Kurama's fall from Grace
 
Chapter 8
 
Kagome was now walking home from school. She had quit successfully ignored Kurama for the rest of the day. Which was not easy seeing as how they were stuck together in the rest of their classes. Kurama did try to apologize, but it seems that his brains had turned to mush, since all he managed to do was dig himself into deeper trouble. Causing Youko to mumble and yell within his head. Normally Kurama could charm opposite sex no problem, but Kagome was proving to be the exception. For some reason she was immune. He even had Youko turn on the Kitsune charm. That was a terrible mistake and succeeded on making Kagome even angrier. They were in cooking class when this happened.
 
“Kagome, are you planning on ignoring me all day?” Kurama asked.
 
“Hm.” Was the only answer Kagome would give him. Still smarting over his comment over mixed signals.
 
*Come on Kurama, have I taught you nothing? Turn on the charm.* Youko demanded.
 
*If I use the Kitsune charm on her, it may make it worse. On both of us.* Kurama pointed out reasonably.
 
*Well she'll only be angry if it doesn't work. Come on, have you ever known that charm not to work?* Youko demanded.
 
Kurama gave this some serious thought, and couldn't think of one single instance in which the charm failed to work. *No I do not believe it has failed to work before.*
 
*So what are you waiting for!* Youko demanded.
 
*Fine, it's worth a try.* Kurama finally agreed.
 
“Kagome, will you at least look at me?” Kurama asked. He was getting desperate. For some reason he couldn't stand it when this particular girl was angry with him.
 
Kagome, finally deciding that maybe she was going a bit overboard in being mad at Kurama sighed and turned to look at him. Only to be caught in his eyes, which had flashes of gold in them. At first Kagome couldn't even remember why she was angry with Kurama to begin with. When a sudden memory made it's way to her subconscious.
 
“Kagome, you must be careful when you are around other Kitsunes. Especially if you are trying to ignore them. Kitsunes hate to be ignored and will try most anything to make sure that doesn't happen. Especially if they are attracted to their opponent. Don't ever look straight into their eyes. If you do please remember this trick to de-spell yourself. This is a secret that is only known to Kitsunes, and only Kitsunes are allowed to know this secret.” Shippo told Kagome.
 
“If it is only a secret for Kitsunes, then why are you telling me?” Kagome asked.
 
“Because, to me, you are my mother.” Shippo said shyly.
 
“Oh Shippo, do you really mean it?” Kagome asked. She already felt as if Shippo was her own son, but to hear him call her mother, it meant the world to her.
 
“Yeah. You don't mind?” He said nervously.
 
“Of course not. I already see you as my son. But Shippo you do know that I may not always be here. I may be pulled back to my time. If it were up to me I'd stay here with you.” Kagome asked worriedly. She really dreaded leaving her son, because she really did not want to leave him behind.
 
“I know Mom, but I'll take what I can get. I will live for you just wait and see. You will see me in your future someday. Now the secret to de-spell yourself from your opponent, especially one that you find yourself extremely attractive one is to suddenly picture them in their most unattractive forms. Make them unattractive to you in that instant.” Shippo finally told her.
 
When Kagome came back from that memory, she suddenly had the picture of cool, proper, and controlled Kurama in a tri colored Mohawk. Wearing a pink waitress uniform and a tiara on his head. He was holding a microphone in one hand and a six pack of beer on the other trying to sing. The image was so hilarious that Kagome was instantly de-spelled from the charm Kurama was trying to pull on her.
 
*Youko, Kurama, you both are both so dead.* Kagome whispered menacingly to them.
 
Youko gulped. *Looks like we're in for it now red.*
 
*I thought you said no one was immune.* Kurama said reproachfully.
 
*How was I to know she wouldn't fall for it.* Youko defended himself.
 
“Suichi, doesn't our pie look good?” Kagome asked sweetly.
 
Kurama, confused by her change in voice dumbly nodded his head.
 
