What's Love Got to Do with It?
Ch. 2
Ok….Thank you people for your reviews…and yes I thought about having Nami try and slap Kyoko but I wanted her hand to bleed, (( I like blood sorry.)) And popular girls are very likely of punching/beating up people. Ahem…ONWARDS!

Botan floated above the city, sitting on her oar and looking around frantically. "Oh gosh…Is Yusuke in school today?" The grim reaper darted towards the school, heading towards the roof. She skidded to a stop, her kimono sleeves still swaying, "Or is it Saturday? Oh….I don't have TIME for this!" She exclaimed, going back up into the air. The blue haired woman let out a sigh, closing her pink eyes. "Even if it was a school day…Yusuke probably would have skipped, so in that case…." She thought, putting a finger to her chin.
Smiling happily Botan began to fly at top speed towards the tunnels that were by the park. "Ok…Yusuke here I come." She said defiantly…
XXXXXXXX Some school in Tokyo…..
Kyoko sighed, her elbows on her desk and her shin resting in her hands as the teacher gave a boring lesson on biology. Her bright blue eyes glanced down at her clothes, the school uniform certainly didn't suit her…Not one bit, well maybe the black skirt…But the light green top was out.
Letting out a sigh Kyoko glanced out of the window, looking at the tree with a half lidded gaze. She looked into the eyes of a fire demon, which looked right back at her angrily. Said demon, leaned back a little repositioning himself and crossing his arms.
The school girl sighed and looked to her right at the person who sat beside her, Hoshi. Chestnut hair rustled a bit as Hoshi turned her head and looked to Kyoko with a smile. She took out a piece of paper and scribbled something down before sliding it to Kyoko.
Kyoko looked at the note which read, "I'm overflowing with boredom…you?" Kyoko smiled a little and wrote something down and slipped the note to Hoshi.
"Yes….I can see the purple slime coming from the top of your head…."
"Really? It's purple? Wow. OH! I see it too! On your head!"
Kyoko laughed at this, a little too loud. A few heads turned and stared at her awkwardly but the teacher didn't seem to notice.
Hiei quirked an eyebrow at this, leaning forward a bit, interested. "What strange practice is this girl doing?" He questioned, staring at the piece of paper intently. Though he was still hidden in the shadows, a pair of green eyes spotted him.
Hoshi said nothing and simply watched at Hiei stared back into her eyes, locking them. "What is it about that….girl…?"
Hiei growled slightly as a shrill ringing noise filled his ears. He jumped back, breaking his gaze, "Stupid human devices…." He muttered angrily.
Hoshi stood, shoving the note into her pocket, waving goodbye to Kyoko as she headed towards her history class.
Kyoko waved and let out a sigh, her emotionless mask once again covering her porcelain face as she headed towards the gym, where Nami would be waiting with Haya trying to out do her in sports. Sometimes she succeeded but most of the time she failed miserably. She pulled open the door to the locker room and changed her clothes….
XXXXX With Botan and friends….
Yusuke looked at Botan, "So let me get this straight…Four girls, one being Kyoko, have wavelengths showing up on Koenma's screen?"
Botan nodded, "Yes, that is correct, and Koenma's latest observations have show that during school hours they all are in the same area. That leads me to believe that they all go to the same school."
Yusuke smirked and crossed his arms, "I'm not that stupid Botan you don't have to explain everything to me. Nope." He smiled brightly.
Botan sighed, running a hand through her pony tail and sighing. "Whatever…The point is you need to be on the safe side. Weather or not these, blips, are dangerous is unknown, but they are getting stronger day by day. So something big may happen soon." She explained.
Yusuke quirked an eyebrow, you could practically see the multiple question marks floating above his head.
"GAH!" Botan thrust her hands up into the air in anger, "Just…Be cautious…We don't know what could happen. You know what they say, under the right circumstances it could all go wrong."
Yusuke rubbed the back of his head, "Since when did they say that?"
Botan sighed and turned on her heel, "You're so hopeless….." She said quietly to herself…
XXXXXXXXXX At…um…READ AND FIND OUT!
Hiei sat in a tree, looking down at the outdoor volleyball court. "Stupid humans and their idiotic practices." He glanced down at Kyoko and watched as she stood a few feet away from the net. A taller girl with blue and orange hair tossed the ball in the air, hit it with her hand and set it flying over the net to the other people.
The demon's red eyes followed the ball as it was hit back to the starting side. Kyoko passed the ball to another teammate who spiked it down onto the ground. A girl from the second team tossed the ball into the air and hit it over the net. Kyoko hit it back, scoring another point as it bounced along the ground.
Another shrill sound made Hiei wince and almost fall out of the tree. He continued to watch intently as a woman with a red metal item in her hand walked up to the court. "Very good very good." She said with a smile, "Nami could you switch teams with Kuguri?"
Nami nodded, "Yes Miss Heike," the fake blond said bowing her head and switching over to the other side, her position next to Kyoko. Nami shot the raven haired girl a glare and smiled smugly. "Finally…a chance to beat Kyoko in volleyball." She thought tossing her hair over her shoulder.
Kyoko glared right back, "Bring it bitch…" She thought angrily, clenching her hands into fists. Miss Heike blew the whistle again and the ball was served…
Hiei leaned back in the tree, letting his arms hang loosely. He closed his eyes and sighed, almost sleeping until he heard a scream and a curse word. Red eyes snapped open as he scanned the area, looking at the situation on the court.
