Chapter One: 1000 Words
"Remember, your mission is not to be friends with the enemy, but infiltrate them and take them out. Do you understand Eriunei?"
Clear as day, she thought standing in front of the class, dressed in the traditional Japanese school girl uniform. Black mini skirt that exposed her long, milky legs that was covered half way with long socks. A white sailor shirt, with a long tail in the back that was black and white attached to a black tie in the front. Wearing black Mary Jane, she looked like an average Japanese school girl. To complete off her looks, she wore her hair down as long black treads reached passed her butt. No make-up at all, exposing her natural beauty. With arms crossed, the teacher stood next to her with a smile on her lips. Extending her hand towards Eriunei, she spoke softly to the class of Room B-11
"Ohayou gozaimasu, class. This is our new student Eriunei Yamazaki. She from London, England and she decided to do the exchange student program for a year. Now, I want you to give her a warm Japanese welcome."
The class looked at her strangely, wondering if she really from England. Eriunei brow slightly rose as she stared back at them strangely. Hearing their thoughts telepathically, she understood their suspicious. She not to be trusted, but this is strictly business. Go in, infiltrate the victim, and kill him at any cost. Then leave this world and gain her freedom back. Inhaling deeply, she took a bow to the class as her black hair fell over her shoulder, giving her an erotic look. Look up slightly; she smiled seductively at them, giving the guys a wink. Hearing the guys within the class gasped and then grinned like idiots, the girls started to growl viciously. Smirking, she stood up straight, flipping her hair back as it flow all over the place.
"Ohayou gozaimasu, I'm glad to be here in Japan, I always wanted to come see this city. There's so many excited sites to see, maybe someone would like to give me a tour." She replied with a heavy British accent as the guys in the class raised their hands to volunteer.
The teacher groaned to herself, seeing we have another mauling. Grabbing the ruler off her desk, she smacked it against the board loudly causing all the commotion to stop, gaining control back. Faintly smiling, she continued. "It's nice to know that many appreciate Ms. Yamazaki. Now Ms. Yamazaki, you can sit anywhere you like. I don't care really as long as I can get on with the lesson."
Eriunei nodded as she looked around the classroom, for a vacant seat. Seeing one in the back of the class, in the left corner it was next to a boy with bright, unruly red hair as the color of flames and soft emerald green eyes that shined as the sun hit them. He was reading a very interesting book, ignoring the fact that she was even in the room. Smiling, she found her second target and if she becomes acquainted with him, then he'll lead her to target one. Walking towards the back, she walked passed the role of guys as they whistled and made cat calls as she passed. Growling lowly, why couldn't she kill off the weaker prey instead? Turning passed the last desk; she came to her chair, dropping her backpack on it. Pulling out the chair, she took her seat, turning around to greet him. Emerald eyes looked up from his book to see crimson ones looking at him, with a warm smile placed on cherry red lips. Faintly smiling, he couldn't help but blush slightly at her beauty.
Eriunei notice how his gaze changed from frank to an astonish stare. Smirking, that's what she wanted for him to do, gaze at her beauty. Extending her hand, her black fingernail glisten in the light, reflecting off a transitional color of blood red. "Konnichi wa, my name is Eriunei. What is your name?" she softly asked as her voice seems to linger seductively.
Snapping out of his daze, he grabbed her hand, giving it a firm but gently shake. "I'm sorry, my name is Shuichi Minamino. Do you speak Japanese?"
Eriunei smile widen as she nodded. "A little, but not enough to get me around. I just moved to Tokyo two weeks ago. Anyways, nice to meet you. I have we could . . . get really acquainted." She whispered softly, hearing the teacher telling them to be quiet. Laughing softly, she let go of his hand. Giving him a little wave, she turned around telling the teacher sorry for her rude behavior in Japanese.
