Koei: Yes, this is alchemistofdarkness, changed my pen name because there are to many people with alchemist in their name. Next chapter ready to be written! Thanks for the 952+ Hits! But less people are reading the farther the story gets... T.T I don't feel in the mood to write. But still nothing much to do, so I'll start now. Sorry I haven't updated in a while, still I'm faster then some people. (coughanimegurl5cough), but if you don't know I'm still stranded in China, and I'm back from Zheng Zhou or whatever. And now in Beijing, so now I have no computer unless I go to my dad's office. (He works in China)

ladykurama1: Talk to you where? And I'm not really good at help, I just... write. Know what I mean? Have a chat with animegurl5, she's good at writing, and she's my beta reader!

shadow miko: Kay, you'll find the pairing votes at the bottom if I don't forget, I forgot to do it last time because... I went for a walk and got lost on the road to life.

Not many people with questions. Good. Now enough of my idiocies and onto the real fic!

'... Kurama...'

'... Hiei...'

Disclaimer - I'm tired of writing this. I disclaim, for if I didn't, wouldn't that mean I might own IY, or YYH? And wouldn't that mean, I have wealth? and wouldn't that mean, if I owned an anime, wouldn't that mean, the world is doomed from my terror of an anime? Thank goodness I don't. (he he, now onto the REAL REAL REALLY REAL FIC!)

Black Blood Rose: Trouble 0xoU (sorry, just had to do that)

She looked into emerald green eyes, seeming a little irritated for some reason.

"My mother has dragged me to your party, it seems. And she also invited some of my friends to come." Behind him were three other boys, two were surprisingly familiar, and also still fighting.

"What the heck are all the people I just meet coming from!" Groaning, Kagome slams her head on the wall a few times before sighing. Kurama blinks, looking surprised at the girl's openness. "Sorry, got carried away. Stress from... overwork." That was partly true, she had been piled with schoolwork as soon as the teachers thought that she had miraculously recovered from all her illnesses. But the cause was mostly because of the frustration from losing the shards (in which she has lost a couple of brain cells overexerting herself from slamming her head painfully against the wall), and the fact that Kima still hasn't contacted her over the week. Nodding for the moment, he brushed aside her hesitation in answering.

"So you know them." He stated, gesturing toward the green and blue uniformed boys throwing insults at each other.

"Yeah, I ran into them. Sort of. They were making pulp of a couple of guys from my school. (Does Kagome's school have a name?)" She glanced at the black clad boy at the back. "So he's your friend? Doesn't seem to talk much, does he?" She strides toward him, deciding that if it was her birthday, at least try to act the least bit inconspicuous and act like she wanted to celebrate her birthday. "Hello!..." She waited for a couple of seconds before repeating. "Helloooooo." He just narrowed his ruby color eyes in slight irritation.

"He's Hiei. Doesn't like to talk much. I'm Urameshi, Yusuke, and that's Kuwabara, Kazuma." The green uniformed boy grinned, poking a half conscious blue uniformed boy on the floor with his foot. Nodding, she poked Hiei in the shoulder.

"So why'd you come, you don't seem like that type that likes crowds." She questions Hiei. 'So much fun! At least someone's fun to tease.' Kagome smiled, she didn't think that she would have fun at the party. She poked him again and he finally spoke up for a hidden threat, annoyance lacing his words.

"Don't test my patience, onna." Sticking her tongue out she gave him an extra hard jab before retreating. More footsteps came from the stairs to the shrine.

"Did you see that guy up in front!" A feminine voice squealed into her ears and seemed to hit her brain so hard she started forming a headache. 'Great. Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi are here.' She slumped slightly, but ran down to greet them.

"Hi guys, nice to see you." Halfheartedly, she led them into the house, followed by the boys.

"Wow! Why didn't you tell us know you knew Shuiichi! Or that his hot friend. Maybe you could introduce us sometime." Eri whispered, giggling with Ayumi. (Was is Ayumi or Yuka who wasn't crazy about boys?) Blushing slightly, Kagome marched ignoring the other comments and into the living room where Shiori, was already chatting with her mother. They raised their heads at the sight of her, and both smiled kindly.

"Why hello dear. Me and Shiori were just chatting, but we can move while you all can get to know each other." Kagome's brown eyes were pleading as they strolled out of the room, mind screaming, don't leave me with them! Placing herself on the floor in a kneeling position along with the others, she sighed as her friends chatted happily away. 'What should we do? I guess I should think of something.'

With Hiei and Kurama

'Fox, for what reason are we here for. You, the idiot and the detective need to locate the Blood Rose. (Yes, I have decided to change it to that. But I still think the name sucks) and I need to report to Koenma.'

'I've never heard you so eager to go listen to Koenma's orders.' Amusement was clear in his words.

'I don't want to be trapped with a crowd of ningens. I'd rather listen to Koenma's orders then have fun at this stupid party.' There was a slight pause and someone screamed in the background, and then a thud was heard. 'I don't even know why we could enter the barrier.'

'I assume that since we were invited, the barrier did not harm us.'

'Why is this girl able to draw such power? I don't like the feeling from her.'

'I do remember something about this sort of power. Do you recall those tales about mikos?'

'They have purifying energies, and some, healing abilities. But this still doesn't tell us about how she obtained those shards. And of how she knows of mind barriers.' Kurama was silent.

'I do not know either. Let's just wait for the party to end before you report to Koenma.'

'We're not able to leave anyways. It seems you have to be granted permission.' There was irritation evident in his voice.

Back With Kagome

She had just about had enough, Kuwabara and Yusuke were fighting again, and once the blue uniformed boy had asked her friend out, creating some unwanted excitement (Eri slapped him). Shuiichi and Hiei were just sitting in the background, (not that she wanted to talk with the redhead, she assured herself) and now her friends were back to interrogating her, now because of the two boys sitting in the background) Standing up abruptly she glared at everyone.

"Okay! We're going to play a game whether you like it or not." She said icily, an eerie feeling entered the room as an deadly aura surrounded her.

"Wh-what's it go-gonna be Kagome?" Yuka stuttered.

"First of all, everyone's going to play it. Got it?" She waited for them to nod, but Hiei was just glaring back.

'Just do it Hiei. We don't want to cause a scene.' Hiei glared at him, but gave a 'Hn' and leaned against the wall, glowering at the raven-haired girl.

"Okay, the game is - "

TBC

A/N: Wow, I finished it in one day. Didn't know I had that little stuff to do. And tomorrow I get to go back to the U.S.! Oh joy, 16 hour ride back to CA. Okay, so now I left it off with the Yu Yu gang plus Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka forced into a game of... SOMETHING! So vote for what you want. The popular truth or dare, or a game of strip poker? Maybe another idea from someone else more creative then me? R&R to tell me what you want.

P.S. And PLEASE tell me what 15 year olds do at parties. Cause I have no clue and that's why I ended it here. Because I'm brainless when it comes to parties, and I don't know if 15 year olds even hold b-day parties. I may not update in a while cause I don't want to offend any teens if they don't EVER do that at parties. I'm not old enough to know what they do. Let's just say that I think teens have the weirdest problems...

Time to Tally the Votes:

Kur/Kag: 10 (wow, that's whole bunch!)

Hiei/Kag: 7 (people must really like Kur/Kags)

Hiei/Shizuru: 1 (I really don't think I can squeeze it in. Sorry, sorry, sorry!)

The fluff and romance are coming later when they know each other better, just to let you know. So don't expect it soon! And votes are still open!
