HEY! CrashedmyHarley here! I hope you find this story pleasurable. Heh, I used a big word. This is taking the seventh spot on my story list in place of Stalked which wasn't doing to well... Anywho, enjoy!

Chapter 1:

A young girl walked through the forest slowly, as if she'd just been beaten to near death in a battle. Her extremely long, thin, black hair swayed in the natural pulse of her walking. Her cloak that was at least three feet too long for her trailed behind her, gathering leaves and brush as she walked on. Her crimson eyes looked dazed. She seemed ready to collapse at any moment. Birds fled from their posts on the branches of the trees as she passed them.

Yusuke crossed his arms infront of his face, blocking Kurama's punch. Kurama threw a kick at him. It came in contact with his side as Yusuke jumped backwards, avoiding the full power of the kick. It still hurt though. Kurama collapsed onto the ground, panting heavily.

"You tired?" Yusuke asked as he walked over to the exhausted red-head. Kurama gave a small smile.

"Very," he replied quietly.

"HA! I'm not!"

"Well, then you're lucky." Yusuke leaned down next to Kurama and wrapped his arm around his waist, helping him up. Both of their heads turned behind them as a sudden crunch was brought to their ears. A small girl stood there. Her head slowly rose to look at them.

"I'm looking for a man named Hiei," she muttered before falling face first into the dirt.

A few hours later:

"Why'd ya think she was lookin for shorty, huh?" Kuwabara asked as he stared at the small girl laying on the couch in Genkai's temple. Kurama shrugged.

"She looks like him though," he said as he sipped on a cup of tea. The girl stirred in her sleep slightly. "She was in pretty bad shape, too." The girl's red eyes blinked open as she moaned. She slowly sat up and rubbed the back of her neck before turning to Kurama and Kuwabara. She stared at them for a moment.

"Hey," Kuwabara said quietly.

"Are you alright Miss?"

"Is this… Genkai's temple?" she asked quietly. She must have still been very exhausted.

"Yes, it is."

"I'm looking for a man-."

"We know. You're looking for Hiei." Shock spread over the girl's face.

"You said so before you fainted." She nodded.

"He ain't here right now," Kuwabara informed her. Her head drooped.

"May I offer you a bath?" Kurama asked. She gave him an odd look. "You look as though you have been through quite a lot."

"Thank you," she muttered. She and Kurama stood and Kurama showed her the washroom. She turned the faucet and warm water poured out. She peeled off her tattered clothing, revealing bruises and lacerations decorating her entire body. The largest bruise was across her back and spread over her chest. Her thin, filthy, black hair tumbled down her back and down to her calves. She slowly slid into the warm bath, all of her muscles relaxing.

"Well?" Yusuke asked in the entrance to the temple. Kayko stood next to him, a dress laying in her arms.

"She woke up," Kuwabara informed him.

"She's taking a bath," Kurama said, sitting down on the couch once more and picking up his tea cup to take another sip.

"She can wear this," Kayko said, holding up a small, blue dress much like the one she was wearing. Hers was a sleeveless pink dress with a white shirt underneath. The dress she was holding was sleeveless aswell, but there was no white shirt underneath and there was a brown belt sewed onto the waist.

"I'm sure she'd appreciate it Kayko," Kurama said mid-sip.

"What's her name?"

"She hasn't said."

"But, she wants to see Hiei," Yusuke said.

"Why?"

"Dunno." Kayko folded the dress back over her arm and walked over to the hall entrance.

"I think I'll go give this to her." The guys nodded as she started down the hall. She knocked on the washroom door as it came in sight. The girl jumped a little as Kayko opened the door a crack. "I have some clean clothes for you to wear." She held up the dress before setting it on the counter.

"Thank you," the girl muttered. Kayko smiled at her, then turned to the door.

"Oh! We're going to have dinner soon. Are you hungry?" The girl blushed and nodded her head. "Alright. I'll get a plate for you. What is your name, by the way?"

"Jade." Kayko smiled happily.

"Alright, Jade." Kayko shut the door then skipped down the hallway.

"What's got you so giddy?" Yusuke asked his girlfriend as she walked over to the cabinet, pulling out a plate and humming.

"She's staying for dinner. And her name is Jade," Kayko said, placing a plate down on the table for Jade.

"Who is?" Genkai asked with Yukina at her side. Yukina walked over to the island in the kitchen and set down a bag of groceries.

"This girl," Yusuke began. "Kurama and I were sparring and were getting ready to come in when she just showed up, said she was lookin for Hiei, and fainted. Then we brought her in."

"Odd."

"No kiddin. She's in the tub right now." Genkai raised and eyebrow.

"Why?"

"She was filthy. Plus, she looked tired," Kurama said quickly. They heard the door open from the bathroom and wait with satiated breath as she walked down the hallway wearing the blue dress. Her hair was still wet though. Her long bangs were pulled behind her ears as she walked shyly to the middle of the room. Kayko walked over to her.

"Jade," Kayko said. "This is Master Genkai." She motioned towards the small woman. Jade knelt down and bowed her head.