Shuichi smiled as he shook his head. Very polite for someone who doesn't speak Japanese very well. Sighing to himself, he continued to stare at the back of her head, watching her play with her long black hair that lay out evenly. There's something about her . . . she's not normal another voice replied, causing him to sigh. Ignoring the suspicion, he replied back.
Why, because for once she's not another assassin who trying to kill us? Why can't you just let this one go for a chance, Youko? I don't feel any demonic powers from her.
I just don't know, I just have a feeling alright. Please, just be careful with this one. She's not like—
Do not mention her name again, do you hear me! That was the past and it will remain in the past.
Eriunei sat there silently as she continued to twist her hair around her fingers. Just hearing the interesting conversation between Shuichi and his alter ego. Grinning, she knew she found the right target and all she has to do if put her plan into play.
I know that you're hiding things
Using gentle words to shelter me
Your words were like a dream
But dreams could never fool me
Not that easily
I acted so distant then
Didn't say goodbye before you left
But I was listening
You'll fight your battles far from me
Far too easily
"Save your tears cause I'll come back"
I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door
But still I swore
To hide the pain when I turn back the pages
Shouting might have been the answer
What if I'd cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart
Though a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
Crossing over the time and distance holding you
Suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words
One thousand confessions
Will cradle you
Making all of the pain you feel seem far away
They'll hold you forever
The lunch bell rung as the students left the class room to go to their favorite spots along the campus. Shuichi walked out of the building as he looked around. Seeing his usually spot near the cherry tree, he walked over there. Everything seemed pretty normal today. The new girl Eriunei has all his classes and in every one she sits directly in front of him. Yet in the other classes, she doesn't really speak much and she ignores the other who contently making cat calls and pass her letters. And every time she gets them, she just smirked and crumples them up. Realizing that he was at the cherry tree, he took his seat on the grass as he propped his backpack on the tree root. Opening it, he took out the same book he was reading, followed by a sandwich. Taking a bite out of his sandwich, he enjoyed the rest of the day until last period which was science.
Without acknowledgement, Eriunei sat on the third tree branch from the top as she watched him casually. Leaning her back against the tree trunk, she didn't know why her master wanted her to kill him? He doesn't seem like the type to kill, he seems too human. Sighing deeply, she reached into her pocket, pulling out a walkman with a headset. Placing it over her head, she turned it on. A low static sound appeared as a dark voice spoke to her. Listening carefully, it was her orders for tonight's mission.
Listen carefully; tonight you will be on watch. Rumors were heard that Hiei is in the Ningen world and knows that you are here. Now, you must be out of site and untraceable. Back at your house is a box and within that box is all the stuff you need. A new katana, night vision goggle, cloaking device, and a new toy that you will enjoy. Now remember, you must not be seen . . . be careful though, do not let your aura reach out pass five meters of your detection spot. That is all until tomorrow. Signing out
Sighing deeply, she shook her head. A small smile appeared on her lips when he said a 'new toy'. Closing her eyes, she placed her arms behind her head as she listened to nature and the people outside. Everything is going to go as plan and all she has to do is watch him for a week and then go in for the kill. Laughing to herself, she couldn't believe that she's going to do this and then . . . go after the pretty red head below her.
"Eriunei? What are you doing in a tree and how did you get up there?" Shuichi asked her, as crimson eyes popped opened.
Looking down, she saw emerald eyes looking at her with slight confusion. Cursing loudly, she felt herself losing balance on the branch as her body fell forward. Falling off the branch, she let out a startled scream as she came down. "OH SHIT!" she shouted as she covered her face with her arms and brought her legs up, rolling into a ball.
Shuichi cursed as he moved to the side. Extending his arms out, he watched as leaves and flowers fell from the tree. Eriunei made it past the last layer as she let out another terrified scream. Coming down, she knew that she would be able to heal, but this isn't the time to do. And then, strong arms wrapped around her, catching her before she hit the ground. Feeling them, she brought her arms down, she looked up to see Shuichi looking down at her, half worried and half relieved. Bring her arm to her head, she felt kind of faint as she laid there within his arms. Her heart continued to quicken as she closed her eyes. Shuichi continued to hold her in his arms as if it seemed right.