“Would you like a taste? I'm sure you would like some of this delicious strawberry pie.” She asked, her tone getting more sugary sweet.
 
“It would be my pleasure to taste our pie Kagome.” Kurama said.
 
Before Kurama could guess her intentions, Kagome gave a small shriek as if she were startled at something and the pie fell on Kurama's face.
 
“Kagome Higurashi, why did you do that to Suichi?” Demanded their cooking teacher.
 
Kagome put on her innocent face when she replied. “I'm sorry, but Suichi started me, and before I knew it the pie was all over his face. I didn't mean to.” And gave the teacher as well as the rest of the room her famous puppy eyes. The kind in which no one has been able to resist. Kurama also fell into those eyes.
 
“Suichi? Is this true?” The teacher demanded of him.
 
“Yes Ma'am. I didn't mean to startle her, but I did.” Kurama covered for Kagome.
 
“Very well.” The teacher said and then left them alone.
 
“So how does the pie taste Suichi?” Kagome asked sweetly.
 
Kurama sighed, “It was delicious.”
 
“Good.” Was all Kagome would say to him and proceeded to ignore him for the rest of the day again. Any thoughts about being too hard on him were squashed when he tried the Kitsune charm on her.
 
School was now over, causing Kagome a huge sigh of relief. Kurama followed sedately behind Kagome as she quickly walked home to Genkai's. She now saw Genkai's shrine as home. She was still ignoring Kurama, which was why he was now walking behind her instead of next to her as was usual. By the time Kagome arrived at Genkai's it was now about 5:00 in the afternoon. Her date wouldn't be picking her up till seven. She really didn't want to go, but she gave her word.
 
“Genkai I'm home.” Kagome yelled as she walked into the house.
 
“Hello Kagome.” Genkai greeted.
 
“Grandma, can I have permission to go out tonight? I was asked out on a date.” Kagome asked, hoping she would say no.
 
Yusuke, having heard Kagome yell that she was home, immediately ran to where she was. Only to hear she was going out on a date. As he saw Kurama walk in behind her, he immediately thought that Kurama was her date.
 
“Fox boy finally asked you out?” Yusuke taunted. In truth he wouldn't mind taking her out either.
 
“Kurama? No he didn't ask me out. A boy in school ask me to go with him to the movies.” Kagome said calmly.
 
“Kurama I'm disappointed in you. Yusuke I can understand, but you. You must be losing it boy. And they say Kitsunes are suppose to be charmers.” Genkai said bluntly, causing Kurama to blush and Yusuke to yell.
 
“What do you mean by that you Old Hag. You're not letting Kagome go out with some weirdo!” Yusuke yelled.
 
“Sit! Erik is not a weirdo. He is a very nice boy.” Kagome defended.
 
“What time is he picking you up?” Genkai asked.
 
“Seven.” Kagome replied.
 
“Fine you can have the night off. You work too hard as it is.” Genkai informed her.
 
“WHAT? ARE YOU CRAZY YOU OLD HAG!” Yusuke yelled as the spell finally wore off.
 
“SIT!” And Yusuke kissed the floor again. “Stop calling Genkai an Old Hag, before I try out a different word on you.” Kagome warned. “Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get and get ready for my `Date'.” She said cheerfully.
 
“Kagome isn't your date scheduled to arrive in two hours?” Kurama asked confused.
 
“Exactly, two hours is not nearly enough time to get ready.” Kagome informed him and proceeded to go upstairs.
 
“Come on you two slackers, there are some people I think you should meet.” Genkai said and motioned them to follow her.
 
Yusuke and Kurama followed curious as to whom Genkai was referring to. When the came into the Kitchen it was to see Hiei standing in the shadows, Yukina sitting at the table drinking tea, and three strangers conversing. One of the strangers was obviously a demon. The other two however, were difficult for Kurama to read.
 
“Kurama, Yusuke, I want you to meet some old friends of mine. These are Sango, Miroku, and Higaro.” Genkai introduced as she pointed to each one as she said their names.
 
