(Chapter 2: A tale and a chase)
Jenni sighed. 'I had hoped she wouldn't ask. Oh, well. I guess that I'll just half to tell the half-truth. Leave out the secret, and tell her the rest of the story. Great plan, Kit!'
Jenni looked at her teacher and smiled slightly.
"Well, as you know, I left 2 years ago to look for my parents. I did not find them, but I found the place that they had lived. It was burned to the ground, and I managed to find this among the ruins, along with the earrings." Jenni pointed to her ears. "Anyway, I salvaged what I could, kept that with me, right now it's upstairs in my room, and I was about to leave when I saw Neko. She was looking at me oddly, probably because I was in my human form, and she tried to attack me. I put up a Spirit Shield (Don't own this!) and blocked her attacks. I managed to knock her out and noticed that she had a wound on her side. I brought her back to camp and healed her wound. After that, we became great friends, and we traveled together. We picked up Kori, Kuro, Ryu, and Raiu along the way." Jenni stopped for a moment, looking thoughtful. "We also had many battles, and became wanted demons for our power and the fact that we accidentally ::coughonpurposecough:: killed a few Yakuza leaders and such," Jenni said with a grin and a wave of her hand. Genkai smirked.
"Koenma must have been pleased," Genkai said, looking at her gakusei. (Means student in Japanese, and Sensei means teacher.) Jenni snickered and nodded.
"He asked if we wanted to become members of the Reikai Tantei, but we declined. Working for someone just isn't our style, if you catch my drift," Jenni said with a smile and a wink. Genkai nodded.
"Very well. Hiei, I suppose you heard all that?" Genkai said, looking into one of the darker corners.
'What the--?' Jenni thought, whirling around. 'Shit.' "Hey, Hiei. What are you doing here?" Jenni asked, covering up the fact that she was scared out of her mind that Hiei had hear everything.
"Hn. I didn't hear everything. Only the part after On'na and the cat became friends," Hiei said, leaning against the wall. Jenni gave a small sigh. She got up and motioned to Kori and Ryu, who followed her upstairs.
"She's not the same, Hiei," Genkai said, looking after Jenni. "She's different, somehow."
"Well, it seemed that she was having nightmares last night. She was thrashing in her bed and groaning about something," Hiei said gruffly. Genkai nodded and continued to sip her tea.
"Hiei, I want you to go check on Jenni and Neko in a little while. Give Jenni time to settle down, and Neko time to settle in. Then go check on them," Genkai said. Hiei nodded and disappeared.
Up in her room, Jenni was thinking things over. 'I didn't tell Genkai, but I think that she knows I'm hiding something from her. I just hope she doesn't make me tell her. ::Sigh:: I need to sing something.'
Jenni turned on her CD player and inserted a disk that a friend had burned for her. She turned in to "I hate Everything About You," by "Three Days Grace."
She turned it up a little louder than necessary and started singing to it.
"Every time we lay awake, After every hit we take, Every feeling that I get, But I haven't missed you yet.
"Every roommate kept awake, By every sigh and scream we make, All the feelings that I get, But I still don't miss you yet. Only when I stop to think about it....
"I hate everything about you. Why do I love you? I hate everything about you. Why do I love you?
"Every time we lay awake, After every hit we take, Every feeling that I get, But I haven't missed you yet. Only when I stop to think about it.
"I hate everything about you. Why do I love you? I hate everything about you. Why do I love you?
"Only when I stop to think about you, I know. Only when you stop to think about me, do you know?
"I hate everything about you. Why do I love you? You hate everything about me. Why do you love me? I hate... You hate.... I hate... You love me.... I hate everything about you. Why do I love you?" Jenni finished, sitting down on her bed with a sigh.
Outside, Hiei had heard Jenni singing and had felt someone's Spirit Energy go up by a big increase. He looked in Jenni's window and saw that she was glowing a soft white with black and blue rivers in the energy.
Jenni happened to look out the window at that moment, and glared at Hiei, brining her finger up in the trademark Spirit Gun. Hiei flitted out of the way and Jenni lowered her finger, still glaring at the spot that he had been sitting.
