I push myself off and land saftly on the ground. A ningen would of died from that fall but I'm not ningen so it's as if I jumped of my bed.

The rain is quickly soaking my hair and clothes but I ignore it. I like the the rain, it helps me think. For me this is the perfect time. It's night and it's raining hard.

I walk down the sidewalk. I don't know where I'm going and I really don't care, as long as I'm away from everyone. I don't want to see anyone or for anyone to see me. I change coarse and head to the place where no one will be at this time of night. The park.

-

"I'm going for a walk." Kurama told the group who were still looking at the folders.

"But it's raining." Botan said.



"I don't mind, it doesn't bother me." Kurama said. He grabbed his long red trenchcoat and was out the door without another word. Something was bothering him and he had to figure it out. Now was a good time because most would take shelter from the rain and the streets would mostly be deserted.

He stepped outside and decided to go somewhere quite where he wouldn't be bothered. He headed for the park that he had first seen a couple of days ago. It was small with alot of trees. No one would be there.

-

I walked along the path lined with trees. I had always liked this park. It was small and not alot of people came here so there was rarly someone here.

I turned off the path and into the trees. If anyone did come here they wouldn't be so stupid as to walk into the trees in the middle of the night. In in New York. I'm not stupid for doing this because if someone tried to mug me I could probably kick their ass. Being Youkai had many advantages.

When I reached a small clearing I looked into the sky but the rain blurred my vision so I loked at the grass.

I don't want to kill them, but I don't want to be taken away either. From the stories I've heard about the Urameshi Team is they are very strong and powerful. They have the speed, the stregnth, the power. They can control objects and have alot of spirit energy.

I chuckle. Oh yeah, I'm really going to be able to kill them. Even with Shinma and Cahadras we wouldn't stand a chance. Hell, we wouldn't even be a warm up.

The detective.

I remeber him well. I remember him telling me that I had been the one who killed my parents and that I didn't deserve to live.

I didn't kill my parents.

I didn't kill him either.

I told them that I didn't kill him. They wouldn't listen. I gave up trying to tell them that. Cahadras and Shinma think that I did. I can't blame them, everyone in spirit world think I killed him. I don't even bother to deny it anymore, but I don't agree with the false account either. My friends don't know that I didn't kill him. I'd rather not tell them the story, it seems so fake.

When he said he was going to kill me I turned and ran. What else was I suppose to do? I was only 14. He came after me but after awhile he stopped and then I heard a scream and the sound of flesh being tore up. For some reason I went back and found him dead with his throat torn out. I ran away, I was so scared. I was so young.

My eyes begin to burn and a lump comes to my throat. I swallow it down and try to keep the tears back. I can't cry. I'm to strong to cry. I'm already soaked from the rain and I don't need tears to stain me.

The tears build up in my eyes until I can't fight them back any longer. They run down my cheeks and mix with the rain. I'm soon sobbing hard. I can't hold my weight and fall to my knees and I cry in my hands.

"When did my life become so fucked up?" I choke out. "When did everything I do have to come back and haunt me?"

Them.

It's their fault.

It's my fucking parents fault that I hurt. This did this to me.

"I hate you." I whisper. "I fucking hate you. You left me alone. You let me see you die." I begin screaming at the sky and the rain. "It's your fault. I hate you. I fucking hate you. How could you do this to me? To your own daughter? I hate you. I'm glad your dead. I'm glad you were murdered and died slowly. Now you know what pain I feel you bastards." I go into another fit of tears.

I hear footsteps but pay ant attention. They'll probably think I'm some crazy person and leave me alone.

"Sakura?"

I lift my head slowly...



It kind of sounds like...

I look up into emerald green eyes...

Kurama.

"Whats wrong?" He asks. He sounds concerned but, he couldn't be, I'm imagining things.

I quickly wip away my tears but more take their place. "Nothing." I choke.

He walks over to me and kneeles down. "What hapened?"

I shake my head. "Nothing, just, go away."

He doesn't leave.

This is great, the guy I've known for a week and who is suppose to arrest me is kneeling down next to me asking me whats wrong. Why doesn't he just knock my out and take me to Koenma or kill me? What's wrong with this guy?

"I'm not leaving until you tell me whats wrong." He tells me.

I look at the ground. I really have no choice.
