Chapter I
Yusuke and Kuwabara wondered through the forests of the Makai. Koenma had sent them to search for a demon that was reported to either be trying to find or make a doorway to the human realm. Both walked in thought, which was hard for both of them. What Kuwabara was thinking about, Yusuke didn't know nor did he care. Though it was unusual for them to be sent to take care of a demon before it left the Makai. It was even more unusual to hear about it beforehand.
"I don't like it Urameshi." Kuwabara spoke up suddenly.
Yusuke turned his ear to look at his friend and show him he had his attention.
"I know what you mean Kuwabara. This demon must be strong and pose a real threat for us to be sent to take care of it now. Before it even does anything."
"I'm not talking about our mission. I'm talking about Kurama and Hiei going back into the past. I mean InuYasha said something about dealing with a dragon. We don't know anything about those kinds of lizards. And I'm worried about the rest of our team."
Right then, an image of Hiei using his dragon attack popped in to his mind. Don't have any clue how strong dragons were. Right. Yusuke couldn't help but smile at that thought.
"Oh, I think we have some idea. I really don't think we need to worry about Kurama and Hiei. They can take care of themselves. Unlike some people I know. Now, let's hurry up and find this demon so we can stop it and go home."
Yusuke picked up his pace and walked past Kuwabara, who had a somewhat clueless look on his face. Still putting together what Yusuke had told him.
"Hey, wait a minute, did you just say I can't take care of myself?!"
Yusuke only laughed.
