The next morning everyone set out for Genkai's at about nine in the morning. Cassie was walking up front leading the way, Yusuke was behind her ,whining about how he was missing free game day at the arcade ,Kuwabara and Yukina were walking together .The baka was babbling on with his incessant I' love you my sweet Yukina" shtick. Hiei was walking behind Shiziriu .Currently Shiziriu was on her fifth smoke and was watching her brother's hands like a hawk. Hiei was just behind her with his hand on the hilt on his katana but was being prevented from drawing it by Nick. Nick and Kuroune were walking side by side chatting. And finally Kurama was in the far back politely chatting with Keiko and Botan and some what wishing he could be up in front with Cassie.
When the group stopped for lunch about halfway there, unknown to anyone ,Nick slipped away from everyone else. She had heard a strange noise and went to investigate. Nobody noticed she was gone ,not even Kuroune. Cassie was on her last strand of nerve as she told Yusuke "FOR THE LAST GODDAMN TIME YOU BAKA.WILL YOU SHUT UP ABOUT THE STUPID ARCADE OR DO YOU WANT TO SHOW UP AT GENKAI'S IN A BOX IN A HUNDRED PIECES?????!!!!!!!!!!!" He paled visibly at this and no one heard from him for the rest of the walk. Hiei smirked and said "it seems like someone finally shut the detective's mouth." Shiziriu finally got sick of her brother and knocked him out and slung him over her shoulder. Hiei was semi-relieved that the baka was away from his sister and sighed slowly. Kurama was also getting slightly annoyed with the ferry girl's bubbling chatter. He looked up at Cassie with a sigh and a speck of amber flashed through his eyes as he watched her walk. Meanwhile ,they were all finally coming up on the last turn to Genkai's . A laugh was heard from the bat demon as he turned around and said "Well Nick it looks like we finally made it-" He was utterly confused as he stared around for the girl who he was hopelessly in love with but he was too nervous to admit it. "Cassie!" Kuroune called. The kitsune girl's head shot up . "What's up ?" she asked as she walked over to her friend. " I can't find her anywhere and there's a light demon around here somewhere" .Cassie went pale and said "Don't tell Kurama where I went. I'll be right back." Cassie flitted off into the woods and wondered "Where could she be?"
Nick who heard Cassie yelling at Yusuke smirked to herself ."It figures .She always gives her position away occasionally." she murmured. She hugged the basket she was carrying closer to her chest and continued through the woods. Suddenly Cassie flitted out in front of her. "Cassie!" Nick yelled "what the hell are you doing here ?" "I thought you were leading the group!" Cassie didn't look too happy with her best friend. "More like what the hell are you doing? There 's an evil light demon on the loose in the woods here .You're lucky I found you!" Cassie yelled at her best friend. Nick looked downcast but said "I'm sorry I ran off but this basket was more important ." Cassie just sighed in exasperation and said "We'd better get back. A certain bat demon is very worried about you." Nick nearly fell over in surprise "You mean Kuroune?" she questioned. "Yep he was the one who sent me after you and if I don't get back I'll have Kurama worried over me too !" The two girls looked at each other and laughed. Then ,taking one side of the basket each ,they began the long trek back to Genkai's.
About twenty minutes later they came back into the temple amidst shouting. 'YOU ACTUALLY DIDN'T SEE SHE WAS GONE? " Then another.. "YOU SENT HER AFTER HER?I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU !YOU KNOW ABOVE ALL ELSE THAT THE WOODS ARE DANGEROUS THIS TIME OF NIGHT!"
Obviously it was Kurama and Kuroune yelling at each other. Nick and Cassie stumbled into the sitting room under the weight of the basket. They were greeted by a flurry of hugs from the boys and dozens of questions from the girls .Nick laughed and said "whoa one thing at a time ok?" Genkai smiled {a/n wow…] and said "well what have you brought for us today?" Nick smiled and said "well there's one person who has a relititive here in the room.." Just then a small giggle was heard from behind Nick's leg and Cassie said "You can come out now little Sakura." A little demon girl stepped out from behind Nick's leg and tackled Kuroune around the neck " Unkie Kuroune!" she exclaimed. The girl looked to be no more than four years old ."Sakura! "he exclaimed in surprise patting her head. He put her down and said "Uh guys this is my four year old niece Sakura." When everyone got a look at her it was kinda weird. She was an exact double of her uncle .Right down to the pendant. It was quite eerie really [a/n oh sooo kawaii] Nick bent down and lifted the two other squirming bundles out of the basket and set them on the floor so they could play around with Sakura. "I heard these two yipping in the woods and went to go get them." There was something familiar about these two kitsune kits but no one could place it exactly. Then Yukina stepped up and picked them up "Oh they look sooo cute Cassie ! They look just like that nice lady spirit of yours Kiona ,was it? And Yoko." Everyone else face vaulted onto the floor. Hiei laughed and said "why didn't we see it before? These two must belong to Kurama and Cassie." Cassie went over and picked up the two kits who instantly fell asleep in her arms. "how 'bout we name the girl Andromeda and the boy Perseus ?" she questioned Kurama nodded and took hold of Perseus as the two new parents went to tuck the kits into bed as Kuroune followed suit with little Sakura. Just then another kit popped up and said "opps sorry for scaring you mom !"she exclaimed to Genkai and bowing slightly. "That's alright now show them where to put them won't you?" She nodded and took off down the hall…
Me: well what ya think? I hope I did better than the last one! Well it's 4:05 a.m here so I need to get to bed.
Kurama : Aren't you forgetting something?
Me :oh yes! The next chapter is called Fun and games. Til later Ja Ne and please R&R!