"Hello Master Genkai," she said while bowing.

"Get up child. Don't bow to me ever again. No one else does," Genkai said, walking over to the island and pulled out a drawer. She walked back over to Jade after shutting the drawer and held out a rubber band. Jade blinked at it, still kneeling. "For your hair." Jade reached out for it and took it. She pulled her thin, black hair up into a high pony tail, although her hair still came to knees. She then decided a bun would be better.

After she was done fiddling with her hair, Jade was ready to stand, by Genkai pushed her back down. Genkai began studying her face carefully as if looking for something very important. Then she pulled away.

"Are you related to Hiei?" Genkai asked her. Jade lowered her head and nodded.

"I believe he is my father." Suddenly, anyone who was sitting on the couch fell off it. Yukina almost fell over with a knife in her hands while she was chopping up her vegetables. Kayko had to steady herself on the wall. Genkai was the only one who was not falling over or looking dead. She merely raised an eyebrow.

"Well, he will be here in time for dinner."

Around dinner:

Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Jade all sat on the couch watching infomercials. Yusuke picked up the remote and flipped to MTV just as a music video was starting. It was Breaking The Habit by Linkin Park. Jade tilted her head to the side. She blinked her crimson eyes a few times, then, reluctantly, began bobbing her head to the music. Yusuke jumped up on the coffee table and began singing into the remote and Kuwabara showed his sudden mastery of the air guitar. Jade chuckled at the sight. Kayko, on the other hand, got very agitated and began yelling. Yusuke mock cowered in fear which got Kayko's blood pressure rising even more. This made Jade laugh harder. Kayko then turned to Kuwabara and told him that the air guitar is not a real musical instrument and mastering it is not a grand feat. He pretended to sob. Jade was now laughing so hard that her face turned red and her laughs could no longer be heard as she did not have enough air in her lungs to produce a sound. (Has that ever happened to you?) She then began gasping for air.

"Are you alright, Jade?" Kayko concernedly asked. Jade nodded, still half laughing, half gasping for air. She patted her heart as she got her laughing fit under control.

"I haven't laughed like that in a long time…" she sighed. Yukina walked over to the four of them and sat down on the couch next to Jade.

"So," Yukina started. "You are Jade?"

"Yes."

"Hello, I am Yukina." Yukina held out her hand for Jade to shake it. She did. "So… you are my niece?" Jade's face froze.

"Huh?"

"Well, Hiei is my brother, so if you are his daughter, then that makes you my niece." Jade blinked twice, then curled her lip up.

"Aunt Yukina?" Yukina let out a small laugh.

"That'll take some time to get used to…" She rose from the couch and walked back over to her cooking, stirring the soup she was making. "You do look a lot like him."

"I do?"

"Yes. I suppose, then, you look like me too, but mainly him because of your hair color."

"What?"

"We are twins."

"Oh." Yukina took a sip of the soup to taste. She nodded.

"Dinner is ready!" Suddenly, everyone appeared at the table. Jade calmly took a seat next to Yukina. She stared across from her where there was an empty spot.

"Odd," Kurama started, looking at the same empty spot. "He's not here yet."

"He's probably asleep in a tree," Kuwabara commented. Yusuke scoffed.

"Whatever, it's not like he hasn't done this before. LET'S EAT!" Kuwabara and Yusuke began slurping up the soup then scrambling back over to the pot for more. Everyone else began calmly eating their soup. By the time everyone was done Yusuke and Kuwabara had eaten enough to make their stomachs expand beyond that of a woman pregnant with quintuplets. Jade had eaten three bowels while everyone else had one. Hiei was still no where to be found.

"He will be here," Kurama reassured Jade as she lowered her head while watching tv again. She looked up at him and nodded, returning her gaze to the tv. Some idiot was setting himself on fire over and over again. It was quite entertaining. Every few minutes or so, Jade let out a small, yet still audible yawn. Eventually, Kurama suggested that she go to bed.

"Will you wake me when he comes?" Jade asked Kurama. Kurama nodded and closed the door to the room Jade was sleeping in. After a few hours, Genkai decided to hit the sack, as did Yukina. The hour after that, Kayko realized how late it was and hurried home, forcing Yusuke to come with her. Still, there had been no hide, nor hair of Hiei. About two hours later, Shizuru showed up to bring Kuwabara home. Still, there was no Hiei. A few hours later, Kurama gave up on waiting for him and headed home.

About an hour and a half after Kurama had left, Hiei flitted into the temple and walked over to the fridge where Yukina had managed to hide a bowl of soup for him. He heated it up using the microwave which he had dreaded so deeply. He then ate it very quickly, about as fast as Yusuke and Kuwabara usual engulf their food, scorching the roof of his mouth because he had heated it up a little too much. He didn't particularly care though. He cleaned up the small mess he made and walked down the hall to his bedroom and fell asleep.

CrashedmyHarley signing off! Soooo? This idea sorta came to me while I was drawing. A girl who looked a little too much like Hiei surrounded by green fire wearing a tattered blue cloak. Yeah… REVIEW PLZ!
