Hatoko: Hello again! This is the first real chapter of the fic, and will be mainly focused on Kurama and the girls that he's supposed to watch over.

Fuyu: *looks over Kurama* I wouldn't mind being watched by him...

Hatoko: Yeah...He's such a hottie...

*They stay silent for some minutes admiring Kurama's perfection*

Hatoko: Anyway, here is a list with the characters names and which sailor they will be. There's something I have to tell you guys: I'm using the 'Sailor Moon Stars Manga version' of Serena, who is more mature and better fighter. You'll see that I changed them physically, but they still keep something from the original SM characters.

Yuri Haruno = Serena Tsukino

Akane Natsuno = Rei Hinno

Sumomo Fuyuno = Minako Aino

Naru Akino = Amy Mizuno

Hatoko: Shadowkitsune and JupiterLover, thanks for the pairings ideas, but I already have the fic formed in my mind. But I promise that on my next crossover, Amy will have Kurama all to herself! JupiterLover, I'll try to make a Makoto/Kurama fic, because I like the pairing, too. But I can't make a Usagi/Yusuke! Yusuke belongs to Keiko-chan. But please, don't give up from my fic!

Fuyu: Stop that. You look pathetic.

Hatoko: *sweat-drop* Anyway, thanks to everyone who reviewed and on with the fic!

New Moon Cycle

By Hatoko

Chapter 1: Sailor Moon!

Screams.

She could her many screams. Screams of many persons.

Screams of dieing people.

She was standing on the middle of a battlefield. There was an army fighting against something. They weren't fighting against real people, they were fighting against shadows!

They were losing. And there was blood everywhere. Every time a shadow devoured someone, it left a trail of blood behind. She stared, horrified, as a soldier was slowly devoured by the strange shadow being. It was as if the thing was savoring its victim. She screamed in terror and ran as fast as she could.

There! Ahead of her was a magnificent castle! She was sure it would be safe to go there. It had to be!

She entered the castle and suppressed a scream. Before her were ten corpses. Nine were from women and one was a man. One of the women had long blonde hair and her white dress was drenched in blood. She was holding something very tightly. It looked like a stone.

She walked over to the woman and was about to see what it was when...

Beep Beep Beep!

"Nooo...Please say it's not true!" A girl with blonde hair lazily opened her eyes and looked at her alarm clock. Time to get up to spend some 'wonderful' hours at school.

'The world would be a much better place if school didn't start so early!' She thought, turning the alarm off and getting up. She looked around her room, as if trying to situate herself. Sighing, she made her way to the bathroom for a quick shower.

"Yuri-chan! Are you awake?" Asked her mother through the door.

"No. I'm sleeping in the shower." She answered. She wasn't on a good mood after that strange dream.

"Good. I'll make you breakfast."

"Thanks." She finished her bath and looked at her reflection. Her hair was dripping with water and her dark brown eyes were still sleepy. She ran her hand over them and blinked a few times before start brushing her teeth.

Going back to her room, Yuri put the Meiou High school uniform and started brushing her hair, putting it on a high ponytail. Looking over her clock, she saw that she still had plenty of time to get to school.

She went to the kitchen, where she found her mother and father eating already. She smiled at then.

"Good morning."

"Good morning, sweetie." Said her mom, handing her a plate "Serve yourself."

"Thanks mom." Yuri sat down and started eating. For some reason, she just couldn't take the dream out of her mind!

"Yuri-chan, are you alright?" Asked her mom "You're so silent!"

Yuri looked at her mother and smiled "Nothing, mom! Don't worry!" She finished her breakfast and grabbed her things "Well, I have to go! Can't be late for my first day at school! Bye!"

"Bye!" Her parents said in unison while she opened the door. She started walking towards Meiou High, forgetting her dream for a while and remembering how she would miss her friends that had went to other schools. Most of her friends had gone to Juuban High, refusing to study to try Meiou High, one of the most difficulty high schools to get in. Yuri herself had only gone to Meiou High because her parents insisted a lot. She had convinced her two best friends to try it with her, thought.

"Hey, Yuri-chan!"

Yuri looked behind her and smiled. Sumomo, one of her best friends, was running towards her, smiling as well. That is, until she tripped and fell.

"Sumomo-chan!" Yuri screamed and ran over her friend. Sumomo raised her right hand and did the peace sign.

"I'm okay..."

"Really, Sumomo-chan, you should be more careful." Yuri sighed, picking her friend up "Someday you will end up getting really hurt!"

"Yeah, I know. It seems like my clumsiness grew a lot on this vacations."

"You're not clumsy. You're only a distracted person."

"Yeah, right." Sumomo smiled at Yuri and held her hand "So, let's go to hell on earth!"

"Alright!" They started walking towards school again. Sumomo was telling Yuri about her vacations. They were entering Meiou High when they heard a bunch of girls giving little screams of excitement.

"It's him! It's him!" They were looking somewhere behind them and Sumomo looked over her shoulder to see what it was and Yuri raised an eyebrow at her reaction. Sumomo was practically drooling. Yuri turned around to see what had gotten her friend in such state and was inclined to drool herself.

Walking by the street, one hand in his pocket and the other over his shoulder holding his school bag was the hottest guy she had ever seen. Long red hair and bright emerald eyes with a casual look on his face, the guy went past her and the others girl without even blinking. The bunch of girls went after him.

"Yuri-chan, did you see that guy?" Asked Sumomo.

"Yeah...Do you know who he is?"

"OF COURSE I DO!" Screamed Sumomo at the top of her lungs, making Yuri jump in surprise "HE'S SUUICHI MINAMINO, HOTTEST GUY TO EVER WALK ON THIS PLANET!"

Yuri clasped her hands on Sumomo's mouth a little too late. Shuuichi Minamino had heard Sumomo's yell and turned to see what had happened. He had raised an eyebrow at Sumomo's last statement, but went on his way. Yuri's face was as red as a tomato while people stared at them.

"Sumomo! Why did you scream like that?!"

"Sorry, Yuri-chan!" Sumomo said, blushing "I don't know what I was thinking!"

"No wonder. You don't think anyway." Yuri and Sumomo turned to look at the newcomer.

"Akane-chan!" They both ran to their friend and hugged her.

"Hey, you two are strangling me!" Yuri and Sumomo let go of her and took a better look at her friend. Akane had long, wavy orange-red hair with amethyst eyes. She had the most different looks from all three, since Sumomo had black hair and blue eyes that had a nice effect with her pale skin "So, are we going in or you two prefer to ditch class?"

"Are you crazy? We can't miss the first day! It's the most important one!" Said Sumomo, outraged.

"Ah, I don't know. I'm not really looking forward for classes..." Said Yuri, playing along with Akane "No one would know, Sumomo-chan..."

"Wha-?!"

Yuri and Akane started laughing at Sumomo's incredulous face. She could be extremely innocent sometimes "Sumomo-chan, we're kidding! We would never miss the first day at school!" Smiled Yuri. Sumomo blinked and the pouted.

"Mou! You guys are very mean!"

"And you're very naïve." Smiled Akane. She loved to tease Sumomo every time she could "Besides, do you really think I would let the chance to see Suuichi Minamino skip that easily? No way! Now, let's go in!"

The trio walked inside the school and found their room without problems. When they entered the classroom, thought, Sumomo gave a loud shriek of happiness, making everyone on the room to look on their direction.

"Su-mo-mo! What is it this time?" Hissed Yuri.

"Same thing as before!"

Yuri looked around the room and saw him. Suuichi Minamino was sitting by the window, looking at them. Yuri blushed and elbowed Sumomo lightly.

"Stop drooling over the guy!" She whispered.

"Say that to Akane, too."

Yuri looked at Akane and saw her friend in the same state as Sumomo. Rolling her eyes, she grabbed their bags and chose three desks. She took her notebook out of her backpack and started drawing while she waited for her friends to snap out of lala land.

Kurama tried his best to ignore the two drooling girls. He was used to girls worshipping, but these two were just too much. He opened his notebook, where he had hid the files and looked at the pictures. He sighed when he confirmed those girls were indeed the ones he should be watching.

After what seemed to be a lifetime, the two girls snapped out of their dreamland and sat at their desks, sending furtive looks in his way. Kurama focused in feeling their auras. The three of them had strong powers, he could tell. Sending a little of his own aura in their direction, he was a little surprised when the redheaded repelled with her own. The one named Sumomo didn't notice, while the other only raised her eyes and looked at his direction.

The teacher entered the classroom and everyone went silent. The woman smiled at them and introduced herself.

"Good-morning, class. I'm Miss Hibari Oyamada, and I'll be your teacher this year. I was informed that we have three students who skipped one grade, they are..." She read a paper "Miss Yuri Haruno, Akane Natsuno and Sumomo Fuyuno. Ladies, could you please raise your hands?"

The three girls raised their hands and Miss Oyamada smiled "Very well then, let's start with our math class!" Oyamada-sensei started writing things on the blackboard while the students copied.

'So that's why they're at my classroom even though they're fifteen.' Kurama looked over the girls again. Akane was looking bored already and Sumomo was copying what the teacher was writing. Yuri, on the other hand, seemed to be mesmerized by something. Frowning slightly, Kurama looked in the direction the girl's eyes were fixed.

She was looking directly at Oyamada-sensei. Kurama wondered what could be wrong with the girl. He looked at her until she noticed the words written over the blackboard and started writing. Kurama narrowed his eyes slightly, but decided to let it drop.

"Miss Haruno?" Called Oyamada-sensei "Would you be so kind as to come to the blackboard and solve this problem?"

Kurama noticed how the girl fidgeted uncomfortably at the teacher request, but nodded. It wasn't a complex problem, but it would take a while to solve. He noticed that Sumomo and Akane exchanged worried looks. Obviously, math wasn't Yuri's strongest subject.

Yuri sighed, looking at the problem. Remembering the process to solve it, she started to work. After a few minutes, she handed Oyamada-sensei the chalk. The woman smiled at her.

"Very good, Miss Haruno. Your answer is correct."

Breathing a sigh of relief, Yuri went to sit on her desk, smiling at Sumomo and Akane. Before she sat, she looked around the classroom and was a little surprised to see Suuichi looking at her. Their eyes met for a while and Suuichi gave her a little smile. Yuri blushed and looked away, sitting on her desk.

Class went down smoothly, and lunch break came sooner than expected. Yuri, Akane and Sumomo were outside the school building, sitting under a sakura tree.

"Mou, when the teacher called me to solve that problem after Yuri- chan I thought I was going to die! I hate math!" Sumomo complained. Akane and Yuri nodded at her last statement.

"But I hate Japanese much more!" Said Akane "It's so complicated!"

(A/N: Japanese for them is the same as English for you.)

"I don't know, I don't like math and Japanese either, but the subject I hate the most is Physical Education." Yuri said. Akane and Sumomo looked at her in disbelief.

"From which planet were you born?" Akane said.

Yuri raised an eyebrow at her friend "What?! I don't like to do physical effort!"

"So, you're lazy." Sumomo stated.

"Exactly."

"You're weird. Everyone should like P.E!" Akane said "It's the best subject in all the world!"

"No, it isn't! I like Home Education much better!" Interrupted Sumomo.

"Home Education is the best subject to brainless girls like you who only want to stay at home taking care of their children while men continue to control most part of society!"

Yuri sweat-dropped. Sumomo and Akane had started another argument.

"I'm going to the bathroom and I'll be right back." She said, getting up and heading for the bathroom.

Yuri entered the bathroom and leaned on the wall. She looked at her reflection on the mirror and went over to it, touching the cold surface. Sighing, she splashed water on her face.

'What's wrong with me today?'

Looking at her reflection again, Yuri's eyes got huge with astonishment. She could have sworn that for one moment a shadow had crossed the bathroom. Yuri hastily turned around, looking for signs of any other person.

There. She had seen it. Moving on the far corner of the bathroom was a strange shadow. The shadow form wasn't of anything inside the place. Suddenly, it started coming towards Yuri's direction. Gasping, the girl ran away, the shadow just behind her.

Yuri ran as fast as her legs could carry her. She could fell the thing behind her. For some reason, Yuri knew it was like one of the shadows in her dreams. She got out of the school building, but didn't go after her friends. She started going towards the school woods, even thought a voice on her head was telling her it was a stupid decision. It would only make things easier to the shadow thing. However, Yuri ignored it.

Kurama had just finished his lunch and was about to pass the school's wood when something caught his eyes. Looking at the commotion, he was surprised to see Yuri Haruno running at top speed. And even more when he saw what was chasing her.

He dashed after the girl, who had just got inside the woods.

'That's it! I'm going to die just like those guys in my dream!' Yuri though. Thank God she didn't trip. Even without liking P.E, Yuri was a good runner. She racked her mind for something that could help her, but nothing useful came. Looking over her shoulder, she came to a halt when she saw that the shadow had disappeared.

'Maybe it gave up.' With a sigh of relief, Yuri started running back. She was so happy she didn't notice someone coming in her direction, which resulted in her bumping with the person, sending them to the wood's floor.

"I'm so sorry!" Yuri looked at the person and blushed. Suuichi Minamino himself. "Forgive me, I'm such a walking disaster!"

"It's okay. I'm alright." Suuichi smiled at her and stood, offering her a hand "I saw you running away from something and came to see if you needed any help. Did something happened to you?"

"N-no. I don't know what I was thinking." She answered.

'Great time to stutter. He must think I'm insane, running around like that.'

He looked worried. 'That's odd. Why would he be worried about me?'

"Well, let's go back then." He said. Nodding, Yuri started walking with him. An uncomfortable silence fell between them, but he didn't seem to mind at all.

'Of course he doesn't mind, you dork! The guy just met you!' Yuri scolded herself. Sneaking a glance at Suuichi, she caught him doing the same to her. Blushing, she turned her gaze to the floor.

"Your name is Yuri Haruno, isn't it?"

"Ah, yes. You're right." Yuri said. She wasn't very good at talking with people from the opposite sex. She was really shy around boys.

"So, Haruno-san, why did you skipped an year?"

She looked at him and smiled "Please, don't call me Haruno-san. Yuri will do."

He smiled at her "Very well. Why did you skipped an year, Yuri?"

"I didn't skipped it. In fact, I started school one year before the normal age. That's why I'm on the same class as you, Minamino-senpai."

"Senpai?" He asked.

"Yes. You studied here before me, so you're my senpai." She smiled at him.

"That won't do, Yuri. If I can call you Yuri, you must call by my first name, too." Suuichi said, smiling.

"Suuichi-senpai?" She said, blinking at him.

"If you want to." He smiled at her.

"Okay, then. Suuichi-senpai!." She said, giving him a smile. She was starting to feel extremely at ease with him. Maybe they could be friends.

"YURI-CHAAAANN!!!!!"

Yuri and Suuichi looked at the direction of the scream. Running towards them were Sumomo and Akane.

"WHERE WERE YOU?! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW WORRIED I WAS?!" Screamed Akane grabbing Yuri by her shoulders and shaking her.

"Forgive me, Akane-chan!" Yuri tried desperately to get free of Akane's hold "I didn't mean to worry you!"

Akane let go of Yuri, panting "Don't you ever DARE to do that again!"

"Jeez, Akane-chan, why are you like this?" Asked Yuri "Honestly, you're overreacting!"

"That's because you don't saw what happened just before we found you!" Said Sumomo. She was pale and trembling.

"What happened?" Asked Suuichi. Only then did the two girls notice him. Akane blushed a deep red and Sumomo got star in her eyes.

Sighing, Yuri snapped her fingers in front of their faces. Akane and Sumomo blinked and started telling them what happened.

"Well, you went to the bathroom, right? After we came to conclusion that none subject was really good, since all of them involved a teacher, and nothing that involves a teacher is a hundred percent good, we went after you..." Started Akane.

"...But then we saw a commotion and went over to see what it was about. There was an ambulance and a lot of people were crying. When we got closer we saw the paramedics putting a girl inside the ambulance. Her eyes were wide open and she was petrified. And she had blood all over her school uniform." Sumomo shivered.

"A boy mentioned that she was found in the bathroom, and you were taking too long to come back. We went after you, but when we got to the bathroom...Something...attacked us. We ran away, but there was no sign of you. We ran all over the place looking for you!" Akane finished.

Yuri's eyes were filled with fear. The shadow had seriously injured a girl and attacked her friends. This couldn't be good.

"The thing that attacked you two was, by any chance, like a shadow?" Suuichi asked.

"Yes, how do you know?" Asked Sumomo.

"The same thing was chasing after Yuri." He said looking over to the said girl.

"What?!" Sumomo and Akane shrieked. Sumomo hugged her friend while Akane paled.

"Don't worry, I'm okay. For some reason, the thing gave up and stopped chasing me when I got inside the woods."

"My God..." Sumomo breathed. Yuri hugged her friend back. She knew how easily impressed Sumomo was. They stayed in silence for a few minutes and then the bell rang.

"Do you think they will continue with classes after what happened?" Asked Akane.

"Probably" Said Suuichi.

They went back to class and Suuichi proved to be right. Oyamada- sensei didn't dismiss them for the rest of the day, saying that it would all be okay if they didn't wandered around only by themselves.

"Will she survive?" Asked a boy.

"Of course she will." Said Oyamada "She only lost some blood, but she will recover in no time. However, if someone knows about something that can be related to this, please tell us."

Yuri looked at her friends and them at Suuichi. He had his hands entwined in front of his face, his chin resting on top of them. He didn't make any move to tell the teacher what had happened. Yuri looked at the teacher. Would she believe her if she told the incident inside the bathroom?

