Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Season of the Crystal Feather ❯ No Sleep for Fox Boy ( Chapter 9 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Dream: A lot of the stuff in this chapter is based off of actual things that happened to me, Mike, and Ari. This might be a good time to remind all of you that Flash is based off of Ari, Hinote is based off Mike, and Autumn is based off me. This is how we really act. Sadly, the three of us are going into 10th grade next year. Do we act like it? Absolutely not.

Freckles: -.-;;; Well, if you want a disclaimer you have to look at last chapter.

Dream: Well, since I don't feel like writing a long author's note, I'm gonna cute this short and start writing. Hope you enjoy it.

No Sleep for Fox Boy:

"I suppose we should get some sleep, ne?" Kurama interrupted.

Autumn shook her head, "But it's so early! We still have plenty of time that we could use to torment people! I mean...Talk about things!"

"I knew she was out to make us suffer!!" Yusuke yelled, pointing at Autumn.

Autumn began to laugh maniacally. Kurama shook his head and forced himself not to smile, "We should really get some sleep before tomorrow if we're..."

"Hey, wait a minute!" Hinote interrupted, "During my match with Hiei I was going to say 'Yuki's lover' not 'Yukina's brother!"

All of us turned to stare at Hinote and make him feel like an idiot for his random outburst. Autumn pointed, "You interrupted Kurama! You bastard monkey! And that was SO rand...YOU REVEALED HIEI'S SECRET!!! YOU TOLD EVERYONE THAT HIEI IS YUKINA'S BROTHER!!"

"No...You did...I never actually said that Hiei was Yukina's brother. I just said 'Yukina's brother'" Hinote pointed out.

Hiei was fuming. Kuwabara was shocked, "HIEI IS YUKINA"S BROTHER?!?"

"Who's Yukina and why is it such a secret that Hiei is her brother?" Thorn asked, confused.

Hiei was unsheathing his katana. He growled at Autumn and Hinote, "I will kill both of you..."

"Now, now, Hiei, it isn't nice to kill your associates..." Autumn said while backing up towards the door.

Hinote was also backing up towards the door. Hiei used his lightning speed to move between them and the door. He was behind them as he spoke, "Neither of you are going anywhere but to Reikai once I free your souls from your bodies!"

Autumn and Hinote laughed nervously. They froze in place and refused to turn around. Hiei was moving towards them menacingly while holding his now unsheathed katana out to the side. The rest of us were watching in either surprise, amusement (::cough:: Flash ::cough::), or horror. Kurama stood up.

"Hiei, surely you can't be seriously planning to kill them! No harm will come from this, just calm down!" Kurama tried to reason with the enraged fire demon.

"Stay out of this Kurama..." Hiei growled.

I hopped over and stood in front of Autumn protectively. Autumn turned and stared down at me along with everyone else. After a moment of complete silence, everyone started laughing at me. Even Hiei laughed for a second before his frown returned. I made a loud unhappy noise. Once the laughter stopped Kuwabara looked at Hiei.

"Hey shorty, why do you have your katana drawn?" Kuwabara asked.

Thorn opened her mouth to tell him but Autumn and Hinote covered her mouth with their hands and yelled, "WE WERE PLAYING A GAME!!!"

"Yeah, we were playing a game where we tell lies and people pretend to get angry! Anything you heard recently was a lie!" Autumn explained.

For a moment Kuwabara looked like he didn't buy that story, then he nodded, "Oh, ok! Sounds like lots of fun!"

Everyone stared at him blankly. Hiei sheathed his katana again. Hinote sighed in relief, "We are so lucky that he's such an idiot..."

"Yeah..." Autumn nodded.

Hinote pointed at Autumn accusingly, "YOU! You almost got me killed!"

"Well, look at the bright side! We're still alive and at least there are no blood stains on Thorn's pretty white carpet!" Autumn chirped happily.

Flash hit Autumn over the head with the nearest book. Autumn fell to the floor clutching her head in pain, "OW!!! What the hell was that for?! I didn't even do anything!!"

"You were being too optimistic again." Flash said without emotion.

"But optimism is good for you!!" Autumn whined.

Flash glared, "Optimism makes me sick."

"Aw..." Autumn pouted and looked down at the carpet sadly.

Hinote blinked and looked at Flash while pointing at Autumn, "You made Autumn sad, shame on you, Flash."

"Oh she'll get over it. Kurama, deal with that." Flash pointed at Autumn.

