Now that that is settled...............................
Hard Knock Life
Ok, background check, your looks come later on, so for now, your personality. Your name
is Ariana. You are 12 years old. Your parents died when you were a baby. Your foster dad
is an abusive bastard. ou are 12 years old. Since you are abused, you are very distant and are
known as the class goth. You always wear long sleeves and baggy pants to cover the cuts
and bruises that he gives you. You are a very good student and have straight A's. You have
no idea that you are a demon. The guys are the same age. Got all that? Good. Now on with
the story!!
'Oh god, Jeff is gonna kill me!' you think as you run down the sidewalk as the sun is sinking.
When you get to the house, you quietly open the door. "Where were you?" asks Jeff (your
foster dad). 'I-I got caught up at s-school' "Didn't I tell you to ALWAYS be in before
dark?" 'Y-yes, please, it wont happen again!' you say tearing "Oh, but I know it wont happen
again!" he says viciously and throws you into a wall. Before you can get up, he kicks you in
the stomach. He does this several times then tells you to get up. Timidly, you do what he
says. When you are upright, he kicks the back of your knee and leaves you crumpled on
the floor crying. You crawl to your room, close the door and collapse on your bed.
The next morning you get up and put on a balck hoodie with a sliver dragon on it and some
pants with chains that make an x on the back. You quietly pick up your bag and walk out
the door. As you wait at the bus stop, you hear a rustling in the bushes. 'Who's there?'
you ask. There is more rustling, so you decide to check it out. The rustling gets faster
as you approach. When you part the leaves you find..........................a bunny. It flees when
it sees you and you breath a sigh of relief. When the bus finally comes, you get on and
make your way to the back of the bus. When you get to school, you go directly to
homeroom and sit in your seat in the back next to the window. The period goes by fast
with you doodling since you already understood the lesson. You go through you other
classes until lunch, when you go outside to sit under a tree and be alone. When the bell
rings, you go to language arts, your favorite class. Mr. Cross is really nice and gave you
the assaignment list at the beginning of the year, which you finished in about a month.
You finished it so quickly because you tend to lock yourself up in your room do to Jeff.
Mr. Cross lets you sort of be a teacher's assisstant. Today, you go and grab the tests
sitting on his desk and a red pen and retreat to your seat in the back to begin grading.
The bell rings again and class strats. Today Mr. Cross is talking about the novel the class
is reading, 'Animal Farm'. You listen for any additional information he may supply for
the test. When the period is over, you go up and put the tests on his desk, then head to
6th period. That class goes the same as ever, so Im skipping to bell.
When the bell rings,you go to your locker, grab your stuff and head out the door onto
the road. When you are about 2 blocks from your house, you hear the rustling again. This
time you just shrug it off and keep walking. Just then, somebody grabs you from behind,
clasping their hand over you mouth. "Do anything rash and you loose that pretty little head"
and they take out a switchblade and place it at your throat. Well the guy literally drags you
into this clearing where you see several other peole with crowbars, lead pipes and all sorts
of other lovely things like that. The guy pushes you into the middle of the circle and
says "Looky here boys, some poor lost little goth, kinda pretty for a kid too, too bad we're
gonna have to mess her up, huh?" His cronies nod evilly and then one comes at you, his
crowbar raised. 'HELP!!!!!!' you scream. "Aww, is the wittle guwl scawed?" asks the guy
using a VERY bad baby voice. You try to run, but one of them grabs you and slams you in
the chest with a pipe. You gasp in pain, trying to breath. You fall to the ground and try as
you might, you can't get up. The people see this as an oppertunity to punch you, kick you,
hit you with various items......When you are on the verge of blacking out, you hear shrieks
of pain from the bullies. You chance a look up and a guy with black hair fighting them off
of you. You feebily try and kick one, but fail miserably. Finally, the beatings stop and you
look up to see the bullies -and your savior- gone. Shakily, you stand up and hobble over to
where they dropped your bag, pick it up and continue on you way home.
By now, it is way past dark, and you know you are in for it at home. You know that even if
you climb through your window, the next morning you would get beaten twice as hard for
trying to get away with it. So, you walk through your front door. "You don't learn very
fast, do you?" says Jeff angrily. Before you can reply, he slaps you, "Don't try and back
talk to me young lady!" he cries and puches you in the stomach. Doubled over in pain, you
tay to run away, noly to find him holding your ankle. "Your disciplining isn't through yet!"
he says angrily. 'Oh yes it is!' you cry with a sudden burst of replenished energy. You run
up the stairs, into your room and slam the door, locking it. Within seconds, he is banging
on your door. You scream as the hinges on your door come loose and a purple faced Jeff
standing in the doorway. He runs into the room and slaps you with such force that you fall
over. He beats you harder than he has ever beaten you before. When he sees that you are
loosing conciousness, he says "NOW your disciplining is over!" and leaves you there. Finally,
everything goes black. (this tends to happen a lot if you haven't noticed)
When you wake up, its early morning and still dark. You go to your windowsill, sit down
and cry. Suddenly, out of the corner of your eye, you see two boys fighting a few blocks
from your house, in the clearing that those guys pummled you in. Then you realize, one of
the boys is the one that helped you. Seeing your chance to thank him, you carefully climb
out of your window and jog to the clearing. As you approach, you realize that one boy has
horns and doesn't look to friendly. The boy who helped you looks at you with an urgent
gleam in his eyes that seems to be saying "Get away! While you still can!" But you stand
your ground. All of a sudden, the boy is throttled into a wall by a weird light. He hits the
wall HARD. 'NOOOO!' you cry. You close your eyes and scream so loud it hurts your own
ears. When you open your eyes, you see the evil boy laying on the ground, not moving,
covered in ash. The guy who helped you is also on the ground. You rush over to him. 'Hey
mister, are you ok?' you ask worried for the one person who ever defended you. He just
groans and tries to get up, but fails and falls backwards again. But this time, instead of
hitting the ground completely, you catch his head. 'I just wanted to say thanks for saving me
yesterday' you say cautiously. "I'm the one who should be thanking you kid." he replies.
You hesitate, but then feeling bold say 'Well I wouldn't have been able to do anything if
you hadn't saved me.' "Well, can't argue with that logic!" he says, smirking. "Hey kid, what
is your name?" 'Oops, how rude of me! I'm Ariana, I'm sorry for not saying so earlier!'
you say, worried that he will hit you for being impudent. "I'm Yusuke. It isn't really a big
deal not introducing yourself earlier, it isn't like I'm gonna hit you for it!" he says joking,
but you just look down. Finally you say 'Thanks again, I'd better be going.' "Ariana, let me
walk you home, that guy has friends!" he says kindly. 'NO, it's alright, I'll be fine!' you reply.
Yusuke reaches out and takes your arm. You shrink back in fear, Jeff grabbed your arm
like that sometimes. "Ariana, can I see your arm, you look pained..." he asks. 'No, my arm
is fine, really!' you reply. "Ariana, if those guys hurt you worse than I thought yesterday,
I need to know, it's important!" Before you can protest anymore, Yusuke rolls down your
armwarmer and looks at your injured arm, which is practically all black and blue, and covered
in cuts and scrapes, induced by Jeff mostly. "Jeez Ariana, they really did that much damage?"
You don't reply, just stare at your feet. "Ariana did they even do this, or did someone
else?" he asks kindly. Again, you just stare silently at the grass. "Ok fine, don't answer me,
but I AM walking you home!!! This time you don't protest. So you start walking back towards
your house. During that time, he manages to get your nickname out of you -Ari-.
