Chapter VII- A plan put into action
"So, this is the place." Yusuke said standing outside a door. He knocked several times and waited for a reply.
The door creaked slowly open and Yusuke stared at the young man before him. His raven black hair fell nearly to his shoulders disappearing into the black folds of his button-down shirt which was tucked tightly into his kaki pants. He black eyes stared at the detective for a moment almost as if he were looking into his soul.
"May I help you?" His voice finally rang.
"Yes, um… the school district sent me, something about a tutor or some crap that." Yusuke responded holding up a pink sheet of paper.
The man looked at him skeptically before nodding. "Right this way." He said retreating back into the house.
Yusuke sighed. He wasn't entirely sure that he could pass off as the kid he knocked out at the base of apartment complex but no one argued so he kept his cool.
"It was a normal apartment, one three guys would live in any way. It consisted of the three basic layers. The top layer being candy rappers and food packages, under that dirty clothes that had failed to make it to the washing machine, and lastly the carpet that God knows what growing on it. Yup, just a normal apartment. Nothing was suspicious, except for the fact that these teen age guys failed to have play boy magazines thrown in all sorts of directions. Odd, very odd…"
"Is there a reason as to why you're talking to yourself?" The man who had let him in asked.
"Damn I'm gunna have to be more careful!" Yusuke thought to himself. "Just going over school material, ya know how that is."
The man nodded disbelievingly.
"So…what's your name?" Yusuke asked trying to brake the awkward silence.
He looked at Yusuke out of the corner of his eye. "Toshiro."
"That's cool so uh, where's the brat I'm supposed to be tutoring?" Yusuke questioned.
"He's in his room, please have a seat at the kitchen table and I'll get him." Toshiro nodded towards a table.
"Cool." Yusuke said nodding his head and sat down. Seconds after he was out of eat shot he continued his narration.
"He said this was the place but I dunno if I believe him. I mean, if these guys are really the big bad-ass demons he claims them to be shouldn't they be like, planning my down fall or something? They could AT LEAST ask few more questions. Did they think I was stupid or some thing? I was certain these where NOT the guys he was looking for. Now, if only I could find this Nick guy, I'd love to hang him up by his balls for what he did to…"
"I am sorry to interrupt your idiotic ramblings but you are here for the purpose of teaching me this crap you call Algebra. I understand that your love life is less then admirable, though I can see clearly why you are turned down. Down if you can close your mouth for mere seconds I shall ready myself to endure the droning sound of your voice as I sleep through your annoying lectures." A heavily accented French voice came from the doorway of the small kitchen.
"And you are?" Yusuke asked
"Christopher Jean Claude Phillip Ronald Jabooski the second. But you may call me, Jean Claude." The young Frenchmen stated.
"Yo I'm Yusuke." Yusuke said with a half-hearted two-fingered salute. "Alright now lets teach you this Algy-bra crap."
Back in Spirit World the new found demons sat in the living room as Hiei reclined in his windowsill staring intently at their reflections. Jenny was laying boredly on her stomach almost completely covered by pillows that ere thrown at her as she lay on the couch. Dom and Erin were in the middle of a heated game of Jin, Dom was sprawled out on the floor, also laying on her stomach, while Erin sat Indian style.
"I wonder what a Spirit Detective actually does." Jenny said rolling to look at the ceiling.
"Dunno." Erin said in her 'I'm multi-tasking' voice.
"I bet it's something cool." Jenny mused as she picked up one of the pillows, that had fallen to the floor when she rolled over, and put it behind her head.
"Probably not. They most likely sit on their big fat butts and do nothing!" Dom said mockingly.
"But I mean, they have all those cool powers, they must put it to good use." Jenny stated.
"They may not enjoy their line of work though. I mean I wouldn't like to go around killing every thing in sight." Erin added.
"Well you're a retard." Dom said.
"Yeah I guess. They should atleast get cool uniforms or something." Jenny said making a mental picture of the four of them in uniforms.
"Yeah Kuwabara in spandex. Glad to know my life is in his capable hands." Dom scoffed and Jenny shivered at the thought.
"No, uniforms would give them away, it'd be like holding up a giant sign that says 'Hey punk, I'm about to kill you'. Normally you don't want to let your prey know you're about to kill them." Erin explained her eyes never leaving the game.
"Yeah so? Dom does that all the time." Jenny informed.
"So what if I…" Dome began.
"Jin." Erin said laying down the cards in hand.
"I HATE YOU YUSUKE!" Dom yelled.
"Dom, he's not even here do you have to keep saying that?" Erin asked.
"Yes! He was mean to Kurama and now he must suffer!" Dom replied with a murderous gleam in her eyes.
"Hasn't he looked at you enough today?" Hiei asked not taking his eyes away form the window.
"OH! Well you know what...if you didn't have that sword with you...you'd be...DEAD!" Dom exclaimed standing and pointing a very threatening finger at him.
"What would you do, poke me to death? I'm so scared." He said sarcastically.
