Chapter 2: Twins

"Hey, Rai, Yasu! Did you hear about the new student that's coming in tomorrow?" Kuwabara called to the two girls standing outside the school gates. Yusuke was with him.

Rai turned to face him. "No, I haven't. Have you, Yasu?"

"No, and I don't care."

Rai ignored the last part of the comment.

A girlish squeal interrupted them. Everyone turned to see what the problem was. They weren't ready to deal with what faced them then.

A mob of girls was surrounding a single guy. It was funny how you just barely his head above the mob. Rai wanted to throw up. Another guy all the girls decide to fawn over. Suddenly a hand placed itself on her shoulder. She just about jumped out of her skin.

"Just as jumpy as ever I see." She heard a familiar chuckle behind her. She whirled around and nearly squealed like the other girl did earlier. The familiar face, thedark tenor voice, every seeable feature. She gave the owner of them all a gigantic bear hug. A gasp could be heard from the mob of girls.

"I need to be able to breathe, Rai." The tall boy gave a weak smile. He was fairly tall, not quite as much as Kuwabara, and was rather handsome as well. He had dark hair that had a bluish tint to it in the light that covered one of his eyes, shocking blue eyes, and wore a white jacket with a black muscle shirt and black pants.

"Sorry. It's just that I'm so glad to see you again! It feels like it's been forever!" Rai lightened her grip hold on the boy.

Yusuke and Kuwabara looked very confused while Yasu simply stood there. She had seen this boy a couple times, but did not know him very well.

"Did something happen between you and Hiei, Rai?" Kuwabara asked, very much confused. "I thought you liked him."

Rai froze. She turned to the tall boy and made the 'kill' gesture, moving her hand very quickly back and forth across her neck. "X-nay on Iei-hay!"

"Who's Hiei?" The boy asked him. He looked at Kuwabara with an interested look on his face.

"Hiei is Rai's boyfriend. Who are you?" A loud smack could be heard as Rai slapped her forehead in exasperation that Kuwabara actually had the stupidity to tell him how close Hiei was to her.

"I'm her brother, Seishou." The dark hair boy informed them. Some sighs of relief could be heard from the crowd.

Kuwabara's face dropped when he realized what he had done. "Oops."

"While you're asleep, Kuwabara, while you're asleep." Rai threatened in a muttering voice. She was also making small, strangling gestures as well. She quickly calmed down and changed the subject. "So, brother dear, what are you doing in this area? I thought you didn't like traveling this way."

"I don't. I just wanted to visit my twin sister and spend time with her." He smiled gently.

That answer didn't quite click right in Rai's mind. There was something odd about it. She shrugged it off. She didn't care right now. All that mattered was that her brother was here with her.

She gasped. "I've forgotten my manners! Seishou, these are my friends Yusuke Urameshi, Kazuma Kuwabara, and I believe you should remember Yasu Gihiratou." She said pointing to each of them in turn.

Seishou had a surprised expression when she had mentioned the two boys' names. He then turned to regard Yasu. "Yes, I remember her."

"Why don't we go to our house, without the little fan club over there? I'd prefer not to hang around here with them drooling over my brother." Rai suggested walking away. Everyone agreed. Especially Yasu. She despised those pathetic things.

"Hang on a second. Did you say twin sister? How come you don't look alike?" Yusuke asked. A brand new confused look had overtaken his features.

"Just because we're twins, doesn't mean we're identical. It's kind of like this. Seishou is negative energy and I'm positive energy. We're just about complete opposites. Just like I'm happy and social, while he's on the grumpier and anti-social. To be honest, Seishou is an odd-ball."

"Hey. I'm standing right here." Seishou interrupted Rai.

"I didn't mean it like that! Anyways, negative energy demons aren't exactly very common. I think there are only about thirty of them at this current moment. Since we were born at the same time, we became opposites. That's why I call him odd. The only thing that we really have in common is our eyes. They're the exact same."

Kuwabara squinted at Seishou. "Really? It's hard to tell. You can only see one of his eyes."

Everyone's face fell at this remark. Seishou looked like he was about ready to give Kuwabara a sound whack over the head. Rai shook her head.

"Well, he does happen to like that hair cut. But whatever. To each their own, Kuwabara. Just like Yasu may like to have her hair in a ponytail, and I like to leave my hair down." Rai commented.

"I believe we've been over this before Rai. The ponytail keeps my hair out of my way."

"Then why don't you cut it?"

"I don't see your point and I don't want to."

"What are you two arguing about this time?" A deep, familiar voice came from ahead of them. The two girls looked away from each other and saw two familiar faces. A red haired, green eyed young man with a friendly look on his face, and a shorter, black haired, crimson eyed young man with a bit of a hostile look.

Yay! Seishou is finally in! Kinda like a taller Hiei, except very different hair styles. I always imagine Seishou's voice like Seto Kaiba's from Yu-Gi-Oh! in the American version.(Or if you haven't watched it, like Koenma's voice from the movie with Kuronue(Done by the same guy)in it. I love Eric Stuart's voice!)
