In the main room.........((Author's POV))
Lizzie sat down next to Lena,with Lavender in her lap.Lena looked up at her,asking if he was okay."He's okay now Lena.He's just woken up."Lena smiled and looked up in thought."Uh-oh.......Lena's actually thinking again!Duck and cover!"Lizzie threw a pillow over her head.
Lena laughed."Lizzie!"She looked at the door to Kurama's room.It had just opened.Hiei came out,looking very solemn.He left without looking at anyone or anything.Both of the blondes exchanged worried glances."Oh no!"They raced into Kurama's room,forgetting to put Lavender down,and saw that Kurama was out like a light again."Kurama?"Lena walked over to his bedside and placed a tender hand on his arm."Lizzie,do you think he'll be alright?"
Lizzie's eyes were a misty blue.They were full of tears."I don't know,Lena.I really don't know."She sat next to Lena and placed a sisterly hand on her shoulder.
Lavender looked at Kurama."What happened to Mr. Tuuichi?"She saw the slit on his face and her eyes got wide."Kuronue!Kuronue!He's back!He did it!"Lizzie and Lena both looked at her like she was crazy."Kuronue........Brother......I reamember you........."She looked at Lizzie."LiLi,I know you're not my real sister.I'm a reincar-.....reincarnation.Of Kagi......"She looked at Kurama."I know Kuronue and Kurama were friends."She yawned and fell asleep in Lizzie lap.
Lizzie looked at her twisted little sister.Lena leaned over Kurama and kissed his cheek.Both girls left to the main room,Lizzie carrying her little sister.Yukina looked at them eagerly.Both cast their eyes down.Lizzie laid LAvender on the couch and went to the widow.Her eyes were wide."Guys!It's snowing!"Everyone raced to the window and looked out.Sure enough,the first snow of the season was falling.Koenma and Hiei were both out in the snow exchanging insults and flying snowballs.Koenma came running inside,covered in snow and fearing Hiei would get violent.He had come to check on Kurama.He looked at Lizzie.
His eyes widening,he spoke."You are the one Hiei was yelling about,aren't you?"At the bewildered looks on everyone's faces he continued."Hiei was yelling at me.He said 'Lizzie's in there crying because of Kurama!You had better figure out what the hell is wrong with him!If you make my Lizzie cry anymore,I sware you'll lose your neck!'Then he pelted me with more snowballs and ran off,crying."He sighed."Hiei has never acted like that before.Nor has he ever called a girl his......."He looked at Lizzie evilly."You're Hiei's girlfriend,aren't you?!"
Lizzie blushed and looked at the ground.She knew that if she admitted to it,she would never hear the end of it.During the summers,she usually helped Botan out at Spirit World so she knew Koenma and he knew her.Koenma looked at her then noticed Lena.He immediately realized she must be Kurama's girlfriend,for she smelled softly of roses.He smiled at her then looked at Kurama's room,just as Lizzie,Yusuke,and Kuwabara had.They had all sensed a large drop in his Life Energy.Lena then looked to Koenma."How could Kurama use that whip?I thought only demon could use weapons like that."
Everyone except Lizzie stared at Lena.Lizzie looked at Koenma too."He uses a whip?"She and Lena both thought the same thing,and asked it aloud."Is Kurama a demon?!"Koenma nodded.
Kuwabara spoke."Yeah.Kurama's a reincarnation of Youko,the fox demon.REally scary in that form."He laughed nervously.Lizzie yawned,went into a closet,came out with a video camera,and went outside turning it on.Lena ran out after her.
She looked at her friend awkwardly."What the hell you doing?"
Lizzie laughed."I'm going to video the first snowfall of the season!That way Kurama and Lavender can see it."She let her eyes wander over to where she saw some black snow.She ran over to see what it was,videoing it along the way."Of course!Hiei's tear gems."She laughed and turned the camera toward Lena."Say 'Soy mucha fea!' Lena!"