"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" he questioned her as she slightly opened her eyes.
Nodding, she was alright. The only thing hurting right now was her pride. "I'm alright . . . thank you though." She replied softly, moving to get out of his arms as quickly as possible. She just didn't feel right being in them.
Seeing that she wanted to get out, he lowered his arms so she could move. Watching her slide out and stand on her own two feet, he smiled. "Are you sure you are alright? I could take you to the nurse's office to make sure nothing is—" He was cut off by her two fingers placed on his lips.
Eriunei smiled at him, knowing that she shouldn't get too close to the enemy or things are bound to get mixed up. "No. . .I'm fine. Look, I have to go, see you in science." She quickly retaliates, drawing back her fingers and turning away. Running quickly, her walkman dropped out of her pocket and onto the ground.
About to call her, he stopped when he saw something on the ground. Bending down and picking it up. Holding it within his hand, he knew it didn't belong to him. "I must be Eriunei's; I'll have to give it back to her in science." He said to himself.
I don't know . . . there's still something wrong with this picture. Why was she up in a tree? How did she get up there? There's no way she could get up there, the tree is—
"Shut up Youko, I'm not in the mood for your theories!"
Look, I'm warning you, do not fall too deep for this girl. She's bad trouble, you hear me. She's doesn't seem right, she's not human at all!
Either am I . . .
"Alright, this is the last class for the day and I'm ready to get the hell out of here. I'm going to make this quick and I expect all you miscreants to listen. Today I'll be assigning each and every one of you a project, which is worth seventy-five percent of you grade this year. I'll be putting you into—"
The teacher was cut off short by the classroom door bursting open and Eriunei walking in. Breathing heavily, she's been running around the school all lunch, hiding from lingering demons. Taking a deep breath, she finally made it to science class. Turning away from the door, she saw angry eyes looking at her, with impatience. Laughing nervously, she waved to him hearing the teacher growl. Bowing, god this was a horrible day can it get any worse.
"Zannen desu, Jui-sensei. I couldn't find my way around the school. I'm new here and I got lost." She replied, hearing him grunt.
Looking at her, he cursed in his head. Hearing his thoughts, she let out a low growl, reminding herself to kill him after the mission was done. Grinning evilly, he just came up with an idea. "It's alright, Yamazaki-san, you just arrived in time. I'm assigning partners for this project and you just volunteered to be the first victim—oh I mean student. Now let's see . . . who could I partner the tramp—oh I mean, new exchange student. Oh, how about Shuichi. He's smart and you might need his with this project seeing that you don't speak Japanese very well."
Shocked, Eriunei turned toward the crowd, seeing him sitting there looking at her at the same time. Feeling the time to scream, she did as her eyes turned back to the teacher. "Jui-sensei, couldn't you pair me up with someone else?" she asked, seeing the teacher brow raise, apprehensively.
"What's the matter? I don't see anything wrong with Minamino-san? Besides, you can't choose a girl partner because this is an opposite sex project, which two lovely parents will be taking care of a baby."
Feeling faint, Eriunei stumbled backwards, hitting her back against the door. Her whole face turned red as she stammered on her words. "B-baby? Are you implying that we . . . oh my god are you sick? I'm not getting jiggle with him; I'm in high school, you prick!" she shouted, causing everyone to gasp.
Jui-sensei growled, hearing how idiotic she sound just now. "You stupid idiot, it's a doll in which you two take care of for a whole week."
Eriunei glared at him, pushing herself off the door. How dare he call her an idiot! Just as she was about to say something, Shuichi appeared next to her, stopping her by covering her mouth. Gasping, she looked at him as if he was stupid or something. Shuichi looked at her then at the teacher with a smile on his lips. "Now, you didn't have to call her names, she's new and doesn't understand the Japanese culture. We'll do the project together." He spoke for the both of them as Eriunei gasped.
