Hi-hi! This is Kritter. Thanks toall of my reviewers. Like I said, here's chapter 9 and it's March 26. Aren't I a good girl? Yes I am, yes I am! Alrighty, here's chapter 9: First Day Of School.


What a Weekend

Chapter 9

The next morning, Kurama woke Hiei up and got him ready for school before Shiori was awake. He was trying to avoid anymore ramen and sweet snow issues. Kurama left a note for his mother, saying:

"Dear Mother,

I have left early for school today to do some studying.

Love, Suichi."

Hiei was not fond of this idea, as he did not like wearing the color pink. "Why do boys at your school have to wear such a girly color?"

Kurama shrugged as they walked down the street. "Nobody knows."

Shaking his head, Hiei continued walking.Two boyspassed by them.

In one quick motion, Hiei pinnedone to the ground. "What's this about stealing souls?"

Kurama's eyes grew to the size of dinner plates, "Hiei!"

"He was saying that he wanted souls!"

The boy under him shifted, "Chill man. It's just a game."

Hiei grit his teeth, "A game?"

Kurama pulled Hiei off, "He's been watching old vampire movies again. Sorry."

"Freaks!" the boy shouted before running away, his friend in tow.

Then Kurama noticed something bad... the boys had the same school uniform as him... or Hiei... or whatever.

Kurama glancedat Hieiand began walking again, "Hiei, things here are differant here, than in the Makai."

Hiei looked at Kurama, "Hn."

Kurama looked back toward the boys, I hope he doesn't see Hiei, and cause a scene at school.


Yusuke sat on his couch, listening to Koenma on his communicator. Botan was hanging over his shoulder, also listening to what Koenma had to say.

"If Botan remembers anything, let me know. She probably saw something important if they went to the trouble of brainwashing her." Koenma continued.

Yusuke looked to Botan, but she only shook her head. Getting her to remember would be harder than he thought.


Kurama showed Hiei to the school, but knew he couldn't go inside. Hiei would just have to fend for himself, leaving Kurama to pray that Hiei didn't kill anyone.

Hiei entered the school and looked around. This schedule thing was not helpful, in the least. He stumbled in a little farther and looked around again, only this time he saw a large group of... girls? Coming right for him! His eyes almost jumped out of his head; did Kurama have to run from them everyday?

"Suichi! Oh, Suichi, we love you!"

He continued running away.

"Come back, Suichi!"

Where the hell is my first class... thing?

"Suichi!"

Hiei turned a corner sharply, losing most of the stalkers that were following him. Room 125. Where is 125? He looked back to see if any of them were still in persuit.

They were. "Suichi. Why are you running?"

Why shouldn't I? The chase continued.


Kurama sat in the park. It had been a while since he could do this. He was always, either saving the world, or going to school. This was... nice.

Small children played and laughed, while mothers sat on benches and talked.

With a happy sigh, Kurama continued walking. He idly wondered how Hiei was doing, but it was cut short when he saw Yusuke across the street. "Yusuke?"

He looked over and grinned, "Hey, Kurama."

Kurama crossed the street and began walking with Yusuke, "Any news?"

"No."

He sighed.

Yusuke looked around, "Where's Hiei?"

"At school."

"I can't believe you actually sent him there!" Yusuke exclaimed.

Kurama 'Ssh'ed him and leaned closer, "I had no choice."

There was a moment where neither of them spoke. It was awkward, or to Kurama, it was.

Yusuke turned the corner, with Kurama following him. "So..."

"Yeah. I suppose I should see if there's anything going on with the cat demons." Kurama smiled a little and turned away.

"Yeah..." Yusuke murmured absently.


Hiei went up the stairs and survayed the area.

"Can I help you, young man?" asked a teacher... or something like that.

Hiei stared at him, Young man? That's kind of amusing. "Can you tell me where room 125 is?"

"What teacher?"

Hiei looked at the paper in his hand. All it said was "Science: 125". Hiei met the man's gaze, "I don't know."

"Are you new?"

"... No."

The teacher stared at him, "... New schedule?"

"... You could say that."

"You seem familiar. Who's your homeroom?"

Hiei paused, "... I don't know."

"Are you sure you're not new?"

"YES." Hiei persisted.

The man grinned, "You're going to be late."

"I know." Hiei growled, "Do you know where room 125 is?"

His grin widened, but he didn't speak.

Hiei resisted striking him, and walked away.

The teacher guy grabbed his arm and didn't allow him to leave.

"Release me." Hiei demanded.

"I don't think so... Kurama."

Hiei's eyes widened, Kurama...


Oooh! Cliffy! Okay, please review!
