Disclaimer: MINE.

A/N: First AU fanfic that I've ever written. I was inspired by a picture, and if it happens to be yours, I really like it. Also, Yukina, Kurama and Hiei will be slightly OOC (out of character), but mostly Yukina will be. Now just shut up and read it.

Chapter One-New Guy

"Hey, did you hear about the new guy?"

Yusuke turned around slightly, then sighed. Turning back to his friends, he asked annoyed, "What's with the 'New Guy'? Any of you know?" His best friend, Kazuma Kuwabara shrugged. He turned to his other friend, Kurama Youko. Pushing up his hippie-like sunglasses, Kurama shrugged.

Kurama looked at Botan and Keiko, who also shook their heads. The lunch bell rang, and they all stood up.
As they walked back into the school cafeteria, Kurama and Yusuke got a lot of catcalls-mostly from girls, but some were from guys.

Kurama was wearing a pair of baggy blue jeans, but not to baggy. They were held up slightly with a belt. His shirt was long-sleeved and a dark turquoise color. He wore a pair of hippie like sunglasses that slipped down to his nose. His long shoulder length hair was hanging down at his shoulders, making him look slightly girly.

Yusuke was wearing a pair of tight fitting jeans, and a light green shirt. A blue and red jacket was over it. Yusukes hair wasn't slicked back, like most people were used to seeing. Kuwabara was wearing his school uniform for the day, as there school's drees-code let you choose if you wanted to wear the uniform, or not.

Keiko was wearing a long ankle length skirt, and a short sleeved shirt. Botan's outfit consisted of a long-sleeved button up blouse, and a short knee length school girl skirt. "I wonder if the new guys in any of our classes?" Botan asked cheerfully. Once again, Kurama shrugged. "Who knows"
he asked, as he walked into his room with his classmates. "All I know, is that I want to stop hearing about him."

The lesson went on smoothly, right up until one of counselers called the teacher out of the room. The room began to buzz with gossip about the new kid, such as he had been to a detention center for half his life. And he had been sent to every other school in the whole town twice, and been suspended both times,then expelled, and the only one he hadn't been to yet, was this one. He even heard he'd accidently killed someone in a fight at school, which Kurama found was absolutely horseshit, but Yusuke and Kuwabara seemed to beleive it.

The teacher walked back into the room, but this time he had someone with him. The guy was half his size, and probably three inches shorter than Keiko. Kurama figured he would probably reach up to his chest.

The kids eyes were slanted in a glare, and he looked like he didn't smile much. His hair was black, and also slanted backwards at what seemed an impossible level. His clothes were all black, except for his arm warmers, which were red.Under the warmers were black fingerless gloves. His eyes were the color of blood and wine, and were as hard as stone, and as sharp as a razor blade. His arms were hanging down at his sides, and his shirt read, "I killed the last person who laughed at me."

Kurama could only stare. He felt heat rise up to his face, and felt as if he were on fire. The teacher clapped his hands together, cleared his throat, and said, "Class, I would like you all to meet your new student. His name is Hiei Jaganshi."

Some muttered a few mere hellos, and some just stared. "You can sit right next to Mr. Youko, Hiei," he said, and pointed to the chair next to Kurama. 'Oh god...' he thought.

As he was walking down the aisle, someone whispered,"Look at his clothes...!" A giggle came out from someone nearby, and Kurama glanced at the seat next to him. "I bet he'll get suspended today!" another whispered.

Hiei stopped, and turned around. "You see this shirt?" he asked the whole class in a deep voice. It caused shivers to run up Kuramas back.
"This shirt isn't lying. I really did kill somebody who made fun of me."

Nobody said anything the rest of the lesson.

"So, that must be the new guy then, huh?" asked Yusuke as they were all walking home. "You know, I'd really like to fight him. He seems really strong," ventured Yusuke. But Keiko wouldn't hear of it. "No! Last time you did that, I didn't see you for a whole week"
"What...am I that hard to resist?" Keiko rolled her eys, and stalked off past him.

Kuwabara ran to keep up after Yusuke who had run off to catch her. Botan smiled, and followed. Kurama just kept walking. If he needed to, he'd catch up to them.

His thoughts were turned to Hiei. He seemed so angry...but then again, he would to, if someone had made fun of him. But on the other hand, he probably wouldn't have said what Hiei had...but, once again, it must've been hard to be passed from one school to the next, not being able to enter there.

He sighed. It was then that he noticed someone following him. Turning around, he pushed his sunglasses up to keep them from falling off. Behind him stood Hiei. With a girl next to him. But they were far enough away for Kurama to not hear what they were saying, but close enough for him to see them.

The girl next to him had long shoulder length icy blue hair. She was wearing a kind of kimono like dress, but it didn't have any flaps, like usual kimonos did.

Her eyes were hard to tell, but she was wearing a necklaces with a weird gem on it. She was smiling at Hiei, and he was gazing at the pavement in front of him. She seemed to be talking about something. Kurama turned back around, and started walking, but this time slower. He wanted Hiei to catch up with him.

