Here, a long chapter. I was busy yesterday, so I couldn't update. Sorry!

Oh, and I forgot the disclaimer for the last chapter.

I. No. Own. You. No. Sue.

And for this chapter:

-glares at lawyers- go away! I don't own it, so leave me alone!

Megan's P.O.V

I looked around. Someone wasn't here. Let's see... Yusuke, Keiko, Kuwabara, Shizuru, Kurama, Hiei, Yukina, Botan... Who isn't here? Oh, that's right... Genkai wasn't here. Now where...? No, wait, I don't want to know. I jinxed myself last time I did that. I was jerked out of my thoughts where someone got up in my face. I hissed and backed away.

"Get out of my face, Yusuke! Geez, first Botan, then you, are you people trying to give me a heart attack?!" I yelled. For the first time since I got here, Hiei looked faintly amused. Keiko came up and dragged Yusuke away by his ear, muttering something about flirting with other girls. I grinned.

'Serves him right.' I thought. I flicked my tail in amusement. Then I remembered why I was here. "Botan said you guys had questions...?"

"Yes... How did you get here?" Kurama asked.

"Well... I was running from home when I heard something in an alley. I went to check it out and found a kitten. I just have a soft spot for animals. I picked it up to bring it to the nearest animal shelter but dropped it when I was sucked into a vortex/portal/thingy. I fell and landed on Yusuke." I said. "And, before you ask, yes, I was human before I fell on Yusuke."

"How old are you?" Hiei asked.

"I'm 15 almost 16. Like I said to Kurama."

"How do you know us so well?" Yusuke had (somehow) escaped Keiko.

"Are you sure you want to know?"

"Yes."

"Fine, just don't blame me if you don't like or believe it. Where I come from, all of you are made up. Even still, there are fangirls who would do anything to meet you people. Let's just say that any self-respecting fangirl would know you people to a point where it is just scary. Like me." I said. 'I still don't know what I did, but I'll find out. I'll ask Koenma about it later or maybe force it out of Botan...' I added silently.

"What do you know about me?" Kuwabara asked.

"Other than the fact that you are a baka and that I have no clue how you managed to get this far into the show without dying? Not too much. Oh, and if you call Hiei 'shorty' or 'shrimp' while in my presence, I will beat the crap out of you. Do not test me." I said. I looked around. Yusuke was gone.

'Not again! Does he HAVE to make this hard?'

'Yes, he does.' I jumped and looked around. Of course. Hiei.

'Don't DO that, Hiei. I'd like to keep my thoughts to MYSELF thank you! Where did he go, anyway?'

'He left with the Masked Fighter about ten minutes ago. I don't know, go find him.'

'Some help you are...'

'Hn.' Just then, Botan grabbed my wrist.

"C'mon, I'll show you to where we're sleeping!" she said in a hyper way.

"Botan, two things. One, Tone down the annoying hyper-perkiness. There is NO way that the Grim Reaper has the right to be this perky. Two, don't EVER touch me unless you want to meet my claws. Ok?" I said. She let me go and I followed her into the room. I sat on the bed and flopped down. I was asleep within 5 minutes.

---

Warm... comfy... niceness... sleeeeeeep... I woke up to the sound of Botan's voice.

"Megan, get up! We don't want to miss the semi-finals! Come ON, get up, get UP!" she yanked the covers off of me and I curled up into a tighter ball. Then I sat up and looked in a conveniently placed mirror.

The pupils in my eyes were little slits and my fangs showed a little over my bottom lip. My hair was all screwed up and my tail was limp. I got up and stretched. The directions I bent my body around in to stretch would make a yoga trainer flinch and the sheer number of cracks that were heard was sickening. Botan stared at me. After I stretched, I got dressed and was ready just as they walked out the door. They handed me a breakfast bar as I passed. It LOOKED Ningen-made, so I figured Keiko was smart and brought them.

"Did anyone ever think to tell you that I am NOT a morning person?" I mumbled. Keiko looked at me. Then she looked at Puu and made the comment that he looked miserable. He feels whatever Yusuke feels, so why...? Oh, that's right... Genkai's final test. When we got to the arena, I was surprised to see that Botan had gotten hold of an extra ticket. From what I remember, she left theirs at the hotel in the show, so how she actually got an extra was beyond me. Oh, wait... that was before the finals, wasn't it? I also saw someone that I hadn't noticed before. Yukina.

