Yo, peeps!! I'm working on not saying that 'one word' *eyes shift around*
Yeah...... I say it so often that it's probably gotten annoying to some
people. Anyhoo, I got some reviewers telling me that they hated the
cliffhanger. I know it wasn't fun for you, but it was for me! (Take that,
SMG!!) Well, I hope that I can get these up more often. I'm sorry if I
don't, you know with school and stuff going on it gets a little difficult
to keep up. Just to let you all know, Kurama is and will always (unless I
say so) be Yoko Kurama!!! Just to set that straight. And someone wanted
me to put more Yu Yu Hakusho characters in the story, I'll have to see if
that will work. It probably will..... Zuro!! Disclaimer!!
Zuro: ^_^ M.G. does not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Inuyasha. The crossover plan is still in mind and she is working towards it. (Don't know what the crossover plan is? I'll tell you later.) Anyhoo, she owns what she owns and doesn't own everything else.

Crossing Paths Ch. 4 "Wh-wha--what?!?! You're a ningen?!?!"
Kurama couldn't stand this any longer. He turned around and headed back to camp.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Zuro was trying to hide her anger at Miroku for even thinking that he could come that close to her and touch her in those places. But she couldn't hold it back any longer when he asked her this next thing.
"Zuro? Would you consider bearing my child?", Miroku asked. He thought that he actually had a chance with this beautiful Yoko.
"THAT'S IT!!", Zuro turned towards him and slapped him as hard as she could with her clawed hand. Miroku went flying back a few feet and was almost unconscious. Zuro stood up and looked down at him.
"Don't EVER do that again, Hentai (perverted) Monk!!", she yelled at him and went to go sit somewhere else, where he couldn't find her. Miroku took fair warning of this and went back to camp.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Before Miroku had come back to camp, Kurama had told the others that he was going on a walk. So when Zuro came back a few hours later, Kurama wasn't there. He didn't even get the chance to see that Miroku had gotten clawed by Zuro. Zuro walked into camp, still angry.
"Yeah, Zuro!!", Kagome ran up to her and held up her hand for a high-five. Zuro was familiar with this ningen (human) custom from her best friend and high-fived Kagome.
"Why? What did I do?", Zuro was confused. Kagome pointed to Miroku.
"See? You showed Miroku who's boss!! He came back to camp all scared.", Kagome laughed, "It was funny!"
Zuro wasn't amused though. She didn't see Kurama anywhere at camp. While Kagome was still talking to her, she interrupted.
"Where's Kurama?", Zuro asked, still looking around the camp.
"He went on a walk a few hours ago. He said that he needed to get something from the Ningenkai (Human World).", Kagome looked confused about this. " I thought WE were humans, but hey....", Kagome turned and walked back to where Sango was with Miroku.
Zuro looked out into the forest. He left? Does he even plan on coming back?, Zuro noticed then that Shippo wasn't at the camp either.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kurama made it back into the Ningenkai a few hours later. It was now late at night and most of the lights in the houses were out, except a few. One of them was his own house. He lingered there for awhile and almost let himself cry. But stopped when he heard someone else behind him.
"Kurama!! Wait up!!", Shippo's voice came from behind him. He turned around and Shippo jumped on him. Kurama laughed and hugged him.
"Shippo, what are you doing here?"
"I followed you!! You looked sad."
"I'm fine, Shippo, don't worry.", he put on his best smile to fool Shippo.
"I just have to go to my house to get a few things", he actually wanted to just be as far away from Zuro as worldly possible at the moment. He was already hurting enough by seeing Zuro with Miroku, he didn't want to have to face her again. Shippo looked at him as if he knew exactly what was going on, so he stood in front of Kurama and looked up at him.
"Problems with Zuro, huh?", Kurama was surprised that he knew this. Kurama started to walk to his house.
"No."
"Come on, Kurama! I know you better than that! I've lived with you for almost all the years of my life!! I know when something is wrong and what the problem is!", Kurama stopped and looked at Shippo. They were right in front of his house now.
"Shippo. Can we just not talk about Zuro tonight.", Shippo was confused about why he didn't want to talk about the girl he was dead crazy about. Kurama turned toward his house and transformed into his human form. Shippo nearly screamed, but he did topple onto his back and look at Kurama in shock.
