Crystal: Hello all, and welcome to my first Yu Yu Hakusho fic! Now, I do not own YYH, and I do not own Harry Potter, and anyone who died in either are alive now, I'm not mentioning names. The term 'Jumi' comes from the game 'Legend of Mana' by Squaresoft, so it doesn't belong to me either. The only character in my use is Oracle, who is a Jumi, all others belong to Squaresoft.
Crystal: Anyway, I would like to dedicate this whole story to the author Siora. I used only three ideas from her story, which you fill find under my favorites list. I used the fact that the team was going to 'protect' someone at Hogwarts, and then something that has to do with demons, but I can not say without giving away the whole plot line. And, I used the idea for them to stay at Grimmauld Place. So, here is the next chapter.
~*~*~
Yukina gasped as Kurama handed her a necklace for Christmas. It had a silver chain, with a fox shaped of silver at the end. It had an emerald for its eye that was showing, and was simply as plain as that.
"Arigato" she smiled, as she tried to clasp it behind her neck. Kurama laughed a bit.
"Here, I'll help you" he said. She turned, and lifted her hair, while he clasped it behind her neck, shivers going up each of their spines as their skin touched slightly. Yukina turned, letting her hair fall, his hand still placed behind her neck. The silky locks touched his fingers, and he pulled his hand away, blushing slightly. They sat for a minute in silence, when Kurama began to open his mouth, and Hiei walked over. He looked incredibly nervous as he looked back at Oracle who kept giving him an encouraging smile.
"Yukina, may I talk to you?" He asked in his usual voice. He sent Kurama a look, and Kurama's eyes widened.
"If you'll excuse me for a few moments" Kurama said. He sent Yukina a small smile, before making his way towards the lavatory. Hiei sat, turning to look Yukina in the eyes. She smiled sweetly at him.
"What is it, Hiei?" She asked, her eyes bright with curiosity and joy. He sighed, taking in a large gulp of air, and then falling into calmness. Well, as calm as he could get.
"Yukina, you know how you've been looking for your brother for the past few years?" Hiei asked quietly. Yukina nodded, not knowing where he was leading with this.
"Well…" Hiei began, trying to find the right words. "I think I know who it is" he said, thinking to find a way to make his words come out in the right pattern. Her eyes brightened incredibly.
"Really?" She asked, her words dripping with hope. Hiei nodded.
"I don't know an easy way to say it…for you to not get mad at me…" Hiei began.
"Why would I be mad at you?" Yukina asked quizzically.
"Yukina…I'm your brother" Hiei said. Her breath caught, and Hiei began to explain everything. "We were both born where you grew up…but seeing as I was a fire demon…and male, they disposed of me" Hiei said coldly. "So, I grew up alone…becoming a thief later on in my life after learning to fight with many others around Makai. A few years back, when I met Yusuke, I was still a thief, but as Kurama's experiences became a link to my brain…I became an ally. Then…there was the assignment that I was not to know of. The one about you, and how you had been captured. When I finally did find out…I was there…if you remember" Hiei said, and Yukina nodded, as her bafflement beginning to clear.
"I didn't want to say anything…I didn't want you getting mixed up my past. That's why I was always so protective around you when you were with Kuwabara…or why sometimes Botan would be in the middle of a sentence, stop, and act all weird. Because I knew she was about to tell you the secret" he explained. He reached under his shirt, and pulled out a necklace with a blue gem shaped as an orb hanging around it. Yukina gasped, and fingered it.
"Then it must be true" she breathed out quietly, before looking up at Hiei, her eyes watering. "Onii-chan!" She cried, as she flung at him and pulled him into a hug. The whole room applauded, as brother and sister were re-united.
~*~*~
"YATTA! Where is my dress?!"
"Oh no! I can't find my left shoe!"
"Where is my hair clip?! SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHERE MY HAIR CLIP IS!"
These were the screams that were heard throughout the tour on the day of the Karaoke contest. The girls were running, getting into costumes, only an hour before hand. The boys were down in the Great Hall already, since dressing was easy for them.
The girls had all their costumes in bags, the ones they all needed, as they walked down to the Great Hall. It was full of students, and looked extremely exciting. They snuck towards the front, where a large stage had been conjured, and they snuck back stage. There were two dressing rooms, one for each sex, and a list of performances on the wall between. The girls dropped their bags in the room before checking the list, and seeing which number was theirs.
"I'm so excited" Keiko squealed, as they sat around on the seats backstage. Suddenly, they heard the crowd outside quiet, and they all turned to see the screen set up for the front stage. Lee Jordan (A/N Lets just say he's there, k?) was standing there, a microphone held to his lips.
