Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Sugar Thieves ❯ Chappie 4 ( Chapter 4 )

The big group of seven people is now walking down the sidewalk. They had somehow got Hiei to agree upon not to kill Aneko nor Yuna after he was set free from Aneko’s hold with her shadow . . . somehow. Although, he still has that deathly glare towards Aneko, when ever they looked at each other . . . or when just he looks at her.

Yusuke, Kuwabara and Botan were in lead, Kurama behind them with Yuna right next to him, smiling at him, Hiei right behind them, while Aneko took the caboose end. Although, it was probably a bad idea for her with Hiei right in front of her and the others ahead of them both, looking in front of them. He could turn around any second and kill her if he wanted to. Even though he did agree on not killing her.

‘He could still do it,’ she thought to herself–she didn’t exactly trust any one that easily. And he might not even kill her; he only agree not to kill her, NOT to hurt her. With that thought popping in her head, she slowed her paste down a bit to make the gap between them bigger.

“So . . .” began Yuna, “Where are we going, exactly?”

Kurama smiled at her. "Koenma has a house where Hiei stays all the time and Yusuke, Kuwabara, and I visit there and sometimes stay."

Yuna frowned and pouted. "Why don't you, Yu-kun, and Ku-kun stay there?" She asked, using the nicknames she had made up for them sometime during their meeting until now.

Yusuke and Kuwabara turned to her asking the same question at the same time, "What did you call me?"

Yuna giggled. "Those are my nicknames for you guys. Yusuke is Yu-kun, Kuwabara is Ku-kun, Kurama is Su-kun, and Hiei is Hi-chan." Hiei glares at Yuna and she twitches. "Or, you know... Hiei can be Hiei, because I hate when those images flash through my mind."

Hiei goes back to walking while Yuna sighs. Aneko gets slightly annoyed. "We live in a mansion. Why do we have to leave our mansion to live somewhere else when we could just stay there? It's a waste, really."

"It's because Binky is afraid you'll run away unless your supervised," Yusuke answered.

Hiei mumbles, "I hate babysitting,” under his breath

Aneko glares, hearing that with her cat-like hears. "I hate vain fire demons who think they're the best, when they're not. But, I have to deal with that, too, don't I?" Hiei and Aneko start to compete in a glaring contest when they finally got to the house.

It was a normal, two-story house with blue walls and white blinds with two exceptions. The living room had drapes and one room had black blinds. As they were coming up to the porch Aneko spots the black blinds and turned to Kurama.

"Hiei's room?” She asked and Kurama nods.

They walk through the door and into the house. It wasn't anything much. As they walked in there was a small closet for coast and stuff on their right side, in the wall. It was a small hallway walk-in, no longer than six feet. At the left end was the beginning of the living room area. It was a decent size living room. It had a couch, a love seat, and a regular chair that match with a deep red color.

On the other side of the hallway walk-in was the beginning of the kitchen. It was a standard U-shaped kitchen size, with a stove, oven, and fridge that matched with the black marble counter tops.

Past the kitchen was the dinning room area. A nice size it was: the table in it was big enough to seat six people–two people on each side and one person on both ends–and had enough room to walk around it, without bumping into people's chair.

At the end of the dinning room had a long hallway that hooked to the back of the living room. In the hallway there were to doors–one leading into a bathroom, while the other was a closet–on the left side. On the right side there was a spiral staircase that led to the second floor of the house.

On the upper floor there were six, wooden doors. Four of the rooms were already occupied, which were for the boys. Two rooms were empty with just a full size bed and an oak dresser. Those were the rooms that Yuna and Aneko were going to take and stay in. Each room has a window and closet for their clothes.

Kurama offered to give them a tour of the house, which both Aneko and Yuna accepted. When they came upon the spiral staircase, they twitch at the staircase.

"SPIRAL!" They yell in union, causing Kurama to flinch a little.

They both jump to the stairs dropping their bags and started running up and down the stairs. When Kurama saw them running up and down the stairs he had an amused look on his face. Yusuke and Kuwabara came into the hallway, wondering what the neko demons where yelling about.

When Yusuke and Kuwabara walked up behind Kurama, they saw Yuna running down the stairs, but she stops on the last turns around and runs back up, passing Aneko who's on her way down.

The two boys look confuse. "Uh... why are they running on the stairs, Kurama?" Asks Yusuke.

Kurama shrugs his shoulders having no clue why either, as he replies, "I don't know."

Kuwabara decides to ask one of them and looks over to see Aneko running back up and Yuna coming back down. "Uh, why are you two--" before he could finish though, Yuna is already running up the stair as Aneko is coming back down.