'She won't...'

Yuri kept silence. So did her friends.

Kurama grabbed his things and got out of school. When he was sure no one was looking, he jumped up to a tree and waited. There they were. Yuri, Akane and Sumomo were going back home, he supposed. He waited for them to get to a safe distance and started following them. They were walking in silence, each of them lost in their own thoughts.

"Guys, this where I leave you." Sumomo said.

"You know what, Sumomo-chan? I'll walk you home." Said Yuri. She didn't want to leave her friend alone.

"Yeah, I'll walk you home too." Said Akane.

"Thanks!" Sumomo smiled.

After leaving Sumomo at her house, Yuri and Akane started making their ways to Akane's house.

"Are you sure, Yuri-chan? It will get dark soon." Said Akane.

"Yeah. Don't worry, Akane-chan."

"As long as you call me when you get home..."

"I will."

Yuri left Akane in front of the shrine where the girl lived and waited until the girl had climbed the staircase.

Kurama watched as Yuri started making her way home. It was already dark, and a full moon was hanging in the sky. He looked at the girl face and saw that she was a little apprehensive. She had started to walk faster and was holding her school bag so hard her knuckles were white.

Yuri had the strange sensation she was being followed. She had started to walk faster, cursing herself for not heading straight home. She was practically running, and the streets were strangely quiet and empty. She looked around her. The streets lamps gave very little light. She took a deep breath and quickened her pace.

Kurama wondered how far away her home was, since his own mother would be worried with him if he didn't go home soon. He saw when Yuri turned a corner and was about to turn it too when he heard her scream.

Turning the corner, he saw Yuri surrounded by the strange shadows. He was ready to pull a rose from his hair when Koenma's voice erupted in his mind.

'Don't, Kurama. Let her take them by herself.'

'She'll get killed. She isn't a sailor.' Kurama frowned. The shadows were getting closer to her.

'Maybe her powers will be awaken now.'

Kurama raised an eyebrow. Concentrating on Yuri's aura, he was surprised to see a sudden change in it. He jumped to the top of a tree and hid behind the foliage, watching as the shadows launched at Yuri.

Yuri screamed. Just as she turned the corner and walked a few steps, shadows surrounded her. Backing up to a wall, she watched in fear while the shadows got closer and closer to her. She felt like she would faint at any minute.

'Don't be afraid, little one. Look inside yourself.' A woman's voice ran through her mind 'Concentrate in waking your powers.'

'Who are you? What powers?' Yuri asked, desperate.

'Concentrate. Look inside yourself.'

'I don't understand! What do you mean?!'

'Do as I say.'

Yuri couldn't believe it. Besides being attacked by shadows, she was losing her mind! However, she did as the voice ordered. Closing her eyes, she looked inside herself.

To her surprise, she saw images forming behind her eyelids. There was a woman. She had long blonde hair, held up in two high pigtails with buns on top of each one. Her gentle blue eyes and smile somehow calmed her.

"Hello, Yuri." Said the woman "My name is Serenity, and I was the Queen of the Moon Kingdom. I was also known as Sailor Moon."

"Sailor Moon?" Repeated Yuri.

"Yes. However, my time as a Sailor Scout has ended a long time ago, and is your time to fight on behalf of the moon to protect this world as the champion of love and justice, Sailor Moon." The woman said, handing her a locket. (A/N: The first one Serena used.)

"What?!" Yuri asked, bewildered "I'm sorry, ma'am, but I don't have competence to fight to protect this world...well, maybe if it has something to do with Greenpeace...or be champion of anything!"

"Oh, don't be silly! Just take the locket." The woman said, smiling a huge smile and waving her free hand at Yuri.

"No way!" Yuri sweat-dropped. Was this woman really a queen?

"Take it or those shadows will have what they want." The woman said seriously "You have to accept your destiny as a Sailor Scout."

Yuri glared at the woman, who looked at her with pleading eyes. She looked at the locket on the woman's hand. Yuri extended her hand and took it. Serenity smiled.

"Now, after you open your eyes say these words to activate the locket power: Moon Prism Power, Make Up!"

"Moon Prism Power, Make Up...Wait! That's such a stupid thing to say!" Yuri repeated.

"Y'know what? Just say it!" The woman said, exasperated "You will know how to attack. Now, good luck!"

Yuri opened her eyes. The shadows were still there, but now she was holding the locket on her right hand. She let go of her school bag and shouted:

"Moon Prism Power, Make Up!"

