Chapter Thirty-One: A Fight Already

"Rei, can I speak with you?" Kurama asked as he pulled a girl off his leg. Rei looked over at Hiei who was glaring at Kurama and the red head was returning the glare. Rei nodded and pulled Kurama out of the classroom before the two got into a fight. Once outside, she sighed and leaned against the wall. "You two are seriously going to kill each other someday."

"Why didn't you deny it?" Kurama asked her and she could hear a hint of anger in his voice. Rei blinked a few times then raised an eyebrow at him. She pushed herself off of the wall and stood before Kurama. "Deny what exactly?"

"Going to the dance with Hiei." Kurama said irritatly as if it was so obvious Rei should have known. Rei blinked a couple more times then laughed a little to herself. "Come on, Kurama, you're kidding, right? It's just a dance, who cares? He needed a date and it's better to go with someone you know than a stranger. Plus, he looked like he was going to kill someone soon."

"But you're MY girlfriend!" Kurama angrily yelled at her. Rei took a step back in sudden fear but then stood up to him, glaring. "What do you mean, Kurama? You're beginnning to forget that this whole relationship is FAKE!"

Their yells were beginning to catch the attention of students inside the nearby classrooms. Some of the doors opened and a few students stuck their heads out the doors along with the other five spirit detectives. It seemed that Rei was the only one who noticed the growing crowd. "Um, Shuichi..."

"Fake or not, you're still my girlfriend. You can't just go around and fling yourself at other guys!" Kurama yelled at her even more agered. Rei saw flecks of gold in his eyes but she could care less at the moment. For now she was just as mad as he was. "I didn't fling myself at any other guys! What the hell are you talking about!"

"Yes, you did! You were all over Hiei!" Kurama yelled. Some of the students that were watching gasped and looked at Rei then at Hiei. Rei scoffed and ressted a hand on her hip. "You know that's not true! This conversation is over, Shuichi!"

Rei turned to leave but Kurama quickly grabbed a hold of her wrist. She turned back to him, glaring but her eyes soon went wide in slight fear. Kurama's eye were no longer emerald green but they were now amber gold. Youko was pissed and he was pissed at her. "You're not going any where. You're mine and you'll do as I say."

"Shuichi, please. Calm down." Rei whispered to him. She heard the other students whispering around them and she glanced over at her sister. Kari and her exchanged looks. Kari nodded and she began to walk over towards them. "Okay, Shuichi, calm down. School is about to start. The two of you can settle this love tiff later."

"No." Kurama simply stated, as he stared at Rei. The female kitsune hanyou looked back over at him. His eyes hadn't changed back and that wasn't a good sign. Rei sighed inwardly before she placed both hands over Kurama's hand that was hold on to her. "Shuichi, please."

"Fine." Kurama said with a sigh. Some of the other students groaned and all the students who were watching went back to their classrooms. Kari quickly grabbed a hold of Rei and dragged her away from Kurama. The twins quickly took two seats by each other in the back of the classroom. Rei let out a sigh and relaxed in her chair. "Thanks, Kari. I have no clue what I would have done without you there."

"You would have had to deal with Youko, that's what. You should know that foxes are possessive, considering that you're one, at least part one." Kari said as Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Toga join them in the back. Kurama was no where in sight and neither was Hiei. Rei glared at her sister before resting her head on the desk. "What the hell have I gotten myself into?"

"Loads of shit, that's what. I thought that you were the smarter twin. You should have been able to tell that this was going to be bad from the vey beginning. You should have never agreed to go into a fake relationship with Kurama." Toga said as he gave Rei a stern look. Kari and Rei exchanged looks before staring at Toga. "Uh-oh, Toga's gone into fathering mode. Watch out for over-protective brother mode!"

Both twins laughed while Toga glared at them. Yusuke looked over at Kuwabara who was anxiously looking around the room. "What's your problem, Kuwabara?"

"Kurama and Shorty are missing." Kuwabara told them. The other four looked at him for a second before looking around the room to see that his words were true. Rei looked at the others with slight concern. "You don't think...?"

"It is Hiei and Kurama that we're talking about and they're mad at each other at the moment..."

"Oh, damn it!" Rei cursed before rushing out of the room with Kari, Yusuke, and Toga following. The four ran out in to the hallwasy but found nothing so they quickly headed outside to the school grounds. Rei stopped dead in her tracks when she saw the scene right outside the school. Hiei and Kurama were standing , covered in many wounds. They looked like they were about to start fighting again but Rei quickly moved to stop them. "What the hell do you two think you're doing!"

The two looked over at her, neither one making a move. Rei glared at them. "I know that the two of you guys don't like each other and that's none of buisness as to why but what the hell got you guys to fight like this! Look! You're both covered in wounds! All I got to say is that this better not be over the stupid little dance and who I'm going with!"

With that, Rei walked over to Kurama and looked over his wounds real quick. It looked like he was about to let Youko out. She glared at him and he quickly turned his rose whip back to a seed which he tucked into his hair. Rei rolled her eyes at him. "I'll talk to you later, Kurama. I have to go see if Hiei's okay as well."

Rei left Kurama and walked over to Hiei. Hiei had sheathed his katanta and was now just standing there, still glaring over at Kurama who was glaring right back at him. Rei shook her head at the two's childish antics. She placed a hand on to the Hiei's shoulder where he wasn't injured. "Are you okay, Hiei? Are you wounds that bad?"

Her eyes and her voice were so filled with concern that it threw Hiei off for a second. He glaredat her. He didn't need her stupid concern amoung the other human feelings that she offered at times. Hiei pushed her to the ground, sneering at her. "Keep away from me, Onna. I don't need your concern or anything else you have to offer. I only associate with you because that idiot in Spirit World is shortening my sentence. Once this mission is over, I better not see you again. If I do see you again, I'll kill you without a moment's hesitation."

With that, Hiei disappeared in a flash. Rei stayed on the ground, staring at the spot the fire appartion had stood in. The others walked over to her hesistantly. Kari approached her sister and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Rei? Are you okay?"

"NO! I'm not okay! Everything is so wrong here!" Rei exclaimed as she quickly got away from Kari while standing up on her on. She had a few tears in her eyes. The female kitsune hanyou turned and glared at Kurama. "This is your fault, Kurama! All of it, whether you would like to admit it or not! If it wasn't for your damned jealousy, we would all be in class, bored out of our minds and Hiei and I would still be on speaking terms! But of course not! You had to get jealous over some stupid little dance and start a fucking fight! GOD! I wished that we hadn't even returned to Japan! Life was a lot easier in America, away from all this drama!"

Rei turned on her heels and ran off the school grounds. The other four stood there for a second before Kari turned to Kurama. She just stared at him before slapping him across the face. Yusuke and Toga stared at the ookami hanyou with wide eyes while Kurama stood there with an emotionless mask on his face. Kari rested her hands on her hips. "She's right, you know! Kurama, you better go make up with her right now if you ever want to talk to her again. If you don't, she's going to hold a grudge against you and you don't want to have Rei hold a grudge against her. I would know, I'm her sister. Now get going!"

Kurama stood there for a moment before he too turned and ran in the direction Rei had taken. Kari sighed and shook her head. "Man, she gets into so much drama. Either her or I am going to die early from a heart attack someday. Jeesh."

"Come on, Kari. Let's get back to the classroom before we're late again." Toga said as him and Yusuke began to walk back into the school. All three of them sweatdropped when then bell sounded indicating that they were now late to their first hour class. "Too late."
