RKG: This is my first Yu Yu Hakusho fics. Or as Hioga's dad calls it 'The Yu Yu Hakusho Show.' Anyhow, this is a new one and I'm trying to keep a level of seriousness in it.

Chapter One: The New Assignment

It was just another summer day. The breeze blew slightly as five young kids walked through a park on a picnic.

One, being a tall redheaded idiot in his blue school uniform, was laughing at a punch line he had just figured out. His name is Kazuma Kuwabara. Called Kuwabara by most. Only Yukina, the younger looking girl with bluish- green hair in an icy blue kimono, called him Kazuma. Yukina was a gentle girl, pretty, well-mannered, smart. Kuwabara, the guy in love with her, was everything she wasn't.

Another couple there that day, though the way they acted, they were the only two unaware of the fact they were in love. A young brunette, female, who was very kind but don't let that fool you. She could whack you back into last Wednesday. Her name is Kayko. She was wearing a yellow sweater and a simple blue skirt and the person who was hit the most—one Yusuke Urameshi, the object of her affection. He was walking next to her in a green uniform.

Yusuke Urameshi was a bit . . . odd. He died once but now he's back. He saved a little kid from a car wreck that would have scraped his shoulder alone. Ah, well. What can you do? And so he died. But luckily he got saved. Or not so luckily. Now he was constantly called upon to save the Ningenkai or Earth. And today was no exception. But that comes later.

And last Suichi (A/N: Spellings constantly vary! I had to watch my DVD with subs to find the correct spelling.) Minamino. A young effeminate male walked alone stopping to admire almost all the shrubbery. Tall and lean with flowing red hair he was beautiful. Her was wearing a white button-up shirt and jeans. His story was even more complicated than Yusuke's.

But if you're reading this fic, no doubt you know all this. It just sounds good when I write it.

But there was something missing. Rather out of the group. Among the shadows there was a dark blur. The unwanted fire demon--Hiei. Now, among the friends, he was okay. But born of a father and being a male, he was not accepted among the Koorimes and, well, he was just chucked off the floating island. But his sister, Yukina, was accepted.

Not only was she accepted but now she was walking beside the infatuated redhead who Hiei couldn't stand. Oh, what a tangled web we, or rather, they weave.

Suichi, the incarnation of Youko Kurama and now called Kurama for simplicity's sake (or maybe the author is just lazy), noticed the little demon.

"Hiei? Why don't you just join us?" Kurama called to the shadow, currently standing in a tree.

"Hn. I'd rather die than hang out with you idiots."

"You don't mean that Hiei." Kurama called.

"Hello!" cried a chipper voice. A young girl in a pink kimono flying on an oar appeared. Her name was Botan; and she was the Grim Reaper. Only, she was more like a chipmunk than a Grim Reaper. (A/N: I really like Botan. She just reminds me of a chipmunk.)

"What are you doing here, Botan?" asked Yusuke. "We're busy."

"Urgent assignment." Botan announced. "Koenma wants you in the Reikai (A/N: That's the spirit world. Did I spell it right? Gomen if I didn't.) Now. All four of you."

"That's just great." Yusuke said, before beginning some curses.

"We have a new system of transportation designated specially for you." Botan said.

"Oh, joy." Yusuke replied.

"Hey, unless you wanna ride this oar all day . . ."

"That's really not necessary."

"ANYWAY," Botan said, considerably loud over the griping Yusuke, "we have a new specialist who works on developing new stuff for you guys."

"And I'm sure he did a great job. Let's go. The sooner we get going, the sooner we're done," Kurama said.

"Um," Botan started to say something, but changed her mind. "All right. Here they are! TA~DA!"

Botan handed each of the four detectives (the four males for those who don't know that) a miniature oar. Each had one blue button, one green button, and a red button.

"The green button transports you to the Ningenkai, so pressing it now would be stupid. The red one goes to Makai, which is just there for mission purposes. Don't touch it!" Botan was explaining but had to stop Kuwabara from touching the red button. "But press the blue one to get to Reikai!"

The four detectives pushed the button and were gone.

"C'mon, Yukina, let's eat." Kayko said. "They'll be fine."

"Shouldn't we wait?" Yukina asked.

"This mission might take awhile girls. Can I join you?" Botan asked.

So, the three settled down to a delicious meal.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The others were enduring a bumpy transportation and crushing unceremoniously on the ground in Koenma's office.

"Get off of me!" cried Yusuke.

"Who's on top?" asked Kurama.

"Your elbow is on my head." Hiei announced.