Pushing his hand off her mouth, her eyes harden looking between them. "You know what; you can shove this project up your asses for all I care! I'm out of here!" she snapped, turning towards the door and walking out.
Turning to the door, Shuichi opened his mouth to call to her, but she was long gone. Groaning, he turned to his teacher with harden eyes. "You went to far Jui-sensei." He replied tediously, going after Eriunei.
Coming into the room with all the lockers, Eriunei stopped short taking a break. Leaning against a group of locker, she slid down as she touched the floor. Extending on leg out and bring the other close to her chest, she rest her arms on them as she brought her head back. Closing her eyes, she felt weak at this very moment and has been for the last two weeks. Not sure what's wrong with her, she didn't have time to figure out. Taking a deep breath, her body trembled slightly with chills as they continued to run down her body. Sweat materialized on her forehead as it slid down her face, dripping onto her shirt. Feeling herself calm down she needed to get home tonight to do her job before her master gets angry. Snapping out of her thoughts for this evening, she heard footsteps approached her causing her eyes to open. Looking, she saw Shuichi coming towards her, slowly and steadily. Chuckling, she wasn't going to hurt him, why be afraid.
"Zannen desu. I didn't mean to embarrass you like that. I'm British, we are arrogant bastards." She replied, seeing him stop.
Shuichi looked at her, seeing her eyes break off their connection and looked somewhere else. Faintly smiling, he dug into his pocket, pulling out her walkman. "It's alright, I was as shock as you. But I don't mind . . . it might be fun and it is health time. You drop this outside after our little rendezvous at lunch. I hope it isn't broken."
Gasping lightly, how could she be stupid! Taking it from him, she thanked him silently. "No it shouldn't be. This is the tenth one I had this month." She bluntly said, feeling rather uncomfortable.
Seeing how she felt, he nodded. "I see . . . well I have to get back to class and explain the Jui-sensei that you are alright. See you later I guess?"
"Yeah . . . see you later. Wait, since we have to do this project, is there any other name I can call you by instead of Shuichi?"
Thinking for a while, he nodded. "Yeah . . . you can call me Kurama. My friends call me that. And what about you?"
Also thinking, what was the name her mother use to call her all the time. Chuckling at that silly thought, she replied. "Noodle . . . that what my mother use to call me when I was younger."
Nodding again, he gave her a warm smile. "Noodle . . . it fits you. Well, see you later . . . Noodle."
Opening her mouth to say something, she couldn't speak. Placing her hands over her mouth, why does she feel so weird right now? When he said her name, it felt almost right, but it was wrong. Closing her eyes, she knew one thing . . . she could not kill him, but if she doesn't then . . . her mother and the others will die in her place. . .
Eriunei walked inside of her small one bedroom/bath apartment. Inhaling deeply, she had a hard day and all she wanted to do right now is sleep. Feeling weaker than earlier, she knew something wasn't right and she would have to get check out eventually. Seeing that the whole place was completely dark, she didn't mind. Dropping her keys on the side table, she kicked off her shoes and walked towards her living room. Slugging her backpack over her shoulders, she hummed a little folktale song as she entered though another door. Stopping short, she looked around to see that her living room has been invaded and it look like a freaking church. Everywhere was candles as they were lit. Going along her cherry oak coffee table, long the black marble floor and up the marble banister of the fireplace. Dropping her backpack on the floor, she wondered what all of this was for.
"Think of it as a welcome home present, milady." A dark voice said from behind her as she turned around, ready to strike.
Crimson eyes harden, and then soften to see who it was. Dropping her guard, she sighed deeply. "What the hell are you doing here, Takashi?" she asked, crossing her arms.