Kurama blinked, "Why me?"

"Because you luffels her." Hinote shrugged.

"...Luffels?" Kurama blinked rapidly.

"Love, you moron." Flash responded.

Kurama's cheeks reddened slightly. Thorn seemed to be writing notes down in a little pocket notebook that appeared out of nowhere.

"Hey where'd Autumn go?" Hinote asked, looking around.

Yusuke pointed, "She's over there in the corner...reading a book..."

"Let me guess, it's a comic book, right?" Flash asked as she walked over to see what Autumn was reading.

"No, it's a book about the legends and things of Makai." Autumn mumbled absently as she read.

Hinote suddenly decided to speak, "Hey, I just noticed something..."

"Your fly is open?" Autumn arched an eyebrow while closing the book and putting it aside.

Hinote looked down, "WHAT?! IT IS?!"

"You idiot, I was kidding." Autumn rolled her eyes.

Hinote sighed, "Anyways, I just noticed that we're a lot like the Yu Yu Hakusho guys."

"How so?" asked Flash.

"Well there are four of us: Me, You, Autumn, and Margaret and there are the four guys: Yusuke, Hiei, Kurama, and Kuwabara." Hinote started as he sat down on the couch.

Autumn arched an eyebrow, "And...?"

"Well, in our group, Flash is Hiei because she's violent and sets stuff on fire. I'm Yusuke, Margaret's Kuwabara because she's an idiot, and Autumn, you're Kurama because you're smart and quiet unless you've had sugar...HEY! Let's give Kurama tons of sugar and see if he gets spastic and annoying!" Hinote announced.

"Yeah!" Yusuke agreed.

Kurama sweat dropped. Autumn decided to save Kurama, "Hinote, how are you Yusuke? I mean, sure you do cut classes, act perverted sometimes, and never use your brain but...you're not a punk and you don't fight people...in fact, you're a sissy."

"I AM NOT!!!" Hinote yelled.

"Hinote, there's a rather large spider on your head." Autumn stated.

Hinote squealed in fright and jumped off of the couch. He started jumping around while rubbing his head to get the nonexistent spider out of his hair. "SPIDER!!!!"

Yusuke, Kuwabara, Flash, Autumn and Thorn burst out laughing at Hinote. Kurama covered his mouth to hide his smile and Hiei smirked. Hinote finally realized that there was no spider and sat back down on the couch while glaring at Autumn.

"I don't think you guys are really all that similar..." Thorn pointed out, "Flash seems to laugh more than Hiei does and Autumn is a more happy-go-lucky, carefree and dancing in the rain type of person than Kurama."

"Dancing in the rain is so much fun!" Autumn announced and grinned.

Hinote nodded, "It so is."

"I see your point, Thorn. Kurama's too proper to have any fun." Flash nodded.

Autumn clapped her hands together, "Well, then, the next time we find ourselves in a rainstorm I'll have to drag Kurama out into the rain and make him dance with me!"

"If he can stand being around you that long." Hinote said.

Autumn glared at him, "Are you saying I'm not fun to be around?"

"Eh...of course not! You're extremely fun to be around! You're one of the most fun people to be around out of all the people there are to be around!" Hinote laughed nervously and rubbed the back of his head, "It's just that...the whole fan girl thing might annoy him. You saw how Hiei snapped at Margaret."

"Ok, first of all, Kurama is not like Hiei. If a fan girl was annoying Kurama he'd make up an excuse about having to go somewhere and leave politely, being a complete gentleman like always. Then once he was out of sight he'd probably run to make sure she wouldn't be able to find him and then he would get a restraining order." Autumn pointed out.

"Oh come on, I bet Kurama loves getting attention from so many fan girls. I wish I had fan girls like that!" Yusuke whined.

Kurama shook his head, "No, trust me, you don't."

"See? Fan girls do annoy him. So be careful." Hinote said to Autumn.

Kurama looked at Autumn, "Well, she's just a mild fan girl. She doesn't follow me home every day or offer me presents and food as soon as I leave my house in the morning."

"If she knew where your house was she would." Hinote nodded.

"No I wouldn't..." Autumn shot Hinote a death glare.

Hinote held up his hand to block Autumn's glare from his view. "Stop the creepy glaring!"

"Then stop saying things to make me glare at you." Autumn replied.

Flash shook her head, "Here they go again arguing about stupid things. Just like that time they were arguing about what color Kurama's shirt is in the movie..."

