Chapter 1
"I still can't believe that fucking pacifier breath actually woke us up in this fucking hour."
"Yusuke please don't start," Kurama's green eyes were slightly bloodshot as they stayed on the clear road, his voice nothing but a sleepy slur. "It's far too early for your tantrums."
Chocolate brown eyes slid open from the passenger's side to half glare at the old spirit. "I'm just sayin that if he expects us to be able to work properly at this Kami forsaken time he's got another thing comin."
A slur drifted through the car's interior from the back seats as Kurama made the blue neon make a left turn. "Aw shut up Urameshi, you should be used to being woken up at four thirty in the morning, me and Kurama are."
The former spirit detective growled as he turned his head around slowly to glare menacingly at the figure stretched across the seats. "Like you're one to talk Kuwabara. You're the one who is lying down and looking as if they're falling asleep around here!"
Blue eyes set deep in the large square face and hidden underneath the shadow of his orange and strangely gelled hair, Kazuma growled right back. "Shut it Urameshi! You could catch some more shut eye if you really wanted!"
"Yeah? Guess what you moron that would be extremely cruel to Kurama seeing as how he's the one driving!"
"We can switch off!"
"When?! Oh I know, at some random place in the middle of the road?!"
"SHUT UP!"
As the arguing commenced emerald colored eyes slowly narrowed, a top lip curling and blood red hair bristling as the fox pressed a little harder on the gas, noting that no one else but them would be on this road at this time of day.
"YOU SHOULD LEARN TO BE MORE CONSIDERATE KUWABAKA! ALL YOU'RE DOIN IS FREELOADING ON KURAMA'S CAR!"
"IF I'M FREELOADING SO ARE YOU! YOU CAN RUN TO THE TEMPLE JUST AS FAST AS THE CAR COULD GET US THERE SO WHY DON'T YOU JUST GET OUT AND START SPRINTING?!"
"Kuwabara…Yusuke…"
"LIKE HELL I'M GONNA RUN AT THIS HOUR! YOU GET OUT AND RUN!"
"NO!"
Eyes clenching shut and fists tightening around the rubber steering wheel Kurama finally had enough.
"How about this? Why don't both of you shut your mouths?!"
The bickering pair blinked and looked on shocked at the angry demon, neither of them ever hearing the stoic man raise his voice.
Silence coveted the neon's inside as the two children realized that youkos' are apparently very violent when they didn't get enough sleep and neither of them had the energy or desire to deal with a temper mental fox demon. A mere half hour before hand at the crack of four a.m. each of their communicators had gone off with Koenma giving each specific orders to get their hides over to Genkai's. The sky was still a shade of grey, a slight breeze ruffling the expanding forestry and shrubbery on either sides of the road.
Brown eyes shifted as the brunette mumbled with his right temple resting against the glass of the window. "I'm not even a spirit detective anymore, pacifier breath has no right ordering me around like his fucking slave – ".
"YUSUKE!"
"SORRY KURAMA! I'LL SHUT UP."
The trio breezed into the room with everything but grace half an hour later. Stumbling forward the three barely even noticed the firelight from the candles brightening up the large room. Master Genkai was sitting cross legged, her eyes boring holes into each of their heads. Her pink hair was settling just beneath her shoulders, a dark blue kimono adorning her small frame.
Beside her sat Lord Koenma, the bastard who had caused the groups aggravated and tired moods. He was standing with his arms placed protectively over his chest, pacifier placed firmly between his lips. The red cape covered both the teenager's front and back, ending at the waist to show blue pants with white seams.
"Thank you all for coming, as I'm sure you know I have another mission for you."
Growling the three sat on the floor and Yusuke snarled. "Oh really? In case you forgot baby I'm not a spirit detective anymore and neither are these guys."
Rolling his eyes Jr. sighed before getting down to the point. "Yes I'm aware of that Yusuke but this is dire and currently I have no one else. I know that you all haven't been on a mission for three years but I need your help." The infant lord looked up to the ceiling for a moment and allowed Genkai to take over.
"As we speak Botan is in Makai trying to find and gather Hiei so you all can work properly on the mission." Kurama perked up at this, his back straightening as a smile bled onto his lips, just as Koenma said it's been three years since a mission has been taken on and it has been just as long since he had last seen the fire demon. Genkai smirked at the fox's reaction before continuing, "The demons' Koenma wants you to eradicate are apparently very strong, stuck in the middle between A class and S class. We're not sure how many there are but apparently they mean harm."
The withered old lady looked to the side wall where a door was placed before looking back to them. "Unfortunately the demons seem to be gyrating around this temple, I can't deal with them all what with my age and all – SHUT YOUR MOUTH YUSUKE! – ," the man quickly curbed his guffaws as his old trainer glared at him. "I don't want Yukina getting harmed through all of this so I want her to stay with your sister Kuwabara."
