Hey, peeps, I've seen this before and was thinking, 'Hey! How about I do that too!'

Anyway this will either be an exclusive to YuYu Hakusho, or we can cross it over with InuYasha.

This is going to be a fiction that you can add characters to it. You will have to help me along the way when I get stuck though, since they are your characters. You can make suggestions for your character in your reviews. One character and helper (if any) per person! Note, PERSON, not account! And not everybody is allowed to have an aid.

Anyway, this is going to start off in the Dark Tournament, and then will branch off from there. Besides the usual regular YuYu people, I will add up to three members onto their team. I know that's more than usual, eight people (I'm adding an OC), but I'm tweaking the Tournament a bit. Other characters will come in later, after the Dark Tournament.

You can create a person or an animal/elemental helper/whatever to help them along. Be sure when using animals, tell who they belong to; they can belong to one of your characters if they don't play a big role.

My faithful readers, I want you to review with the following if your want your character here:

Name:

Nickname(s):

Age: (Human or otherwise)

Species: (Human, Hanyou, Youkai, elemental, even animals! No Gods and Goddess' allowed!)

Appearance:

Power(s): (If any)

Personality:

Weapon(s): (If any)

Location: (Rekai, Makai, or Ningenkai; demons can be living in Ningenkai)

Short History:

Clothing: (Do they wear gothic clothes or do they wear comfortable clothes or whatever? Please state an example.)

Other: ("Sidekick" animals must have a quick description and what they do and cannot have a major part. If they do, you must put them as a separate character.)

Traits: (Quotes, markings, anything that makes that character recognizable. Example, a black rose they leave after a kill.)

I WILL ONLY ACCEPT 15 CHRACTERS MAX AND 3 MINIMAL! I WILL NEED MALES INSTEAD OF JUST FEMALES LOOKING FOR A MATE!!

Here is an example: [she will be in the story!]

Name: Samanfu Ranshi

Age: 16(Human years), 317 (Demon years)

Species: Shadow Fire Demon

Appearance: Long raven hair that reaches her calf that has crimson hues. Maroon eyes that can vary in color from red to black, depending on her mood. She has standard demon claws that are black to blend into the shadows. She is naturally pale due to her heritage. She is also very short because of it. (She probably only comes up to Hiei's nose!)

Powers: Can do anything with fire and shadows, including conjuring them! Expert with any weapon, but prefers her twin blades. She can call undead and spirits to her aid when needed. She is extremely fast, especially in shadows and cannot be seen unless she wants to.

Personality: Cold and calculating as well as extremely observant to most; very kind and passionate when you get to know her. If you cross her, expect death. She doesn't tolerate being called inappropriate names and is very stubborn, strong willed, and wise. She is an expert in battle strategies and very quiet and stealthy. She doesn't know what the words 'cry' or 'tears' means.

Clothing: Wears a lot of black to blend with shadows. Her hair is usually in a ponytail.

Location: Makai

Special traits: Can transform into a shadow and has extremely fast healing abilities because shadows are known to be quick. She can naturally see in dark or total darkness thanks to Shadow heritage. She has two black slash marks each cheek to show she came from a powerful family. She uses a shadow rose as her signature after special kills.

Short history: Left the Shadow realm at age 12 (human yrs.) to go into the family business of assassinating and killing. She occasionally receives visits from old friends and family. Her mother was a fire demoness and her father was the shadow demon. She is Hiei's cousin.

Other: Samanfu has a small shadow spirit that she calls Kurohi. He hangs around Samanfu all the time and can transform into anything. He is very powerful despite his size, the Shadow power in him nearly 3/4 of Samanfu's!

That's all for now; be sure to add if you want it to be a crossover with InuYasha or not! Pairings may happen, but that's telling secrets!

Hey, here is the first chapter that doesn't have any OC's because the first few chapters will set the story up. Oh yeah, just want to mention:

If you create a character, try not to make it where you would be like Hiei or Kurama. I can understand if you're a kitsune and don't specialize in plants and stuff, but if you create someone who has something like fire and ice powers and stuff that you would think would attract Hiei and Kurama's attention, then note that your character has a lesser chance of making the cut.

Disclaimer: Last time you'll see it, don't own it!
Dark Alliance of Shadows

First member of the team

Yusuke laughed as Kuwabara got hit by a glass bottle. He sat up and glared slightly at his sister, Shizuru. "Why'd you have to throw that at me? I didn't do nothing!" He shouted.