"It was blue!" Autumn yelled.

"PURPLE!" Hinote yelled back.

"BLUE!"

"PURPLE"

"KURAMA'S SHIRT IS BLUE!"

"HIS SHIRT IS PURPLE!"

"BLUE!"

"PURPLE!"

"KURAMA! WHAT COLOR IS YOUR SHIRT?! BLUE OR PURPLE?" Autumn yelled at the redhead.

Kurama blinked rapidly then looked down at his shirt, "Um...my shirt is white..."

"Not that shirt, the one from the battle against Yakumo of the Netherworld. It's got a red phoenix on it and a golden yellow trim. You wore a white shirt under it, white pants, and g golden yellow belt." Autumn was explaining.

"Does she know every detail of it?" Yusuke asked.

"Pretty much." Flash nodded.

Kurama thought for a moment before answering, "It's purple."

"I told you!" Hinote pointed at Autumn. "I was right and you were wrong! HA-HA!"

Autumn stuck her tongue out at Hinote. Hinote opened his mouth to say something then shook his head, "No...Hiei's here...."

"Huh?" Flash blinked at Hinote.

"It's nothing." Hinote shook his head.

Flash and Autumn exchanged glances. They moved closer to Hinote, "Tell us!"

"No, no, it's nothing." Hinote insisted.

Flash and Autumn nodded at each other before starting to attack Hinote. They were tickling his sides and feet. He fell onto the floor struggling and laughing as the girls continued their attack.

"GET AWAY!! It's nothing!" Hinote laughed out.

"Tell us!" Autumn yelled at Hinote.

Flash continued trying to get Hinote to tell them while Autumn walked up to Hinote's boots and picked one up. "Hinote, I have Mr. Shoe and I'm holding him hostage until you tell us."

"Is it the right shoe?" Flash asked.

Autumn looked at it, "Yeah."

"I would've laughed if it wasn't." Flash said.

Autumn walked out of the room and yelled, "Hinote, Mr. Shoe's going in the garbage if you don't tell us!"

"WHAT?!" Hinote got up and ran to where Autumn was. "Where's my shoe?"

"In the garbage." Autumn replied.

"YOU THREW MY SHOE IN THE GARBAGE?!" Hinote yelled.

Yusuke blinked, "You guys have serious issues."

"I hate you right now." Hinote said as he walked back into the room holding his boot.

Autumn followed behind, "Tell us."

"Now you're never going to know." Hinote glared.

Autumn reached into her bag and took out a spray bottle. She left the room and came back with it filled with water. She started spraying the water at Hinote. Hinote started trying to block the water. Flash was off to the side laughing. Hinote got up and started trying to get the spray bottle from Autumn. He finally got it out of her hands and started spraying her with it. Autumn stood there letting him.

"You realize that doesn't bother me?" Autumn asked.

Hinote kept spraying the water at her. Autumn turned around, "Now get this side, it has to be even."

"Oi, you two are embarrassing me again." Flash pointed out.

Autumn got the spray bottle back and started spraying Hinote again. Hinote ran outside into Thorn's backyard. There were some lit lamps hanging from tree branches out there. Autumn started chasing Hinote around. She finally just opened the bottle and let the water fly out at Hinote. Hinote took the bottle and did the same to Autumn. The rest of us moved to stand in the backyard watching them.

Hinote grabbed Autumn's arm and started skipping in a circle. He then grabbed Flash's arm. Flash hissed and tried getting away. After a while she did and moved to stand away from them. Autumn pulled Hinote aside and whispered something to him. He nodded and the started moving towards Flash. They tried tickling her, poking her, and everything else.

"What are you two trying to do?" Kuwabara asked.

Autumn smiled, "Hey! Try picking her up!"

"No!" Flash yelled. She moved away from Hinote.

"You had to say it out loud, didn't you?" Hinote rolled his eyes. He started chasing Flash to pick her up.

Autumn followed, "Squeal damn it!"

"Squeal!" Flash yelled.

"That was the most pathetic squeal I've ever heard." Autumn pointed out.

Thorn looked around, "Alright everyone, back inside. It's dangerous in the forests around here during the night."

"Aw...fine..." Autumn pouted as she and the rest of us went back inside.

"I'll get something for all of us to drink." Thorn announced before going to the kitchen.

"So much for going to sleep..." Kurama sighed.

