(Prelude)
This story is about the first time Kurama and Hiei met. Except in this one Kurama has a younger half sister, she only looks 14. The bad thing.. She was his half sister in his life as Yoko too. Her name is Kitty and she has the personality to match her name. She's sassy, bold, and loves to fight. She has a best friend called Alaira. Alaira is a bit of a mystery, but it's no secret of her crush on Kurama.

" Kurama, Kurama are you ready yet? I'm really tired of waiting on you!" yelled an impatient Kitty up the stairs.
" Don't loose your tail there Kitty! I'm almost ready just let me get my shoes on!" yelled Kurama back in a laughing voice.
" Ugh..the nerve of that boy! He takes everything as a joke with family but with friends he's as serious as can be! If he doesn't hurry we'll be late picking up Alaira!" Kitty murmured to herself.
" Ok. I'm here. Now we can go. Geez Kitty, you're too impatient for your own good. It's gonna get you into trouble someday." lectured Kurama.
" Just shut up and let's go!! We're already late!" said Kitty in a huff as she ran out the door.
" Mom we'll be back in time for dinner ok?!" Kurama yelled to his mom before running out after Kitty.
Kurama finally caught up with Kitty two blocks from their house. She had stopped to wait on him. She stood beneath the street sign tapping her foot impatiently.
" Took ya long enough. What were you doing? Eating a sandwich?" Kitty quipped when Kurama came running up.
" I was saying good bye to Mother and telling her what time we would be home. She worries about you Kitty. You come and go as you please without so much as a hey or bye. Your should be more considerate of Mother's feelings. You know she just got over the flu." Kurama lectured as he tried to keep up with Kitty's swift pace.
" Listen Kurama. I'm not the good little child you are. According to you most of my friends are dope and heroine addicts. They are not though, mind you. We're just different and rebellious. Is that a problem? Mr. Smarty Pants?" Kitty answered in an annoyed voice.
"No it's not. I just hope you know what you're getting into hanging out with those gangbangers." Kurama answered solemnly.
" My friends are not 'gangbangers' as you so dub them. I don't have time to explain to a pretty boy like you. We're here at Alaira's. Don't say anything to offend Fang or Dutch. They're her friends too." Kitty responded.
Kurama just shook his head ok and left her alone.
Kitty and Kurama walk up to a battered green, steel door with the numbers 798 engraved into the surface. Kitty calls through the keyhole " Rose Hottie" and the door opens to reveal a drab living room with shabby red carpet and sagging red furniture. A lone wooden desk stands at the end of the room covered in sketches and doodles. A young teenager steps from out behind the door. The teenager is dressed in short denim shorts with a red halter top with roses surrounding a skull and crossbones on it. Her shoes are sling-back heeled black sandals.
" Hey Alaira!!" Kitty says cheerfully, " Sorry we're late but Kurama had to take forever getting ready."
Alaira looks from her to Kurama and says " That's ok. I only just got ready myself."
" Ok. Let's go to the mall and then go eat. Does that sound ok to every body?"Kitty announces.
" Yea. That's fine with me." says Alaira through a huge wad of bubblegum.
" Yes that seems like a pleasant idea." Kurama agrees.
The trio walks out of the apartment building and towards the local mall where they often hung out and shopped. They were about three blocks from the mall when Kurama suddenly stopped and looked around.
" Hey what's the hold up bro?" Kitty asked.
" Kitty, does it seem like someone is following us to you?" Kurama asked with wonderment.
" Uhh... now that you mention it I have been getting the feeling that we're being watched." Kitty answered back.
" I thought so. But whatever it was seems to be gone now. But be on your guard. I don't like this at all." Kurama said looking around uneasy.
The girls looked around too, but saw nothing. They walked on into the mall and the girls attack the sales rack at Sharuto's, the store for people who love short clothes. While the girls loaded up on clothes and shoes Kurama went next door and looked at the new shipment the bookstore had gotten in. He was absorbed in a book on the art of Santoryu (three sword style) when the girls came up and asked him to help carry their shopping bags. He humbly agreed and took half the baggage himself.
