******************THE BEGINNING*****************

	*Yuusuke makes his way through the forever busy building where Koenma 
works, a small smile on his face as he heads to the huge double doors 
of the office where Koenma would be.  He stands at the door and blinks 
as he hears what sounds like moaning coming from the other side.  
Frowning, he pushes the door open so he can go inside*
	*Koenma is sitting in his chair, as usual, in his new teenage form.  
But, to Yuusuke's surprise, Botan is sitting in his lap, her kimono 
partway undone and slipping down her shoulders as Koenma's hands are 
obviously roaming beneath it and they are in the middle of a heated kiss
	[Yuusuke]  Koenma-chan...I'm ready for our...date...*he grows quiet 
and his eyes widen at what he sees, then he glares*  WHAT THE HELL IS 
THIS!
	*Botan turns around in surprise and immediately jumps off Koenma's 
lap, trying to fix her clothes*  Yu...Yusuke?
	*Koenma looks just as surprised and straightens himself in the chair
	*Yuusuke stomps over to the desk, Botan scoots to the corner looking 
afraid, and Yuusuke slaps Koenma as hard as he can*  Bastard *he hisses 
out* is this why you haven't been calling me as much?
	*Koenma frowns back, ignoring the red mark on his face from the slap* 
There are many numbers of reasons I haven't been calling you as much 
Yuusuke, walking in on one moment doesn't allow for assumptions of every 
other time
	[Koenma] My job keeps me very busy, you know that
	[Yuusuke]  *frowns more*  I love the fact that you COMPLETELY ignored 
what I just saw!
	[Yuusuke]  You obviously weren't too busy to fuck someone else while 
you were with me!
	[Botan]  Yuusuke...
	[Yuusuke]  You shut-up!  I have nothing to say to you!
	*Koenma stands up from his chair, leaning on the desk a bit and 
glances to Botan with a stern face* Botan, if you would excuse us
	*Botan nods and hurries out of the office, looking very sad as she 
closes the door behind her*
	*Yuusuke turns to glare at Koenma*  I don't want to hear any excuses
	*Koenma looks back to Yuusuke* Then what do you want to hear?
	[Yuusuke]  Nothing...I'm just going to leave and never come back
	[Koenma] Just like that?  You're just going to turn and walk away?
	[Yuusuke]  Oh jeez Koenma...I just saw you with someone else...what do 
you expect me to do?  If you can just do THAT with someone else...I 
sure as hell can just walk away
	[Yuusuke]  I don't care how much you work, you certainly aren't busy 
when you want a piece of me...or I guess when you want Botan as a little 
side dish
	[Koenma] *glares angrily* You think that's all you mean to me?  A 
moment of stress relief?  A quick fuck?  If that's what I thought of you 
then I wouldn't have bothered in the first place!  You know me better 
then that!
	[Yuusuke]  I thought I did *he says softly* but obviously I don't know 
you.  The Koenma I thought I knew would've never done what I just 
saw...but I was wrong
	*Koenma sighs and walks around the desk, toward Yuusuke, reaching for 
him with a sad face* Yuusuke...
	*Yuusuke backs away from him, frowning*  Don't touch me...you just 
lost the right to touch me...in fact...just forget about me completely 
because I want nothing to do with you anymore
	*Koenma's expression grows hard and he frowns at Yuusuke, then gives a 
shrug* Then leave, see if I care.  You were only a temporary 
replacement for her anyway.  As if anyone could ever be satisfied with you.
	*Yuusuke's eyes widen and burn with tears as he stares into Koenma's 
eyes, looking really hurt*
	[Yuusuke]  Alright *he says softly* I won't be a replacement anymore
	*Koenma sits down in his chair* I have no need of one anymore
	*He then turns around and heads to the door, pushing it open but he 
doesn't leave yet*  And just so you know...I had two people satisfied 
with me...I left them for you *with those words he leaves the office, 
slamming the door behind him*
	*Koenma just glares at the door
	
*************
	
	*Yuusuke lays in his room silently, on his side, his back facing the 
door.  He's looking at the top of his dresser which used to be full of 
photos of him and his friends.  Now those photos are lying on the floor, 
the glass shattered across the carpet, a few of the pictures torn.