Lena grinned."Eres es mucha fea!"She laughed and flashed a peace sign at the camera.Yusuke threw a snow ball at it.Lizzie laughed,wiped the lens off,set the camera in an abandoned owl whole,and ran after Yusuke,throwing snowballs at him.The 2 immersed into a deep snowball fight.Lena,Yukina,and Kuwabara made snowmen and snowangels,at least until Lizzie smacked Lena in the back with a grande sized snowball.Both laughed and Lena joined the snow war.This continued for about an hour.Lizzie then shrank back to the tree where her camera was,still rolling.She smiled into it and picked it up.
"Well,well,well.......Seems you know what to do to make the Kitsune happy."Lizzie swung her camera to look up into the tree.It was Hiei.He smiled and jumped down next to Lizzie,who was still filiming him."Could you stop that?"
She grinned."I could,but I don't want to!Say something to Kurama!"
He blushed,looked at the ground, and mumbled."Stay strong,my fox.......Stay strong......."He went around Lizzie and gave her a slight hug."I am going to check on Kurama."He went inside,followed by Lizzie,who had given her camera to Lena.Hiei didn't speak until they were in the den."Lizzie,are you alright?Why are you following me?"
"I am fine.I love Kurama and want him to be alright.That's all."She went into Kurama's room to find Genkai sobbing in to her hands."Genkai?Are you alright?"She sat next to her.
Genkai started and looked at Lizzie,her eyes red from crying."Lizzie......Kurama.......He's.......Look......"She pointed to Kurama.Lizzie placed a hand on his chest,gently.She didn't feel a heartbeat or his breathing.She gasped.Surely he was not dead.He had to be alive!But he wasn't.Botan came in and looked down at Kurama.
"He will live won't he?"The others looked at her like she was crazy."He's not dead yet.Not that I know of.......He shouldn't die until he's about 82."Lizzie looked over at Kurama.She thought of how happy Lena would be.She jumped up and ran outside.
"Lena!!Lena!Great news!"She ran down the stairs and grabbed onto her taller friend."Kurama isn't dead!He's going to live!Botan said he's not registered to die for a long time!Not until he's at least 82!"SHe smiled and thrust her fist into the air.Lena smiled and looked at the window that looked into Kurama's room."Bad news!"Lena looked down at her slightly shorter friend."He's gonna be in a coma for a while.He will most likely live,but he may not if we aren't careful."She trailed off looking over Lena's shoulder.Lena looked around and heard a weird voice.It was very mocking.
"Hello,puppet."Out of the shadows walked Kuronue."I smell Youko upon you.Have you seen him?"He was transparent and smling gently,carrying his sickle.Lena and Lizzie slowly backed away,Kuronue moving closer.Yusuke came over and looked at him.
"Who the hell are you?"He stared at Kuronue then saw the necklace he was twirling."Oh!You're the one that Koenma said was coming.Lena,show him where Kurama is,kay?"He went over to Kuwabara and watched Lena lead Kuronue inside.SHe went throught the den,knocked on the door to Kurama's room,and entered after being told so.
Hiei looked up."You are the real Kuronue,aren't you?"He nodded and smiled at Hiei,saying that he could be trusted."I will explain this all to Lizzie."He stood to leave,as Genkai already had left,but he was held back by a voice in the back of his head.'Stay,Hiei.Twice I have trusted someone who looks like him.Both times I have been attacked.'He looked back at the sleeping Kurama."I will stay."
Kuronue nodded in respect and sat next to Kurama's bed.He pulled out a bag of some kind of powder,sprinkled it over th slash on Kurama's right eye and said a strange word."Telonok."Kurama's face began to glow and,when the light faded,the slash was a barely visible scar.He than sprinkled the powder all over Kurama's body."Zeal!"Kurama's whole body began to glow.His wounds were completely healed and his breathing was normal.Lena's eyes widened as she looked at Kurama.
