oOo Last Time oOo

Kuwabara's comment snapped the rest of the males out of their shock ('though Hiei would never admit it) but Kagome was already skipping away.

oOo Chapter 11 oOo

-Kurama- --Youko-- Xx Hiei xX

"Kagome! Kagome, come back here!"

Yusuke ran after Kagome who when called, looked back and seeing him running towards her, started running away.

"Hahahaha! You can't catch me 'cause I'm the gingerbread man!…Woman, woman, not man." Kagome mumbled the last part as she turned a corner.

Wham!

"Oof!"

Kagome looked down at what she had run into and landed on and saw Miroku. She felt a hand on her butt just as Yusuke turned the corner.

"HENTAI!"

Smack!

"I thought you said he was a monk."

"He is, he's just…different…then most monks."

Yusuke snorted then glared at Kagome.

"You have some explaining to do."

"I do…but doesn't mean I will."

Kagome smiled innocently at him.

"Ah Miss Kagome, does this have anything to do with the match you just fought?"

"Mhmm, that it does pervy."

Miroku sweat dropped at the new nickname.

"Then you should tell then Kagome-chan, Hiten would probably say something about it in a match anyway, so it was bound to come out, this way they won't find out during a fight…that they're fighting."

"Guess your right Sango-chan."

Kagome sighed and grabbed Yusuke's ear.

"Come on 'Suke."

"Ow, ow, ow! Kagome! Leggo!"

"Nope, I'm gonna keep dragging you until we get to the room."

"Why the room?"

" 'Cause that's were the others are."

"How do you know that?"

"Part of my glowy-ness." Yusuke opened his mouth to ask again. "And that will only be answered when we get to the room so shut up and let me drag you in silence."

"…what if I don't want to?"

"Then I'll have to pull out baby pictures of you and give them away to people."

Yusuke shut up and didn't utter a sound the whole way to the room. Kagome opened the door and shoved Yusuke in before following.

"Hi guys! Sango-chan has convinced me to tell you about what happened during the fight today."

"Hn, we already know you're a miko."

"Yes, I figured the smarter ones, aka you and Kurama, would figure out. 'Suke, Kuwabara, a miko is a female human that can purify, that is, turn them to dust, a demon."

"…" Yusuke and Kuwabara stared at her.

"I found out I was a miko on my fifteenth birthday when a centipede demon attacked me for an item I hold, no, I will not tell you what that item is. Since that point I, well I didn't really work on it, but I got better at using my miko powers. Just a little while ago I actually trained it as well as learned how to fight. There is much more but I'm telling you none of it because it is my secret and I would prefer to not have people know of it."

"We won't push you Kagome but you should tell us about the item, if demons and humans are after it, we are in potential danger being around you."

"I'm a miko Kurama, you're always in danger around me. I will admit that the item I hold will put you in danger if any find out I have it, but I don't intend to let anyone find out. And if someone does find out, you'll know why I don't want anyone to know."

"Hn."

Hiei disappeared and Kurama sighed.

"I suppose I have to go now, Hiei will want to train."

He gave Kagome a look as he passed her but didn't do anything else. Yusuke was still glaring at Kagome until Kuwabara punch at his head.

"Come on Urashima, let's go train!"

Yusuke glared at Kagome one more time but followed Kuwabara out. Kagome sighed and rolled her eyes.

"Now what? I'll find the girls! I'm surrounded by males all the time a girls day will do me some good." Kagome mused to herself. "Yes, that's what I'll do."

Kagome smiled to herself and skipped out of the room, intent on finding all the females she knew that would be at the tournament.