"Welcome Hogwarts to the first, annual, Hogwarts Karaoke contest!" He crowed as the crowd cheered. "First up is Pansy Parkinson of Slytherin, singing Dumb Girls!" The lights dimmed, and Lee disappeared from the stage, as a loud sound pounded through the hall. Pansy appeared, her hair back in a hair claw. She was wearing worn, blue jeans, and a deep purple halter, with deep purple strappy sandals. She began singing when the right part in the song arrived, strutting up and down the stage, making hand jesters.
You broke my heart today
I don't know what to say
Can't feel a thing at all
I did not see it coming
Now you're just
A man that got away
I look at the ground and give the sky the middle finger
Something inside says here's a day you should remember
So mark it on the wall
Doing a twirl, her hair flipped out of the clip, and she flipped it back, glaring out at the crowd.
I never believe it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves to seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to somebody else
The lights changed from the red they were, to a light green, her whole body shrouded with shadows. Her body held still, she moved her head in time with the music, and then began walking towards the front of the stage, moving her body at all the right times.
I miss you so much
Can't stand it
You bring out the blonde in me
Cause I'm still hanging on
Even though you done me wrong
I've got the heart to forgive this
But I'd never let you know
What kind of girl would put herself in that position, yea
To think that I could ever buck the system
And I got fooled again
The lights switched to a deep blue, but Pansy was covered in a light blue spotlight for the rest of the song, as she swung her body to the beat.
I never believe it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves to seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to somebody else
Thought I was strong
But I was just dreaming
Kept believing
That nothing was wrong
I thought I knew what was going on
But love was deceiving me
Now I'm just a dumb girl
Yea
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb girl
That's what I am
Yea…
Yea, yea
I never believe it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves to seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to somebody else
Yea…don't
Can't believe this shit could happen to me
Yea, yea
Cause something like this only happens to somebody else
Guess I'm just a
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb girl
That's what I am…
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb girl
With a few more beats to the tune, Pansy ended with her head turned side ways, one hand in the air, and one on her hip. The crowd exploded with applause as Pansy bowed herself from the stage, covered in sweat. She smiled smugly, though her voice had had some extremely high or low points, and she walked down into the crowd to watch the others perform.
During her performance, Sapphire, Opal, and Diana had gone backstage to get dressed, while Ginny walked on stage for her act. Pearl had decided that she didn't want to perform any longer, and would support them with everyone else in the crowd, which pushed the three Dia sisters into next position. I'm not saying that everything was going exact sign-up list here, because some people had special changes in mind.
Ginny stepped onto stage, walking in beat with the already started music. Her hair was up in knots, and her eyes were in a sort of glaring fit. She had on black jeans, and black boots, with a black, long sleeved shirt. It looked as if she had ran through a thorn forest 50 times, with all the little cuts she had in her shirt and pants, and the fake blood she had put all around herself. She stopped her walking a little right of center, and turned with a hair swish to the stage.
(A/N I'm gonna now on cut the songs so it's not like incredibly long. Hope no one minds ^-^;)
No…don't just walk away
Pretending everything's ok
And you don't care about me
Lie…no it's just no use
When all your lies become your truths
And I don't care…yeah
Could you look me in the eye
And tell me that you're happy now? OoOoOoOo
Would you tell it to my face?
Or have I been erased?
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?
Did it really have
Everything you're worth
You can't always give
Something you get
You can't run away from yourself
Could you look me in the eyes
And tell me that you're happy now…yeah
Come on tell it to my face
Or have I been erased?
Are you happy now?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh
Could you look me in the eye?
Could you look me in the eye?
I've had all that I can take
I'm not about to break
Cause I'm happy now
Are you happy now?
Ginny had gone through the whole song, filled with twists and turns and flipping hair, as well as pointing jesters to the audience. She ended in center stage, her body facing to the left, one leg towards the back wall, and one to the audience. Her right hand was out in a jester to the audience, while the left one was posed on her back hip. The audience clapped loudly, and Ginny bowed, leaving the stage.
The curtains closed once more, as the three Jumi sisters hurried out onto the stage, decked out in costumes. Sapphire was in a Cinderella dress, Opal was in a Snow White dress, and Diana was in a Sleeping Beauty dress. They took poses on the stair case they had asked to use, while the up-beat music began. The curtains pulled up, the lights dim, and suddenly, Sapphire was doused in the light. She was standing near the front of the steps, with an attitude on her face. She walked down the steps while singing, her body moving gracefully to the music as she stepped into position on the stage.
Sapphire: When I was just a little girl
My mama used to tuck me into bed
And she read me a story
She ended on her same side of the stage, in a turned position, hands clutching her skirt. Opal walked down next, in the same grace and swing, ending on her side, in a similar position.
Opal: It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory
Now Diana, who had been in the middle, walked elegantly down, swinging with the same passion. She ended in the center, bended towards the audience with her hands also on her skirt.
