A/N: WOOT! I keep getting reviews! And I gotta reply to them all now! XDDD
Piper- Thanks for reviewing and I'm more than happy to upload chapters ^__^
Youkodemonlilly- ^-^ Arigato for all the reviews, He he he, bloooooooooooooooood XD XD Kat always falls to sleep cause her low physical strength, you'll see her doing less and less of it as she gets stronger. And NO her long weapons are NOT a plot hole in case you are wondering, almost all of her metal weapons are hollow handled or wood covered in a bit of strong metal.
Alia- ^_^ Arigato, her and Hiei don't get along for a LONG time, he thinks she's a complete idiot, which you can't blame him because she does act like one due to her lack of sanity. * searches for Kat's sanity and finds none. * XD
Alena- I do not appreciate threats, I can only update as much as I type, I know you want more but I've been sick lately and have been trying to get my manga worked on, which isn't a good idea whilst I'm sick but still ^^;
A Girl And Her Muses- ^___________^ Sugar good!
Darkmagicianpeople- XD my first name is common knowledge on the net, hell I know over thirty people with the same first name OFFLINE, I lost track on line.
Okay, for a change I have nothing but small news (Other than the fact that I Actually REPLIED to my reviews, yah, I'm lazy, yah I know it, And I've shown it XP ) I've been working on my site, do NOT use the link I have posted, copy it and enter that place that says "Enter" to make it say "Amainnew" It helps me keep track of how many people enter my site sense I revamped, I'll be updating music and colors and all on it later cause I'm too busy writing drawing and all that stuff right now.
All Bold text means I will explain the word later, so that if you want you can jump to the explanation and back or read it later.
Oh, and I messed up which chapter had the flash forwards, it'll probly be next time.
Well to the fic.

Another girl stepped into the ring. In her Crystal like eyes show Intelligence, her steps where graceful, her long red and orange hair fell strait to her knees. Kat had to double take, The woman was very pretty, even the costume she wore was beautiful, a long dress that went to her knees, it was orange with flame colored feathers for a design, she also had a shawl made of bright red feathers. Kat stepped back, "The legendary demon mage, Ayame."
Kat backed up a bit more as the demon mage smiled. "shit I'm so roasted!"
"I see you have heard of me." The woman said kindly. Kat couldn't help but smile slightly, "Hai, I was in the same mage circle as you."
"I see, so you are Yoh Kathrine." Ayame said so that only they could here. Kat Nodded.
"Ayame of team Kumo Ribon Versus Kat of Team Hikari!" Koto stared. "The committee demands a stop to this battle." A voice said over the loud speakers.
Kat blinked, "Nani?"
Amyame got a look of murder in her eyes as she heard the announcement.
"Please Explain." Koto said blinking. "One of the committee has been killed, we are putting today's last battle on hold." The voice replied.
Kat all but crashed. Ayame blinked, They mean murdered, they cant' even say the proper word, odd.

Kat sighed, she had been training half the day already, in a flurry of anger after the cancellation of her match. The very blood in her veins seemed to be burning with anger, and poison.
There was a sound behind her and a yell of supprise as she swirled around staff in hand, at the other end of her staff was the now slightly bruised Kuwabara. She growled angrily, "What are you doing here, I told everyone to leave me alone, At least if they wanted to stay in one piece, you're lucky I not only heard you but sensed your rough body mass as well."
"Hey! The others told me to come and get you, and Yuusuke said you couldn't just mope around all day!" Kuwabara replied sharply.
Kat smirked, the urge to humiliate the orange haired idiot arose in her mind so much that it was unignorable. "Oh my, maybe they sent you out here so you would get killed. After all, you are an idiot."
"You think they'd do that?" He said in a depressed tone. Kat smiled a bit, "No baka, I don't think that even Hiei would kill you at this point, You're too stupid to kill."
He blinked at her, not knowing what to think of how she said it, though the last bit was a some what serious joke, the rest was fully sincere. "Let's go back, I'd rather not be alone with an idiot like you in a forest, Your stupidity my be contagious." She said laughing as she dispelled her staff.
Kuwabara just blinked and followed her.
She was going to die, or at least she felt like it, the air in her lungs was near exhausted. What had she done to deserve this? "Damn you! It's all your fault! She would still be alive!"
She cried hearing that through the water, her mother's angry voice brought forth the tears which blended with the object which would have been her death had it not been for what happened next.
There was a scream, a moment later and she would have been too far gone to hear it, too far gone to hold it together. The last thing she saw was the face of her oldest cousin frantically saying words she could no longer hear as she was being pulled from the water.
Kuwabara looked over at the red head who was so deep in her memories she was almost see through. He blinked wondering what could make a person look so sad, not even the death of a family member could leave that look on a person's face. That look made atsuko's tears after Yuusuke's death look like a joy ride. Even he was concerned. then he ran into a tree.
Kat looked to him in a slight daze from being in her own mind, she just blinked at him, "Not only are you stupid you seem to be blind."
She laughed a few seconds and all but twirled off, humming a spine chilling tune, a nocturne.

Sorry for the short chapter, and in case there was any confusion the italicized words in this one where flash backs, Kat finished the match but I would have had to find a way to up the rating, my original idea was so painfully detailed that I, the least mentally squeamish person in know of, would have thrown up. It was that detailed in the attacks and what they did. And anyone that knows me knows that I am mentally a blood luster when it comes to the color, and really don't give a damn about the smell. So as you can tell it was BAD.
The next chapter should be out soon, I plan on three or four more chapters, then you'll get to the parts where things go WAY off from the series, in which all frame of time is screwed to hell and back, aka, I CAN MESS THINGS UP AND NO ONE CAN GET MAD YAY!! lol, Actually, what it really means is I can finally use full creative license.
Mage Circle- A mage circle is a bunch of mages with similar training techniques or magic, it's common for a mage to join one because all messages are mentally sent to everyone in the circle, the name comes from the original Mage circle, a literal circle of mages that practiced magick Together.
Majick(Mashi-ke)/Magick(Mag-ickk) - In this fiction Magick/Majick is the dark magic that is known to destroy things quickly, NOT to be confused with blood magic that normally takes over the user and forces them to kill.
Blood luster- A person, more often a male than a female, That is so attracted to the smell and/or the color of blood that they have little or no control over killing or not after their, or their opponents blood has been shed in battle. It is rare for a female to inherit it through magic or some other form of supernatural heritage, the only exception is the lineage of Yukiki Akaitsuki. ( Keep in mind that the author only likes the color of blood, but would not kill the get it, that's what she has colored pencils for, now if she can't find any gods help us all * Laughs * She'd be seen useing CRAYONS)
Blood Mage- This form of mage is ALWAYS a curse or a hereditary outcome, A blood mage becomes more powerful as their blood is spilt, but often a blood mage has a VERY fast pulse at all times and thin blood, The main cause of a blood mages death is bleeding to death, luckily blood mages have three physical lives.
The Yukiki family curse- Yukiki Akaitsuki Cursed by her mate, all of her children would be blood lusters, and all after them unless born under proper circumstances (Will be explained in a later story or chapter) will carry on the curse. Mixing demon blood with the blood of the Yukiki family causes the off spring to be not only a blood luster but a blood mage. Any mages born through the Yukiki family aligned to light are not blood lusters, but are death lusters.
Akaitsuki- A dark mage with a foul soul, Her and her descendants are cursed due to the fact she murdered her mate who, after his death, used his soul to curse the family.
