Ok, I wanna intro my selves properly. I say selves because im practically schizo on the comp. I have 3 characters. So let me introduce…

Sadonna: - When I need to kill someone or be sarcastic, she takes over.

Lyta:-She just glares; she is also extremely good at rping.

Rach:-This is the normal me, she acts just like me, thoroughly nuts.

Anyway, thanks for the reviews, and let's carry on.


Chapter 3

Clowns: - By t.a.t.u

Can you see me now?

Lyta looked around at them all carefully, taking each of their measures. And holding eye contact with all of them. None of them properly knew her thanks to Koenma, and she could have hugged him for that.

Can you see me now?

The red head of the group stepped forward, and Lyta sensed a great power deep down inside of him, she vaguely recognised it, but couldn't for the life of her place it.

"My name is Kurama." He said, not looking the slightest bit uneasy under Lyta's relentless stare. "The others you see before you are Kuwabara, Yusuke and Hiei. We are sorry for your-" "Save it, I don't want nor need your pity or condolences, im not as delicate as you think I am. I've survived more than you think." Lyta cut in, effectively shutting Kurama up before he could carry on.

"Hn" Came to her ears in a derisive tone from the corner of the room. Lyta slowly turned her gaze to the shadow in the corner, levelling her gaze with his for a full literal minute as the others looked bewildered from one to the other.

Koenma finally broke the silence, but didn't break the staring contest. "Lyta, I have decided to ask you to join the team. Your father would have wanted you to be protected. And this is the best place you could be right now."


All this weeping in the air

At the mention of her father Lyta's eyes turned glacial. Breaking eye contact with Hiei She turned to Koenma, this time her gaze was uncaring. "I can take care of myself, you know that by now, or at least you should." Lyta murmured, only loud enough for Koenma and Hiei to hear, since they were the closest.

Who can tell where it will fall?

"Yes, I am well aware of that. And I need to speak with you now," He said, looking at all the others in the room. "Privately, only Hiei may stay, but he has to stay outside. I will need him to escort Lyta to her room."

Through floating forests in the air

Lyta's eyes never left Koenma as the boys all trooped outside, her mind block was up in an instant as she felt the presence of a jagan, but other than that her entire Mind was focused on Koenma.

"Ok, tell me what you know and ill tell you if you're right or wrong." She said, sitting in a swivel chair behind her.

"When you were born, you weren't born on this planet. Your father was a demon from here that much is true, but your mother was an alien from a planet far away called Dantori. She insisted on giving birth to you on your home planet. Am I right so far?" He asked, Looking at Lyta as her eyes became momentarily shocked.

Lyta nodded her head, urging him to continue, and hoping he was trustworthy.

'Cross the rolling open sea

"Your father was a water demon, and controlled a small part of the Makai. Your mother died years after giving birth to you on her home planet and you were exiled here because your weren't really a Dantorian." He said, pausing to take a breathe before continuing. "You were found by the nice Shanks family who took you in. They cared for you, until you were kidnapped at the age of 5. You were taken by scientists who wished to see what you were. It turns out that a member of the Shanks family had grown jealous and knew of your powers. They sent the scientists to you and told them everything. They tried to enhance you, and made you inject potions that would give you more powers. They succeeded in making you part Koorime, kitsun-" Lyta cut him off before he finished the sentence. "Actualy, they never completed that one, all they got me implanted with was Koorime blood, which means I cry gems when anger consumes me. The blood of a fire demon, which made me take on a phoenix form. And the blood of an ice witch, which gave me the ability to manipulate ice."


Blow a kiss, I run through air

"Aaaah I didn't know that, but I take it you escaped easily and here you are." He said, looking at Lyta.

"Well I wouldn't say easily, but I did escape. But I must ask you, don't tell the others. They mustn't be put in danger because of me." Lyta said, looking firmly at Koenma, getting her point across.

Leave the past, find nowhere

"Im sure they can handle themselves, but I won't tell them, unless you do." Koenma said, standing up and walking up to her. "Im sure that by now you know what that necklace does?'" He stated, looking at her and carrying on after he received the small nod. "Then I suggest you keep it safe, you wouldn't want it falling into the wrong hands now would you?"

