"Urameshi! Look out behind you!" Yusuke turned and dodged as a burst of energy flew past his head. "Whoa" he turned to face his opponent, who was grinning seductively. He turned to Kuwabara, his fighting companion, and they both attacked the demon with their strongest attacks.

"Shot gun!" Yusuke screamed, his fist outstretched before him. The clever Youkai flipped to the left, and prepared to fend off the next blow that was sure to come. "Sword get longer!" Kuwabara's spirit sword stretched, and was close to hitting its target, but missed as she jumped and flitted off. She appeared above Yusuke's head, and came down her long claws visible.

"Hiei, don't you think we should assist them?" Kurama asked, concern in his voice. He, Natalie and Hiei were sitting on a brick wall, opposite of the field where their two team mates were fighting a neko Youkai. She had addressed her self as Suka, and had proved to be a formidable opponent.

Her golden eyes shined, as she brushed her long raven hair behind her. She got into a fighting stance, and ran toward the two weary teens. Her claws glowed gold as she scratched Yusuke's cheek, leaving four bloody marks behind her.

"No, I think they can handle this on their own." Hiei finally replied. "Then again, maybe they can't beat her, but it's still very amusing to watch them try." He smirked that ever present smirk of his. Kurama rolled his eyes. "Wow, what a wonderful friend you are Hiei" he muttered sarcastically. "Their out of practice" Natalie finally spoke. "It shouldn't take them THIS long to defeat her. I mean really, she's only a neko!"

"And a girl at that" Hiei added. Natalie sent him a death glare. "What was that Hiei!?" Hiei pulled one of his legs up to his chest, and rested back on his elbows. "Nothing, all I meant was, if it was any one of US fighting, she would be dead by now. It is a know fact that female demons are weaker that males, so she is weak prey to the strong ones of our race" Kurama and Natalie stared at him in disbelief. "Kami, Hiei could you be any more conceited?! We have had this argument countless times; you and I both know for a fact that Natalie is an upper A class demon, therefore she is very strong!"

"Thank you Kurama, for your comments-" Natalie started. Kurama gave her one of his famous smiles. "BUT, for future reference, keep in mind, that I can fight my own battles! Whether they are physical OR verbal!" Kurama shrunk down three sizes. "As for you Hiei, I'll-" Hiei cut her off, "I never said I was talking about you gaki! I was referring to other demons of the female species." She stared at him, her puzzlement obvious.

'He wasn't insulting me? That's a first. I can never tell with Hiei, he masks all emotions he might be feeling, so It's almost impossible to understand him. "Hey...wait a minute! I'm not a brat!" she whined. Hiei gave her something in between a smirk, and as seductive smile. She felt a fluttering in her chest, and quickly turned away, trying to hide her reddened cheeks. "Baka"

As all this was said, Kurama stared on in sheer curiosity. 'Is it possible that Hiei might like Natalie a little? Well, they DO have a lot in common...they would make a good couple, but their both way to stubborn to admit how they feel. Guess I'll have to help them out a little..' the former Youko thief smiled evilly, as a plan formulated in his mind.

"OK, I'm getting sick of this!" Yusuke voiced, his anger obvious in the way he held his arms up. His left hand grabbed his right fist, his index finger out, in a gun like position. A blue aura surrounded his slim figure as he powered up. "SPIRIT GUN!!" he screamed. A bullet of cerulean colored energy shot from his finger, and hit Suka right in the stomach. She flew back a few feet, and strait into a tree. Her lithe form slid to the ground and lay motionless.

"Took them long enough..." Hiei muttered, as he, Kurama, and Natalie jumped down from their spot on the wall. As they headed toward their friends, they could see they were both holding their sides, gasping for air. "Ok....so why did that girl attack me? What did she want? I didn't recognize her.....so their was no way that she could be looking for REVENGE..." Yusuke wondered.

The sun was slowly starting to sink in a blood red sky, and moon could be seen faintly. "Well, well, well, it appears it is that time of year once more" Kurama whispered, his eyes cast upward at the moon. "What? What time of year is it?" Kuwabara asked, regaining his composure and standing up. "Do you see how he sky is a red color as the sun sets? And how the moon is so bright and full? It is late spring. It is mating season for demons." Kurama answered.

"Demon mating season? But this is the Ningenkai, so why does that matter?" Yusuke questioned, not sure of what he meant. Kurama smiled lightly, "Well, You have never met Suka, correct?" Yusuke nodded. "The reason Suka probably attacked you, was because she wanted you to be her mate."

Yusuke's face fell. "H-her mate? But she didn't even KNOW me! Why would she want to screw me?"

