Chapter 4

"Kagome! Wake up!"

Kagome slowly opens her eyes, seeing a blurred shape hanging over her, "Wha…?"

Sango sighed, "Remember!? The in-ter-veew?"

It took Kagome a few moments to register what Sango was saying. Suddenly she remembered the events of the night before. She sat up straight, suddenly wide awake, "OOH! That interview!"

She hurriedly jumps out of bed and changes into a pair of baggy jeans and a white loose-fitting tee-shirt. She glances at Sango and notices that the exterminator was wearing her usual kimono. Kagome makes a 'tutting' sound and roots through her drawers. "Ahah!" She exclaims, proudly drawing out a long green skirt and a matching top. She tosses the clothes to Sango.

The exterminator catches the clothing and looks at Kagome puzzled, "Kagome?"

"You should wear some modern clothes, you're kimono will attract unwanted attention."

Understanding, Sango nods. She quickly changes outfits, folding her kimono neatly and setting it with her boomerang. Out of habit she keeps her exterminator outfit on underneath, the only indication of this was the small bit of black fabric that peeked out from her sleeves.

Kagome smiles, "Lets go…It's…um…" She checks the clock, "11:30…We have half an hour…That's plenty of time."

With those words Kagome heads out the door, out of habit she grabs the shikon shards from their place on the desk. Sango notes this and frowns but follows after her friend.

A certain red-head and a spiky haired fire demon descended the large stairs leading up to Genkai's shrine. Koenma had told Kurama that the people from the Institute would be arriving there. Kurama was puzzled at why they had chosen Genkai's shrine, but just shrugged it off. He glances at the fire demon, highly suspicious because he hadn't complained once today.

Kurama sighed as they topped the last flight of stairs, he was thinking once more about his mother.

"Hn…"

The red head glances at Hiei, noticing that something had caught his friend's attention. Kurama follows Hiei's gaze and his eyes widen. A large black shape sat on the lawn behind the temple. He could tell that it could not be seen by humans because it kept fading in and out of view, Kurama's youkai senses were the only thing allowing him to see it.

Hiei snorts in disdain as they reach the temple entrance, a withered old woman stood in the entrance, her almond shaped eyes narrowed as the approach. Her gaze flicked from one to the other before speaking in a raspy voice, "You're late."

Kurama bows, "I am dreadfully sorry Genkai, Hiei was being…uncooperative."

This remark caused Hiei to glare at Kurama. Genkai sighed, "Well since you got here, hurry up. The other two already arrived."

Hiei's brow raises, "Other two…?"

Genkai nods, "Yes, Two other girls had been sent a letter. And Fox, did Koenma give you instructions?"

Kurama shook his head, "No, he just told me to pretend to be human."

Genkai shook her head, "Just as I thought, well anyway. Niether of you can use your super speed or any other abilities, save one. Fox, you can use your control over plants, and the Possessed One can do fire. No others, got that?"

Kurama nods while Hiei replied, "Hn."

Genkai turns and walks into the temple, "Good. Follow me."

Kagome stood in a room in the interior of the temple. Sango stood near her, watching the two others in the room warily. Two adults stood in the room. One was a tall man with rough black hair. And the other was a woman with whitish grey. Her skin was a dark tan and they both spoke softly to each other in English. Kagome could recognize the language but could not understand anything more then one or two words from their conversation.

She looked up as the door to the room slid open. The old priestess who lived in the temple walked in, followed by two boys. One was a tall red-head, with hair so long he looked almost feminine. His emerald eyes shone from beneath his red bangs, though they seemed to be shadowed with grief. He was dressed in Chinese style clothing. Kagome stared at him a little longer before turning her gaze to the other. This one was much shorter then the first boy. His hair was black and spiked in a way that seemed to defy gravity. His face was set into an expression of cold indifference. The boy glared at everyone in the room in turn, his fiery red eyes making the two girls uncomfortable. He was dressed in a black outfit with a white headband tied around his head.

The man in the corner of the room cleared his throar, catching the attention of all in the room, "Now that you are all here…I'd like to begin."