"Sleep is overrated." Hinote said.

I was sitting in Autumn's lap letting her pet me. She looked up at Kurama, "What do you guys know about the crystal?"

"All we know about it is that it has the power to control the seasons and that it could cause major damage to Ningenkai if we don't get it back." Kurama replied.

Flash leaned back on the couch where she was sitting with Terminator stretched out next to her. "How could a crystal be that powerful? Where did it come from and what created it?"

"I already said all that we know about it." Kurama pointed out.

Autumn was looking down at me with a thoughtful expression on her face. She seemed to be lost deep in her thoughts. Thorn came back into the room with water for everyone. She waved a hand in front of Autumn's face, "You alright?"

"Huh? I'm fine! Just a little tired I guess." Autumn smiled after having been snapped out of her thoughts.

"We should all get some rest before tomorrow. I have a feeling that we have a long day ahead of us." Kurama stated.

Thorn nodded, "Yes, Kurama's right, we should get some sleep. There are four guest bedrooms. Kurama, Hiei, Tundra, and Hinote can have the biggest one, which is the one on the right. Autumn and Freckles can have the one across the hall from that one and Flash and Terminator can have the one to the right of the boy's room. Last time I checked Margaret was sleeping in the one across from Flash's." She went over to a closet.

"What about me and Kuwabara?" Yusuke asked.

Thorn tossed a blanket at him. "You can sleep on the couch and Kuwabara can sleep on the floor." She tossed a blanket and pillow to Kuwabara.

"That's not fair! How come the girls get their own rooms! Can't they share one?" Kuwabara said annoyed.

Autumn stuck her tongue out at him. Flash shrugged, "That's life, knaves. Deal with it or I'll make you suffer."

Yusuke smirked, "We could always have Autumn and Kurama share a room, I'm sure they'd like that…"

Autumn kicked Yusuke in the knee, "Not funny!"

"Yusuke! I asked you to stop saying things like that!" Kurama yelled.

"You expect me to listen?" Yusuke asked.

Autumn looked over at Thorn, "Are you sure there's enough room in this room for Yusuke? He might be more comfortable outside."

"But, if he was outside he'd probably get eaten by something..." Thorn said.

"That's kinda the point." Flash pointed out.

"That's ok, I'm perfectly happy here on the couch." Yusuke said as he took his blanket over to the couch.

Hinote looked thoughtful, "But why can't the girls share a room?"

"Just shut up and go to your room." Flash commanded.

"But..." Hinote began.

Flash pointed at the hallway, "GO TO YOUR ROOM!"

"Yes Mommy!" Hinote snickered as he ran out of the room in fear with Flash chasing him.

"WHEN I CATCH YOU, YOU ARE SO DEAD!!!!!" Flash screamed.

Autumn grinned, "I love my friends."

"I don't." Yusuke said grumpily.

Autumn shrugged, "Well, no one cares about you."

"Ha-ha, Very funny." Yusuke glared.

Thorn started ushering everyone to their rooms, "The sooner we go to sleep the sooner we wake up and the sooner I get to make breakfast!"

Everyone went to their assigned rooms and settled down to go to sleep, except for Hinote and Flash. Hinote was finally chased into a corner by Flash. Flash reached into her trench coat.

"I will smite you with my metal...BOOKMARK?!" Flash stared in disbelief at the bookmark in her hand.

Hinote started laughing, "Oh, yeah, real spooky."

"...AUTUMN!" Flash yelled.

"I DIDN'T DO IT, I SWEAR!" Autumn yelled back from her room.

I shook my head and hopped off to Autumn's room in order to get some sleep. Flash went to her room grumbling about foxes and revenge. Hinote sighed in relief and went to the room he was sharing with Hiei and Kurama.

---Later that night (Now in 3rd person POV):

Kurama and Hiei were in the dining room with Thorn. Each of them had a cup of tea that Thorn had made. Hiei was sitting on Kurama's right and Thorn was sitting across from Kurama. They were speaking quietly so as to not wake up Yusuke or Kuwabara. Kuwabara was fast asleep and snoring on the floor. Yusuke was sleeping on the couch with a pillow over his head to block out the snores. Everyone else was fast asleep in his or her room.

"So what exactly was that pendant that you let Autumn have?" Kurama asked.

Thorn took a sip of tea, "It's a little trinket I picked up somewhere called the Namida no Tenshi. It supposedly gives off a red glow if the wearer is in danger and is able to create a temporary shield around the wearer as protection. I've never had a use for it because of the fact that it glows and would give away my position during a heist."

