Summary: 15-year-old Samantha McMurry has lived with two of her closest friends since her parents died in a car crash when she was 12. She, and best friend Michelle, are huge Yu Yu Hakusho fans, and get together everyday to watch it after school. (When Toonami was on in the afternoons) She's a normal teenage girl, until one day something changes her life completely.
Me: Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday dear me, happy birthday to me!
Hiei: What the hell are you doing now?
Me: Singing happy birthday to myself!
Hiei: (to himself) She's really starting to scare me.
Me: Well, it is my birthday! Well, actually two days ago...but still...
Kurama: (walks into my office space thingy) HieisOAO, can you get KF away from me?
Me: KF, leave the poor kitsune alone for once.
KF: Why? (Hanging onto Kurama's arm) You're always around Hiei.
Me: Well, I'm not always hanging off him.
KF: Shouldn't you tell them why you haven't updated your other fic...
Me: Good idea. I sort of lost all my chappies that I had on the 'puter. They got deleted! (Starts crying...and stops) Oh well, it was going to lala land...just a bunch of random things happening.
KF: She might re-write it, but leave the first 2 chapters the same...
Me: Enough chit-chat! Kurama, do the disclaimer please.
Kurama: HieisOAO doesn't own Yu Yu Hakusho.
Last time on Yu Yu Hakusho...
'Come on Sam!' Michelle yelled to her best friend. 'It's on!'
'Coming!' Sam ran out of the kitchen with an armful of junk food. 'Did I miss anything?'
'Just the review of yesterday's episode.' Michelle answered, grabbing a soda off the table.
'Good,' Sam sat down on the couch, pushing her long black hair out of her eyes.
Both of Sam's parents were white, but she looked half Asian. She had long black hair, golden, almond shaped eyes, and a dark complexion. She was also on the short side for her age, but that didn't bother her since most of her friends were shorter than her anyway. Both of her parents said the genes came from her father's side, but no one in her father's family was Asian.
Everyday, best friends, Sam McMurry and Michelle Jarrett got together at Sam's house to watch their favorite show, Yu Yu Hakusho.
'Oh my God! What happened to Kurama?!' Michelle screamed.
'Who cares about him? He got hurt. My Hi-chan was smart enough to get out of the way before he got hurt,' Sam answered.
'No, he's just faster that Kurama,' Michelle shoved Sam across the couch. 'Kurama's smarter.'
'Then why did her get caught and had to go to the Ningenkai if he's so smart?'
'Shut up, I'm trying to watch the show,' Michelle said, defeated.
It was the same way everyday. The two friends always argued over who was better, Hiei or Kurama. Michelle, who liked Kurama, always used his smartness as why he's better than Hiei. Sam, who was obsessed with Hiei, used his quickness and his "sexiness" as the reason why he was better than Kurama. The argument always ended the same way everyday. Sam outsmarting Michelle with Kurama getting hurt as Youko in the Makai.
'You know what would be awesome?' Sam asked when the show ended.
'What?'
'If Hiei and Kurama were real people and lived in our world.'
'I wish. But we both know that would never happen.'
'I know,' Sam said, bummed.
'I gotta get home. My mom's making me cook dinner tonight,' Michelle said, standing up and walking to the door.
'Kay, I'll see you tomorrow!' Sam waved to her friend.
'Say hi to Justin and Gary for me.'
'Will do.'
Gary and Justin were Sam's housemates, and closest friends. She considered Gary her older brother, and Justin was her best friend. She grew up with Gary living next door to her family. Over the years, the two became closer and closer. They considered each other family ever since they were in middle school. She met Justin in school six years ago. They instantly clicked and became best friends. Her family died in a car crash three years earlier. The two boys agreed to move in with Sam when they found out that she didn't have any living relatives in the state. Gary and Justin work after school so they don't get home until 6:00...usually...
Sam was in the middle of writing her English essay when the front door opened and two boys walked in.
'Hey Sam,' the taller of the two said, closing the door.
'You're late,' Sam said, looking up from the table at the clock on the wall that said 6:30. 'Take your shoes off.'
'Sorry, our boss held everyone late today,' the shorter one said, leaving his shoes at the door.
'Michelle says hi,' Sam said, going back to her homework.
'But we don't get a hello from you?' the taller guy asked, walking over to her and sitting down on the couch.
'You don't deserve a hello, Gary,' Sam looked up and smiled.
'Sucks for you,' the other boy laughed, moving his brown hair out of his eyes.
'Shut up Justin,' Gary said. 'Now do I get my hug and kiss?'
'Fine,' Sam smiled, hugging him and kissing him on the cheek.
'What? I don't get any lovin?' Justin asked.
'If you're just going to stand there, no,' Sam said.
That night, Sam changed into her pajamas, which consisted of a black tank top and dark blue shorts. She grabbed a book of her shelf and a flashlight off her dresser and climbed out her window onto the oak tree that grew right outside her window. She climbed up three branches and leaned against the trunk of the tree. When she did, something caught her eye. She leaned forward to get a better look, and saw that it was a piece of black fabric.
'What's this doing here?' Sam asked herself, picking up the fabric. 'I told Justin and Gary to stop climbing my tree. If I find out it's one of them, I'm going to kill them.'
She leaned back against the tree and opened her book. An hour later, she climbed back down the tree and back into her room. But she stopped when she noticed worn spots on the branch right outside her window. She looked closer and noticed that they were foot prints. She knew they weren't from her because she makes sure she doesn't hurt the tree in any way. Someone had been watching her. She climbed back into her room and locked the window shut, and crawled into her bed and fell asleep right away. She didn't notice the shadowy figure standing outside her window, watching her.
Me: Whaddya think?
Hiei: It sucks...
Me: Meanie.
CK: Who's the dude at the window?!?!?!
Me: You'll just have to wait till the next two chapters...
CK: Fine.
HL: Why don't you just take HieisOAO's spiral and read it?
Me: HL!!! Don't give her any ideas!
CK: Thanks HL! (Grabs HieisOAO's spiral and starts reading)
Me: Hey! You have to wait just like everyone else!
HL: Ignore those two...and please review!
Me: By the way, flames are accepted...if you want to flame me that is...