Kurama grinned. "Well Yusuke, you are a very powerful demon, fairly attractive, you would be a good father to her children. You could protect them, and provide for them. The reason why she attacked Kuwabara was because she thought that he ALSO wanted you, and was trying to claim you for her own" Hiei and Natalie snickered as they saw the perplexed looks on the Yusuke and Kuwabara's faces.

"Ewww that's gross!" Kuwabara shivered. "The thought of me screwing Urameshi is just sickening...." "WELL THEN DON'T THINK OF IT BAKA!" Yusuke screamed, whacking the other in the head.

Kurama sighed, drawing the others attention. "I'm so glad I am no longer a demon....and soul is in this human form......when I was still a demon living in the Makai, and it was mating season, I took many mates.......none of which I ever saw again......."

Yusuke laughed, "Ha, Kurama's a player!" "Well at least I could get some..." Kurama retorted. That shut Yusuke up. "Besides, even I was still a demon, you wouldn't have to worry about me. I have learned from my mistakes.....But we SHOULD worry about Hiei and Natalie" they all turned to them. "THEY are demons, so they will be affected by the moon."

"How can they be affected by the moon?" Kuwabara and Yusuke asked in usion. Kurama smirked, almost evilly. "They will both go into heat most likely. Their hormones will be raging, craving for sexual pleasure. It is inevitable, it happens to all demons. And it effects younger demons the most.....we do not know Natalie and Hiei's actual age, but I can tell they are younger then me, and I'm over 300"

"Hey! Do you think you can stop acting like we aren't here!? We CAN hear you ya know!" Natalie asked, her anger evident in her voice.

"Yes Kurama, your going to make a fool out of your self. True, I probably am younger than you, but I have never let my self succumb to the heat of mating season. I, unlike you, can control my self."

"Yea, same here ya old fart! I don't want or need a mate, so just stop talking about it!" Natalie added, crossing her arms.

Kurama frowned. "Youngsters should respect their elders." "Oh my God, please stop. You sound like grandma!" Yusuke shouted, referring to Genkai.

"Yea, I really don't care about all this demon mating crap, cause I'm not a demon. As long as Hiei and Natalie don't screwing each other where people can see, I'm good" Kuwabara laughed, trying to change the subject.

Natalie and Hiei sent him a death glare. "Like I would actually take HIEI as my mate! Jeesh, he isn't worthy of me" Natalie scowled.

"Ooh, shot DOWN!" Yusuke whispered to Kurama who laughed.

Hiei blushed slightly. "Hn. You wish wench. I don't think you'll EVER find a mate with an attitude like you have! And anyway, YOU would never be worthy enough to bear my children. Not that I want any, of course....."

Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara laughed as they saw Natalie turn red. "Well you know what I think? I think-" Kurama cut her off. "Children, its getting late, and dark, lets call it a night and go home"

"Hn" Natalie responded and started walking away.

Kurama sighed. Why did his house mate have to be so stubborn? 'Kami......I should be getting paid to do this.....'

Yusuke and Kuwabara bid them farewell, and started walking in the other direction, where their houses were. Hiei stood next to Kurama, and they started to head back to the red heads house, Natalie walking a few feet ahead of them.

'Hn' Hiei thought as they walked. 'Baka kitsune, thinking I would ACTUALLY take Natalie as my mate.....what a dumb idea.....she's not even cute......' he looked ahead of him, and saw that Natalie had her arms crossed in front of her, her hips swaying too and fro as she walked. Keiko and her had gone shopping one day (even after much protest from Natalie) and they had bought the demon girl some clothes. At the moment she was wearing a light pink t- shirt with a black koneko on the front, and tight, tight dark blue jeans. Tight clothes, that clung to her body, and showed off all her curves perfectly. And even showing a little skin in the front.....showing where she had gotten her belly button pierced. Clothes, that made her look incredibly sexy.

'What am I thinking?!' Hiei screamed inside. 'Thinking of her that way.....even looking at her......hn. What ever happened to 'I can control my urges'?' he cast his eyes downward, a pinkish tint lighting his face. He looked up a little, trying to get one more glance at her. She had stopped walking, and had faced them, hands on hips. Her shirt had a slit in the top, showing a bit of cleavage. The shirt really was clinging to her, and seemed to be riding up the more he looked at her. 'Damn you Keiko.......why did you buy her all those skimpy clothes?'

"Would you two pick up the pace? It's getting hilly out here, and I'm getting tired!" she told them. She bushed a lock of blonde hair out of her eyes, only for it to fall back into its original place. Her Sapphire blue eyes were half lidded, and she smirked at them, sending shivers up and down Hiei's spine.

Hiei's blush became more noticeable as he felt his pants tighten slightly. Oh great, now she was arousing him. Not good. He wrapped his cloak around him and ignored the pressure he felt in his lower half. Wait a sec, weren't they both staying at Kurama's house tonight?
