High school can be a drag sometimes...especially since I have to pair with Kayla Dobbs for a project. T.T Waah, the world is not fair but that is a lesson I know by heart now so I'm over that one...I'm going to vent my anger on this chapter because my parents are pushing their limits. Oh well. Here you go!

Chapter Five
Vanessa is bored as her Honors English test is placed before her. She twiddles her pencil between her fingers, wondering what everyone else is doing in their fifth period classes. She thinks of Olivia all alone in the C Building and smiles. Ms. Schofeildwhacks her desk for attention, giving instructions for the test before letting the children go ahead and suffer to their content. Vanessa's eyes glance over the paper unhappily. First class of the day and she has to take a stupid test that no one warned her about so she is most likely going to fail.
No, scratch that. These questions are so easy any idiot down in the C Building could answer them. (a/n: Why did I write that? I'm just insulting myself. U.U) Sighing, she puts her pencil on the paper and begins writing in the answers. And she is half-way done before something pink flashes in the window and catches her eye. What was that? It doesn't come again for a moment, so she thinks she imagines it. Until it comes and stays. Vanessa's eyes widen as the figure comes into focus. It is Hiei. Stifling a laugh, Vanessa takes a closer look. Yes, Hiei, dressed in a frilly pink dress with pink hair and a very unhappy expression on his face. Vanessa's laugh becomes harder to control--until he holds up the pink balloon sword they had replaced with his real one.
"Uh-oh."
Hiei's eyes are filling with fire and the poor lone Destiny knows that all Hell is about to break loose. Her hand goes up rapidly, and she swings it around to catch her teachers attention.
"MS. SCHOFEILD! MAY I BE EXCUSED?"
"Indoor voice, Vanessa and no--we're in the middle of a test."
"But I have to go real bad!"
"Thanks for letting us know, but the answer remains no."
"I'M GOING TO DIE!" Vanessa's face contorts as she finds that Hiei is staring at the window as if pondering what is the best way to break it down. "If I die I'm going to haunt you all until you die too!"
"Vanessa sit down. You're not going to die."
CRASH! Vanessa screams as Hiei comes crashing through the window heading straight for her. O.0 Her entire class stares at the perverted psycho cross-dresser that is Hiei before launching into shouts and laughs. Vanessa looks for an escape.
"Onna..."
"I'M DEAD!"
She scrambles from her seat and runs around the room as Hiei chases her. She has to get him a considerable distance away from the door before she can bolt to it. Thinking quickly, she grabs a thick textbook from someone's desk and tosses it at his face. Whack! Hiei is slowed momentarily, giving Vanessa just enough time to get to the door, wrench it open, and go screaming down the hall with her arms flailing wildly in the air as if doing so will help her situation. A yelling Hiei runs after her, reminding himself to burn the dress he is wearing when he gets home.
But back to Vanessa. She goes screaming down the end of the hallway, passing Mr. Brewster's room before turning the corner. Inside, Meagan and Nissi look up from their reading and stare out into the hallway. What was that?
I have to do something... Vanessa, thinking quickly, turns around only to have Hiei crash into her waist. I must save myself! So she grabs his...skirt...and yanks it up, lighting it on fire in the process.
"Meagan, Nissi--run!"
They look at each other then back to the hallway as Vanessa runs past again, Hiei hot on her trail. With a sharp intake of breath, Meagan looks at Nissi who gulps and slowly closes her book. Meagan follows suit. They gather their things and stuff them in their bags, making sure everything is nice and neat. Mr. Brewster casts his eyes in their direction, surprised.
"Oh my..."
The two Destinies clasp their hands together as Kurama appears in the doorway. But it is no Kurama that they would regularly see. His hair is dyed the darkest of black and his goth outfit really compliments his figure. All the girls stare. He closes his eyes as if to compose himself but fails dismally as he holds up a single dead black rose. Then, he raises his eyes to meet Meagan's and Nissi's and says in a low voice,
"How. Could. You."
"AAAH!"
"Sorry Mr. Brewster! We'll get the homework tomorrow!"
"RUN, Nissi!"
"I'm coming!"
Shoving the window open Meagan and Nissi jump, much to everyone's surprise. Their classmates crowd at the window, and Mr. Brewster reaches for the phone to call security. Kurama, replacing his rose in his hair, jumps also, landing with ease. But the two Destinies are gone, running off into the direction of the gym where there are plenty of places to hide. Vanessa, on the other hand, is running quickly down the stairs to escape Hiei's wrath. I wonder where Yusuke and Kuwabara are...
