An Unlikely Fellowship
Chapter 3: Why do you smell like Hanyou?
Hiei's burning red eyes glared at the figures below the tree. There where two of them one male and the other female. Instantly, he recognized them and sprang form his perch to greet his "friends". "What the hell do you want, Yusuke?" Yusuke smirked, "I see you missed me. Any ways, did you know that you are assigned to a new mission with me, Hiei?"
Hiei growled wearily as his eyes met Botan's, "Yes I know, Kurama is, too. If you had any brains you'd know that I'm not supposed to do any thing until I hear from Kurama." Botan laughed hesitantly, "I'm sorry! I was just double checking!" Hiei leaped back up into the tree, "If you don't mind, I'd like to get some rest before Kurama decides to show up."
"Hey, where can we find fox boy?" shouted Yusuke to the sleepy youkai. "I'm not quite sure, but I do recall him saying that he was going to be some where with his human mother, today. Now can you leave?" "Yeah, keep your panties on Hiei," mumbled Yusuke as he and Botan turned to leave the grumpy demon to sleep. "Panties? How revolting to say such a thing." growled the angered Hiei.
*****************************
Kagome ran toward the tool shed to think. How was she going to protect her family form that youkai? For the minute, he looked harmless but Kagome remembered to keep her guard up when it came to demons. She gazed around, looking for some type of weapon, be all she found was a couple of shovels and old scrolls.
"Here it is," said Mrs. Minamino as she softly touched the bark of the holy tree. "This tree....." Kurama mumbled as he stared in to it's wise old branches. "Yes, was here that I found out that you where going to be born, my son." Kurama lowered his head, he knew this tree very well him self. This was the tree his soul hid in until he found his mother.
"Shuichi? What's wrong? You look so sad."
Kurama looked sadly into the eyes of his mother, "Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking." Suddenly, Mrs. Higurashi shouted, "Hey, why don't you come in for tea now?" "All right! Shuichi? Do you want to come inside?" Kurama nodded his head gently, "Not right now. I just want to stay here for the moment." Mrs. Minamino sighed and agreed with her mystic like child and retired into her friend's house.
"Thank you, my friend," he said quietly to the silent tree. Suddenly, his nose began to pick up a scent. A another demon? No, it was a faint smell half-breed. From the whiff of it, another being carried the scent. Kurama gently sniffed once more. It was that girl! He knew she was strange when he first saw her!
The Kitsune slowly trotted around the buildings, cautiously smelling his way around and pretending not to notice the alarmed girl in the shed. Finally, after toying with his prey, Kurama spoke saying, "I wonder what it is about me you fear, Miss Kagome."
'Crap!' thought the panicked girl as she stared at the figure that slowly made it's way toward her, 'I have to protect my family from this youkai, no matter what!' Suddenly the figure stopped and replied, "I have no desire to hurt your family," then he continued to walk, "Just please tell me one thing..."
Kagome now stared in to the sad emerald green eyes of the possible threat that would be just inches away from her face if it weren't for the door that slightly opened a crack. "Why is it, that you have the aroma of a hanyou on you?" 'OH NO!' thought Kagome as she quickly replied, "Th-that's none of your business! I-I'm warning you!"
Kurama chuckled as he could feel the girl's defensive spirit begin to anger. "You know," said the kitsune softly, "Hanyou are dangerous. You should be careful when dealing with them." Kagome slammed open the door, "OH YEAH?! Well in my opinion, youkai that pose around as humans are more dangerous." Suddenly, the enchanting pools of green met her eyes again, "Like I said before, I have no desire to harm you."
Kagome didn't believe this guy one bit, Sango had told her that some youkai where extremely crafty, if she only had her bow, she could blast this man away. Kurama smiled, he was glad this woman wasn't the timid little rabbit he thought she was. "LISTEN!" she hissed, "I'm a Miko in training! And I am not afraid of you!" Kurama's eyes widened, Mikos were almost extinct in the world day.
'So this is the one that Koema had sensed. Why is it that I do not feel any thing from her now?' Kurama knew that he couldn't just grab her by the arm and take her to Koema. He had to gain her trust as any gentleman would do besides, she was a Miko and even if she was in training or not, they where unpredictable.
"Forgive me, weather or not you chose to believe me is your choice. But, I would rather try to help you than to have mother grieve for you later." "How is it, that a human, can give birth to full fledged demon? I think you are in denial, buster!" Kurama lowered his head, "This body, belongs to Shuichi her son but, it's soul belongs to Youko Kurama. Even so, I would never hurt her. I'd kill myself before that happened." With that, the boy with flaming hair sadly turned away from the mistrusting girl and back inside to his mother.
Kagome crossed her arms and muttered some thing to her self as she gazed toward the holy tree. Suddenly, a sharp pain of sadness filled her, 'Was I too rough on him? He seemed so upset besides, he didn't seem evil,' she told her self. Suddenly, Mrs. Minamino appeared with her 'son' once more saying, "It was nice to meet you Kagome!" as they walked away. Kagome turned away from the family, she felt ashamed and replied, "Yes, Have a nice day Mrs. Minamino and You too, Shuichi."
Kurama turned back toward the young Miko and smiled warmly, reasuring Kagome that she had been forgiven.

Yusuke and Botan trotted down the crowded streets. "Damn it," muttered the obviously annoyed teen, "Finding this Miko is liking trying to find a needle in a hay stack! If the holidays didn't have all these stupid people around, maybe I'd like them more!" Botan giggled, "Well Yusuke, weren't you the one who was saying that you were happy to get out of school?" Yusuke growled, "Yeah, I guess that's one good thing about the holidays." Suddenly, a grumbling and deep voice shouted, "YO, URAMESHI!"
Yusuke turned to see a large and somewhat ugly red-orange haired teen approach them. "Hey, Kuwabara! What are you doing here?" "I'm here to kick your ass!" Yusuke tossed his head back in a roar of laughter, "Yeah right!" Suddenly, Kuwabara's fist landed on top of the laughing Yusuke's head. "OWCH! YOU BASTARD! What the heck was that for!" "What the hell do you think it was for! You left Keiko all by her self at the movie theater you JERK!"
"KEIKO? Oh crap! I forgot!" squealed the shocked Yusuke as he began to run off toward the theater. "Yusuke! What about the mission?" screamed Botan. "SCREW THAT! I'm more worried about Keiko!" Without looking Yusuke ran smack into Kurama who had just been coming to fetch his comrades.
"Well," chuckled Kurama, "I was hoping to run into you but, I wasn't expecting it to be literal." Yusuke rubbed his head as he snapped, "Damn it, Kurama! What the hell is your head made out of? Cement?" Botan and Kuwabara quickly dashed toward their fallen freinds.
"Are you all right?" asked the concerned Botan. Yusuke stood up still rubbing his head while Kurama rose and dusted him self replied, "Yes, I'm very well in fact, I have good news." "What?" the others replied. "I found the Miko."