Floating forests in the air

"No, I definitely wouldn't, is that all?" Lyta asked, her tone turning chilly.

"No, you're free to go. Just follow Hiei and welcome to the Rekai Tentai." He said, before turning back to his desk and the paperwork on it.

Clowns all around you

Lyta walked through the huge doors, and found herself being studied closely by Hiei, who leaned uncaringly against the wall opposite the wall. Again, he tried to search her mind, before she closed him out, putting a bit of energy in the close-off to show that she didn't want her mind searched without her permission.

"Follow me" Hiei said, turning and walking off down the halls. Lyta only just managed to catch up to him before he vanished, and mentally stored all the hallways and doors incase she got lost. Finally they came to a deep violet door.


Clowns that only let you know

Hiei walked forward and pushed it open, standing back so she could go in and look around, and then following after she had. Inside it was like a dream come true. It was all painted a deep violet, a colour that always calmed you. In the centre was a large bed suspended from the ceiling by wires. It was held securely in place and was a perfect circle. The sheets were a deep velvet silk, which ran like water over the bed on to the floor just a few inches away. It swung when she sat on it, then she looked around a little more, and nearly choked.

Where you let your senses go

On the top of a cupboard in front of her and next to the door, which Hiei still occupied, was a doll. It was about the size of a pillow, wearing a pink dress with lace edges. Its face was yet to be complete and was thoroughly blank but the hair was perfect, millions of strands of cotton had been intricately stitched into the dolls head, all hand-made by Lyta herself. It was the doll she was going to give Tia for her birthday, after the massacre she had been meaning to complete it, but could never bring herself to.

Clowns all around you

It's a cross I need to bear

After a while Hiei interrupts her. "Kurama will be up when dinner is ready." And with that he leaves, allowing her some space as a tear rolls down her cheek.

All this black and cruel despair

In her room, Lyta stood up and walked to the cupboard. Picking up the doll, she notices a small piece of paper underneath it, Reading it, she failed to notice the tentative knock on the door, or the red eyed girl who came in anyway.

"Did you make that Lyta-San?" Yukina asked curiosity on her face.

Lyta dropped the paper as if it was on fire, and turned to the girl in the doorway, her eyes reminded her of Hiei, but she shook that from her mind in seconds, like he had a sister.

"Im sorry" Yukina said, looking apologetic." My name is Yukina, Kuwa-chan told me who you were and I came to check up on you"

"That's ok" Lyta said, unable to be mad at Yukina, she was to goddamn cute to yell at. "Im fine, and I did make this, for a …friend of mine, who I lost contact with a few months ago." Lyta said, another tear falling down her face.

"Lyta-san, why are you crying?" Yukina asked, looking at her curiously.

"No, nothings wrong." Lyta said, smiling. Everything had turned out for the better, she only needed her cousin and everything would be perfect, but since that wasn't going to happen anytime soon, she had no choice but to smile and get on with it.

"Would you like to know how I did this?" Lyta asked Yukina, sitting on the bed and motioning for Yukina to join her.

Yukina nodded her head and sat next to her, making the bed swing gently. For the next hour Lyta and Yukina both examined the doll, with Lyta showing Yukina how the hair was made. Both jumped slightly when a knock came at the door.

This is an emergency

"Come in" Lyta called. Then smiled involuntarily as Kurama walked in, shyly. "Relax, im not gonna bite your head off, yet." She said, looking at the doll in her arms as she stood up and laid it beside Yukina.

Don't you hide your eyes from me

A few minutes later, Lyta, Yukina and Kurama walked into the kitchen were the gang was assembled, along with Botan, whom Lyta knew, and a girl with brown hair who was sitting with Yusuke. Lyta Didn't have time to contemplate this before she was choked in a hug by none other than Botan. "Lyta, it's been years. Where have you been keeping yourself?" Botan asked, hugging the life out of her.

Open them and see me now

"Botan…Air!" Lyta gasped, trying to get out of the deat…Hug.