Kurama, who was across the hall from Neko, went over to Jenni's door and knocked. Jenni yelled, "Come in!" and Kurama entered.
Kurama eyes widened a bit at Jenni's choice of decoration. He then sighed, looking at her still form sitting on the bed, her finger still pointed like she could have used her Spirit Gun at any moment.
"Are you okay, Jenni?" Kurama asked, sitting next to Jenni after closing the door. Jenni nodded without looking over. "Are you sure?" Kurama asked.
"I said I'm fine," Jenni said, clenching her fists. She accidentally put too much pressure on her hands and blood started to fall from her palms. Kurama noticed and held her hands gently.
"We need to get you cleaned up," Kurama said, leading Jenni into the bathroom that was located next to Jenni's room. (It's one of the ones that's attached to the room.) He put her hands under the faucet and poured water onto her hands. He then bandaged her palms and Jenni thanked him quietly.
"Did you want something, Kurama?" Jenni asked, looking up at him.
"I still want to know how you go that pendant," Kurama said, motioning to the necklace that Jenni was wearing.
"Well, I found the remains of my parent's house and I found some stuff in the wreck, this among them. Ask Genkai for more details," Jenni said, turning and walking to the bed. She plopped down on the bed and looked out the window again. Kurama sat next to her and said softly, "What are you hiding?"
"If I'm hiding it, do you think I would tell you, Kitsune?" Jenni asked with a wry smile. "No, you won't find out that way. In fact, it would be better if no one found out about it, but I suppose that you will eventually. But if you do find out, you will find Neko and I gone. So just leave it to us to tell us to tell you if we want to, alright?" Jenni said sternly.
Kurama nodded and turned to walk out the door. "Oh, Jenni," he said, turning to face her. "Nice decorations." He walked out the door, Jenni grinning behind him.
A little later, Jenni and Neko went outside into the forest, careful to keep a close eye on where they were going. Jenni and Sandra found a small clearing, then started sparing, until they heard something talking softly. Jenni lit a Spirit Gun on the end of her index finger, looking around them. Something attacked them from the side and Jenni fired her Spirit Gun at it. It shrieked and fell back. Jenni and Sandra went back to sparing, ignoring all the other demons. Jenni had to kill one of the stupider ones, as it had attacked them.
Yusuke was also outside. He saw Sandra and Jenni coming back to the temple from the forest. He walked over to meet them and looked at Jenni, who glared at him.
Yusuke backed off a little bit. 'Jenni can be pretty scary,' Yusuke decided in his head.
"Hey, Jenni! What did Genkai teach you?" Yusuke asked, catching up with Jenni, as he had fallen behind.
Jenni turned. "Let's see... Spirit Gun.... Spirit Wave..... Rose Dagger... Vine Whip.... Angel Flare... and a couple others. Basically, more than you," Jenni said, turning to Yusuke with a small smirk.
Yusuke growled and lunged at Jenni, who neatly caught his punch and punched him in the gut, leaving him on the ground for a moment.
Then Yusuke was pulled to his feet and looked at Jenni. She was smiling, a few fly-away strands of hair blowing in her face in a small breeze.
"And I could teach you a thing or two. Lesson 1: Never fight an opponent when you are angry. It blinds your judgement and makes you weaker. Not only that, but it also makes you look like a fool. Lesson 2: Never attack anyone without a small form of a plan in your head. Plans always help you through battles. Trust me. I've got the scars to prove that I have been through many fights. Lesson 3: Size up your opponent and do not throw all your energy into one punch. Always test your opponent first, see if there are any weak spots, and focus on getting to the weak spots," Jenni said, walking around Genkai's temple while giving Yusuke advice on how to fight better.
As they walked around, Jenni and Yusuke got to know each other a little better.
