I have forced myself on the computer on my day off. I know, I haven't updated in about a month, but school's been a pain, and whenever I'm not on the computer, I'm eating, gone, or sleeping the sleep of the Dead. Yeah…it's been like that. . By the way, poem last chapter credited to KKC-chan.
But! I have finally managed to sit myself down and type this, so please forgive me for taking so long. I guess I really DON'T want Kikyoku to be finished, since I'll only have two chapters left after this. Well…and outtakes (STILL taking ideas), and maybe a Q & A (even though that didn't turn out so well last time) for the characters. And you WILL see the Mirror Holders again…that I promise you.
Anyway, last chapter, the Guardians and Mukuro paid the girls a visit, and now we're about to see how they have fared, staying in bed for so long…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"No. Absolutely NOT." Kelsey's stormy eyes blazed as she pushed against Suzuki's unyielding hand. "I'm not staying in this bed any longer! I'm fine! SHE'S fine! We're BOTH FINE!!"
"When you think about it, she's right," Kia remarked, looking earnestly up at the inventor. "I mean…my wounds are all healed, we've slept for four days…can't we get out of bed yet?"
He sighed, looking at the girl's imploring expression. "I don't want to risk--Kelsey, what are you doing??"
"Seeing if I still have use of my legs," the blonde girl said grimly, shrugging off his hand and kicking off the covers.
Suzuki scowled. "Stop! You can't--"
"Oh, can't I?" Kelsey stood squarely on both feet, her manner just as austere as the other's. "I'd like to see you try to stop me! Kia, come on."
"Ah…" The older girl looked from her to the livid Suzuki. With a small shoulder shrug, she swung her legs to the side of the bed and went to her friend, only a little unsteady on wobbly legs.
Kelsey grinned encouragingly, leading Kia to the door. "Come, let us stretch our numbed limbs!" She grasped the knob and Kia felt a flicker of unfamiliar energy.
"Kelsey, wait, don't--"
Too late. The other girl flung the door open--and felt it connect with something solid.
"OUCH!" The voice, light and male, was also unknown to both of them. "Honestly--I come to see how you two are doing, and THIS is how you thank me for my consideration? By damaging my pretty face??"
The door swung open all the way and they found themselves staring up at a tall young man with short brown hair and beautiful brown eyes. He wore a red cape over a blue tunic, a white long-sleeved shirt, and tan pants. And yes, he was easy on the eyes--but that wasn't why Kelsey and Kia were staring. No, they were gaping at the black tattoo on his forehead that boldly proclaimed "JR"…and the baby-blue pacifier that he held firmly in his mouth.
"Do…do we know you?" Kia asked, finally regaining her powers of speech.
"In a sense." The pacifier hindered his own words not a whit. "You've never seen me in either of my two forms…but you've heard my voice before."
Suzuki came up behind the girls, peering at the man. "Oh. It's you, Koenma."
"Koenma?!" Kelsey yelped, pointing almost accusingly at the stranger. "But…but you…I thought you were a BABY!!"
The ruler of Reikai sighed in frustration. "That's one of my forms, the one I usually assume. This is my teenaged form."
"The pacifier sort of takes away from the 'teenaged' look," Kia pointed out logically. Kelsey nodded in agreement.
"ENOUGH," Koenma growled. "Anyway…" He turned to Kia. "I'd like to…ah…I must…" As she stared at him, uncomprehending, he threw up his hands. "Aaaargh!! Idiotic girl, why didn't you tell anybody where you were going??"
"I told Rinku," she replied calmly.
"You told him MAKAI!!" He exploded. "You didn't specify which TIME PERIOD!!"
"Kurama figured that out awhile back." Hiei strolled over to Koenma, followed by the redheaded Youko, the latter tucking his hands into his pockets. "If you had been spying, like you usually do, you would have known where she was. What--did your assistant forget to record it? Or did you just forget to watch, being engrossed in 'important Reikai business'?"
"Things happen…" the prince answered nervously. "ANYWAY--" The glare returned, full force. "If we had known--"
"It's all right."
"…Huh?" Koenma blinked.
"It's all right," Kia repeated, smiling slightly. "I accept your apology, Koenma."
"WHAT apology?!" She was amused to see his face turn red. "I didn't come here to offer apologies, I just came here to--"
"BABY!" Rei came barreling at Koenma at top speed, throwing her arms around his neck and practically choking him. "Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!"