"Wh-wha--what?!?! You're a ningen?!?!", Shippo nearly yelled. Kurama just turned to him with those big green eyes of his.
"Yes, I am. I have been for the past 15 years. That's why I haven't been able to see you. But that's a story I'll save for another time. None the less, I'm the same Kurama.", Kurama turned to walk up to his door, when a voice yelled his name in the distance.
"Yo, Kurama!! Wait up!", Yusuke yelled as he and Kuwabara ran up the street with Keiko and Yukina. Kurama waved at them and Shippo hid in a tree. Yusuke and the others made it up to Kurama and greeted him.
"Hey, Kurama! Where have you been? We've been looking for you and the shrimp all day!", (It's obvious that that was Kuwabara). Kurama turned to him.
"No, Hiei is in the Makai right now. I just came back to get some supplies.", it was getting very difficult to keep a smile on his face when pictures of Miroku putting his arm around Zuro and her doing nothing about it kept coming to his head.
Yukina looked at him with concern. "Are you sure you're fine Kurama?", her beautiful voice chimed. Now, Yukina wasn't someone to be fooled as easily as the others. She knew something was wrong. Just as he was going to answer her a rustling came from the trees. Kuwabara pointed at the tree.
"HAHAHAHA!!! I KNEW YOU WERE HERE, SHRIMP!! YOU JUST DIDN'T WANNA FACE ME!!", Kuwabara yelled at the tree. A top flew out of the tree and hit Kuwabara in the head, he fell over and Shippo jumped on top of him, grabbed him by the collar and looked him in the eye.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'SHRIMP'??", Shippo yelled back at him. Everyone screamed and Yusuke pointed his Spirit Gun finger at Shippo. Kurama stopped them.
"No!! No!! Wait!! Don't hurt him!! He's my cousin!", everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Kurama.
"Cousin?!", they all chorused. Shippo jumped off of Kuwabara and onto Kurama's shoulder.
"I usually like ningens, like Kagome and Sango. But these ones are weird.", Shippo whispered in Kurama's ear and he laughed.
"Yes, they are. But you'll get used to them. For now I know that you'll like those two.", Kurama pointed. "Keiko and Yukina.", Shippo looked them over and jumped off of Kurama's shoulder. He walked up to them and held out his hand in that cute Shippo-like way.
"Hi! My name is Shippo!", he smiled. Keiko and Yukina giggled and kneeled down.
"My name is Keiko!"
"And I'm Yukina!", then the two girls took their turns to shake Shippo's hand. Then Shippo wanted them to play with him, so they did. Kuwabara and Yusuke growled at Shippo as their faces turned red in anger.
"Don't worry! Shippo is not romantically interested in either of them.", Kurama assured them. They looked at him. Yusuke believed him, but Kuwabara wanted convincing.
"How are you sure?", Kuwabara asked. Kurama looked over to Shippo then back to them.
"I'm sure. He's already interested in someone back in the Makai.", Kurama smiled and walked up to the tree outside his window.
"Huh? Where are you going? You're just gonna leave Shippo here?", Yusuke asked.
"I'll be back. You guys take care of him, will you?", without waiting for an answer, Kurama climbed the tree and got into his room to 'get some stuff'. He actually lied down on his bed for awhile just thinking. Kurama let the tears form in his eyes. He would never cry around anyone, only when he was alone and there was something to cry about. Now seemed like a good time.
Eventually, he got stuff together, without waking his mother, and he left the house. He had made sure that his tearful eyes were dry before he left though. When he got out of the house he found Shippo and told him it was time to leave. Shippo stopped playing and started pouting.
"Aww.... Already?"
"Yes, Shippo, already. I'm sorry that you have to leave them, but--"
"Hey, why don't we come with you?!", Keiko suggested. Yukina jumped at the idea.
"Yeah!! It'd be fun!! Please, Kurama?", they begged him with their big, pretty eyes. Not like Zuro's though.... Kurama sighed. Then he smiled
"Alright, you can come!", the two jumped up and down and hugged Shippo. Kurama looked at Yusuke and Kuwabara.