After the small walk, they realized that it was almost time for dinner. They had a race to the entrance to the temple to see who was faster. Jenni won by a fraction of a second. They walked in to dinner and Yusuke and Jenni sat next to each other, making idle chat while they ate. Ryu was on Yusuke's shoulder from time to time if he felt Jenni shifting under his weight.
Yusuke actually didn't mind having the mini-dragon on his shoulder. He was kind of like a large bird.... larger and more dangerous than a bird.
After dinner, Jenni went upstairs, Ryu following her, and fed Kori. She then changed into a loose, long shirt and went to bed. That night, she had nightmares again.
(In Jenni's dream/flashback)
Jenni was running from a couple of demons. She had stolen from them, as she had to for a living, and nearly ran into someone. (By the way, this is a LONG time ago, in one of Jenni's previous lives. About 300 years before the actual story, to be exact.) She quickly moved out of the way, but the man picked her up by the back of her shirt.
"Hand her over, sir!" One of the officers panted, having had a hard time keeping up with Jenni.
"What did she do?" the man asked smoothly.
"She stole a couple apples and a loaf of bread from the bakery," The officer said.
"You can live without those, can't you?" the man asked.
"Yes, but the point is that she needs to learn that stealing is bad and will cost her something," the officer said, taking a step towards the man. Just then, a scythe flew at him and sliced his head off.
"What do you have there, Kurama?" A bat demon asked, looking at the man that was holding Jenni. Jenni's eyes widened and she curled up in a little ball.
"I think it's a little kit. She stole some stuff and was being chased by some officers. Looks like she did okay, as well," Yoko Kurama said, smiling down at Jenni. Jenni was shivering slightly. "She managed all the way from in the town."
The bat demon raised his eye brows. "Not bad at all, for a kid," he said, looking at Jenni. "Hey, Kurama, what's that?"
"I don't know, Kuronue," Yoko said, looking down at Jenni's little form. There were two small wings protruding from her back, but they were not like Kuronue's wings. Hers had feathers and looked angel-like.
"I think she's part angel, Kurama," Kuronue said, looking in amazement at Jenni, who merely shifter under the two piercing gazes. Just then, Jenni sneezed violently. Kurama and Kuronue both burst out laughing.
(In the life of Jenni that we are following (The one that was Genkai's apprentice))
Jenni ran from some officers from the Yakuza. Jenni ran faster and faster until she felt as though she were flying, not running. She happened to look over her should and saw two wings on her back. They were about 6 feet long each, making her wing span about 12 feet. Jenni gasped and her eyes widened as the wings flexed a bit, then, with one powerful stroke, Jenni was soaring in the air. She flew back to camp and found that Neko had long fangs and looked just like a vampire.
"Holy kuso," Jenni said, her eyes widening. She quickly went to sleep and, when she woke up in the morning, the wings were gone. "Thank goodness for that," Jenni whispered.
(Out of Jenni's dream/flashback)
Jenni sat bolt upright, panting. 'This is why I have to keep my mental barriers up,' Jenni thought to herself. 'Because they might get into my head and into my dreams, and that would be disastrous.'
Jenni got up, took a shower, and changed into a white tank top and black pants, which were good for training. She then went downstairs and saw that Neko was already up, as well as Hiei.
"Have nightmares, Rose?" Hiei asked with a smirk. Jenni turned away from him, ignoring the question. She sat down next to Sandra and told her to get a bigger breakfast than normal because training started today.
(At training)
Everyone was outside, watching the spectacle. Yusuke was going first against Jenni. Yusuke was smirking and Jenni was standing with a calm expression on her face.
"Begin!" Genkai shouted. Yusuke walked forward a bit, watching as Jenni did whatever she was doing. Just then, Jenni's spirit energy sky rocketed. Yusuke's also went up and the two glared at each other, fire in the background.
Yusuke made the first move. He ran at Jenni and tried to punch her. She dodged to the side and tried to punch him. He blocked it and sprang back, waiting Jenni's move. Jenni ran forward, throwing rapid punches and kicks at Yusuke. Yusuke blocked all of them but one, which sent him flying backwards. He smashed into a tree and got up again. Jenni grinned; this was going to be more fun than she had hoped!