“Can't be that old, they're younger than you.” Yusuke said with a smirk.
 
“Nice to meet you, I am Kurama.” Kurama said politely.
 
“Shut your trap slacker. These three are older than I am.” Genkai pointed out, causing Yusuke's mouth to drop open in shock, and Kurama to get confused.
 
Higaro looked at Yusuke and was confused because of his brightly colored hair, he was about to ask what type of demon he was when he heard him make a comment.
 
“So Hiei where were you hiding?” Yusuke taunted with a smirk. Causing Hiei, Sango, and Higaro to stiffen. Amusement lining Miroku.
 
“Who said I was hiding detective.” Hiei said stiffly.
 
“We haven't seen you since you went all girly.” Yusuke said.
 
“Yes Hiei, where have you been? Kagome has been worried.” Kurama replied.
 
“Took it out on you, did she fox?” Hiei smirked.
 
Kurama stiffened. Hiei's comment struck to close to home. “She is scary when angered Hiei. Very scary.” He muttered, causing Sango and Miroku to chuckle. They remembered her temper all to well.
 
“Hey shorty, you haven't answered my question. Where were you hiding?” Yusuke demanded.
 
“None of your business detective.” Hiei told him bluntly.
 
“Excuse me, but what type of demon are you exactly? I have never seen one with hair that color before.” Higaro asked.
 
“Yes, I too would like to know. In all my years, I have never seen a demon with hair such as yours.” Miroku asked curiously. He had read up on the detective and knew that wasn't his real hair color. He had a feeling the detective must've angered Kagome in some way. Shippo did rub off on her.
 
Yusuke turned red as he remembered that he didn't have a cap on, and started mumbling about pranks and scary girls. “Miroku, do you think Kagome did that to him?” Sango asked her companion quietly.
 
Miroku sighed, a glint of amusement dancing in his eyes. “I'm afraid so. Remember who her favorite playmate was.” He reminded her.
 
“Shippo. I see he really did rub off on her.” Sango said in amusement. “I wonder what else she did to him?” Then suddenly felt someone nudge her mind.
 
*I have pictures.* Hiei offered Sango.
 
Sango was surprised that he would finally talk to her. He hadn't spoken to her since they had left Koenma's, but she would constantly feel his eyes upon her. *Will you share?*
 
Hiei inwardly shuddered as Sango's voice came across his mind. For some reason, her voice made him tremble. He had a feeling that he knew her, but couldn't remember when or where he met her. She was like some long lost forgotten dream.
 
*Of course.* Hiei silently replied. He just had to be closer to her. Just being this close to her brought him some peace. Peace he wasn't even aware that existed, not for him.
 
“Introductions with the Miko will have to wait. She is getting ready for a date. Which is about time someone asked her out. She works too hard.” Genkai stated bluntly.
 
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT OLD HAG!!” Yusuke yelled.
 
“Well, neither you nor Kurama have bothered to ask her out. Who knows, maybe this boy may just be what Kagome needs.” She taunted. Getting the reaction she wanted from both boys. Yusuke blustered, not knowing what to say to that.
 
Kurama stiffened. *Quick, let's kill the bastard. No one should be allowed to touch `our' Kagome.*
 
*Yes let's.* Kurama agreed.
 
*WHAT!?!* Youko demanded. *We can't kill him, Kagome would kill us!*
 
Kurama sighed. *Very well. But we can spy can't we?*
 
*Good boy. You're learning.* Youko said approvingly.
 
“Yusuke, it has been a while since I have seen a good movie. What do you say we go and see what's playing?” Kurama offered.
 
Yusuke looked a little confused at first, but then quickly caught on. “Yeah I heard a new movie was playing tonight, it should start a little after seven. Hey grandma, you don't mind if I skip training tonight do you?”
 
Genkai smirked, and took her time answering. It seems she got the reaction she was waiting for. “Go ahead dimwit. Make sure he doesn't try anything on Kagome. Will you be going as well Hiei?” Genkai asked the little demon.
 