	*There is a knock on his bedroom door, a loud one*  YUUSUKE!  YOU HAVE 
VISITORS!
	[Yuusuke] Tell them to go away!
	[Asuko]  It's that short little guy and that fox guy!  They came a 
long way to see you so get your ass up!
	*Yuusuke weakly heaves a pillow at the door* I said GO AWAY!  I don't 
want to talk to anyone!
	[Asuko]  TOO BAD!  I don't give a damn!  You have been in that room 
for DAYS!  So you either open the door or I have one of them break it 
down!
	*Yuusuke gives up and just doesn't answer, rolling over on his bed to 
look down at the pictures again.  Glaring angrily he sees one of him 
and Koenma and throws it at the door, more glass breaking, before he lays 
back on the bed with a loud sigh
	*Asuko jumps at the sound and sighs a bit sadly.  She turns to look at 
Hiei and Kurama, who are standing behind her*  I tried...he won't 
listen...
	*Kurama sighs a bit sadly and gently taps at the door*  Yuusuke, can 
we come in?
	[Yuusuke] Are you all deaf?!  Go Away!!
	[Kurama]  *sighs*  Please Yuu-chan?  We're worried about you
	[Yuusuke] Just... just go, ok?  I'm not in the mood to talk...
	[Kurama]  You don't have to say anything...we're just worried and want 
to see you.  Please Yuu-chan, we won't take long
	[Hiei] If we don't say something to him, he'll stay in there the rest 
of his life *says softer to Kurama*
	*Yuusuke doesn't answer
	[Kurama]  I hate to be so brutal but *he looks at Hiei* can you break 
the door down?
	[Asuko]  Do whatever you want, I'm going out
	[Asuko]  I've tried to get him out for days, if you two don't work 
then I don't know what will *she then leaves the house, leaving the three 
of them alone*
	*Hiei nods and pulls back his fist, hitting the door as hard as he 
can.  The wood around the doorknob splinters and the door flies open, 
hitting the wall on the inside of the room
	*Kurama peaks his head in the room*  Can I turn on a light or 
something?  I'd hate to step on some glass...
	*When Yuusuke doesn't seem to answer Hiei flips on the light for him
	*Kurama looks around the room sadly, seeing all the glass and 
shattered pictures.  He carefully makes his way to the bed and sits on the edge 
of it, gently placing a hand on Yuusuke's shoulder*
	[Kurama]  Hi Yuu-chan *he says softly* can we...talk for a minute?
	*Yuusuke sighs softly, but doesn't shrug off Kurama's hand*
	[Yuusuke] I don't want to talk about it *says quietly*
	[Kurama]  You don't have to, I already know what happened thanks to 
Botan.
	[Kurama]  Please don't be mad at her, it wasn't her fault...Koenma was 
using her too it seems.  And if you think about it...she would never do 
something like that to you
	*Yuusuke winces at the name 
	[Kurama]  I know you don't want to talk about it but...well how about 
I tell you a story
	[Yuusuke] Do what you want...
	[Kurama]  Once upon a time there was a youko named Kurama...who use to 
be very happy
	[Kurama]  He use to be almost as bubbly as Botan at times, believe it 
or not, because he was in love with a demon named Kuronue and he had 
the best cousin in the world whose name was Triton
	*Hiei leans silently against the door, watching with his arms crossed 
and a concerned expression
	*Kurama sighs a bit*  Anyhow, one day, Kurama and Kuronue went to go 
steal stuff so they could get a nice place to live and one day possibly 
get married, at least this is what Kurama wanted
	[Kurama]  But...as they were running away Kuronue was caught, and told 
Kurama to run away
	[Kurama]  Kurama didn't want to *he says softly* but Kuronue made him, 
so Kurama went back to get help from his cousin to try and save 
Kuronue...
