Charmed and Dangerous: Charmed
"Hiei!" exclaimed Yusuke and Kurama at the same time.
Seconds later, Kuwabara exclaimed "Wow, Hiei! How'd you get here so fast?" (Man! Is he slow!)
"Baka." Hiei replied.
"What'd you say shorty?!" Kuwabara yelled. He pulled back his fist to hit Hiei but was interrupted when Kurama suddenly yelled (he must be really angry to yell) "Both of you SHUT UP!"
Everyone fell silent.
In a calmer voice, "We need to find them. I believe we should track down Crystal first. She seems to be easier to find."
"Fine. Let's go to the library." Yusuke said, shuddering at the fact that this would really lower his reputation as a bad boy if he was caught in the library.
All four started walking to the library.
*20 minutes later*
"Finally." Kuwabara sighed.
"Well, if we hadn't taken your 'short cut' we would've gotten here fifteen minutes ago!" Yusuke yelled.
*Meanwhile at the library*
'Phew, this is boring.' Crystal thought while she studied. She had an exam coming up and she needed to pass with flying colors.
Looking around the room, she saw a bunch of familiar faces. The boy from biology, that girl from gym, that hottie from math . . .
She sipped her vanilla coke and let her eyes wander more.
*With the Spirit Detectives*
"Alright. Let's . . . start looking." Yusuke said, his eyes scanning the room.
"I think that's her." Kurama said, pointing to a girl drinking a soda. They all walked over to her.
"Hello, are you Crystal, by any chance?" Kurama said, smiling and taking a seat next to the red-haired girl.
The girl looked up at him, soda still at her lips. She glanced at the three other boys, and her eyes fell on Hiei. Recognition flashed in her widened eyes. She suddenly spit her soda into a surprised Kurama's face and jumped up from her seat.
"Hiei!" She yelled. She ran over and gave him a big hug.
"So good to see you!" She said letting go. She ignored the stares she got from the other boys. Before Hiei could reply, the girl grabbed his hand and started running, saying, "Sapphire will be so happy to see you! Come on, Hiei!"
Hiei was in shock that Crystal had just hugged him and was trying to think of something to say to get her to slow down. Crystal ran down the street, dragging Hiei behind her, with the other three Detectives following closely behind, trying to keep up with her grueling pace. After a few turns, they made it to a large wooden building. Crystal eagerly pushed open the doors. She ran over to the large training ring in the center of the room and stopped. She panted for a second or two, then grinned. Wouldn't her sister be happy when she saw who she had brought for a visit!
The other boys ran in to see Crystal and Hiei standing in front of a large roped off ring that had a girl riding a horse in it. The girl hadn't noticed them yet.
"Damn . . . you're . . . fast! That . . . was a hell of a long . . . way to run!" Yusuke panted.
"Yes, it was." Kurama agreed.
Crystal smiled innocently.
Hiei was deep in thought.
'What am I going to say to her? I haven't talked to or seen Sapphire in over two months because of those damned missions!' He thought about the past month, and how he'd talked to her telepathically, but hadn't seen her in person in years. 'I want to talk to her face to face, then tell her how I think I feel.'
He gazed across the ring, at the young girl riding on a horse, her hair flowing in stride with her horse's movements. Her glossy black hair shined in the lights, like a real sapphire would. Even more impressive, was that she was riding the large white thoroughbred horse bareback, using only a rope tied around his neck to control him.
Hiei snapped out of his daydream when Crystal waved her hand at the girl on the far side of the ring, and shouted, "Sapphire! Your weirdo boyfriend is here to see you!"
Kurama looked down at the grinning girl, and heard Youko Kurama's voice talk to him from the back of his mind. 'She is beautiful and powerful.'
'Indeed. She even has red hair.' Kurama replied.
Youko was silent for a second before he said, 'Her heart will be the greatest thing I have ever stolen.' Clearly, he had already claimed his mate.
'That may be true, but you must wait. You don't want to scare her away, after all.' Kurama said.
'Very well, I will wait.' And then all was silent.
The girl called Sapphire halted her horse, Cyclone. She turned to see who had called her name. She was so deep in training, that she only now noticed her sister standing at the ring's entrance with four boys. She couldn't recognize them from this distance however. She sensed one had two souls that were in turmoil with each other, a boy with extremely powerful spirit energy, and one who was stronger than a normal human, but paled in comparison with the other two. Then she sensed Hiei.
'What did she say?' Sapphire wondered. She had been off in her own little world, her attention completely devoted to her horse, and so she hadn't been able to hear what her sister had yelled.
"Sapphire, I said your weirdo boyfriend is here to see you! Don't you want to come over here and give him a big, french kiss?" Crystal yelled, louder this time.
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SAY?!" Sapphire DEFINATLY heard that time. She turned Cyclone towards her sister and the horse broke into a canter. The gorse was running straight towards the fence where the Reikai Tantei and Crystal were standing.
"I'm so gonna kick your ass, Crystal!" she screamed.
"I'd suggest you all move." Hiei said to the Spirit Detectives as he jumped onto the part of the fence that was out of the horse's warpath. They obeyed.
Crystal however was laughing so hard that tears came to her eyes. It was so easy to get her sister pissed!