“Hn.” Was all Hiei would say. Of course he was going, he was just going to be more subtle than those two fools. He didn't want anything to happen to his sister.
 
“Okay you three will stay here with me and Yukina, while those three morons go and spy on Kagome.” Genkai smirked.
 
Two hours later Kagome's date had arrived. It didn't calm Yusuke one little bit when he saw how handsome Kagome's date was. To further irritate the detective, Kagome was wearing a one piece, sleeveless black dress that seemed to cling to Kagome. She also had a silver chained belt hanging low on her hips and was wearing thigh high boots. The dress was short. She still wore her hair down, but had expertly applied make-up. This caused Kurama, Youko, and Yusuke to drool. By the time they recovered their wits, Kagome had left with Erik.
 
“Kurama, what were you thinking letting her go out with that!” Yusuke said angrily.
 
“She agreed when I wasn't around Yusuke.” Kurama tried to defend himself as they got ready to follow.
 
“Have fun fox.” Hiei said, as he stood casually in the shadows.
 
*I'll give you have fun.* Youko mumbled incoherently.
 
When Yusuke and Kurama left, Hiei went to look for the other three. He found them in the living room sitting on the sofa's casually. “Would any of you like to accompany me in watching those two make fools of themselves.” He offered. In truth he wanted to be with the tajiya, but would settle with having everyone crowding in. Genkai and Yukina looked a bit shocked at being invited but they just couldn't miss the opportunity of watching Kurama's downfall. The detective was always embarrassing himself, but Kurama, now that would be a sight to see.
 
“I wouldn't miss it.” Miroku immediately agreed. He couldn't wait to see Kagome. Plus he thought it would be entertaining to see these two muck it up. Not as entertaining as watching Koga and Inuyasha, but entertaining none the least.
 
“Count me in.” Higaro said with a smirk. He so loved watching others humiliate themselves.
 
“I'm in.” Sango answered briefly. She just wanted to be nearer to Hiei, but she had to admit, it did sound like fun.
 
“I would love to come.” Yukina said shyly.
 
“I wouldn't miss it.” Genkai smirked.
 
And so the six of them followed Yusuke and Kurama to the movies. They were all eager to see those two humiliate themselves. Or at the very least, see how those two deal with Kagome's wrath. It was going to be a very entertaining night.
 
As Kagome was standing in line with Erik, they were contemplating on what to watch. Now Kagome likes romance films as much as the next girl, but she absolutely adored horror films. Something about them just called out to her.
 
“So Kagome why don't we watch this one.” Erik said pointing to a chick flick. “I hear that it's a good movie.”
 
Kagome looked at the one he pointed at, and it looked too girly for her tastes. She then glanced at an other movie and saw one she had been wanting to see. “How about that one?” She asked. It was a horror movie about a haunted house.
 
Erik looked dubiously at her. Personally, he hated Horror movies and got nightmares whenever he saw them. But he didn't want to appear a wimp so quickly agreed. Truth be told, he would much rather watch a chick flick.
 
Meanwhile, Kagome had not yet caught sight of Kurama and Yusuke. Kurama was desperately trying to hear what Kagome and Erik were talking about. He wanted to get into the same movie as those two. Which was not easy, considering that Yusuke could not keep quiet.
 
“What are they saying?” Yusuke demanded for what seemed like the tenth time in less that 20 seconds.
 
Kurama sighed. “They are discussing what movie to watch. Erik wants to watch some romantic movie and Kagome wants to see a horror one.”
 
“A chick flick, no way!” Yusuke cried out. He truly hated movies that he termed a chick flick.
 
“Do not worry Yusuke, they chose a horror movie.” Kurama told him calmly. And proceeded to go and buy their tickets.
 