	[Kurama]  ...but when he got back, Triton was gone, Kuronue was dead, 
and Kurama was left to survive on his own
	[Kurama]  Kurama had thought that...it was because youkos were never 
meant to be happy...that this was happening to him.  So do you know what 
Kurama did?  He...didn't let anyone in anymore...he turned cold and 
heartless.  He stole and killed and slept around and made anyone who met 
him regret it...because he made other's lives a living hell
	[Kurama]  It took him a long time to realize his mistakes Yuusuke, and 
he's still learning, but the point is that he closed himself off...and 
made those who did actually care for him suffer
	[Kurama]  He hurt himself and others...you saw Yomi...that's living 
proof.  And...us...well as you can see we aren't really...even good 
friends anymore...
	[Yuusuke] It's a sad story, Kurama... but it's not the same *he says 
quietly*
	[Kurama]  In a way it is.  The person you thought loved you cheated on 
you...the one I thought loved me left me...one by death and the other 
just walked out...
	[Kurama]  I know it's not really the same but...our reactions are 
similar...I'm not saying you're going to go around and sleep with anything 
that comes your way but...just like me you're going to hurt yourself 
and the ones who do love you
	[Yuusuke] So what am I suppose to do?  Chin up and be a good little 
spirit detective again?  *gives a cold laugh*  
	[Kurama]  I'm not saying that either.  I'm saying that you should move 
on...don't just lie here...you need to move on Yuusuke.  If you lie 
here then Koenma will think he won...but you have to move on to show him 
what a good thing he lost *he smiles softly at Yuusuke* because he had 
something special and threw it away...kind of like I did I guess...
	[Yuusuke] You said Kuronue died... you didn't throw anything away
	[Kurama]  I wasn't talking about Kuronue *he says softly, not looking 
at Yuusuke anymore*
	*Yuusuke turns his head just a bit and glances back at Kurama quietly 
for a moment
	*Kurama doesn't say anything, just staring down at the glass on the 
floor and all the different pictures*
	[Hiei] You didn't throw that away either Kurama *says softly from the 
door* Sometimes things happen that we can't control.
	*Kurama nods a bit*  Yeah, I guess they do *but he doesn't sound 
really convinced*
	*Yuusuke sighs softly and sits up, his back still to the both of them* 
I can't stay here *he says quietly*
	[Kurama]  You don't have to, there is this one place we were looking 
at...that was sort of why we came over
	[Yuusuke] What kind of place?
	[Kurama]  While staying in the demon world is fun and all...this place 
kind of spoke to me when I saw it...it's really big and roomy...you'd 
like it
	[Kurama]  It's almost like a harem
	[Hiei] You would have to leave your room to see it though
	[Kurama]  Yeah that too...so...do you want to go?
	*Yuusuke pauses for a long moment then slowly nods* yeah... I do
	*Kurama smiles a bit and gives Yuusuke a hug, even if Yuusuke's back 
is still to them*  Thank you Yuu-chan...and by the way...the thing I was 
referring to that I lost was you *with that he lets Yuusuke go and gets 
up, heading to the door*
	*Yuusuke turns in surprise and looks at Kurama
	*Kurama doesn't turn to look at him and keeps walking until he's 
standing in front of Hiei*  Ready to go?
	*A pillow suddenly thwaps Kurama in the back of the head
	*Kurama blinks and turns around, blinking at Yuusuke*  What the hell 
was that for?
	[Yuusuke] Stupid youko, you didn't lose me.  *his expression grows a 
bit more serious* We just... grew apart, that's all... 
