Here's chappy fifteen (dang!!) of A Chance Reunion. Oh, and Karasu8, I
changed my mind and I probably will make a chapter where Shiori finds out
about Kurama's true form. But, in any case, it won't be this one.
A few days after his admittance to the hospital, Kurama was released, the doctors declaring him healed, but puzzling over how he had healed so quickly. Kurama grinned as he watched them try and explain this mystery to his mother. Kuronue and Jeroun stood on either side of him, and the rest of the gang waited back at Kurama's house, promising a party as soon as the kitsune got home. Jeroun was happy and enjoying Kurama's company, but something seemed to be bothering Kuronue. Kurama glanced at his friend.
"Something wrong?" he muttered when Shiori was not looking.
"Your mother was saying, after you were brought in, that you had been trying to tell her something," Kuronue said. "I was just wondering what."
"Nothing," Kurama said, now bothered by the subject himself.
"If it were nothing, what I said about it wouldn't have bothered you," Kuronue said. Kurama gave a half-hearted grin. Kuronue knew him too well.
"Come with me," he said. With a few words to his mother, he, Jeroun and Kuronue were headed out to Shiori's car.
"So what's the deal?" Jeroun, once they had stopped walking.
"I thought that I was going to die when I found 'kassan in the woods, so I tried to tell her . . . " Kurama hesitated at this point, wondering if he should go on. "Everything. About me, about you two . . . but she stopped me." Kuronue and Jeroun stared at him.
"Are you still going to tell her?" Kuronue asked, Jeroun nodding along with him.
"I don't know," Kurama said. "I guess that if she brings the subject up, there's no way to avoid it." He looked from Kuronue to Jeroun, wondering if there was any way his friends could help him.
"You're right," Jeroun finally said after a few moments of silence. "So, if she does ask about that thing you were trying to tell her. . . . "
"Then you should go ahead and spill everything," Kuronue said. "After all you did to her in these past few weeks, she deserves some sort of an explanation." The three of them grinned and nodded. Just then, Shiori came out to join them.
"Are you ready to go home, Shuichi?" she asked.
"Hai," Kurama said. They piled into the car.
Yusuke and Kuwabara had kept their promise about the party. Everyone was there. The list of guests that had arrived when Kurama walked in the door was; Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, Kuronue, Jeroun, Shiori, Atsuko (only because it had been said there would be drinks), Shizuru, Keiko, Yukina, Botan, Koenma, and Jorge. Even Yusuke had to admit he was astounded by the turnout (although he did not word it exactly that way).
"Is everyone here?" Shiori asked over the chatter. Kuronue nodded.
"I think so," he said. "This is everyone we invited at least." Kurama's eyes went wide.
"You invited this many people to a party just because I'm okay?" he asked. Kuronue grinned and nodded.
"Why not?"
"And everyone needs an excuse to party once in a while," Shizuru said from the other side of the room. Kurama shook his head.
"I always knew you were crazy," he muttered to Kuronue. He grinned wider. Suddenly loud music blasted half the group off their feet.
"Who brought the stereo?" Kurama yelled over the noise.
"Dunno!" Kuronue shouted back. "Coulda been anyone!!"
"Great," Kurama muttered, somewhat sarcasticly.
"Can't hear you!" Kuronue yelled as he began to dance to the beat. Kurama shook his head. (He's hopeless,) the kitsune thought. (They're all hopeless.) Okay. REALLY SHORT CHAPPIE HERE!! God, I don't think this thing's even a page . . . Anyway, as much as I hate to end it here, I'm at a stand still. Yes, there is going to be a chapter where Shiori finds out about Kurama being Youko and all, but how? I don't care which, so I'm asking everyone else. Here are your options:
1) Kurama just tells her. Like that "BAM!" it's over.
or
2) The party is attacked by demons and Kurama transforms into Youko to fight.
OR
3) The party is attacked by demons, Shiori is kidnapped, and Kurama goes as Youko to save her.
Erm, one last thing before I end this. The options go from shortest ending to longest ending. #1 would only be about one chapter #2 would be one chapter (although it might stretch to two) and #3 would be the longest, going anywhere from two to four more chapters.
Please review and tell me what you want!!