"Kurama! Let go of my leg!" Kuwabara.

"That would be Yusuke." Kurama replied.

Eventually, the four of them sorted themselves out.

"We'll have to talk to Link about that." Koenma said. "Anyway, all three worlds are in trouble! A major revolt is being planned by a bunch of female demons. See, they want rights granted to make them more powerful. They appealed to me but that's Makai junk so I pushed them down. Giving any demon more power is silly. And now they're planning to take over the Ningenkai, then the Reikai, and keeping seizing power till they control everything!"

"So give them the rights they want." Yusuke said.

"I can't find them. And the society only allows females in. However, we do have a spy who is doubling as a research scientist known as Link. One of you is going to join the society."

"But we're all guys!" replied Kuwabara.

"Link can help out there." Koenma explained. "She's putting the finishing touches on a potion which will reverse your gender. It also effects females and turns them into males. So the potion can't leave your hands. Unless it's carefully hidden. All traitors are put to death. That's how Link died."

"I prefer to think of myself as a hero." Replied a female now standing in the doorway.

Tall and lean, she was pretty. But boy, her clothes killed that look. She had loose denim overalls over a large white t-shirt covered in purple paint spots. She had on goggles; purple rimmed, and seemed to be wearing purple flip-flops. With her dark purple hair in two ponytails, which were, then in four braids each clipped in a new direction to her head. Her eyes were a bluish green. She bowed in Koenma's direction.

"This is Link." Said Koenma.

"Please excuse my appearance," Link replied. "I just came from my workshop. Hang on a sec."

She snapped her fingers and her appearance altered dramatically. Suddenly, she was in a fresh red tunic and black silk pants. Her hair was magically braided about her head with two inch-wide strips hung in front of her ears held in place by two golden circlets. Her goggles disappeared.

"Much better." She cried, taking out a small black notebook. "Day 18. The clothes Replacer works. Except for the shoes."

"Could we get back to business, Link?" Koenma asked the spacey scientist.

"Sorry. I'm still perfecting that. All right, who's the victim doomed the Society?"

"I'd prefer you decide that." Koenma said.

"Well, let's just see. Which one is most effeminate?" Link paused inspecting the boys. "Definitely not this one!"

Link had stopped in front of Kuwabara. She then moved to Yusuke. "Only the eyes. Koenma! I thought you'd give me a better selection. Next."

She paused for a minute in front of Hiei. "Your sister is very pretty. What happened with you?"

"How dare—"

"You! Perfect!" Link cried. She stopped in front of Kurama. "If you weren't flat, I'd think you were a girl!"

Kuwabara and Yusuke laughed. Even Hiei looked amused. For just a moment.

"Thank you for insulting my masculinity." Kurama replied.

"What's your name?" Link asked.

"Kurama." He replied.

"Kura sounds female." Link said. "Drink this."

Link handed him a tiny vial with a drop of purple potion. Not enough to kill if she had screwed it up. He drank it quickly. There was puff of smoke and Kurama disappeared for a moment.

"Wait for it . . . three . . . two. . . one." Link cried.

Kurama reappeared. Only . . . he was . . . that is she was different. She had lost a couple inches of height. Her shoulders were slightly narrowed and her fingers tapered at the ends. And her chest . . . wasn't flat anymore.

"I'm a . . . a . . ."

"You're a woman, Kurama. Or now it's Kura." Link snickered.

"I have . . ." Kurama stopped.

"A little larger than most yes." Link said, trying not to get hysterical.

"You three, don't look!" cried Kurama, suddenly aware of the fact the white shirt now left nothing to overactive hormonal imaginations.

"Maybe we should get you some proper clothing. Maybe a nice dress. At least something to hide your new . . . additions."

Three sets of laughter could be heard.

Suddenly, poof! Kurama was a man again.

"Exactly one and a half minutes! So that's how long it takes for ten milliliters to wear off!" Link exclaimed.

"You didn't know!" Kurama exclaimed.

"It's still in the experimental stage, Kura. I'll go get a bigger dose." Link said, disappearing.

"She's a bit . . . odd." Koenma announced.

Four eyes turned to him.

"That goes without saying." Hiei said.

"I'm not doing it!" Kurama said.

"Then, Ningenkai, and everything you love about it, is doomed."

"I hate you Koenma."

"Many people do." Koenma sighed.

TO BE CONTINUED . . .

RKG: I love Link! She's my newest creation. She's kinda weird. And very moody. I love her!

YKG: Kurama cooler!

RKG: Kurama is a girl! Bwahahahhaha!
