So Kioko's problem with Kurama was revealed. Do you think she'll stay mad at him for the rest of the story? Of course she can't, or can she? Am I being vague? Oh well read on.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho but I own all the other characters that aren't in the show.

CHAPTER 6
By the time the fire cleared Kioko and Kai had already fled leaving no trail of energy for the Spirit Detectives to find them.
"So Kurama…what are gonna do about her now?" asked Kuwabara.
"I'm not sure. She's obviously won't forgive me anytime soon," Kurama said answering Kuwabara's question.
"Hn. I'd like to see how this'll. She'll be only girl in you school who doesn't like you," sneered Hiei.
"Hey Botan"
"Yes Yusuke?"
"Does Koenma know anything about this girl?"
Botan bit her lip, knowing that she would expect this question. She had gone back to the Spirit World to ask Koenma about her. Koenma told her that the Spirit Detectives will eventually ask her this question. Koenma also told her to stall as much as possible before telling them the truth.
"Oh look there isn't the sunset beautiful," ((oh the randomness)) Botan was doing as Koenma wished; stall as long as she could. Unfortunately for her, Yusuke wasn't falling for it.
"Botan…" Yusuke grew impatient.
"Ok fine, as shocking as this sounds, Kioko and Kai are also Spirit Detectives except they do different jobs as you," Botan said slowly.
"WHAT!?!? Those two are Spirit Detectives? Why didn't Koenma ever tell use about them?" asked Yusuke who was totally and completely shocked.
"It's because Kioko requested Koenma not to mention anything about her to us."
They all looked at Kurama, "So what now?"
"I don't know. I guess we wait."
------------------------------**********************------------------------------
--Meanwhile getting to Kioko and Kai--
Kai ran out of the alley nearby their house where they lived, making sure no one was by to see Akina. That was the big downside in raising a fox demon as a pet in the human world; you have to keep it secret.
"It's ok," Kai said.
"Open the garage door," Kioko whispered.
Kai nodded and rushed to open the door, Kioko cued Akina to go in. Kioko and Kai ran in, Kai closed the door, Kioko held her arms out causing Akina to become the blue gem she once was. The gem floated into Kioko's hand and she tucked it away in her.
*Sigh* "What a day and thanks for jinxing my karma," Kioko said, sitting on the couch. She hadn't expected this to happen all on the first day of school.
"I'm sorry ok?" Kai apologized, sitting down next to her, "I didn't think what I said this afternoon would actually happen,"
Kioko smiled, she knew she couldn't stay mad at him, just jumped and asked, "So what should we do for dinner? You want take-out or do you wanna cook?"
Kai did a face fault, got up and sweat dropped and wondered how easily it is for her to change moods so easily. But he knew she could never stay mad at him. He knew how she was; Kioko never liked the typical demon scum personality, but her heart changed when she met Kai.
"Uhhhh…how about take out? I'm a bit tired to cook and you must be tired too."
Kioko loved how Kai was always so considerate about other people's feelings.
"Take-out it is, so what'll it be, Chinese or Korean?"
"Ummm…Korean, while your ordering, I'm gonna go take a shower," Kai said while heading up the stairs.
------------------------------**********************------------------------------
Months went by since their last encounter, Kioko no longer needed to avoid Kurama or any of the other Spirit Detectives. Kurama and Kioko only had two classes together. Kurama was sometimes seen looking at her, sometimes Kioko would look back but other times she wouldn't look at all. Same happens when they're walking past each other.
When it was getting closer to the holidays ((one of those seasons when Kurama becomes a girl magnet)), Kioko happened to be walking past two girls who were giving Christmas presents to Kurama. She was stopped by one of the girls and asked, "Are you two twins, as in related twins?"
Kioko looked at Kurama and answered, "Oh no, we're not related, we just…look a lot like each other.
"Oh I see, okay thanks," both of the girls ran off.
"Why did you say that when you know we are related?" Kurama asked?
"It's 'cause we're only related demonically, humanly ((is that even a word)) we're not." Kioko ran off to her next class.
"It hates to see two siblings like this," sighed Botan who was sitting on her oar and watching the two twins walk off in separate directions.
"Hn," Hiei said, who was sitting in a tree next to where Botan was floating.
"One of us should talk to her, eventually she'll have to forgive Kurama," Botan continued.
"You mean like pep talks?" Hiei questioned, "I'm not doing it, I hate pep talks."
"Well obviously she won't listen to Kurama so let's have Yusuke do it," Botan decided.
"Why Yusuke?" Hiei questioned.
"Would you actually trust Kuwabara with this job?"
Hiei thought about how Kuwabara would most likely screw up, he sweat dropped and shook his head at the thought.
"I thought so," smiled Botan.
------------------------------**********************------------------------------
When school got to its winter holidays, Kioko started working more days at her part time job and the coffee shop.
Kioko handed the customer her coffee and her bagel take-out, "Thank you and come again."
She walked back to the register, while clearing the last order off the registering, she starting saying, "Hi, what would…" she looked up before finishing her sentence she looked up, "YOU!"
To be continued…

Well what do you know? Another cliffhanger. Don't worry it's not as big as the last one.