This time, he asks Aneko, but faster, “Why are you two running up and down the stairs?”

Aneko stops on the last step replying quickly, "We love spiral staircases!" before turning around and heading back up.

Yuna must have heard the question after all, because when she came down she told them, "We've never had any before." Once she was done with that, she was heading back up.

Aneko comes back down, continuing Yuna's sentence, "And we always wanted some!" She turns and continues her running.

Hiei then comes into the hallway getting annoyed by Yuna's and Aneko's feet rapidly hitting each step with a thud as they run the stairs, nonstop.

“What the hell are you two bakas doing!" He yells at them, causing them to stop; Yuna at the top and Aneko at the bottom.

Aneko smiles at him sheepishly replying, "What does it look like?"

"It looks like to baka neko onnas making a racket for no apparent reason," he replies.

Aneko and Yuna look at each other and smile. Aneko looks back to Hiei and nods. "Yep! That's exactly what we're doing." Then they continue to run up and down the stairs, pissing Hiei off even more.

Before anyone can act, Hiei pulls out his katana, charges at Aneko--being the closest--and pins her down with the blade at her neck. Aneko, for the second time, is under Hiei’s sharp blade at her neck. Only this time the corner of the steps are poking at her back. Aneko glares up at him, while Hiei glares down at her, about to threaten her when laughter stops him. Yusuke and Kuwabara were laughing and pointing at the couple.

Aneko gets pissed that they thought her in pain was funny. "What the hell is your problem? What is so funny about this?" She yelled at the boys.

Yusuke spoke first, "Hiei is hahahaha straddling hahahahaha–"

Kuwabara cuts in, "–your waist hahahaha and is on top of . . .you! Hahahaha."

Aneko looked back at Hiei then looked down. The hentais were right. He was straddling her. Aneko blushed lightly now, noticing how close they were. She could feel his body on hers, and for some reason, it was driving her nuts: he was too close to her and she doesn’t like it one bit.

Hiei growls while glaring at them. "Hn, bakas." He then gets off of Aneko with a very slight blush upon his cheeks.

Kurama helps Aneko up to her feet. She mummers a thanks to him before turning to the two laughing hentais, still glaring at them. “You two are baka hentais!” She tells them, then stomps up the stair, just to annoy Hiei even more. She stops on the top on and turns around to stomp down the stairs.

The look on Hiei’s face proved that she had accomplished the job... very well done, we might add. His expressions showed her–and everyone–the annoyance she caused him by her action. He glares at her deadly as she glances at him with a glare of her own. Everyone else is just staring at them, sensing the tension between the two.

She smirks, “I forgot my bag.” She picks it up, throwing it over her shoulder. She turns on her heels and stomps up the stairs again. ‘Annoying him is fun,’ she thinks to herself.

At the top, she stops and to wait for Yuna and Kurama; Kurama so he can show her which room she can claim for the time being they are going to be there and Yuna so she can see which one she’s going to take.

‘I wonder how much I can annoy him before he decides to kill me,’ Aneko wonders to herself, leaning against the wall as she waits for the two.

Hiei scowls at Aneko's disappearing form rounded the curve on the spiral stairs. Oh, how he wishes to kill her now. He just wants to take his katana a slit her throat open with it so bad right now. Heck, he would even kill her by his own hands! All he had to do was wrap his hands around that frail neck (well, Hiei would think it would be frail) of hers and start to squeeze the air out of her. And he wouldn’t let go until she was good and dead.

But, he wouldn’t be able to do that. Not that he has the ability to do so . . . Its just Koenma would have his ass thrown straight into Spirit World Jail for killing a new teammate of his. Of course, Aneko being his teammate doesn’t mean that it would stop him, either. We all know that he would kill a teammate of his any time . . . and the other members of Team Urameshi knew that. They knew that very well.

He just didn’t want to go to jail . . . . If he didn’t mind going to jail, he wouldn’t be here with them right now . . . now would he? But, maybe Aneko will push a button on him, if she’s going to try to see how much she can annoy him, which will make him not care if he goes to jail. Who knows? It just might happen . . . . Or maybe it won’t. Time will have to tell if that happens or not, now won’t it?

Yusuke and Kuwabara were able to crease their laughter after a while. Kurama saw the look on Hiei’s face and walked over and places a hand on his shoulder, dragging Hiei out of his thought on how he could kill Aneko.

“Don’t kill her,” Kurama simply says to him. He grabs Yuna’s bag and head up the stairs with Yuna at his side. She holds her hand out, asking for her bag.

Kurama smiles at her while shaking his head. “I can carry it for you.”

