Chapter 2

"Yuki Yume"

ZzZz--zZzZ

"Yuesuke, you lazy bum, WAKE up!" Kayko yelled. She and Botan were slapping the black haired boy, trying to arouse him from his sleep. He opened his eyes halfway only to see that he wasn't the only one in his room. Botan and Kayko were there along with Kuwabara, Hiei and Kurama. He opened his eyes fully and sat up.
"Where is she?" he asked confused
"Where's who?" Kayko was the only one to reply.
"The girl!" It was obvious that no one knew what he was talking about. He sighed and explained. "The girl. She had on a purple cape, had silver hair, was about my height. Ya know! Her! She's really fast and knows Hiei!" Hiei opened one of his closed eyes.
"You must have been dreaming." Botan said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"I'm not so sure." everyone turned to look at Kuwabara, "She was in my dream, too. If it was a dream. She knew my name and could read my mind. Then she got me all PO'd and I tried to hit her, but she was really fast. And weird, too. She had ears on top of her head. Like..." He stopped, trying to think of a way to put what he had seen, "Fox ears. White fox ears." When Kuwabara had finished saying his last couple of sentences, a look of surprise came over Kurama's face, though no one noticed.
'But...it couldn't be.' the red-head thought, 'a kitsune communicating with a human...' A few minutes of dead silence passed slowly before anyone spoke.
"Sooooo... Why the heck did you come and wake me up!" Yuesuke asked angrily.
"Oh yeah!" Botan exclaimed, "Koenma wants you. He said it was really important. Something about the Dark Tournament and that he needed you guys right away." Yuesuke moaned and got out of bed.

-later that day-

The four boys, Kayko and Botan all walked into Koenma's office.
"Well it's about time you guys got here!" Koenma looked very annoyed indeed.
"Yeah, yeah we know. Now what do you want?" Yuesuke wasn't very happy about having to wake up before noon on his summer break.
"Well," Koenma began, "As you know, you are all going to be fighting in the Dark Tournament. Well, everyone but Kayko and Botan. But anyway, to enter the Dark Tournament you have to have a team of five members."
"Yeah, we know!" Yuesuke exclaimed.
"Out of curiosity, who is this fifth person going to be?" Kurama asked.
"Yeah!" Kuwabara added, "I'd like to know who I'm fighting with!"
"That is why I brought you all here." Koenma went on, "I have found a fifth person. This person is..." he was cut off when the door opened. A girl walked in, ignoring them. She had long silver hair and white fox ears on top of her head. She began exploring the room, as if she were looking for something.
"Excuse me, but may I help you?" Koenma asked her. She looked at him and put her finger to her lips.
"Shush!" she said and continued looking. The group watched her with a mix of curiosity and confusion. At least, everyone but Kurama, who was watching her with a strange expression on his face, as if he had met the girl before, but couldn't remember her. Yuesuke noticed this.
"Kurama." he whispered to the redhead, "Do you know that girl?"
"I'm not sure." he whispered back, "I might. But If I do, I can't completely remember."
"What are you doing!" Koenma then yelled at the girl, who kept on searching for what she was looking for.
"I'm looking for my Discman," she said, "My Yellowcard CD is in it and right now I feel like listening to Yellowcard... Found it!" She now held in her hands a red Discman with red headphones. "I'll leave now!" she said happily and walked to the door. She was about to open it when Koenma stopped her.
"Stay here. I want you to meet the people you will be fighting with in the Dark Tournament."
"WHAT!" Kuwabara exclaimed, "You mean she's the fifth per… HEY! You're the girl from my dream!" He pointed at her. And in fact, she was. She had on a pair of faded blue jeans, a white spaghetti strap shirt and white beach sandals. Her silver hair was in two layers, the top layer in a ponytail.
"It's nice to meet you in person, Kazuma Kuwabara."
"This," Koenma said, "is the fifth person of your team. Yuki Yume. She's a kitsune."
'Yuki?' Kurama thought, 'It can' be...' a memory suddenly came back to him.

Kurama, or rather, Youko stood in front of a portal in the Maikai. Yuki stood next to him, her arms around one of his. But this wasn't the same Yuki that was in Koenma's office. She looked different. Not younger, but a bit less adult-like. She was crying.
"Don't go." She said, "Please don't go!" She collapsed into his arms, crying into his chest. "Please..." she whispered.
"I'm sorry, Yuki. I have to," he said softly, putting his arms around the crying girl, "I don't want to leave. Really, I don't. But I have to. I'm only doing this to protect you..." he let go of her. "I'm sorry." He stepped into the portal he heard her voice,
"Youko. Please come back! Youko!"

'Yuki...'
"Yuki," Koenma said, "This is Yuesuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Kurama. They will be your teammates in the Dark Tournament."
"Oh, I know perfectly well who they are." She said cheerfully, with a smile on her face.
"Well," Koenma said, "That's all I wanted you for! You can leave!" Yuki laughed a bit. She took one last look at Kurama, who seemed to be wrapped in his own thoughts.
' Youko.' She thought, 'Youko Kurama. I finally found you...' and with that thought, she left.