Jenni and Yusuke both got their hands in the Spirit Gun position, only Jenni's was different. She was holding her right index finger like Yusuke was, but her left palm was facing straight out, aiming at Yusuke.
Genkai watched with interest. 'I hope she doesn't plan on using both,' Genkai thought, looking at Jenni.
'I am going to be doing something suicidal, but, if it's worth it, then it's worth it! And it better be worth it!' Jenni thought, glancing at Neko.
Yusuke fired his Spirit Gun and Jenni fired her Spirit Gun, adding something onto the end. Yusuke and Jenni fought with their energy. (Think the Toguro/Yusuke battle, only it's Spirit Gun against Spirit Gun) After two minutes, when neither of them had won, Jenni yelled, "Yusuke! Move back about 20 feet unless you want to get hurt!!" Yusuke looked at her oddly, but complied.
Just then, a bomb that was attached to Jenni's Spirit Gun went off, causing both energy balls to blow up. Jenni was thrown backwards by the force, but Yusuke and the others were fine. (By the way, Yusuke and the others are about 30 feet away while Jenni was about 10 feet away)
Jenni sat up, rubbing her head and looking at the small crater that she and Yusuke had made. She sweatdropped and felt someone helping her sit up. It was Yusuke. Jenni got up on her own, sending a small glare Yusuke's direction.
"Good. You still know how to blow things up," Genkai said sarcastically. Jenni smiled sheepishly and sweatdropped. "Hiei, test her speed."
Jenni grinned evilly. 'Now this is one thing I excel at!' Jenni thought, grinning like a maniac.
"Ready.. Set... GO!" Genkai yelled. Hiei and Jenni took off. Jenni sped into the forest, Hiei hot on her trail. Just then, Jenni made a small circle and stole Hiei's scarf. Hiei snarled and Jenni put on a burst of speed. (Okay, Jenni and Hiei are of about equal speed)
Hiei chased Jenni around the forest for about an hour before they came back to where Genkai was and Jenni ran around the group, still holding Hiei's scarf.
Kuwabara was now on the ground laughing, Yusuke was trying to control his, Kurama was smiling and chuckling, and Genkai was smiling a tiny bit. Jenni let his scarf float on the wind back to Hiei, who grabbed in and unsheathed his katana. Jenni's eyes bugged out and she hid behind Genkai. Hiei growled at her, then sheathed his sword.
Jenni sighed in relief. Genkai looked back at Jenni over her shoulder and saw the pendant shining brightly.
"Well, it's Neko's turn!" Jenni said, shoving her forward. Neko glared at Jenni, who merely grinned at her, and walked into the middle of the clearing, carefully avoiding the crater that Jenni and Yusuke had made.
Kurama also stepped forward. Neko's last thought before she started battling was, 'Why me?'
(Chapter 2: A tale and a chase)
Jenni sighed. 'I had hoped she wouldn't ask. Oh, well. I guess that I'll just half to tell the half-truth. Leave out the secret, and tell her the rest of the story. Great plan, Kit!'
Jenni looked at her teacher and smiled slightly.

Hiei chased Jenni around the forest for about an hour before they came back to where Genkai was and Jenni ran around the group, still holding Hiei's scarf.
Kuwabara was now on the ground laughing, Yusuke was trying to control his, Kurama was smiling and chuckling, and Genkai was smiling a tiny bit. Jenni let his scarf float on the wind back to Hiei, who grabbed in and unsheathed his katana. Jenni's eyes bugged out and she hid behind Genkai. Hiei growled at her, then sheathed his sword.
Jenni sighed in relief. Genkai looked back at Jenni over her shoulder and saw the pendant shining brightly.
"Well, it's Neko's turn!" Jenni said, shoving her forward. Neko glared at Jenni, who merely grinned at her, and walked into the middle of the clearing, carefully avoiding the crater that Jenni and Yusuke had made.
Kurama also stepped forward. Neko's last thought before she started battling was, 'Why me?'
