Author's note: Yes Hiei and Kurama are still demons. This chapter get kind of confusing, just like FLCL. Anyway, I own no one. Enjoy.
Chapter Four
Haruko walked into the house wearing a baseball uniform, she slung her guitar lazily to the side. Kurama's mom came out all dressed up.
"Hello Haruko, nice to see you back from your game, who won?" She asked.
"My team of course." Kurama walked out of his room, he looked at her, not too pleased.
"You're back? I was hoping you left forever." He said.
"Oooo....You know you love me!" She grabbed him and started to rub against him.
"Stop that!" He yelled.
"I'm leaving Shuichi, have fun." His mom left without saying good bye. Haruko stopped and kissed him, then grinned.
"You want me to show you how to hit a baseball?" She asked.
"No, I already know how to." He walked away, she shrugged.
"Okay, I'm going to go practice at the park, you wanna come?" She asked, he shook his head, "Fine, Hiei said he would gladly watch me." She picked u her guitar and opened the door.
"What!?! Hiei is going to watch you!?" He asked.
"Yep, see you." She went outside, he heard her vespa start up and leave. He began to talk to himself.
"What if Hiei likes her? What happens if he tells her and she likes him? I'll never get her!" He ran into his room and found his bat. He then ran outside and tripped on the sidewalk.
"Good going." Someone said. Kurama got up and saw some guy sitting on a scooter, he had sunglasses on and was dressed in a black suit. The thing he noticed the most was his eyebrows, they were huge and odd looking, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." Kurama said.
"You're going to go after her, aren't you?" Mr. Eyebrows asked.
"No, I wouldn't want to." He said, "Who are you?"
"A friend, don't go after older women, they only lead to trouble." Mr. Eyebrows pointed to the sky, Kurama looked up.
"There's nothing there." He said.
"Even as we speak there's a bomb heading towards this city." Mr. Eyebrows looked at him, "Tell your friend they need to swing the bat, one more time. For a hometown fan."
"Okay, I will." He watched as Mr. Eyebrows left. Kurama was going to go to the park, but he decided not to in case he was around. He went into the house, Kanchi walked out of the kitchen, "Kanchi if you can pitch come outside with me." He went outside, Kanchi came out too with a baseball. Kurama tried to hit the ball but couldn't, he played until the sun went down. He heard Haruko's vespa pull up and turn off. She came into the backyard.
"Having trouble Shuichi?" She asked.
"No." He missed again. She walked over and put her arms around him, running her hands down to his.
"I want you to imagine something for me." She said.
"What?" He asked.
"An arch in your heart. Right before a batter bats he imagines an arch in his heart, arching straight into heaven." She said.
"Okay." He nodded.
"Now aim at something, that star." She pointed to a star with his bat.
"But that one is kind of flickery." He said.
"It'll be okay, just remember to swing the bat." She smiled, "Dinner is ready, Kanchi made spicy curry.
"Spicy curry again?" He asked.
"Yep!" Haruko ran into the house and he followed her. Kanchi had laid out their plates on the table and they sat down and ate.
"A hometown fan wants you to swing the bad one more time." He said.
"Well, tell the hometown fan he's getting nothing from me." She said. Once they were done Kanchi took the dishes and washed them. "Come on, time for us to hit the hay."
"Sure." He got up and followed her to his room, "We aren't going to sleep in the same bed are we?"
"Only if you want to." She said seductively.
"No." He said in a disgusted tone. They got into their beds, she fell asleep, he watched her. Her shirt had come undone, his head felt funny as perverted thought came into his head. Then there was a bright beam of red light.

"Commander Amarao, we have the target locked." A women said, pointing to a large grid where a red dot was blinking.
"Good job Kitsurubami." Amarao, Mr. Eyebrows, said, "I knew it would be him."
"Commander, how did this happen again?" Kitsurubami asked.
"I don't know." He paused, "Two bombs and they both come down within a three year span of each other."
********
The next day went by quickly until Hiei met up with Kurama on his way home from school.
"Come on Kurama." He said excitedly.
"Where to?" Kurama asked.
"To the ball park to watch Haruko play." He grabbed Kurama's hand and drug him to the ball park. Haruko was going up to bat, the pitcher pitched and she hit. It went sailing through the sky.
********
Amarao and Kitsurubami were monitoring the activity of the bomb.
"Commander we need to evacuate the city soon." She said.
"I know, it will be entering the atmosphere around ten tonight." He said.
"Do you think she will stop it?" She asked.
"I don't know. If she want Atomsk enough she will." He said, "She might have that boy do it."
"She wouldn't, would she?" She asked staring at his eyebrows.
"Yes, she would." He said, "Start the evacuation."
"Right." She said, "Attention everyone please evacuate that city immediately, this is an emergency!"
*****
A huge blimp hovered over the ball park, sirens went off and lights began to flash.
"Please evacuate the city, this is a state of emergency! I repeat this is a state of emergency!" Haruko grinned.
"Come on boys, you heard it." She grabbed Hiei and Kurama.
"You can go, I'm going to see what the emergency is." Hiei said running off.
"Okay." She took Kurama on her vespa, and instead of leaving the city she went to his house, "Get some rest Shuichi, you have a big night tonight."
"But-" She locked him in his room, he went to sleep after an hour of worrying.
*******
"Wake up, time to go!" Haruko yanked him out of his bed, it was dark outside. They left on her vespa, she took him to the place he wouldn't have ever guessed, on top of Medical Mechanica.
"Why are we here?" He asked.
"That." She pointed to his head, which was now like a red beacon. She grabbed him, "Hold on tight!" She shoved her hand into the back of his head.
"Hey, get out of there!" He protested.
"Ooo, so squishy." She grabbed something and pulled it out, it was a red beam, "Come out!" With a final tug something came out.
"What's that?" He asked.
"You're bat." She was now holding a guitar, an EB-0.
*******
Amarao and Kitsurubami were watching it all on a huge screen, all the women had nose bleeds.
"Oh my God! He's wonderful!" She said.
"He's only a boy." Amarao said.
*******
Hiei sat on the roof of a building with Kanchi, watching the sky.
*******
Kurama was now holding his guitar, he looked around, Haruko was nowhere to be found.
"Haruko!?" He yelled. The sky began to change colors.
******
"It's entered the atmosphere!" Kitsurubami shouted, "Start it up."
******
A large bomb broke free and shot out of a glove like case. Heading straight for Medical Mechanica.
*******
"It's a curve ball!" Amarao said, "He'll never be able to hit it!"
*******
"Good bye out there if he doesn't hit this." Haruko said waving.
******
Kurama stood on top of Medical Mechanica, his green eyes as huge as saucers. It was coming straight for him and then something kicked in. Youko. The bomb was about to hit Medical Mechanica but it was stopped. Haruko jumped up there and was about to assist him, but there was no need. The bomb shot off, clear out of the atmosphere. Youko was standing there still in swinging stance.
******
"He did it!" Amarao and Kitsurubami said.
*******
"Kurama really hit it." Hiei said.
*******
Kurama returned to himself, his palms stung. Haruko rode off with him, to take him home. Laughing for some unknown reason.
*******
"The bomb is neutralized and is on it's way to galaxies unknown!" Kitsurubami shouted.
"Good." Amarao said, he was eating soup when his eyebrows fell off into his bowl.
"Commander, your eyebrows!"