"Ah, makes sense." Kurama nodded.

Thorn thought for a moment, "You know, I think I might know something about that crystal you're looking for."

"Like what?" Hiei asked.

Thorn got up and went into the other room. She picked up a book and came back with it. "Well, I do a lot of research about things that have to do with the Mist Mountains since Kuro Tenshi is my Hero."

"Kuro Tenshi?" Hiei arched an eyebrow.

"The Black Angel, Phantom Harmony. I call her Kuro Tenshi because it sounds prettier." Thorn explained.

Kurama chuckled, "You're a thief, yet your hero is someone that caught thieves?"

"Yeah, yeah, I know it sounds stupid, but you have no right to talk. After all, you fell in love with her." Thorn responded.

Kurama sighed and looked down into his tea cup. It was true; Youko had fallen in love with Harmony over the time they'd known each other. She had disappeared, though, before he had been able to tell her exactly how he felt or ask her to be his mate. He had been searching for her for a while before other things demanded his attention. Then he had been shot during a burglary and forced to retreat to Ningenkai. He still missed her.

Hiei saw the distant and sad expression on his friend's face and decided it would be best not to mention anything about Thorn's statement. He decided instead to change the subject, "What does that book say about the crystal?"

"It says that the crystal was kept in a shrine in the center of the Mist Mountains for centuries. Its true origins are unknown. Apparently, the Mist Mountain Kitsune protected the crystal, but nobody knows exactly why. That's really all it says. There's so much that nobody knows about the Mist Mountains. If I hadn't seen them myself, I would've thought the Mist Mountains were from a fictional story or something." Thorn put the book down on the table next to her tea cup.

"I wonder what happened that caused the crystal to be removed from the Mist Mountains..." Kurama thought aloud.

---Autumn's Dream Sequence! Why? Because I love dreams! Now shut up and read the dream! READ IT!

There was a girl that appeared to be about 18 sitting on a large stone next to a lake. She had black hair reaching down to just below her shoulders. On her head were two black fox ears and behind her was a fluffy black fox tail that had a light blue ribbon tied around it. Her right ear had a chip missing from it. She was wearing a long red Chinese style dress with gold dragon designs on it. It had no sleeves and a slit going up to just above her knee on each side. Next to her on the rock were sitting two black Chinese slippers. Her feet were hanging into the water of the lake. The girl had her stormy blue-grey eyes turned to look at the bright blue, cloudless sky.

The water of the lake was still and calm. The only disturbances were flower petals that fell into the water. In the center of the lake there was a small island with a small oriental style shrine. It was made of light brown wood. In front of the shrine was a silver statue of a phoenix rising out of water. The shrine was giving off a pale blue glow because of the crystal that was housed inside of it. Around the lake was a small patch of green grass that had some flower petals on it. Around the grass was a forest of trees blooming with flowers of different colors. There were white, pink, light blue, yellow, and red orange flowers blooming on the trees. The flower petals were carried in the wind, making the area look rather beautiful.

The fox girl's left ear perked up suddenly and the girl hopped up so that she was standing on the rock where she'd been sitting. She quickly slipped on her shoes as she surveyed the area for the source of the noise that she had heard. Her eyes narrowed when she saw a robed figure standing in front of her. The figure's robe was a dark brown in color and the person had the hood up. All that could be seen of the person's face was the arrogant smile. The figure's mouth moved as if she was chanting something quietly.

The fox girl grew tense as a ball of dark energy began forming in the robed person's hand. The person shot the energy at the fox, but she was able to easily dodge it. She landed about a foot to the side of the rock she had been standing on and turned to see where the energy had gone. The fox girl's eyes widened in fear as she saw the energy destroy the small shrine and send a shining feather shaped crystal flying into the air. The girl changed into her fox form. She was now a pure black fox with seven tails. She jumped across some small stepping stones and caught the light blue crystal before it hit the ground. She then jumped across some other stones and ran through the forest away from the now furious robed figure.

---End dream

Autumn sat up in her bed and rubbed her eyes. She looked around and saw that the door was cracked open slightly and her rabbit was missing. She reached into her bag and took out a watch to see what time it was. It was almost midnight. She stretched and yawned before getting up and leaving the room to find the rabbit.