"You've changed since the party Ly-Ly." Botan said, making you cringe as she said your pet name. At this the two idiots ((Sadonna: Theres no reason to ask who, we all knows who they are)) Cracked up and Lyta cracked a vein. Spotting a conveniently placed bucket of ice cold water ((Rach: Oooooh, I wonder how that got thereevil giggle)) Stalking up to the two giggling baka's she poured the entire bucket on them, earning a giggle from Botan, the brown haired girl and even Kurama and Hiei. Yukina looked shocked, but giggled straight afterwards, running off to get towels.

Can you see me now?
Can you see me now?

"That'll teach you not to laugh at me, im not a joke at your expense." She said, putting down the bucket and walking off, dusting her hands as she did. She walked over to the dinning table and sat down, looking up and asking "so, what's for dinner?"

Can you see?
Can you see?

After a fairly uneventful dinner ((all that happened was that the baka's pigged out, Lyta learned who the brown haired girl was. Kieko. And she learned about what they all were.)) Lyta stood up and started heading back to her room before Yukina stopped her.

"Wait, Lyta-san. Join us for a while. We are going to watch the television." She said, in a cute voice that melted her resolve to go.

See me here in the air

The news was on, and was mainly centred around a girl they had found.

"At precisely 9:00am this morning, a young girl was found shivering outside the police station, when asked her name al she said was 'I need cousin Lyta.'

With this Lyta's blood ran cold. She was on a chair near the window, Hiei occupied this window and everyone else was on chairs and the sofa.

The news reader continued.

The young girl has said nothing else. We will inform you of any leads and such when we are notified of them. But if you do know this girl, please come forward, she misses you."

Not holding on to anywhere
But holding on so beware

"Tia" Came here strangled murmur as she looked at the picture on the screen. It was definitely her, granted she looked skinny and gaunt, but those eyes, she was most definitely alive… and petrified out of her young mind.


I have secrets I won't share

Lyta suddenly felt sick. Thankfully no-one but Hiei had heard her. He looked at her oddly but she didn't notice him, she was far to worried about getting Tia.

See me here pushing you

"I need to go, now." She stuttered, running out of the room before she was sick. She finally made it to her bedroom. There she collapsed on the bed, half in relief, and half in sorrow.

If I then deny I do

She looked up as a shadow flitted into the room through her open window. Wiping the shock from her face she just stared at him.

"What do you want?" She asked, boredly standing up.

Contemplate or wish away
If I ask you not to stay

"Hn, who is she too you onna, you can't hide your words from me like you can your thoughts." He said, sarcasm in his voice.

Clowns that only let you know
Where you let your senses go

"Its none of your business, so stay out."Lyta said, sitting on the bed and staring at her feet, trying not to cry. She didn't need this right now.

Stare

Clowns all around you

"Look. Let's just put it this way before you bore a whole through my skull. She's a family member who survived. She was kidnapped the night it all happened and now she's turned up. It's just rattled me seeing her again. That's all."

Stare

((Lyta: God he is so good isn't he, id love to glare like that.))

"Fine, I want to see her again, are you happy now. She meant everything to me; my life has no meaning without her. I WANT HER BACK." She yells at him, grabbing the doll from before off the bed and hugging it close as tears cascaded down her face. But these tears also contained red gems. ((Sadonna: Uh oh, she's angry))

It's a cross I need to bear
All this black and cruel despair

A hand touched her face, smoothing away the hair from her face as it caught on of the gems. Hiei stared at the gem in his hand as he stood before the shivering body of Lyta. Within seconds he had disappeared. But Lyta didn't notice. She just lay down on the rocking bed and fell asleep, as the tears dried down her face.

This is an emergency
Don't you hide your eyes from me

The next morning, when she woke up, she nearly died in shock. Another bed had been added to the room. It was smaller but also suspended to the roof and rocking. In it slept a tiny gaunt girl, tiny girls framing the face from the news last night. The little girl stirred and woke up, brown eyes locking with her cousins startled blue ones.

"COUSIN LY-LY" The young girl yelled, getting out of bed and hugging her cousin as Lyta hugged and cradled her, thanking god she was still alive.

In the room next to them, Hiei smirked when he heard the yell. Before going back to sleep. No-one else would know, since Koenma had brought her in instead of him. And he had come in through the window five minutes before that.

Open them and see me now


R and R, thats all