When you get to your front door, you give him a hug and say hurriedly 'I'll see you at
Sarayashiki (yes you both go there) now go, quick!!!' "Why, what's the big deal?" 'If you
must know, stick around behind that tree, but hurry up!!!' As soon as Yusuke is hidden behind
the tree, Jeff, almost on queue, swings open the door and grabs your arm the way Yusuke
just did, but with more force. You yelp in pain as he drags you through the front door and
slams it behind him. Quietly, Yusuke sneaks to the window, just in time to see you throttled
into the coffee table and slam your head against the wood. Jeff walks over as you grimace
in pain and begin his escapade of kicking and punching. With a bit of the energy you have left,
you glance towards the window and see an enraged Yusuke there. As everything goes black,
you hear the glass window shatter. (yes again, you're 12, you can take a lot, but your body
is still pretty weak from all the abuse you take)
When you wake up, you are in a king sized purple bed in a HUGE black room that has stars
all over the walls making it seem like it is night outside in there, until you look down and see
the dark purple carpet. You clap your hands and a light turns on. You survey the room. In
one corner you see a big stereo system with a whole hoard of cds, which you go and look at.
You discover they are all your favorite bands (keep in mind that you are gothic and you are
a very morbid person. I will mention the cds later they are rock, deal with it if you are not a
fan of rock :P.....) In another corner you see a big bookshelf filled with books. In another
part of the room lies a cabinet which you investigate and find is filled with weapons of all
sorts. In the last corner is a big dresser. You don't look in it, since you don't know whose
room this is and you don't want to anger anyone by snooping in the wrong places. Other than
that, you see a drum set (you know how to play, I do too!), a big screen tv, a plush couch,
a big platform of polished wood and two doors. You look in the first one and see it is a big
luxurious bathroom with a roman tub, shower, toilet and sink. You figure the other door
the way out so you open it and see 5 people sitting in the hallway. One of which, is Yusuke.
'Um..hi..' you say nervously. "Ari, you're awake!" says Yusuke happily. 'Yeah, um, me too...
Who are all these people? Where am I?' you ask "Oh crap, sorry! You're at my friend's
place and these peole are Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei and Botan." he says pointing to each of
them. They all smile except for one of them, Hiei, who just raises an eyebrow at you. You
look down and see you are only in a big t-shirt and some shorts. Wide eyed, you realize that
your bare arms and legs are showing. The others see this and Botan says "Dear Lord! You
poor thing!" 'Um, can I get changed?' you ask nervously. "Oh, of course! There should be
clothing of your liking in the dresser in your room! By the way, the room behind you IS
your room!" she says cheerfully, a bit TOO cheerfully. 'Thanks' you say and then turn
back into the room to go get changed. You head over to the dresser and find punk stuff,
with all sorts of accessories and stuff. So you decide on a black camisole with a red jacket
that exposes part of the camisole, a black miniskirt, black socks that are tigh high, some
combat boots and a black choker with a heart surrounded by black spikes. Next you go to the
bathroom and find a brush. After cleaning the shit out of it, you brush your hair and look
at yourself (now, you'll get described). You have shoulder length chesnut brown hair with
dark purple bangs. Your eyes are hazel and you are about 5'1" (hey that is taller than me!!!
Im only 5', I got measured today at the doctors!!!) You aren't overweight, but you are big
boned. Sighing in the mirror, you leave your hair down. Satisfied with yourself, you walk back
out of the room and Yusuke is waiting for you.
"Well isn't someone spiffy!" he jokes. You laugh a bit and start to walk with him.
'Hey Yusuke, where are we going?' you ask. "Oh! We are going to see my friend Koenma.
This is his place. He wants to talk to you." he replies 'Ok, that's cool' you say. So, the two
of you walk for a while, talking and you learn a lot about his and his friends' pasts, but he
fails to mention one detail......
Finally, you reach two big double doors and he opens them and you walk inside. The others
were there, as well as ... a toddler? 'Um, who is the baby?' you ask, looking at Botan. She
says "Oh how stupid of me, this is Koenma!" You know it is rude, but you can't suppress
laughter and you clutch your ribs in sudden pain, falling to your knees, gasping for air.
"Ariana!" cries an unfamiliar voice and imeadiately, two strong arms are picking you up
and putting you in a chair. 'Im fine, really' you say, but it comes out as no more than a
whisper. You look up to see who helped you and you see that it is...Kuwabara! (I'm not
making him a total ass in this for certain reasons of my own accord) 'Thanks' you say. "NO
problem" he replies. "Now Ariana," says the unfamiliar voice. You see that it is Koenma, "Do
you know anything about yourself?" 'What sort of question is that?' you ask, "I'm Ariana
Carter, 12 years old, disgrace of the Carter name, what else is there?'
"Oh but there is so much more Ariana! You have no clue that you are not human?" 'WHAT?!'
you cry so loud that you clutch your ribs again. "Ariana, you are a fire kitsune. You also have
the power of telepathy and have a strong pull to plants. You will be an outstanding fighter as
well, once you've learned how" says Koenma. "But this isn't all. There is one more thing!"
'And what else could there possibly be?!' you ask. "Well, you have family. Jeff kidnapped
you when you were a baby and told you your family was dead, when really, it was only your parents." '
What?! Who's my family?'"Well, one member is sitting to your right." you turn to your right
slowly to see a wide eyed Kuwabara sitting there. 'K-Kuwabara is my brother?' "Yes, and
Shizuru is your sister." You can't blieve what you are hearing. 'But why would Jeff want
to kidnap me?' "Well, you see,the three of you all got special abbilities. Shizuru has an
amazing 6th sense and she can fight like you wouldn't believe. Kuwabara also has a strong
6th sense and can call a sword made purely out of spirit energy. You however, are the
reincarnation of a powerful fire kitsune who used to work for the theif Youko Kurama."
At this you look over at peaceful Kurama and he nods, confirming the fact that it was him.
Koenma continues," Jeff wanted to aquire your power for himself, because he is a demon
as well and was waiting until your powers were unlocked so he could absorb them. He
thought that by hurting you, your powers would be unleashed faster, when in fact, you were
so strong that you kept your powers inside until you worried about Yusuke and some of your
fire and telepathis powers were unleashed, which is why that demon he was fighting, was
covered in ash,you burnt him to a crisp by screaming. It is part of your powers. telepathy
and fire used together is very powerful. In fact, once you have all of your powers, you will
probably be an A demon at least, if not a S class demon." He stops and lets all of this sink
in, before continuing. "We would like to unleash your powers as soon as you are ready, so
you will be able to defend yourself." After considering all of this, you say 'Well, how about
now then?' "Well, if you are sure, Botan, will you please go back to her room with her and
show her how to get around this maze of a place?" "Sure Koenma sir!" says Botan and the
two of you leave and you go back to your room. You have a good memory and remembered
how to get back to your room. As you two walked, Botan points out different points in the
house, including where the boys' bedrooms were, in case you needed to talk to one of them
until you got back to your hallway. Botan tells you how the rooms next you are empty and she
shows you her room. It was very peppy, except for one wall, which seemed very gloomy
and had stacks of papers on it. Since you know she is the grim reaper, you figure that that
was all her recent pick-ups to take to spirit world. You go back to your room and change
into a black t-shirt, black arm warmers, black sweatpants, some balck anarchy shoes
with a red insignia, and you put your hair half up. You re-emerge from the room and you
and Botan walk down some more halls and you soon have familiarized yourself with the
entire place. When you make it to the training field, the guys are waiting.
"Uh...sis, you don't have to dress like it is 20 degrees below..." says Kuwabara, who didn't
see your arms and legs earlier. 'You didn't see did you?' you say softly. "See what" he
asks. You think that you hear Hiei mutter "Baka" but you aren't sure. You roll down your
armwarmers, exposing your black and blue arms. Kuwabara's eyes go wide "Holy Shit!
He did that to you!?!?!?!?!?!" says a very angry Kuwabara "That bastard!!!! How dare he
hurt a Kuwabara like that?!" You stare down once again, a bit embarrased at his reaction.
