A/N:Let me get this straight, Reiluka will not stay dead. I wasn't planning on killing her but it just ended up like that. You'll see why.
Raining Cats and Demons
Chapter Twenty-Two: Nine Lives
Yusuke joined the rest of the team over by Reiluka. Kuwabara was there also but he was leaning against the wall because of his injuries. Yusuke kneeled next to Kurama.
"Was Koto right? Does she not have a pulse?" Yusuke asked Genkai. Genkai felt Reiluka's wrist for a second. She was about to say no when she felt something. Her eyes widened. She squeezed Reiluka's wrist a little harder. Genkai smiled to herself.
"She is not dead. She should be waking up soon." She said as she stood up. Everyone stared at her wide-eyed. Kurama and Hiei were opening and closing their mouth's like a fish out of water. I forgot that Reiluka was part cat demon. I wonder how many she has lost so far? Genkai thought as she walked away. Hiei grabbed Reiluka's wrist and felt for a pulse. His eyes widened. There is still a pulse! Koto was wrong! He thought happily as his hand moved subconsciously towards Reiluka's hand and held it. Hiei looked up when he felt Reiluka stir. She wearily opened one eye. When she saw where she was she opened them both. Yusuke and Botan jumped back.
"Holy crap! She's still alive!" Yusuke yelled, catching Koto's attention. Reiluka sat up with the help of Kurama. Then she noticed that her hand was warm. She looked down and saw that Hiei was holding her hand. She looked up at him. He looked down and saw where his hand was. He blushed as he pulled his hand away. Reiluka stared at him for a few minutes and then she smiled. Boy his eyes are cute. WHAT! Did I just think that!? I've been alive for five minutes and I'm already thinking stuff like that. Reiluka thought.
"But how can you be alive? I double-checked your pulse and there was none!" Koto said as she walked over to the group. Reiluka's smile got a little smaller. Everyone was looking at her. "Well, supposedly I'm half cat demon so I have nine lives. That was my eighth life." She said as she smiled sheepishly at everyone. They still stared at her.
"Will you quit staring at me?!" She yelled, annoyed with their stares. Everyone quickly averted his or her stares. "Hey announcer lady! Get back in the ring!" One of the demons from the crowd yelled. Koto squeaked and jumped back into the ring. She cleared her throat. "Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that Reiluka of Team Urameshi is still alive!" She shouted happily. Some demons cheered but most of them booed. Suddenly a voice came over the loud speaker. "Next fight, Team Urameshi vs. Team Masho." The voice said.
"WHAT!" Five pairs of voices said at the same time.

Sorry for the short chapter. I couldn't think of anything. I'm sorry for killing Reiluka but I had to put something in here and that was the only thing I could think of at the moment. Thanks for reviewing! I've almost reached thirty reviews. That's a lot in my opinion! Thanks again! Animechick8