She walked over to him and sat on the bed next to him."Dear,dear Kurama.I hope you are alright."She smiled softly then turned to Kuronue."Thank you so much,sir.Thank you so much!"Kuronue returned the smiled.
"Do not thank me,if you cannot."His eyes twinkled knowingly.At the blank look on Lena's face,he explain."I merely rehealed his wounds and set his bones.I didn't change much else of his condition."He looked at Hiei,who nodded for him to continue."I also am merely a spirit.A ghost,if you will."He stood,placed the necklace next to Kurama,and left with out another word.Lena looked at Hiei and let a slow tear roll down her cheek.Hiei sat next to Lena and put his arms around her.Kurama stirred slightly and looked up at Lena and Hiei.
He touched Lena's arm tenderly.Lena started and looked around at him,whispering 'Kurama.....'.She smiled when she saw him,Hiei and Kurama did also."Hello,my love."He yawned then grimaced.Lena looked at him worriedly."It's alright Lena.I am fine.I promise you,I won't leave you,Lena.Nor you,Hiei."He added when he saw Hiei looking at him the same way as earlier that evening.Hiei blushed and got up to leave."Hiei......Stay here,please?"Hiei leaned against the wall and stared at the pair of them.Kurama smiled at his red cheeks."Why are you blushing?"He sat up,to the displeasure of Lena.
She put a hand on his shoulder."Kurama,lay down.You need to rest."Kurama looked at Lena and smiled."What?"He leaned toward her and kissed her lips for a split second.She blushed."Why did you do that?"
"If am to die soon,I want one of my last memories to be the feel of your lips on mine."He smiled gently.A strong energy swept into the room.Kurama looked at the window.It had just opened out of its own will.He looked to where Hiei had been and no longer was."Hiei.......Why did you leave?"He sighed then looked back at Lena."I love you,Lena.You do know that,right?"He laid back down and smiled at her,knowing something private.
Lena smiled."I know.I love you too."Kurama smiled and closed his eyes.Lena sighed and brushed a few strands of hair out of his face."You'll have to cut your hair.I liked it long."She went outside with everyone else.Genkai came up to her and looked at her,asking what his condition was."He's fine.He just fell alseep."Lena went outside and saw Lizzie and Hiei close together.......Too close......."Lizzie!"
______________________________________________
from when Lena went inside...............
Lizzie sat down at the base of a tree,turning her camera off.She was so glad that Kurama was going to live."Lena will be so happy."She yawned and looked up at the sky."Familia......What the hell is that?Is it someone who looks like us?Is it someone who acts like us?Is it someone who walks or talks like us?!.......Or is it just someone who's always there for you.......?I wish I knew!In the dictionary,it's defined as parents and their children;a group of people connected by blood or marriage and common ancestry.But that's not my family......."She sighed as Yukina came over.
Yukina sat down next to Lizzie."I heard what you said."Lizzie blushed."I think a family is someone who's there for you whenever you need them and when you don't."She smiled gently.Her eyes were sparkling.Both girls laughed.Yukina went over to Kuwabara and the pair went inside,along with Yusuke.Lizzie stayed under the tree and saw Kuronue leave.She smiled at him,he returned it then disappeared.
Lizzie felt a hand on her shoulder.A sword went to her throat and the hand went to cover her mouth.Lizzie didn't move,she knew better than to struggle.A voice whispered in her ear."Come with me and no one will get hurt."She took a slow breath and her right arm erupted in white flames.Who ever had a grip on her let go and Lizzie stood.She turned around and,seeing a ball of energy coming towards her,flung her right arm in front of her face.She flew backward into something,but she wasn't quite sure of what it was.Her leg cracked.Whoever she had been forced into laid her on the ground and stepped forward,drawing his sword.It was Hiei.Lizzie sent an energy blast around him and at the shadowy figure that had attacked her.It fled and Hiei ran back to Lizzie,lifting her into his lap.He kissed her head and laid her head on his chest.Lena ran outside.