"Hello, I don't believe we've met. I'm Yukina. Who are you?" she said quietly.

"I'm Megan. Nice to meet you." I smiled. She smiled back. We followed Botan to our seats (perfect view of the fights) and waited for the teams to come out. I handed Puu off to Keiko, much to his unhappiness, and turned to Yukina.

"Is there any particular reason why you're here? I mean, you don't really strike me as the kind of person who likes to watch fights. Especially fights that tend to get really ugly." I asked her.

"I'm here because I had this feeling my brother would be here. I've been looking for him for a long time." Yukina said.

"A brother?"

"Yes."

'You talk, you die. Say one word to her and you will feel my wrath.' Hiei's voice sounded in my head.

'Deja-vu... Hiei, I'm not Botan, I can keep a secret. Chill out.' I thought back. I looked down at him from the stands. He looked up and I could clearly see the threat written all over his face. I nearly cried. Is it my fault if I have a soft spot for him?! Kurama looked up to see what Hiei was looking at and his gaze fell on me. I blushed furiously. Dammit, WHY must I have a soft spot for him too?! Not really him, but Youko Kurama. Why must I be cursed with a soft spot for them? Why?

"Why are you blushing?" Yukina had noticed.

"Don't tell anyone, but I have a soft spot for both Hiei and Kurama. Please don't tell!" I said. Yukina smiled. I looked down to see which unlucky team had the misfortune to fight Team Urameshi next. As the opposing team walked out, every girl in the stadium; with the exception of Botan, Keiko, Shizuru, Yukina and myself; started to scream. That meant only one thing.

"No... Not him... there's only two people who could get that reaction from the crowd and they are Touya and Shishiwakamaru. Who is it? No... It's Shishi! This is Team Uraytogi." I whispered. Yukina looked at me.

"First it will be Hiei, then Hiei again, then Kurama I think, then Kurama again, then Kuwabara. I never saw the episode with Shishi vs. Kuwabara! I don't know who wins! No, wait... I remember now..." We watched as Hiei killed the first quickly and skewered the second, and it got interesting when Kurama stepped up. Uraurashima, the kid with the Iddun Box, stepped up as well. Automatically, I remembered my two favorite episodes. The only two I saw with Youko Kurama in them. I looked to Shizuru.

"Shizuru, when I start to stare into the fog with a blank love-struck look on my face, slap me, ok?" I asked. She nodded. I looked at the ring and found that I could see through the fog. That was when I saw him. Youko Kurama. He even had the Death Tree in his hand. (AN: insert fangirl squeal here) Shizuru slapped me but I still stared. All too quickly, the fight was over and Yoko Kurama went back to being normal Kurama. I was sad and horrified at the same time.

'No! NOOOO!!! That did not just happen, that did not just happen... I am not worthy of what I just saw... I am not worthy enough to have seen that... WHY does he have to go back to normal?! WHY?!' I screamed in my head. Then I had one of my random thought moments. 'If Hiei is part Koorime then does he have hiruiseki stones too? I've never, ever seen him cry, so I can't be sure.'

'Yes.' came Hiei's voice. I jumped and nearly screamed.

'(breathing heavily) Hiei, please don't do that. It scares the hell out of me when you randomly answer my thoughts. It really does.'

'Hn. You asked a question so I answered.' Came the reply.

'You tell Kurama that I like him, I tell Yukina that you're her brother. Understood?'

'Hn.'

'Hiei, I'd love to glomp you, but I value my life. Be grateful that I do.'

'Hn. Baka onna.'

'Baka yokai.' Hiei looked up at me and gave me one of his signature death- glares. I nearly fainted. 'I am so not worthy...'

I was so deep in my thoughts of Youko Kurama and Hiei that I totally missed Kuwabara, no, wait GENKAI vs. Shishi. Oh, well... I saw Youko Kurama in person! I WAS THERE TO SEE IT HAPPEN!!! I didn't see Genkai against Suzuka, either, but I remember that one. That was funny. We walked back to the hotel to relax. The whole time we walked, I stared at Kurama. I had only one thought in my head.

'I'm not worthy enough to be in his presence...' Just then, Hiei sent a mental image of him laughing at me, so I sent one back of him getting acquainted with my claws. He sent one back of him telling Kurama so I retaliated with one he couldn't ignore or strike back at. A picture of Yukina. I sent him a picture of me grinning in triumph.