" Do you girls think that you're going to ever wear this stuff?" Kurama asked.
" Hmmm... good question Kurama. I think that the answer would be..... Help me here Alaira." Kitty said.
" Umm... The answer would be... Yea!!" the girls said in unison.
" Good grief... what have I gotten myself mixed up in?" Kurama said to himself.
The girls just giggled and walked towards the smoothie shop and sat down in a booth waiting for Kurama to catch up. They each ordered a Blackberry Storm smoothie and started talking about school and things.
After they had gotten their smoothies they noticed that a black haired teenager was staring at them from the table across from them.
" Hey Kurama," Kitty whispered, " Do you see that blacked haired guy. He seems to be staring at us."
" Yea. I can feel his spirit energy. He seems to be a demon, a fire apparition." Kurama replied in the same low whisper.
" What are you two whispering about?" Alaira asked, " Hey Kitty, that guy over there seems to be staring at you. Must have good taste."
Kitty looks at Alaira and shakes her head she then whispers to Kurama " Do you think that he can feel my demon spirit energy? You know that I'm an ice apparition and fire apparitions are sensitive to an ice's spirit energy."
" Kitty I'm not sure. But to play it safe I want us to go home and see if he follows us." Kurama whispered back nervously. " The aura of that guy is making me nervous."
" Alaira it's time to go. Kurama and I promised Mom that we'd be back by dinner. We're a bit late. We'll walk you home." Kitty said to Alaira as she pulled her out of the mall.
" But we were having fun!" Alaira protested.
" Alaira, please listen we really need to go home." said Kurama in response to Alaira's protest.
" Ok Kurama if you say so." Alaira answered back.
They dropped Alaira off at her house and headed home slowly.
" Kurama, what will you do if he shows?" Kitty asked at a whisper. They were walking down a deserted street in the dark. Not a very good place to be in Tokyo.
" I don't know Kitty. I'll find out when he shows." Kurama answered back in a whisper.
All of a sudden a deep voice calls out from behind them, " Hey you there ice demon. Wait up."
Kurama and Kitty freeze in their tracks and turn around. Standing in the light of one of the many street lights is a boy of about 15 he is wearing all black and has spiky black hair with white highlights in the front.
" You must be Yoko." the boy stated as he walked up to Kurama. " My name is Hiei. I have been looking for you."
Why have you been looking for me, Hiei?" Kurama asked quietly.
" I have heard about how you were a master thief in your demon form. I ask of your assistance in a crime I plan on carrying out. The ice demon can help too if she wishes."
" The ice demon you speak of is my sister Kitty. And what do you mean by crime you plan to commit?" Kurama asks again as he steps toward Hiei.
Hiei laughs and says " Have you heard of the three items King Yema has in a vault in his palace in Spirit World?"
Kurama gasps and says hurriedly " You do not mean the Orb of Baast, the Forlorn Hope, and the Shadow Sword?"
" Those very items." Hiei answers coldly " I plan to steal them and you to help me.
" And if I refuse?" Kurama asks.
" I doubt you'll refuse if your sister's life is at stake on it." Hiei grinned.
Hiei jumped over Kurama and grabbed Kitty around the neck. " I will keep your sister with me until you come to your senses. Meet me at the park around this time three days from now. That should give you enough time to clear your head." Hiei then disappears into the night.
Kurama looks on stunned at what just happened. He tries to follow them but he heard no footsteps in the night. His only alternative was to go home and ponder at what had just happened. When Kurama arrived home he sensed that something was terribly wrong. His mother did not answer when he yelled that he was home. He quickly ran up to her room and found her lying on the floor. She seemed to have fainted and collapsed. He called an ambulance and rode with her to the hospital. So many things were swirling around in his head, Hiei, his sister, his mother, and his choice. He then suddenly had made up his mind what to do.
