• Chapter Three
    Yana

    tab School was finally done for the day, the sun started to set as I made my way home. The boys where glade that Kurama didn't show up to school so that they could try and flirt with me. I kept my word and told them to beat it unless they wanted to feel his wrath. That made them get as far away from me as ever. I had to do some shopping before making my way back to the empty house where I would be all night.
    tab I got what I needed and went back home, half hoping that Kurama would be there waiting for me and wanting dinner. My hopes where killed when I found that the house was empty and no life was there. I sighed as I put the food away and started cooking dinner for my self and sat down at the table and started doing the homework for tonight.
    tab It wasn't as fun as what it normally is, Kurama would always be next to me helping me with the things I never got and showing me how to do the problem the right way and what the answer should be. Now it was only me and hoping that I would get the right answer and maybe if he was home in the morning have him look them over and help me get the right ones. I stop to check on my dinner, it still needed time to cook. I sighed as I made my way back to the table to finish my home work.
    tab When both dinner and home work was done I went up stars with my book bag and set it down by my desk and changed out of my uniform and into my normal clothes. I had time to sit around the house and do nothing before going to bed and starting the next day just like today. Only this time hoping that Kurama would be there to make the day better then what today was. I made my way back down stairs and did what little dishes was waiting for my by the sink. I washed and dried just like always and put them away, all the time thinking of what Kurama and that demon Hiei, and that third low class was up to now.
    tab I couldn't stand being on the side lines and hoping for the best. I wanted to do something, and that something wasn't just standing here. I got some what mad and thought I almost broke one of the dishes. I finished up and went out side to the woods that was in back of the house. I was glade that there was something to do and not be in that house. I took a little walk on the path that lead to a bench that Kurama had set out there for us. It was by the cherry tree that he loved so much.
    tab I sat down and looked up at it, this was where Yana first came to me when I was 12, and Yoko did the same for Kurama. That was when I knew this was my home, that this was going to be the rest of my life. Something sparked her to want to come out and show herself to Kurama, to show him that she was here. It wasn't just me that was here, it was also Kurama, but Yoko and Yana wanted the other to know that they where here, and made the transform into their deman bodies.
    tab That was the first night that I knew that both of us was not alone, that we housed more power then anything. Yana is a dark fox, I know that she is a demon fox, but she isn't a light colored fox. Her hair is a deep blue, along with her ears. However, her tail isn't the same color, and she doesn't just have one she has nine tails. All white with some light brown at the end. However, her spirit form is a blue and black fox with little blue wings on her side.
    tab I don't want her to come out, I want to live this human life as long as I can, however, I think Yana wants to come out and be who she really is. I look up at the sky, the stars where bright tonight and so was the moon. “It's almost a full moon,” I said to myself. I'm being crazy, talking to myself and no one is even here. I got up and walked over to the cherry tree, I placed my hands on it to see what it might show me of what is to come, and if Kurama and I will ever marry.
    tab What I seen was not what I wanted to see, most of the times I can never see what happened in the past, but this was one of the times that I could. It was that day three years ago when Kurama and I both turned into our demon forms. I took my hands a way from the tree and looked up at it. “So you know that day too! You want me to see it all the time don't you! To let me know that I am a sin and I shouldn't be here! Your just like every one else tree and that is really sad coming from you!” I turned and stormed off, mumbling under my breath about that tree. I made it back into the house with out breaking anything. I stormed upstairs to my room flopped down on my bed and looked out the window. “Just my luck. The things I don't want to see or remember keep flying in my head. Why did my powers have to be knowing what was going to happen? Was it only to help Yoko do the job that he loved to do so well?” I sighed as I turned away from the window, my eyes landing on my school bag. I sighed heavy as I picked my self up off the bed and made my way over to it.
    tab I dug through my book bag to find my phone. I flipped it open to find that I had a few new messages. I called my voice mail to hear them. The first two was from mother when I was still in school, saying that she was sorry that she didn't call and that she would call again to talk to me. The last one was from Kurama, saying that he made it back from Spirit world unharmed and that he would be home before I went to bed. I looked over at the clock and it was about the time that he said he would be home.
    tab I closed my phone and turned on the ringer hoping that mother would call soon so I could talk to her. I walked back over to my bed and set it on the night stand. I laid back down and looked out the window at the stars and the moon. I didn't like being in this house by myself, it was far too big and it scares me all the time thinking some one is going to try and sneak in here. I heard something from down stairs. CRAP!! I didn't lock the doors! I jumped out of bed and ran down stairs, then it hit me, my bow and arrows where up stairs in my room. CRAP! Just my luck, I guess I'm going to have to use the rose whip then and hope this guy is a mental case before I hit him with it.
    tab I took out my rose and held it close to my face as I tip toed down stairs. Something was off about this person that came in, like I know the sent. I stopped to see his eyes on me, god, why are your eyes so green? And why is it that you know everything before I even think about what I am doing?
    tab I put my hand down that held the rose and almost ran down the rest of the stairs. I throw my arms around him as I hugged, his hands doing the same around me as he kissed my neck softly. “I missed you to Aithne. Back with out any harm done, well, not to me at least. The guards are another matter.” He laughed lightly as he kissed me again.
