Day and Night in One: Solaris Moon's origins
--------------------------------------
Solaris: Part three! Yay!

Kurama sat with Solaris for a while longer until Hiei came and put a hand on his shoulder.
"She's asleep, you know. And her muse was telling the truth. She doesn't cry on cue." Hiei said. Kurama still didn't let go of her hand. "Kurama, Koenma is about to deliver a sentence. Now release her hand and let's go. Maybe you can help her out." Kurama unclenched his fingers and smoothed her hair. Then he followed Hiei.
"Now that you've joined us, I think I have a solution. Foxglove suggested it. Uh, what was it again, Foxglove?" Koenma asked. Kurama turned his attention to the foxgirl draped casually over a chair.
"We turn in the MAC, you put us under the supervision of the Reikai Tantei and let us have our own house." she said lazily.
"Yeah. It worked for me. Kurama, you can go let Solaris out." Koenma said as he handed Kurama the cell key. Hiei followed and, as soon as they were out of earshot, he turned to Kurama.
"She was putting on that act. She was sobbing in her cell before they called her. Before I got in the room, she was sitting straight up in her chair." Hiei growled.
"She has a crush on you." Kurama sighed. As his heels tapped the floor, Solaris awoke.
"What's going on? Is Foxglove okay?" Solaris asked, hands wrapped around the bars. Hiei almost exploded at that.
"What is WITH you? Stop worrying so much about her! She never asked if you were okay!" Hiei shouted.
"I can't help it. She's my muse, and a little...okay, a lot flighty. I have to worry about her or else no one will!" Solaris declared.
"You'll stress yourself to death, you know. Come on, Foxglove came up with a good solution." Kurama smiled at her.
Upon hearing Foxglove's idea, Solaris promptly hugged her muse, smiling. "Foxglove, that's a great idea!" she cried happily. Foxglove suddenly pushed her away, a strange look on her face.
"Don't do that. We aren't pups any more. You can stop patronizing me." Foxglove said snobbily. Solaris took a few steps back, wrists crossed over her heart and a betrayed look on her face.
"But...I thought..."
"I'm your muse, not your pup, thank God. So stop thinking of me as a child." Foxglove said stonily. Solaris gasped and backed up a few more steps, then turned and ran from the room. Just then Yusuke came back in.
"That is one volatile fox chick. I go to ask her what's wrong, she practically bites my head off just to tell me to shut up and leave her alone." he blinked.
"Muse, you have no heart! What could inspire you to be so cruel?" Hiei shouted.
"I was just distancing myself, like you would, Hiei-Sama." Foxglove said, head downcast.
"I don't do that to my friends! Not unless I have good reason!" Hiei shouted. As Kurama turned to leave, Hiei said, "Don't bother. She'll be back soon." Just then you could hear Solaris's voice approaching, and she sounded irate.
"Lemme go, you neanderthal! I'm older than you'll ever be! Let me go!" Solaris screamed as Kuwabara walked in, holding her up by a wrist.
"Didn't your mommy teach you not to run in the halls?" he chided.
"Let her go, you oaf!" Foxglove shouted as she jumped up to free Solaris. As soon as she had succeeded, she tried to hug her. "I am so sorry!" Solaris viciously shoved her away, glaring at her muse with tears of anger flowing.
"No, no more hugs. No more patronization. After all, I'm extending the same courtesy to you, my dear muse. Now let's get this over with. I want to see Joshi caught." she declared.
"Hold it! I just noticed something!" Kuwabara said. "Ever notice how the fox girls and the shrimp are the same height? How tall are you two?"
"Five feet three inches, if it matters. And that's not counting the ears." Foxglove answered. "That's a dumb question."
"Yes it was. Let's got capture us a thief!" Yusuke grinned.

Solaris: Yes, animosity between the muse and foxgirl. It was inevitable. Read and review!