The psychic's attention was grabbed just like Kurama's was with the mention of his precious ice apparition being harmed. "That's fine, I'm sure Shizuru wouldn't mind all that much."
"Good because you lot will be staying here with me unfortunately."
"…" - Kurama
"Eh?" - Kuwabara
"WHAT THE HELL?! I DON'T WANT TO STAY HERE!"
"YUSUKE SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!" – Genkai and Jr.
The woman hissed in irritation as she stood to her full height which was only a little taller than three feet. "I don't want you dimwits here either brat! The only one of you I can stand for a long period of time is Kurama and even he gets aggravating after a while."
"Damn it Hiei! Will you get out of the stupid tree and come inside already?!"
The group inside the temple looked towards the doorway not even noticing that Yukina had walked into the room, her crimson eyes wide with shock from the enraged grim reaper's voice. Silence was the only thing that accompanied her.
Koenma blinked before a strange dawning frowned on him. "Oh, I forgot to mention that Hiei hit puberty a few months ago, although I'm not sure what his demon form is…"
The three turned back to the infant lord and smiled at Yukina as she sat next to Genkai. Yusuke ground out with a sweat drop forming on his head, "What does that have to do with anything?"
Kurama was the one who answered him and a strangely interested look plastered on his features and suddenly everyone wasn't really all that tired. "You see Yusuke when demons' hit puberty their true blood starts to show and the actually species displays itself. After the initial transformation they are stuck in that form for about a year."
Confusion from the two men was all he received before the mazaku spoke up.
"But Hiei's a hybrid isn't he? So what, will he be like half and half of something?"
Giggling the group looked at the girl who was still oblivious that her brother has been under her nose the entire time. "Yes he is a hybrid, a hybrid of what I'm not sure but primarily he's a fire apparition so he'll be whatever species of fire demon he actually is."
Nodding they turned back towards the door when Botan's furious shouting commenced. "Fine! I'll just go get the boys to get you out!"
The ferry girl stomped into the room, her blue hair bristling from its place in the pony tail as her purple eyes shot out flames, bits of her pink kimono blackened with soot. Nostrils flared she turned towards her boss who shrank under her intimidating stare.
Trying to subdue her rage the lord gulped and stuttered out, "Now Botan, Hiei's always been stubborn you should know that."
"YES I KNOW THAT! BUT HIS SPECIES IS MAKING HIM ALL THE MORE STUBBERN!"
The team mates stood up and Kuwabara asked warily, "Okay so what is the runt?"
The psychic cowered under her towering form behind Yusuke as she turned on him.
"WHAT SPECIES IS HE YOU ASK? HE'S A FUCKING CAT THAT'S WHAT!"
It got very quiet after the woman's statement as each of their eyes widened. A cat? Hiei is a cat?
Kuwabara suddenly grinned and ran out through the door like the idiot cat lover he is shouting out, "Here kitty, kitty, come out and play Hiei!"
The anger diminished from the grim reaper as her face paled before running out after him. "Kuwabara! Cat or not that's still Hiei! He's going to kill you!"
Glancing at each other the rest of the combatant's exited the room in a more graceful way. Each of them thinking that the fire demon wasn't the kind of neko Kuwabara was thinking of.
The group of five looked around but they couldn't see a trace of the other three but suddenly a shrill yell from the biggest member of their group came from the forest followed by a shouting of "Hiei no! Let him go!" and loud yowling. They didn't even have to glance at each other to run towards their voices.
What they saw was something they did and didn't expect. Thanks to the now rising sun they were able to see the scene perfectly. Kuwabara was hiding behind Botan (for he knew Hiei wouldn't attack her to get to him) a large bleeding gash coming from his right leg. Yukina immediately rushed forward towards him and started to heal the wound.
The ferry girl's neck and face was glistening with sweat as she held her hands up in a defensive, submissive manner, her body slightly trembling.
And last but not least was Hiei.
The group gasped as they inspected the large form. His body was about the size of a young adolescent lion, his fur a deep black. The toes of his front paws were spread out, letting the inch long white claws scratch the dirt covered ground. His ears were pressed back, the fluffy fur covering them a brilliant snow white, his back arched, the dark fur bristling. Two tails stood up straight behind him, the fluffy black extensions going on for about four feet each before coming up to white tips. A large white diamond was shining on his forehead, the blood red color of his eyes enveloping even where the white was supposed to be, leaving nothing but large black slits for pupils. He was snarling, his hackles raised to show large, sharp pearl white teeth in the front and the incisors on his top jaw had to be about a foot long and at least a few inches thick.
Smoke issued up from the large paws as well as his wet black nose.
Kitty Hiei wasn't very happy at all.
