A/N: I am updating a bit sooner than I had planned. Actually, I didn't have a plan. Oh well. I am updating and that is what counts. If my explanations seem confusing, I am sorry. I will try my best to make it as simple as possible. Anyhow, thanks for reviewing and enjoy!

Kurama and the Amulet of Truth

Yoshimi and Kurama sat in chairs opposite Koenma's desk. Yoshimi tried to get as comfortable as possible on the hard chairs. She could tell that this was going to be a long talk.

"I told you that the amulet of truth makes it impossible to lie in its presence, but I was slightly incorrect," Koenma began. "It is possible to lie in the presence on the amulet, but the liar gets their soul absorbed by the amulet. This provides some power, but obviously there aren't enough powerful people to keep the amulet regularly supplied, so it sucks on the wearer's life force as well."

Yoshimi gasped. "So that is why my mother died so young!" she exclaimed. "Wait, will it kill me, too?"

Koenma took a deep breath. Bad news it coming, thought Yoshimi. "No," he said, and Yoshimi gave an audible sigh of relief. "Not if you don't wear it. I am surprised that we didn't think of this in the first place, but of course we didn't know the dangers of the amulet. So, it is imperative that you leave the amulet here Yoshimi. We can lock it up in a nice, safe vault and you will never have to worry about it again."

Yoshimi thought about this. Sure, her mother had asked her to protect it, but wouldn't it be a lot safer in Spirit World? And she could live a normal life and not have to worry about the amulet again!

"Okay," said Yoshimi. "You can keep it here. But take good care of it, okay?" She took of the amulet and handed it to Koenma.

"Of course," Koenma said, taking the amulet from Yoshimi. "We'll lock it up in the best security vault we have. Ogre!" he said yelling at George. "Lock this amulet up in the tightest security vault we have!"

"Yes, Koenma sir," said George, taking the amulet from Koenma and leaving the room.

"Well, since we have that over with, we come to another decision that we must make," Koenma said, settling down in his chair and folding his hands. "If you want to live a normal life, we have to wipe your mind. But, even though you only had it for a little while, the amulet will have lasting effects on your life. So I am giving you the choice. Do you want your mind wipe, or do you want to keep your memories? Remember, you will have to live with this decision forever."

The answer seemed obvious. Of course she wanted a normal life! She didn't want this demon business coming back to haunt her. She just wanted to be a normal girl.

But what about Kurama? Did she want all the time she spent with him to be in vain, forgotten by her forevermore? Or did she want to remember, seeking a prosperous life with him by her side? She glanced over a Kurama and saw him intensely looking at her. They both looked away, blushing.

"Yes," she said quietly. "I think I want to keep my memories."

Yoshimi and Kurama were at the cabin in the woods, preparing to leave it for the last time. Kurama was packing. Yoshimi, who hadn't brought any clothes, was waiting for him downstairs. I haven't had a shower in days! She thought to herself. The first thing I'm gonna go when I get home is take a nice long shower.

She was interrupted by the sound of Kurama lugging his suitcase down the steps. "Let me help you," Yoshimi said, running over to Kurama. Together they managed to lug the suit case down the stairs. Yoshimi straightened up and looked into Kurama's eyes. "I'm going to miss you, Kurama," she said, still staring into his eyes.

"I will miss you as well, Yoshimi," said Kurama staring back. They kept staring, moving closer until Kurama swept her into his arms, about to give the kiss of a lifetime when...

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! The communicator went off, interrupting the perfect moment. "What is it?!" Yoshimi said, sounding not a little annoyed. "It had better be important!"

"It is," said Koenma from the other side of the line. "Yoshimi, the amulet has been stolen!"

A/N: Hehehe how did you like this cliff hanger? I know the story was short, and I interrupted the perfect moment, but there will be a good kiss at the end. I promise. Now review!