You feel a hand on your shoulder and you see that it is Kurama. "Ariana, nobody will EVER
hurt you like that again." he says kindly, "So you don't have to hide it anymore, we are here
now to protect you until you can protect yourself and even then, you will never be alone
like that again. You can consider us like your brothers as well if you like. Because I know
that Yusuke and I and PROBABLY Hiei too, though he wouldn't admit it, feel like you're
our sister, not just Kuwabara's." You can't help but smile at how nice they all are to you.
Nobody had EVER been this nice to you and it is a wonderful feeling. 'Thank you, that means
a lot, more than you probably know.' "So, how are we gonna do this kiddo?" asks Yusuke,
breaking the silence. You laugh and say 'and how should I know? I've known about all this
stuff for how long now, 5 hours? 6?' "I know!!!" says Kuwabara," I'll use my brute
strength to force it out of her!" Yusuke looks at him and says "Right Kuwabara, you're
REALLY gonna BEAT it out of her, did we not just tell her that wouldn't happen again?"
Sheepishly, Kuwabara replies with an "oops" and scratches his foot along the ground.
You look at them and say 'What is that supposed to mean?' "Well, in order to unleash
the powers, you kinda have to be attacked says Yusuke nervously. 'Well if you must, I
guess I'm used to it by now.' you say and lay down on the ground and close your eyes. All
four boys look at you aghast and Hiei goes up to you, pulls you to your feet and says "Baka
onna, you are supposed to try and use your powers to fight back!!!" 'Oh' you say and cringe,
expceting a blow that never comes. When you look up, you see Hiei has taken fighting stance
on the other side of the field. Before you can think twice, Hiei has dissapeared. You have a
bad feeling that he's behind you so you turn around and jump out of the way and a blade
comes crashing down. You scream and run away, but he persues you until he finally hits your
shoulder. Biting your lip from a sudden pain in your head, you sink to your knees. You scream
as it feels like your head is beng ripped apart, but then the feeling goes down your spine
and coarses through your body. Then (surprise!) everything goes black.
When you wake up (that is what the 5th time in this quiz? oh well, there IS a reason for it)
you are back in your room. When you look around, you see the guys, Botan and three
unfamiliar girls standing around your bed. 'Um...hi!' you say to get their attention. They look
down at you and all have relieved looks on their faces. You sit up and see that all of your cuts
and stuff, are gone! 'What happened?' you ask. One of the girls steps forward. "I'm Yukina
and I healed you!" she says sweetly. 'Thank you! But who are your friends?' you ask, referring
to the two other girls. They step forward now "I'm Keiko, Yusuke's girlfriend!" says a girl
with short brown hair. Yusuke had told you about her - MANY times. 'It's nice to meet you'
you say, then a girl with long brown hair and hazel eyes says "I think you know who I am" and you
know imediately that this girl is Shizuru. 'Shizuru!' you cry and jump out of bed hugging her.
She chuckles and hugs you back "I remember the day that ass wipe took you. Our dear brother
was only 4, but I don't see why he wouldn't remember it....oh well, at least there are two
smart people in this family and only one baka!" she says brightly. You laugh and then Kuwabara
says "Hey! How come you didn't hug me when you found out that I was your brother?!"
Everyone except you anime falls. You walk over to him and say 'sorry!' and give him a hug
He then says "That's more like it, at least SOMEBODY respects me!" Yusuke cuts in and
says "Hey Ari, why didn't you sock him one in the jaw?" 'I don't like to get hit is all...' "Hn,
well kid you're gonna have to get over that if you're going to be joining us!" 'What are you
talking about?!' you say a bit confused. "Join the TEAM baka onna!" 'Oh...but I couldn't.
Besides why would you want me on your team anyways? I'd just mess you up...' "Will you
cut that out! You are NOT a screw up! You NEVER have been and you NEVER will be! Can't
you see that NONE of us will EVER hurt you? You're our little sister kid and we PROTECT
YOU!!!!!!!! Jeff or anybody like him will never get a chance to hurt you again because we are
here now and they will have to go through all of us to get to you!!!!!!!!" cries a VERY exhasperated
Yusuke. Eyes brimming with tears, you look at all of them and break down and sob. You feel
a hand on your shoulde rand you shake them off. You stand up and run out of the room and out
of the house, into the woods. You run until your legs won't carry you any more and by then, you
are far from home and hopelessly lost. Fed up with your life, you sit against a tree trunk
and reflect, something you did when you felt fed up living with Jeff. When night starts to
fall, you feel another hand on your shoulder, tapping on it. You gaze up and see a............
dog demon??
"Who are you?" he asks gruffly. 'Um... I'm Ariana...' Then a girl with black hair
comes up behind him and says "Sorry about my friend, he doesn't take to kindly to strangers,
I'm Kagome and this is Inuyasha." Then, more people come up behind kagome and introduce
themselves as Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kirara (introduced by Sango) and Myoga. Miroku seems
ok, Sango and Shippo seem very nice to you, Kirara doesn't talk (duh!) and Myoga kept
muttering about evil female fleas. Inuyasha seems like kind of a jerk at the moment and
Kagome seems really nice as well. You all talk for a while, until you hear voices calling
your name. The voices get closer and soon the voices emerge from the bushes as Kuwabara
and Yusuke. "Ariana?!" they cry. 'Um, yeah?' you reply and look at the shocked looks on your
new friends' faces. 'Ari, why are you with these people? Better yet, who the HELL are they?"
asks Yusuke (In case you haven't guessed, Yusuke and Shizuru are the only ones who will
be using your nickname) Miroku steps forward and introduces himself and his comrads "How may
we be of assisstance to you?" "Well, for starters, get the HELL away from our sister, and
secondly all of you need to be going with us, NOW!" says Yusuke coldly. After much persuasion
and getting to make his own personal crater in the forest floor, Inuyasha agrees to go
as well.
Back at Koenma's office "So let me get this straight, all of you with the exception
of Kagome are from the fuedal era?" asks Koenma. "Yeah, that sums it up pretty well"
says Sango. "Inuyasha, is your brother by any chance Sesshomaru, ruler of the
Western Lands?" asks Koenma "Hm, I guess my asshole brother has made enough of
a name for himslef that you know who he is" says Inuyasha "Actually, I was curious about
YOU, were you not the only one to steal the Shikon No Tama from the priestess Kikyou?"
asks Koenma "Yes, That was me, nut how would you know that little talking baby?" "I'M NOT
A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS AROUND BEFORE YOU WERE SO DON'T EVEN GO THERE!!!!"
screams Koenma. Inuyasha looks a bit taken aback. "Now", says Koenma, regaining his
composure, "Ariana will you please show our female guests to their rooms? And you four
boys will of course take our male guests to their quarters, some of you will have to share.
Now go, go to sleep!" 'I wonder why my sister wasn't there today you think as you lead the girls through
the halls until you reach your hall. First you tell Sango, Kagome and Kirara that Botan is
at one end of the hall and Keiko, Yukina and Shizuru are in the other three rooms. First
you take Sango to the room on the left of your own. It is the same size as yours with sky
blue walls and green carpet so it looks like outside in the day. She has a bookcase filled with
slaying strategies and martial arts books and basically the same things as you, except she has
a large stand for her boomerang rather than a weaponry closet and her own cds. 'I need to ask
Koenma about that closet' you think to yourself as you help her and Kirara get settled. Next
you take Kagome to the room on your right. This room is also the same size as your own and
has PINK (egh o--o puke)walls and a white carpet. This room had a bookshelf filled with
archery tips and random things as well as a stand for her bow and arrows. Other than that,
she also had the same thing as you, but with her own cds. Once you are sure they are both
settled, you go back to your own room and fall into a dreamless sleep.
