Chapter Three
Mending Broken Fences
DISCLAIMER: GUESS YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW BUT I DON'T OWN ANYTHING IN THIS STORY EXCEPT FOR WHAT I MAKE THEM DO. I OWN RAIN, RUME, AND SHAKIRA.
"Uh, yeah, yeah sure." Shakira muttered. "Come in." Rume followed Shakira to the living area where Shakira said, "We have a visitor." The boys looked up at (they were sitting down) the duplicate of Rain. "Now wait a minute!!" snorted Yusuke. "That's Rain!!" Shakira started to speak but at that moment, Rain decided to come in.
The boys stared open-mouthed at the 'twins'. After a few awkward minutes of shifting and shuffling, Rain finally spoke up. "Hey!! Who's that?!?!?! She looks like me!!" Rume took this as the moment to introduce herself to the group other than the 'visitor'. She cleared her throat. "I'm Rume, and I'm looking for my sister. You mentioned her name earlier." "R-Rain?!?!?!?!?!" all the boys shouted. Kurama gathered himself and said, "Why don't you girls come sit over here. I suppose we could learn her story better that way." He gave a weak smile as the boys and Rain and Shakira looked at him like he was crazy.
But they knew that they all agreed with the red-head, and so they took a seat; Shakira by Kurama, Rume and Rain on the floor next to Yusuke in the recliner. Kuwabara was sitting in the 'love-seat'. :D "Hey!!" he yelled obnoxiously. "I thought this was supposed to be a LOVE-SEAT!!" "Hn. Tough luck." Hn-ed Rume. "Now, what's your story?" asked Yusuke. "Well, I was born in demon world. Or Makai, as you may know it. There was a terrible war going on at the time. Fire demons' and Ice demons' were separated in sort of a racial-like way. No one knew when the war was going to end.
Since most of the lesser demons and imps were sent to Spirit World because they could not protect themselves, almost all of the demons left were ice and fire youkais. But the demons that were not chose sides. One fateful morning, a last alliance of both sides went to war. Most fought to their death, others turned and fled for they knew that there would be no victor. The red sky rose the next morning, and the King of Spirit World looked down among all the broken bodies and torn carcasses. He thought he had lost all of Makai, when, in fact, he hadn't. Because the wimpy demons who fled the war fled, they started new families with other demons. These demons, scientifically classified as wimpy and unable, hated the war but were made to fight anyway. So they fled. Starting new families with other demons, they rebuilt Makai, and today it still stands. But because the King of Spirit World did not know of these insignificant others, he flamed his fury. The fury spread across the land of Makai and after the epidemic was over, he sent a disease, causing all the rest of the living youkais to perish." She cleared her throat. "Once again, some fled. But this time to the human world. That is how I ended up here. My mother brought me and my two sisters and brother to human world and died here. We were left alone until we got separated. How that happened, I don't know.
But we did get separated and now I'm looking for my sisters and brother. Their names are Rain and Shakira. I do not know my brother's name; he was older than all three of us. I thought perhaps they might be here. Can you help me?" She was wringing her hands at the end of her tale. Rain and Shakira stood up. "We're Rain and Shakira." Rain said sadly. "I knew I had another sister but gave up looking for her at age 12. I didn't know I had a brother." The door was pushed open and there in the doorway stood Hiei. He had tickets hanging out of his pockets and a prize in his hands. It was a small, lavender teddy bear. "Say Hiei, gone soft?" asked Yusuke.
"Last night." Hiei reminded him. Hiei noticed the three girls standing in the middle of the living room. His eyes fell on Rume. "R-R-Rume??" he whispered. Rume stared back at him. (Hiei's gonna get a little OOC right here so be prepeared) Walking over to the congregation, Hiei put down his prize and tickets. "Rume?" he said. "You know her?" yelled Kuwabara brashly. "You know all the pretty girls but you never go out with them? That's stupid you little spiky haired midget!!" "Hiei," Kurama said softly. "You know her?" Hiei gulped. "Y-yes. Rume is,.........well, she's my sister." Everyone gasped and looked at the two. "You four are family?!" yelled Yusuke. "Well!! This calls for a celebration!!!!!!!" Yusuke ran out the door yanking his coat on as he went.
The four teenagers embraced each other with a group hug, Hiei in the middle. He was laughing and giving Rain a noogie. The family's broken fences, had been mended. "Well, now that you look at them, they all sort of look alike." Chuckled Kurama.
R&R!!
Next time on Twisted Lives: Yusuke had left them but what for? He comes back with at least a dozen grocery bags and the party begins!!! The other girls come back from their vacation and party along too. But then, something horrible happens, and they must stop the party to look for the missing person.