	[Kurama]  Yeah...guess you're right...it just felt like I did that's 
all
	[Kurama]  Can we try to not be as apart anymore?  I'd hate to admit it 
but I sort of miss you
	*Yuusuke gives a small smile and nods* I've missed you guys too
	[Kurama]  *smiles too*  Well then, get your ass up and lets go and 
check this place out
	*Yuusuke nods and gets out of the bed, grabbing his jean jacket from 
the chair as he sidesteps the glass
	[Yuusuke] Lead the way, oh fox and short man
	*Hiei gives him a good natured glare
	[Kurama]  Ha ha...he called you short Hiei
	[Kurama]  *smiles at Yuusuke*  Come on you little deliquent, let's go
	[Hiei] I won't hurt him, because he was depressed, but that doesn't 
save you *tugs on Kurama's tail to make his point*
	[Kurama]  ITAI!  I didn't call you short he did!
	[Hiei] Hmph
	[Kurama]  Hmph, see if you get any youko tail tonight *with that he 
stomps out of the room, his tail wagging behind him*
	*Yuusuke chuckles softly* He's still difficult?
	[Kurama]  I HEARD that Yuusuke!
	[Hiei] As difficult as ever *says with a nod*  
	*Yuusuke chuckles and walks with Hiei after Kurama

****************

	*Heero blinks, looking up at the large building* Quatre, we're buying 
a house for ourselves, not a whole colony
	[Duo]  But it looks so cool!  Can I go in and check it out?  Please 
Hee-chan?  Please?
	[Heero] Oh go ahead, knock yourself out
	*Quatre is standing by the door, holding the keys in his hand*  Enjoy 
Duo *he hands Duo the keys*
	[Duo]  YAY *he runs inside the harem and can be heard screaming about 
how great the place is*
	*Heero just shakes his head muttering "Baka"
	[Quatre]  *smiles*  This place is perfect for the five of us, we all 
need space sometimes and this would be perfect
	[Quatre]  It has a pretty decent garden, a nice kitchen and living 
room, and each bedroom has a bathroom I believe
	[Trowa] *walks up beside Quatre and steps inside, looking around at 
the kitchen area and living room*
	[Quatre]  See...isn't it a nice place?
	*Duo comes back smiling at Quatre*  I love it, can we have it, please?
	[Wufei] A practice room as well *seems to nod his approval as he looks 
around*
	[Trowa] I have no objection
	[Quatre]  I don't either
	[Duo]  Hee-chan *he pouts at him* please?
	*Heero nods and gives Duo's pouting lips a kiss
	[Duo]  We got ourselves a place!
	*There is a soft knock on the door and some steps inside, looking 
around the place*  Wow, this is nice
	[Duo]  Yeah it...is...*he blinks a bit*
	*Quatre turns around and stares*
	*Trowa turns and his eyes widen
	*Kurama looks around the place and smiles*  Hai, I like it, it's 
perfect *he notices the g-boys and smiles at them*  Hello there
	[Duo]  Uh...Hee-chan...am I seeing what I think I'm seeing?
	[Heero] Are you referring to the ears or the tail?
	*Kurama blinks at the stares and then chuckles*  Oh yeah...sorry...my 
name is Kurama and I'm a youko.  Nice to met you all *he smiles at them 
all then he blinks a bit, his eyes locking on Trowa*
	[Quatre]  Youko...as in...a fox?
	[Trowa] *takes a step forward blinking* Cuz?
	*Kurama doesn't seem to listen as he stares at Trowa, then he smiles 
and pounces Trowa to the ground*  TRITON-CHAN!
	[Duo]  Whoa...that wasn't expected...
	*Trowa gives a small cry of surprise as the others blink and stare
	[Quatre]  Chan?  *he glares at Kurama*  GET OFF OF HIM RIGHT NOW!  
He's MINE!
	*Kurama hugs Trowa tightly, a bright smile on his face*  Where the 
hell have you been Triton?  I've been looking all over for you!
	*Quatre growls at Kurama and tugs at his tail hard*  Get OFF of him!