A month later, you wake up and it is still dark outside. So, you walk around the halls
quietly, so as not to wake anybody up. You hear people muttering, but you know that nobody
is awake yet. You look around and, not seeing anyone say 'Hello?' Suddenly, a group of
teenagers that look about your brothers' ages appear ( not counting Kurama and Hiei since
they are MANY years older than they appear....)in front of you. You take one look at these
people who just appeared out of thin air and scream. Instantly, EVERYBODY (Yyh & Inuyasha
characters) is in the center of the hallway. "Whats the matter?!" asks Kuwabara. All you
do is point towards the shadowy corner where these newcomers are. Evryone's gaze falls
over there and they see the people too. "More people? Jeez, didn't think we had enough"
mutters Hiei. Yusuke says calmy but with a hint of aggitation in his voice " You guys need
to go with us, everybody else might as well come too" and with that you all head back towards
Koenma's office.
Back in Koenma's office (again) Surprised, Koenma looks up "What the hell
are you all in here for this EARLY?!" he asks. You all part so he can see the new people.
He looks shocked "Who the hell are they?" he asks. "Dunno, they won't say anything"
says Kurama good naturedly. The people are all just gawking at Koenma, the talking baby.
Realizing this, Koenma goes behind a screen thingy and emerges in his teen form "Now
will you tell us who you are and why the HELL you're here?" he asks irritabley. This time,
a boy with raven hair and brilliant green eyes steps forward. "Well, I'm Harry, that is Ron"
he says pointing to a boy with orange hair to challenge Kuwabara's and blue eyes "That is
Hermione" pointing to a girl with curly brown hair and hazel eyes, "Luna" pointing to a
girl with distant eyes and dirty-blond hair "Ginny" pointing to a girl with equally orange hair
as the boy ron, appearing to be his sister "and Neville" he finishes, pointing to a boy with
brown hair and brown eyes. They all wave akwardly and you wave back. "And how exactly
did you get here?" Koenma asks again. This time, the girl named Hermione answers. "Well,
we were all on holiday in Tokyo, we went for a walk in the woods using Harry's invisibility
cloak and all of a sudden we were in this BLOODY place!" Koenma, a bit taken aback by
her outburst continues, "Well since we have even MORE guests, we will all be sharing rooms,
because I simply do NOT have THAT many rooms. Figure it out amongst yourselves and
come back later when you all have informed the new comers of the situation and why
they can't return to their world right now! Now OUT OF MY OFFICE!!!!!" Everyone hurries
out of the office and into the hallway. Everyone stands there awkwardly until your brother
steps forward and takes Hermione's hand. "Dear Hermione, you can share a room with me,
I will protect you from all evil!" Disgusted, Hermione pulls her hand away and sluggs him.
Yusuke laughs out loud "Finally! Kuwa got what he deserves!!!!!" Kuwabara sits up and yells
"Urameshi!!!!!!!!!!!! Just you wait until I chatch you! You are dead! This time for GOOD!"
During all of this, you walk up to Hermione and say ' Sorry about my brother, he tends to
think that his ugly face attracts every girl he meets that he isn't related to.' (As the month
went by, you have become much bolder, don't think everyone is gonna hurt you and have unleashed
your powers. You have not seen your demon form yet though) She laughs and you say 'You
can stay with me if you'd like, other than my other sister, I'm basically the only one that
can keep my brother in line without having to knock his lights out, except sometimes, that
way is SO much MORE fun!' you say laughing. She laughs again and says "Sure, I'll stay
with you, especially since that way, I'll get to 'punch his lights out' as you say much more!
Since he is your broter, he must check up on you more!" Both of you go into a fit of laughter
and when you stop laughing finally, everyone, with the exception of Botan, Yukina, Keiko
and Shizuru have roomates. The roomates are :Inuyasha and Miroku, hiei and Shippo
(poor Shippo), Kuwabara and Neville, Yusuke and Ron, Kurama and Harry, Sango Kirara
and Ginny, Kagome and Luna, and of course you and Hermione. (sorry to those of you
who dislike Hermione, but she is my seocnd favorite character, my first favorite is a draw
between Fred and George, but since they have their store to run, they may not be in this
story :'[ ) So, you and Hermione go back to your room. You first tell her about your life,
how you met the gang, about being Kuwabara's sister, (leaving out the demon part) running
away and meeting the group (Inuyasha & co) and then meeting her and her friends. When
you finish telling her that stuff,she is in tears. 'I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry!'
you say sadly. "No, it's alright! I guess I'll tell you about my life." She then tells you about
her parents, getting her letter for Hogwarts, meeting her friends, stuff that has happened
to them over the years and this evil dude Voldemort who killed Harry's parents and godfather.
When she finished, you were sad, but you didn't cry. You haven't cried for a few weeks.
Hiei taught you how to suppress your tears. So you now have to tell her about what Koenma
told you to tell her. 'Well, you see, Kurama, Hiei, Yukina, Shippo and I are demons. Yusuke and
Inuyasha are half demons, and my dear brother and my sister are human with spiritual energy.
Keiko, Kagome, Sango and Miroku are all human. Keiko packs a fierce slap when Yusuke
decides to be perverted, Kagome is the reincarnation of a powerful priestess, Sango was
a demon slayer and Miroku is a monk. Bets watch out for him, he is even worse than my
brother and Yusuke he'll probably ask you to ear his children. Ignore it, or better yet,
punch him!' you say enthusiastically. Hermione laughs and says "I'm gathering that you
want to punch him?" 'Yeah I do, but I -thankfully- am too young for his interest. My sister
however has turned him down so many times I think he is going for a record!!!' After that,
you tell her about Spirit world, more about demons and why she couldn't go home. Thankfully,
she understands and then she tells you more about the wizarding world. Once she finishes you
look at the clock and see that it is 6:00, and you both missed lunch and in fact it is almost
dinner time! The two of you go to the kitchen and see Yukina, Keiko and Botan cooking dinner.
You say hello to them and then go get plates, forks, knives, spoons and napkins. Next you
two go to the dining room and set the table for 22 (daaaaaaaaamn) people. While you set
the table, you continue talking. "You know, Im surprised" Hermione says 'Why is that?'
"Well, you are a LOT like me when I was 12, except for..well.. Jeff" 'Really?' "Yeah, you
actually care about school, yor attitude, loyalty to your friends, you know.. we should study
sometime..." 'That would be a lot of fun, except, somehow I don't think that we are taking
the same courses if you know what I mean...' "Yeah, too bad....." 'Let's go tell everyone that
dinner will be ready soon!' "ok!" so the two of you head back through the hallways to the boys
hallway, first going to Hiei and Shippo's room. You let them know and see that they were
playing somesort of game, so you go to the next room, Kurama and Harry's. They are reading.
In Inuyasha and Miroku's room, they are training and barely hear you. The next room is
Kuwabara and Neville's, but they weren't there, so you go to the last room, Yusuke and Ron's
and sure enough, all four of them were in there, playing poker. You laugh as you see that Yusuke
has a big pile of money behind him and the sullen look on your brother's face. 'Whats the
matter bro?' you ask innocently. "Whats the matter?! I'll tell ya whats the matter! I
lost 600 yen to Urameshi in the last half hour. Thats what the matter is!!!!" 'Ok jeez,
birth a cow why dontcha!' you laugh and tell them about dinner, which gets all their attention.
They invite you both to play with them, but you decline, since you have to tell more people.
You both laugh again and then head to the girls hallway. You go to Sango and Ginny's
room first, let them know and then they go back to discussing batal strategies, next you go
to Kagome and Luna's room, let them know, and then they go back to discussing
Crumple-Horned Snorkacks. Next you go to Shizuru's room and tell her that dinner is just
about ready, so she walks with you back to the dining room, where four certain boys are
already waiting with watering mouths. You go into another fit of laughter as you sit down.
The boys just look at you oddly until you say, 'Sooo, Yusuke, how far from BROKE are ya
these days?' Smugly he says "Oooooh, only about 1,098.70 yen..." This starts up your laughing
all over again. "What is soooo funny?" 'That....is...only....ten......dollars....in...America......' you
say between laughs."WHAT!?!"
Tune in next time for the dinner party!!!!!
and Cheryl, ok? I do not own Harry Potter anything, Inuyasha anything or YuYu Hakusho
anything (cept merchandise) since I am not J.K Rowling, Rumiko Takahasi or Yoshihiro
Togashi!!!!
