The Path to Darkness
Chapter 1- Demons Released and The Dragon Pyramid
A month after the Spheres of Ju-Ti mission, the Spirit Detectives are on vacation again. Kurama and Hiei go to Demon World. Yusuke and Kuwabara stay to go on a double date with Keiko and Yukina. Both boys didn't like the idea of double dating albeit both boys promised they behave on the date. Meanwhile on Maltock's Island, The Master, Jitou and Kyu are watching the Spirit Detectives. The Master suddenly feels the energies of the statues. The statues glow with dark light with the 4 Spheres of Ju-Ti disappears into the statues. As the three demons watch with awe, the statues stop glow and four dark shadows appear.
Each of them is glowing with the color of their sphere. Each shadow show its self, revealing yellow glowing eyes. The first one is Radul, who looks like a male silver phoenix demon with a white beak with silver feathers on the head with black tips going back like a backward Mohawk. The next one is Sudi who is a female gray fox with four long tails and a black nose, Xti looks like a light gray male coyote/jackal mix with a white muzzle with long ears, and Anguol is medium gray lizard with a white underbelly including his mouth with a long slick tail that is split into two. Each of them is wearing a mix of Egyptian and Japanese Royal clothing.
"Masters, you have awakened." The Master says bowing down with Kyu and Jitou doing the same.
"All we need is the one item to take over the three worlds once again." Sudi tells the Master, Kyu and Jitou malevolent tone.
"What is it Masters?" Kyu asks the masters.
"The Dragon Pyramid." Radul answers. "Who has it?"
"It is in Spirit World under lock and key." The Master tells the four demons seriously.
"We have taken over Spirit World once, we'll take it over again there is no one powerful enough to stop us." Anguol tells the three minions darkly.
"Masters, there are four people who are powerful enough to stop you." Jitou tells them causing the four masters eyes to glow.
"Who are these beings that are no threat to us?" Xti asks menacingly. "There are no humans, demons and Spirit World warriors strong enough to threaten us."
"They are the Spirit Detectives, masters, they consist of two full blooded demons, a half demon and a psychic human."
"A half demon? A psychic human? Well, Well, never heard of those kinds of beings." Radul says darkly. "What are the names of these four beings?"
"The two demons are Hiei the swordsman, Shuichi Minamino A.K.A Yoko Kurama, the psychic human is Kazuma Kuwabara and the half demon is Yusuke Urameshi." The Master tells pointing his globe at each one of the spirit detectives.
"Where will find these beings?"
"Right now, Yoko Kurama and Hiei are in Demon World. Yusuke Urameshi and Kazuma Kuwabara are in Human World."
"They make it easy to separate them. They will feel the wrath of the Dark Ones." Anguol tells the Master, Kyu and Jitou as he shows them an item. "With this their powers will succumb to us."
Anguol, Xti, Sudi and Radul open up a globe and each one gets piece of jewel that glows in different colors. Anguol's green, Xti's purple, Sudi's orange and Radul 's yellow. They tell the Master to get another one his minions to steal the Dragon Pyramid while they handle the spirit detectives. The Master bows and does as he is told. The four demons disappear to find each spirit detective separately. Meanwhile Yusuke and Kuwabara are at the arcade relieved that are done with double dating. They are playing a new videogame called Strikers: Legacy a two-player game that Yusuke is losing at.
"Damn! Why the hell does this game freak out when you press the wrong buttons." Yusuke asks annoyed.
"Because you're pressing the wrong ones, Urameshi." Kuwabara answers as he pushing buttons as well.
"How the hell am I pushing the wrong buttons, Kuwabara?"
"Because you just died."
"Damn it!"
Yusuke and Kuwabara are still playing videogames when Botan sneaks up behind them. She says hi and both boys freak out and they lose at the game they are on. They turn around and glare at Botan. Yusuke grumbles annoyed at losing the game. Kuwabara and Botan shrug knowing Yusuke is annoyed.
"What's wrong with the baby, now?" Yusuke asks annoyed to Botan.
"Well, he has a mission for you and the others." Botan answers annoyed at Yusuke.
"What is it, Botan?" Kuwabara asks seriously.
"A raccoon/lizard demon named Glatic has escaped from Spirit World and he is on the loose. Koenma wants you to capture him before something happens.
"Where is he now?" Yusuke asks seriously.
"Near Tokyo. Kurama and Hiei will meet you both there." Botan tells both boys.
"Ok, Botan, let's go, Kuwabara."
Kuwabara nods as he and Yusuke run to their next mission. Unknown to them Glatic is has moved from Tokyo to Maltock's Island with the Master. The Master comes in and appears in front of Glatic.
"Glatic, my friend." The Master greets seriously. "How have you been?"
"What do you want, Xix." Glatic asks seriously knowing the identity of the Master.
"I want you to go to Spirit World and grab the an item there that is unguarded: The Dragon Pyramid."
"The Dragon Pyramid? Let me guess, the Masters have returned…"
"Yes, and they want their Dragon Pyramid back."
"Then you release the right demon, Xix. The Dragon Pyramid will be the masters' once again." Glatic says with an evil smirk.
"Excellent…." Xix says sinisterly…
