Izandria Johnson: Thanks for reviewing again! Thanks for letting me know about Botan's name. I already knew that was how you spelled her name, but I guess that I, being the author, overlooked it. So, thanks again. To answer your question or confusion about the girls being in a human form, well, they just tend to be like that. I never really thought things out while writing it(seeing as how I'm on a constant caffeine high with little or no sleep), but they were in the demon world walking about in human-like forms. They weren't exactly hiding it or anything. Besides, some demons look human and since they're powerful, they don't get eaten.) Again thanks for reviewing and for pointing such things out to me like the telepathic conversations! Please continue to review and add your comments-I need them!

Okay, here's another chapter even though I only have a couple of people who review...hint hint. Oh well! I'm not really sure where I'm taking this story so bear with me. So that you all won't get confused or anything when the part comes, I made Kurama have this sort of split personality thing. Er, you'll see. This time I hope that I've made it a bit less confusing on the telepathic conversations, so here's the chapter!

Chapter III

The house was big. It was almost as big as Yumi and Aya's mansion…almost. The house didn't look out of the ordinary; it looked like a normal, white, three story house.

Inside it was normal as well. The living room had wooden floors with a white carpet in the middle. The furniture was white too; there was an L shaped couch in front of the TV and a wooden coffee table in front of it. There was also a white love seat next to the window. The TV had a DVD and VCR that was supplied with a load of movies. There was also a Playstation 2 with A LOT of games.

The kitchen was next to the living room. On one side, there was the stove, dishwasher, etc. On the other side there was a long, wooden table with a flower vase in the middle filled with roses.

The second story of the house had four rooms. One room was the bathroom for that floor, the others were bedrooms. The last floor was the same, except that there were five rooms instead of four. There was a basement that served as their fighting and training area. They could make as much damage or noise as they wanted; the room was impenetrable and soundproof.

A split second after leaving their mansion, Aya, Yumi, Kurama, Hiei, and Botan arrived at their destination; they ended up in the living room. As soon as the smoke cleared, Aya and Yumi transformed into their human forms. Of course, nobody was that surprised at their transformations since A, Botan had known them for a long time and B, Kurama and Hiei had already seen Yumi and Aya transform before. Aya still had the red rose behind her ear that Kurama had given her.

"Nice place," Yumi said as she surveyed the living room. Everyone did the same.

"Very nice," Aya commented. She was lying down on the couch holding a soft, velvet pillow.

"Where is everyone?" Kurama asked Botan. Right on cue, Yuske and Kuwabara ran down the stairs.

"This place is awesome!" Yuske laughed as he plopped down on the couch. "Don't even think about taking the rooms on the second floor, they're ours," Yuske said with a triumptive grin. Kuwabara was busing setting up the playstation.

"Okay, I like higher floors anyway," Yumi said smiling at him.

Yuske's brows furrowed as he tried to identify what was different about the two, then it struck him. "Hey, wait…. You two look different...YOU"RE NOT IN YOUR DEMON FORMS!" he yelled.

Yumi rolled her eyes. "No dip, Sherlock."

"We couldn't exactly go around in the ningen world looking like demons," Aya laughed.

"Okay, okay. I've got to hurry up and take Kurama to his house so he can tell his family something, so you three should go and choose your rooms. Remember to touch the pillar by the door to decorate it," Botan said pulling Kurama's arm as she transported off with him. As soon as she left with Kurama Aya and Yumi raced up the stairs with their bags. Hiei walked up the stairs.

By the time he was up there Yumi and Aya had already chosen their rooms. Apparently, Yumi's was the first room on his left and Aya's was the first on his right. Hiei walked down the hall and chose the second door on the left, beside Yumi's room; he figured that Kurama would want to be beside Aya. They seemed to be getting close quickly.

When Yumi and Aya touched the pillar by the door inside their room, the dull blank room transformed into the exact rooms they had just left. A.k.a. -- their dream rooms. When everyone was comfortable and unpacked, they all found their way down stairs to the living room. Yuske and Kuwabara were busy trying to beat each other in a fighting game. They were screaming at each other, punching, the works. Yumi was drawing on the love seat and Hiei was looking out the window as usual. Aya was watching the two boys play, and secretly waiting for Kurama to return. When he finally did return it was 4:00 p.m. He came in and said hi to everyone with his usual little smile.

"Hey" Yuske and Kuwabara mumbled between laughter. They didn't even take their eyes away from the screen.

"Hn," is all Hiei replied.

"Hey," Yumi said as she continued to draw.