Now that that is settled...............................
Hard Knock Life
Ok, background check, your looks come later on, so for now, your personality. Your name
is Ariana. You are 12 years old. Your parents died when you were a baby. Your foster dad
is an abusive bastard. ou are 12 years old. Since you are abused, you are very distant and are
known as the class goth. You always wear long sleeves and baggy pants to cover the cuts
and bruises that he gives you. You are a very good student and have straight A's. You have
no idea that you are a demon. The guys are the same age. Got all that? Good. Now on with
the story!!
'Oh god, Jeff is gonna kill me!' you think as you run down the sidewalk as the sun is sinking.
When you get to the house, you quietly open the door. "Where were you?" asks Jeff (your
foster dad). 'I-I got caught up at s-school' "Didn't I tell you to ALWAYS be in before
dark?" 'Y-yes, please, it wont happen again!' you say tearing "Oh, but I know it wont happen
again!" he says viciously and throws you into a wall. Before you can get up, he kicks you in
the stomach. He does this several times then tells you to get up. Timidly, you do what he
says. When you are upright, he kicks the back of your knee and leaves you crumpled on
the floor crying. You crawl to your room, close the door and collapse on your bed.
The next morning you get up and put on a balck hoodie with a sliver dragon on it and some
pants with chains that make an x on the back. You quietly pick up your bag and walk out
the door. As you wait at the bus stop, you hear a rustling in the bushes. 'Who's there?'
you ask. There is more rustling, so you decide to check it out. The rustling gets faster
as you approach. When you part the leaves you find..........................a bunny. It flees when
it sees you and you breath a sigh of relief. When the bus finally comes, you get on and
make your way to the back of the bus. When you get to school, you go directly to
homeroom and sit in your seat in the back next to the window. The period goes by fast
with you doodling since you already understood the lesson. You go through you other
classes until lunch, when you go outside to sit under a tree and be alone. When the bell
rings, you go to language arts, your favorite class. Mr. Cross is really nice and gave you
the assaignment list at the beginning of the year, which you finished in about a month.
You finished it so quickly because you tend to lock yourself up in your room do to Jeff.
Mr. Cross lets you sort of be a teacher's assisstant. Today, you go and grab the tests
sitting on his desk and a red pen and retreat to your seat in the back to begin grading.
The bell rings again and class strats. Today Mr. Cross is talking about the novel the class
is reading, 'Animal Farm'. You listen for any additional information he may supply for
the test. When the period is over, you go up and put the tests on his desk, then head to
6th period. That class goes the same as ever, so Im skipping to bell.
When the bell rings,you go to your locker, grab your stuff and head out the door onto
the road. When you are about 2 blocks from your house, you hear the rustling again. This
time you just shrug it off and keep walking. Just then, somebody grabs you from behind,
clasping their hand over you mouth. "Do anything rash and you loose that pretty little head"
and they take out a switchblade and place it at your throat. Well the guy literally drags you
into this clearing where you see several other peole with crowbars, lead pipes and all sorts
of other lovely things like that. The guy pushes you into the middle of the circle and
says "Looky here boys, some poor lost little goth, kinda pretty for a kid too, too bad we're
gonna have to mess her up, huh?" His cronies nod evilly and then one comes at you, his
crowbar raised. 'HELP!!!!!!' you scream. "Aww, is the wittle guwl scawed?" asks the guy
using a VERY bad baby voice. You try to run, but one of them grabs you and slams you in
the chest with a pipe. You gasp in pain, trying to breath. You fall to the ground and try as
you might, you can't get up. The people see this as an oppertunity to punch you, kick you,
hit you with various items......When you are on the verge of blacking out, you hear shrieks
of pain from the bullies. You chance a look up and a guy with black hair fighting them off
of you. You feebily try and kick one, but fail miserably. Finally, the beatings stop and you
look up to see the bullies -and your savior- gone. Shakily, you stand up and hobble over to
where they dropped your bag, pick it up and continue on you way home.
By now, it is way past dark, and you know you are in for it at home. You know that even if
you climb through your window, the next morning you would get beaten twice as hard for
trying to get away with it. So, you walk through your front door. "You don't learn very
fast, do you?" says Jeff angrily. Before you can reply, he slaps you, "Don't try and back
talk to me young lady!" he cries and puches you in the stomach. Doubled over in pain, you
tay to run away, noly to find him holding your ankle. "Your disciplining isn't through yet!"
he says angrily. 'Oh yes it is!' you cry with a sudden burst of replenished energy. You run
up the stairs, into your room and slam the door, locking it. Within seconds, he is banging
on your door. You scream as the hinges on your door come loose and a purple faced Jeff
standing in the doorway. He runs into the room and slaps you with such force that you fall
over. He beats you harder than he has ever beaten you before. When he sees that you are
loosing conciousness, he says "NOW your disciplining is over!" and leaves you there. Finally,
everything goes black. (this tends to happen a lot if you haven't noticed)
When you wake up, its early morning and still dark. You go to your windowsill, sit down
and cry. Suddenly, out of the corner of your eye, you see two boys fighting a few blocks
from your house, in the clearing that those guys pummled you in. Then you realize, one of
the boys is the one that helped you. Seeing your chance to thank him, you carefully climb
out of your window and jog to the clearing. As you approach, you realize that one boy has
horns and doesn't look to friendly. The boy who helped you looks at you with an urgent
gleam in his eyes that seems to be saying "Get away! While you still can!" But you stand
your ground. All of a sudden, the boy is throttled into a wall by a weird light. He hits the
wall HARD. 'NOOOO!' you cry. You close your eyes and scream so loud it hurts your own
ears. When you open your eyes, you see the evil boy laying on the ground, not moving,
covered in ash. The guy who helped you is also on the ground. You rush over to him. 'Hey
mister, are you ok?' you ask worried for the one person who ever defended you. He just
groans and tries to get up, but fails and falls backwards again. But this time, instead of
hitting the ground completely, you catch his head. 'I just wanted to say thanks for saving me
yesterday' you say cautiously. "I'm the one who should be thanking you kid." he replies.
You hesitate, but then feeling bold say 'Well I wouldn't have been able to do anything if
you hadn't saved me.' "Well, can't argue with that logic!" he says, smirking. "Hey kid, what
is your name?" 'Oops, how rude of me! I'm Ariana, I'm sorry for not saying so earlier!'
you say, worried that he will hit you for being impudent. "I'm Yusuke. It isn't really a big
deal not introducing yourself earlier, it isn't like I'm gonna hit you for it!" he says joking,
but you just look down. Finally you say 'Thanks again, I'd better be going.' "Ariana, let me
walk you home, that guy has friends!" he says kindly. 'NO, it's alright, I'll be fine!' you reply.
Yusuke reaches out and takes your arm. You shrink back in fear, Jeff grabbed your arm
like that sometimes. "Ariana, can I see your arm, you look pained..." he asks. 'No, my arm
is fine, really!' you reply. "Ariana, if those guys hurt you worse than I thought yesterday,
I need to know, it's important!" Before you can protest anymore, Yusuke rolls down your
armwarmer and looks at your injured arm, which is practically all black and blue, and covered
in cuts and scrapes, induced by Jeff mostly. "Jeez Ariana, they really did that much damage?"
You don't reply, just stare at your feet. "Ariana did they even do this, or did someone
else?" he asks kindly. Again, you just stare silently at the grass. "Ok fine, don't answer me,
but I AM walking you home!!! This time you don't protest. So you start walking back towards
your house. During that time, he manages to get your nickname out of you -Ari-.