"Lizzie!"She ran and sat next to Hiei.Lizzie's face and right arm were scathed.Her left leg was sticking out at an odd angle."Lizzie!!"She touched Lizzie's head and let a few tears roll down her cheeks."Oh Lizzie!"
Lizzie opened her eyes and looked up at her friend."I'm okay."She took a deep breath."He just knocked the wind out of me."She looked at Hiei."How's Kurama?"Hiei looked at her in awe.He was shocked that she could have been attacked but be acting like nothing had happend since she last saw Kurama.
Hiei took her hand in his."He's well.He will live.Kuronue helped him."Lena laughed and Hiei glared at her."What the hell is so funny?"
Lena laughed."Lizzie has always wondered what a family really was.She never really knew her own.She's always asked me what it's like.Now she can know.You are like her family.You care about her and put her ahead of you.That's what family is all about."She laughed again,as did Lizzie."What's funny Lizzie?"
"Because you are my sister!You are like my sister,I mean.You've always been there for me."She yawned and fell asleep.
Lena laughed as Hiei blushed."She really loves you.You do know that?"Hiei nodded and picked Lizzie up,going inside.Lena followed them and sat down on the couch next to Lavender,who was still sleeping."Lavender is a bizarre girl."She laughed.Hiei sat down in a dark corner of the room,Lizzie sleeping in his lap.He looked at Lavender and smiled.She looked nothing like Lizzie,but she was adorable."Ya know what?No one ever told you why Lavender is an almost exact opposite of Lizzie,did they?"Hiei shook his head.Lena smiled."Lavender is adopted.Lizzie was adopted once when she was 6,but her foster family re-abandoned her.So as soon as Lizzie was old enough she didn't have to stay in the orphanage,she adopted LAvender but has always called her a sister."
Hiei smiled and looked down at Lizzie.His mind was wandering to fantasies of his and Lizzie's future relationship.He leaned against the wall behind him and sighed.It had been a tramatic day.Kurama and Lizzie both attacked.He looked out the window and saw that the sun was setting.The colors were being painted onto the sky.Lizzie rolled over in Hiei lap so that she was facing his chest.Hiei blushed and placed a soft kiss on her lips,but didn't pull away.Lizzie woke and saw Hiei's face so close.'He's kissing me?!When did he do that?!'Hiei noticed her eyes were open and immediately pulled back,his cheeks turning as red as his eyes.
Lizzie stood and went over to the window."I just love winter susets.They are so beautiful."She sighed and noticed that Hiei was staring at her."Hey,do you think it would be alright if I went into Kurama's room?I want to see him,to see if he's alright......"She looked over at Lena,who nodded.
"I'll come with you.To make sure that you don't use to much energy.But first let's clean your cuts."She pointed to Lizzie's bleeding arm.Lizzie looked down at it in confusion.She hadn't noticed it was bleeding."Looks like you still haven't found the secret."Lizzie and Lena laughed then went into the kitchen to clean Lizzie's injuries.Lena went to the sink to wet a cloth and Lizzie sat on the counter next to the sink,as she always did in the kitchen."Hiei was eyeing you."
Lizzie blushed."Why I went to the window and watched the sunset.I didn't want to see him eyeing me.It felt a little odd."She held her right arm out to Lena so she could clean it.Lizzie wasn't very good at cleaning her own injuries very well.Last time she tried to,she ended up with a really bad infection."Thanks,Lena.Sorry I got attacked.I know that that didn't make your day any easier.I mean,with Kurama being attacked and all.I didn't want to make your day any harder,it just sorta happened on accident."Lizzie sighed."I really am sorry."Lena looked at her like she was crazy.
"What the hell are you saying?"She and Lizzie exchanged glances."You couldn't control that.It was an accident that you couldn't stop.At least you're not terribly injured."
Lizzie grinned."It's kinda like Longfellow's poem,'The Day is Dark and Dreary'.Some days must be dark and dreary!"She smiled."You know what would be fun?If we came up with a funky version of 12 Days of Christmas!"