Hiei had been telling them of Erik's thoughts. The males snickered at the thought of another male wanting to see a chick flick rather than a horror movie. As soon as Hiei saw them all disappear into the theater, he led them all to the ticket stands, where he generously paid for their tickets. Since Koenma had started paying him for his services, Hiei had been saving his money. He had nothing he wanted to buy, and had no bills to pay, so his money just accumulated.
 
Kagome and Erik were now standing at the concessions stand getting popcorn and soda. Erik bought a large popcorn to share and would have gotten a large soda as well, if Kagome hadn't spoken up and asked for her own. With munchies on hand they went to their seats.
 
Yusuke and Kurama also bought some popcorn and soda. They bought their own. Kurama got a medium popcorn and large soda, while Yusuke got a large popcorn and large soda. They then followed Kagome and Erik to their seats.
 
Hiei paid for his companions munchies. He bought Yukina some chocolate candies to go with her popcorn and soda. Sango got nachos and a soda. Genkai, Miroku, and Higaro simply ordered popcorn and a soda. Now Hiei, being the sweet tooth that he is, ordered a big bowl of ice cream, and tons of chocolate.
 
Kagome and Erik chose the middle row, and sat in the middle of that row. Kurama and Yusuke sat two rows further up, kept Erik and Kagome in perfect sight. They wanted to make sure that Erik didn't try anything with her. Hiei and others sat at the very top where they could watch all the action. They didn't want to miss a thing.
 
Yusuke and Kurama kept the pair in sight as the movie progressed. At one point Erik faked a yawn and was about to put his arm around Kagome when Yusuke fired a weak energy blast to the back of his head. Causing Erik to drop his arm and rub his head. He looked around trying to figure out what happened.
 
“Good shot Yusuke. You have improved.” Kurama complimented.
 
“Thanks.” Yusuke smirked.
 
Kagome had long since noticed their presence, but had decided to ignore them and try to have some fun. She knew who fired that shot and decided to have some fun with those two. She knew that they wouldn't risk letting themselves be known if she did something. Erik was fine for target practice, but she wasn't. When a particular gruesome scene came on, Kagome pretended to get grossed out and hid her head in Erik's chest, causing the boy to turn red. Yusuke almost stood up to beat up on the guy, if it hadn't been for Kurama holding him down. Well Kurama and a few others telling them to be quiet.
 
*Why are you stopping him. Let him go and kill that boy for us.* Youko demanded.
 
*If he went down there, not only will he get caught, but us as well.* Kurama told him calmly. *I don't know about you, but I don't want Kagome to get even angrier at us that she already is.*
 
*Good point. Hold the idiot down.* Youko said approvingly.
 
Kagome then straightened up and smirked. She had heard the whole conversation between Youko and Kurama. This is going to be fun. She thought to herself.
 
As Erik had his hand in the popcorn bag, Kagome casually reached in for some popcorn. Knowing full well that he wouldn't let an opportunity to hold hands go by. Erik quickly latched onto her hand and held it. Kurama and Yusuke were both furious that `their' Kagome was holding hands with someone else. Kurama decided it was his turn to do something.
 
“Calm yourself Yusuke. I believe it is my turn.” Kurama told Yusuke calmly.
 
He sent quickly shot one of his seeds at free hand. The seed hit and rubbed off on his hand leaving behind an itchy substance. Erik tried to ignore the itching on his other hand, but soon couldn't handle it as he quickly let go of Kagome's hand to scratch it. Kagome quickly took her hand back and got some popcorn to munch on.
 
“Nice. I couldn't do better myself.” Yusuke complimented.
 
Kagome then leaned close to Erik's ear and whispered something quietly. So quickly that Kurama was unable to pick it up. Yusuke quickly sent another small energy ball and nicked Erik's ear. Causing him to break away from Kagome.
 
Kagome had just simply leaned close to ask something about the movie when she felt an energy ball quickly pass between her and Erik. She looked at his ear and noticed that whatever it was had nicked him. Erik was now rubbing his ear and starting to think that maybe this movie theater was haunted or something.
 
“Good shot. Though that was close.” Kurama said.
 