"I must compliment you on your grammar, Kuwabara." Kurama said sarcastically. Shizuru just glared at Kuwabara and muttered something about 'stupid brothers playing with cats and that don't do their chores' and walked away. "I'll be at home, baka!" She yelled as she smoked her cigarette.

Kurama, Hiei, and Yusuke were sitting in the park. Kuwabara, however, was laying in it. He was playing with his little kitten, Eikichi. Everyone else was just chatting about random things.

Hiei was in his tree like usual and Kurama and Yusuke were leaning against it.

"Hi guys!" came a cheery voice that made Kuwabara freak and grab Eikichi and hold him close. Botan walked over to them, obviously coming from a portal.

"Hey Botan." "Hello Botan." "Yo." "Hn." The guys greeted. "Don't ever scare me like that again! You almost gave Eikichi a heart attack!" Kuwabara said, hugging his kitten.

Botan stared at Kuwabara for a few seconds, then smiled at everyone else and stated, "The Dark Tournament is back and is adding a little more to their rules. Come with me so Koenma-sama can tell you more." Everyone nodded and followed Botan through her portal.

[Rekai]

A bluish portal appeared and the Rekai Tantei stepped out. The guys followed Botan as they walked down the many corridors and hallways to get to Koenma's office.

They finally reach a huge set of iron doors. Botan knocked twice on the heavy metal and stepped back slightly as the giant doors opened on their own.

Everyone walked in to see a giant stack of papers and could hear the sounds of someone stamping. "Koenma, sir? They are here, sir." Botan said a bit nervously. The stamping noise stopped and the paper stack seemed to jump down onto the floor to reveal the toddler Koenma.

Koenma looked at them for a minute, seemingly thinking. "Ah, yes!" he exclaimed. "You have come here about the Dark Tournament. Well, they have added to the prize and changed some rules. Anyway, it is mandatory that you enter this contest."

"So what's new with the Committee? They're changing rules?" Yusuke asked with his head cocked to the side slightly.

"Well, first off, they have added to the prize. With the wish, you also get a very important jewel that can make your greatest desire come true. It is called, "Youkai Sachi no Tama" which literally means, "Phantom Wish Sphere". It is the sister jewel to the Shikon no Tama that had been recollected and destroyed a few years back. The Youkai Sachi no Tama has a guardian that it was taken from at birth. The guardian of the Shikon no Tama is also the guardian of this Jewel."

"Okay, but what does that have to do with the rules?" Yusuke asked.

"Well...Get ready to find more team members." "How many?" "....four more."

At this, everyone sputtered in outrage, but they went quiet when Hiei suddenly spoke. "Make that three. My cousin in near and she would be a good addition to our group."

"Can we see her now?" Kurama asked. He never knew Hiei had other relatives.

Hiei shook his head once. "She will be visiting me tomorrow." Everyone was in stunned silence for a while, thinking about Hiei's relatives. They had thought he only had Yukina, but obviously he had more.

"Well, we still need three more people...Wait a minute... my younger sister could come too. We can go get her after we met Hiei's cousin. It is my turn to "baby-sit". And she isn't a bad fighter either..." Kurama said with a slight smile.

"Okay, two more people. All right, well you guys go home. We're going to hold a contest tomorrow so you can decide who you want to be on your team." Everyone nodded at Koenma's reasoning and went through a portal Botan created for them.

Tomorrow was going to be very interesting...

[Tomorrow]

Everyone met in the park. When Hiei finally arrived, they stood up, but Hiei just took a seat in a tree. "She's meeting us here." He said quietly.

They waited about five minutes, then started playing Janken. A few minutes later a shadow appeared. Everyone looked at the sky and saw it was noon and that there shouldn't be any shadows. It was the only shadow there.

They started to freak-out when the shadow started to morph before their eyes. When it finished, there stood a girl who looked slightly similar to Hiei, but was shorter.

She had long raven hair that reached her calf and had crimson hues. Maroon eyes that were cold and calculating; and pale skin. She had demon claws but they were black.

She was wearing a skin tight suit that was all black and came up to her neck, covered her hands, and the pant legs covered her feet entirely.

Whoever she was, she looked like someone that would kill you in an instant if you said the wrong thing.

============End Chapter=============

What do you think? Keep sending in characters!

Preview: Inuyoukai the Hanyou and Samanfu the Shadow!

"Who the hell are you?"

"Who I am is none of your concern. What you should be more worried about is your little friend here. He is grating on my nerves and my blades are very sharp."

Sorry this was deleted!