Lena laughed."That was random!But yeah,that'd be cool.We can do it at the Christmas party,so everyone can be a part of it."She finished cleaning Lizzie's arm and started to clean her face,to Lizzie's displeasure."Oh,don't complain!If I don't clean your face it'll never get clean and those cuts'll get an infection."She put down the cloth."Let's go see Kurama."She smiled and the pair of them went into Kurama's room.They found Hiei sitting on the bed next to Kurama,talking very excitedly with him.Both silenced when they saw the girls.
Lizzie went over and sat in Hiei's lap,locking her arms around his neck."Oi,Love."She yawned and Hiei blushed."Oh!I did it again,didn't I?"He nodded and looked away from Kurama,putting his arms around Lizzie's back.
Lena sat on the chair next to the bed."Feeling any better,Kurama?"She brushed some of his hair behind his ear.
He laughed."Yes.Much better."He was sitting up,leaning his back on the wall.There was also a hot cup of tea in his hands.Lena looked at it uncertainly."Hiei brought it in for me.He said it's an old remedy of his,to make pain go away.And I couldn't refuse something to make pain go away."He laughed slightly.He drank the last bit of tea,set the cup on the table,and drew his knees up to his chin.Hiei reached over and touched Kurama's foot.Their gazes met and it looked as though they were sharing an intimate secret.Both blushed and immediately looked away.
Lizzie touched Hiei's cheek."Are you alright?"Hiei looked at her and nodded."Okay......"Lena laughed at them.
She looked at Kurama."You do know that your hair got burnt?"Kurama nodded."You'll have to cut it.I just wish you didn't have to."Kurama nodded.
"At least it will make Okasaan happy.She's been wanting me to cut it for a while now."He yawned and put a hand on Lena's.His eyes wandered over to Lizzie's arm and face,his eyes widening."What happened?Why are you so injured?I mean,when did that happen?!"He looked at Lena."Tell me.Please......."His green eyes were shining with tears.
Lena smiled gently."She's okay.She was attacked a few minutes ago.That's what the energy we felt was.It was one of Lizzie's attacks.It's called Zorro de Fuego Blanco.It means.........Lizzinator,what does that mean again?"
Lizzie laughed."Exactly,Fox of Fire White.Properly,Fox of White Fire.In Spanish,the adjectives go after the noun or pronoun being described."She looked at Kurama."It was nothing."You should have seen what happened to me when I was little.I fell off the jungle gym and broke my arm and busted my chin open."She laughed."Oddly enough,that was the same day Lena and I met.That was WHEN Lena and I met.I fell on top of her."
Kurama looked at her uncertainly,then looked at Hiei.Both were silent and didn't look away.They had to tell someone and if anyone,it should be Lena and Lizzie.They couldn't keep it a secret forever.Kurama looked at Hiei sternly,causing him to sigh."Alright.I will tell them."

Lena smiled."I know.I love you too."Kurama smiled and closed his eyes.Lena sighed and brushed a few strands of hair out of his face."You'll have to cut your hair.I liked it long."She went outside with everyone else.Genkai came up to her and looked at her,asking what his condition was."He's fine.He just fell alseep."Lena went outside and saw Lizzie and Hiei close together.......Too close......."Lizzie!"
______________________________________________
from when Lena went inside...............
Lizzie sat down at the base of a tree,turning her camera off.She was so glad that Kurama was going to live."Lena will be so happy."She yawned and looked up at the sky."Familia......What the hell is that?Is it someone who looks like us?Is it someone who acts like us?Is it someone who walks or talks like us?!.......Or is it just someone who's always there for you.......?I wish I knew!In the dictionary,it's defined as parents and their children;a group of people connected by blood or marriage and common ancestry.But that's not my family......."She sighed as Yukina came over.