“Yeah tell me about.” Yusuke replied.
 
The rest of the time passed with Kurama and Yusuke taking turns on making sure that Erik and Kagome didn't get to close to each other. Poor Erik, between Yusuke and Kurama he was getting bruised from something that kept hitting him, and it appeared he was quickly developing some rash.
 
Hiei had been informing everyone Erik's thoughts as everything happened. They all agreed, they had never seen such a funny movie before.
 
After the movie, Erik asked Kagome if she would like to walk home. He wanted to spend some more time with Kagome and figured that walking her home would provide it. As they crossed a park on the way to Genkai's, Kurama and Yusuke were busy hiding behind bushes and trees. Every time Erik would try to hold Kagome's hand, he would trip over a vine.
 
Erik was getting up off the ground for the fifth time that evening. “I'm sorry Kagome, I don't know what's wrong with me today.” Erik said blushing.
 
“It's okay Erik. There is no need to apologize.” Kagome was really feeling sorry for him. She knew that his clumsiness had nothing to do with him, but with a very jealous Kistune.
 
When they finally arrived at Genkai's, Erik huffed all the way up the stairs just to see her to the door. When he finally reached the top he was out of breath and had to rest for a minute before he could speak. Kagome, however, looked as fresh as she did before they even attempted the climb.
 
Once he got his breath Erik straightened up and got ready to say goodnight to Kagome. He really wanted to give her a goodnight kiss. “Kagome, thank you for going out with me tonight. I really enjoyed myself and I hope that you had fun too.”
 
“I had fun too Erik.” Kagome said. I hope he doesn't kiss me. Please don't kiss me. Kagome thought to herself as she saw Erik face getting closer to her own. Then before she knew what happened Erik was bent down clutching his privates as if he were dying.
 
Yusuke had seen Erik leaning in close to kiss Kagome. To say that he was furious would be an understatement. He saw a perfect opening to get the guy away from Kagome, so Yusuke took it. Having no pity or remorse for what he was about to do. Not when his lips were starting to get close to Kagome's. Yusuke took quick and careful aim between Erik's thighs and Bull's eye, right on the family jewels. Poor guys didn't know what hit him.
 
*Nice aim.* Youko complimented.
 
“Good shot detective.” Kurama said approvingly.
 
Yusuke still wasn't satisfied with this, so he decided to further humiliate the poor bastard. He took another careful aim and shot across his butt, burning off a big portion of his pants. To everyone's surprise, Erik was wearing pink boxers with hearts all over. They could have handled that, but along with the hearts were miniature pictures of Kagome's face plastered all over his ass. Poor Kagome turned bright red. She stuttered some excuse and escaped into the house. Leaving a humiliated Erik to hobble down the steps to go home.
 
*STALKER! Where did he get all those pictures of our Kagome.* Youko demanded. Then stopped as something occurred to him. *Do you think we could get underwear like those?*
 
*I doubt Kagome would find something like that flattering.* Kurama pointed out.
 
*You are in so much trouble, wait till I get my hands on you. Youko, I could expect this type of behavior from you. But Kurama?* Kagome told them angrily.
 
*Uh, Oh. Looks like we're caught Red.* Youko said scared. He really didn't want to know what she is capable of when angered.
 
“Um Yusuke, I believe it is time for me to head on home. I'll see you tomorrow.” Kurama said.
 
“I think I'll join you.” Yusuke mumbled. He knew, he just knew that Kagome was going to lay into him if he came inside.
 
Hiei, hearing the conversation between them decided to get some payback. “Going somewhere? I believe Kagome is waiting for you both inside.”
 
“Yeah dimwit. You have to get up early to train tomorrow. Get your lazy ass inside.” Genkai said and immediately started ushering the two boys in, much to the amusement of everyone else. Miroku, Sango, and Higaro couldn't remember a time when they laughed so much. Miroku and Sango were eager to see how Kagome would deal with these two. And if they remembered her, she wouldn't let a little thing like a reunion stop her from unleashing her fury. This was going to be fun.
 