But then what would he do? He didn't care. He hadn't thought that far yet. After a few seconds, he noticed that they weren't really getting any closer. So he stopped, and pretended to tie his shoes. After a few more seconds, he could hear the girl talking.

"...my teacher says I have very good healing skills, niisan! She even said that I could become a doctor, if I really wanted to. Isn't that great?" So they were related, huh? Hiei said something back, but he couldn't really tell what. "Hey, Hiei chan? Isn't that one of your friends?" she asked, and Kurama sezied up. What was he going to say?

They neared closer, and he heard him say "Yukina..." but it was to late. As Kurama stood up, the girl stepped in front of him, and said, "Hi, I'm Yukina Jaganshi. This is my brother, Hiei." Kurama smiled, and said, "Yes, I've met him before. He's in my class."

Yukinas' eyes lit up, and she started talking about medicines, and her classes, and Kurama chatted along happily. Glancing back at Hiei, he saw the kid give him a strange look. But Kurama didn't dwell on it for long, because Yukina started asking about himself.

"So, where do you live? We live on Kasamura Avenue," Yukina smiled warmly. Kurama blinked. "Hey-what house do you live in? Because I live on Kasamura Avenue, too"
Yukina gasped with excitement. "Really? We live in 250." Kuramas heart sped up. He lived a couple houses down! He told her so, and she smiled wider.

She asked a few more questions, like how old he was (15), if he had any brothers or sister(yes, one, her name was Shiori), and a bunch of other things. After a few moments of silence, Kurama heard voices. They sounded familar. Speeding up, he turned a croner, only to see Yusuke and Kuwabara fighting some other guys. They looked out numbered.

Two against ten, it looked like. But only eight were fighting them; the other two were holding Botana and Keiko. Yukina looked, and gasped quietly. "Oh no. Kurama, do you know these people?" she asked when he had turned back to face her. "Yeah, but I only know four. The two girls, and the two guys." he answered gruffly.

Hieis' expression turned from boredom, to shock, as he watched Kuramas' eyes glare at the other ten. "I've got to help them." he said.
Pulling out a red rubber band, he pulled his hair up into a pony tail, and took off his sunglasses. Hiei got a look at his face fully for the first time, and was surprised. His eyes were strikingly emerald green, and without his hair down and sunglasses, he looked like a girl in boys clothes.

"Here, hold these, would you?" he asked quietly, and gave Yukina his sunglasses. She nodded, and Hiei stepped forward as Kurama left around the corner. Hiei looked around the corner, and saw Kurama run up to Yusuke and Kuwabara. "Hey, who said you could start without me?" he yelled.

The other two boys laughed, and the two girls rolled their eyes. "Sorry, fox-boy, but we couldn't wait! They jumped us!" shouted Yusuke, calling Kurama by his nickname. 'Fox-boy?' thought Hiei cockily. "Hey, have you forgotten about us?" asked one of the fighters, most likely the leader, angrily. Kurama turned to him, looking him up and down. Finally, he said, "Who could forget somebody as ugly as you?"

The leader growled. "You'll pay for that!" he shouted, and all eight of the fighters charged towards them. Hiei expected them to be dead, but instead, all three of them jumped high into the air, and kicked the leaders face. He fell backwards. Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama smiled at each other. But the victory was short lived, as one of the fighters punched Kuwabara in the stomach. Kurama flicked his hair, and smiled seductively at the other fighters, and said innocently, "Oops, I almost forgot to tip!"

And with that, Kurama kicked the guy in stomach, punching another one in the face at the same time. Yusuke dropped down to the ground, and kicked anothers legs out from under them.

Yusuke turned, and suddenly yelled, "Kurama! Look out!" Kurama looked behind him, and saw one of the fighters hands raised, getting ready to slam them down on his neck. But Kurama was to quick. He did a backflip, connecting his feet with the guys neck, touched the ground with his hands, and kicked the guy into last remaining two, who had been holding Keiko and Botan. The girls ducked just in time.

Yusuke and Kurama looked around. "Hmm...you know, Kuwabara," grunted Yusuke, as he pulled him out of a dogpile of fighters, "You really need to learn to fight better."

"Oh, shut up, Urameshi! I, Kazuma Kuwabara, would have-" Yusuke elbowed him in the stomach harshly, and Kuwabara doubled over, wheezing in pain. "Yeah, yeah, we're all sure you could've." Yusuke mumbled, and walked away from him towards Keiko. "Oh, hey, Kurama. Where were you? You sure took your time getting here." asked Botan.

"Oh...um, hold on..." he said, and hurried back to where Yukina nd Hiei was. "Thanks, Yukina. Come on, I'll introduce you both to my friends. Just...uh...don't let anything Yusuke and Kuwabara say get to you..." he said, glancing at Hiei.

A/N:So...not much of a clifhanger, huh? But don't worry. The next chapter will be much better, I know it! Thanks, and uh...review!
