Hiei6: it's been awhile since I last updated wild wind so I thought I'd start now ^_^

Yusuke: no kidding...by the way, has anyone seen Jin?

Hiei6: *blink* Yusuke he right next to you...

Jin: Hey Urameshi!

Yusuke: hey Jin!

Hiei6: yes, yes. We solved the great mystery of the missing Jin. IN OTHER NEWS, I've now decided to take a little break in writing my other fan fic "Love sickness" k?

Hiei: oh joy...we now get to deal with another idiot

Hiei6: hey! You be nice to Jin! Anywho, enjoy the fic!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

It had been three days since Yusuke and his friends had arrived. Kanesa liked Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiei but she didn't like Kuwabara a whole lot because he'd always hold her hands and try to flirt with her. But the end result was Touya, Shishi, or Yusuke who whapped him upside the head. But Kanesa was still nice to Kuwabara.

The whole gang was sitting around the 'eating' table after a day of training and they were waiting for dinner. Unfortunately, Kuwabara and Chu were making it. When they delivered the food, the only thing on everybody's plate was a pile of green mush with a few tentacles sticking out of it.

Yusuke pointed the so called food with his chopsticks and Rinku's and Shishi's food had managed to wrap around their chopsticks and was trying to pull them in.

"Are you even sure this stuff is edible?" asked Yusuke as he continued to poke his food.

"I think I saw mine twitch..." said Kanesa. Kuwabara ran up to Yusuke.

"Oh course it's edible Urameshi!" he cheered. One of the tentacles then wrapped itself around Yusuke's chopsticks but Kuwabara picked up a large spoon and whacked it. It twitched a few times but then fell limp; probably dead.

"There is no way in the seven hells that we are going to eat this crap!" yelled Yusuke. Kanesa then stood up.

"May I be of some help? I don't think I'm a very good cook but I could try," she stated. Shishi thought it was a good time to make his move.

"Oh course Kanesa. And I will help myself to help you!" he cheered as he walked up to Kanesa. She smiled at him.

"Thank you Shishi but don't think I require any assistance," said Kanesa. Shishi watched as Kuwabara and Yusuke mouthed "loser." Kanesa then walked out the door and into the kitchen to make them a REAL dinner.

~* Cut *~

hiei6: what now Kuwabara -_-* I told you that if I gave you a dollar that you wouldn't talk

Kuwabara: you said that I was a bad cook! I take that as a bad insult

Hiei6: then what's a good insult

Kuwabara: don't act smart with me; I cooked a pretty good meal once, right urameshi?!

Yusuke: yeah, right. I'm still waiting for it to digest.

Hiei6: ANYWAY!!! Lets get back to the fic...

~* End Cut *~

"There! Done!" cheered Kanesa. Kanesa had a beautiful display of lobster, shrimp, fish, tofu, fried rice, sushi, ramen, hot pot, etc. The boys stared at the food before them and Chu and Rinku were drooling. The boys then dug in. Several pieces of food were sent flying through the air while the boys were eating. Kurama and Kanesa sweat dropped as they were the only ones not in the stampede. They did have SOME food with them.

Kanesa reached for some of the meat in the pot but when her chopsticks grabbed it, so did Kurama's. They looked up at each other and blushed a little. Kanesa then broke the uncomfortable silence.

"Um...you can have the meat Kurama...um...I don't mind," Kanesa said as she blushed a little more. Kurama started at Kanesa for a moment but then gratefully took the meat and ate it.

"So Kanesa," Kurama said when he was finished, "how do you think of the training so far?"

"Oh, I think it's amazing!" Kanesa beamed, "I think it's fascinating to watch you guys practice. But I don't see a whole lot because I'm always running in and out of the house." Kanesa and Kurama continued their conversation and found out that they had a lot in common. Both of their favorite classes were biology and they both had an interest in flowers. But what Kanesa didn't know was that Kurama used to be the great thief Youko Kurama. She thought it sounded very interesting.

Once all the boys had their full of food (not like there was any LEFT mind ya...), they all decided to go to bed. Except for Kanesa. She was outside in the garden; drawing. Kanesa sat cris-crossed on a rock in front of a large lake; perfect for swimming in. She never actually decided what to draw; she just drew whatever popped in her head. She'd usually draw random people or objects; nothing special.

