Yay! 5th chapter! I'm sorry it took so long to update but I have lots of reasons why writer's block, school, working on writing a manuscript, and so on so forth. Anyway, thank you so much to all those who reviewed, you make me all so happy! I hope you read, like, and review this chapter and look out for the next.

Note: I don't have a certain day of the week I try to post by, I just post as soon as I can. So, if I say I'll try to update by on a certain date, chances are I won't make my deadline.

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho, converses©, or the shirt that is mentioned. I only own Kumi.

Her Bleeding Eyes

Yusuke and Kuwabara laid on the floor of Genkai's temple, bored out of their minds. This was one of the rare moments in a week the two weren't fighting. Yusuke was still strongly against taking care of Koenma's 'science project' and Kuwabara kept bringing up the excessively used 'She's a woman, blah, blah, blah' speech.

The none-too-welcomed voice of Botan filled their ears as she and Yukina entered the living room. Instantly, Kuwabara declared his undying love to the little ice apparition. Yukina's cheeks colored with an innocent blush at her unknowing crush's words. Botan almost forgot her reasons for being there at the adorable sight. Yusuke, however, made gagging noises while sticking his finger down his throat.

"Oh shut it, Urameshi," the taller teen grunted. "Botan what do you want?" "Huh? Oh, yes. Koenma-sama has a message for you; Kumi will be moved here tomorrow at 2:45 pm." "She's coming already? It's only been a week," Yusuke thought aloud. Kuwabara looked over to Yukina with a worried look; Botan knew right away what he was thinking. "Don't fret, Kuwabara. At least for the first month here, she'll have energy-restraining bonds on, but I'm pretty sure she won't try anything. If she does, you guys have handled worse."

"I can't wait to meet her," Yukina said sweetly. Yusuke went to lay back on the floor, but unbeknownst to him Genkai was standing behind him. "Ah! Grandma!! What are doing here….when you get here?" Yusuke choked out. "This is my house, you dimwit," she retorted, "And stop drooling on the floors!" She pointed to the small puddle of drool from where Yusuke had been laying. Everyone wrinkled their noses and left with their own variations of 'ewww.'

"Yusuke, wake up!" Genkai barked at the sleeping teen. He muttered something incoherent and twitched his arms. Annoyed, the old woman filled a pot with water and threw it on him. Yusuke shot off of the futon before she could blink, "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" he screeched out. "You need to wake up, Koenma's coming in ten minutes, and I don't want to listen to him whine if everyone's not there," she said walking out the door. Yusuke was very confused, what was Genkai talking about? In the living room Kurama, Hiei (against his will), Kuwabara, Botan, Keiko, Shizuru, and Yukina were all gathered together.

"What's going on? More importantly, what time is it?" Yusuke growled out to no one in particular. "Its 2:45am, I told you this is the time Koenma's bringing Shado-er I mean Kumi over," Botan answered. "You said 2:45pm," he said between gritted teeth. "Ooops! I must've gotten the 'am' and 'pm' mixed up!" she said innocently with her sleeve raised to her mouth. "Ooops? Ooops? I was woken up at 2:45 am because you can't tell time?!" "Well, in my defense, you would have been woken up anyway!" she squeaked out. Yusuke had no rebuttal.

Everyone moved outside and within five minutes of standing on the porch, a large portal appeared. First came out two strong-looking ogres, then two more carrying between them the heavily chained Kumi, Jorge and Koenma appeared last. The last four to come from the portal approached the porch, the two ogres none-too-nicely dragged the woman after them.

"Here she's your responsibility now. I'll check back in about a month to make sure everything's going okay, contact me if she does anything," Koenma spoke, sounding annoyed, "If she tries to use any of her powers a powerful electric shock will be sent through her body, so don't worry about that. Any questions?" "Yeah, one; why did you hafta bring her here at 3'o clock in the morning?!" Yusuke barked out. "Aheh, umm. Guards take her into the Temple," the prince ordered, ignoring Yusuke's question. While everyone else walked tiredly back inside, Koenma offered Genkai his words of thanks.

Inside everyone headed off to their rooms, deciding the more formal introductions and 'merry chatter' could wait till later. Kumi was given a small tour along the way to her room. After the majority of the chains had been removed and more powerful energy-restraining bands set in place, the ogres left, leaving the woman to look around the room.

Her red eyes took in the bare wooden walls and flooring, a queen-size bed in the corner with a blue comforter and matching pillows, a side table with a lamp, an empty bookshelf, a dresser and mirror combo, a door leading to a walk-in closet, another to a private bathroom, and lastly a sliding glass door covered with a blue curtain leading out to a balcony. All-in-all it was rather plain, but it didn't matter; she didn't plan to stay here to long.

