Amazing Revelations

Andrea walked down the stairs from her room nervously twisting her white halter top with the American flag on it, her tight blue jeans clinging to her body. Her waist length brown hair had been pulled into a loose ponytail and her make-up had been meticulously applied to bring out the blue in her eyes.

As she entered the living room her sapphire orbs scanned the room packed full of strangers for her host, Kurama, whose house she was staying in for the next year. The red head sat to one side of the room, emerald eyes staring at her in shock. She didn't blame him, it wasn't everyday someone wore the American flag in Japan.

"Guys, this is Andrea, my pen-pal from the United States," said Kurama to his friends, a smile on his face. Then pointing to each of the strangers in turn he continued with, "Andrea this is Yusuke, Hiei, and Kuwabara. I've told a little about them in the letters I sent you."

"What did you tell this ningen girl about me, Fox?" said Hiei as he glared at Kurama who decided to let Andrea answer this question for him.

"Chill out, Hiei," said Andrea while looking directly into Hiei's blood-red eyes. "All he told me was that you're a good and loyal friend who likes ice cream and that though some people mistake you for a child because of you height that you are most certainly not one. Also that you keep calling Kuwabara an idiot."

"Hn," was Hiei's only reply.

"So how long have you known Kurama?" asked Yusuke, who had brown eyes and slicked back black hair that was a sharp contrast to Hiei's spikes.

"About fourteen years. We became pen pals when we were both in the second grade." said Andrea as she went and sat next to Hiei who surprisingly didn't edge away from the ningen.

Then the orange haired man with small brown eyes spoke up. His name was Kuwabara and his facial expression appeared to make him look not quite as intelligent as the rest.. "That means you've known Kurama longer than the shrimp, doesn't it?"

Andrea looked at him in shock wondering how any one person could have so much stupidity. Then she turned to Hiei and said, "I think idiot is too mild a term for what he is. Why don't you try imbecile or ignoramus?"

To everyone's surprise, Hiei smirked and replied, "Tried both. He couldn't figure either of them out."

"That's odd," said Yusuke, running a hand through his hair. "I've never seen Hiei warm up to someone so fast." Even Kurama seemed to agree with the famous spirit detective as he bobbed his head up and down.

Kuwabara chose that moment to voice on of his more dim-witted thoughts. "Isn't it time we got going? I'm hungry." With that Yusuke got up and led the way out of Kurama's house and into the front yard. Nobody heard the few words that passed between Hiei and Kurama telepathically.

`There's something not quite right about that ningen girl,' said Hiei, throwing a glance at Andrea's back.

`I know. That's why I invited her here. But I don't think she knows she's not normal…' replied Kurama.

`Maybe we should take her to the toddler. It's almost as if this girl has a jagan and doesn't know it. Keep an eye on her, Fox' said Hiei ending the private conversation.

Kurama tried to ask Hiei why he thought Andrea had a Jagan but got no answer from Hiei.

Another thing nobody noticed was the smirk that Andrea was trying so desperately to keep off her face. It had been shocking at first to realize that her pen pal and his friends were the main characters on her favorite anime television show. But even more shocking, was that her suspicions about Hiei had proven true. He was damned good looking in real-life. She wondered what they would do when she told them that or when she revealed herself to be a duelist who could actually summon the monsters. Not even Kurama knew either of those secrets. But that would come later she thought as she felt inside the pocket of her jeans for her duel-monsters deck.

As they walked the short distance to the restaurant, which just happened to be owned by the parents of Yusuke's girlfriend, Andrea did her best to keep her eyes off Hiei's rear-end. Like all things that one should not do, it was difficult. That is until she caught wind of a familiar sensation that sent a shiver straight down her spine. She pulled out her deck as Hiei suddenly came to a stop and the others halted to see what the fire demon had to say. "Something is following us," he said simply.

They turned and saw a man who seemed to radiate a strange power in a dark purple magician's outfit carrying a green scepter hovering several inches off the ground.

Kurama stepped between Andrea and the unknown figure, but she pushed him to one side. He stared at her with an alarmed expression on his face and Hiei drew his katana, eyes narrowing. There was no fear on Andrea's face and she stepped towards the strange figure. She smiled and said, "Hello, Dark Magician. Who sent you? Was it Yugi or was it Yami?"

Needless to say, Yusuke, Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara looked at her in shock. Dark Magician's response did not serve to put them at ease. It only made them curious. "I was sent by the Pharaoh. His hikari is worried about you. You didn't send Dark Magician Girl as you said you would."

"I didn't send her because if I had summoned her she might have surprised the heck out of these nice people, like you just did. Please tell Yugi and Yami that my flight went well and that I will be calling them and Seto with more information later." Dark Magician nodded, smiled, and disappeared into a portal that appeared behind him.

Andrea was instantly inundated with questions from the four boys.

"Who the hell was that?" asked Yusuke, his fists still raised.

"How did he disappear like that?" asked Kuwabara, sounding more confused then usual.

