"SPIRIT GUN!"
"Still too much power, Aura!"
"I can't help it! I can't control my powers!"
"Yes yeh can, just believe in yourself!"
"I am, Jin! I just can't control my powers!" screamed Aura in Jin's face, "You don't know how it feels to be able to just snap your fingers if you want to and destroy the Makai!" Both glared at each other, sparks almost visible between their eyes.
"Well yeh don't know how it feels to try and train an arrogant bitch like yeh!" he yelled back, Aura pushed him backwards, knocking him into the log pile.
"That's it! I'm out of here!" Aura ran into the woods, Jin sighed heavily and stood.
"There she goes 'gain, runnin' into de woods," he sighed, "She just doesn't understand t'at she can control em, without those bracelets. She's relyed on em to control her powers fer so long that she's forgotten how ta control them 'erself."
Aura continued to run through the follage, not knowing the destination herself. She just followed her will, letting it take her wherever it wanted to go.
'He just doesn't understand the power that I have within me,' she thought, 'He doesn't know the pain that these bracelets have caused me over the years.' Aura stopped in a clearing, where a large waterfall poured into a small lake, the glistening mists shining in the sunlight. Aura flew over, and sat on a rock in the middle of the lake. She looked up at the whisps of clouds in the sky, slowly moving across the light blue space. She sighed and closed her dark blue eyes, thinking back to her parents in Ireland when she was a child. She remembered her father's bulky figure, and his deep voice when he'd yell at her for nearly killing one of his crewmen on accident. Her lithe form trembling at the memory of his face when he yelled and slapped her. Then the calm memory of her sucumbus demon mother filled her mind. The image of a beautiful lady with long black hair and blue eyes, her pale skin seemingly translucent in the Irish moonlight. She remembered the nights when she would just cuddle up in her demon mother's arms and go to sleep.
"Asinthia." she muttered, the name soft on her lips. She noticed a familiar spirit energy comming from the bushes, and sighed. Aura stood up and looked over into the bush, seeing a tuff of red hair pertruding from the green leaves. "There's no need to hide, Jin, I can see and feel you perfectly well." Jin stood up guiltily, and walked over to the edge of the lake.
"Who are yeh talkin' about, Aura?" he asked, she flew over and smiled.
"Asinthia is my mother's name. She was a sucumbus demon, and the only person who ever cared for me in my human life. I don't know if she is still alive now or not. I miss her deeply though, she loved me so much when I was a child, despite being half breed," Aura looked down, tears forming in her eyes as she stared into the lake, "This lake tells it all, my reflection is only half human, the other half is demon. I am not worthy of anybody's love or trust." Jin looked over her shoulder, and sure enough she was right. Half of her reflection was human, showing her hair up in a bun, and her eyes a beautiful dark blue color. Yet, the other half was a demon, showing her hair down and her eyes a dangerous gold color.
"How is that...?!" he started, Aura looked away.
"Possible? I call that lake the Lake of Truth, it shows the true side of everyone who peers into its mystic waters. Everytime I look in it, that is what I see, a half breed that everyone hates and wishes was dead." Jin walked up behind her, and wrapped his arms around her slender form. Aura's eyes shot open, but she had no room to turn to look at him.
"Aura, no one hates yeh, they just don' know the true yeh, like I do now," he whispered in her ear, causing her to shiver, "Yeh loved, and I'm so glad yeh alive. I 'ave never seen such a beautiful 'alf breed before in meh life." Aura closed her eyes, and looked up at the sky.
"But Jin, I've hurt you so many times, not to mention my attitude towards you has been horable." Jin smiled, letting Aura turn to look him in the eyes.
"I don' care, it's yeh bracelets making yeh do that," Jin slipped her wristbands off, oblivious to the young girl, "Aura, I love yeh, no matter what." Her dark blue eyes lightned a small tad, and brightned.
"Jin, I-I don't know what to say." she studdered, Jin placed a finger on her lips, a smile playing on his own.
"Yeh need no words, I can tell yeh feel de same," he took one of her arms gently and showed her her bare wrist.
"Oh my... Jin!" she yelled, he laughed and rested his forehead gently on hers.
"See? Yeh are able ta control them, just remember, that yeh only need to summon 'em when yeh need them. Watch now," he lifted her arm, and she pointed at a tree, "Yeh know what te do."
"Do it with me, please Jin?" he nodded, and both looked at the tree.
"Spirit Gun!" their voices melded together, a normal shot came from her finger.
"Jin! You helped me do it!" she threw herself into his arms, and smiled, "I can't believe it! Oh thank you, Jin! Thank you!" He laughed and returned the embrace.
