Alexis stopped for a minute, why did her parents leave when she had something important happening, it was always one or the other, not both of them. Kurama walked silently up to her, and said
"You hide your sadness well from your friends."
"I just don't want them to know it bothers me." Alexis replied
"Yes, but they worry about you, you know that." Kurama said
"They shouldn't worry about me, I hate it when other people worry about me, it puts more stress on me than I need, and it also hurts them as well."
"They're doing it out of friendship, Alexis, not because they want to but because they need to, you'll find that many people worry over things that are not necessary."
"Like you, for instance?"
"Ye-uh, well that's not exactly what I meant but it could possibly fit."
"Your sweet Suuichi, no wonder the girls at school fawn over you," Alexis said, getting up, then turned towards Kurama "Don't you ever get tired of that?"
"Yes, actually I do, and does the same go for you?"
"Yeah, but I can't seem to stop them, I have admit it is kind of nice."
"I have to agree."
Alexis looked up at the night sky, then got a strange look on her face, Kurama noticed this and said
"Is there anything the matter, Alexis?"
"What is that?"
Alexis pointed at a dark figure coming towards them, Kurama recognized it immediately, a demon.
"I'm not sure, but I think we'd better go back inside."
"Hm, yeah you're right, it's getting a little chilly."
Before Alexis could even open the door, the demon had flew into her knocking her back, and on the ground. Alexis looked up at the demon terrified. Kurama, unsure of what to do, was contemplating whether or not he should pull out his rose whip.
The demon made another attempt to attack Alexis but she had gotten up and dodged the attack, then lashed out with a kick. She didn't know exactly how to fight, but she knew enough that would give her a chance. Alexis was glad the dress she was wearing had slits up both sides.
Yusuke and the others were inside when they heard a loud scream then the sound of branches breaking. They ran outside to find Alexis knocked out, and the tree that was behind her was down, then saw Kurama use his Rose Whip Lash on a demon that apparently had attacked them.
Tameo and Kiki hadn't even noticed Kurama so he was safe, but they ran over to Alexis to see if she was all right. Alexis stirred and looked up at her two friends.
"Are you okay, Alexis?" Kiki asked
"Yeah, I'm fine, just a sore that's all." Alexis replied
"Here let's get you inside." Tameo said
"Right." Kiki said, and together they helped Alexis inside.
Yusuke and the others stayed behind to talk to Kurama,
"What happened?" Yusuke asked
"A demon attacked her, she's the one that spotted it." Kurama replied
"But how?" Hiei piped up
"Not sure, but maybe Koenma knows something about this, and just hasn't told us." Yusuke said
"You don't know how right you are." said a voice
Boton popped into view, and she went on
"Alexis has a strange energy about her, for some reason, and Koenma wants to know what it is about her that makes her so strange."
"I figured as much," Kurama said, Hiei gave him an odd look "You know how she was in the tree, well the blow the demon gave her was a killing one., somehow she survived it."
"Hm, I see, thanks Kurama, you guys will need to see Koenma very soon." Boton said and vanished
"Come on, let's go and see how Alexis is then head home." Yusuke said
The others nodded, and went inside, they found Alexis sitting at a table, most of the people had now gone. For some reason she was bent at the waist slightly and holding her head, of course Kurama didn't blame her for hold her head like that she had taken a hard hit, but being bent at the waist puzzled him. That demon didn't get a good shot in did he, he thought, no he couldn't have there would be blood.
"Are you okay?" Yusuke asked
"Yes, I'm fine now, just a little dizzy is all." Alexis replied, looking up.
"That's good, I'm sure it'll wear off in a little bit, and you'll feel better after a nights rest, I'm sure." Kurama said
"Yes, thank you." Alexis replied
"Alexis, Kiki and I are going to head home, you sure you don't anything?" Tameo said
"Yes, I'm sure, thanks." Alexis said
Tameo and Kiki then left.
"We should do the same, goodnight, Alexis." Yusuke said, the others nodded and started for the door, then Kurama turned around and said
"Great performance, and fight, Alexis," he then gave her a white rose that was just beginning to blossom "Goodnight."
Kurama then left, Alexis was blushing furiously, then she smiled, Suuichi you're so mysterious it bugs me, she thought then went upstairs to go to sleep, placing the rose on her night stand.
"Why did you stay behind last night?" Hiei asked Kurama
"Because I wanted to give Alexis something." Kurama replied
"Is that so, well you know, Koenma wants to meet us with Yusuke and lump head right?"
"Yes, I do Hiei, you know I don't forget things."
"Yeah that's the problem."
Kurama laughed a little and saw Yusuke and Kuwabarra walking up to them.
"You two ready?" Yusuke said
"When are we not ready, detective?" Hiei said, jumping down from the tree he was in.
"Well then lets go." Yusuke said, and went to the portal that Boton had made for them.
"Koenma, sir, do you really think this sweet girl is a demon in disguise?" Boton asked
"No not really, she's just a strange person like Yusuke, or Kuwabarra, but she has more of the demonic tendencies." Koenma replied
"Koenma, Yusuke and the other's are here, sir." Jorge said from the doorway to Koenma's office
"Well then send them in." Koenma said
"What do you want, toddler?" Yusuke demanded
"You want to know about that attack on Miss Alexis-uh-"
"Manemura." Kurama finished for him
"Yes, her," Koenma said, they nodded "Well it seem that she some supernatural being."
"Something like Kurama or Hiei?" Yusuke asked
"Yes, and no, Alexis has powers like you two," Koenma replied, pointing at Yusuke and Kuwabarra "But demonic tendencies like, Hiei or Kurama."
"I see, so she can sense things such as demons or danger, and can beat the hell out of them if she wants to?" Yusuke said
"Yes, but the only problem with that is someone wants her power, that's what the attack was about." Koenma replied
"Well then we'll just have see to it that whatever power she has isn't taken." Hiei said
"It won't be easy." Koenma said
"Why is that?" Kuwabarra asked
"Because she hardly knows any of you, with perhaps the exception of Kurama, and besides that she doesn't have any clue about this."
"I'm sure Alexis won't mind hang around with us, Koenma, but as for the other part I'm not so sure about." Kurama said
"I know that, that is why I am going to send it too her in a dream," Koenma said "Hopefully what'll happen is she'll tell one of you, don't know who though."
"And what if she tells someone else about it?" Hiei asked
"She won't, she's not one to let off something so easily, trust me the talks I've had with her proves that." Kurama replied
"Then it's settled, do what you can to help her out, then once it's all revealed we can get her trained and get rid of the person who wants her power." Koenma said
The rest nodded, then left, I hope this works, Koenma thought, if not dad will skin me alive.
"You hide your sadness well from your friends."
"I just don't want them to know it bothers me." Alexis replied
"Yes, but they worry about you, you know that." Kurama said
"They shouldn't worry about me, I hate it when other people worry about me, it puts more stress on me than I need, and it also hurts them as well."