"Uh!....I outta...I...I....GR!" She said before running into her room and slamming the door.
"Woo Hoo! Go Hiei! I've been trying to do that for MONTHS!" Jenny cheered looking over at the fire demon.
"Hn." Was all he said in reply.
"What happened? I heard yelling and a door being slammed." Kurama asked at he entered the room.
"Hiei just insulted Dom so she went into her room." Erin explained, her eyes lighting up at the sight of him.
Kurama sighed and shoot his head. "I better go apologize, for Hiei." Kurama said. Erin looked up at him slightly hurt. The two stared at each other for a long moment before she smiled.
"Alright." She said and began cleaning up the cards.
"I'm glad I've put up with Kuwabara all these years because after five minutes of reciting Kuwabara's life story to Mr. Frenchy he was out like a light, leaving me free to roam the house. A few seconds before the kid collapsed the guy who let me in said he was stepping out for a little while. So now that the brat was out cold I could do what I came here to do. I slipped out of the kitchen in as stealthy like a manor as possible. Along with my 007 license they also awarded me most stealth like. Steal the cookies right out of your lunch if you don't watch out.. HI YA!"
"Um dude… is there a reason why you're walking around and doing weird karate moves in my living room?" A voice from the couch asked.
"Well my young man," Yusuke began in a very scholarly voice with a slight English accent. "I am Vonsuki, Musical Arts and Drama director at dear Mr. Jabooboo's school. Part of my requirements as a teacher is I must travel to each of my students houses and see that they are living in proper conditions."
The boy stared at Yusuke with a blank expression for a few moments. "Alright that's cool. I'm gunna go take a leak just….don't brake any thing." and with that he walked out of the room.
Yusuke sighed. "Damn that was close." He said before continuing his 'investigation'.
Kurama knocked softly on the door before he heard a loud 'GO AWAY!' from inside. Ignoring the request he entered the room. It reminded him a lot of Hiei's. Black wall's, black ceiling, black carpet, black pretty much every thing. To his left was a large blood red door that hung open. Inside he could see her bathroom which was also completely blood red. His eyes glanced over to the bed where he saw Dom laying face down on the black silk sheets.
'Nice' A voice inside his head purred.
'Don't get any ideas.' Kurama answered again in his head.
"I thought I told you to go away." Dom said into the pillow.
"Dominic, Koenma has asked me to do some thing rather...difficult, though I promise you have nothing to worry about." Kurama said. Dom rolled over and sat up.
"Well if you had just said some thing sooner, I mean I always thought you have a little something for Erin but if you really feel that way...um…gimme sec to change into some thing ok?" Dom asked pushing herself up.
"Wait." Kurama panicked and she sunk back down into the bed, feet draping over the edge. "That's not why I'm here."
"Oh." Dom said a slight color staining her cheeks.
"Um…" Kurama mumbled as he thought nodding his head upon reaching his decision. It looked as though he was going into some type of trance, then his body began to emit amber glow.
'Okay that's weird.' Dom thought lifting an eyebrow. She glanced toward the door, and then back at Kurama, but the creature that now stood before her wasn't Kurama. At least not the one she knew.
The person that stood before her had long flowing, silken strands of sliver-white hair, and a pair of fox ears that stood on top of his head. The green eyes that Dom would lose herself in constantly were replaced with two striking golden ones. Even his clothes had changed. The person was dressed in a rather loose tunic that was white and he had a tail. He was extremely tall, and extremely handsome. She licked her lips.
'Dang, could Kurama be anything other then hot.' She thought to herself as she took in the sight of the impressive being that stood before her 'And the two of us are in a room… together. Alone, together, in a room, just the two of us…alone' Dom thought eyeing the man.
"Um… Kurama?" She bravely asked.
The being that stood before her looked down at her as if he hadn't known she was sitting there. It was that or he just didn't care to acknowledge her. He seemed to wrinkle his nose, in distaste either at her for speaking to him in such a way or her even just being there. He simply looked down at Dom, scrutinizing her, sizing her up. She started to feel uncomfortable under his gaze. She lowered her head, and rubbed her arm nervously. She could still feel his eyes bearing down on her, boring into her soul.
"I am Youko Kurama the legendary fox bandit, but if we are going to be informal, I suppose you can just call me Youko, Dominic." She gave a small gasp, which caused Youko to smile.
"How did you know my name? Are Aren't another freako stalker are you?" She looked Youko up and down before decided nothing that hot could be a stalker.
Youko shook his head. "I am Suichi's demon form. We may appear different though we share many thoughts though I already knew quite a bit about you."
Youko then smiled at her rather suggestively, which scared her but at the same time excited her. Dom couldn't tell if it was a good or bad thing that she was alone with him. But Kurama had assured her that she had nothing to worry about.
"What do you think you know about me?" She said confidently standing up, even knowing that she couldn't intimidate the rather intimidating and completely gorgeous creature before her. His devious smile seemed to widen.