Once inside, Kurama and Yusuke came face to face with a furious Kagome. The first thing she said was directed towards Yusuke. “Sit! Quiet.” Causing Yusuke to kiss the floor and lose his voice. This type of behavior, she expected from Yusuke, but now Kurama.
 
“What do you think you were doing ruining my date. This type of behavior I expect from Yusuke, but from you. First off you accuse me of sending mixed signals, then you try that Kitsune charm on me, and finally this. What is wrong with you Kurama!” Kagome demanded.
 
Kurama was literally scared. *Kagome is sure scary when she is furious Youko.*
 
*Yeah tell me about it Red.*
 
“Well, I uhm. You see.” Kurama stuttered out.
 
“Are you not going to answer?” Kagome asked sweetly, confusing Kurama.
 
Miroku and Sango had yet to make their presence known. They found this tirade's of Kagome to be utterly fascinating.
 
“Wow Miroku, she hasn't changed a bit. I bet she's going to sit him, what do you think?” Sango asked.
 
“No she hasn't. Hm, I think he is in for a major sit.” Miroku agreed.
 
“What do you mean?” Higaro asked confused.
 
“It is often quiet before the storm.” Was all Miroku offered in way of explanations.
 
Kagome had already retrieved her new rosary, and started a chant. Before Kurama could react the beads of the rosary had separated and reformed around his neck. Kurama was confused about this at first, but as understanding dawned his eyes widened and got a scared look upon his face.
 
*This is not good Youko.* Kurama said.
 
*Speak for yourself. As long as I'm in here I'm safe.* Youko bragged.
 
“Dirt.” And down went Kurama. Kurama suddenly felt sorry for his comrades. Now that he had this thing on, he now knew how they must have felt.
 
*Ouch! Hey why can I feel the floor too. It's your body that suffering.* Youko demanded.
 
The others winced. They never thought to see the day Kurama got to kiss the floor. It seems all that charm Kurama has, suddenly failed him.
 
Yusuke had long since recovered and was about to stand up when Kagome sat him again. “I will deal with you in a moment.” She said.
 
“Kagome I really didn't mean what I said earlier today.” Kurama started to offer in way of explanation.
 
“Quiet.” Kurama lost his voice. “I did not say you could talk just yet. When you get your voice back, the first thing I want is a BIG apology. You are also to be nice to Erik when you see him in school on Monday. Don't think I didn't know it was you who kept making that poor boy trip on our way home.”
 
Hiei was starting to feel sorry for his friend Kurama. The one he really wouldn't mind seeing suffer was Youko. “Hello Kagome.” He said bringing Kagome's attention to himself.
 
Hearing Hiei's voice, Kagome stiffened. She had really missed her brother. “Hiei?” She turned towards his voice and saw him standing there. Before anyone could blink she was hugging him and crying, saying that next time he decided to disappear he had to tell her first.
 
After she finished hugging him, she started yelling. “Where the bloody hell have you been. Do you have any idea how worried I have been?”
 
“Sorry, Koenma called me in for a meeting.” Hiei said simply.
 
“Oh and did that meeting last over a day. I don't think so.” She stated angrily.
 
“No it didn't. I would have been back earlier if Miroku hadn't request me to accompany him to the Makai.” He said hoping to get her to calm down.
 
When Kagome heard Miroku's name she stiffened. Hope started filling her. “Miroku?”
 
“Yeah, Koenma called him an Honorable Monk.” Hiei offered.
 
Kagome sighed disappointed. “Then it couldn't be the Miroku I was thinking of. That Miroku was a lecherous Monk.” She said causing Miroku to wince.
 
“Kagome I am disappointed in you. I am but a humble servant of buddah.” He said with an innocent face.
 
Kagome slowly turned towards Miroku and saw not only Miroku standing there, but Sango as well. “Sango! Miroku!” She yelled at latched onto them both. There was much crying and hugging going on.
 
