Kiyaku: Broken Promise

Chapter 1: Best Fiends

"Kurama!"

Kurama turned around to find his best friend, Hiei, running toward him. Unlike Kurama who had his uniform in perfect order, Hiei had his jacket open to show a black shirt, a spike necklace and a chain necklace with a dragon pendent. A spike bracelet wrapped around one wrist and the other had a black band and a wrist band.

Hiei was followed by Yusuke and Kuwabara, his friends and gang members. Like Hiei Yusuke had his jacket open to reveal a white shirt and dog tag. Kuwabara had his partway open to have a white shirt underneath.

"Hey, Hiei," said Kurama greeting his childhood friend. "What are you doing?"

Hiei shrugged. "Thought about going to the arcade. What to come?"

"Sorry, I can't. I promised mother to help weed the garden."

"Come one, I'm sure your mother would understand if you just asked."

"I guess."

"Come on, Kurama," said Yusuke. "it won't kill you to take one day off."

"Yeah," said Kuwabara. "It'll be fun."

"Okay, sure!" said Kurama finally giving in. they walked in the arcade and Hiei and Yusuke took off toward Hot Racer. Kurama walked to the pay phone to call his mother while his two friends raced each other.

"Kaasan, it's Kurama."

"Hello, honey, where are you?"

"At the arcade. Hiei and the others wanted me to join them in a few games. I hope you don't mind."

"That's fine, dear, I want you to spend some time with your friends."

"You're not mad? I mean, from skipping the garden?"

"No, no I'm not mad. I'm happy for you. Go and have fun, dear."

"Arigato, kaasan. Jan ne."

"Ja!"

Kurama hung up the phone and joined his friends at the street racing game. Hiei was ahead of Yusuke by a lap and the latter was very angry about it.

"Aw, come on! Why can't it go any faster?!"

"Don't be a baby just because you're a sour loser, Urameshi," said Hiei turning the wheel.

"How did you get so good at this game?" asked Kuwabara.

"Practice." And Hiei crossed the finish line to win the game.

"Aw, man!" Yusuke banged his head against the wheel repeatedly. "I can never beat you at this game!"

"Practice more and you will," said Hiei with his arms crossed.

"Practice has nothing to do with it," said Kurama. "Strategic is what everyone needs."

"You think you can beat Hiei," asked Yusuke looking up at the redhead.

"Kurama never played this game before," said Hiei coming to his friend's defense.

"It's true but that doesn't mean I can't try. May I have your seat, Yusuke?"

"Sure." And Yusuke got up so Kurama could slide in. he quickly learned what did what and slid a coin in. Looking at the screen he watched as the start up appeared and the referee held up the checkered flag.

GO!

Hiei shot like a rocket down the lane but Kurama gently pressed the petal and gained speed. Yusuke and Kuwabara were cheering Hiei but Kurama focused on the game. It didn't take him long to pass Hiei and finish the lap.

"What the- How did you do that?" asked Hiei.

"Strategics." And Kurama passed Hiei again. Hiei was on his third lap when Kurama pasted the finish line.

"Whoa, Kurama beat Hiei's butt," yelled Kuwabara.

"You sure you played this game," asked Yusuke.

"Actually I think I have played this game," said Kurama. "What ten, eleven times, Hiei?"

"Twelve, including this one. And I still can't beat you at it!"

They looked at Yusuke and Kuwabara and laughed at the surprised and confused look on their faces.

"You mean you could play this game," said Kuwabara.

"Yes, I believe I can."

"But you said you couldn't," said Yusuke.

"Yusuke, it wouldn't be any fun if you knew I could. By the way Hiei, great acting. Your performance was exemplary."

"I don't know what that means but thanks. I think you did pretty well yourself."

"You sly fox," said Yusuke. "You tricked us."

"It's what I do."

Hiei laughed at his friends for their stupidness. They played some more games till Kurama headed home and Hiei had to pick Yukina up from shopping. They joke about school as they walked down the side walk toward the shop Yukina would be at with Keiko, Yusuke's girlfriend. They were laughing at how stupid the teachers were when they heard a scream.

"Let me go!"

"Leave us alone!"

They ran down the street to find Yukina and Keiko surrounded by thugs. Keio was slapping one while Yukina tried to wrestle out of the arms of another.

"Hey," yelled Hiei anger in his eyes. "Get away from my sister!"

"And my girlfriend!" yelled Yusuke and Kuwabara. Hiei scowled and rolled his eyes. Hiei didn't like the idea of Yukina dating the oaf but it was her desci9on so Hiei lived with it.

Hiei charged at the one holding his sister and punched him. Yukina and Keiko ran into an alley to wait out the fight. Soon all the gangsters were laying on the ground with bruises and cuts. Hiei walked toward his sister to see if she was all right.

"You okay now?" he asked as Yusuke went to Keiko.

"Yes, thank you. We were just heading to meet you when they ganged up on us."

"You'll be okay now."

"Aah!" SLAP!

Everyone looked at Keiko and Yusuke, the latter on the ground with a handprint on his face.

"Itai! Keiko, it's just me!" yelled Yusuke holding his cheek.

"Oh my gosh, Yusuke! I'm sorry, I thought you were one of the gangsters."

"I am a gangster but I don't do that!"

"I said sorry."

"I know and it's okay. Let's go home."

Everyone nodded and headed out.