Who is this Pharaoh he spoke of? And who are Yugi and Yami? You've never mentioned them in your letters?"

"What was that creature?" asked Hiei.

Andrea sighed heavily and said, "That, Yusuke was the Dark Magician. He disappeared using Shadow Magic. Yami is an Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh whose soul was until recently sealed within an object known as the Millennium Puzzle. This was just one of many things I never wrote to you about, Kurama. The Dark Magician is a duel monster, brought from the Shadow Realm temporarily in order to do his master's bidding. "

"And you know this because?" asked Kurama.

"Because I am a duelist and I have a deck of monsters that I can summon or use in Shadow Games. Although only one of them is more powerful than the one you just saw." said Andrea. Then they resumed their walk to the restaurant and along the way Andrea explained the game of duel monsters and the Millennium Items to four confused boys.

She finished her thankfully brief explanation as they entered the restaurant. Everybody except Kuwabara had at least a general idea of not only the basics of the game but also a better understanding of the Shadow Realm.

As they sat down at a table Kurama spoke. He said, "What do you mean by `one of many things'?"

Andrea smirked but did not speak as a waitress who seemed to know Yusuke walked over and took their orders. When the waitress, whose name was Keiko, left Andrea said, "Things like the fact that you and your friends look like, and act like, and have the same names as the main characters on my favorite anime." This revelation got everyone's attention even Hiei's, who stopped looking out the window and turned to the girl.

"Then name your favorite character and tell us everything you know about that character." said Kurama who probably thought it was a joke.

"My favorite character is a half ice apparition, half fire demon named Hiei who has a twin sister named Yukina. The show gives very little reliable information about his past other than the facts that he was thrown off the Island of the Koorime before he was an hour old and that some Demon Lord named Mukuro has the Tear Gem that Hiei's mother, Hina gave him. Other facts that are not from his past include him having a Jagan eye implanted in order to find his sister, being damned fast, really strong, good with a sword, says `hn' a lot, and is way better looking than he is fast." Hiei's mouth dropped open in shock, his crimson eyes widening.

Hiei's attention soon shifted to Kurama who had been sitting across from him and slantways from Andrea and said, "If this is your idea of a joke, Fox, I'll blast you with my Dragon."

Andrea laughed and everybody, but Hiei who had started to glare angrily at Kurama who looked quite apprehensive about the enraged demon sitting at the table, and Kuwabara, who was still getting over the fact that Hiei was the brother of his beloved Yukina, began to wonder what it would take to keep Hiei from killing a certain Fox.

Kurama came up with an idea, but Andrea had already thought of it and said it even as it entered Kurama's mind. "I know how to prove what I've said as true." said Andrea as the bowls of noodles arrived. "Use that jagan of yours and read my mind or I could show you my Yu Yu Hakusho DVD Collection if that is what you'd prefer. Heck, if you want to we could even do both."

"Hn. Both. Later." was Hiei's abrupt reply.

For the next few moments everyone ate in near silence. Then Keiko came back and was introduced to Andrea. No one told the friendly brown haired girl about the anime series that all seemed to be a part of.

About an hour later Andrea and the four boys were sitting in front of the television in the room Andrea would be staying in at Kurama's house. Hiei sat in the open window and Yusuke, Kurama, and Andrea sat on her bed. Kuwabara sat in a chair because Andrea didn't want him to touch her bed. She placed in her favorite Yu Hakusho DVD and started playing her favorite episode `Seiryu The Blue Dragon' followed by her second favorite episode `Dragon of the Darkness Flame', and her third favorite episode `Hiei Battles On' in that order.

"Wow. I guess Hiei really is Andrea's favorite character. She might even have a crush on the Shrimp," said a laughing Yusuke who had fallen off the bed and was rolling around on the floor because of his laughter's intensity.

Andrea blushed and looked over at Hiei as if to say `Let's get him.' Apparently the intended message was communicated, because both Hiei and Andrea got up and kicked the laughing Spirit Detective several times and not gently.

Yusuke stopped laughing and said, "What was that for?" He got no answer. At that moment Botan appeared in the room and not noticing that Andrea was in the room, preceded to tell the Reikai Tentai that a strange power signal had been detected in their immediate vicinity and that they should catch that person and take them to Reikai.

"Botan, I wish all our cases were so easy," said Yusuke as he tried to keep from laughing with little success.

The blue haired ferry girl was shocked. "This is serious, Yusuke. This could be the fulfillment of a major prophecy. All three worlds could be in danger."

"I believe that Yusuke was trying to tell you that we may already know the person in question. In fact I may even be sitting next to her." Said Kurama.

It was then that Botan realized Andrea was in the room.

"Hello, Botan. My name is Andrea. I'm Kurama's pen pal from the United Sates."

Trying to look like she wasn't shocked Botan said, "Then we should take her to Reikai. We can tell her about it on the way."

Botan was in for the shock of her life. Or as the case may be, the shock of her death.