Around one o'clock Yusuke and Kuwabara made their way downstairs after getting as much more sleep as they could. Already downstairs were Kurama, Botan, Keiko, Shizuru, Yukina, and Genkia. "It's about time you two were up," Keiko greeted them. "Hey, is Kumi up yet?" Kuwabara asked, helping himself to some cereal. "No, she's not. Thanks for reminding me, go up and get her," Genkai said, proceeding to gulp down her orange juice. "But, I can't go in her room! I mean, she's a girl, it'd be an invasion of her privacy!" Kuwabara ranted, flustered at the very idea. "Man, I didn't even know you knew what the word 'invasion' meant," Yusuke chuckled.

"Dimwit, go up and get her," Genkai redirected her order. The teen scuttled up the stairs and found the room provided to their newest guest. Without knocking, he soundlessly opened the door and sneaked in.

Amongst the jumbled covers laid a form of a small girl. The afternoon sunlight drifted in through the large window, revealing a different woman than the one who arrived late that night, or more so earlier in the morning. "Hey, Kumi, you need to wake up!" Yusuke shouting, assuming this was her human form. With a startled jerk the woman woke up. Shooting Yusuke dirty looks, she slid out of the bed. In a moment, she stood beside the teen, waiting impatiently as he analyzed her 'new' looks.

Light brown hair came to her waist and green hair brushed against her fore arms, just like the red and black hair had looked before; her eyes were jade green, rimmed with dark lashes, her facial features were about the same, but a little softer; giving her a look of a young teen who was a little lost. In stead of the hospital scrubs, she was now clad in torn and faded denim jeans, black and white striped socks, a short-sleeve black t-shirt that had a rib cage and a heart on it, and the tattered bandages covering her arms.

He led her back downstairs to the kitchen where everyone was still gathered. "Awww, you are just adorable!" Botan squealed, rushing to shake Kumi's hands. Instead, she accidentally collided into Hiei who had just entered the room, thinking the 'adorable' comment was in his direction. "Er, Hi Hiei, it's good to see you," the ferrywoman spewed out without thinking as she stumbled backwards. "Sorry!" she squeaked again as she realized what she had said. Kumi took a seat at the table, staring longingly out the window. Everyone else joined her, wanting to start this conversation just so they could get it over with.

"Kumi, what were you doing when you were found?" Botan asked; reading off of the list Koenma had given her. "I was unconscious, I don't know what I was doing," she spat out, shaking slightly. "Okay, umm, Where are you keeping the artifacts you've stolen," she asked again. Hiei, Kurama, and Genkai knew she wouldn't answer this question; the others had low hopes about it also.

"I never stole anything; I only took what was rightfully mine," her voice was level, but threatening. "Well that doesn't make a whole lot of sense, does it?" Botan asked bubbly, earning a dirty look.

"Why am I even here? Others who have committed lesser crimes died on the spot, what have I done to be so special?" her voice stayed soft and level, her eyes dark. Botan opened her mouth to speak, but closed it right away, being at a complete loss of what to say. "I don't even know all of your names and you expect me to answer all of your questions," she inquired again. Of course this started off a role of names.

"I'm the great Kazuma Kuwabara, the tou-" Kuwabara cut off at the look her received from those deep green eyes, "but, you can call me Kuwabara." "I'm Yusuke Urameshi," Yusuke went next, taking the hint to just say names. "Botan." "Keiko Ukimura." "Shizuru Kuwabara." "Yukina." "Genkai." "We've met, and this is Hiei," Kurama ended the role call.

"Well, it doesn't matter even if I know your names; I still can't tell you where my treasures are," Kumi's tone was almost cynical. "And why can't you?" Botan exclaimed. The girl's jade eyes darkened and her face turned to a mask void of expression. "Someone stole them from me."

End

This chapter wasn't that bad, I guess. It was mostly filler, but now I can start building up all the relationships. I know (or at least, I think) Kumi seems really mean, but she's not all that mean. Oh, Kumi in her demon form has a british accent, I don't think I mentioned that before.

Note 2: I'm not following the timeline with the show/manga. Just my own timeline…there might be a certain name for that, but I don't know.

About clothing: the show's supposed to take place around 1995 (I think, sorry if it's not right), but I'm going to use fashions from currently, so don't flame me about it. Also, the shirt that Kumi's wearing is one of my best friends' shirts and I love so I decided to use it. Kumi also wears band shirts sometimes and so, for future reference, I own none of the bands mentioned at all in this story.