"Gaaaaah?!?" The ruler tipped over, and then plunged to the floor, taking the clinging priestess with him. "Rei, get OFF ME!!"
Kia and Kelsey carefully stepped over them and joined Kurama and Hiei. "Aside from Rei, it's pretty quiet," the brunette observed. "Where IS everybody?"
"Jin went out for some air, Touya's somewhere with Mizu, Chuu and Rinku are both asleep, Mukuro and the Guardians returned to Makai, and Shishiwakamaru went to get someone," Kurama explained.
Suzuki abruptly stomped past them, muttering unhappily. Something along the lines of "dratted old people". At least, that's what it sounded like.
Hiei smirked. "I see he's still sore about that."
"About what?" Both girls asked in unison.
The Jaganshi shook his head. "You'll see."
"Stop acting so smug. Beautiful Demon Battler Suzuki's sore because I humiliated him badly…of course, that was a long time ago, during the last Ankoku Bujutsukkai."
Kelsey looked around for the owner of the gravelly voice, but it was Kia who spotted the old woman first, with the straggly pink hair and intelligent brown eyes. She was followed by a respectful-looking Shishiwakamaru as she walked over to the confused Mirror Holders.
"Let me guess. Kelsey…" she nodded at the blonde. "And Kia."
"Right." Kelsey regarded her suspiciously. "But who are YOU?"
Kurama freed one of his hands to hide a smile. "Girls, this is Genkai, Reiki Master and instructor to Yusuke."
"Oh!" Kia's eyes brightened. "So YOU'RE Baasan!"
"The one Yusuke always complains about," Kelsey added, her caution now gone completely. "And you're incredibly powerful and you still call him 'bonehead'!"
"I see my reputation precedes me," the old woman said wryly. "As yours do."
Kia looked surprised at this. "We have reputations?"
"What sort of reputations?" Her friend added. "Good? Bad? I mean, Hiei has a reputation for slaying anyone who pisses him off…"
The Jaganshi smirked again. "Hn."
Genkai was watching them amusedly, folding her arms across her chest. "You have reputations," she assured the girls. "And, given that you defeated Netami, you saved Makai from a mass plague, and you saved Ningenkai from seven beasts, I'd say they're damned good ones."
"I like her," Kelsey whispered to Kia, who smiled and nodded. Genkai seemed like one of those people who wouldn't take crap from anyone. "So, Genkai-shihan, did you come to lecture Kia too?"
"Oh, is that what Koenma used as an excuse?" The reiki master glanced at the ruler and Rei, still on the floor. "And I thought he was actually going to tell the truth this time."
"I did!" Koenma exclaimed indignantly, finally peeling Rei's arms off and getting to his feet. "She SHOULD have told me where she--"
Genkai cut him off, rolling her eyes. "Maybe I should call YOU bonehead. How was she going to tell you? From what I've heard, it was a split-second decision, and I'm sure you were the last person she had in mind, considering she's only heard your voice! Now why don't you try to explain yourself again?"
"Hmmm…" For a moment, the prince struggled with himself…and then sighed, looking at Kia. "I apologize for not coming to your aid sooner," he said tightly.
Kelsey let out a laugh. "You mean that was it? He couldn't just say that??"
Koenma glared at her haughtily, and then stalked off, nose in the air. "I'll be going back to Reikai now. I'm sure I'm needed there." And he left, without looking at any of them.
"…Is he always like that?" Kia asked.
"Most of the time." Rei rose as well, still grinning. "Maybe I can catch him before he leaves again." She hurried after Koenma and everyone heard the yelp and the enraged cry of "REI!!" that followed her departure.
Genkai shook her head. "He'll learn…and to answer your previous question, Kelsey, I came by to meet the two that I've heard so much about. You're a lot smaller than your legendary selves."
"Osore said that too," the brunette responded, and then blinked. "Osore! Where is she?"
Kurama smiled sadly. "My cousin also returned to Makai. She says this was too much excitement for her and she'll need at least a century to recover." He laid a hand on Kia's shoulder, who suddenly looked forlorn. "She also said to thank you for everything and it's been an interesting experience. She was never much for sentimental good-byes."
"But…I never got to thank her," Kia said sadly. "She was such a help…"
"She knew." The Youko coughed. "And I believe I owe you an apology as well."
She looked at him, the sadness fading in her eyes, to be replaced by bafflement. "Apology? What for?"
