Renard: -yawns- Wow….Authors notes can be pretty boring some times…I've decided that hiding from Yusuke is useless since he's my son…so lets just sit and watch the clock tick

Renard: ok ok, you can read now
She walked down the street, still practically holding her breath from the visit with Koenma. With my luck there was poison gas in that office. She thought bitterly. Some one was closing in on her. I hope they did not pick Yusuke for my body guard, he would never come out alive… She thought as Yusuke came within touching distance.

"Hello Yusuke." She greeted darkly, never turning around to face him. He stopped for a moment, confused. He had stayed an arms length away from her and she still…he shrugged the meaningless mystery off and moved up beside her. "Yusuke, if they have sent you to make sure I will not run away again, rest assured I no longer have such a move in mind. I have been given a task and even though it goes against everything I have been taught, I shall carry it out because it's the punishment for the crime."

"You take this punishment stuff pretty seriously don't you?" Yusuke remarked, receiving a brimmed glare as an answer.

"I do not need four pompous magicians keeping track of me. I can keep track of myself, so if you would go waste your time some where else." With her completed statement she picked up the walking pace. Yusuke had a delayed reaction, but was back by her side in milliseconds.

"Hey, what do you mean magicians? Don't you have some special ability too?" He asked defensively. Riena shrugged.

"I might. If I did I would not know it." Yusuke raised an eyebrow.

"How do you not know?" Riena rolled her eyes, quickly growing bored with Yusuke. I would hate to have to commit the murder of my comrade-by-force in the middle of the street in broad daylight…

"We were taught to forget any abilities we might be tempted to use. The rule was murder by human means. It was all part of teaching them to fear themselves. It has been so long now…" she stared off into the distance. "I have forgotten by now." There was a long pause, when Yusuke didn't know what to say, and Riena didn't know how to keep him from speaking.

"Teacher's aren't always right ya know." Yusuke tried.

"How could you know? You have walked out of that school more times then you have ever entered." She accused, sending a quick side glance his way. Yusuke took a moment to think.

"How is that possible?"

"It's metaphoric; I am not surprised you do not get it." She stated plainly, no particular expression in her voice.

"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" Riena simply shook her head, and pulled a key out from under a matt. The door to her apartment clicked open. She walked into the hall, and put an arm across the doorway to prevent Yusuke's entrance.

"Go home Yusuke. I will meet up with you and the others soon." She instructed, a threatening look on her face. Yusuke simply stood there.

"Well, are you going to leave?" She prodded expectantly.

"Hadn't planed on it."

"Well, make it a plan." Yusuke continued to stand there, and finally, defeated, Riena let her hand down and moved towards her room. Yusuke walked about ten feet into her living room, which consisted of a couch and a book case which spanned an entire wall and was jam packed with books.

Riena silently closed her bedroom door, and began the routine process of changing her clothes.

"Your job will be to find Amon."

She pulled a white skirt from her closet.

"I can not do this for you Koenma. Though I have refused to show this in the past, my loyalty is to him, and treason is the ultimate crime."

"Hey, I thought you said failure was." Kuwabara mentioned, a confused look on his face. I rolled my eyes.

A loose fitting white button up from the top shelf.

"I have done many things, but this I simply can not do."

"I'm sorry but you have to." Koenma said frankly, shuffling a stack of papers.

Hat off.

"He is asking me to kill the man who saved my life."

"He's also the man who tried to kill you." Hiei reminded me harshly.

"I deserved it then."

She delicately picked up a white hat in the same style as the black, and carefully put it on as if it would shatter.

"But he does not deserve to die at the hands of an incapable girl to whom he dedicated his time energy and dream."

"Ok, so, lead us to this guy and we'll kill him for you." Yusuke suggested, his famous cocky grin in place.

"You bastard…"

She sighed, and took a look at herself in the mirror. Braided hair and dressed all in white, for the first time since the night she fled, she felt like herself.

White.

I know I'm fighting for the other side now.

Renard: Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell…Riena's gonna gun down her old master…things are heating up!

Yusuke: …no

Renard: -blows raspberry- please review!
