Lee: Aloha fans! I have a bone to pick with all of you!
Hiei: (Puts hand over Lee's mouth) Before she goes ranting she would appreciate more reviews.
Lee: Fine! He did it for me but honestly, I do not rant!
Hiei: Just write the chapter for which you lost much sleep.
Lee: I still got 9 hours I just stayed up till 3 in the morning. Do your thing first.
Hiei: Lee does not own any of the cast of YYH. Nor does she own Kira.
Lee: Thank you. Now on to the story!

'And to think that I woke up this morning half-way excited.' This was Kayli's thought as she lay there. She lay on her new bed at the Rekai palace, the bunk bed above her unoccupied for the moment. A large blue duffle bag lay on the bed beside her.
Her first month in Japan had seemed so long at first but as she looked back now, it seemed as if it had flown by. The first couple of weeks had been fun but this last week had been tense. Today itself…well… she didn't even want to think about how strange today had been. Falling back, she settled herself in to a meditative state. She supposed she should start at the beginning and try to figure everything out.

As she sat in her first class with Kira the first morning, she nearly gasped with surprise. There in the doorway was the boy from her dream field, the one her father had called the "Night One" or something to that effect. He was standing with a group of three other boys. Although shocked, Kayli had thought nothing of this. It could have just been a coincidence.
Kalyi had known that she shared all her classes with Kira. After all, since Kira was her Student Guide, this was no surprise. The only time Kayli was to be without Kira was at fencing practice, after school. At the end of the first day, however, Kayli felt as if she had another guide.
The boy, it seemed his name was Hiei Jaganshi, was in every class with Kayli. He even had fencing practice with her. His weapon of choice was a katana. He was fluid with it in the face of all the rapiers and sabers. At first, Kayli had been slightly disturbed by his sudden appearance, but after a while Kayli and Kira warmed up to him. They had become good friends and hung out with him and the others after school.
Kalyi smiled slightly as she thought about Hiei. She felt as if she knew him and yet another part of her told her that she had never seen him before. She had to admit that he was cute in his own way. And the way his red eyes met her mismatched ones….
At these thoughts, Kalyi nearly fell out of meditation. Smiling, she settled herself into calm again and thought about the past week. Hiei and Yusuke, his brown haired friend, had been strangely tense. When questioned they would shrug and try to act normal. Even so, they had continued to watch her closely.
This morning, Friday, had started out as a good day. Today was Kayli's 18th birthday. Things had gotten strange when Kayli began to remember strange things. Snatchets of memories came to her randomly during class. The odd thing was that these memories didn't seem to belong to her and yet…some part of her recognized them.
After practice that afternoon, Kayli had trotted outside, saber strapped to her belt. Walking across the courtyard, she slowed. She sensed something was wrong but had no idea what it was. Then, out of nowhere, a katana struck. ((A/N- It's not Hiei so don't go nuts on me.)) Kalyi flung herself sideways, but the blade clipped her shoulder.
After that, Kayli slipped into a semiconscious state. She remembered Hiei fighting someone and then kneeling over her. She blacked out completely when he picked her up. She had awoken here in this room. Hiei had given her the duffle bag with a few essential items and some clothes. Telling her to stay and sleep, he had left.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
That had been over 3 hours ago. Kayli had slept for a while and rebandaged the wound in her shoulder. Now she lay back on the black comforter. "Happy 18th Birthday." She said to herself. She closed her eyes. Suddenly she sat bolt upright. Memories and thoughts flooded her mind. Kayli let out a yell and clutched at her head. It was then that life flashed before her eyes.

Lee: There you go! Now I do expect some reviews for that.
Hiei: Stop yelling and write more for the nice people.
Lee: Okay if you stop scaring me, I'll stop yelling.
Hiei: Deal. R&R!