Yukina sat down next to Lizzie."I heard what you said."Lizzie blushed."I think a family is someone who's there for you whenever you need them and when you don't."She smiled gently.Her eyes were sparkling.Both girls laughed.Yukina went over to Kuwabara and the pair went inside,along with Yusuke.Lizzie stayed under the tree and saw Kuronue leave.She smiled at him,he returned it then disappeared.
Lizzie felt a hand on her shoulder.A sword went to her throat and the hand went to cover her mouth.Lizzie didn't move,she knew better than to struggle.A voice whispered in her ear."Come with me and no one will get hurt."She took a slow breath and her right arm erupted in white flames.Who ever had a grip on her let go and Lizzie stood.She turned around and,seeing a ball of energy coming towards her,flung her right arm in front of her face.She flew backward into something,but she wasn't quite sure of what it was.Her leg cracked.Whoever she had been forced into laid her on the ground and stepped forward,drawing his sword.It was Hiei.Lizzie sent an energy blast around him and at the shadowy figure that had attacked her.It fled and Hiei ran back to Lizzie,lifting her into his lap.He kissed her head and laid her head on his chest.Lena ran outside.
"Lizzie!"She ran and sat next to Hiei.Lizzie's face and right arm were scathed.Her left leg was sticking out at an odd angle."Lizzie!!"She touched Lizzie's head and let a few tears roll down her cheeks."Oh Lizzie!"
Lizzie opened her eyes and looked up at her friend."I'm okay."She took a deep breath."He just knocked the wind out of me."She looked at Hiei."How's Kurama?"Hiei looked at her in awe.He was shocked that she could have been attacked but be acting like nothing had happend since she last saw Kurama.
Hiei took her hand in his."He's well.He will live.Kuronue helped him."Lena laughed and Hiei glared at her."What the hell is so funny?"
Lena laughed."Lizzie has always wondered what a family really was.She never really knew her own.She's always asked me what it's like.Now she can know.You are like her family.You care about her and put her ahead of you.That's what family is all about."She laughed again,as did Lizzie."What's funny Lizzie?"
"Because you are my sister!You are like my sister,I mean.You've always been there for me."She yawned and fell asleep.
Lena laughed as Hiei blushed."She really loves you.You do know that?"Hiei nodded and picked Lizzie up,going inside.Lena followed them and sat down on the couch next to Lavender,who was still sleeping."Lavender is a bizarre girl."She laughed.Hiei sat down in a dark corner of the room,Lizzie sleeping in his lap.He looked at Lavender and smiled.She looked nothing like Lizzie,but she was adorable."Ya know what?No one ever told you why Lavender is an almost exact opposite of Lizzie,did they?"Hiei shook his head.Lena smiled."Lavender is adopted.Lizzie was adopted once when she was 6,but her foster family re-abandoned her.So as soon as Lizzie was old enough she didn't have to stay in the orphanage,she adopted LAvender but has always called her a sister."
Hiei smiled and looked down at Lizzie.His mind was wandering to fantasies of his and Lizzie's future relationship.He leaned against the wall behind him and sighed.It had been a tramatic day.Kurama and Lizzie both attacked.He looked out the window and saw that the sun was setting.The colors were being painted onto the sky.Lizzie rolled over in Hiei lap so that she was facing his chest.Hiei blushed and placed a soft kiss on her lips,but didn't pull away.Lizzie woke and saw Hiei's face so close.'He's kissing me?!When did he do that?!'Hiei noticed her eyes were open and immediately pulled back,his cheeks turning as red as his eyes.
Lizzie stood and went over to the window."I just love winter susets.They are so beautiful."She sighed and noticed that Hiei was staring at her."Hey,do you think it would be alright if I went into Kurama's room?I want to see him,to see if he's alright......"She looked over at Lena,who nodded.
"I'll come with you.To make sure that you don't use to much energy.But first let's clean your cuts."She pointed to Lizzie's bleeding arm.Lizzie looked down at it in confusion.She hadn't noticed it was bleeding."Looks like you still haven't found the secret."Lizzie and Lena laughed then went into the kitchen to clean Lizzie's injuries.Lena went to the sink to wet a cloth and Lizzie sat on the counter next to the sink,as she always did in the kitchen."Hiei was eyeing you."
