Another day that may only be a dream, A KuramaXOC

Story Format as always:
Youko's Thoughts: ^Yatta Yatta Blah? ^
Kurama speaking to Youko in his head/his own thoughts: *Blah Blah Yatta Meh. *
Inner thoughts of other characters: 'Meh Meh Yeah!'
Sinhalese is a REAL language and does come from Sri Lanka!
Anything said in Sinhalese: "Why do you ask so many questions?!"
A Few Inventions from the Spirit Lab! (Really my creations...-cue evil laugh)
Detection Plant: Yet another device that Kurama has created, basically a hybrid of your typical human world Ficus and demon plant. This plant upholds the ability to detect negative demon or spirit energy. Is also useful as a pet or guard "dog" and can communicate with whom it chooses.
To keep in mind (Non-spirit lab-related):
The Anrokku Isei of pain [ An-roku-Is-hi] (Unlock the power of pain): An evil, rare, powerful, tiny red seed. Used by the demon enemy Aiden against Aisha. The seed forces any dormant abilities to awaken but also awakens the ugliest of irrational emotions. Pain, fear, hate, and anger only allow its host's mental destruction to grow at a faster rate. Side effects vary species to species however include weakness, dizziness, headaches, confusion, vomiting, internal bleeding, burns, consistent bleeding, permanent psychological damage, and death.
PLEASE REVIEW, IT HELPS! Flaming is welcomed.

Chapter 25: Warning Signs and an Ungolden Feather Part II
(DAY TWO) 6 pm
Kurama's POV:
The tracking plant I left Aisha for some protection has been giving off signs of a paranormal presence, but for some reason, it is not faring well with keeping it at bay or obtaining information as to what it is exactly.
*How strange…Though I do wonder if this presence is from my world…or is it one that has simply manifested in this one? *
^Even I cannot tell the difference. ^
*That's strange, either way, I should try to contact her again. *
I cannot stop thinking about how abnormal my interaction with Aisha's friend, Aurora was at lunch. The blonde girl stated she feels uneasy around me, my eyes are kind of terrifying to her, and to quote her "it's as if he's trying to evaluate beyond us." This human has sharp senses, perhaps sharp enough to be aware of the paranormal. There are multiple factors in this world that continue to catch me off guard.
I stop by Aisha's apartment building, but she does not answer any of my phone calls. I understand she wanted to distance herself from me, but knowing the seed, Anrokku Isei could be attracting terrible entities to her is also concerning.

I return around 3 am and peer into her room. This time making sure her household is sleeping. I don't think I'll ever live down the fact that I was mistaken as an apparition... Youko commends me for being so "humorous". Respecting her wishes for space, I leave a packet of healing seeds and a note on her windowsill. I smile to myself noting the rose I left for her is hanging in the corner of her window. My detection plant greets me favorably and I tell him to continue protecting Aisha.
As I make my rounds in the city, I attempt to contact Koenma and Botan.
"If only I could get ahold of either of them." I sigh, doing my best not to allow worrisome thoughts to cloud my judgment.

(DAY 3) 4 pm
Aisha's POV:
Looks like Kurama stopped by (even though I told him I didn't want to deal with him). He was nice enough to leave some healing seeds and taking them has given me relief from this blaring headache and my damned shoulder.
Yesterday, I didn't get much sleep, the reason being? Simple, my stupid pain, nightmares lingering and my cell phone going nuts every five to ten minutes from a text message. Even shoving the semi damaged phone in a drawer and shutting it off doesn't drown out its annoyance!
The first couple times I read the one-word messages, it's pretty much like random gibberish, like the stupid breathing creeper calls I got yesterday. Either way, if I could, I'd give this freakazoid a good piece of my mind, but the phone number is invalid…and to be honest I'm starting to feel a little worried.
I must be losing my mind regardless, considering I saw another ghostly smoke thing appear in my room…Maybe the bloody letter is just an unrelated stupid prank too?
Text messages in order throughout the night:
Force.
Eagle.
Substance.
Piece.
God.
Kin.
Flame.
Above.
Revenge.
Yearn.
Feeble.
Glorious.
Erase.

