Mabuhay! I'm back from the dead. Oh! I'm really really sorry for the long wait. I've had some major financial problems due to our failing family business (maybe because the Philippines' economy is down), plus I was so busy with my job. I thought I would never have a chance to write the next chapter.

Anyway, I was so overjoyed that my story got 11 reviews. (whoopee! does the happy-happy-joy-joy dance...) Thanks to the following people:

Hyperhanyo - Thank you! You're my first reviewer ever! I'm ever so grateful.

Kitsune16 – Wow! Would you believe that you're one of my favorite authors? I'm so honored that you put me in your favorite authors list. It really is my first time to make a story. And thanks, I'll take that as a compliment.

To crescentmoon-cat, omasuoniwabanshi, Lady of Roses, KittySand Katie, What a scene, kuramazlilsis, house-crazy-gurl, Cristina Gomez and Animoon:

Recap:

'Then I'm gonna make you my pet.' Said Botan.

Kurama was confused. What is this girl talking about?

Just then, he saw a small fox outside the glass window. Its color was white, almost silvery, and had tiny green orbs. It was so cute that you can mistake it for a stuffed toy.

Kurama suddenly sweatdropped when it dawned on him.... He was not seeing a fox outside the window.... He was looking at his own reflection.

Chapter 2

Kurama was dumbfounded when he realized what had occurred. I'm a fox??? Well, I AM a fox in my past life, but why this??? He was Youko Kurama, the Legendary Thief of Makai. He was famous, or rather infamous, and most feared for his reputation of being a ruthless killer. Just the sound of his name sends shivers to his enemies. And although he was now a ningen, still he has a reputation to stand for. But how am I supposed to do that now that I look like, like this??? He can't even bring himself to say the word.

Botan kept looking at the chibi fox in front of her. You are the cutest thing I've ever seen. She thought about this, while unconsciously stroking the fox's cute little head. Its fur was so white and soft that Botan couldn't help herself but gently pet the adorable creature. (So kawaii !!!)

'Well, first things first, what should I call you?' Kurama was still too busy contemplating on the unexpected turn of events to notice what Botan was doing.

Knock! Knock! Knock! 'Botan-chan, It's me Hinageshi. I was just...' She stopped midway of her sentence when she saw what Botan was doing.

'Oh Kami-sama, that's the cutest thing I've ever seen. Where ever did you find it?' Hinageshi said as she almost run to where Botan is seated.

'That's the same thing I thought. Isn't she adorable?' Botan said as she held up the fox for her friend to see.

'She? What's her name then?' Hinageshi said as she joined Botanin"petting" the little creature.

'That's what I've been pondering about before you came. Do you have any idea? What do you think about the name... Sakura?'

'Nah. How about... Usagi?'

'Nope. Hmmm.... I know!!! Ah, Akane.'

'Hey, Hinageshi! Hinageshiiii!' Someone called outside Botan's room. It was none other than George, Koenma's faithful ogre.

'I've been looking all over for you. Koenma-sama's wondering what had happened to you. I thought you came to Botan to tell her that she's wanted in the Boss' office?'

'Huh? Oh yeah! I forgot about that. Heehee...' The ferry girl said while scratching her head.

'What have you been doing here, anyway?' The ogre surprised of the young red head's sudden absent-mindedness.

'Here.' She said as she pointed to the fox Botan was still holding. 'Isn't it the cutest? We were thinking about what to name her.'

Hey, when did Hinageshi and George get here? I didn't even notice when they came. Kurama said as he finally snapped out of his trance.

'Her? You mean the fox? How do you know that it's a she, not a he?'

Her??? She??? What are they talking about now?

'Of course it's a girl. Something as cute as this is surely a girl. Right? Right Hinageshi?'

'Yeah, Botan's right.... I Think.'

This is worse than I thought! It's bad enough that I'm stuck as a cutesy fox! But still being mistaken as a girl in this form? Kami-sama, what did I do to deserve this!!!

'Here, let me check for myself.' The ogre said as he suddenly took the fox from Botan.

George held the fox up and started inspecting the fox to find out its gender.

Kurama was surprised. What the hell? This is so degrading! I feel so humiliated!!! He said as he tried to wriggle out of the ogre's clutches, which is no use since the latter's hand was big enough to hold the little fox quite adequately. As a last resort, Kurama bit the ogre's hand.

