Chapter 6: School blues
The clashing of metal rang throughout the house that Tuesday night.
"You're much better now than you were when we first fought," panted Hiei with his katana out.
"Thanks," mumbled Rei with her three swords out. Two were in her hands and one with held in her teeth.
"I don't see the point of three swords."
"Come attack me straight on and I'll show you." Hiei nodded and attacked her. Rei put her swords into a wide X stopping Hiei from cutting her in half.
"This still doesn't-" Rei's third sword came straight at Hiei's head. He was able to dodge it by ducking only to meet Rei's foot. Hiei got up and spit out some blood. "I see, you widened the X shape so you could swing your blade without it hitting the other swords. Swinging your head around caught me off guard. Cleaver."
"Thanks! The only problem is it hurts my neck." Rei's stomach started to growl. Rei blush and rubbed the back of her head. "Hey let's go get some food, okay?"
"Hn."
"YEAH!" Rei pranced out of the room, tripped down the stairs, and crawled to the kitchen. Hiei sighed and went down to the kitchen. When he got there he saw Rei happily eating raman.
'What's with her and raman?' he thought.
"You know what would be great with this?" she asked.
"No."
"Sake!"
"How old are you?"
"16!"
'Who gives a sixteen year old Sake…Yusuke,' Hiei sighed the last part. "Did Yusuke give you sake?"
"Nope! One of my friends made me drink it and got me drunk! I was instantly hooked."
'You might not have my power but you have my love for Sake,' came Kyoto's voice in Rei's head.
'Well you were the one that made me drink it,' Rei thought back.
"Rei?" called Hiei.
"Eh?"
"Koenma wants to see you."
"Oh, okay."
"YOU WANT ME TO DO WHAT?" yelled Rei.
"You heard me the first time." Said Koenma.
"But…but!"
"No buts! Jackal asked me to."
"But…YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! WHAT HAVE I EVER DONE TO YOU- don't answer that."
"End of discussion. You will still live at the house and you won't be alone." Anime tears flowed down Rei's face.
"Shuichi!" called two random girls. Kurama turned around as he entered the courtyard to his school on a beautiful Wednesday morning.
"Oh, hello ladies," he said politely. The two girls giggled and blushed.
"Are you ready for the chem. test today?" asked one of them who was wearing the shortest shirt you can imagine without it actually showing her butt. The other girl was wearing the same thing…well all the Shuichi fan club wore that. Can't say I'm surprised.
"Of course he's ready! I bet he doesn't even have to study," said the other girl.
Kurama sweat dropped. "Um…I study." 'Sometimes.' Kurama felt someone jump on his back and cover his eyes with their hands.
"Guess who?" yelled…take one guess. I'll give you some time. (Jeopardy song comes on.)……………If you guessed Hiei, your wrong but if you guessed Rei than your right! Kurama turned his head towards Rei.
"Rei?" he asked surprised.
"No fair, you peeked!" she pouted. Rei jumped off of Kurama's back. Kurama took a better look at her to see her in the Meiou (?) high school uniform. Lucky her shirt was the normal length, still short, but that's all the school gave her.
"What are you doing here?" he asked, still surprised.
"I was forced by Koenma," sighed Rei. "He said it was best I go here because I'll be less likely to skip with you watching me."
"That's…great."
"Come on! Come on!" said Rei tugging on his sleeve, "Take me to the office!" Rei didn't give Kurama time to react because she started dragging him across the courtyard with everyone staring at them including the Shuichi fan club. The two girls that were talking to Kurama just stood there. They pulled themselves together and ran to their leader.
"Oh look we have gym and art together!" said Rei.
'Some how I don't think that's a coincidence. If she were a year older we probably would have been in the same classes,' thought Kurama.
"Kurama, isn't this year going to be fun?"
"Yes. Oh and don't call me Kurama."
"Why?"
"People here know me by my human name, Shuichi."
"Shuichi? That's as weird as boys wearing pink uniforms and girls wearing red uniforms."
Kurama narrowed his eyes. "It's magenta." Rei looked at him funny.
"You're kidding, right? How does a guy know the difference? Are you gay?"
"NO I'M NOT GAY!"
"Touchy…look there is nothing wrong with being gay, you don't have to deny it."
"I'm not gay!"
"I understand."
"I don't think you do." Rei started walking away. "Rei? Rei!" Rei just kept walking. Where she was going? I don't know…Anyway Kurama ran after her. It was still early so he showed Rei where all her classes were. When the bell rang Kurama went to his classroom, room 2-D only to be bombarded by girls.
"Shuichi were demand to know who that girl was!" shouted one girl.
"Yeah tell us who she is!" shouted another. Other 'yeah's' followed.
"Just an old friend." Kurama sweat dropped.
"Class we have a new student, Rei Hino," said the teacher. Most of the girls in the classroom glared at her. "Rei why don't you tell us about yourself."
"Like what?" she asked ignoring the glares.
"Where you're from and what you like."
"Okay. My favorite color is purple, I like martial arts and I'm from…Kyoto. Yeah, Kyoto."
"And you're man stealer!" shouted one of the girls.
Rei tilted her head to the side. "Huh?"
"You stole our Shuichi!"
'Shuichi? Who's that…Oh yeah, Kurama…STOLE HIM?'
"What do you mean 'stole him'?" Rei shouted. "You think me and Shuichi are…AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's funny! Don't worry were just friends."
"Then how do you know him?" asked another girl.
"From my job. Right, my job."
"You two work together?"
"Yeah you can say that." The room erupted in chatter.
"A job! That makes him even hotter."