Olivia looks at her watch. English 9 is going smoothly. A little too smoothly for Olivia. All they are doing is cutting and pasting things for their collage and currently her partner is talking about nothing but how cute Bow Wow and Omarion are and how she is going to marry them when she gets older. Olivia rolls her eyes, thinking of how they won't even notice her if she doesn't put on some weight.
"Hm...our poster still needs something."
Suddenly, an odd presence fills the air. A very odd presence. She ducks her head as the glass from the extra door cracks and breaks, shattering around the room and cutting some. One shard flies past Olivia and cuts her arm, the blood splattering on her poster. Perfect! She smiles wide but her smile fades instantly as she figures out what the strange presence is. Yusuke, standing in the main door, and Kuwabara, standing in the glass one, are dressed very much like Hiei. Pink--but their matching dresses have lacy white bows in certain places. Yusuke's ungelled pink hair makes him look a bit like a girl and Kuwabara...Kuwabara is beyond words.
"OH MY GOSH I'M GONNA DIE!"
"OLIVIA BE QUIET! WHO ARE YOU?" Mrs. O'Donnell commands, pointing at Kuwabara and Yusuke.
They do not answer; they only begin to walk slowly towards Olivia. Since there are no windows in her classroom, Olivia is forced to go around...if she can. But it seems that the two are not going to give her much of a chance. She bursts into pretend tears.
"That's not fair! You're ganging up on me!"
Suddenly Kuwabara trips and hits the floor face first. Olivia's old friend Mark casually sticks his foot back underneath his desk, whistling for Olivia to go. She gives a whoop of happiness and, mentally noting to hug him to death later, runs out of the broken door and towards the main building, wondering where her friends are when she needs them. Inside the gym, Meagan and Nissi have been found underneath the bleachers by the furious Kurama and are now fleeing out towards the courtyard, as is Vanessa. Olivia sees them and puts on an extra burst of speed to catch up. By now students are leaning out of the windows, cheering on the crazy freshman girls. In one of the classrooms, the Destinie's new friend Carinne sits in shock.
"Was that...Hiei?"
(a/n: Carinne is a rabid Hiei fan girl. You'll find out how she knows about Hiei later...)
The teachers yank their students back into the classrooms, leaving the Destinies alone with their rabid boyfriends. And as they run, they see...Derek? Yes, it is the ever stupid Derek pumping his legs and running towards the Destinies as fast as humanly possible.
"Vanessa! I'll save you!" he shouts stupidly, coming up behind Hiei.
WHAM! Derek goes flying, making all the funniest faces as Hiei turns around punches him hard in the stomach. The Destinies gawk, but resume their positions of fear when the boys turn back towards them, fire in their eyes.
"Every man for themselves!" Vanessa yells, swiftly turning into a hawk and exiting the scene.
Olivia summons her cloud and flies high above the buildings and out of eyesight. Luckily for Meagan it is not too cold so she teleports out of the danger area before teleporting up to Olivia and her cloud. And Nissi prepares for the highest jump of her life, which is only half-executed. Just as she jumps, two things happen: Kurama grabs her ankle and drags her back, holding her, and the cops come.
"FREEZE!"
The boys stand surprised as four policemen hold them at gunpoint. Hiei instinctively reaches for his katana but then feels the squishyness that is a balloon and begins a stream of inwards swearing. Struggling against Kurama's grip, Nissi manages to speak a few words to the policemen.
"Help me! Rapist! Stalkers!"
"Let her go and put your hands on your heads!"
Kurama sighs, letting go of Nissi and putting his hands on the back of his head, signalling for the others to do so too. Before the police can question her, Nissi runs off quickly, heading to the Spot. She knows that is where her friends will be waiting for her. And she is right. There they are, sitting with their feet splashing in the chilly water waiting for her arrival. Next stop: Spirit World. /a.n.--I have no idea how we get to Spirit World but we do./ The four burst past the entrance, past all of the stupid ogres who keep running into each other, and straight to Koenma's office.
"Oh. Hello girls. What are you doing...here...?"
"KOENMA!"
"Because we couldn't come!"
"They said we had to stay behind!"
"So we--"
"--painted their rooms and--"
"--dyed their hair--"
"--and we replaced all their clothes with the opposite of which they'd wear!"
"So they came to our school!"
"AND WE NEARLY DIED!"
"The police!"
"The police, yes, the police took them!"
"And soon they'll break out!"
"Mwahahahahahaha!"
"They'll kill us!"