“Hentai!” Kagome yelled and slapped Miroku, causing Yusuke and Kurama to growl.
 
“I'm sorry I just couldn't resist. I has been over five hundred years after all.” Miroku offered in way of explanation.
 
“But how?” She asked.
 
“That my dear is a long story.” Miroku said.
 
“I'll tell you all about it later.” Sango supplied. “But are you sure your finished. I did see the shape Hiei was in after the fox was done with him.”
Kurama groaned, he really didn't want Kagome mad at him anymore. Kagome just said one word. “Youko.” To the complete astonishment of everyone around Kurama instantly turned into the silver Kitsune Youko Kurama.
 
“What? How? I'm so dead aren't I?” Youko said, dreading what was to come.
 
“Female with pink dress, pink flowers lining hair, pink highlight, pink nails, pink lipstick, pink eye shadow.” Kagome said simply. As Kagome kept talking, Youko would start appearing with what Kagome was saying.
 
“Hiei, do you have your camera on you?” Kagome asked.
 
“Of course.” He smirked.
 
“Then take as many pictures as you want.” Kagome offered. “Youko Model for the camera.”
 
“What! NO way!” Youko said hotly, but proceeded to model despite his many protestations.
 
As Hiei was busy with his victim, Kagome made her way to Yusuke who was now just sitting down. He had kept surprisingly quiet, even after the spell wore off. Kagome sighed and sat down next to him.
 
“Yusuke, why did you do that to Erik?” She asked.
 
Yusuke face turned a light shade of red. “I just couldn't let him kiss you Kagome. Do you like him?” He asked, not looking into her eyes.
 
“Hm. Do I like him. Well he is nice, and handsome to look at. But no not really. I like someone else. More like two or three someone else's.” Kagome replied with a blush. She really liked Yusuke and Kurama. She also had feelings for Youko as well.
 
Yusuke thought this over, he figured that the other one had to be Kurama and Youko. That counts for one or two, depending on how you look at it. “Would I perhaps be one of them.” Yusuke asked hopefully.
 
Kagome blushed but shyly nodded her head in affirmative. “Yeah, I like you too.”
 
Yusuke smirked. “Good, because I like you as well. I like you a lot Kagome.” It felt good to know that Kagome liked him. But then he started thinking about her date. “If you like me so much what were you doing on a date with that boy!” He demanded.
 
Kagome stiffened. “Well maybe I wouldn't have gone out with him, if someone would have asked me out first.” She defended.
 
“What do you mean by that!” Yusuke and Youko yelled out. Youko had been listening in.
 
“Well you guys never asked me out, so how was I to know you would get angry if I went out with another guy.” Kagome said stiffly.
 
“Well if you didn't send me so many mixed signals, maybe I'd know that you actually wanted to go out with me.” Yusuke defended himself with, while Youko looked on to see how Kagome would react.
 
“True, but you keep sending me mixed signals too. Always yelling at me, pulling pranks, and arguing with me. What am I suppose to think.” Kagome told him.
 
“Your always yelling at me, pull worse pranks than I do. And You are the one who usually start those arguments.” Yusuke defended.
 
“I do not start those arguments. You do.” Kagome yelled.
 
“Do Not!”
 
“Do too!”
 
“Not!”
 
“Too!”
 
“Not”
 
“Sit!” And down went Yusuke to meet Mr. Floor once again.
 
Sango in the meantime had noticed that the pendant she carried was pulsing the entire time. The two Miroku carried, were also pulsing. It's seems that Kagome had found her mates.
 
“Sango, Miroku, let's go and talk.” Kagome said as she latched onto these two as she started leading them out of the room and towards the dojo. As she left the room she simply said one word. “Kurama.” And Youko immediately turned back into Kurama. Hiei pouted at having his fun curtailed, but left Kurama alone. He had enough pictures to barter with the fox over. He was going to go and spy on his sister and her friends. For some reason, he felt the strong need to know more about Sango.