"Not that he could get any hotter!"
"I wonder where he works!"
"It's probably some big company that he keeps from going bankrupted!"
"Yeah or some where he gets all hot a sweaty!" All the girls grew silent while daydreaming about Kurama all sweaty and a lot drooled a little.
"Hey lets just ask Rei what he does!"
"Yeah!" All the girls turned to stare at Rei. The whole time she was just sweat dropping.
"Huh?" she said.
"What does Shuichi do?"
"He ah…he solves cases…yeah," Rei said.
"Like a detective?"
"Yeah works for me."
"That's so noble!" Once again talking erupted in the room.
"That's enough! Get back to work!" yelled the teacher. Instantly the class did what it was told.
"SHUICHI!" Rei yelled running up to him. She couldn't stop in time so she latched on to Kurama's arm, spinning him around.
"Rei! Rei!" said Kurama still spinning.
They finally managed to stop somehow and patted him on the shoulder. "You are now an official detective! Good job!"
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"Well…" So Rei told him the whole story about what happen in class.
"You told them I was a detective?" asked Kurama.
"Well it's not really a lie,"
"Did they really drool?"
"Yup…come on, come on it's time for art, it's time for art!" yelled Rei.
"Okay, okay!"
The day went by and it was finally the last period of the day, gym. The girl and boy classes were going to compete against each other in a race.
"Okay girls lets win this race and not let the boys win like you always do," said the coach.
"We can't help it Shuichi's so hot and fast."
"Yeah we don't to make him sad."
"Will anyone here not let him win?" sighed the coach.
"I won't." said Rei. The coach looked at her.
"You fast?"
"I was one of the fastest at my old school."
"Alright, I'll give you a try." The fan girls glared at her.
"You better not hurt his feelings!" said one girl who seemed to be the leader. She had long brown hair, brown eyes, and way to much makeup.
'She makes it sound like I'm going to break up with him,' thought Rei.
The second to last leg started their lap and the four final leg racers went to their spots.
"Hey Shuichi! Guess what I'm going to race you!" said Rei.
"You wont let me win will you?" he asked.
"Of course not!"
'Beat him! Beat him, beat him, beat him!'
'What's your problem with Kurama?'
'Nothing it's Youko I have a problem with!'
'Okay…' The racers were coming closer with the boys in the lead.
"You want to make a bet?" asked the boy's coach. "If my boy's win you buy me dinner at any restaurant I want!"
"You're on!" shouted the Rei's coach.
"Oh and Barbara?" said the coach.
"What, Joe?" asked Coach Barbara.
"I like lobster."
"ER! YOU BETTER WIN REI!"
"Yes ma'am!" saluted Rei. Kurama's teammate came first and he sped off. Shortly after Rei's teammate came and she went to catch up with him.
"Hey Shuichi!" yelled Rei running right beside him.
"Hi."
"You know I would love to chat, but I have a race to win! Bye!" she quickly took the lead, leaving Kurama stunned. Coach Barbara gasped, along with everyone else.
"We're going to win! We're going to win!" she chanted. "Oh and Joe I like lobster and caviar."
"Come on Shuichi!" yelled Joe.
"No way I'm letting her win that easily." Kurama ran faster catching up to Rei. She saw him coming and sped up even more. In the end Rei won but only by a little.
"WE WON! WE WON! WE WON!" shouted the coach squeezing Rei to death.
"I need air!" yelled Rei.
"Sorry!"
"Shuichi, how could you?" cried his coach.
"I'm sorry, she caught me off guard," said Kurama.
"That's not like."
"I know. Again, I'm sorry."
"It's okay. Just everyone go back to locker room."
"You made Shuichi sad!" yelled a fangirl.
"Actually I think-"
"Don't argue with us! We know him best!" Kurama came over to Rei and held out his hand. Rei took and they shook.
"Good job. I look forward to are next race," he said
"So you can lose again?"
"No so I can beat you."
"Like that will happen."
"Shuichi, your not sad?" asked a fangirl.
"Why would I be? It was a close race."
"That's so cool!" all the fangirls erupted in squeals.
"Girls get back to the locker room!" shouted the now happy Coach Barbara.
"You just don't want to admitted!" said Rei walking pizza shop where Kuwabara and Yusuke were waiting.
"Won't admit what?" asked Yusuke already stuffing his face with pizza.
"That he's gay," said Rei snatching a piece of pizza for Yusuke.
"I am not gay!" shouted Kurama.
"Um-hum. Yusuke, Kuwabara what color is his uniform?"
"Pink."
"See. Only a guy that's straight would call it pink." Just then Hiei and Botan came in.
"I found him!" said Botan.
"Hn."
"Okay, one more guy. Hiei what color is this?"
"Magenta," smirked Hiei. Rei's jaw dropped.
"Why are all the hot guys gay?" cried Rei.
"WE ARE NOT GAY!"
"Hey what about us?" asked Yusuke.
"Yeah we're not gay," said Kuwabara.
"Um…look more pizza!"
"So Rei, why are you in a school uniform?" asked Botan
"Koenma made me go to Kurama's school. Geez those fangirls are scary."
"You going to have to get use to it," said Kurama.
"Yeah I know," sighed Rei.
"So Hiei how was your first day without me?" asked Rei on their way home.
"Quiet."
"But you did miss me right?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because you're annoying."
"That's not nice."
"The world isn't nice."
"You're a loser." Hiei looked at her and went up to his room. "What?"
The week went by and Saturday came.
"Hey everyone look who's here!" yelled Botan. Everyone looked away from their activities to the door and in came…