'Baka.'

'You're just mad that I know every one of your weak spots. Everything from Yukina to your friendships with Kurama and Yusuke.'

'Hn.'

'Hiei, you know what I would really like right now?'

'What?'

'For you to hit Kuwabara so hard he passes out. I'd do it, but I don't think I could hit him hard enough.'

'No.'

'No what? 'No: you won't hit him', 'No: I'm not strong enough', or 'No: he won't pass out'?'

'Options one and two.'

'Baka youkai.'

'Hn. Baka neko onna.' Why do I have a soft spot for him? I looked at him and glared. He glared right back with about ten times the intensity. (AN: insert another squeal here) Then I had another random thought.

'Jin annoys me. So does Botan now that I think about it. I hate Kuwabara all together. If Jin stays away from me, I'll be happy.' As if on cue, Jin flew up to us.

"'Ey, there, Urameshi! See ya picked up a pretty lass now, 'aven't ya? You're a lucky one!" he said very quickly. My right eye started to twitch. Anyone who knows me knows what happens when my eye twitches.

"Jin, come here. I want to tell you something in your ear." I said in a too sweet, you-had-better-fear-for-your-health-and-safety kind of voice. He smiled and came closer. "Jin, YOU ANNOY ME!!!" I yelled in his ear. He yelped and backed away.

"The pretty lass is a tad violent, now ain't she?" he chuckled while rubbing his ears. Yusuke stared and I looked at Jin.

"You're lucky I'm not in the mood to cut you to ribbons. Annoy me again, though, and you may not be so lucky." I growled quietly. He squeaked and flew off, still massaging his ears. I smirked. "With any luck, his ears will be ringing for a week!" I laughed. Everyone stopped staring at me and we made it to the hotel in a matter of minutes. While Yukina was tending various wounds, I was staring out the window.

'I never thought that I'd be thinking this, but how will I go to school? People at school are allergic to cats and I can't exactly explain the ears and tail. Though that would be a great Halloween costume... My friend is allergic to cats... Damn.' I thought. I was jerked out of my thoughts when someone tapped my shoulder. I winced as I jumped and turned. I was expecting to see Yukina or Kurama or even Hiei, but NO... It was...

"AHHH!" I yelled and backed away. "Koenma, do NOT do that!" The teen Koenma was standing there. He was looking at me like a scientist looks at a new specimen. I started to get annoyed and got up to walk around.

'How many people get on my nerves here? Let me see... Botan, Koenma, Kuwabara, and Jin... Toguro annoys me too... I think that's it...' I thought. Automatically, I braced myself for a 'Hiei Comment', but thankfully, none came. Maybe he actually listened to someone for once... Wow...

'No, I just don't feel like talking to anyone.'

'Did I think that out loud? Sorry.' Botan came over to me.

"You've been really tensed up, especially in your right arm. Is something bothering you?" she seemed genuinely concerned. I decided to be polite instead of annoyed at her.

"Nah, just my shoulder acting up. I pulled something in it a while ago and I can't relax it too much or it hurts. Nothing I can't handle. I'm fine." I said. This was true, I did pull something in my shoulder and it was acting up. I didn't think anyone would notice.

'Maybe I could ask Yukina to look at it? Nah, she has her hands full with Kuwabaka over there... Ah, well... It'll pass sooner or later, like always.' I looked around. 'Where did his Royal Pain-In-The-Ass disappear to? Then again, why should I care? He annoys me. Oh, well... Hey, I bet I could freak everyone out with how much I know about them... Heh, heh... Like how Yusuke uses Super Glue in his hair gel, or Kuwabaka's freaky obsession with little kitties... Wait, kitties? Damn, I'm a cat now... Shit...' I felt a chill in my bad shoulder and I looked over. Yukina was looking at my shoulder and her hand was glowing. 'Um... Ok...Yeah... Who told her? Or did she figure it out herself? Oh, well, I'll deal with that later.'

"Thanks, Yukina." I said with a smile. She pressed something into my hand and went off. I looked at the little hard thing she gave me and gasped. A hiruiseki stone?! Why in the seven levels of hell would she give me one of these?! I stood there staring at it till Hiei brought me out of my thoughts. Quite suddenly, I might add.

'What did my sister give you?' he asked. I jumped.