Lizzie blushed."Why I went to the window and watched the sunset.I didn't want to see him eyeing me.It felt a little odd."She held her right arm out to Lena so she could clean it.Lizzie wasn't very good at cleaning her own injuries very well.Last time she tried to,she ended up with a really bad infection."Thanks,Lena.Sorry I got attacked.I know that that didn't make your day any easier.I mean,with Kurama being attacked and all.I didn't want to make your day any harder,it just sorta happened on accident."Lizzie sighed."I really am sorry."Lena looked at her like she was crazy.
"What the hell are you saying?"She and Lizzie exchanged glances."You couldn't control that.It was an accident that you couldn't stop.At least you're not terribly injured."
Lizzie grinned."It's kinda like Longfellow's poem,'The Day is Dark and Dreary'.Some days must be dark and dreary!"She smiled."You know what would be fun?If we came up with a funky version of 12 Days of Christmas!"
Lena laughed."That was random!But yeah,that'd be cool.We can do it at the Christmas party,so everyone can be a part of it."She finished cleaning Lizzie's arm and started to clean her face,to Lizzie's displeasure."Oh,don't complain!If I don't clean your face it'll never get clean and those cuts'll get an infection."She put down the cloth."Let's go see Kurama."She smiled and the pair of them went into Kurama's room.They found Hiei sitting on the bed next to Kurama,talking very excitedly with him.Both silenced when they saw the girls.
Lizzie went over and sat in Hiei's lap,locking her arms around his neck."Oi,Love."She yawned and Hiei blushed."Oh!I did it again,didn't I?"He nodded and looked away from Kurama,putting his arms around Lizzie's back.
Lena sat on the chair next to the bed."Feeling any better,Kurama?"She brushed some of his hair behind his ear.
He laughed."Yes.Much better."He was sitting up,leaning his back on the wall.There was also a hot cup of tea in his hands.Lena looked at it uncertainly."Hiei brought it in for me.He said it's an old remedy of his,to make pain go away.And I couldn't refuse something to make pain go away."He laughed slightly.He drank the last bit of tea,set the cup on the table,and drew his knees up to his chin.Hiei reached over and touched Kurama's foot.Their gazes met and it looked as though they were sharing an intimate secret.Both blushed and immediately looked away.
Lizzie touched Hiei's cheek."Are you alright?"Hiei looked at her and nodded."Okay......"Lena laughed at them.
She looked at Kurama."You do know that your hair got burnt?"Kurama nodded."You'll have to cut it.I just wish you didn't have to."Kurama nodded.
"At least it will make Okasaan happy.She's been wanting me to cut it for a while now."He yawned and put a hand on Lena's.His eyes wandered over to Lizzie's arm and face,his eyes widening."What happened?Why are you so injured?I mean,when did that happen?!"He looked at Lena."Tell me.Please......."His green eyes were shining with tears.
Lena smiled gently."She's okay.She was attacked a few minutes ago.That's what the energy we felt was.It was one of Lizzie's attacks.It's called Zorro de Fuego Blanco.It means.........Lizzinator,what does that mean again?"
Lizzie laughed."Exactly,Fox of Fire White.Properly,Fox of White Fire.In Spanish,the adjectives go after the noun or pronoun being described."She looked at Kurama."It was nothing."You should have seen what happened to me when I was little.I fell off the jungle gym and broke my arm and busted my chin open."She laughed."Oddly enough,that was the same day Lena and I met.That was WHEN Lena and I met.I fell on top of her."
Kurama looked at her uncertainly,then looked at Hiei.Both were silent and didn't look away.They had to tell someone and if anyone,it should be Lena and Lizzie.They couldn't keep it a secret forever.Kurama looked at Hiei sternly,causing him to sigh."Alright.I will tell them."