When you get to your front door, you give him a hug and say hurriedly 'I'll see you at
Sarayashiki (yes you both go there) now go, quick!!!' "Why, what's the big deal?" 'If you
must know, stick around behind that tree, but hurry up!!!' As soon as Yusuke is hidden behind
the tree, Jeff, almost on queue, swings open the door and grabs your arm the way Yusuke
just did, but with more force. You yelp in pain as he drags you through the front door and
slams it behind him. Quietly, Yusuke sneaks to the window, just in time to see you throttled
into the coffee table and slam your head against the wood. Jeff walks over as you grimace
in pain and begin his escapade of kicking and punching. With a bit of the energy you have left,
you glance towards the window and see an enraged Yusuke there. As everything goes black,
you hear the glass window shatter. (yes again, you're 12, you can take a lot, but your body
is still pretty weak from all the abuse you take)
When you wake up, you are in a king sized purple bed in a HUGE black room that has stars
all over the walls making it seem like it is night outside in there, until you look down and see
the dark purple carpet. You clap your hands and a light turns on. You survey the room. In
one corner you see a big stereo system with a whole hoard of cds, which you go and look at.
You discover they are all your favorite bands (keep in mind that you are gothic and you are
a very morbid person. I will mention the cds later they are rock, deal with it if you are not a
fan of rock :P.....) In another corner you see a big bookshelf filled with books. In another
part of the room lies a cabinet which you investigate and find is filled with weapons of all
sorts. In the last corner is a big dresser. You don't look in it, since you don't know whose
room this is and you don't want to anger anyone by snooping in the wrong places. Other than
that, you see a drum set (you know how to play, I do too!), a big screen tv, a plush couch,
a big platform of polished wood and two doors. You look in the first one and see it is a big
luxurious bathroom with a roman tub, shower, toilet and sink. You figure the other door
the way out so you open it and see 5 people sitting in the hallway. One of which, is Yusuke.
'Um..hi..' you say nervously. "Ari, you're awake!" says Yusuke happily. 'Yeah, um, me too...
Who are all these people? Where am I?' you ask "Oh crap, sorry! You're at my friend's
place and these peole are Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei and Botan." he says pointing to each of
them. They all smile except for one of them, Hiei, who just raises an eyebrow at you. You
look down and see you are only in a big t-shirt and some shorts. Wide eyed, you realize that
your bare arms and legs are showing. The others see this and Botan says "Dear Lord! You
poor thing!" 'Um, can I get changed?' you ask nervously. "Oh, of course! There should be
clothing of your liking in the dresser in your room! By the way, the room behind you IS
your room!" she says cheerfully, a bit TOO cheerfully. 'Thanks' you say and then turn
back into the room to go get changed. You head over to the dresser and find punk stuff,
with all sorts of accessories and stuff. So you decide on a black camisole with a red jacket
that exposes part of the camisole, a black miniskirt, black socks that are tigh high, some
combat boots and a black choker with a heart surrounded by black spikes. Next you go to the
bathroom and find a brush. After cleaning the shit out of it, you brush your hair and look
at yourself (now, you'll get described). You have shoulder length chesnut brown hair with
dark purple bangs. Your eyes are hazel and you are about 5'1" (hey that is taller than me!!!
Im only 5', I got measured today at the doctors!!!) You aren't overweight, but you are big
boned. Sighing in the mirror, you leave your hair down. Satisfied with yourself, you walk back
out of the room and Yusuke is waiting for you.
"Well isn't someone spiffy!" he jokes. You laugh a bit and start to walk with him.
'Hey Yusuke, where are we going?' you ask. "Oh! We are going to see my friend Koenma.
This is his place. He wants to talk to you." he replies 'Ok, that's cool' you say. So, the two
of you walk for a while, talking and you learn a lot about his and his friends' pasts, but he
fails to mention one detail......
Finally, you reach two big double doors and he opens them and you walk inside. The others
were there, as well as ... a toddler? 'Um, who is the baby?' you ask, looking at Botan. She
says "Oh how stupid of me, this is Koenma!" You know it is rude, but you can't suppress
laughter and you clutch your ribs in sudden pain, falling to your knees, gasping for air.
"Ariana!" cries an unfamiliar voice and imeadiately, two strong arms are picking you up
and putting you in a chair. 'Im fine, really' you say, but it comes out as no more than a
whisper. You look up to see who helped you and you see that it is...Kuwabara! (I'm not
making him a total ass in this for certain reasons of my own accord) 'Thanks' you say. "NO
problem" he replies. "Now Ariana," says the unfamiliar voice. You see that it is Koenma, "Do
you know anything about yourself?" 'What sort of question is that?' you ask, "I'm Ariana
Carter, 12 years old, disgrace of the Carter name, what else is there?'
"Oh but there is so much more Ariana! You have no clue that you are not human?" 'WHAT?!'
you cry so loud that you clutch your ribs again. "Ariana, you are a fire kitsune. You also have
the power of telepathy and have a strong pull to plants. You will be an outstanding fighter as
well, once you've learned how" says Koenma. "But this isn't all. There is one more thing!"
'And what else could there possibly be?!' you ask. "Well, you have family. Jeff kidnapped
you when you were a baby and told you your family was dead, when really, it was only your parents." '
What?! Who's my family?'"Well, one member is sitting to your right." you turn to your right
slowly to see a wide eyed Kuwabara sitting there. 'K-Kuwabara is my brother?' "Yes, and
Shizuru is your sister." You can't blieve what you are hearing. 'But why would Jeff want
to kidnap me?' "Well, you see,the three of you all got special abbilities. Shizuru has an
amazing 6th sense and she can fight like you wouldn't believe. Kuwabara also has a strong
6th sense and can call a sword made purely out of spirit energy. You however, are the
reincarnation of a powerful fire kitsune who used to work for the theif Youko Kurama."
At this you look over at peaceful Kurama and he nods, confirming the fact that it was him.
Koenma continues," Jeff wanted to aquire your power for himself, because he is a demon
as well and was waiting until your powers were unlocked so he could absorb them. He
thought that by hurting you, your powers would be unleashed faster, when in fact, you were
so strong that you kept your powers inside until you worried about Yusuke and some of your
fire and telepathis powers were unleashed, which is why that demon he was fighting, was
covered in ash,you burnt him to a crisp by screaming. It is part of your powers. telepathy
and fire used together is very powerful. In fact, once you have all of your powers, you will
probably be an A demon at least, if not a S class demon." He stops and lets all of this sink
in, before continuing. "We would like to unleash your powers as soon as you are ready, so
you will be able to defend yourself." After considering all of this, you say 'Well, how about
now then?' "Well, if you are sure, Botan, will you please go back to her room with her and
show her how to get around this maze of a place?" "Sure Koenma sir!" says Botan and the
two of you leave and you go back to your room. You have a good memory and remembered
how to get back to your room. As you two walked, Botan points out different points in the
house, including where the boys' bedrooms were, in case you needed to talk to one of them
until you got back to your hallway. Botan tells you how the rooms next you are empty and she
shows you her room. It was very peppy, except for one wall, which seemed very gloomy
and had stacks of papers on it. Since you know she is the grim reaper, you figure that that
was all her recent pick-ups to take to spirit world. You go back to your room and change
into a black t-shirt, black arm warmers, black sweatpants, some balck anarchy shoes
with a red insignia, and you put your hair half up. You re-emerge from the room and you
and Botan walk down some more halls and you soon have familiarized yourself with the
entire place. When you make it to the training field, the guys are waiting.
"Uh...sis, you don't have to dress like it is 20 degrees below..." says Kuwabara, who didn't
see your arms and legs earlier. 'You didn't see did you?' you say softly. "See what" he
asks. You think that you hear Hiei mutter "Baka" but you aren't sure. You roll down your
armwarmers, exposing your black and blue arms. Kuwabara's eyes go wide "Holy Shit!
He did that to you!?!?!?!?!?!" says a very angry Kuwabara "That bastard!!!! How dare he
hurt a Kuwabara like that?!" You stare down once again, a bit embarrased at his reaction.
