This started as a little one shot about Youko's death, and had nothing to do with my other stories, just an idea that popped into my head while listening to Die another day theme song. But it has become another story in my little Yu Yu series.

Sienna, a fire demon, held a special key, one that would open a portal into the human realm. A very valuable key a certain silver kitsune couldn't resist stealing. He had stalked his prey carefully, but Sienna was no fool, she kept the key with her at all times on a silver chain around her neck. But the key was also wanted by King Enma. It was a dangerous magical artifact to leave in the hands of a demon.
Sienna stepped outside her little house in the woods. She had camouflage capris and a white top on, and was ready for a war over the key. Rumors of Youko the bandit and a spirit bounty hunter wanting to take the key from her had reached her ears. It was time to show them who was the owner of the key. Youko had watched her appear, then he saw the spirit bounty hunter attack her. She was hit in the left arm by an arrow, which still protruded. Eyes and hair seemed to be on fire as she went after the bounty hunter. During the fight, the silver chain broke and the key fell to the ground.
Youko saw this as his chance, and took the key and ran. The bounty hunter saw the demon fox take the key. He threw Sienna into the tree and went after the kitsune. Sienna healed the worst of her wounds and pursued after them. No one stole her key. Youko saw the bounty's hunter arrow too late. It pierced him and he fell. Sienna saw her chance and sunk her hand into the bounty hunter's chest and ripped out his heart.
She threw the heart away as the bounty hunter collapsed to the ground. Sienna picked up the key Youko dropped. and stared down at the kitsune.
"Your dying," Sienna smirked. "That is what happens to all who try to steal my key.
"I'll die another day," Youko laughed. "I'll be back for that key, too."
15 years later.
A red hair boy walked through a forest he had only been in during another life. He remembered where Sienna's house was, but it was nothing more then blacken ash. Sienna was no where to be seen, and neither was her scent. The ashes had been there for years it seemed.
"So you have escaped me Sienna," the boy laughed. He noticed a carving in a tree, and read it aloud. "Jokes on you kitsune! I've burned myself and the key. Now no one can have it but me."