(DAY 4)
Another day has passed and yet not even Mr. Red ghost (Kurama) has texted me. I'm used to my friends not really doing it, but I figure after what happened with that damned shift shaper, he'd be a little worried.
'Who am I kidding, why would anyone care for a jerk like me? Besides I did tell him to fuck off…'
Once again, I'm in front of my old laptop, trying to think of reasons why I'm being 'pranked'. The clock now happens to read 5:50 pm.
I sigh and decide to open up Joogle Chrome again. This time entering a Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Site Forum.
Today's topic? Character bashing…
'My least favorite thing to do, but just might cheer me up.' I explain to myself.
Useless reason is thrown around but oddly enough I keep reading.
"Yusukes a butt-headed prick that should be kicked off the anime, Kurama should be the main character hes sex on legs!"- Gl1mmerWh0024
'Seems like you're the real retard…Yusuke's the first main character! And really sex on legs? Sounds like to me you're one of those psycho "fans" that stalk 24/7.' I comment to myself and start playing music, Without Reason by The Fray ironically echoes.
As I sing along to the lyrics, my eyes ghost over to the other comments, and I find myself laughing a bit.
"Personally, I find all of them pathetic, especially mr. girly ass. Hate how they all have to scream out their stupid weapons, "bitch slap rose whiplash!
-Nan0Claw67
'As idiotic and mean that was, it would be kind of funny to imagine! Though I seriously doubt he would be happy to read that.' In my head, I try to imagine my favorite redhead acting girly and I burst into a fit of giggles.
"its anime wat do u expect? lol bitchslapping Kurama hes a fag too but i hate that ugly stupid orange-haired monkey da most gets on my nerves 2 much"
-SeductiveHumorDragon
"The fuck? How the hell is he a fag? Kuwabara is amazing and freaking hilarious." I rant out loud.
"Tell me about it! The girly clown pussy and the brainless orangutan! That loser emo antisocial is just as dumb! He must be a sparkling vampire under that cape and bandana!"-ToWelrmmi
'That's distasteful. Comparing cool ass Hiei to Twright! Ew.'
"Bitch I hate is that ditzy blue-haired hoe, a lot like bubble gum is to hair, impossible to get rid of let's kill it!"-Bronzekite
'Wow, then why the hell are these morons commenting on a Yu Yu Hakusho FAN site in the first place?'
"What about that other stupid bitch, Keiko, Yusuke should be with me! If she was real, I'd stab her with a pitchfork!"-Jake5464
A bit of anger rises within myself; I never would have guessed that by 'character bashing' would mean tearing down main characters!
"What the hell is this? Yeah, you're entitled to your own opinion, but it sounds like to me you're all just trashing and burning Yu Yu Hakusho with no reasoning, get a freaking life! Why the heck do you feel the need to insult the main characters? Go find something else to step on. They are all amazing and unique characters that-
Before I can add on to my argument and click post, the internet tab disappears. And a strange error appears. A jpg of a moving plant vine creepily worms down the internet page as if to grab a hold of something, it almost looks 3-D.
'I don't know whether to say it's cool or freaky...must be a new feature…'
I decide to brush it off, restart Joogle Chrome, and check my emails, hoping my friend Ran from Las Vegas has responded to my email yet.
Ran was a close friend of mine that moved away last year, but we still keep in touch. During the summertime, I was able to visit her and she's just a wonderful breath of fresh air. She's the type of person who isn't afraid to speak her mind and I totally look up to her.
'I wonder if I should tell her my poster got stolen…and I almost died; maybe she'd believe me...She is a little unhinged.'
At the same time, I hide all my bookmarks to almost anything related to Yu Yu Hakusho, just in case a certain redhead ever gets curious. I also hide my pictures in a computer file though labeling it 'Animes'. This process takes a while.
As I go back to the email tab, a smile forms on my face as I spot an email message from Ran!
Just before I can click it open, my phone goes off playing its new ringtone, Carry on, by Avenged Sevenfold. It's Kurama calling.
Kurama's POV:
"At last you decide to answer your cell phone."
"What? My phone hasn't rung all day." She responds sounding a bit angry.
"I have been calling you for quite a while; I even tried contacting you yesterday and the day before." I explain, perhaps she wishes to pretend she hasn't ignored my calls?
"Really now?" Her voice muses. "Yeah Kurama, my phone's still acting stupid, probably decided it doesn't like you."
"I'm going to have to doubt that scenario, though don't you suppose ignoring your friends is a bit harsh?" I ask, wanting some sort of answer.
"Wait…what? I haven't had any phone calls from any of them. My phone's probably busted."
Her voice indicates truth, but something else seems to be just below the surface.
"That should be expected, after all, it did get wet. Anyway, how are you feeling?" I ask. "Did you take the healing seeds?"
"I'm fine, thanks. I'm just checking emails Mr. Nosy. By the way, what the heck is up with your crazy plant, he growls way too much-" She stops abruptly and a gasp escapes from her lips.
"Aisha? Is something wrong?" I question obviously.
"N-no, it's nothing…" She trails off, but I then say,
"I didn't realize nothing causes people to gasp. Tell me, has anything else been going on?"
Before she can repeat the same lie, I interrupt her. "Even if you don't tell me right now, I will find out sooner or later. Please keep in mind that I am on your side."
"Then you can find out freaking later! G-gosh you're so irritating!" Her voice cracks fear seeping through it, but my ears detect it clearly.
"I will be there in ten minutes-"
"No! I don't want to e-explain anything to my family-besides, I doubt you will be able to smooth-talk your way in-Don't bother coming!" She barks, I can sense additional pain and terror in her speech.
"I apologize, but I will have to see how your wound is healing, I will come past mid-night if that works with you, Ais-"
"That won't work! My dad comes home at that time from work and they don't go to sleep until two or three am…There's no point in you coming, j-just telling you- I'm fine!" The nervousness in her voice is simple to detect, more of her emotions are spilling out.
*Now is not the time to be putting up a brave front. *
To be continued…
My notes: This chapter is 8 pages long on 12 inch font. I admit I am having troubling focusing on writing (a best friend of mine got CoVid19 and another friend's sweet mother caught it too…). Still, I will keep writing. Thanks for reading.
Update Dec 2020: Both best friend and friend's mother have recovered!
Please review, I'd really appreciated it!
