Hey back with yet another story! Ok I have no reviews for anything yu yu Hakusho since this is my first fic of it.

Genkai: Aa Miwsher does not own any of the dimwits seen in this story nor does she own me. But she does own Tamra. That was a person of her creation.

ME: thanks Genkai! This is why you are my favorite character! Anyway on with my yu yu fic!

Genkai's New Apprentice

Chapter 1 New Dimwit

Yusuke took his shoes off before entering the house. "GENKAI?" he called "You here?"

Worries he looked through every room and found only a cat. 'Hmmm' he thought 'Since when has Grandma had a cat?'

He walked outside again and found Genkai instructing someone. "CONCENTRATE!" Genkai bellowed.

"I'm trying!" the boy yelled back.

"TRY HARDER!"

"Hey, grandma" Yusuke said in a cocky voice.

The boy jumped and looked over his shoulder. "Dimwit." Genkai muttered.

"Who's this?" Yusuke asked coming up beside the boy and ruffling his hair.

"My new dimwit." Genkai answered dryly.

The little boy gave Yusuke a challenging look. "My name is Tamra!"

Yusuke laughed and ruffled his hair again. "Well, you're a strong little boy. I can tell just by looking at you."

The boy stamped his foot. "I'm a GIRL! AND I AM NOT LITTLE!" Tamra yelled in his face.

Yusuke lost his balance and fell flat on his back. Genkai gave a smirk and walked past him. "Get inside dimwit. Tamra help him up."

Tamra helped Yusuke up and Yusuke followed Genkai inside. As Tamra made to follow Yusuke, Genkai said. "Tamra, you still have not finished."

"AWWW!" Tamra whined.

"Whining won't get it done!" Genkai snapped. "And if you keep whining, I'll make you do dishes!"

Tamra stood up straight and bowed. "Yes Genkai!" she said quickly and ran to the middle of the yard where she closed her eyes and made a fist as if holding something skinny.

They sat right inside the door where Genkai could keep an eye on tamra.

Tamra had black curly hair that was shorter than Yusukes and yellow eyes like a cats.

"So," Yusuke asked "Is she human?"

"Yes. I don't know where the yellow eyes came from, but she certainly is an unusual child. Perhaps she had an ancestor too far back to remember that was an apparition. None of that matters right now though. What I want to know is why you are here."

"Come on. Can't I spend some time with my favorite hag?"

Genkai gave him a stern look and Yusuke sighed.

"Ok, ok, I just came to train, alright. Someone's kidnapped Keiko again and they want us to enter the Dark Tournament. If we don't, Keiko's toast. If we lose, Keiko's toast. Hopefully if we win Keiko won't be toast."

"Do you know who kidnapped her?" Genkai inquired.

"No that's the problem. They're smarter than most apparitions we encounter. They made sure not to leave any trace of who they are or where they took Keiko."

Genkai nodded and Yusuke went on. "Hiei, Kurama, and I were wondering if you would be the fifth person again. Kuwabara can't come, he's been really sick lately. Jin has volunteered to go in Kuwabara's place." He grinned. "Of course we didn't tell about the tournament. He would have leapt out of bed, sick or not, just to go with us."

Genkai looked concerned. "Is it serious?"

"No" Yusuke said shaking his head. "Not life threatening, but he's going to be out of action for a while. Anyway so how about that answer. Were you trying to change the subject or something?"

"Yusuke," Genkai said sadly, "I'm old. I may be a good fighter, but I'll only hold up for the first few rounds. I had to borrow energy from that joker, Shishiwakamaru at the last tournament in order to defeat him. I can't."

"Can't you come at least to fill the fifth place? You don't have to fight." Yusuke pleaded.

Genkai shook her head just as Tamra ran into the room yelling "Genkai, I did it!"

In Tamra's hand was what looked like - "An arrow?" he questioned.

"YOU NIMROD!" Genkai raged. "You need a bow to use that arrow!"

Tamra took her hand from behind her back and revealed a spirit bow. The edge of Genkai's mouth twitched. Tamra probably hadn't been with Genkai long enough to know that she was trying not to smile and she was actually very pleased. "Very well" Genkai said. "Go upstairs and feed Dizzy."

Yusuke gave her a confused look.

"Her cat" Genkai answered his unasked question.

Yusuke nodded. "So do you know anyone who we could use?"

Genkai smiled a sly smile. "The person I'm thinking of will show up. Is it at the same place as last time?"

Yusuke nodded.

"Very well. Your fifth fighter will be there."

Yusuke grinned wide. "Thanks Grandma"

--------

Chapter 1 is finished. I had trouble with the characterization. I haven't watched yu yu in awhile. Chapter 2 will be New Tournament

PREVIEW!

The fighter brandished two knives from the sleeves of her shirt. She grabbed them by the blades and threw them. One jabbed a demon in the eye, the other in one's back. Yusuke turned to see who had stuck the in the eye of the demon he had been punching and found no one. Suddenly a burst of energy shot up in the clearing and a figure, masked, strode in.

"Who is she?" Kurama muttered to himself.