Aya's face lit up as she jumped from the couch. "HI!" she smiled. "Come on I'll show you to your room!" she said taking him up the stairs. She showed him to his room and told him how to decorate it. When he was done his room looked pretty cool. It had dark green walls and had plants in it like Aya's. He had wooden dressers and a big king sized bed with red sheets and covers-Aya certainly loved it. She ran over to the plants which were a certain breed of demon plants. They weren't the dangerous kind of demon plants but the gentle, loving ones.

"Awe, they're so cute," she said as the plant entwined down her arm. She petted it gingerly as if it were a child.

"I see you like him," he said, as he walked over to where Aya was and petted the plant too.

"Yes, it's rare to see this kind of plant. I've only seen it once."

"I used to have one like him before I made my escape here, to Ningenkai."

"Oh, so that's where he came from," she replied turning to face him.

"I guess so," he said smiling. Aya giggled, but then quit.

"Um…If you don't mind my asking, what do you mean 'escaped'?"

So, Kurama sat down in a chair by the bed offering Aya to do the same. She gladly took a seat on his bed directly across from him. Without any further delay he told her. He told her everything he could remember, which happened to be a lot. Nevertheless, she listened intently as if she were a child listening to a bedtime story.

Aya was quite surprised to learn that he was indeed the famous Kitsune thief. She had never seen him in all her years living, but she and her sister knew of him. They had each been expecting to come across his path one day since they tended to steal quite a bit of things –or at least she did. It wasn't her fault she always felt the unresisting urge to take things that were particularly pretty…and not hers. In any case, she felt somewhat disappointed when she started to hear the rumors about a bounty hunter taking Yoko Kurama's life. Now she was pleased to hear that that was not the case after all.

Of course she told him all of this.

Kurama smiled when she finished. "I'm glad you care."

"Oh don't get me wrong Kurama. Since you weren't around it was quite easy to steal things without having to worry about the possibility of the cunning and merciless fox coming and trying to kill me."

"What makes you think I won't now?" he asked smiling mysteriously.

Aya returned the smile before replying. "Because I can see right through you. You're way too nice and polite to do anything like that anymore." Kurama laughed and nodded his head in agreement. "Besides, you wouldn't want to kill me now would you?" she teased giving him her best puppy dog face.

"Of course not," he smiled. Aya giggled for what seemed to be the hundredth time that day.

"Anyways, we should probably start to unpack your things," she said walking over and picking up one of his bags he brought. He nodded his head in agreement as he too grabbed one of the bags. They unpacked his things quickly then went downstairs to see what everyone was doing. Yumi had evidently finished what she was drawing since she was now playing the playstation and dominating it. Botan was laughing and Hiei smirking as she beat Yuske and Kuwabara every time.

"Come on! That's not fair! You should've told us that you knew how to play!" Yuske whined.

"I never denied that I knew how. You just never asked."

"That's it! My turn! You're going down this time," Kuwabara threatened as he tore the controller from Yuske's hands.

Yumi beat him in two minutes. "No! YOU'RE CHEATING!"

"How can I cheat on a game?"

"I-I-I don't know! You're using your powers!"

"Hn, powers won't work on a game you idiot," Hiei said smirking. "You're just stupid."

"Why you little--" Kuwabara said as he made a move toward Hiei.

"Dinner's done!" they heard Botan yell in the kitchen. While everyone was preoccupied with the battle of egos, she had been preparing dinner.

Hiei evilly grinned at Kuwabara and walked into the kitchen. A couple minutes later, everyone else came in as well. They all ate their dinner which was surprisingly good compared to how Botan usually cooked. When everybody was finished, they all went into the living room and watched TV. That's when they heard the doorbell ring.

"What? Who could be coming at 9:00?" Yuske thought out loud.

"It's a surprise!" Botan cheered. Yumi cringed. The surprises she usually got from Botan involved a dress of some sort.

Botan ran to the door and opened it. "We have guests!" It was Keiko and Yukina. They both walked in and instantly Yumi could see Hiei shut down, even more so than usual. Everyone else greeted Yukina and Keiko with Hi or Hey, with the exception of Kuwabara who threw himself at Yukina's feet. Hiei was annoyed. He went back to sitting at the window. Being the curious cat she was, Yumi couldn't help but find out what was going on.

What's up Hiei? Is that your ex or something? Yumi teased as she gestured towards Yukina.

NO YOU IDIOT! He shouted.

She flinched at the sudden show of rage. Since Yumi could tell he wasn't going to talk she decided to get the info the easy way. Snooping through his mind. She sat down on the love seat and pretended to draw, then she dove in. She immediately went to the part of his brain that she could feel had Yukina in it, that's where she found her answer.

Yukina was his sister.

