Next Day :: Saturday ::
The sun shone through the window of Kurama's room. The roses seemed to stretch towards the lights warmth. Kurama opened his eyes sleepily and then sat up. He stretched, stood up, and did his morning things. After he had changed his clothes, eaten, brushed his teeth, and taken a shower he came back into his room and watered the plants. But his mind was elsewhere's.
Misha... His mind was split. Half of it was in his past, with that Misha and the other was blocks away, with a sleeping Misha. They are so much alike... He compared them, Red hair like mine, green eyes like mine but different somehow. Claws to nails, fangs to teeth, attitude....attitude, it changes only just. She is extra sensitive, she is able to sense stuff too... Kurama noticed he was drowning one of his window roses. He quickly stopped watering it and set the watering can, small, down. He looked out the window at the sky.
He stood like that for a while, then he walked down stairs. "Good Morning Suichi" His mother said. "Good Morning Mother."
He sat in a chair at the table next to his mother who was finishing her breakfast. "Mother?"
"Yes?"
"Can you still draw well?" (If she can't, TOO BAD, she can in my story) His mother looked surprised
"Suichi, what would you need me to draw?"
"A picture of a girl." His mom did not take it the way Misha's mom took it.
"What for?"
"I want to see something..." He seemed to be thinking. So she agreed. He had her draw one with red hair like his and green eyes like his, with school outfit like Keiko's on, and a watch. He then had her draw another girl, on a separate sketch pad, a girl with red hair like his and green eyes like his.
His mom stopped, "Honey, is this the same girl?"
"Basically, but I need you to change it a bit." She nodded and continued. She was to be wearing a blue Inuyasha's outfit and have claws on her hands and feet, and fangs. He also asked that she have ears on her head and a tail, he thought now about how much Misha and him had looked alike. Afterwards his mother asked if there was any real reason for the pictures.
He answered with a short, not mean just short, "Comparing" He picked up the pictures and brought them to his room, where he looked at them carefully.
They were so much alike. Change the claws into nails and the fangs into teeth and it's almost the same. He laid them down, his head was beginning to hurt so he went to the window for fresh air. There were people walking by to work or play. After a few minutes he went back to the pictures and looked them over. This time he noticed that there was something in the present Misha's picture he hadn't noticed before.
It was barely noticeable because her watch covered it up mostly, but he could see the point of something. He thought that it was possibly a tattoo, but he hadn't mentioned it at all. He went downstairs and asked his mom.
"Mom?"
"Yes dear?"
"What's this?" He pointed to it.
"I don't know. I don't remember drawing it..." Kurama was surprised. He looked at it then laid the picture down and went for the door. "Where are you going Suichi?"
"I'm going to go see Misha, see if that is just a mark on the paper." She smiled and let him go.
Kurama rushed, meaning walked faster than usual, towards Misha's house. He then stopped short. "Where does Misha live?"
"Why are you going there or something?" Came a voice behind him. He turned to see Kuwabara and Yusuke there.
"Hello Yusuke, Kuwabara. Where are you off to?"
"Well, we were going to your house to get you." Kurama was surprised by Yusuke's comment.
"Why?"
Kuwabara - "Well, Koenma said he had something to tell us. I'm guessing it is a break in the mission."
Kurama nodded and decided to wait till later for his search.
Kuwabara looked around. "So, uh, should we bring Misha along too?" Hiei jumped down with a firm, "No"
Yusuke - "Why not? Cause she PASSED the test?" Hiei 'hn'ed and Yusuke head off in a direction, "Going to Misha's!" He said, as if it was a long journey he had to take in a video game and he was the hero.
Misha's House ::
Misha was examining her wrist. Why had it hurt so much when she had comforted Kurama? It had a faint red glow but that was it. It didn't hurt anymore, and the light was getting brighter. "What is with this light?" She then heard a knock at her door.
"Hey! Misha!" Great, it was Yusuke. She got up and cover her wrist with her sleeve, she was wearing extra long sleeves today.
She opened the door. "Yea?"
Yusuke pulled her out of the house by her left arm and dragged her to the street, Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara were walking up. "Hey Guys! I got her, let's go." And off they went.
"What's going on?" Misha said after they had gone passed her house. Kurama spoke first.