Sapphire counted the seconds until the fence would be close enough to jump over. 'Three . . . two . . . one . . . jump!'
She got into jump position and cleared the fence easily.
"I'm gonna blow you to pieces!" Sapphire growled as she jumped off of the horse.
Sapphire leapt onto her sister and they all saw Crystal's surprised face before a swirl of little blue lights surrounded them and then they were gone. Just like that. Then, a few seconds later, they reappeared, Sapphire with a huge grin on her face. She stood and dusted herself off. She smirked down at her frozen sister who still had a look of surprise and terror on her face.
Score: Sapphire-2, Crystal-1.
With a flick of her hand, Crystal was unfrozen.
Yusuke, Kurama and Kuwabara stared in amazement while Hiei was laughing his head off on the fence. An actual nice laugh. Crystal glared at her sister then stood up and dusted herself off also.
Hiei and Kurama examined the girls.
Sapphire was about Hiei's height, and Crystal was as well. The redhead was wearing a white shirt that said "Equistrian High" with light blue jeans. Around her neck was a pendant with a pure crystal on it. Sapphire was wearing a light blue tank top that said "Ask Me If I Care" on it. It was cut short, and about three inches of her stomach showed. Her dark blue hip huggers had holes in the knees. Her long black hair was thrown into a messy bun, with little strands hanging down. She was wearing a necklace with a royal blue sapphire hanging from it. Both were truly beautiful.
"Hiei?" Sapphire asked, as if not believing he was really there. Hiei leapt gracefully off the fence and landed perfectly in front of her, smiling the whole way.
"Hey, Sapph. Long time no see." He said, his ruby eyes holding hers for a minute.
"Where have you been?" she asked, hugging him.
'We'll talk later.' He answered telepathically.
'Alright.'
Crystal grinned and then chanted "Oooh! Sapphire's got a boyfriend! Sapphire's got a boyfriend!".
Sapphire and Hiei blushed deep red.
Then Sapphire whipped around, hand outstretched. Crystal instantly regretted saying that. She was in deep-
Sapphire smirked and jerked her outstretched hand up violently.
Crystal flew thirty feet into the air. She yelped.
"I've told you before, HIEI IS NOT MY BOYFRIEND! GOT IT?!" The angry girl yelled.
"A-alright! Alright! Got it!" Crystal stammered. She was slightly scared of heights.
"Good." And with that, Sapphire let her hand drop, and Crystal started to fall.
She screamed, but stopped when she felt someone catch her. She looked up to see the dazzling green eyes of Kurama staring down at her. She flushed a little pink.
'Charm her.' The Youko inside him pressed.
'No!' Kurama answered.
'Kiss her.'
'No!'
'If you won't, Shuuichi, then I will.'
Before Kurama could stop him, Youko took over.
Crystal was about to gasp when she realized what the fox demon was feeling. Love! 'Oh, no! Not again!' she thought. Her empathy powers were taking over and she wouldn't be able to control herself, let alone remember anything that happened.
White smoke encircled the two when they landed, and Cyclone reared up. Sapphire quickly grabbed his mane and pulled herself atop him. When she calmed the horse, she looked up.
"I see the kitsune is finally making the move to secure a mate." Hiei said with a slight smirk.
"What?" Sapphire said.
When the smoke cleared, she realized what he had meant. Kurama had turned into his Youko form, and was kissing Crystal. And the redhead's empathy powers were making her kiss him back!
"Damn it, Crys! Learn to control your stupid empathy! That's disgusting!" Sapphire yelled as she used her own powers to pull the two apart, and then freezing them.
"Okay. You two can stay frozen for a minute. In the meantime . . ." She turned to the others. "Let me explain my powers. As you have seen, I can freeze and blow things up with a flick of my hand. I also have telekinesis and telepathy. Also . . . what are your names?" Sapphire said.
"Yusuke Urameshi. Biggest punk in Sarasaki Middle." Yusuke said proudly.
"Kazuma Kuwabara, my pretty lady." Kuwabara said, waggling his eyebrows. She made a face of disgust.
"The guy that you froze is Kurama." Hiei said, pointing. "He's the kitsune that I told you about. And of course, you already know me."
"Hey, how do you know Hiei?" Yusuke asked.
"That I will explain over dinner." Sapphire said a bit sourly.
"Your . . . power seems weak. Why?" Kuwabara asked.
"I'm suppressing it." She said. "I'll show you my true power later. Now, I want to show you all my other horses." She waved her hand and Youko and Crystal were unfrozen. Youko turned back into Kurama, and Crystal fell onto her butt with a slight "Oof!" She blinked and looked around. Kurama stretched out his hand and helped her up. She accepted and then dusted herself off.
"Follow me." Sapphire said, leading all of them to her stable.
"Here is my stable. I own twelve horses here." Everyone looked a little surprised. "I have six Arabians, three Thoroughbreds, and three Gypsies. Cyclone here is one of my Thoroughbreds." She said as she led Cyclone into the first stall.
"And now . . ." she said, turning slowly towards the Spirit Detectives with an evil smirk on her face. "It's time to show you Judgment Day. Hehehe!"