Now that she looked at them carefully, she could see the similarity. They were both short and they each had the same crimson eyes.

So she's your sister... Yumi said. Hiei nearly fell from the window.

How did you find out!

Call it my intuition. Besides, you just proved me right.

Hn, you better not tell anyone. He threatened, glaring in her direction.

Okay, but only because you asked so politely...How many people know?

Everyone except for Kuwabara, your sister and her. Possibly some of the other girls as well, I'm not really sure. Just don't, I repeat don't, even speak about it to me or anyone.

Got it. And with that the silent conversation was over.

Yumi grabbed a book on the table near her and began to read. She didn't find the book the least it entertaining –it seemed to be a romance novel and a mushy one at that. Oh well. She didn't even mean to read the book. She was merely using it to hide her face. She knew her current thoughts would betray her written as confusion all across her face. Usually she'd be able to hide such stupid things, but what she had just discovered unsettled her. No, not that Yukina was Hiei's sister though that did have something to do with it. No. What she was thinking now was a little sad if not a little disturbing. Yumi had stumbled upon some very… interesting memories that she chose not to share with Hiei. Memories of when he was but a child; some memories he couldn't even remember. It disturbed her as she continued to think about it; she felt so much pain and grief. She quickly shrugged it off. Must be my imagination. There's no way…

Yumi's thoughts were thankfully interrupted by Botan. "So how about we play a house warming game!" she cheered, glancing at everyone with pleading eyes.

"What game?" Keiko asked. Botan got an evil grin. Crap... Yumi thought. "Truth or Dare."

There was no way she was going to play THAT game. "Well, it was nice to meet you both," Yumi said shaking Keiko and Yukina's hands suddenly. "But I'm a little tired so I think I'll go to bed now. Bye!" she said hurrying to the stairs.

"Me too," Hiei said, also rushing for the stairs.

"Get them!" Botan shrieked.

"Oh no you don't Yumi!" Aya yelled after her sister. She jumped over the couch with Kurama behind her. Aya tackled Yumi and got Yuske to help her bring her back into the living room. Kurama got Hiei with Kuwabara helping. After about ten minutes of fighting they finally got Hiei and Yumi to sit down in the circle. Hiei sat between Yukina and Kuwabara--much to Kuwabara's disappointment-- with Kurama beside him, Yuske sat beside Kuwabara then it was Botan then Yumi then Aya then Keiko.

"Okay, so who's going to go first?" Botan asked. Nobody volunteered. "Oh all right. I'll go first. Yuske, truth or dare?"

"Truth."

"Okay...Do you love Keiko?" Yuske blushed and mumbled something.

"We can't hear you..."

"I said yes!" he shouted, blushing out of embarrassment. Keiko blushed too and was smiling.

"Err...Kurama."

"Truth."

"What did you think the first time you saw Aya transform?"

"I...I thought she looked very beautiful," he said smiling at Aya. The first time he saw her, the human part of him thought she was beautiful, but his Yoko half seemed skeptical and made fun of his human emotions like he usually did when Kurama saw a pretty girl at school. That's why he never had a girlfriend at school; he didn't think he could take the incessant bickering and judgmental comments that haunted the back of his mind. Then, Aya had transformed; the Kitsune in him didn't have any snide comments after that.

Aya smiled back and winked at him. Everyone laughed, except for Hiei and Yumi, who were still upset about being forced to participate. "Kuwabara."

"Dare!" Kurama smiled.

"I dare you to sleep with Yuske- yes, in the same bed-for a week." Everyone was cracking up, minus Yuske and Kuwabara.

"What! There's no way I'm gonna!"

"Don't go humping each other during the night!" Yumi laughed. This mad everyone laugh even harder.

"No way man! I ain't gonna do it!"

"You have to. It's the rules, baka." Hiei said smirking. Everyone was surprised to hear him talk, Kuwabara was enraged.

"You wouldn't do anything like that and you know it!" Kuwabara argued.

"Try me."

"Fine then, I will! I dare you to sleep in the same bed as…as..." he looked around the circle trying to find someone that would do the most damage. That's when he spotted Aya behind her sister pointing at her, mouthing 'choose Yumi.' Kuwabara grinned. "Yumi! For a month!" he finished. Hiei turned red. Everyone could tell he was fuming, even Kuwabara who was as dense as rock could tell.

"Fine." he said through gritted teeth. Yumi wasn't fine though. She knew her sister had to be behind this and she would pay.

Aya I know what you did, and trust me. You're gonna regret it... she threatened.

Aya gulped and smiled innocently at her sister. I-I-I don't know what you're talking about...