"You remember the conversation you overheard?" Nod. "Well, Koenma supposedly has some more information for us." Nod. "But, we have to go to"
Yusuke cut in, "A special place. So, can we blind fold you? It's location is secret." She nodded but was skeptical. They blind folded her and before she knew it she could hear Yusuke and them mumbling about something. She listened.
"Should we take it off now or wait till we're inside?"
"I think we can take it off now." Hiei 'hn'ed and then Kurama took the blind fold off.
She gasped. In front of her was a large, no HUGE, door in front of her. "Wow" she said as she fell over. She had tilted her head back and tried to see the top of the door. Hiei scoffed and Yusuke pressed the button on the key pad thing.
"Hey guys! It's Yusuke, I'm here with Kuwabara Kurama Hiei and Misha, We've come to speak with Koenma" A muffled, 'Alright' came from it and the doors opened. Misha again gasped.
It was like a giant throat. "Eww" She said softly. She followed them in and snuck a glace and her jewel. It was glowing so she had to cover it up quickly before the others noticed.
Soon they reached the other side and Kurama pressed the button this time. "Hello? Koenma asked to see us, please open the doors." So they, whoever 'they' were, opened the doors and it was, as Yusuke put it, a demon stock market. The multicolored creatures inside surprised Misha and she jumped back a little.
"What the Heck?" Kuwabara laughed.
Kurama explained, "This is Spirit World. Those are some other demons, and Koenma is the leader of Spirit World, that is, when his father is away. Otherwise he is just second down." She looked from Kurama to the other demons,
"But Kurama, these demons look nothing like you or Hiei." Hiei, Yusuke, and Kuwabara were shocked. She knew that Kurama and Hiei were demons? Yusuke and Kuwabara shrugged it off pretty quick, but Hiei look disgruntled.
"Kurama?"
"Yes Hiei?"
"How does she know that?" Kurama sweat dropped.
"Well, uh, you see, uh...heh heh..." Hiei glared daggers at Kurama and Yusuke cut in,
"Let's not fight, just go see Koenma. Ok?" Hiei just 'hn'ed and walked in, Kuwabara went in to, Yusuke was leading and Kurama was just before Misha.
Misha seemed to be having trouble keeping herself from touching stuff, that is she wanted to but was telling herself no and was on the last thread to picking something up. But Kurama saw, he was probably the only one, that she had snuck a very expensive looking pen and snuck it into her pocket. Kurama laughed once.
"Koenma sir, we're here." Kurama said. A voice, that didn't sound like a rulers voice said,
"Good. Did you bring her?"
"Yes sir." Kurama replied.
"Very Good." The chair turned around to show...
"A baby? Spirit World is run by a toddler?" Misha said, not as loud and disrespectful as Yusuke had but still. Koenma cleared his throat and told her what he had told Yusuke. She nodded still holding back a laugh. She soon got rid of it and never laughed it.
"Nice to meet you." She said, extending a hand. He shook it and she thought it was weird shaking hands with someone so small.
"So chief, what's new?" Yusuke suddenly said. Koenma pointed behind them where a screen had appeared. They turned around and looked. Koenma clicked a button on his remote.
A silhouette appeared on screen, it was the silhouette of a girl. It got smaller and moved to the right, information appeared on the left. Her estimated age, her gender, and how long that the sensors had known she was there, about 3 weeks. There was a new bit of information, her eye color, but that was it.
"Green? Green eyes? Well, that does narrow it down...but why are we looking anyway?" Yusuke asked.
Everyone looked at Yusuke.
Koenma said, "Well, this energy was examined, and there is a quality about it. Something there that is making it more powerful than usual. If used to the full extent, this power could destroy anything. It's very dangerous."
"Well, that's bad isn't it. Heh, guess we'd better go back and find her then huh?" Kuwabara said, looking at the screen, "Not much more to go on though...." Everyone looked at the screen again and Koenma's eyes widened.
"Amazing" They turned to him. "That the girl that over heard you looks just like Kurama." He chuckled once. "Very...strange" And he left the room. Misha then noticed that everyone was staring at her. She looked at each one. "What?" Kuwabara laughed.
"He's right! They do look the same! Red hair and Green eyes! You two could be siblings." He and Yusuke walked out and Hiei followed after a 'hn' to show he didn't really care. Kurama and Misha were left staring at each other. Misha could see herself in his eyes.
"Heh, I guess we do look alike." Misha said. Kurama smiled. "Come on then 'brother'" she said brother some what sarcastically. They left the room.