'You swear you won't kill me if I tell you?'

'Hn. Yes.'

'Ok... She gave me a hiruiseki. I don't know why, though.'

'She must consider you a close friend.'

'But she only met me today!'

'Hn.' I slipped the beautiful stone into my pocket and went back to staring out the window. My mind wandered until it settled on thinking about the episodes of the show where the artifacts were stolen. I saw every one of them and the one with the Shadow Sword was my favorite. That was the only time I saw Hiei in demon form and beat the crap out of Yusuke. I sighed.

Then I remembered that I had my backpack with me. Wherever my bag is, my Bishi Shrines were with it. I got my bag and brought out the two folders. One was silvery-white and the other was pure black. They both had the words 'Bishi Shrine' written on them in big, blood-red letters. I opened the silvery one to the first paper and stared at it. It was my Youko Kurama Shrine. It had about a hundred different pictures of Youko Kurama in it. The other was my Hiei Shrine. I loved them both. What can I say? I'm a fangirl.

My ears twitched and I heard someone coming up behind me. I closed the folder and turned around just as Kurama came up behind me. I caught the scent of roses and grass from him.

"What are those?" he asked politely. I almost melted. 'To think he is the deadly Youko...'

"Just some pictures and other papers that I keep with me. Why?"

"Can I see them?" I handed him a random folder. As soon as it was in his hand I realized my mistake. I had handed him the silver folder. 'Shit. Dammit, did I HAVE to hand him the Youko Kurama folder? Did I?!'

Then I remembered what I had written on the inside of the folder flaps. The beautiful, yet deadly silver fox, Youko Kurama. Hell, yeah! Damn my fangirlism. Just before Kurama opened the folder, I came to my senses and ran. I ran straight into Kuwabara.

"Hey, girl. Wanna hang with the great Kazuma Kuwabara for a while?" he asked stupidly.

"I'd rather go on a date with Jin. If I didn't want to be able to get home, I'd let Hiei carve you into mincemeat and then I'd ask him to vaporize what ever was left. Oh, and I can blackmail you with the knowledge of your obsession with cats and the fact that Yusuke had to save Ieikichi for you. Ooh, seeing your face when you saw him run and save that cat was priceless!"

"How do you know about that?" he asked dumbly.

"Do you know that when you talk, you sound like you're trying to spread your stupidity? It's really irritating. Stop talking and leave me alone. Go find Yukina or something." I said.

"Yukina, my love! I'm coming!" he yelled. I stared as he ran off.

'O.O How stupid could ya get? It should be sinful to be that dumb! And to think he's part of this group!'

'Hn.'

'Hello, Hiei.'

'Hn, hello.'

'Is there any REASON why you seem to have set up a semi-permanent link to my mind?'

'Do I need a reason?'

'It's MY mind, so yes.'

'Hn.'

'Of course, I could always let it 'slip' to Yukina that I have a clue about her twin...'

'You spill, I kill. Simple as that, baka onna.'

'Since when did you turn to using a Ningen form of threats? It really doesn't suit you.'

'Hn.'

'THAT'S the Hiei I know and adore.'

'Hn.'

I was about to reply when Kurama walked up to me with my Shrine. Again, I smelled the scent of roses and grass. He handed it to me and was about to walk away when I stopped him.

"I guess you can tell by now that I am a fangirl and that I adore and worship the pictures in that folder, hm?"

"Yes, and some of the images that I saw in there were very old. I'm surprised that anyone had those anymore."

"So sue me, I'm a collector. I'm online for hours on end, ever searching for the perfect picture. I saw one of Hiei in a gray hoodie once, I think. I'm not sure; it might have been another outfit. I liked it, though."

"I was the one who got him into that outfit..." Kurama muttered thoughtfully.

"So there IS one like that?! Ohmygod,ohmygod,ohmygod! Oh, wait, this one too..." I dug into the silver folder and brought out a picture of Youko and normal Kurama in the same picture, Kurama wearing a green outfit that looked like a kimono-thing with pants. I stared at it until Kurama brought me back around.

"Why don't you go outside? It's nice out and every demon for miles would be long gone after today's fight." I nodded and went outside.

I looked around at the trees until one in particular caught my eye. It was a kind of short tree and looked kinda like a claw. It had dark patches that looked suspiciously like stains on it. It looked inviting and I went over to it.
