Yu-Yu Hakusho
Knockin' on Hell's Door
Written by: Spike
14-year-old Yusuke Urameshi, the Spirit Detective for Spirit World, is about to experience a brand new adventure that will test his trust in his friends, family... and his own will to fight.
-------------------Chapter 1: Locks and Keys-------------------
"Yusuke, wait up!! YUSUKE!! YUSUKE, YOU BIG JERK!!"
Keiko Ukimura was chasing Yusuke down the streets of their hometown. They'd just seen a romantic movie, and they were going for the kiss when Yusuke got a strange feeling and started running.
"YUUUUUSUUUUKKEEEE!!!!"
(SMACK!!)
Keiko finally caught up to Yusuke and gave him a piece of her mind. The following pain put Yusuke's jaw in serious agony. It took a full five minutes to recover from the shock.
"Hey! What'd you do that for? It's like I wanted to run from you, I just got this strange urge to run!"
"Yeah, right, Yusuke you liar! Tell me the truth!"
*sigh* "Alright. I just realized I needed to talk to Botan tonight, and I completely forgot when we went out. It just slipped out of my mind. I'm sorry! Now, can I go?"
"Alright."
Releasing Yusuke from her grip, Keiko sighed and started to walk home.
::Yusuke's been acting very strangely lately. I wonder what's wrong?::
Back at home, Yusuke (panting and sweating like an overgrown pig) met Botan in his room.
"Dammit, Yusuke! You're late!"
(BAM!!)
Take a guess at which hurts more: hands or oars?
"OUCH!! YOU KNOW, I JUST GOT THE SAME THING FROM KEIKO, WHY DO I NEED TO TAKE
IT FROM YOU, TOO??!?"
"Well, this is kind of important! Yesterday, while you were at school, this creaky old door suddenly appeared in your closet. Obviously, I got worried, so I asked Koenma what he thought was up."
!Koenma, sir, this mysterious old door suddenly appeared in Yusuke's closet. Do you have any idea what's going on, sir?
No, Botan, I don't. But I can feel it emitting great amounts of Spirit Energy. I'm assigning you to watch over that door every waking moment. Don't let Yusuke know you're watching it, and report to me every morning. You're excused, Botan.!
"Well, when I got back from reporting to Koenma this morning, someone (or rather, something) was pounding on the door from the inside. I don't know how to open it, either. Do you?"
"Well, gee, Botan, I'm only just hearing about this door NOW! How the hell would I know how to open it? Besides, even if I did, I probably wouldn't think of it until I got home from the hospital, which is where you'll send me if you people don't stop hitting me!"
"Stop jabbering or I'll hit you again! Now listen up. There's an old lock on this door, right at the very bottom. See it?"
Botan indicated the small, rusty lock at the bottom of the door. Squinting, Yusuke could just make it out.
"Yeah, I see it. So what do you want me to do, search my house for every key we have and try to open the door?"
"Well, yeah, if it's not too much trouble."
"Grrr, Botan! Do you have any idea how many keys there are in this house? My mom's key ring alone has about 15, and then there's storage and the old shed out by the warehouses..."
(THWAM!!)
"GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND FIND THE KEY!!"
::Dammit! Why do people keep on smacking me around?! What did I do to deserve this??:::
Together, Yusuke and Botan searched out every corner of Yusuke's home, grabbing every key in sight. When they were through, they each tried all the keys on the small lock, but all of them were way too big to even fit.
"Dammit!! This key doesn't work either!"
"Well, that's the last of them. I guess, for now, we'll just have to leave the door be and see if anything will come out from the inside."
::And I've got a strong, sticking suspicion what might be behind this door.::
-A mysterious door has appeared in Yusuke's closet. Both him and Botan have tried to unlock it, to no avail. For now, Botan's advice seems to be the best, but is it really the right course of action?-
New commands to watch for in my fics:
