Yuniko used her energy to create an ora. Kairu kept his ora up and swam a few feet from Yuniko to match off their power. "It seems are power is evenly match!" Kairu said. "No it's not!!!" Yunikos power burst, sending Kairu to fly back a bit. Suddenly, a gient humpback whale came up behind Kairu from the reef. He turned, screemed, and it closed it's mouth on him. Yuniko's ora dissapeard and she panted and smiled. Then relized, her job wasn't done. She turned, Kurama was closest to her so she kissed Hiei, Yusuke, and Kuwabara first. Luckly, her power worked again and they hadn't died. Then she freed Rena, and the four went to the top. Then Yuniko swam to the nearly unconciouse Kurama who was almost to the ocean floor. She swam fast and put her arms out, but Kurama slowly closed his eyes. She reached him, put her arms around him, closed her eyes, and kissed him. After a moment, she moved away. A few moments passed and Yuniko thought she failed to save him in time, but her opened his eyes and took a beep breath. He looked at her, "Yuniko?....." she moved up to him, "Are you alright, Kurama?"

Yuniko felt herself blushing. Suddenly, their faces drew together, and their lips met. Lots and lots of bubbles rose up fast from the ocean floor from an underground spring. After a moment, they seperated and Kurama embraced her.

They swam to the surface to meet the others. Just before Yuniko reached the surface, she turned back into her human for. They finally surfaced and swam to the end. The others help them up. "You two alright? You were down there for a while." Yusuke said. "Don't worry Yusuke, we're fine." Yuniko smiled, ringing out her clothes. "Then let's get out of here......" Kuwabara said. THey nodded and left, as they got out, the place collapsed. They turned and looked for a few minets, but then left, smiling.


A few weeks passed, and the girls had decided what they would do next. "So.....your goind back to Atalantice." Yusuke said, sitting on the couch. "Yup, we hope to find any possible Atalantice sevivors who didn't wish to leave. Witch would be likely seeing how everyone loved Atalntic so much. I'd bet even after the war servivors would have stayed." Rena answered. "Then if we gather enough people, we're going to make another Atalance, hopefully a safer one, and harder to find." Yuniko finished, Kurama looked very somber. They talked with the team for the rest of the night, went to bed, and in the morning packed untill about noon.

Yuniko and Rena packed in a seperate room, Yuniko looked very sad as Rena's eyes shifted over to her, "You know.....Yuniko.............I've been thinking...." "About what, sis?" Yuniko asked, and stopped for a moment. "If I can find some servivors there, I'm sure they can help me in finding any other servivors, decendants, and more. So.........I think only one of us needs to go." Rena answered. "What are you saying?" Yuniko asked. Rena rolled her eyes and head back with a smiled and turned to her, out her hands on Yuniko's shoulders and said, "Don't you get it? I'm saying you stay here. You stay and be happy with Kurama. I can handle Atalantice on my own." "Are you serious!?" Yuniko sounded shocked. "Dead serious." Rena smiled. "But Rena, getting Atalantice backtogether will be such a chore. You'll need help!" Yuniko agrued. "And I'll have it when I find someone. I know there are more serivors then just me and you. If they didn't die in the war then they servived. I mean after all we can breath underwater. You stay here." Rena said, and Yuniko blinked. Rena turned to fished packing. Then Yuniko made a high pitch squeel and hugged her sister in joy, "Thank you thank you thank you sister!"


Kurama watched from the cliff as the ship left. He looked sad, watching the depart of his two newest friends. "Kuraaaaama." He heard from behind and turned. He looked shocked and happy to see Yuniko. She had the biggest smile on. "Yuniko, I thought-" "I can stay! Kurama I can stay. Rena sid she'd take care of Atalantice." Yuniko said, very happy. Then she ran up to him and threw her arms around his neck, and he wraped his around her waist, still confused. "But I thought-" "Rena said she would be able to handle it, and she ddin't give me much of a choice." Yuniko inturutped, pulling away from him.

"So, was that kiss yesterday another ability of yours?" Kurama asked. "Hmmmm.....I dunno. Why don't we find out." Yuniko said and they drew together for a kiss. Even thought they could see or hear it, Rena had been watching. She was cheering and jumping in the air. Yuniko brock away and waved to her sister, "Buh-byyyyye!" "Goodbye!" Kurama waved, too. The two stood waving, hand and hand and together in love at last.

         

The End!