	[Kurama]  ITAI!  LITTLE BRAT *he jumps up and pulls a rose out of his 
hair and turns it into the whip*
	[Trowa] Cuz, you're gonna strangle me... *notices Quatre and looks a 
little worried* Quatre, calm down, I can explain
	[Duo]  ACK!  How did he do that!  What's going on!
	*Trowa jumps between the two of them* Hold up a second both of you!
	[Kurama]  Triton, tell the little blond NOT to touch the tail!  	
[Quatre]  Trowa...tell the youko not to pounce you anymore!
	*A shorter guy walks in through the door and sees the scene, he frowns 
and walks over by Kurama, raising an amused eyebrow
	[Trowa] Will both of you calm down?
	[Quatre]  NO!  He had the nerve to *he looks over at Hiei and frowns a 
bit*  who the hell are you?
	[Duo]  It's a kid...
	*Hiei turns a death glare on Duo, that's worse then Heero's
	*Kurama blinks a bit and chuckles*  Oh no no no...he's not a kid.  
He's Hiei
	[Quatre]  Don't tell me he knows Trowa too
	[Kurama]  Trowa?  You mean Triton?
	[Quatre]  Triton?  *he looks at Trowa*  What is he talking about?
	*Trowa sighs and turns to Quatre* If I explain will you two calm down?
	*Yuusuke walks in and watches everyone from the door, not really 
stepping in yet*
	[Heero] This should be interesting
	[Kurama]  Fine, I'll calm down, just tell the blond not to touch the 
tail
	[Quatre]  Trowa...how the hell do you know this...this...
	[Yuusuke]  Youko?
	*Quatre turns to look at Yuusuke and frowns*  Are you some kind of 
creature too?
	[Yuusuke]  Naw...just half demon...I'm Yuusuke, nice to meet you
	*Quatre blinks in confusion then looks at Hiei*  What about you?
	[Hiei] Demon
	[Duo]  So we have a half demon, a full demon, and a fox guy.  And 
somehow Trowa knows the fox guy...how...is this?
	[Kurama]  Triton...I'm hurt...you didn't tell your friends about me?  
And we're family!
	[Quatre]  Fa...mily?
	[Trowa] If you'll give me a moment... *gestures to Kurama with a bit 
of a lost expression* Guys, meet my cousin, Kurama
	*Quatre blinks a bit and looks at the two of them, then he faints*
	[Duo]  Way to go Trowa...knock out the guy!
	*Trowa sighs and rushes over to Quatre, gently trying to wake him up
	[Kurama]  I think the best way to discuss this is over tea...anyone 
have any that I can fix real fast?
	[Heero] There might be some in the kitchen
	*Kurama nods and heads to the kitchen*
	[Duo]  The fox guy...can fix tea...
	*Hiei rolls his eyes* Because tea solves everything
	[Yuusuke]  The fox guy can do a lot...
	[Duo]  So...are one of you with the fox guy...he's kind of cute...
	[Hiei] He's not a fox guy *says with a frown* And he's taken
	[Duo]  *blinks*  By you?
	[Duo]  You're so short
	*Yuusuke laughs*
	[Hiei] *glares* And you're annoying, you're point?
	[Duo]  HEY!  Hee-chan he insulted me!
	*Heero chuckles a bit at that one
	[Duo]  HEERO!
	[Heero] You walked into it.  
	[Duo]  So is fox guy in charge of the relationship?
	*Hiei glares dangerously at Duo
	*Kurama walks in carrying a tray of tea*  Actually the short guy is 
seme...
	[Duo]  REALLY?
	*Kurama nods*
	[Duo]  But...but *he looks in between the two in shock*
	*At the same time Quatre moans softly, waking up and looking around at 
everyone*
	*Heero walks over and places a hand on Duo's shoulder* Best not to ask 
too many questions
	[Duo]  Hai...I guess you are right...
	[Trowa] How are you feeling?