"You guys should come too, just to watch after them."
"YES!!", Yusuke and Kuwabara high-fived. Kurama transformed into Yoko Kurama, opened a portal to the Makai and they started their journey back to the others. This will be a good way to keep my mind off of Zuro.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back in the Makai, Zuro was sitting on the ground next to a tree, concerned that she made Kurama mad when she slapped him. And maybe he didn't want to see her ever again.
"Zuro?", a voice interrupted her thoughts. She looked up and saw Hiei, then she looked to the ground again.
"Hi, Hiei.", she didn't feel like being Zuro at the moment. Hiei wasn't the least bit shocked. In fact, he just sat down next to her. She was curious, this was the most social Hiei has ever been with her, he NEVER talks to her.
"Kurama is not mad at you.", Hiei said as if he knew exactly what was going on. Zuro looked at him again with a 'what-are-you-talking-about' look.
"What? How would you know?", she said as she looked him in the eye. Hiei looked her in the eye with a strong amount of intensity in her eyes.
"When he came back to camp--", Hiei started.
"What?! He was out in the forest?!", Zuro interrupted. Hiei made her be quiet as he continued.
"When he came back to camp earlier today- he left a little after you did- he wasn't mad.", Hiei stopped, and Zuro looked at him with curiosity. "He was sad.", Zuro's mouth almost dropped open in surprise. SAD?! HE WAS SAD????
"Why was he sad?", she asked in a more calm voice than the one in her head. Hiei just sighed and the intensity in his eyes lessened.
"I don't know.", he whispered. Then he stood up and walked away. As he left he told her a few more things.
"When he got back, he didn't look sad. But I could tell, I've been with him for a long time. He said that he had to go back to the Ningenkai to get a few things. In his eyes I could see that you are what he was sad about.", with that Hiei walked back to the middle of the camp and jumped into a tree. At least she knows the truth now. She will suffer, but she can get through it.
Zuro sat there, in her spot, for awhile longer. Tears started to well up in her eyes, but she tried her best not to cry. Oh no...... He saw me with Miroku....... Tears then started to roll down her cheek and she was forced to run into the forest so that no one would see her cry. As she ran through the forest and back to the lake that she liked so much she thought to herself. I'm the reason he left!! He thinks I love Miroku...... No!! If only I hadn't let him touch me in the first place!! If only I hadn't let him NEAR me!! Kurama.........
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Somewhere else in the Makai, where Kurama, Shippo, Keiko, Yukina, Kuwabara, and Yusuke were traveling (They had to travel slow, because the others couldn't keep up with Shippo's and Kurama's speed), Kurama suddenly sneezed.
"Bless you.", they all chorused. ________________________________________________________________________
Hey, Minna-san! DANGIT!! Oh, well...... I'll stop eventually. I must like that word alot! ^_^ Anyhoo, the last part of this, where Kurama sneezed, I just had to put it in there to lighten things up a little. LOL... you know that old legend thingie? The one where if you sneeze, then someone is thinking about you? Wait, I'll quote Botan. "Sneezy, Sneezy, Achoo! Someone special is thinking about you!" Yeah! That one! ^_^ I love that! Well, that's what I did with the last part! See!! I added more Yu Yu Hakusho characters!! Wait.... Dangit!! I didn't add Shizuru or Botan!! Oh, well.... I'll add them in later. I'm also introducing more Inuyasha characters next chapter! ^_^ Yay! Well? What did you think about this chapter? You'll like the next chapter better, I promise! Well, tell me how you liked it! R&R!! Buh-bye, peeps!!
PS. You guys should all check out my little sister's fanfic! Usually she is KHearts (I'm gonna make her change her name to that), but the name of her story is "Three Years Without You", it's a good Inuyasha fic so read it! See ya!
~Master Ghaleon~ aka MG aka Tonraibo aka Mik....... the list goes on.....
Zuro: ^_^ M.G. does not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Inuyasha. The crossover plan is still in mind and she is working towards it. (Don't know what the crossover plan is? I'll tell you later.) Anyhoo, she owns what she owns and doesn't own everything else.