In the dining room, Flash had joined Kurama, Hiei, and Thorn. She was sitting across from Hiei. They were talking about what was going to happen in the morning. Flash had been sitting silently for a while before Hiei spoke up.

"You aren't a human, are you?" Hiei asked.

Flash nearly fell out of her chair in surprise, "WHAT?!"

"Humans don't have gold colored eyes. Plus, I can sense a demonic aura from you." Hiei explained.

Flash blinked stupidly at him, "Wow, I didn't expect anybody to figure it out this soon...Now, don't go telling anybody, ok? I want this to be just between the four of us. Well...six because Hinote and Autumn already know but yeah."

"They know?" Thorn asked.

Flash nodded, "Yeah, Autumn forced it out of me. She can be very persistent...and annoying..."

"So what kind of demon are you?" Thorn asked.

"She's a lion hanyou!" Autumn chirped as she walked into the dining room.

Flash stared blankly at her, "You're awake?! Usually you don't wake up unless someone mentions something about Kurama not wearing clothes."

"ACK! You aren't supposed to say that while he's here!" Autumn hissed.

Flash looked over at Kurama who was blinking rapidly. She looked back at Autumn, "Oops..."

"So, why are you awake?" Thorn asked Autumn.

Autumn sat down in the chair at the head of the table, which was between Kurama and Thorn, "I just woke up from a strange dream. Has anyone seen my rabbit?"

"Don't tell me you lost your rabbit. First you lose your shoes, then your house keys, and now you lost your rabbit." Flash rolled her eyes.

Autumn shook her head, "Hey, I found my shoes and my house keys. I didn't lose the rabbit."

"Is that him over there?" Hiei pointed at a small moving shape that was eating the rest of Yusuke's playing cards.

Autumn turned around in her chair to look. She grumbled something about rabbit ear muffs before standing up and walking over to the rabbit. She picked him up and carried him back into the dining room. She sat back down and held him in her lap. "I told you I didn't lose my rabbit."

"Yusuke's not going to be too happy about his cards." Kurama pointed out.

"We'll tell him Kuwabara ate them." Flash shrugged, "He's stupid enough to fall for that."

Freckles put his paws on the table so he could look at everyone. He started nibbling on Kurama's sleeve. Kurama smiled and pat the rabbit on the head only to discover that Freckles had no intention of letting him stop the petting.

"How long is he going to keep me petting him?" Kurama asked.

Autumn smirked, "Probably about an hour or two."

Kurama sighed, "Wonderful."

"What connection do you two and that boy have to the crystal we're looking for?" Hiei asked.

Autumn and Flash exchanged glances. Autumn shook her head a little bit, "We don't know."

"I think you're lying." Hiei narrowed his eyes at Autumn.

Autumn met his untrusting gaze with a glare, "Well, I'm not. We don't know why we're involved in this. Right, Flash?"

"Right." Flash nodded.

Hiei still looked suspicious of them. Kurama decided to interrupt, "We found out from Thorn that the crystal used to be kept in the Mist Mountains. I thought you two might like to know that."

Flash's eyes widened slightly as if she had just realized something. Autumn nodded in a way that made it seem that she either didn't care or had already known that. There was silence among the group as everyone got lost in their own thoughts. Kurama continued petting the rabbit's head.

"So, Flash, why are you living in Ningenkai?" Thorn asked to break the silence.

Flash shook her head, "I'd rather not say, if that's alright with you."

Thorn nodded in understanding. Silence fell over the group again. Autumn decided she didn't like the silence. She looked around to come up with something to say or do. She sighed.

"Too bad Hinote's sleeping...We could've gotten him to do something stupid to keep us all entertained. Like the time he walked into my gate even though it was swung open and away from the walkway..." Autumn recalled.

Flash smirked, "He's such an idiot."

"Hey! We could always put makeup and girly hair accessories on the bakas over there!" Autumn chirped happily as she pointed at Yusuke and Kuwabara.

Kurama shook his head, "That would be cruel and uncalled for. There is no need for actions such as those and it would only start a conflict between you four. They would hate you more than they already do."

Flash and Autumn looked down at the table in silence for a bit. Autumn let Freckles hop to the floor. After a moment of silence both girls stood up at the same time.

"I'll get the makeup." Flash stated.

"And I'll get the hair stuff." Autumn added.

Kurama sighed as the girls ran off to their rooms. Hiei smirked at the thought of what the girls had planned. Thorn walked off to see what she could do to help.
