I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Star Trek, if I did, I would have a better car then one that breaks down all the time. Don't sue me. I finally saw Nemesis yesterday and got this idea, cause how dare they kill Data off. So here we go. Please let me know if you like this story.

The four old friends sat around the table, grim looks on their faces. The youngest of the four sighed and rubbed his temples. "I had thought we had gotten rid of him years ago."

The rest nodded and looked to the young looking man with the pacifier in his mouth. "We thought we had, however, he just returned to outerspace. Now with all the technological advancements, he has found other societies that agree with his ideas on life." He gestured to a view screen and a picture of a bald man shows up on the screen.

"This is one of the humans that is needed to work with us to save the human realm from him. His name is Picard. His file showed up on my desk and it is unknown if his death is immenent or not. The file mentions the Soulless One might save his life. I need the three of you to send someone to rescue Picard or the Soulless One at the right moment in time. The action they are about to perform should be completed, and the one who is rescued should not be taken to the makai until the action is performed. Here is the file that I received, or at least the relevent information that I am allowed to share with you."

The file was passed around to the other three, all read it calmly and then looked at each other in a three way silent conversation. The youngest spoke again "Well, then we should send the one person who is loyal to us all." The redhead on his right gasped while the black haired one next to him growled, however neither disagreed with the one speaking. The pacifier sucking youth nodded thoughtfully "Well, that is the best option. She is the only one that is loyal to you all, she is also strong enough and skillfull enough to complete this task. Fine, send her. Keep me informed." With that he disappeared from the gathering place.

The three remaining friends stood and the redhead sighed. "She should be sent as soon as possible. We don't have time to waste, the moment is fast arriving." The youngest looked to his friend. "Don't worry Kurama, Mindara is well trained for this, we have all seen to it." Kurama nodded, his red hair falling into his face slightly. "Can't blame me for worrying for my child, Yusuke."

With that he turned and gave a small smile to the shortest of the three. "I will see you later at the border palace, Hiei?"

Hiei nodded to Kurama and watched the fox leave. He turned to look at Yusuke "Detective, tell her to be careful. Kurama's 'motherly' instincts are strong about Mindara." He used his old nickname for Yusuke, which spoke volumes in and of itself. He only called Yusuke "detective" when he was worried about his own, and Mindara and Kurama were the ones most important to him.

Yusuke nodded to his old friend. "Don't worry, I will warn her." Hiei nodded and left. Yusuke sighed and walked to a different door and into his study. He sat behind his desk and sent a communication out to his hier.

Mindara heard the beeping coming from her desk and sat up, still a bit asleep. She lept out of bed, vaulted over her desk and sat in her chair. The stars outside her window raced by, ones not visible from the Makai. She sighed and opened up the communications to see Yusuke's smiling face. "Hello Yusuke."

"Hi Min. I have a job for you." Mindara nodded and listened with rapt attention to the instructions. When Yusuke was finished she sighed to herself. "And so, after I rescue the Soulless One or this Picard, I am to return with him to the Makai and we are to wait for more instructions from Koenma?"

Yusuke nodded to his heir and smiled "Well, see you upon your return." He signed off.

Mindara stood and stretched. Red hair fell into her eyes, which were of the same color. She wore an outfit of green and black. A black pantsuit with a long green, sleeveless robe, that was opened in the front trimmed in black. She stood and went to the coordinates given to her by Yusuke and arrived with 10 minutes to spare. She pressed a few buttons on her view screen and the scene taking place in the human realm came into focus. She watched as the one called Picard attempted to kill a younger version of himself. She raised a brow. About ready to open the portal to the human realm to grab the one called Picard, as the countdown was down to 10 seconds, she watched startled as a gold skinned, golden eyed human approached the bald one.

She watched as he moved the now dead young Picard out of the way and put a small device on Picards tunic, Picard leaving in a flash of transporter sparkles. She nodded to herself and gathered her energy, closed her eyes and opened the portal. She opened her eyes to look at the back of the gold skinned one. She heard him say 'good bye' and watched him fire his phaser.

In the 100th of a second after his phaser went off, she wrapped her arms around his waist, using her demon speed, inherited from her father, and yanked him into her ship, allowing the portal to close right as the room the gold skinned one was standing in blew up.

The gold skinned one fell back a bit in surprise and whirled to see a short, red haired, red eyed human scrambling up from the floor, breathe coming in gasps. She totally ignored him and hit a few buttons and watched as the viewscreen showed the half destroyed bridge of the Enterprise.

Data noticed, with some satisfaction, the looks on Geordi and Deanna's faces when they turned to see Picard standing behind them. He turned his gaze from the screen to the young woman standing before it, smiling with pleasure. She turned to him and looked up at him. "Welcome aboard."

He blinked and a quick glance took in the small ship. "Where am I?" She settled at the controls, pushed a few buttons and he felt the soft shift as the ship slipped into warp drive. "You are aboard 'The Dimwit'. My name is Mindara Jaganasi-Yoko. What is your name?"

"I am Data. How did I get here?" Mindara smiled and gestured to a seat. "I rescued you. Your 'death' was assured and it was brought to my people's attention that your continued existance was needed for an upcoming encounter that is to happen to your Federation."

He looked out the view screen. "Where am I? This looks like no part of space I have seen." Mindara shook her head. "No, you are in the Makai. We are heading back to my homeworld. The Makai is a mirror image of your realm, well, in masses only. The same planets are here, but the peoples are much different here."

He nodded "And what planet in my 'realm' is your homeworld parallel to?" "Earth."

He didn't seem to surprised. "You seem human." She shook her head. "Well, not exactly. My mother had a human form at one point, and while he still uses it, Mother is now fully demon again." She caught Data's quizzical look. "Let me explain, we have time till we return to my home. My father is called The Forbidden One. His name is Hiei. He is part fire demon, part ice apparition. My 'mother' is in fact a man. His name is Yoko Kurama, or Kurama to everyone else. He and Father had been in a relationship for about a hundred years when they fell into a river of fertility. That is how 'mother' got pregnant with me. That is the nature of the Makai, things change for no reason. This river had previously been a normal, fresh water source of water, and in truth it changed back into a normal river about four months after it changed. But the damage was done and I was born.

My parents, at the time, were the heir's of two demon lords on Makai. Father was heir to Mukuro and Mother to Yomi. The third demonlord is named Yusuke. He is part human, part demon. In time, Mukuro and Yomi died and my parents are now demonlords, along with Yusuke. My parents have been friends with Yusuke since he was 14 years old.

When I turned 200 years old, Yusuke asked if I would accept a position as his heir. After much discussion amongst all involved, I agreed to be his heir. So, with the training my father and mother gave me in spirit powers, I have also gained some of Yusuke's spirit wave energy."

She finally really looked at Data and saw his quizzical look and sighed "I didn't explain that too well. Here" she reached over and pressed a set of buttons and pointed to a small panel where data flowed. Data leaned close and read the information, assimilating the information of the history of the Makai and their role with Spirit World, Lord Koenma and how they interact with the humanworld.

Two minutes after he started reading, he finished. Mindara seemed impressed. "What are you that you are soulless?" Data settled back in his chair. "I am an android." She nodded "Makes sense now."

"Excuse me, but when will I be able to return to the Enterprise?" Mindara blinked "I don't know. Yusuke didn't tell me that. He did imply that you would return though and if you hadn't been there to save the one called Picard, I was to save him instead of you." Data nodded and Mindara smiled "Do you need to eat?" Data shook his head and she nodded, getting herself something to eat. The rest of the trip was spent in quiet conversation, Data telling her about the type of people she worked with, her giving him a more indepth definition of spirit energy.

(Do I continue, or am I the only one interested in this storyline and tract my imagination is traveling? Let me know.)
