Disclaimer- Sadly I do not own any aspect of the show nor it's characters.
Author notes- First let me state this is my first time listing so please review so I know if I should keep posting.. Please...
I prefer to write the characters as they appoarch college or are already attending college. Kurama is still the oldest at age 22.I never watched the final episodes which take place in the dark tournament so I just kinda wing it. If I get any character names wrong, or misspell drop me a line to let me know and I can try to get it corrected. Thank you very much!
One Stormy Day
They sky over Tokyo was black with swollen menace, threatening the city with thunder and lightening but no rain yet.
Ms Okinara's third grade class was currently visiting the Natural History Museum for their first field trip of the year. The museum was beautiful, but it was educational, which was the worst thing in all the world to a rowdy class on the end of Friday.
Young Suuichi had every intention of being a good boy and listening to museum tour guide but when his friends dared him to slip off so they could play a game of freeze tag he quickly agreed. A tremendous crash of lightning shook the building causing the lights to over load with a ear splitting whine and throwing the building into total darkness before the back up generators could kick in. The terrified cries of the class drowned out the three screams from the darkened floor above them. The museum employee's were quick and efficient in ushering Ms Okinara's class out and into their bus. It wasn't until they were safely back and school was getting out that the teacher even noticed the three missing boys.
CHAPTER ONE- DIVIDE AND SEARCH Kurama was just arriving home as the skies opened up in a deluge of awesome power. He was done with his classes at the local university for the day and had no recent assignment's from Koenma. Lately spirit world had been calm. The few cases that did come in were equally distributed amongst the four detectives allowing each of them to concentrate on their own lives. Before Kurama even opened the front door he could sense something was terribly wrong. He slipped off his shoes at the entrance way and could hear his mother gently weeping in the kitchen.
"What do you mean? How can you have lost my son? Where is he?" She had sunk to her knees with the phone cord twisted around her hand as the other was pressed tightly to her chest as if veering a grievous wound.
"Yes, yes, I understand. I'll start looking for him myself"
"Mother, what's wrong?" Kurama gathered her into his arms. She was still terribly thin in his mind due to her frequent illnesses.
"Oh Kurama! It's Suuichi! He's gone missing from his field trip! They don't know where he is. I'm going to go start looking for him." She started to stand but held her tight. "It's okay Mother. Stay here and I'll look for him. Besides you should stay here in case he shows up"
"No I should be the one to search from him! You'll catch your death of cold out there"
"It's okay. I'll be back quick and have Suuichi with me!" Kurama soothed. He kissed her on the cheek before she could protest further, stopping briefly to grab his black trench coat and an umbrella then he was out the door.
The rain instantly slapped at him. The water was held at bay by the umbrella and coat but the wind threatened to rip the umbrella out of his hand. It was better he be the one to search and not his mother. The peculiar duality of his birth had gifted him with the insights and wisdom of Yoko, a powerful and cunning demon. In a way it was Yoko who was his father. It was also because of Yoko that he had other resources out of the ordinary. It was now time for Kurama to utilize them. He reached for his communicator.
Yusuke was bored. Beyond bored. He was trapped at his apartment. No Keiko to tease. No Kuwabara to beat. He couldn't even run out to the local arcade because of the lousy weather. The arcade wasn't event hat great but there was usually several idiot punks he could beat the crap out of. The weather was coming down hard now. No one was stupid enough to go out. That's when his communicator beeped. "Yusuke here"
"Yusuke, this is Kurama! I need your help"
"Sure Kurama, what's up?" Kurama quickly explained the situation.
"Yeah sure. I'll get a hold of Kuwabara and we'll start looking near his elementary school. We can get Botan and the girls to search the parks"
"Thanks Yusuke. I'll try to get a hold of Hiei and search the museum. Kurama out." The screen died. Yusuke smiled. Finally something to do.
