Hello there, people! Just wanted to clear some things out:

To all those who asked if I was Filipino, the answer is yes.

About writing a sequel to "Kurama Goes Bald", I'm not sure. I still can't think about anything. But that doesn't mean that I won't be writing a sequel, so hang in there!

Gomen to all those Kurama fans out there. I just couldn't stop myself! But don't get me wrong. I like him, too, but not as much as Hiei. *_*;

"Kurama Goes Bald" is my first fic. I'm a particularly new writer (13 years old) so I'm gonna need a lot of C&C's so keep them coming!

This fic is a love story. I'm not familiar with romance so please help me!!! Please give me some advice! E-mail me at [email protected].

Don't expect any Yaoi fics from me. :P I don't support that idea. Especially Hiei x Kurama. They're just friends.

Me and my friend Unica_fire (no, he's not a member... yet.) are planning on writing a STRANGE story... O_o;

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho, although I wish I did. It belongs to Yoshihiro Togashi.

What's Love?

Chapter 1

Thoughts



The sun's up. Hn. It's morning, another day for me to live this damned life. I sometimes wish that I were never born. Well, this is my fate; I guess I'll just have to accept that. But I still wish that my life would end soon, to finish all that suffering. I hate it. Yukina's the only reason I continue to live. But the pain in her eyes whenever I tell her that I haven't found her brother just encourages me to die. Death... such a strong word.

~*~

As I pass by the trees, I see two ningens. One's a boy while the other's a girl. They're smiling... at each other. They look like they're about to eat each other's face. Too sweet. They're so in love with each other. What's this? Do I feel jealous? Hn. Why? What's to be jealous about? Them? Or something else? Love?

What is love? I've never experienced it. No, not brotherly love. Love. What is 'it'?

Pleasure? Probably. A lot claim that when you love somebody, you feel good... pleased. Joy surrounds you. But...

Others say different.

Craziness? Definitely. You act strangely. Like you've got no control of yourself. But they say that they like the feeling of 'crazy'. Idiots. Just like that stupid ningen couple there. They irk me.

But some say something else.

Pain? Why? Will you get hurt? Some say that when you love, you will experience pain. Pain of being left, waiting for that day to come, not being loved. Then why fall in love in the first place? Stupid ningens and their stupid ideas. But why do I feel this way? Why am I so upset about it?

~*~

I leave the Ningenkai. I go to the Makai in search of a challenge. To get rid of these stupid ideas of mine. What's that? I hear a sound from a bush behind me. I turn around. Hn. Finally, an opponent. The four-eyed creature glares at me. He's hungry, but I don't want to be his breakfast. I unsheathed my katana and charged at the disgusting beast. Slash! I cut him in half. "Weakling." I muttered.

Hn. That cut my thoughts. Good. Then I'll find another victim. I hear something up ahead. I hide behind a tree and spied. Another beast, this time with one eye and four arms. Hn. They come in all shapes and sizes. But they all have a common denominator... the word ugly.

The youkai spots me. I move away from my hiding place and charged at him. He's fast. He dodged my attack and started to shower me with acid. I evaded it. Hn. This guy can put up a fight. I opened my Jagan and summoned some hellfire. Haven't used it in a couple of weeks. I throw it at him. He shrieks in agony. I overestimated him. That fire was just meant for ningens. Another loser.

~*~

I continued on my journey. Then something pops in my gray matter. Why would I need love? I'd just become weak, like ningens. I don't want that to happen. Hn. That closes it all. Love would just make me weak. But then something pops in again. But what if I experienced love? What if I was loved, instead of being hated? What it I learned to love? I shake my head. Nah. Then I wouldn't be me. I'd be weak. Weak. I AM not weak. But still, why do I feel this way? I need to get rid of this before I become weak.

I look at myself. Now I'm all covered with blood and it's beginning to stink. I head to a nearby river. I had to wash this off. I took off my shirt, went into the water and started scrubbing. Suddenly, I hear something move behind the big rock in front of me. I grab my katana and climbed up the rock to look. Another youkai. I can't quite describe him. His hair is all I can see. Long, black hair. He was bathing as well. But I can never be too sure. I jump in front of him, my katana on his throat. I was about to kill him when...

Beautiful purple eyes met me. His eyes tell me that he was afraid. He was fair-skinned and he was as tall as I am. He's beautiful. He? I looked down. I felt my cheeks redden.

He was a she! I was caught off-guard. I took a step back. I look at her again. She was as red as a tomato. She immediately took her towel and covered herself. She looked at me. Huh? Why is my heart beating so fast? Her features softened a little. Then she said something that shook me.