	[Quatre]  O.K. I guess...I had this strange dream that you were 
related to this pretty fox creature
	*Kurama waves to Quatre*  That would be me
	*Trowa frowns a bit* It wasn't a dream, Quatre
	*Quatre blinks and looks at Kurama, then at Trowa*  O.K.  You 
uh...care to explain how the HELL THAT CAN BE TRUE?
	*Trowa helps Quatre sit up and nods
	[Yuusuke]  Oh story time, I love a good story *he sits down and sips 
at the tea Kurama brought out*
	[Trowa] It's simple, actually.  I'm not human
	[Quatre]  *blinks again*  You mean you're a...youko...too?
	*Trowa nods
	[Quatre]  You mean I've been sleeping with a pretty fox creature and 
didn't even KNOW it?
	*Trowa blushes a bit* Um, yes
	[Kurama]  *giggles as he sips his tea*
	[Quatre]  You mean I could've been in bed with something like THAT *he 
points to Kurama* do you know what kind of things I could've been doing 
to you?
	[Duo]  As you can see...Quatre at times has a one track mind
	*Trowa blushes more now* Quatre!
	[Kurama]  So does Hiei, I'm use to it
	*Hiei smirks
	[Quatre]  Seriously...why didn't you say anything to us?
	[Duo]  Yeah, and how did you become human?
	[Trowa] It's not something I wanted to spread around, that's all.  Not 
that I didn't trust you guys, I just... didn't want to overly 
complicate things
	*Quatre nods*  Were you ever going to tell me?
	[Trowa] Yes, eventually *looks a little guilty* 
	[Quatre]  Well...this is a strange turn of events...*he smiles a bit* 
but I love you just the same
	*Heero glances between the two* There is a small resemblance... even 
if Trowa isn't... a fox right now
	*Trowa looks relieved at that
	[Kurama]  That is so sweet, isn't it Hiei-chan?
	[Hiei] *just gives Kurama a look and doesn't comment*
	*Kurama sticks his tongue out at Hiei and grabs the tray, taking it 
back to the kitchen*
	*Suddenly there is a loud scream coming from the kitchen*
	*Hiei jumps up and whirls around 
	[Yuusuke]  Uh oh...that doesn't sound good...
	[Duo]  We better check it out
	*Trowa looks toward the kitchen door and stands up cautiously
	*Heero nods
	*Hiei heads for the kitchen
	*Kurama is standing outside looking around, a sad look on his face*  
My poor babies...no one has taken care of you in ages...
	[Yuusuke]  *stands behind Hiei and sighs a bit*  He isn't talking 
about...what I think he's talking about is he?
	*As soon as Hiei enters the kitchen he gives an exasperated sigh* I 
should have known *he grumbles*
	[Duo]  What?  What happened?
	[Quatre]  What's wrong with him?
	*Trowa steps into the kitchen and blinks at his cousin, then chuckles 
softly
	*Kurama comes back in and gives Hiei a sad look*  They're almost dead 
love...
	[Trowa] You never change, cuz
	[Kurama]  But...I can't let them die
	[Heero] Who's almost dead?
	[Hiei] So then go fix them, no one's stopping you
	*Kurama gets a sad look on his face as he looks at Heero*  The 
plantlife
	[Duo]  The...plantlife?
	*Heero blinks in confusion
	[Kurama]  Everyone come outside, I can save them...
	*He then goes outside*
	[Quatre]  Trowa...what...is he talking about?
	*Hiei follows him
	*Duo shrugs and goes outside too, along with Yuusuke*
	[Trowa] This might be the best way to explain what both of us are, 
come on you'll see
	*Quatre nods and follows Trowa*
	*Heero and Trowa head out to the garden
	*Kurama is standing in the middle of the garden and sighs softly, 
closing his eyes.  He looks at one of the roses and touches it with his 
finger, and it immediately grows.  As if in a chain reaction, the flowers 
around it grow as well, the garden seeming to grow with more plantlife 
from that one touch*
	*Duo gasps in surprise as all the plants seem to respond to Kurama and 
grow right before their eyes*
	*Heero blinks in surprise, reaching over and touching one of the 
flowers, as if not believeing it's real
	[Yuusuke]  Youko's still got it, he must've been practicing because 
he's never done it this fast before...