    tab I looked up at him, “I thought I locked the doors, or was I just thinking that I did?” I knew I would get a little scolding from him if I didn't, but some how I thought I locked them when I came in.
    tab “No, you locked them, I just happened to take a key before I left this morning. Hiei will becoming here shortly to have a place to rest for the night. I hope that you two will behave for a little bit before we all get some rest?”
    tab I rolled my eyes, I hated Hiei the first time we fought years ago, and now I have to be kind to him after he jumped me. “I guess, I'm not really happy that you teamed up with that three eyed freak.” I let go of him and started up stairs. “I'm glade this time you left me out of this team, because him and I would be at each others throats the whole time.” I stopped dead at the landing on the top floor, I heard my cell phone going off. I made a run to my room before it stopped and picked it up “Hello?”
    I answered. I waited, and nothing. Shoot....I picked it up to late. I took the phone away from my ear, no its showing that I connected. “Hello, mom are you there?” Still nothing.
    tab “Mom are you alright, what's wrong?!” Still I got nothing. At this point I could feel Kurama right by me, something was wrong and I didn't like this. “Mother, are you there? Its me, I'm on the phone! What is going on over there!?” At that point in time I heard a scream and then the line went dead. I held the phone open and looked at Kurama, something wasn't right and I didn't like how that ended.
    tab The room darkened and I wanted this one to come, I wanted to see what was going on in the states, the only time that I wanted to see home and be away from here. The house was a mess things thrown all over the place, mother and father where alright, that was a good thing. However the only things that where gone was the letters that I have written to them and a few of my things that I left over there. Who ever or what ever it was, was going after me.
    tab I snapped back and faced Kurama, “they are fine, but what ever was there, they are hunting us down! The letters with our address is gone and a few of my things. They want us, they know who we are!”
    tab I pushed the green call button for mother's number, it rang and she picked up “mom, it's me, what happened?”
    tab I waited, she started to cry a little, “some one broke into the house. None of the money is gone, but a few letters that had your address on and a few of the things that you left are gone. Mostly anything that you wrote in. We looked at some of the tapess before the camera's got chopped up and it looked like a man, a tall one with some one else. I never seen him, so I know that you might not know him.”
    tab I nodded as I listen, “your right I don't know him, but send me a tape so that way I know who to look out for. I don't like the sounds of this at all.”
    tab I waited for her to answer and in a shaken voice she said she would get it out as soon as she can. I told her I loved her and to try and be safe, she said the same to me. I put down the phone after I hung up with her and looked at Kurama. “I don't like people trying to hunt me down when I didn't do anything yet. Some how this man is looking for us as well as Hiei. I seen him in my dream last night, and it wont be a fun thing to go up against him. I'll just stop there before I tell you who it is. Its more fun to go about not knowing things.”
    tab He smiled lightly and nods, “yes it is, but if it kills us I know who to come after in the spirit world.” He smiles the smile that I always loved to see and kisses him slightly. “It won't kill us yet. Or he won't kill us at all, but we will kill him, so don't worry.”
    tab The door opened again and both of us made a run to the stairs, with a scare that just happened with mother I wasn't taking a chance on things. This time I grabbed my bow and arrows before I ran out of the room. I reached the end of the stairs my bow in hand, Kurama half way down the stairs with his rose whip ready. I know Kurama wasn't that stupid on leaving the door unlocked, so this had to be some skilled lock picker.
    tab Just then Hiei stepped out of the shadows and both of us sighed, however I kept my weapon up. He looked up at me and pointed at me, “put that thing down. I'm not going to hurt you Aithne, and you should know that. I don't want to fight Kurama because of you.”
    tab I slowly put my bow down as I walked down the stairs to Kurama and looked down at Hiei. “You do know there is a door bell that you could have used in stead of breaking in.” I glared at him as my arms go into Kurama's. “I know, but I heard all of the fun that was going on and I wanted to scare you some more.” He turned away from me and looked at Kurama, “we need to have a meeting tomorrow, and I hope that you will be there. We need to test this toys first before doing anything.”
    tab He pulled out the sword that he held and pointed it at me. “I wounder if it can make a demon out of a demon?” Kurama moved out in front of me both arms opened up. “I was just kidding Kurama, I know I would never get past you for her.”
    tab I turned and walked back up stairs. “I'll leave you two alone. I'm going to go to bed so that I can get up in the morning.” I stop and turn at the top of the stairs, “Kurama, when you have time could you look over my homework to see if I did everything right. I'll leave them on my desk for you.” I seen him nod as I turned and walked into my room. I walked over to the desk and pulled out my home work and set it on top. I picked up my phone and turned it off for the night. I changed out of my clothes and laid down on the bed.
    tab I slowly started to dart in and out of sleep. Today was not the best day in the world for me. I wish I was back in the states to protect my family, but I'm here, with the one that I love. As I stay asleep this time, I seen the man that was there. The one that all of demon world knows about, and that boy will link us all together.