Kanesa then heard something in the bushes and she tensed up. She calmed down when she saw that it was only Kurama. She continued drawing; not looking up at Kurama, as he spoke.

"Kanesa, what are you doing out so late?" he asked as he sat down next to her. There was short pause.

"I'm just drawing. I do it all the time but I don't think I'm good at it," she said; concentrated on her drawing. Kurama looked over her shoulder and was shocked. The picture was a collage of Yusuke, Hiei, Jin, Touya, and Shishi. Yusuke was in the middle powering his spirit gun up. Next to him was Jin on his right and Touya on his left. Jin had a smile on his face with one tornado fist on one arm and Touya had his ice sword on one arm and his shards of winter on his other hand. Hiei was next to Touya with his dragon tattoo showing and his sword unsheathed. Shishi was next to Jin and he had his cape of no return with him and his sword partly sheathed. It was actually quite an impressive sight.

"Here, you decide if it's good or not, I'm making a collage of the rest of you guys too," Kanesa said as she handed her sketchbook to Kurama. He gladly took it for a better look.

After Kurama was done looking over it, he gave it back to Kanesa.

"I think it is very well done Kanesa! I was very impressed," he answered. Kanesa bowed her head.

"You're just saying that..." she said. Kurama sighed.

"No I'm not. I think you are a very good artist," he complemented as he tilted her head up with his index finger, "don't let anyone else say otherwise." Kanesa couldn't believe it. That was the nicest thing anyone had ever said to her. Kanesa had a little smile on her face again.

"Thank you Kurama. I appreciate it," she said. Kanesa then got up and started for the house on cloud nine. Back with Kurama, he had also gone back to his room and was already in bed. But he was having a conversation with himself.

/Suichi...\ said a deep voice in his head.

'What is it Youko...?' Kurama answered.

/That girl....who is she...\ it almost sounded like Youko was threatening to know.

'Her name is Kanesa. Why do you wish to know?' Kurama answered. Kurama could almost –hear- Youko smirk.

/Oh, no reason but....you like her don't you...\ Youko snickered. Kurama sighed.

'No Youko. She is a nice girl but I don't like her *that* way' he answered.

/Good. Because I like her. She's a perfect little vixen.\ Youko smirked. Kurama sat up in his bed from what Youko said.

"Youko!" he said out loud; but not enough to wake anyone.

/What's wrong Suichi? Are you...jealous? / Youko mocked. Kurama then lied back down and tried to ignore Youko the rest of the night.

~* the next morning *~

Kanesa woke to the sound of shouting. Loud shouting. VERY loud.

"Kuwabara you bastard! How DARE you eat the last muffin!" screeched Yusuke from down the hall. Still in her pajamas, Kanesa sleepily walked down the hallway. Once she came into the kitchen, all the boys were crowded around the door; yelling at each other.

"Well EXCUSE ME Urameshi! All I did was eat the last muffin and you start biting my head off!" Kuwabara yelled back.

"Hello?! The last muffin was for KANESA you baka!" yelled Touya. It seemed that Yusuke, Kuwabara, Touya, Chu, Shishi, and Rinku were the ones arguing and Jin and Kurama were the ones trying to break it up.

"Now, now lads," said Jin, "lets not getting into a squabble 'bout somethin' like this!" Kurama sighed. Meanwhile, Hiei just watched. Kanesa couldn't take their yelling anymore. Her hands clutched the sides of her head and she bit her lip.

"Stop yelling," Kanesa barely whispered. The boys didn't even notice her as they continued arguing.

"Please, stop yelling," Kanesa said a little louder. They still didn't respond. Kanesa was then on her knees; holding her head even more. Hiei then took notice and rushed over to her. He then noticed why she was doing that.

"You idiots! Incase your dumber than I thought, Kanesa has been sitting here for the past five minutes while you were yelling!" The yelling immediately stopped. The eight boys looked over at the now shaking Kanesa; shocked. Kurama and Touya were the first ones next to Kanesa.

