Mistaken
"Hn. She doesn't look that dangerous to me," said the short spiky haired one with a cold gaze.
"She may not appear dangerous, but looks can be decieving," said another tall, red-haired boy with long hair. I observed my 'captors' carefully. Even though no one moved, I had already set my trap. Now all I needed was for them to come at me. Lucky for me, the stupid one came through.
"Come on guys, let's get her!"
"Hn."
"Yeah!"
The long haired one said nothing but attacked swiftly with a rose whip. I pretended to be hurt and staggered back a few steps. The suspense was killing me.
"Wow, she wasn't very tough," said the black haired one.
"Hn."
"Oh. Please don't hurt me anymore," I whimpered pathetically. Finally they all took one step forward. "Rose chain!" I yelled, they didn't seem to know what hit them. Next thing they knew, my rose chain had bound them by the throat, wrists, and ankles. They were all too shocked to say anything. Just imagine hanging three feet in the air with thorns like razors at your throat and wrist. Not to be selfish. I looked up and smiled angelically. "I'm afraid the Captive is the 'captor.'" I said walking over to one of the stumps. The cocky punk in green was the first to respond and, trust me, he wasn't happy.
"Hey! You bh! Let us the f%$# down!" I just sat there on the stump, playing my little flute. Normally, I would have tightened the chains. I have been called worse, so I just ignored his outbursts. I looked up to see him and the others either looking or glaring at me. I studied their energies for a moment, then stood to face them. "Well I'm guessing you don't like me, heh?" Silence. "And you know my name. Well either they sent you or someone else did."
"What? Who do you mean by 'they'?" asked the long haired one.
"Oh, so you finally take an interest, huh?" They all looked at each other, and then nodded except for the short one.
"Hn." All he said. I picked up my flute from the stump and played a small tune. The chains dissappeared in a flurry of flower petals, sending the captives unceremoniously to the ground. The two demons landed on their feet and the ningen boys fell on their asses.
"You have to promise not to gang up on me now." I said worriedly.
"Yes, you have our word." said the long haired one.
"Any of you from.......FEAR?"
"What?"
"Huh?"
"What's FEAR?"
I made a mental contact with each of them none have even heard of FEAR, which gave me great relief.
"What is FEAR?"
"FEAR is a demon based terror organization whose main goal is to wreak havoc and hell bent on destroying Ningenka."
"What!" They exclaimed.
"Yes. That's not all, they're after. They are looking for something else also." I said placing my hand over my throat. When they looked at my hand curiously, I gently drew my pendent from beneath the black turtle neck I was wearing. The pendant was shaped like a tear drop and was dark reddish color. "I'm not sure what is so special about my pendant, but they are determined to get it and 'me.'" I said with emphasis.
"Hmm......perhaps Koenma knows something about FEAR organization," said the red-haired one.
"Wait a minute," I chime in.
"What's up?" says the black haired one
"Who in the world are you guys? I mean, seeing how you all know my 'name' pretty well."
"Hn. Hiei" said the short one.
"Kurama," said the long haired one.
"Yo, Yusuke here," said the one in green.
"Uh, what was the question again?" said the tall one.
"KUWABARA?! You d&%$! Tell her your name!"
"Kuwabara. Nice ta' meet ya."
I giggled at their antics. These two were really humorous. I picked up my small flute and my backpack and followed after them. As we walked, Yusuke and Kuwabara would get in yelling matches and Hiei would roll his eyes at them. When I turned and faced him, he turned and blushed slightly, which caused me to smile. He looked kinda short, but then smiled back. Ahead of us, Yusuke nudged Kuwabara, and they both grinned and chuckled at us until Hiei threatened to knock them senseless for being stupid. I had to laugh. After being on the run so long, it felt good to laugh and smile. But I stopped myself. I knew they weren't from FEAR, but I remembered didn't know enough about them to really trust them. Then I also realized they were sent by Koenma. At this point of time, Kurama must have noticed that I was troubled because he placed his hand on my shoulder.
"Something the matter?"
Not wanting to share my thoughts, and because the other 3 were gazing at me, I simply shook my head and gave a small grin. The others seemed appeased with my response, so I returned to my thoughts. ( means thought)
Let's see...I'm in the company of 4 spirit detectives....and I'm on the run from the most dangerous organization in the Makai....and I'm in a world of shit. And my incentive to get up today was what exactly?
They led the way to the portal and Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Hiei headed through with not so much as a glance backward. I backed away. I know the instant I passed through the portal, my life would be changed. For better or for worse, I wasn't sure. I took another step back. Kurama who had been standing by the portal walked over to me.
"I get the feeling you are nervous about going through." He said, his green eyes looking me over as if to confirm his accusation. I gave a huge sigh and nodded stiffly.
"I don't know about you or the others to give you my full trust," I said stepping back again...
"So, you don't feel safe around us?" he asked. I could tell it hurt him a little to hear it.
"It's nothing personal against you or your friends. I've had some bad experiences when I trusted people. Now I'm being chased." I turned away. "I don't want anyone to get near me," I said "And I don't want them in danger because of me." I began to walk away when Kurama placed his hand on my shoulder.
"You don't have to worry, Kage. The others and I won't let you down. I'm sure we'll be all good friends and allies."
I looked at him and at his face. I'd been tricked once. It wasn't going to happen two times. "Once bitten, twice shy'. That's my problem," I said quietly. Kurama nodded and gave me an encouraging smile.
"Don't worry Ka-"
"Please don't call me that. I'm afraid of using it too often."
"Then what shall I- I mean, we all call you?" he asked in response.
"Well, I've been going by Mitsuikai."
"Angel. Then that's what we'll call you around others." Then he smiled and took me by the hand toward the portal. We were just about to go through when something came out of the portal. We backed away quickly. Kurama reached up and pulled out a rose from his hair. I did the same. Were about to attack when it came ut of the portal and said "What the Hell is going on- "
"GOD DAMN YOU, YUSUKE!" I shouted, "YOU ALMOST GOT CUT INTO RIBBONS!!" He looked at us and saw our whips out.
"Jees! Sorry! I'll call next time. But hurry up will, will ya? Koenma's gettin' cranky." With that he disappeared back in the portal. As we put away our rose whips, I heard Kurama mutter.
"That dumbass. Nearly got killed. Baka Yusuke."
I giggled at his words. He looked and blushed, then took my hand again.
"Come on. We can't keep them waiting any longer." He said as we headed for the portal. I slid my hand in his and I kissed his cheek. He blushed even deeper.
"Wh-what was that for?" he asked.
"For being here," I teased as I jumped in the portal.