Poor Kurama now looked incredibly uncomfortable. "Well…now that I have my memories back…Youko...he…I tried to take advantage…"
"Oh, that?" She grinned up at him. "It wasn't your fault. Shuichi wasn't there, so you can't really be blamed for that."
"But I'm Youko as well--"
"True." Kia tapped her chin with an index finger, pondering. "Don't worry about it, Kurama, I'll think of some way you can…umm…atone."
Kurama opened his mouth, ready to ask what she meant by that remark, but Genkai spoke again.
"You two just stay out of trouble and then I'll have less boneheads to worry over. Yusuke is more than enough." She suddenly smiled, extending her hand to both Mirror Holders. "I'm glad to finally meet you."
"Same here," Kelsey replied, shaking her hand. Kia followed suit. As the old woman went to go find Suzuki (no doubt to humiliate him some more), she turned to her companion. "So, you and I are going to have a talk. Tell me everything that happened."
"Didn't I tell you already?"
"No."
"Damn." The brunette, resigned, led the way to the couch. Once they had settled themselves down, she began. "When you collapsed, I had a little talk with Rinku…"
***Five Hours later…***
"So that's how Kage died?" Kelsey leaned back, shaking her head. "And I was asleep for all of this…"
"You were unconscious," Kia reminded her, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand. Just thinking about the deaths of her friends made her tear up. And she wasn't the only one.
"That's so…BEAUTIFUL!" Chuu was sobbing openly. Rinku rolled his eyes and handed the drunkard a tissue box.
Kia looked around in surprise. Unbeknownst to them, they had been surrounded by all of their friends, all listening intently. "How long have you guys been here?"
Kuwabara shrugged. "I got in when you were talking about being kidnapped."
The girl flinched. She'd been careful not to go into much detail, because she didn't want Touya to know that it had been her with him. He still thought it was Hiketsu. "Ah--"
There was a loud bark from outside. They all glanced at the direction of the front door and Kelsey raised her eyebrows.
Suzuki stood up, sighing. "I'll get it."
"What's up with dogs?" Shishiwakamaru asked, scowling. "I swear…"
"Kelsey? Kia?" The inventor sounded somewhat…strangled. "Could you come here, please?"
The girls exchanged looks, and then rose, going over to Suzuki. He was holding a large basket, and turned, showing the contents to them. Kia gasped and Kelsey stared, her eyes widening.
Inside the basket were three tiny puppies, whimpering piteously. Kia was able to determine the gender by lifting each little canine and checking. Two males and a female, all three wearing leather collars with small nametags. The female had long, glossy black fur, golden eyes and pointed ears. Her nametag announced her as Suka. One of the males was brown, with one pointed ear, one drooping ear, a white splotch on his chest, and four white paws. He was Inuki. And the final puppy...when Kelsey looked at him, her eyes filled up.
"He looks just like Kage…"
Same ears, same intelligent look, and his name was Kageri.
"Come to think of it…Inuki looks like Hikari…you think…these are their puppies? Kage never mentioned them…" Kia kept staring at the puppies, sniffling.
"I'd just like to mention that you are not keeping them," Suzuki told them firmly. They stared at him with big eyes. He was unmoved. "No."
"Please????" they said together , and the dogs all set up a chorus of cute whimpers.
"Please?" Rinku chimed in.
Suzuki wavered, as everyone (even Hiei) stared at him. "I…but…we can't…" Then Kageri set to work licking his hands and he gave in. "FINE! But you're taking care of them…any accidents will be taken care of by YOU!"
"Yay!!" Kelsey hugged Suzuki fiercely, picked up Suka, and went off to show her new puppy to everyone.
Hot tears fell on soft fur as Kia gathered Inuki into her arms. "Thanks, Kage," she whispered, as the puppy cleaned her face thoroughly with a small pink tongue. "Thanks for making sure we don't forget you…and your legacy…"
*OOC*
Oh, goodness…*sniffles* Kage had puppies…anyway, I'm done with this chapter, I'm happy that its done, so please review! NEXT chapter!
* Keiko gets a new camera…run, everyone, run! And Kia finally has Kurama "atone". *grin*
* When the girls get in trouble at school, and their "father" is summoned…guess who shows up?
* Two words: demonic hickeys. XD
But! I have finally managed to sit myself down and type this, so please forgive me for taking so long. I guess I really DON'T want Kikyoku to be finished, since I'll only have two chapters left after this.