	[Quatre]  Wow...that's amazing...
	[Hiei] He does practice it more now *nods to Yuusuke*
	[Trowa] *looks at his cuz* Show off *he murmurs*
	*Kurama turns to smile at everyone*  It was nothing, I can control 
plants...see *to demonstate more he touches the leaf of one of the roses.  
It suddenly shoots out like a vine and ties up Hiei, bring him to him.  
Once's he's in front of him and grins at him and gives him a kiss*
	[Quatre]  Now THAT was cool...I need to learn how to do that with 
Trowa
	[Trowa] Uhhh, no you don't
	[Quatre]  Yes I do *he grins a bit*
	*Hiei pulls out of the vines, smirking at Kurama
	*Trowa sweatdrops
	[Kurama]  I had to do that to demonstrate love, hope you don't mind
	[Duo]  Hey Trowa...can you do the same thing?
	[Hiei] I'll let you get away with it, this time
	*Kurama smiles at Hiei*
	*Trowa shakes his head* I can't control plants.  
	[Kurama]  Oh yeah...you do that mist thingie right?
	*Trowa nods
	[Quatre]  Mist...thingie?
	[Duo]  SHOW US!  I WANNA SEE!
	[Yuusuke]  I want to see too, all I've ever seen from youkos were 
plants
	*Trowa turns to look at Quatre and doesn't seem to do anything.  But 
mist starts to seep in around their feet, and a small amount of it 
swirls up around Quatre and blows his hair about, actually almost tickling 
him a bit, then it curls into the air and flies forward to swirl around 
Trowa's hand
	*Quatre blinks in surprise at Trowa, his eyes wide as he looks at the 
swirl around Trowa's hand*
	[Kurama]  Ah, I remember that trick...and here I was hoping you'd 
transform...
	[Trowa] Impacient aren't we?  *glances back at his cuz*
	[Duo]  Transform?
	[Kurama]  You know me
	[Yuusuke]  I'm guessing he can turn into a youko too
	*The swirl moves from Trowa's hand and grows large, spinning around 
him to completely hide him from view, then it seems to sink down like 
water, in ripples, flowing away to reveal a youko who looks much like 
Kurama standing there, but his hair resembles the human Trowa's hair and 
he's wearing light green
	[Duo]  COOL!  
	*Quatre blinks in surprise and just stares at Trowa*
	[Kurama]  There's the cousin I remember
	[Yuusuke]  He looks a lot like you Kurama
	[Heero] Almost like brothers, by human standards
	[Kurama]  I guess you could say that *he smiles at Trowa then giggles*  
Cuz...I think your boyfriend is in shock...
	*Trowa looks at Quatre* You still there?  *notices the glazed look on 
his face*
	*Quatre still stares at Trowa, not even blinking or anything*
	[Quatre]  I...I'm here...
	[Trowa] Would it help if I turned back?
	[Quatre]  No...you don't have to *he goes to hug Trowa, a smile on his 
face* it doesn't matter what form you take
	*Trowa smiles and hugs the shorter blond back
	[Kurama]  Again...awwww....
	[Heero] This is a daily occurance for those two, trust me
	[Duo]  Well now that we've seen everything...uh...should we get 
settled in this place...I think I've seen enough...
	[Kurama]  Never thought cuz was the sappy type....and *he blinks* wait 
a minute...you guys are staying here?
	*Trowa turns to look at his cuz* We were planning on it
	*Quatre pulls away from the hug and nods to Kurama*
	[Kurama]  Oh...well uh...
	[Yuusuke]  Yeah...I mean I guess it was too big for just three of 
us...
