Chapter 5: Who are you? (Anata wa Dare desu ka?)

(Author's note :just a little breather from the main story… this story actually marks the beginning of my original manga= Oni no Sekaino Senzou (formerly Oni wars)…most of my stories normally have relations to each other…so if you don't understand some parts of it… you should read the background story first )

It was a weekend…. normally he would be visiting how Master Genkai and the others were doing…but he had to go to that place…. That place where he was before…the old hidden mansion…

He stared at that same room again…the rose he had placed there weeks before had already wilted and blown away by the wind…once in a awhile he would be looking at his back… he had this odd feeling somebody is watching him again remembering the time Hiei had talked to him here...he was sure it wasn't Hiei this time though… Hiei had been in Makai and hasn't come back…

"I don't understand why we had to ask Reikai for permission…" Angeli Minelli was holding a clipboard walking behind Ao wearing her usual attire "…we could always use …our own 'doorway'…"

"I don't like complications" Ao said opening the door to her office when she reached it. They entered and Ao sat down her chair but she face the window overlooking St. Therese Academy's grounds…

"Besides…" she began again as Angeli took her sit "…I don't too much people to get involve in this…" she watches at her window view…the students who were training … 'They're still young…" she smile and faced Angeli "I don't think they're ready for this…besides…. This is a matter for the main house…Nai should not be involve" It was eminent that Ao was firmed in her descision…Angeli looked at her grimly…."does she always have to take care of everything herself" she thought…Ao appeared t be staring th the grounds but her face as Angeli noticed seem blank and almost sad… she sighed once again…bowed and left the office silently.

"Dare desu ka?…" Ao said softly a little later after Angeli left…

"Saa min-na!" The professor clapped her hands to get the attention of the class. It was one of those days that Kurama hadn't been paying much to anything lately. Makai had been occupying his thoughts much too often…his past seems to be catching up to him rather quickly….

"ahem" he was suddenly been brought back to reality… "Minamino-san" the teacher began "I know very well you're a good student and everything …" she said her face looks firm. Kurama looked at her with slight embarrassment…it was not often that his classmates gets to see him getting scolded because of not paying attention… "...but it is no excuse for you to not pay attention understand?" she finished…he nodded and said sorry. The teacher sighed and left his side… he looked sideways…Kaitou was looking at him…he shook his head to say to him that it was nothing…Kaitou nodded in reply. He sighed…Biology was his best subject and yet here in his lab class he got scolded…he was already taking down notes for his observation when he noticed something from the corner of his eyes…. Just about outside his window Ao was walking towards the school gates… "where is she going" he thought….then she stopped just before the gate and look at him with piercing eyes that looks almost sad…"no" he thought…. she couldn't be looking at him… just then a large eagle swooped down and hid her from his view …when the bird passed she was gone… Kurama was about to stand up when the professor suddenly excused herself. It was perfect timing… Kurama had thought…. He suddenly ran out of the room...but she was nowhere in sight…he had a bad feeling…but he couldn't sense any trace of her…

"Shu-chan Telephone for you!" Shiori Minamino had called for her son. Kurama took the phone, smiled and said thanks… it was Kaitou…he had asked why he didn't come back to class after he had ran off so suddenly. He just told him he wasn't feeling well though…he isn't about to tell him he was running after a girl…Kaitou didn't buy his excuse though… but he didn't ask anymore… 'The odd thing is…" Kaitou said "The teacher didn't come back either…"… Kurama just nodded…he wasn't about to worry about his teacher's affairs…he had a lot in his mind right now…after awhile he put down the phone and went back to his room. He lied down his bed and absentmindedly stared at the ceiling. In a few days… he will leave this place for a short period to bring Youmi his 'army'. He closed his eyes…dreading the dream he might have again…dreams of his past that he dreads so much…he doesn't know himself anymore…