"Kanesa, are you alright!" they both said. Shishi then had a smirk on his face. He walked over to Kanesa and wrapped his arms around her and tried to calm her down.

"It's alright Kanesa, it's alright," he whispered. He then looked up at Kurama and Touya who both had scowls on their faces. He then stuck his tongue out at them but then turned his attention back to Kanesa.

"Thanks Shishi," said Kanesa as she got up with Shishi's help, "you guys should start training anyway." Kanesa then had a warm smile on her face again as she walked down the hallway to get dressed.

Shishi turned to the others; who all had scowls on there faces, and marched down the hall as if he owned the place.

Kanesa however was failing to hurry up and get clothes. Her hands were shaky as she reached for the closet doors and opened them. 'Their voices are still ringing in my head' thought Kanesa as she went to get a pair of pants. 'What is wrong onna...' said a voice in her head. Kanesa turned around to see Hiei leaning on the doorframe.

"Hiei," Kanesa paused, "it is nothing." She then turned around but stopped when she heard Hiei's voice in the open.

"There's something wrong onna....my jagan never lies," he said as something glowed under his bandana. Kanesa sighed.

"Really Hiei, there is nothing wrong," she replied, "but thank you for worrying." Kanesa didn't notice the slight tinge of pink on Hiei's face. He then 'hn'ed and blurred out of the door.

Kanesa finally came down to the other guys with an arm load of weapons. She gave them to each boy and when she came to Shishi to give him his sword, he winked at her. She then turned three shades of red but hurried on past him so he wouldn't notice. She came to Touya last.

"Kanesa, I'm really sorry –"Touya began before Kanesa put her index finger on his lips.

"No, its okay Touya, it wasn't your fault anyway," she said as she gave him a water bottle, "you'll need that for later." Kanesa was then walking to the porch when she noticed a basket of arrows and a bow were laying on the ground. She curiously walked over to them and picked them up.

"Hey Kanesa! What'cha got there?" Jin yelled. Kanesa turned to look at Jin who had taken a break.

"Looks like a bow and arrow," she replied. The rest of them stopped what they were doing to look at the conversation.

"Why don't you try'em out Kanesa?" Chu stated. Kanesa looked at the bow and then back at Chu.

"Are ya sure? I don't think it would work," Kanesa replied. She then felt someone pushing her back so she was slowly walking towards a target. It was Jin.

"Now, now lass, why don't'cha just TRY it and see what happens," he said as he stopped a good distance from the target.

"Um...okay..." Kanesa weakly answered as she took out an arrow from the basket over her shoulder and readied it in the arrow. She carefully aimed the arrow at the target. Kanesa then let it go. It went soaring through the air at a great speed towards the target but only got the very edge of it.

"Cool, you hit it," Yusuke said to no one in particular. But Kanesa was still disappointed. She readied another arrow in the bow and shot it as well as she could. Her aim was true. The arrow hit dead center in the target. The others gasped.

"Wow Kanesa! You did better than I thought!" cheered Chu. Kanesa started beaming.

"Alright! I did it!" she cheered as she waved the bow around. Touya then started walking towards Kanesa.

"It's great that you hit the target, but try doing that again and again," he stated. Kanesa nodded as the other boys went back to their training; glancing ever now and then. Kanesa then tried to shoot the arrow but Jin noticed that she was doing it wrong. He then walked towards her.

"Your doin' it wrong lass, here, let me show you," he said. Jin walked up behind Kanesa and positioned his hand on hers. Kanesa could feel Jin soft but warm breath on the back of her neck. She shivered in response. Jin noticed.

"Ya cold Kanesa?" he asked as he back away a bit so Kanesa could shoot.

"No, its okay!" Kanesa said as she went back to aiming. Jin stood there as he watched Kanesa practice. It wasn't until then till he noticed how pretty she was. Very pretty. Her skin bounced against her black hair, showing off her midnight blue eyes. Her hair was also very long; down past her butt. 'I wonder how she can handle all that hair' Jin thought as he continued to watch Kanesa. She didn't notice though.