Kurama watched in awe while a pink light engulfed Yuri. The shadows backed away, and when the light faded he saw her. She was wearing a sailor fuku and her hair was up in two high pigtails, each one with a bun on the top.

'Huh...Koenma?'

'Yes?'

'She's going to fight...in that?'

Kurama could just see Koenma's sweat-drop.

'Yeah...Unusual clothing...'

Kurama turned his attention to Yuri. She looked around her, as if looking for any ideas. A shadow launched at her. She managed to dodge it, but fell ungracefully on her butt. Kurama sighed and pulled a rose out of his hair. Sailor scout or not, the girl had no idea of how to fight.

He transformed the rose into his rose-whip and was about to attack the shadows when Yuri got up. She glared at the shadows.

"You were the ones I saw in my dream last night, killing innocent people. You also attacked a girl and my friends. I'll never forgive you! On behalf of the moon, I'll punish you!"

The shadows launched at her all at once, but this time she was ready. Kurama saw when she concentrate her aura on her tiara and shouted:

"Moon Tiara Magic!"

Sending her tiara towards the shadows, she defeated all of them, except one, who had hid behind her. Taking advantage of her astonishment, the shadow launched at her, and would have killed Yuri if Kurama hadn't picked the girl up and dodged it.

"Suuichi-senpai!" She said. What was he doing here?

He ignored her and turned to the shadow. It ran towards Kurama, who dodged and attacked, slicing the shadow in two and destroying it.

Yuri watched in amazement. That guy wasn't normal.

"Suuichi-senpai..."

He looked in her direction. Time to explain the truth.

'Take her to Reikai with you, Kurama' Koenma spoke in his mind 'We will explain everything to her here.'

~*~*~

Reiha watched the whole fight by a huge mirror with an raised eyebrow. Three cloaked figures were bowing before her. After the boy eliminated the last shadow, the mirror started reflecting the place again. Reiha turned to her servants and eyed them severely.

"Who are they?"

"The girl is Yuri Haruno, fifteen years old. The boy is Suuichi Minamino, but our sources discovered that Youko Kurama's soul lives inside of him."

"Interesting..." Reiha walked over to her throne and sat "I want them eliminated."

"Milady, if I may voice my opinion..." Started one of the mysterious figures "We could convince Youko Kurama to serve you, milady. As for the girl, she's only a weakling."

"Idiot!" Bellowed Reiha "That's the amateur mistake I don't want any of you to make! Don't underestimate your enemy's powers! That girl is the new Sailor Moon, meaning that in no time she'll have great powers! As for Youko Kurama, do you really think he would bow to someone? No! He's the kind of person who tends to ruin all other people's interests if he isn't the dominant part!"

"F-Forgive, milady!" The figure stuttered "I'll never say that again!"

Reiha sat in her throne and breathed deeply. Damn time to the Sailors to be awaken! Her powers would take longer than she expected to come back.

"Very well, it isn't all lost." She turned to the mirror and spoke "Skat!"

Another one of the cloaked figures appeared on the mirror "Yes, milady?"

"You caught the wrong girl, but you did sent me a lot of energy...In consideration for that and the fact that none of us expected Youko Kurama to interfere, I will give you another chance."

"Yes, milady. You're very merciful. I will not disappoint you."

"Good. Now, leave."

The figure disappeared and Reiha smiled wickedly.

'So, that girl managed to sent the scouts and her mother's souls to Earth...Impressive. I shall pay more attention to my enemies relatives from now on.'

~*~*~ End Chapter 1 ~*~*~

Hatoko: Must...Stop...Writing...So...Much...

Fuyu: Eighteen pages...That's the longest chapter you have ever written.

Hatoko: True. You guys, sorry if you don't have enough of Kurama, but I have to wake all the sailors before I get to the real story. Oh, and I need some ideas for the outers and Hiei's girl! If you have any ideas as how they should look and differences from their original personalities, mail me!

Fuyu: Yeah. Remember to give a full description of your character, so Hatoko don't mess up with them.

Hatoko: Shut up! Anyway, read and review! Next chapter, Sumomo and Akane find out about their powers and the answer to why Kurama was able to slice a shadow.

Fuyu: Yeah...How was that possible?

Hatoko: Kurama-kun can make anything! He's just like Seiya, from Saint Seiya! He'll never give up! He'll never loose! He'll never die! He graduated from 'Seiya's School of Unbeatable Heroes' with top grades!

Fuyu: *sweat-drop* Whatever...