YOU'RE A TERRIBLE LIAR!

"Umm… Go Hiei it's your turn to pick!" Aya said trying to get her sister's attention away from herself.

"Hn. Keiko."

"Umm... How about dare." Such a brave, brave girl. Aya thought to herself as she slightly shook her head. She knew that not only Yumi, but Hiei, would be out for revenge as well.

Hiei grinned evilly. "I dare you to kiss Yuske on the lips for a full 5 minutes… at least." Keiko turned fire engine red as did Yuske.

"Hiei! You little punk!" Yuske hissed.

"You have to do it, remember?" Yuske gulped. "Besides, you love her right? I'm merely pushing you in the right direction of your…budding romance." This earned Hiei another glare.

Botan, however, was delighted about the entire situation. She wasted no time taking out a watch. Then finally, after about 20 minutes of convincing, Yuske kissed Keiko on the lips, in front of everyone, for the full five minutes promised. They did it from across the room though since Aya was nice enough to, more or less, demand it. When they were done, they were each even redder than before. Yuske sat down on the other side of the room away from everyone. Everyone, Hiei included, laughed.

"Yuske come back over here. You have to pick someone," Botan yelled while trying to gasp for air.

"Fine, I choose Yumi." he said as he made his way to the circle.

"Hmph. Okay, I choose..."

Do NOT say dare. Hiei told her.

She smiled sweetly at Hiei. "...dare." Hiei glared at her.

"Ah sweet, sweet revenge!" Yuske beamed. "I dare you be handcuffed to Hiei for the rest of the weekend!"

"WHAT!" Yumi and Hiei yelled.

"You made me kiss Keiko in front of everyone. This is revenge. Besides, YOU HAVE TO DO IT!" Yuske grinned as he watched Hiei fume even more than before.

"Yuske. You'll pay. Some way some how. You will p-a-y" Yumi threatened. She certaintly would have her hands full for the next couple of days. First her sister and now him.

It was Yuske's turn to gulp. "Okay now. Who'll be the next victim? How about Aya."

"Okay, dare?" Aya said. Yumi smiled wickedly.

"I dare you to A) be handcuffed to Kurama for the weekend and B) give me your crystal pendant for a week."

"What!" Aya demanded, holding her pendant tightly making her knuckles turn white. "You can't do that!"

"Oh yes I can. It's the rules of the game. You have to do as I say, now fork it over or else." Aya didn't move so, enforcing her threat, Yumi tackled her sister to the ground with as much force as the floor could take, which was pretty hard. Yumi got on top of her sister and took the pendant off without breaking it. Aya threw her sister off of her and started to punch her, trying to get her pendant back.

"Guys, I think this game is over..." Botan said as she tried to dodge the cloud of kicks and punches that was the two sisters.

"Well they can't go back on their dares!" Yuske yelled. "Everyone, we have to break them up!" he said charging in with Kuwabara and Kurama. After ten minutes of fighting, they finally got the two broke up, Yumi was victorious with her sister's pendant in her hand.

"Fine you can take it! But do not forget to give it BACK!"

"Hn...fine."

"Okay," Aya and Yumi shook hands.

"Umm guys. We've got to get back to our homes. It's already 10:30," Yukina said as politely as she could, so she and Keiko said their goodbyes. After they were gone Yuske got down to business.

"Before anyone goes to bed, I know four people who need some handcuffs..." Yuske grinned. "Botan, please get the 'special' handcuffs."

"What? Oh! okay." she said as she walked out of the room and came back with a silver suitcase. She took out what appeared to be spirit handcuffs. She fastened Hiei to Yumi and Kurama to Aya. "These are spirit cuffs," she explained. "You won't be able to get out of these in any way. Oh, don't look so miserable, it's only for the weekend." Botan smiled.

"Hn." Yumi and Hiei replied, glaring at Botan.

"Uhh… Goodnight guys!" she said running up to her room Yuske and Kuwabara close behind. They were afraid of what Hiei or Yumi might do to them.

"DON'T FORGET TO MAKE YUSKE AND KUWABARA SLEEP TOGETHER!" Aya yelled after them.

"So, how exactly are we going to make this work." she said turning to Yumi and Hiei.

"Beats me," Yumi responded.

"Oh I almost forgot!" they heard Botan say as she ran down the stairs. "Come on. Let's go up to your rooms." They all followed Botan up the stairs to the hallway adjoining their rooms.

"Okay Botan, what's up?" Aya asked voicing the question she knew was on everyone's mind. Botan pulled out a remote control from her pocket.

"When you guys need to get dressed, I'll push a button on this remote controller, which will temporarily set you free."

