Kurama woke up at Minamino's usual time. Although he cannot contact Shuichi yet, he suffers some influence from him. His necklace was a little heavier than the day before, and the ruby was glowing slightly, indicating that it was working;
-Well, it's barely the first day, and I have a lot to do.
Youko does not own a set of clothes, although he can create one without problems. He takes a shower, dresses and then goes to Yomi's room, not far from there.
Yomi is sitting at his desk, as usual. Kibitoshin is nearby, helping him;
-Good morning people.
-Kurama Youko? What a pleasure to have him back.- Yomi turns to his side.
-Kurama? Why have you switched to Youko?
-Well, I'll sit down because the story is long.
-No problem, we have all the time in the world to listen.- Yomi turns his chair to Kurama's side.
-Well, I had gone along with Botan and Byakuya to the spirit world yesterday, and there I met Mr. Enma Daioh. Unlike everyone else's thought, the first test was not there, but it will be here. Enma Daioh challenged me to stay 33 days living as Youko and demanded that I must go through the whole routine Minamino has, but as Kurama Youko.
-33 days? It seems a long time to live as Youko only, Kurama. Since we had met, you have never been more than a few hours as Youko- Yomi observes.
-I know, Yomi, but I cannot even switch to Shuichi again. This necklace that's on my neck possibly blocks that, besides having a size that prevents it from being withdrawn. If I try to do that, it will explode. And, Mr. Enma told me if I made a mistake, thorns would project accordingly from the collar and pierce my neck.
-Wow, he's really smart. Maybe it's no use trying to disarm it, it's not a conventional electronic device.- Kibitoshin analyzes.
-Far from it. But then, how do you intend to repeat Minamino's routine? Among us, there is no problem, but nobody out there knows Youko.
-Then you'll help me, Yomi, using your persuasion. In fact, I'm going to need your help, especially with Minamino's mother, which will certainly be the hardest.
-There's no problem with me. I have debts with you, and I will do whatever is necessary.
-Thank Yomi. Well, I must now take up the work here as Minamino, just as Mr. Enma ordered. I feel that some thorns have already been projected a few millimeters from the necklace.
-Are they hurting you?
-No, they aren't that sharp yet, they're hexagon-shaped, and get sharper as they grow, as I have noticed.
-Right. I'm afraid of your safety, Kurama. And it seems to me that Enma Daioh is willing to be very hard on you.
-Well, I accepted this challenge. Now there is no way back. Kibitoshin, let me assume the workload here. Thank you for covering Minamino's duties while he was away.
-That's okay, Youko. Let me know when you need me to do anything.
-Sure, go out.
Youko goes to Kurama's desk, where there are some papers that he needs to send;
-How strange, these thorns grew up a bit, but what did I do wrong?- Youko thinks.
A while later, after reading the papers, Youko goes to Yomi to deliver a summary;
-Yomi, there is a free trade agreement proposed by Hong Kong...
-Hong Kong? Are you sure, Kurama? We already have one with them a long time ago.
-Yes, it's written here!- Yoko seems impatient.
-All right, calm down, it must be a duplicate.
-But what are they thinking? How do they send the same thing twice to us?
-I do not know, mistakes happen. Just say that we already have one and that we will keep it.
-Okay, this bunch of incompetents ...
Yomi suspects the tone in which Youko speaks;
-That's not the usual way for Kurama, he's very harsh. Is it the stress of the test?
Kurama goes to the table and throws the contract on the paper shredder. He feels something tingling in his neck, and the ruby blinks once;
-Has this happened again?
He looks in a mirror, and sees that the thorns have advanced a little, but are not causing any discomfort;
-But what did I do wrong again? Ah nevermind.
The rest of the day was calmer for Youko, who did not have to go anywhere;
-Still, I miss Shuichi. I cannot contact him at all, and it looks like he's too far away...- Youko thinks.
A little later, he goes to Yomi, who is having a cup of tea;
-Yomi, I need you to go along with me home. Let's invite Kibitoshin, Tsukiyomi, and Hoshiyomi as well since my mother is a little afraid of you.
-No worries, Kurama. I am at your will.
-I'll talk to them on the communicator.
-Okay, I'm ready.
Kurama calls everyone to Yomi's room. They arrive. Tsukiyomi brought a flower arrangement with her;
-Then that's it. Let's all visit my mom's house today to- He laughs- convince her that I am really Kurama.
-It does not seem to be that complicated, Kurama. She would not doubt us.
-Oh, Hoshiyomi, her name is Shiori, please remember that.
-Right.
-Well, let's go there by car. I do not think it will be a good experience for Kurama to use the subway today. -Yomi walks into the hallway.
-Yes, you're right!
-It's decided.
-Well, it's barely the first day, and I have a lot to do.
