They were still at the hot springs. Koenma had congratulated them for catching Kei, but would of preferred him alive.
Ayame was sitting on a shelf listening to 'Vidoll' on her walkman, she went back to the castle type place to find her clothes earlier and was wearing the clothes she had on before she got put in a trance, with her stuffed panda Yuki, keeping her eye on the spiky headed kajihenge. Said youkai was polishing and sharpening his katana in the corner of the room on the floor seeing as there wasn't a windowsill.
Ayame suddenly pounced from where she was, across the room, and onto the porch landing on Kurama. She then got off of him and walked back to the shelf with something stuffed in her mouth. Everyone stared at her like she'd gone crazy. The cat girl spat a bird out of her mouth and put it down on the shelf while continuing to poke it. As soon as it woke up and started to fly out the room, Ayame took her mp3 off and left it with her panda, then started to chase the bird, everyone, except Miirei and Hiei, watched the cat girl jump around after the small white bird, then looked to Miirei.
''She's bored,'' Miirei said, answering their questioning stares.
At dinner time, some hostess' in Kimonos came and led them to a large room with a table, which had loads of food on. The Yuu yuu gang sat down on some cushions. Yuusuke and Kuwabara looked at the food hungrily, but got whacked on the hand with a spoon by Miirei anytime they made a wrong move.
Yuusuke quickly whispered something to Kuwabara, the taller orange haired boy the nodded in conformation. They then both suddenly reached their hands out to opposite ends of the table. Miirei, in a lightning fast movement smacked them both with the back of the spoon, making them both yelp and jump in pain.
While they were all eating, Miirei noticed Ayame. She hadn't eaten anything, and was absorbed in her thoughts, Miirei reached her chopsticks out and picked up a piece of sliced up salmon and popped it into her mouth, chewing it while continuing to think about the neko-jin.
''Why aren't you eating?'' Miirei asked once she'd finished her mouthful.
''No real reason, I'm just kinda' full,'' Ayame replied, not taking her gaze off the table.
''How can ya' be full?... you ain't eat'n anythin'.'' Kuwabara said in between mouthfuls of rice.
''Where did you get that idea?'' Ayame asked mysteriously with a smirk.
Kuwabara stopped eating to look at her, he then opened his mouth, and closed it again, he then opened it again, and closed it again. He continued to think for a moment before a sick look came over his face, he then pushed his bowl away.
''Did ya' eat those birds?'' Kuwabara asked, hoping she said no.
''Hn.'' the two toned girl replied knowing what he was thinking, ''How is it any different then you eating fish, beef, or any other meat?''
''But...'' Kuwabara argued trying to think of a reason.
''Besides, I don't know what's happened to the meat here,'' Ayame said breaking her contact with the table, and staring at the wall, ''People could have poisoned the meat or anything,''
A woman in a kimono then came in and kneeled before them, ''How is the food?"
''It's very nice,'' Kurama said with a smile making the woman's face light up, she turned her attention to Kurama completely, ignoring anyone else's words of praise.
''Are you comfortable enough sir?'' The female youkai said walking over and kneeling down next to the red head, ''I could get you some more cushions if you like?''
''Uh, no, I'm fine, thank you very much,'' Kurama said with a smile and a sweatdrop.
''Damn Kurama, you're like a female magnet, I wonder if women would prefer Youko or Kurama better?'' Ayame mused aloud, grinning cockily at the red head.
''Who do you prefer? You're a woman,'' Yusuke said with mirth in his voice.
''Don't insult me like that,'' Ayame said hissing then turning her nose up. ''I might of unfortunately been born a female, but I'm still more manly then you,''
''That's what you think.'' Yusuke said doing a manly pose with his chest out. ''Kurama might be a female magnet, but how come he still hasn't attracted you or Miirei?''
''Some of us can hide our feelings better then others,'' Ayame said to Miirei, ''And I don't lust over guys,'' Ayame said turning back to Yusuke who had started to inhale more food.
''So you 'lust' over girls then?'' Yusuke said with a smirk.
''I'm not going to dignify that with a comment,''
''Oh yes!'' the woman that had been trying to flirt with Kurama said jumping up'' I forgot, we have some entertainment for you tonight,''
Yuusuke started to smirk, Ayame watched him getting creeped out, he then broke out into laughter, but not the kind of laughter sane people have. Ayame, who was sitting in between Yuusuke and Kuwabara, moved away from Yusuke and into Kuwabara. Said boy took it wrongly and started to hug the disorientated cat girl, Ayame let out a scream, punched Kuwabara and Yuusuke in the face, then jumped over the table behind Miirei, who was sitting on the other side of the table between Hiei and Kurama.
''What was that about?'' Miirei asked the cat.
''Yuusuke was laughing like a loony, and the baka's person got to close to my person''.
Yuusuke who was now awake shouted at Ayame then started to smirk again.
''What's up with the creepy face?'' Miirei asked.
''I've been to one of these kinda' places before,'' Yusuke started with the same perverted grin. ''They have really hot girls in kimonos come in and dance about,''
''Really Urameshi?'' Kuwabara shouted from his place, then looked at the doors in front of him eagerly,''
''Yup,''
''I am not amused by your imaturity,'' Kurama said dissaprovingly to Yusuke and Kuwabara.
''Yet you're looking at the door fox,'' Hiei said with a smirk.
The two doors were slid open, and a very feminine boy with light blue hair which came down past his shoulders walked in. His bangs framed his girly face. On his forehead was a silver upsidedown crescent moon. He had striking blue eyes with black pupils. One silver and one black cat ear adorned his head, the latter had four silver hoops in. Two black cat tails, one tipped with silver. He was dressed in an elegant kimono made up of many different shades of blue, with a light blue obi.
Ayame quickly stood up and walked over to the window, opened it and jumped out into the darkness.
''Scorch!'' Miirei asked looking at the boy standing infront of them.
''Mii?'' The boy replied. (Ash: pronounced me-e) ''Was that her?'' he then asked with a sad expression on his face.
''Yeah, whats with that tone of voice? last time you tried to kill her, anyway I'm glad to see you,how long has it been?''
''about 70 years, you've certainly grown up,''
''Heh,I could say the same about you, how's everyone?
''They were good the last time i saw them,"
Ash: Just a small filler chapter. The rest will be up later when I've eaten something. -,-