~* Sunset *~

Kanesa had become a pro at shooting her bow and arrow. The other boys even allowed her to join them. What she did was the boys would run around the large yard and Kanesa would try to hit them with her arrows; with the sharp point dull so it wouldn't really hurt them, just sting them. They would of course try to block it. She had managed to hit Kuwabara quite a few times. For Yusuke, she hit him about five times. Touya; four. Jin; three. Hiei; zero. Shishi; three. And Chu and Rinku; both five.

An unanticipated had then arrived at the house. Kanesa and the others didn't notice. They were to busy dodging Kanesa's shots. Yusuke narrowly missed one.

"Man Kanesa! Would you give us even just a LITTLE break?!" Yusuke asked as he continued to dodge the furry of arrows.

"And spoil all of my fun? Heck no!" she replied. An unknown voice was then heard on the porch.

"Yusuke, I assume your training is going well," it said. Kanesa was startled by the newcomer and immediately shot an arrow at him. He quickly got out of the way.

"Are you crazy! Trying to kill the one and only Koenma?!" he shouted. Kanesa could then she the man more clearly. He was a very handsome teenager, but Kanesa could tell that he was much older. Yusuke and the others walked up behind Kanesa.

"Sorry about that lad. Kanesa here didn't know who you were," Jin said as he put his hand on Kanesa's shoulder. A shot of jealously went up Kurama's spine as he watched as Jin scooted closer to Kanesa. Koenma then straightened up.

"Ah yes, that's why I'm here. Yusuke, the reason I came was to...um...you guys better come in with me and sit down," Koenma said as he walked into the house. Shishi, Touya, Jin, and surprisingly Kurama, all rushed into the house just to sit next to Kanesa. Touya had managed to sit on Kanesa's left and Kurama on her right. The rest of the guys found there own spots.

"Now then," began Koenma, "the reason why I am here is about Kanesa." That caught everyone's attention. Jin glanced at Kanesa and then back at Koenma. "I can not tell you the reason, but Shishiwakamaru, Touya, Jin, Kurama, and Hiei will stay here and protect Kanesa while the rest of you must leave," Koenma stated."

"Why do we have'ta leave?" asked Kuwabara. Koenma stood up and started for the door.

"I already told you Kuwabara, its classified," and with that Koenma left.

About an hour later when the stars were finally out, Yusuke, Chu, Rinku, and Kuwabara had packed their bags and started to leave.

"Bye guys, I hope I'll see you again!" yelled Kanesa as they left.

"Bye Kanesa!" Kuwabara, Chu, and Rinku yelled. Yusuke just lifted his arm gesturing a good-bye.

Once they were finally out of sight, Kanesa finally realized how tired she was. Her legs and especially her arms were sore from practicing. She felt weak in the knees and started to fall until she felt someone catch her. It was Kurama.

"Thank you Kurama," Kanesa said sleepily. Kurama lifted her back up as he noticed her yawn.

"Tired, right?" Kurama chuckled. Kanesa tiredly nodded.

"Could you lead me back to bed Kurama? I'm too tired," Kanesa said. A flash of gold could be seen in Kurama's eyes as he said "yes." Kurama carefully lead Kanesa back to her room. Touya hid his scowl with a weak smile as he headed for bed. Shishi, Jin, and Hiei followed.

About halfway to Kanesa's room, Kurama had an idea. He picked Kanesa up bridal-style and walked a little faster. He noticed how much Kanesa was blushing but pretended he didn't. He was kind of amazed how light she was. Kanesa interrupted his train of thought.

"K...Kurama? You didn't have to do that," she said as her blush grew. Kurama smiled innocently down at her.

"No, its okay. We'll go faster this way," he said. Sleep then started to take over Kanesa as the scent of roses and cinnamon filled her nose. She then cuddled against Kurama's chest and fell asleep.

Once Kurama had finally reached Kanesa's room, he looked down at her to see that she was asleep. He chuckled at the sight and gently set Kanesa in her bed. He kissed her cheek and stroked her hair. His eyes then turned gold but the rest of his features stayed the same.

"Don't worry my little vixen," he said in a velvety voice next to her ear, "tomorrow will be very busy so get your sleep." Kurama's eyes then turned emerald again and he walked out the door; planning an evil thought in his head.