Dom felt uncomfortable again, as Youko moved closer to her. She took a step back forgetting about the bed and fell backwards into the softness of the it. She looked up at Youko who was chuckling at her. It made her feel kind of angry but in the same respect it made her feel a lot less tense.
"Don't laugh at me." Dom commanded light heartedly standing up to playfully slap him on his muscular arm before losing her balance and slipping back on to the bed.
"Perhaps I should join you down there." He said with his head cocked to the side and his chin cupped in his hand. "She is a bit clumsy, but she'll do." The fox said out loud but to no one in particular
"Shut up." Amaya said laughing a little. Youko reached down his hand and pulled her up and into the warmth of his arms. As she was wrapped up in his embrace she felt herself being pressed into his chest. It felt so foreign, but so familiar.
"What are you doing?" She asked looking up trying to see Youko's face she could really only make out his strong jaw. She had to admit she didn't mind being trapped in his strong muscular arms.
"I'm just showing you what I know about you." Youko cooed "I know that when I do this." He leaned down and began kissing her neck. "It makes your heart race." Being helpless in his arms, Dom could feel that he wasn't lying. She felt his breath near her ear, and then heard his velveteen voice. "And when do this." He placed a feathery light kiss on her lips. "It makes your breath catch in your throat and your face glow."
He pulled back away from her face just to look at her in satisfaction of his handy work. Dom just stood there, trying to catch her breath slightly dumbfounded that the sexy stranger had taken such a liking to her. But it was obvious that Youko wasn't done with her.
"I also know that when I do this." He kissed her deeply and passionately this time. It felt as if he were trying to steal every bit of breath from her body. Then he pulled away, and Dom licked her lips and looked hungrily at his. "When I do that it makes you want more." Then his lips and hers locked together once again.
Dom felt her body giving into him as his hand slide under her shirt to caress the naked flesh of her stomach. She began to squirm under Youko's caress, trying to escape from him. Breaking the kiss again he looked down at her.
"If you are trying to get away there is no escape. But," He kissed her lightly yet forcefully. "I know that you don't want to get away." Once again he had her.
Youko suddenly pulled away from Dom and looked down at her, fondly stroking her cheek with his long fingers.
"It's been too long Amaya." Youko's salutary voice drifted into her ears. "We have some unfinished matter's to attend to, and I've been very patient." said Youko pushing her into the warmth of her bed, "But after so long patience does tend to wear a little thin." continued Youko still advancing on her.
"What the… What do you want with me?" Dom asked scooting away from him slowly.
"I'm just trying to make a good impression on you, so to speak." He with a small chuckle that made her want to melt.
She then felt her hands being held by his own. For a moment she forgot about escaping. Youko's form lowered it self so that his face was a breath away from her own. She gave a dreamy far off smile.
"Are you done trying to run away from me?" Youko asked.
She could feel his eyes staring down on her. That was enough to wake her from your dream world. She nodded then shook her head.
"Why are you still trying to run when you don't really want to?" asked Youko not giving Dom a chance to answer before pressing his lips to hers. It took all the will power she had but she didn't relent and give into the kiss. Even as Youko's tongue begged for refuge inside the warmth that lay beyond her lips. "You might enjoy this more, if you let yourself enjoy it." Youko sighed standing up tall.
"I can't…" Amaya said in a stern monotone voice, feeling relived that Youko stopped his pursuit. A bit more prodding and she would've given in.
"Some how I doubt that." said Youko with a raised eyebrow and a deep hint of skepticism in his voice.
"Wait." Dom said as if to stop Youko from leaving. Youko looked at her with eager eyes. "I... I don't even know you!" She told him, while asking herself what was the real reason she wouldn't give in to Youko. No reason came.
Youko gave a soft irritated groan. "You have known me for over 100 years, you're just stalling now."
Youko leaned in and nuzzled her neck, a motion that almost made her surrender herself to him right then and there. He kissed her lips lightly before she pushed him away.
"Honestly! Kurama was just there asking me....some thing...and then suddenly you were there. Not that I minded really I mean you both are really hot, but this is all kinda of confusing, not that I'm not already confused easily enough or any thing but…" Dom said quickly before Youko placed another kiss on her lips. She closed her eyes savoring every once of the bliss. Once he had pulled away she whispered. "You know you're really going to have to stop doing that."
Youko groaned walking to the other side of the room. "So you really don't remember?" He asked and Amaya softly shook her head 'no'. "Then I'm going to have to start from the beginning." Youko said.
"Beginning? Beginning of what?" Dom questioned.
"Of the story, the one my human side attempted to tell you, only this one will be in much more detail." The bandit informed.
He walked over to her and placed a rather large hand on the top of her head, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. 'Gosh his hands are big I wonder if the theory is true.' Dom thought. Youko opened one eye and smiled.
"It is." He replied. Dom blushed brightly while smiling secretly to herself. "Close your eyes." Youko commanded. She obeyed and as she did every thing went white.