"SO HELP US!" the Destinies end together.
Koenma bursts out laughing clutching his sides and falling out of his big poofy chair, hitting the floor with a loud thump. George, his own personal ogre, comes in and puts him back in his chair where he subsides in his hysterical laughter. The girls stare at him expectantly, eyes pleading. He adjusts his hat-thing and his pacifier and regards the four with a serious stare.
"Just go home."
"NEVER! We'll be murdered in our sleep!"
"Um... Okay then, just go hide. I'll send them home."
"Don't give them any hints that we're hiding!" they warn him as they return to the human world.
Where they hide: a bush. /a.n.--A bush?/ They duck very low to the ground as the boys come back from either the police station or Koenma's. It seems to be the latter of the two as they are looking very pissed and cannot seem to stay in one spot for very long. Kuwabara kicks the door open and stomps into the living room, plopping down in front of the television. Yusuke rubs his temples saying something about needing a beer. Kurama and Hiei are silent but are, in their heads, planning all sorts of evil torture for the girls when they return. And they will return.
The Destinies give the boys a minute to calm down before they abandon their bush and walk quietly through the front door. They are greeted with four super-mega-death-glares that could put even Vanessa to shame. And when she gives death glares you know you're about to be hurt, so that's saying something. The four friends glance uneasily at the boys and then back at each other, covering their heads as all four of the boys break out in loud yells. They just hope that the neighbors aren't hearing this right now...
Just as the boys take their first breath in five minutes...POOF!
"HAH! I FOUND YOU!"
We know that voice... They all stare, dumbfounded, as none other than the famous Carinne appears from the smoke and grabs none other than Hiei (a/n: I did tell you she was a Hiei freak. ) and drags him away from the others and stuffs him into a closet. /twitch/ Olivia casually slides over to where Carinne is doing guard duty, beginning to yell at her and ask what the hell she is doing. Dawe barks.
"I'm keeping Hiei, that's what I'm doing!"
"You can't keep Hiei! He's mine!"
"MINE!"
"MINE!"
"HIEI'S MINE DAMN IT!"
Furious, Olivia grabs Carinne's shoulders and she grabs Olivia's and the two begin fighting each other to the death for Hiei, who is still locked in the closet. He is uncertain whether or not to just bust it open or not but in the end...yes, in the end he decides that he doesn't give a crap and breaks it open with his fists, only to find Olivia and Carinne still fighting. The two--though they don't want to fight because they are friends--are determined to kill each other if they have to. After a few more long minutes of trying to gauge each others eyes out, Carinne comes up with a plan.
"Let's share him."
"W-wha--?"
"Let's share him."
"Hm...can I have him Mondays?"
"Sure. You can have him on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I'll take him Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. He can have Sunday off."
"DEAL!"
"ONNAS!" Hiei yells. The two look at him. "I WILL NOT BE SHARED!"
"But Hiei!" Olivia tugs his arm. "It's clear that she's not going to let just me have you, and she's too good of a friend to lose over a boy and besides: I can deal with sharing you, and she can deal with sharing you."
"Onna..."
"Trust me, Hiei--you'll love her just as much as you love me."
"Hn."
"Yeah!" Carinne punches the air. "Come on Hiei! Let's go do stuff!"
"Uh-uh," Olivia shakes her head.
"What do you mean?"
"It's Monday."
"Hehe."
"YOU DID THAT ON PURPOSE!"
"IF I HAVE TO SHARE HIM I AT LEAST GET THE REST OF TODAY!"
"Grr!"
"Grr!"
Carinne drops to the floor in defeat, maddened by the fact that she fell for Olivia's plot. But she is soon brought out of her state as she sees Kurama. Her eyes widen and her fingers twitch. Inspiration.
"YOU! You must be my model for my new drawing! Now if only you had a dead black rose..."
He pulls one from his hair.
"PERFECT! Come!"
A surprised Kurama is pulled away from the group and into the kitchen where Carinne pulls out her sketch pad and pencil. While she is doing so, the Destinies look at each other, then at the boys. It is clear that another will be joining them at the mansion. Things just got more interesting.
Carinne, the newest Destiny Scout, actually is drawing that picture of Kurama. Kya! She is Kentra, Destiny of the Forgotten. It's so cool, too! I'll have Nissi post a link for that later. Well, how'd you like it? It seems that I must share Hiei from now on...even in the Epilogue. o.0 Domo mucho to Vanessa for reminding me of that. Heheh--anyways--so reviews welcome as usual! Next chapter to be up soon! Bis bald!
