This is the result of being very bored and very tired very late at night.

I haven't worked on it much since, but it seemed to get a pretty good response. So I thought, why not? And here it is!

Here's chapter one. Tell me what you think, please.

Yusuke walked through the halls of Spirit World alone, trying to remember the way to Koenma's office. Botan had pointed him in this direction, but there had been a huge accident and she needed to go oversee the other ferrygirls.

Finally, he stopped walking. It was stupid to just keep walking; he was lost. "Why can't Koenma make his office easier to find?" the very irritated Detective yelled.

Then something flashing red caught his eye. It was a sign above a huge, wooden door. It proclaimed in huge letters: "Koenma's office".

"Oh," Yusuke muttered, feeling stupid. He walked into Koenma's office.

Koenma was playing solitaire on his computer instead of working. When he heard the door to his office begin to open, he freaked out and closed everything on the screen.

"What do want? Can't you see I'm busy?"

"It's me." Yusuke's head appeared in the doorway. He sounded... almost shy.

"Oh. Yusuke. What do you want?"

"I... wanted to ask you something."

"Go ahead."

"Remember when I died the second time, and you told the SDF you'd done a background check on me?"

"What about it?"

"That means you know who my father is, right?"

Koenma's pulse spiked. This could be bad. "And you want me to tell you." It was a statement, not a question.

"Yes."

The Spirit Prince took a deep breath. "Are you sure you want to know, Yusuke? Are you sure you aren't happier not knowing?"

"Would I be here is I didn't want to know?"

"You know him. Quite well."

There was silence.

"Do you still want to know?"

"Yes," he answered.

Koenma sighed. "Stay here. I'll go get him."

"He's dead?"

"No, he's still alive."

A few minutes after Koenma left, a ferrygirl came to his office. "Mr. Spirit Detective?" she asked shyly.

"Yeah?"

"Lord Koenma sent me to fetch you and show you to our family counseling room."

"Okay."

She led him down the hall. They took a few turns and then they finally came to a long, empty hallway with a single door at the end.

"These things don't always go well," she said, hoping that would explain why family counseling was out in the middle of nowhere.

Yusuke whistled. "Is it that bad?"

"He's probably just taking precautions. Lord Koenma does care about you... and you have a reputation for being violent." She opened the door. "They should be here shortly."

Yusuke nodded and walked into the empty room. Other than three chairs, it was completely empty. Two of the chairs sat facing the other. And the room was completely white.

Shouldn't a counselor's office be comforting? This was more like a room in an asylum.

He stood around, not quite sure what to stare at. He didn't want to sit down, because that would be stupid. Then he heard footsteps.

"I'll leave you two here alone for a bit. Your counselor should be down shortly."

The door opened and someone stepped inside. Koenma had been right. He did know this person quite well.

"Kurama?" Yusuke screamed. "You're my father?"