	[Heero] It's too big for the five of us
	[Quatre]  Well it's uh...kind of big for only five of us...you guess 
can stay here...
	[Kurama]  We can?  Really?  How much should we put in on the rent?
	*Trowa chuckles
	[Quatre]  Rent?  *he blinks*
	[Quatre]  What...does he mean rent?
	[Trowa] Cuz, did I mention that my boyfriend's name is Quatre Winner?
	[Kurama]  Quatre Win...ner?
	*Trowa nods
	[Yuusuke]  Who is he?  Someone famous?
	[Hiei] Baka, even I know who he is
	[Kurama]  He's only one of the most FAMOUS people in the human world!
	*Quatre smiles*  I'm not that famous, but hai, I'm him.  This is Heero 
and Duo, and you know Trowa
	[Quatre]  And you don't have to put in anything, I'm buying this place
	[Kurama]  Uh....o.k....so what can we do to earn our keep?  I feel odd 
if we don't do something...
	[Quatre] Is your cuz always like this?
	[Trowa] Yes
	[Yuusuke]  Hai he is
	[Quatre]  Fine, how about you take care of the garden
	[Kurama]  That works *he smiles at them, then he frowns*  Wait a 
minute...you said five of you guys...
	[Duo]  Oh yeah...there are five...the other one is...uh...
	*Trowa glances around* Where is Wufei?
	[Quatre]  He must've walked off somewhere....Duo....please go and get 
him
	*Yuusuke looks around the garden and he blinks as he sees someone 
watching them*  Uh...guys...before you get him...is that him over there?
	*Duo blinks and turns to where Yuusuke is looking*  Oh yes, that's 
him...WU-BEAR!
	[Quatre]  *giggles*  Baka, come and say hello to our new roomies
	*Wufei walks over, glaring at Duo* Maxwell! Stop calling me that
	*Yuusuke blinks a bit when he gets a good look at Wufei, his eyes 
locked on him and staring at him*
	[Kurama]  *blinks at Yuusuke then he grins, gently nudging Hiei*
	[Duo]  But it's cute Wu-bear *giggles* now introduce yourself to our 
new friends
	*Hiei glances over and notices, blinking, then giving a small nod*
	*Wufei scowls at Duo then turns to the others and pushes the hair out 
of his face, giving a polite nod* Chang Wufei
	*Kurama smiles at him*  I'm Kurama, nice to meet you.  
	*Hiei nods a greeting
	*Yuusuke just stares at him, trying to speak but not really able to*  
I...I...
	*Kurama whispers*  Your name is Yuusuke
	*Wufei looks to Yuusuke and raises an eyebrow
	[Yuusuke]  Right...I'm Yuusuke...hi
	[Wufei] *nods* Hello
	[Yuusuke]   Nice to meet you...*he tries not to blush and fails*
	[Kurama]  *smiles at Hiei*  I'm going to melt
	*Trowa blinks when he sees the blush
	[Quatre]  Someone's got a crush
	[Hiei] Shh, baka
	*Kurama giggles*
	*Yuusuke quickly ducks his head so Wufei won't see the blush*
	*wufei turns to face the others* Our new roommates?  They're moving in 
with us then?
	[Duo]  Yep, Kurama is related to Trowa so these three will be our new 
roomies
	*Wufei nods and gives a quick glance to Yuusuke* This should prove to 
be interesting
	*Yuusuke blinks up at him and blushes harder*  
Haiitshouldexcusemeineedtogo *he then leaves the garden rather quickly*
	*Kurama watches him go and giggles*  In case you didn't catch 
that...he said that it would be interesting and that he has to go
	*Wufei blinks a bit in confusion as he watches Yuusuke run off
	[Quatre]  Well well well...Mr. Chang may have finally found someone 
*he says to Trowa*
	*Trowa nods* About time
	[Kurama]  *looks at Hiei*  I have a feeling living in this place will 
never get dull
	*Hiei nods