"How long do we have to change?" Kurama asked.

"Five minutes. And if you don't get back to each other in time, then you will get electrocuted by the bracelets until you join together again."

"Geez Botan, what do you use these things for!" Yumi asked, holding up her set of cuffs linked to Hiei.

"Well, they're part of Yuske's detective items. They're supposed to be for criminals."

"Oh."

"Well alrighty then! You all have five minutes to get ready."

"Right." everyone nodded.

"Ready set go!" Boton said as she pushed a button on the remote. Everyone flew into their rooms going to their dressers. They all got their night clothes on in less than three minutes. Hiei and Yumi were the first ones finished, seeing as how they were the fastest. Then Aya came, then Kurama. Yumi had on dark blue pajama pants and a black belly shirt, Aya had silver, silky pajamas on, Kurama had red pajamas on, and Hiei had on black pajama pants with a black muscle shirt-it didn't look as if he even changed really…

"Great timing everyone!" Botan cheered. "I wasn't sure if you would be able to make it!" Everyone stared at her.

"...Well, we did," Yumi stated. After she said that, the cuffs instantly linked together again with so much force that the pairs bumped into each other.

"Geez, Botan! How could you put these-these weapons on us!" Yumi scolded.

"Oh you'll be fine. Just don't try to get out of them!" she said making her way to the stairs. "Night everyone!" she turned and ran down the stairs with as much speed as possible. Aya yawned while Yumi secretly plotted how she could get the remote in her hands.

"Well, we should probably get to bed..." Aya yawned again. "Which bedroom do you want to sleep in Kurama?"

"I don't care. It's up to you," he said smiling a little.

"Okay, how about my room?" she said pulling him in and shutting the door. Inside, Kurama was surprised at how similar their rooms were. The only thing was, he noticed, was that his was darker and the ceilings were majorly different. Aya continued to drag him to her bed which she hopped into immediately.

"You must be pretty tired," Kurama said as he got beneath the covers too.

"Yeah…Don't go trying any funny stuff Kurama or I'll break your fingers off," she threatened. Kurama was surprised.

"Now where did that come from? You sounded exactly like your sister," he laughed.

"Oh, I guess I'm just grumpy when I don't get my beauty sleep!" she joked. Kurama laughed.

"Don't worry; I'll be the perfect gentleman."

"You...better...be..." she breathed as she fell asleep.

Kurama watched her fall to sleep, that's when he spotted the rose behind her ear. She still has it. He chuckled to himself. He slowly moved her dark locks from her face as he gently pulled the rose out. He set it on the end table beside the bed before he too went to sleep.

"Okay so whose room are we sleeping in?" Yumi asked, mostly to herself.

"Hn."

"My room it is then," not waiting for an answer she pulled Hiei down the hall to her room. Inside, she went over to her shelf that she had her trinkets she stole on, and put her sister's pendant in a small, golden box. She chanted beneath her breath putting her fingers to her mouth then to the box. A symbol appeared on the box that looked like a cat's eye.

"What did you just do?" Hiei asked. He looked at the box curiously.

"I put a seal on it. Nobody, except for me, will be able to open this box."

"Hn."

Yumi directed him to the bed, where she untied her hair from the ponytail she was wearing, and got beneath the covers. Hiei got into the bed as well.

"Do not try anything." Yumi threatened. Hiei stared at her.

"Why would I want to?" he asked, raising his eyebrow.

"Just don't." Hiei just smirked and held her gaze. Yumi punched Hiei lightly on the shoulder, with her free hand, making him loose the staring contest. She grinned.

"I win."

"Cheater." Yumi stuck her tongue out at him.

He smirked a bit. "Can I ask you something?" he asked.

"Hugh? What?"

"Why did you still say dare even though I told you not to?"

"Because, I knew what Yuske would do something to get back at you and I still needed to get my revenge, remember?" Hiei faintly recalled a moment when he made her mad at her house. He came to the conclusion that she definitely could hold a grudge.

"However, maybe I underestimated what Yuske would do..." Yumi said lifting their handcuffed hands. "Oh well, a small price to pay to get back at you," she laughed.

Hiei cocked his eyebrow. "Are you aware that you're crazy?"

Yumi sighed. "Whatever, goodnight Sunshine."

"Night Shorty," he replied tiredly. They both closed their eyes and tried to get some sleep despite the awkward situation.

I know, lameish chapter. Hopefully I have made it a little less confusing for you people who read this. Again, please read and review so I can get the inspiration I need! Seriously people. The only thing I run on is caffeine and reviews. Ha ha! Anywho, now that school is over I can write more! Mwahhahahahaha!
