By: Arctic Kitsune Gypsy

The sun was nearly up and the loud "clickety, clack!" of Kurama's heels echoed throughout the neighborhood.

He was half way to the stoplight when he felt his hair being pulled. Kurama dropped his school bag and whipped his head around. "Who's there?!" A cheery, bubbly voice with an accent spoke. "It's me! Botan!"

Kurama placed a hand over his heart. "You almost gave me a heart attack." He bent down to pick up his leather school bag. "Glad you were you and not somebody else. What's going on?"

Botan threw her extended thumb back. "You have new neighbors, Kurama." He raised his left eyebrow. "I do?" She turned around on her heel and pointed the house left of his. "Yep, I heard that they're from Russia. The family was born here and lived for three years, then moved to China and lived there for three more years, last stop was Russia." Kurama crossed his arms over his chest. "I see. How old is he or she?" Botan brushed her blue hair back. "The brother is seventeen, like you. The sister is sixteen."

Kurama looked at his watch and spun on his heels. He began to walk down the street. Botan looked over her shoulder to see the back of Kurama's head. "Hey! Where are you going?" She ran up behind him and began to pull on his jacket.

He spoke without turning his head, not paying attention to the slight pull at the bottom of his jacket. "I would LOVE to make it to Mugan on time. I'll have time to read my book then." Botan stopped pulling on his jacket and moved beside him. "Alrighty. Where's Hiei? Doesn't he usually walk to school with you?" Kurama kept on walking without even looking at Botan. "Yes and he's probably still sleeping."

Botan carried her bag in front for her legs. "How stupid can he be to still be sleeping?! He lives ALL the way down the street, so he'll never get to school on time! THAT IGNORANT DELINQUENT!! HE'S A MOCKERY OF ALL THAT IS MUGAN!!!" Kurama shifted his eyes to Botan. "Calm down, Botan. Don't worry yourself over Hiei, he'll be fine." She looked up and saw the school building. "Haven't you noticed that the school looks like an office building with a big black gate in front of it.

Kurama lightly chuckled and pulled out his I.D. He placed the card in the small black box. A buzzer sounded, the lock opened, and the gate slowly opened to reveal a large colorful campus.

The campus was buzzing with young men in black suits and young girls in black knee-high skirts, black jackets, white blouses, and black stockings. Botan looked around the campus carefully. Kurama peered over to Botan and raised his eyebrow. "Who or what are you looking for?"

Botan looked up into Kurama's hypnotizing emerald eyes. "I'm looking for the twins that lived in Russia for ten years and Hiei too." He nodded and began to walk to the front door. She saw him leaving her side out of the corner of her eye. "Where are you going?"

He had his hand on the glass door's silver handle, ready to pull the glass door open. "I'm heading off to class. See you later." Kurama swung open the heavy, all glass door and headed toward the stairs to the Junior floor of the building. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw two people with long black hair walk swiftly past him.

Kurama stopped and felt a shiver run up his spine. "Who are they?" He thought. "Are they the new people Botan was talking about.?" The figure with hair that came past her rear, turned her head and smiled at Kurama. He gasped then returned the smile.

The two seemed to walk in sync. Each time they took a step, it was like they were a mirror images of one another. Kurama waited until they couldn't be seen up the stairs and he followed.

He opened the door to his homeroom and found that it was strangely quiet. Probably because Hiei and Kuwabara weren't here arguing their heads off in the back of the room. Kurama carefully scanned the room, looking for the two black haired people he saw.

Kurama shut the door to his homeroom and headed to his seat next to the window. He opened his school bag up and pulled up a thick white, hardback book. Kurama ran his hand over the cover and opened it too the little blue marker sticking out the side of the book. He began to read the old pages of the book.

A couple of minuets later he heard a sharp voice boom into the room.

"I'M NOT LATE!! I WAS IN HERE BEFORE THE BELL RANG!!! I HAVE WITNESSES!!"

The teacher looked at Hiei through his glasses and raised an eyebrow. "Mr. Jaganshi, I see that clearly. Now, get to your seat." Hiei spun on his heels and casually walked to his seat. Kurama didn't lift an eye to see Hiei make a complete fool of himself.

The door slowly opened and Kurama peered up from his book to see who it was. Two pale figures with long black hair walked calmly into the room. Kurama's eyes widened and he sat down his book.

A tall young man and a slightly shorter young woman stood in the front of the room. The young man had long black hair that fell to the middle of his thighs with violet highlights. His eyes matched his highlights, but were dead and showed little if NO emotion. The young woman was slightly shorter and her hair cam past her rear. Her eyes were cold and dead, like her brother's. Her bangs came directly to her forehead and covered her entire forehead; it was like she was trying to hide something from the world. Two locks of hair fell over her shoulders and came to her waist. Her face was a deathly white and showed no emotion, like a porcelain doll.

"Well class, we seem to have two new students come to Mugan Gawkin Academy." The teacher stood from his desk and shifted to the young woman. "What is your name, Miss?"

The girl stepped forward and bowed. "My name is Morgan. Morgan Le Fay Nanaka." Kurama sat down his book, crossed his legs, and folded his hands on the book, not taking his eyes off the twins.

"Okay Morgan." He pointed to the young man that stood close next to Morgan. "What is your name sir?" The young man stepped forward and bowed. "Karasu. Karasu Nanaka."

Kurama felt his heart drop. His eyes opened wide and a small gasp escaped his throat. He felt a sharp poke in his back. Kurama turned his eyes to his poker. "I thought you killed him, Kurama..." He turned his head around not taking his eyes off the Nanaka twins. "I thought I did too. His sister must have something to do with him still being alive."

Kuwabara, who was sitting next to Hiei, turned his body around to the two demons. "For Karasu's little sister, Morgan's a looker! She might even look better than Yukina!"

Hiei's eyes widened and a deep growl escaped his throat. He picked up the red pen that was sitting on his desk and turned to Kuwabara. "Say that again, you damn ignoramus, and I swear I'll shove this through your damn tender throat."

The teacher saw Hiei's threat and turned away from Karasu and Morgan. "Mr. Jaganshi! If you don't want to see detention AGAIN, I say it's best for you to put that pen down and face the front!" Hiei mumbled something under his breath and turned his body to the front.

Kurama couldn't take his eyes off Morgan and Karasu. The teacher spoke up to the class one more. "The Mr. Nanaka and Miss Nanaka lived her for awhile then moved to China, then from there to Russia. I believe we can all give them a happy friendly welcome to Mugan. Morgan, you can sit next to Mr. Minamino, who is next the window. Karasu, you can sit next to Morgan."

The twins bowed to the teacher and walked slowly to their seats. Kurama picked up his book and began to read. He hadn't noticed that Morgan was staring at his book. She finally spoke up in a deep, but elegant voice. "Rowek of Nol?"

Kurama looked up from his book at Morgan's lifeless eyes. "Why yes. Have you read it?" She smiled slightly and nodded. "I have, reading and writing is pretty much my life. Have you read The Chronicles of Nol, the sequel to Rowek of Nol?" He nodded. "I have not, how is it? Morgan pulled out a dark blue, gel pen and wrote something on a piece of paper. "Here Suichi. This is my number and address. Call or come by if you want to talk.

A bell rang to inform the students and teachers that the day has begun. Morgan smiled and waved "bye" to Kurama. He returned the smile and watched her run to catch up with her twin brother.
