Koei: Next chapter ready to be typed. Thanks animegurl5 for excepting to be my beta reader! And thank you reviewers! I started writing right away after I saw all the wonderful reviews! .:Crappy music plays:. Ahem, anyways, I hope this chappie was uploaded fast enough! Kay, enough with replying with reviewers, it's taking to long to type! But since this is the most reviews I've gotten so far, I just need to reply! .:Yes folks, I'm sugar high today:.

Sorry about changing the title... it just kept bothering me until I changed it. And no, it has nothing to do with Kurama or Kagome turning into a demon, but there will be a surprise... And I am doing it again... this is my last time changing the title! But I just had to change it to this after I thought it up, finally a non-crappy title.

AnimeholicsInc - Oh... Thanks! But now everyone wants Kag to be with Kurama, so I guess I will! But first I will write a little Hiei/Kag scene because I love that pairing! (not sure if I can) But don't worry, I'll still listen to the reviewer's requests!

ficfan3484 - Yeah, sorry... But thanks for the review!

The Demon Sisters - I hope Youko isn't ooc... Thanks for reviewing! (yeah... I know, I love exclamation points)

jojogoodgirlgonebad2005- Thank you for reviewing! And I hope that doesn't mean Youko's ooc (I've got to stop writing that)... oh well, I can't change it now.

Animegurl5 - Well my story isn't going to be like yours or I might get reported or something for copying... O.o So don't worry about that!

Ryukotsusei - Yay! A Hiei/Kag vote! Thanks for reviewing!

emma - Kay, Kur/Kag is the definite pairing... for now.

Disclaimer - I disclaim, so don't sue, or else I'll beat you black and blue... not really... you know what I mean!

Black Blood Rose: Irony

A week, or about anyways (5 days), till her birthday, and she was turning sweet sixteen, as her mom reminded her. And here she was, strolling through a construction sight to repay a guy she barely knew. She could care less though, nothing really mattered anymore. Kagome sighed, at least it was better than being confronted by her mom on how she had gotten her wounds when was there to protect her. She couldn't help snorting at the irony of it all, that instead it was the one her mother counted on to protect her that wounded her with the intent to kill. She sighed again, smiling bitterly into the clear blue sky, obstructed by only pale white clouds, drifting lazily overhead.

Funny how irony liked to come and bite you on the ass just when you're living the worst part of your life. 'So it's been just about a year since I've met him, this would be our anniversary of sorts if things had turned out differently...' The pain had lessened, and now her heart only throbbed with sadness. She had probably gotten used to it. From all the times she had hoped against everything, only for it to be shot down like a bird...but this was real life, and life was screwed. Something zipped by in the sky.

Blinking, she shook her head is disbelief. 'I'm really going crazy about his betrayal... not to mention delusional.'

There was no way a pale blue headed girl, looking as cheerful as the crystalline blue sky, floating along the clouds as carefree on an oar until something happened, flying away at high speeds was possible. It must have been a figment of her imagination, created by overloaded stress, she told herself.

But then again... when you jump down a ten foot deep well and get transported to the past instead of breaking something, anything could be possible.

OoOoOoOoOoO

Let's just see where the blue hired girl in the air is going. (No, it's not that Kagome's going crazy)

"Lord Koenma, what do you need me here for?" Her eyebrows scrunched in worry in the most unboton like manner. Koenma, Prince of Spirit World, doesn't request to see her personally unless it was trouble, and she means BIG trouble. What seemed like a toddler with a silver pacifier, big hat, and Jr. stamped on his head was sitting at a desk, scratching his head sheepishly, though his worried expression gave away how much trouble he was in.

"Well... for one, I lost the Lusting Rose (crappy name, I know, but stay with me! But if you have a better name, you can suggest and I'll change it)," Pink eyes widened.

"But Lord Koenma! That item's guarded heavily in the S-class vault!"

"Yes, I know. But somehow it just disappeared, just vanished, gone." The toddler, known as Koenma, knitted his brows together in worry and stress, a headache throbbing. Throwing a sideways glance at the towering stack of papers, he thought it was somehow reproducing or something, because it had been growing larger then ever. "And it also seems humans have been disappearing from the Human World, and not just there, but in Spirit World the dead souls have also been seen just vanishing. It has thrown Spirit World in chaos, we have to sort out who is still here and who is gone from history." He rubbed a temple.

"I already knew that Lord Koenma, but... about the gone from history, what do you mean?" Botan's voice held confusion.

"It seems that the disappearances started in the past." He continued before Botan could ask how. "And so I need you to drag Yusuke here now, I don't care what he's doing, and find Kurama and Kuwabara too. But I want Hiei to keep an eye on the girl Kurama informed me about."

'I really need a break from this.' Koenma stared at the wall in a daze. 'Someone's messing with time, and it's really giving me a margarine.'

OoOoOoOoOoO

And now, if irony wasn't cruel enough, she just happened to run across a street fight on her way to the cloth shop. Sneaking past the alleyway with the experience of a person who had run through the night to get back to her time without being heard, she made it to the other side successfully, though she couldn't help looking back. 'I guess I miss the fights we've been in. I've kinda gotten used to them.' There were at least five boys in dark blue uniforms, indicating that they were from the same school as her.

'When did Mikaze Jr. High (what's her real school's name?) get punks and gangs?' Raising an eyebrow she glanced down to see three of them on the ground unconscious. After only a few minutes the others joined their comrades on the ground. Only to boys were left standing, one of them didn't seem to even break a sweat. One was in a green uniform, his short black hair gelled back, the other in a blue uniform, he had a sort of an orange Elvis style hair do. Both seemed to be from Sarayashiki Jr. High, didn't that school have a reputation for its punks?

"Boy Urameshi, that was a fun afternoon workout." The green uniformed boy just looked out the alley bored, hands in pockets. He raised an eyebrow, brown eyes staring at the girl staring back.

Urameshi... a strangely familiar name. Wasn't it the name of the toughest kid in Sarayshiki?

Fear might of been the usual response to Yusuke, but the girl just raised an eyebrow and left. 'Strange girl.' Suddenly a certain blue haired deity of death appeared in front of the two, successfully knocking them down.

"What the hell! - Botan!" Yusuke exclaimed, jumping back up.

"Yusuke! Lord Koenma needs to see you!" Yusuke raised an eyebrow. "Oh yes, you too Kuwabara."

Another chappie finished! R&R cause that helps me write faster... well in my opinion anyways. Also you get a cookie! .:Starts handing out little bishie shaped treats:.

Tally the Votes:

Kur/Kag: 5

Hiei/Kag: 4

Kur/Kag's in the lead, but only because some want her to be with either, so I'm picking Hiei/Kag for those! Er... is that aloud? And sorry if it was confusing or something. And I hope the 1342 words makes it up to you guys!