You feel a hand on your shoulder and you see that it is Kurama. "Ariana, nobody will EVER
hurt you like that again." he says kindly, "So you don't have to hide it anymore, we are here
now to protect you until you can protect yourself and even then, you will never be alone
like that again. You can consider us like your brothers as well if you like. Because I know
that Yusuke and I and PROBABLY Hiei too, though he wouldn't admit it, feel like you're
our sister, not just Kuwabara's." You can't help but smile at how nice they all are to you.
Nobody had EVER been this nice to you and it is a wonderful feeling. 'Thank you, that means
a lot, more than you probably know.' "So, how are we gonna do this kiddo?" asks Yusuke,
breaking the silence. You laugh and say 'and how should I know? I've known about all this
stuff for how long now, 5 hours? 6?' "I know!!!" says Kuwabara," I'll use my brute
strength to force it out of her!" Yusuke looks at him and says "Right Kuwabara, you're
REALLY gonna BEAT it out of her, did we not just tell her that wouldn't happen again?"
Sheepishly, Kuwabara replies with an "oops" and scratches his foot along the ground.
You look at them and say 'What is that supposed to mean?' "Well, in order to unleash
the powers, you kinda have to be attacked says Yusuke nervously. 'Well if you must, I
guess I'm used to it by now.' you say and lay down on the ground and close your eyes. All
four boys look at you aghast and Hiei goes up to you, pulls you to your feet and says "Baka
onna, you are supposed to try and use your powers to fight back!!!" 'Oh' you say and cringe,
expceting a blow that never comes. When you look up, you see Hiei has taken fighting stance
on the other side of the field. Before you can think twice, Hiei has dissapeared. You have a
bad feeling that he's behind you so you turn around and jump out of the way and a blade
comes crashing down. You scream and run away, but he persues you until he finally hits your
shoulder. Biting your lip from a sudden pain in your head, you sink to your knees. You scream
as it feels like your head is beng ripped apart, but then the feeling goes down your spine
and coarses through your body. Then (surprise!) everything goes black.
When you wake up (that is what the 5th time in this quiz? oh well, there IS a reason for it)
you are back in your room. When you look around, you see the guys, Botan and three
unfamiliar girls standing around your bed. 'Um...hi!' you say to get their attention. They look
down at you and all have relieved looks on their faces. You sit up and see that all of your cuts
and stuff, are gone! 'What happened?' you ask. One of the girls steps forward. "I'm Yukina
and I healed you!" she says sweetly. 'Thank you! But who are your friends?' you ask, referring
to the two other girls. They step forward now "I'm Keiko, Yusuke's girlfriend!" says a girl
with short brown hair. Yusuke had told you about her - MANY times. 'It's nice to meet you'
you say, then a girl with long brown hair and hazel eyes says "I think you know who I am" and you
know imediately that this girl is Shizuru. 'Shizuru!' you cry and jump out of bed hugging her.
She chuckles and hugs you back "I remember the day that ass wipe took you. Our dear brother
was only 4, but I don't see why he wouldn't remember it....oh well, at least there are two
smart people in this family and only one baka!" she says brightly. You laugh and then Kuwabara
says "Hey! How come you didn't hug me when you found out that I was your brother?!"
Everyone except you anime falls. You walk over to him and say 'sorry!' and give him a hug
He then says "That's more like it, at least SOMEBODY respects me!" Yusuke cuts in and
says "Hey Ari, why didn't you sock him one in the jaw?" 'I don't like to get hit is all...' "Hn,
well kid you're gonna have to get over that if you're going to be joining us!" 'What are you
talking about?!' you say a bit confused. "Join the TEAM baka onna!" 'Oh...but I couldn't.
Besides why would you want me on your team anyways? I'd just mess you up...' "Will you
cut that out! You are NOT a screw up! You NEVER have been and you NEVER will be! Can't
you see that NONE of us will EVER hurt you? You're our little sister kid and we PROTECT
YOU!!!!!!!! Jeff or anybody like him will never get a chance to hurt you again because we are
here now and they will have to go through all of us to get to you!!!!!!!!" cries a VERY exhasperated
Yusuke. Eyes brimming with tears, you look at all of them and break down and sob. You feel
a hand on your shoulde rand you shake them off. You stand up and run out of the room and out
of the house, into the woods. You run until your legs won't carry you any more and by then, you
are far from home and hopelessly lost. Fed up with your life, you sit against a tree trunk
and reflect, something you did when you felt fed up living with Jeff. When night starts to
fall, you feel another hand on your shoulder, tapping on it. You gaze up and see a............
dog demon??
"Who are you?" he asks gruffly. 'Um... I'm Ariana...' Then a girl with black hair
comes up behind him and says "Sorry about my friend, he doesn't take to kindly to strangers,
I'm Kagome and this is Inuyasha." Then, more people come up behind kagome and introduce
themselves as Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kirara (introduced by Sango) and Myoga. Miroku seems
ok, Sango and Shippo seem very nice to you, Kirara doesn't talk (duh!) and Myoga kept
muttering about evil female fleas. Inuyasha seems like kind of a jerk at the moment and
Kagome seems really nice as well. You all talk for a while, until you hear voices calling
your name. The voices get closer and soon the voices emerge from the bushes as Kuwabara
and Yusuke. "Ariana?!" they cry. 'Um, yeah?' you reply and look at the shocked looks on your
new friends' faces. 'Ari, why are you with these people? Better yet, who the HELL are they?"
asks Yusuke (In case you haven't guessed, Yusuke and Shizuru are the only ones who will
be using your nickname) Miroku steps forward and introduces himself and his comrads "How may
we be of assisstance to you?" "Well, for starters, get the HELL away from our sister, and
secondly all of you need to be going with us, NOW!" says Yusuke coldly. After much persuasion
and getting to make his own personal crater in the forest floor, Inuyasha agrees to go
as well.
Back at Koenma's office "So let me get this straight, all of you with the exception
of Kagome are from the fuedal era?" asks Koenma. "Yeah, that sums it up pretty well"
says Sango. "Inuyasha, is your brother by any chance Sesshomaru, ruler of the
Western Lands?" asks Koenma "Hm, I guess my asshole brother has made enough of
a name for himslef that you know who he is" says Inuyasha "Actually, I was curious about
YOU, were you not the only one to steal the Shikon No Tama from the priestess Kikyou?"
asks Koenma "Yes, That was me, nut how would you know that little talking baby?" "I'M NOT
A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS AROUND BEFORE YOU WERE SO DON'T EVEN GO THERE!!!!"
screams Koenma. Inuyasha looks a bit taken aback. "Now", says Koenma, regaining his
composure, "Ariana will you please show our female guests to their rooms? And you four
boys will of course take our male guests to their quarters, some of you will have to share.
Now go, go to sleep!" 'I wonder why my sister wasn't there today you think as you lead the girls through
the halls until you reach your hall. First you tell Sango, Kagome and Kirara that Botan is
at one end of the hall and Keiko, Yukina and Shizuru are in the other three rooms. First
you take Sango to the room on the left of your own. It is the same size as yours with sky
blue walls and green carpet so it looks like outside in the day. She has a bookcase filled with
slaying strategies and martial arts books and basically the same things as you, except she has
a large stand for her boomerang rather than a weaponry closet and her own cds. 'I need to ask
Koenma about that closet' you think to yourself as you help her and Kirara get settled. Next
you take Kagome to the room on your right. This room is also the same size as your own and
has PINK (egh o--o puke)walls and a white carpet. This room had a bookshelf filled with
archery tips and random things as well as a stand for her bow and arrows. Other than that,
she also had the same thing as you, but with her own cds. Once you are sure they are both
settled, you go back to your own room and fall into a dreamless sleep.
