Disclaimer: I don't own YYH. Toshihiro Togashi does. And I don't own Racada
or Matthias. They own themselves. But I do own Ari.
Notes: I don't' really have any notes. Let's just say I'm in a very fluffy mood right now. Yeah, yeah. So Kurama's a bit OOC. Who cares? Oh, crap. I'm starting to sound like Tetsuo. Those of you who don't read Shonen Jump, I pity you. I really do. By the way, I have a new fic, called Gamers Choice. It's a Hikaru no Go fic. You should go read it.
Blood Sweat and Tears
Chapter 4: Welcome Home
Ari followed Kurama down the halls of the palace in Reikai. For an instant, she thought she remembered running down that hall, but then it was gone. She shook her head and walked through the large doors. Kurama led her in and left, closing the doors behind him. The teen prince of Reikai sat behind his desk.
"You wanted to see me, sir?" Ari asked.
"Yes," said Koenma, "Who are you?"
"Ariana."
"Wrong." Ari jumped.
"Wrong? But, that's my name."
"Don't you remember anything?"
"What do you mean?"
"From before you woke up in Okayama."
"No. Nothing."
"Not a single picture?" Ari shook her head. Koenma sighed. "I see."
"Wait," said Ari, "I remember something." Koenma looked up. "I remember a boy. He was very young. He appeared to be a baby. He had brown hair and brown eyes. He was younger than me, yet the favored one. That's all I remember." Koenma blinked.
"I know who you are," he said, "You are Princess Hakurei of Reikai."
"What?"
"I'm the little boy you remember." To prove his point, Koenma poofed to chibi form. Ari stared. "I'm your little brother. For some unknown reason, you were kicked out of the palace. If you want, you can come home now."
"You're going where?" Botan asked.
"Reikai," said Ari, for the tenth time that day. "Koenma just told me that I'm his big sister, and that he ants me to come back to the palace."
"You've gotta be kidding me!" Matthias said.
"Can we come with you?" asked Racada. Ari laughed.
"If it's okay with Koenma."
"So, you're leaving?" Kurama asked.
"I'll come and visit!" said Ari, "I promise." She smiled.
Kurama sat in Yusuke's living room. Yusuke and Kuwabara were playing video games. Hiei was looking out the window. Kurama sighed. 'I've never felt like this before,' he thought, 'What is this feeling? Could it be...? No. It can't possibly be. But it is...' Yusuke's yell broke his train of thought.
"Wahoo! I win again!" Kurama smiled and shook his head. Hiei stared intently at the kitsune.
"Please?" Ari asked.
"No!" Koenma said.
'Time to pull out the heavy artillery,' Ari thought. She stuck out her lower lip and gave the cutest look she could.
"Not the Puppy Pout!" Koenma said, "Fine! I give up! They can stay here!"
"Yes!" Ari pumped her fist into the air and ran off.
"I'm gonna regret this," Koenma said.
Short chapter, I know. But at least it was funny. And now Ari knows her past. Plus, Matthias and Racada get to wreak havoc on Reikai. This is gonna be fun.
"Botan, I'll make this simple. I love you."
"Juri, dear sweet beautiful Juri. Have I told you lately that I love you?"
"Only a hundred times today. But I never get tired of it."
'What if Hiei's right? What if Kurama really does like me? What is this feeling? I felt empty before, but now, I feel like my heart could burst. What's going on? Could it be...? No. It's not possible. But it's really happening.'
"Ari, there's something I need to tell you..."
And so the plot thickens. I hope you all enjoy the next chapter. Ja ne!
Ari: Bye!