Diana: I lie in bed and think about
The person that I want to be
Then one day I realized
That fairy tale life wasn't for me
At this part, the girls all pulled, and their princess dresses ripped away from their bodies. Sapphire was now dressed in a sapphire skirt that reached her mid thighs, with a silver blue tank top. Her glass slippers were still on her feet, and she shook her hair loose from the bun. Opal was also wearing a short skirt of black, with a rainbow sparkling halter top that showed her midriff. Her shoes were still in place as well, and she tossed her hair piece away. And Diana was now clad in a pair of tan caprice with a long sleeved, clear top over a yellow halter. They all began in the same dance sequence which they repeated every time at the chorus.
All: I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white unless we're riding side by side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I rather rescue myself
The lights turned a depressing blue, and the girls moved in a graceful, spiritual way to their voices and the music.
All: I can slay my own dragons
I can dream my own dreams
My knight in shining armor is me
And I'm gonna set me free
All: I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white unless we're riding side by side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I rather rescue myself
They continued the chorus two more times, before falling back into position on the stairs, where the curtains closed. The audience cheered with all their might, and the friends of the three girls congratulated them as they walked off from behind and into the bustling audience with the other performers. Ron was up next, and he was dressed all in black, his hair spiked, and chains hanging all around from his body.
He didn't dance much, just moved along with the music of Kryptonite and sang very well with it. Being the first boy to perform, he received incredible applause, and walked back off the stage with a large goofy grin adorning his face, and everyone watched as he was mobbed when he walked into the audience. The girls laughed, but Oracle for once didn't.
Draco was eyeing her as he walked on the stage, and shiver went up her back. Her mind froze as she thought about Christmas night, and she immediately began to search out Hiei.
"Next up is Draco Malfoy of Slytherin. It seems he's changed his song now, to 'Is She Really Going Out With Him'" Lee crowed as the curtains opened the reveal Draco in jeans, a shirt, and jacket that went to his knees. Some of his hair was hanging in front of his eyes, will the rest was spiked up and off to the sides. He had black glasses over his eyes, but down just a little so you could see the top of them.
His leg was propped up on a four legged stool, his arms crossed, and a grin on his face. The music started, and he tapped the foot on the stool.
Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold
Look over there
At this time, he points to the back of the room, and everyone looks, before shouting 'Where?'
There goes a lady that I used to know
She's married now or engaged or something so I'm told
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going on around here
Around here
He kicked the stool across the stage as he jumped into the chorus, and it caused some of the girls in the audience to scream. He began to walk towards the audience in a strut, swinging his head from side to side.
Tonight's the night when
I go to all the parties down my street
I wash my hair and I kid myself
I look real smooth
Look over there
He pointed once more to a wall in the hall, and everyone turned, shouting out 'Where?' But while their eyes were there, his were on the side of the stage, where he could see Oracle saying something to Hiei, her eyes a little frightened.
Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
They say that looks don't count for much
And there goes your proof
And as he jumped once more into the chorus, he flipped backwards, putting a scowl and angry look across his face as he walked down the left side of the stage, moving to the left backwards.
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going on around here
Around here
And as he came into the last verse, he stood completely still at the front of the stage, turning his head with a glowering look in his eyes.
But it looks could kill
There's a man who is marked down as dead
Cause I've had my fill
Listen you
Take your hands of her head
I get so mean around the scene
Hey, hey, yea, hey, hey
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going on around here
Around here
He turned his back, and began strutting to the back of the stage, repeating the same lines over till the music faded and he disappeared through the curtains.
Is she really going out with him?
Around here
Around here
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really going out with him?
The audience thundered in applause, and Draco sent a sly smile to Oracle, who narrowed her eyes. He lifted the collar of his shirt, and disappeared down the steps, and Lee announced a five minute intermission.
~*~*~
Crystal: Another chapter done. Now, as you can see, I've decided this will be a Hiei/Oracle story. They have a lot in common, and Hiei will like her. I mean, she can fight for herself, and she likes to taunt Yusuke (or make his worst dreams…realities.) Yea, that's more like it.
Crystal: Now, my friend *DreamerStarM* said that a Yukina/Kurama coupling would be original, and I like original, so I'm going to lean towards that. Besides, Hiei would trust Yukina more with Kurama then with Kuwabara.
Crystal: So, now that that's all clear, I would just love some reviews and feedback. And the next chapter will be out ASAP, or as fast as I can type. 18 stories now, I got rid of a few that weren't doing to well, but it's still a lot to handle. I updated PO8, aren't the readers of that just so happy?
Crystal: Ok, either the chapters are gonna be really long, or really short, and gomen for not putting in all the songs fully or changing them on you. They were last minute decisions, so, GOMEN! Also, I have posted an original fic called Steps on fictionpress.net. It's all under the same name, and it's only one chapter so far, but still. I also posted a few more fics, as many people have noticed and read. Arigato to all of you. And again, gomen for such the long wait. I have a three day weekend coming up, but I have to post the next Akuna chapter before I can even start on the next chapter of this, just to say. Thanks for your understanding!
See ya around…