The volleyball was on the ground of the second team's side, Kyoko was on the ground with a bleeding knee and the one he had come to know as, Nami, was next to her on the ground with a bleeding elbow.
"You pushed me! Miss Heike she pushed me!" Nami whined, thought it was more of a high pitched scream. Hiei covered his ears wincing, "She's worse than the shrill noise that the woman made…." He said lowly and growling.
Miss Heike put her hands on her hips, "Nami I saw what happened, Kyoko tried to set the ball and you jumped in front of her as her hands went upwards. It may have looked as if she pushed you but in actuality you landed on her…." She said looking to the bleeding girls. "Go to the nurse…You're excused for the rest of class."
Kyoko looked towards Nami with a smirk before standing and walking towards the building. Nami followed, staying a few feet behind.
Hiei looked down at the scene, now on the top of the roof, "Hn…Humans…"
XXXXXXXXXX After school with-------
Hoshi sat in her desk, still slightly asleep. The bell had rang but she found herself too tired to get up and leave. Suddenly she heard the door open and footsteps followed.
"Damn." A familiar voice said, "Where did I leave…Oh…Found it. Hm? Hoshi? What are you doing here it's time to go."
Hoshi lifted her head with half lidded eyes and looked up at Kyoko, "Too tired." She muttered, rubbing her eyes. Kyoko smiled a little and then looked out the window to see Hiei, closer to the building than he usually was.
Hoshi looked up at Kyoko, seeing her stare off into a different direction. She quirked her eyebrow and lifted her head looking in the same direction and catching sight of the spiky-haired demon. "Who's that?" She asked, too tired to be frantic and jump back in shock.
Kyoko jumped slightly, looking down at the green eyed girl. "Um….that's….Hiei…." As she said his name he blinked twice, staring at the two teenage girls.
Hoshi tensed a bit, "He's a demon…"
Kyoko turned to her, "You can tell then?" She asked astonished and wide-eyed. "How can you tell?"
Hoshi shrank back a bit, "I just...can…You sure do act more joyful around me. Not as quiet…" She commented resting her head back on the desk and staring at Hiei. Their eyes locked again, green into red and red into green.
Hiei broke the gaze and turned his back to the window, stubbornly crossing his arms, "Stupid humans…Always staring." He muttered angrily before glancing over his shoulder at them….
XXXXXXXXXXX Somewhere…Else…Later that night.
Kurama crossed his arms, leaning against the apartment complex and looking up at the sky. Sensing Hiei he looked over his shoulder and spotted Kyoko walking with her hands in her pockets, black hair flowing behind her. "This must be Kyoko…I can sense Hiei following her…." He thought looking upwards and finding the fire demon.
Kyoko looked to the red haired boy through icy eyes, "I see…You know Hiei and my name?" She spoke aloud. "Sorry…I can hear thoughts sometimes…not on queue though." Kyoko said closing her eyes and standing still, waiting for Hiei.
Said demon ran up to his kitsune friend, and nodded his head, "Hn."
"Hello to you too Hiei." Kurama said, chuckling a little. Hiei glanced to Kyoko with an odd expression.
Kyoko nodded, "Go ahead, I'm sure you're getting bored with this anyhow…" She said waving slightly and looking at them with a dull expression.
Kurama looked to her and smiled, "Goodbye Kyoko." He stated also waving as she walked off into the night. He turned back to Hiei, looking down at him, "So how is it going?"
Hiei turned slightly, "Well her and this, Nami, person are always at war, she has a friend named Hoshi who reminds me of you…"
He was cut off by Kurama, "How does she remind you of me?"
Hiei looked to him, eyes half lidded, "Green eyes...Anyways…I'm bored."
Kurama nodded and began walking, beckoning Hiei to follow, "Koenma said that four strange blips have been appearing lately. All of them appear to be in the same area during the school hours…"
"Hn…" Was Hiei's only response.
"He's going to check to see when they are grouped and when they are not, perhaps it will help identify them, well, besides Kyoko who we know is one of the blips." Kurama continued, setting his hands in his pockets. "The blips appear to be very strong; it's amazing anything chaotic hasn't happened yet."
Hiei glanced to him, "Key word being, 'yet'." He replied dryly and looking back in front of him.
XXXXXXXXXXXXX With….
Hoshi sat down in her room on the dark wooden floor in her pajamas, thinking. Her hair was tied up into a pony tail and her arms were crossed as she replayed the scenes of the last few minutes of school.
"That Hiei guy…" She thought looking down at the floor, "He was staring at me…why?" Hoshi sighed, "Him and Kyoko are very similar…."
The phone rang and Hoshi sighed picking it up, "Hey Nami, hey Haya."
"Three way calling, a miracle…" Hoshi thought with heavy sarcasm.
"Like, you won't believe what that bitch Kyoko did to Nami today!" Haya chirped.
"Yeah…such a bitch don't you think?" Nami questioned, her voice practically told you she was smirking while throwing darts at an, "I love Kyoko shirt." ((thanks Whitewillowboulevard, INSPIRATION!))
Hoshi sighed inwardly, sitting on her bed, "Yeah….such a bitch…."