Smiling at her, he couldn't come see her. Stepping closer to her, he stood directly in front. Placing his arms around her tiny waist, he drew her closer. Resting his forehead against hers, he inhaled her scent and grinned. "You smell just like the Sakura blossoms. I don't see you taking a bath with something that smells so sweet." He replied, seeing her smile.
Dropping her arms to her side, she felt kind of safe within his arms, even though she didn't want to. "I had an accident today at school. Yet, I did find my second primary target. There's just something about him I don't see dangerous."
"What is that?"
Sighing again, she couldn't just say what she wanted to say. "He's too human to harm anyone. I don't feel any demonic powers from him, are you sure we don't have the wrong person."
Giving her a strange look, he grinned at her knowing what the problem. "Don't tell me . . . you are falling for his charms? The thief has stolen your heart and soul . . . cute Eriunei." He chuckled at her seeing her eyes harden.
Growling lowly, once again her fangs were bared and they spoke 'death'. "No!" she barked, continuing to growl. "I'm just saying he's not even worth killing! I don't sense anything dangerous from him."
Bring his claws underneath her chin; he raised her face higher to meet his. Seeing that she was serious, he knows what she truly felt. Moving in closer, his lips were mere inches from hers. Breathing, his breath mixed with hers, as he spoke softly to her. "Good . . . I don't want to lose you to some kitsune, you hear me. You are mines and no one else, do you hear me?"
"Yes . . . I understand." She whispered as her eyes slightly closed to get ready to take his kiss.
Grinning again, he nodded. "Good, that's what I wanted you to say." With that, his lips covered hers as they shared a lover's kiss once again. . .
The dream isn't over yet
Though I often say I can't forget
I still relive that day
"You've been there with me all the way"
I still hear you say
"Wait for me I'll write you letters"
I could see how you stammered with your eyes to the floor
But still I swore to hide the doubt
When I turn back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait
But now I'm strong enough to know it's not too late
Cause a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They'll fly to you
Even though we can't see I know they're reaching you
Suspended on silver wings
Oh a thousand words
One thousand embraces
Will cradle you
Making all of your weary days seem far away
They'll hold you forever
Oh a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
They'll carry you home and back into my arms
Suspended on silver wings ohhh
And a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They'll cradle you
Turning all of the lonely years to only days
They'll hold you forever
"So . . . who was the new girl you were talking to today at your school, Kurama?"
Stop walking, Kurama turned around to see Hiei standing behind him as he leaned against the truck of a Liquid Auburn tree. Smiling, he could sense the jealousy from him, but didn't let him know. Hiei looked at him, wondering what the hell he was smiling about. Pushing off the truck, he just stood there with his arms crossed and crimson eyes hard. Swing his backpack over his shoulders, Hiei don't have to watch him, he had enough people watching him enough.
"Her name is Eriunei Yamazaki. She's new to Japan . . . why, do you have second thoughts about her also?" he questioned, seeing Hiei turn his eyes away.
Thinking of a good excuse, he inhaled deeply. "I just don't trust her. She gives off a dark aura. She's not human . . . I think she's demon."
"Really . . . then you agree with me, Hiei." Another voice replied as Hiei turned to see the fox demon standing in the place where Kurama once stood. Staring at the silver haired, golden eyed kitsune, then he knew he wasn't alone.
Hiei nodded, knowing that Youko would sense something from her. "At least you know what are we going to do about it?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Youko looked at him, unsure. "He won't listen to me. I've tired to tell him, but he keeps telling me that she's just a normal human. I don't know, but she has some way to cloak her aura for him not to notice."
"Then she must be a demon. Listen, keep a close eye on her and make sure she's not doing anything to Kurama. As we both know, he'll end up getting hurt like last time and we can't have that happening again."
"I agree . . . Yomiko wasn't your typical demon. She use to work with Takashi, but I end up killing her."
"Then don't hesitate to kill this one, either. Look, I'm going to dig some dirt on this Eriunei character, you just stay watch and tell me if you see anything."
"Alright . . ."