"Yeh welcome, but it was yeh who did it. Yeh've relyed on these fer so lon', yeh forgot that yeh min' can control 'em." Jin held up the bracelets, and smiled. Tears began to form in Aura's eyes, and she smiled, a true one.
"You're right, thank you," Aura gently brushed her lips against his, "Lets go show Kurama and Hiei." Jin swepted the Irish demon off her feet, earning a small squeak from her, and flew off.
"Alright then, Aura. We'll show em."
***Park, under Aura's tree***
Kurama sighed, and looked up in the tree one more time.
"Will you stop, she isn't comming back," Hiei snapped, "At least I got my tree back." Kurama picked up an acorn and threw it at the fire demon.
"Hiei! That's rude!" Hiei inspected the acorn and snorted, crushing the small nut in his hand.
"I believe it was rude of you to try and hit me with this." he released the dust onto Kurama's red hair, causing the boy to freak and shake his head rapidly.
"Hiei!!" he screamed, climbing up the tree to hit the demon.
"Nice try," he said from the branch above, "But you missed, fox."
"GET OUT OF MY TREE!" a familiar voice yelled, two spirit shots barely missing the two boys. Both got out of the tree, only to see a blur of dark blue and white jump up in it. Both Kurama and Hiei looked up there, their eyes locking onto two familiar figures.
"Aura! Jin!" Kurama exclaimed, both smirked, a chirpy look on their faces.
"In the flesh!" both yelled in their Irish accents. Kurama laughed at how much alike their accents were, despite their age difference. Both jumped down and landed in front of the two, smiling.
"You two are so sil," Kurama paused when he noticed that the gold wristbands were gone, "Aura, your wristbands."
"Are gone forever, thank goodness," she said, a hint of amusement in her voice.
"Wow, only a few weeks and your finished." Jin smiled, and wrapped an arm around her waist.
"You can thank Jin for that one, Kurama. I guess I should be heading to the Makai to face him." Kurama blinked, Hiei raised an eyebrow.
"Him? Who's him?" the fire demon asked, Aura pulled out her golden locket, and opened it.
"My little step brother, Koenma," she said, then closed it back up and put it away, "Ready Jin?" The red-haired demon nodded and picked her up. "Later Kurama, Hiei." Jin took off again, leaving the two demons on the ground. Aura watched as the two became specks in the distance.
"I'm glad yeh aren' affraid of 'eights, Aura." he said, Aura looked at him, smiling.
"So am I." she watched as the scenery became that of the Makai, and as they came upon the place where her step-family worked. Both landed and walked in calmly.
Stamp, stack, stamp, stack, stamp, stack.
"Um, Koenma sir?"
Stamp, stack, stamp, stack.
"Koenma sir."
Stamp, stack, stamp, stack.
"Koenma sir!" Koenma removed his headset and looked at the blue ogre.
"What is it George?!" he yelled, George felt a few inches tall.
"Well, sir. I was wondering if you are even reading through those papers, or just stamping them." Koenma looked at him and snorted.
"What do you think." A low laugh was heard from in front of the desk.
"You're just stamping them. You haven't changed a bit, little brother." Koenma looked up to see a certain Irish half breed standing there. Tears began to well up in his eyes.
"Aura!" he screamed in rapture, Aura bent down on one knee and hugged the young boy.
"Koenma, it's so nice to see you again." she said, tears streaming down her face. She looked at the small boy and smiled.
"It's been too long, Aura. I've missed you so much." he said, Aura sat down on the floor and sat him on her lap.
"So have I, little brother. I want to show you something." His eyes lit up when she showed him her bare wrist.
"Y-your wristbands! Th-they're gone!" he studdered, Aura placed a gentle kiss on the side of his head.
"You can thank Jin for helping me, he's the one who removed them and showed me that I can love again." Aura stood, placing the small boy on her shoulder.
"George!" the blue creature stood up, "Remind me to thank Jin next time I see him for restoring my sister back to normal."
"Yes, Koenma sir." George ran from the room, off to make that note, and leave the two step-siblings alone to catch up. Aura sighed and took a seat on his desk, Koenma jumped off her shoulder and turned into his handsome teenage form. Aura whistled, looked him over, and made a click noise.
"Oh baby. You can make a gay girl drool and a straight guy blush with that body. I wish I wasn't your step-sister now." Koenma laughed, and sat next to her on his desk.
"Funny, Aura, absolutely hillarious." he said, Aura smirked.
"I know, I know. Now, I believe it's high time we catch up on what's been going on since I left."