Yuna blushes. "Uh...ok. Sure. Thank you."

Yuna and Kurama walk up the stairs, toward the plotting neko, and continue down the hall. The hall has six doors, three on each side.

"The first door on your left is Yusuke's," Kurama began to explain. "On your right is Kuwabara's. Next to Yusuke's is Hiei's and across from his is mine."

Yuna and Aneko nod and Aneko smirks. "I'll take the one by Hiei," she announces as she walks toward it. Yuna tilts her head in confusion. “Why would you choose to stay by him? . . . He could kill you in your sleep, you know."

Aneko turns around and grins mischievously. "This way I can mess with him more. If I'm closer I can get him faster," she explains with an evil glint in her eyes.

Yuna took a small step back. "O--kay. Just don't get killed."

Aneko smiled. "I won't." She turned back to the door and went to open it when Kurama stopped her.

"Aneko?"

She turns. "Yeah?"

Kurama sighs. "Don't mess with him too much. He will not mind going to jail if it means your gone."

Aneko blinks a couple times then smiles. "Okay . . . thanks." She then walks into her room and shut the door.

"She's not going to listen is she?" Kurama asks.

"No. She's not," Yuna replies. She turns to him and smiles. "Thanks for the help. We'll try to make ourselves at home. As much as we can anyway.”

“Will my friends be a problem?" Kurama chuckles.

"No. As long as they, you know, behave, we'll be fine." Yuna smiles back and nods. She turns to her room door and walks to it. "Thanks again."

Kurama smiles. "Anytime."

Yuna blushes slightly and opens her door and looks in. She notices the walls were white and turns back to Kurama. He was already at the stairs when she called him.

He turns around and looks at her. "Yes?"

She smiles. "The walls? Can I . . . change them? I don't really like white walls."

Kurama nods. "Sure. I expected as much. We all changed our walls."

"Okay then. Thanks . . . again."

He smiles "No problem." He turns back around and heads down the stairs as Yuna turns around and shuts her door.

The neko demons both settle in their rooms. Aneko finishes first with her room . . . since all she did was take a look around her new room and toss her bag on her new bed. She walks out of her room and across the hall to Yuna's room. She knocks on it a few times and waits for a reply.

Yuna's voice came through the door, "Come in." knowing it would most likely be Aneko. Sje opens the door and walks in as her friend greet her.

“Hey . . . You are done unpacking already?”

Aneko replies, “Not much unpacking to do with just one bag.”

“Let me guess . . . You didn’t unpack at all and you just tossed your bag down?” Yuna inquires her partner.

The black haired neko just shrugs her should as a ‘yeah, whatever’ to her. “I can’t believe we have to stay here with them. I much rather be at our place.”

“You’ll just have to get use to the size of the house”

“I’m not talking about the size of the house . . .” She leans against the closest wall to her. “I don’t exactly trust them.”

“You never trust anyone.”

“I can’t help it . . . I’ve learned not to trust people so easily.”

Yuna frowned at her friend. "You trust me . . . right?"

"Yes, of course I do!" Aneko replies with a smile. "I wouldn't be your partner, now would I? Heck, you're even my best friend!"

"Ok! Thanks, but . . . you should change. You have to. You need to. You should know that."

Aneko looks at her confuse. "Uh...?"

Yuna sighs and stands up. "Never mind. Come on. Let's go. Unless you need to talk about something else. Do you?"

"Uhm, no."

"Ok then. Let's go downstairs. I smell food, so that means someone’s cooking. I think I'll go help!" Yuna walks to the door and opens it. She turns around and looks at her friend. "Are you coming slowpoke?"

Aneko nods to her friend. "Yeah, coming."

She follows her friend out of her room and downstairs. They walk into the living room and look around. Yusuke and Kuwabara are playing Tekken 4 while Hiei's sitting on the window seat, looking outside.

Yuna looks around and ask, "Where's Kurama?"

Kuwabara turns around. "Oh . . . my lovely cat. He's cooking. But, why don't we go eat together? On a date?" He winks and Yusuke starts to laughs.

"He thinks you want to date him because you don't hit him when he asks. He thinks you like him!"

Yuna made a sick face and shook her head. "Kuwabara., if this stops you then I have no choice." Yuna calls out her staff and whacks him upside the head . . . hard! "Baka! I'd never go out with you! Ever!!" Yuna calms down and puts her staff away. "By the way Kuwabara, Yusuke's Jin is kicking your Gun Jack's ass."

Kuwabara looks startled then turns around just in time to see 'Player 1 wins'. "You cheated Yusuke!"