A month later, you wake up and it is still dark outside. So, you walk around the halls
quietly, so as not to wake anybody up. You hear people muttering, but you know that nobody
is awake yet. You look around and, not seeing anyone say 'Hello?' Suddenly, a group of
teenagers that look about your brothers' ages appear ( not counting Kurama and Hiei since
they are MANY years older than they appear....)in front of you. You take one look at these
people who just appeared out of thin air and scream. Instantly, EVERYBODY (Yyh & Inuyasha
characters) is in the center of the hallway. "Whats the matter?!" asks Kuwabara. All you
do is point towards the shadowy corner where these newcomers are. Evryone's gaze falls
over there and they see the people too. "More people? Jeez, didn't think we had enough"
mutters Hiei. Yusuke says calmy but with a hint of aggitation in his voice " You guys need
to go with us, everybody else might as well come too" and with that you all head back towards
Koenma's office.
Back in Koenma's office (again) Surprised, Koenma looks up "What the hell
are you all in here for this EARLY?!" he asks. You all part so he can see the new people.
He looks shocked "Who the hell are they?" he asks. "Dunno, they won't say anything"
says Kurama good naturedly. The people are all just gawking at Koenma, the talking baby.
Realizing this, Koenma goes behind a screen thingy and emerges in his teen form "Now
will you tell us who you are and why the HELL you're here?" he asks irritabley. This time,
a boy with raven hair and brilliant green eyes steps forward. "Well, I'm Harry, that is Ron"
he says pointing to a boy with orange hair to challenge Kuwabara's and blue eyes "That is
Hermione" pointing to a girl with curly brown hair and hazel eyes, "Luna" pointing to a
girl with distant eyes and dirty-blond hair "Ginny" pointing to a girl with equally orange hair
as the boy ron, appearing to be his sister "and Neville" he finishes, pointing to a boy with
brown hair and brown eyes. They all wave akwardly and you wave back. "And how exactly
did you get here?" Koenma asks again. This time, the girl named Hermione answers. "Well,
we were all on holiday in Tokyo, we went for a walk in the woods using Harry's invisibility
cloak and all of a sudden we were in this BLOODY place!" Koenma, a bit taken aback by
her outburst continues, "Well since we have even MORE guests, we will all be sharing rooms,
because I simply do NOT have THAT many rooms. Figure it out amongst yourselves and
come back later when you all have informed the new comers of the situation and why
they can't return to their world right now! Now OUT OF MY OFFICE!!!!!" Everyone hurries
out of the office and into the hallway. Everyone stands there awkwardly until your brother
steps forward and takes Hermione's hand. "Dear Hermione, you can share a room with me,
I will protect you from all evil!" Disgusted, Hermione pulls her hand away and sluggs him.
Yusuke laughs out loud "Finally! Kuwa got what he deserves!!!!!" Kuwabara sits up and yells
"Urameshi!!!!!!!!!!!! Just you wait until I chatch you! You are dead! This time for GOOD!"
During all of this, you walk up to Hermione and say ' Sorry about my brother, he tends to
think that his ugly face attracts every girl he meets that he isn't related to.' (As the month
went by, you have become much bolder, don't think everyone is gonna hurt you and have unleashed
your powers. You have not seen your demon form yet though) She laughs and you say 'You
can stay with me if you'd like, other than my other sister, I'm basically the only one that
can keep my brother in line without having to knock his lights out, except sometimes, that
way is SO much MORE fun!' you say laughing. She laughs again and says "Sure, I'll stay
with you, especially since that way, I'll get to 'punch his lights out' as you say much more!
Since he is your broter, he must check up on you more!" Both of you go into a fit of laughter
and when you stop laughing finally, everyone, with the exception of Botan, Yukina, Keiko
and Shizuru have roomates. The roomates are :Inuyasha and Miroku, hiei and Shippo
(poor Shippo), Kuwabara and Neville, Yusuke and Ron, Kurama and Harry, Sango Kirara
and Ginny, Kagome and Luna, and of course you and Hermione. (sorry to those of you
who dislike Hermione, but she is my seocnd favorite character, my first favorite is a draw
between Fred and George, but since they have their store to run, they may not be in this
story :'[ ) So, you and Hermione go back to your room. You first tell her about your life,
how you met the gang, about being Kuwabara's sister, (leaving out the demon part) running
away and meeting the group (Inuyasha & co) and then meeting her and her friends. When
you finish telling her that stuff,she is in tears. 'I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry!'
you say sadly. "No, it's alright! I guess I'll tell you about my life." She then tells you about
her parents, getting her letter for Hogwarts, meeting her friends, stuff that has happened
to them over the years and this evil dude Voldemort who killed Harry's parents and godfather.
When she finished, you were sad, but you didn't cry. You haven't cried for a few weeks.
Hiei taught you how to suppress your tears. So you now have to tell her about what Koenma
told you to tell her. 'Well, you see, Kurama, Hiei, Yukina, Shippo and I are demons. Yusuke and
Inuyasha are half demons, and my dear brother and my sister are human with spiritual energy.
Keiko, Kagome, Sango and Miroku are all human. Keiko packs a fierce slap when Yusuke
decides to be perverted, Kagome is the reincarnation of a powerful priestess, Sango was
a demon slayer and Miroku is a monk. Bets watch out for him, he is even worse than my
brother and Yusuke he'll probably ask you to ear his children. Ignore it, or better yet,
punch him!' you say enthusiastically. Hermione laughs and says "I'm gathering that you
want to punch him?" 'Yeah I do, but I -thankfully- am too young for his interest. My sister
however has turned him down so many times I think he is going for a record!!!' After that,
you tell her about Spirit world, more about demons and why she couldn't go home. Thankfully,
she understands and then she tells you more about the wizarding world. Once she finishes you
look at the clock and see that it is 6:00, and you both missed lunch and in fact it is almost
dinner time! The two of you go to the kitchen and see Yukina, Keiko and Botan cooking dinner.
You say hello to them and then go get plates, forks, knives, spoons and napkins. Next you
two go to the dining room and set the table for 22 (daaaaaaaaamn) people. While you set
the table, you continue talking. "You know, Im surprised" Hermione says 'Why is that?'
"Well, you are a LOT like me when I was 12, except for..well.. Jeff" 'Really?' "Yeah, you
actually care about school, yor attitude, loyalty to your friends, you know.. we should study
sometime..." 'That would be a lot of fun, except, somehow I don't think that we are taking
the same courses if you know what I mean...' "Yeah, too bad....." 'Let's go tell everyone that
dinner will be ready soon!' "ok!" so the two of you head back through the hallways to the boys
hallway, first going to Hiei and Shippo's room. You let them know and see that they were
playing somesort of game, so you go to the next room, Kurama and Harry's. They are reading.
In Inuyasha and Miroku's room, they are training and barely hear you. The next room is
Kuwabara and Neville's, but they weren't there, so you go to the last room, Yusuke and Ron's
and sure enough, all four of them were in there, playing poker. You laugh as you see that Yusuke
has a big pile of money behind him and the sullen look on your brother's face. 'Whats the
matter bro?' you ask innocently. "Whats the matter?! I'll tell ya whats the matter! I
lost 600 yen to Urameshi in the last half hour. Thats what the matter is!!!!" 'Ok jeez,
birth a cow why dontcha!' you laugh and tell them about dinner, which gets all their attention.
They invite you both to play with them, but you decline, since you have to tell more people.
You both laugh again and then head to the girls hallway. You go to Sango and Ginny's
room first, let them know and then they go back to discussing batal strategies, next you go
to Kagome and Luna's room, let them know, and then they go back to discussing
Crumple-Horned Snorkacks. Next you go to Shizuru's room and tell her that dinner is just
about ready, so she walks with you back to the dining room, where four certain boys are
already waiting with watering mouths. You go into another fit of laughter as you sit down.
The boys just look at you oddly until you say, 'Sooo, Yusuke, how far from BROKE are ya
these days?' Smugly he says "Oooooh, only about 1,098.70 yen..." This starts up your laughing
all over again. "What is soooo funny?" 'That....is...only....ten......dollars....in...America......' you
say between laughs."WHAT!?!"
Tune in next time for the dinner party!!!!!