'Owwww!!!! Get it off me! Get it off me!' George shouted as he tried to peel off the fox from his hand as it dangled by its fangs. 'Ouch! Ouch!' he continued.

The two girls sweatdropped. Since they couldn't do anything about it, they just stood there looking at the ogre as he run across the room trying to wriggle the fox from his left hand.

After an agonizingly (for George, that is) short while, the fox decided to stop. It landed with a soft thug on the floor and crawled to the direction of the two ferry girls, holding its head up high.

'Awww. Isn't that cute???' the two girls chorused.

That should teach you a lesson. No one can humiliate ME and get away with it... But.... Phew...Phew.... That was nasty. Blech.... Not to mention disgusting! To Kurama, saying that an ogre is the worst thing he has tasted is the biggest understatement of the century. Quick! I need soap and water to wash my mouth.

'Why you little ---snorglepuss---. I'm gonna get you for this, you ---snorglepuss---', the ogre shouted after he let some of the pain subside. He was now charging towards the perpetrator and about to tackle him.

Kurama noticed this and readied for the attack. What? You want some more pain, huh?

'Hey! What do you think you're doing?' Botan said as her oar accidentally hit the ogre, again and again and again. 'Leave the poor creature alone.'

'Yeah!' The red head agreed with the bluenette (A/N: get it...hehe). 'Why don't you pick on someone your own size, huh??'

Kurama sweatdropped.

'You poow wittle baby' (A/N: translation: You poor little baby). Botan said as she picked up Kurama and carried him like a baby. 'Did the big bad ogre hurt you?' She added as she threw dagger looks at the so-called villain.

'What? Now I'm the evil one. I'm the victim here you know.' He almost cried as he remembered the pain inflicted upon him just a while ago.

'Well, I think you deserve that for picking on the poor defenseless animal, you know.' The smaller girl added.

'That's it. Gang up on the poor ogre. You think you're always right? Huh!' George said. 'But you're wrong about one thing--- She is a HE. I'm sure about that.' He added, as he was about to leave.

'Wait! How did you know that?' Hinageshi called out to the ogre before he could set foot outside the room.

Yeah! How did he know? Kurama was perplexed, but at the same time relieved –- relieved that his gender issues were now cleared.

'Because I'm a man. I know when a see one. The male species are usually full of pride, you know. We are more aggressive than the female. And we have this tendency to get angry with those of the same sex, than those of the opposite sex.' George said with conviction.

'Wow, George! You know all that???'

'Yeah! I have no idea you know so many things about this matter.'

The girls were amazed at the knowledge that the ogre imparted.

'Of course I know that.' George said proudly, but then his expression changed. 'Plus, I saw his ---snorglepuss---.'

The two girls and the fox fell anime-style.

'Why you! You almost fooled us.' said Hinageshi.

'Why didn't you tell us in the first place, anyway?' Botan added, as the two girls start advancing to the ogre.

'Well.... hehe. What's that! I think I hear Koenma-sama calling me. Ja ne!' George said as the two girls only saw gust of wind from where the ogre stood seconds ago.

'That George is gonna get it. I'll tell Koenma-sama about this.'

'Koenma-sama!!!!! Oh no! He's gonna kill me. I was supposed to call you because he needs you right away.' Hinageshi almost shouted as she dragged Botan by the hand.

'What? Why didn't you tell me this earlier? C'mon let's go.' The two run to their waiting boss.

'Chotto Matte!' They screeched to a stop. 'I can't let Koenma-sama see her, I mean him.'

'Well, you're right about that.'

'Wait here. I'm just gonna return him to my room.'

IN BOTAN'S ROOM

'Be a good wittle baby. Mommy will be back right away.' She kissed the fox before she placed him on top of her bed and went off to the prince.'

She didn't saw that the little fox blushed because of the little kiss.

To be continued......

That's it for Chapter 2. Don't forget to review, minna! Also, could anyone please give me new ideas? I need it badly. You see, I have a lot of ideas I would want to write but I can't seem to connect them, and there are a lot of loopholes in the plot. So tasukete kudasai! (Please help!)

And please tell me if I made mistakes, (FYI, English is not my native tongue, so is Nihonggo, so please understand!) I will be very grateful.