"I didn't! You weren't paying attention!" They start to pointlessly fight while Yuna lets Kuwabara's words sink in. 'Kurama cooks?!?!'

Yuna turns to Aneko. "Did he just say Kurama was cooking?"

Aneko looks over to Yuna. "Uh... " Aneko thinks for a bit, trying to remember what Kuwabara said, since she wasn't really pay attention to what they were talking about. "Yeah... I think he did."

“Wow." Yuna puts her hands over her mouth and blushes slightly. She then starts to giggle.

Aneko looks at her funny. "What's so 'wow' about that . . . people cook. . . . And why are you giggling about it?"

Yuna looks at her friend and smiles. "Guess I'm not used to guys cooking. And I'm giggling because . . . well I'm not sure." Yuna then shrugs and walks toward kitchen.

Aneko watches her friend's back leave the room into the kitchen. She shrugs and plops down on a couch, and starts to watch the game Yusuke and Kuwabara are playing.

"Hey, you got any other games . . . Like Halo or Mortal Kombat?" She questions them, wanting to play either of those games.

Yusuke, without turning to look at her, answers, "Yeah, we got both and more games. . . . Why, do you want to play them?"

"No, I only asked because I don't want to play those games," she answers him while rolling eyes at the dumb question.

Kuwabara, knowing she was being sarcastic about not wanting to play them, asks her, "Would you like to play one of them now?"

"Sure, if you guys don't mind" she replies

"No, we don't mind . . . Do we Urameshi?"

"Not as long you don't mind getting your ass kicked by us, Aneko?" He smirks, turning off the game he and Kuwabara were playing.

Aneko smirks back, "We'll see who kicks whose ass."

"Which one do you want to play, Halo or Mortal Kombat?" Kuwabara asks Aneko.

She shrugs, "Which ever is fine with me."

"Ok then... lets see how well you are in Mortal Kombat." Yusuke decides for them.

"But that's only a two player game." Kuwabara points out.

"You two fight and whoever is the winner, I will fight them next... okay?" Aneko says to them.

The two boys look at each other and nod, agreeing on it. Aneko leans back in the couch to watch them fight each other in the game, waiting to see whom she's going to fight next.


Yuna walks into the kitchen slowly. Kurama was putting rolls into the oven where chicken was already being cooked. Yuna watches as he went to a pot with boiling water and places a couple bags of rice in it. Kurama noticed her, after putting the lid on the pot and turns.

"Hello. What's going on?"

Yuna smiles at him and walks over. "Nothing really. What’cha making?"

Kurama smiles and answers, "Baked chicken, rice, and rolls. Is that ok?"

Yuna nods a lot. "Yes! It's great! Hey maybe next time I could help you. I like to cook. Not good but I like to."

Kurama shakes his head. "I believe that you cook well."

Yuna frowns. "How would you know?"

Kurama smiles again. "I just do."

Yuna points at him. "You," she says, "are too nice, you know?"

"I'll take that as a complement."

Yuna smiles with him. "You should."


"Okay, hand it over Kuwabara." Aneko says to him, holding out her hand for the controller. Kuwabara complies and hands her the controller. She takes it and sits next to Yusuke.

He turns to her with a smirk, "You ready to get your ass kicked by me?"

Aneko turns to him, "You're the one who's going to get the ass kicked by me."

"So you think."

"So I know," she corrects him.

"Just get on with the game you two," Kuwabara tells them, wanting to see Aneko fight Urameshi in the game.

Both of them nod once and face the TV. Both of them picks their chars; Aneko with Kira and Yusuke picking Kenshin.

The announcer of the game speaks up, "Round one." Yusuke and Aneko both get ready. "Fight!" And so begins the first round.

After kicks, punches, and throwing the opponents body across the ring the round ends with Yusuke being the winner.

"Thought I was going to get my butt kicked by you?"

"This was only round one . . . That was just a warm up for me."

"Whatever . . . I still kicked your butt."

The announcer speaks again. "Round two . . . . Fight!"

More punches, kicks, and body throwing were played out and the round ends with Aneko being the winner.

"Woohoo! Go Aneko!" Kuwabara cheers for her.

She smirks, "Ready for round three?"

"Yeah . . . the round which I'm going to win."

"We'll see, Yusuke. We'll see."

And so round three begins. This round, however, lasts longer then the first two, both wanting to win this round.

With one last kick thrown to the opponent, the round is over.

"Winner, Kira." The announcer says.

"Oh man Urameshi! She kicked your butt!" Kuwabara laughs at him.

"Yeah . . . she was just lucky . . . . That's all."

"Sure, Yusuke . . . Keep telling yourself that."
