Chapter 1: The New Kid on the Block
"So Koenma wants us to run an errand for him? Sounds weird to me, but he's not exactly the kind of person you would want to make mad, he might put you in 'time out'." said Yusuke as they walked down the long hallway to Koenma's office.
Although Yusuke was almost 19 years old, he still acted like a typical teenager. Kurama and Hiei acted pretty much the same but they weren't immature like Yusuke and Kuwabara. Kuwabara had settled down more than Yusuke had, but he still liked to play childish pranks occasionally. Today was different though, he had just been dumped by the only girl he had ever truly loved. If he hadn't played on of those stupid little pranks, they would probably still be together. This was the biggest amount of pain he had felt in a long time, and he seemed to have a hole in his heart.
"I don't care, I just want to get this done so I can go home." mumbled Kuwa.
When they opened the door there were more people there than normal. They were all women and most of them were tall, heavily set women who looked like they would fight to the death. Except one, one of them was different.
"So what's this errand you were talking about and what's with all the ladies?" When Yusuke said this, one of the young girls who was running franticly around the room ran franticly into Kuwabara, knocking them both down and breaking the jar that was in her hands.
"*Gasp* I'm so sorry! I'm such a clumsy person! Are you alright?" said the girl. She seemed shy and weird and cute all at the same time. Her hair was knee-length in a ponytail and was hunter green with silver streaks, her eyes were turquoise and she was short, not near as short as Hiei, but still pretty short.
"Yeah, I'm OK, but look at your hands, they're cut all to pieces. You need help," said Kuwabara who was just starting to get used to the single life again.
"I'm fine, I've been hurt worse...Oops! I've got work I need to do, I'm sorry for keeping you. Bye."
"Koenma, who the heck was that?" said Kuwa who still hadn't picked himself up off the floor.
"That was Satochi. She is helping me around the office and doing some things for me concerning paperwork. I don't have any idea where she came from or if she has a family or not. I just know she's smart and quick with her hands. Oh yeah, your errand is to find out which of these women is the strongest. You are going to have a little tournament and narrow it down to four girls. Then I will pick the one I think is physically capable to be the newest member of your 'gang'."
"Well you better get started so you will be done today. There's only about 25 girls here so you should be done pretty quick." Koenma said as he stuck his head out into the hall."Hey Satochi, get in here!"
"Yes, Sir."
"You're going to be in this tournament."
"But Sir..."
"No, don't argue. Just do your best and use what you learned on the streets."
"But I don't want to hurt anybody..."
"Too bad, I know you can fight, you just don't want to. Now go!"
She unwillingly walked over and joined the line of female fighters. They were given the rules and the tournament began. The guys had gone out to lunch because they had a pretty good idea it wouldn't be over before they got back. On their way there they ran into Botan, who was also on her lunch break, and they asked her about the new girl.
"So what's going on with Koenma and the girl with the green hair? Is she like his love toy or something?"
"Are you kidding me? She's so timid she has a hard time talking to people let alone do that!" Botan laughed." Let's have lunch and go see what's going on with this tournament thing."
They all agreed on that and sat down to a good old-fashioned microwaved meal.
.....................
When they came back to Koenma's office to pick up a few things before heading down to watch some fights, they saw that Koenma was back, sitting in his chair, and Satochi was asleep in a different chair.
"Man, does fighting take that much out of her? How many rounds did she stay in for?" said Yusuke sarcastically.
"Well, technically speaking, she was the fight. She won her first match by a landslide and all the other girls took her on at once. She won and came out with a few bruises and a broken rib but those girls weren't very good fighters. They were too big and clumsy and they were all humans. I just found out that her odd hair color is not dyed but natural. She is a demon, and a pretty powerful one at that. Somewhere between Kuwabara and Kurama. She's the new member of your team, so you better get used to her. Oh by the way, she's not exactly timid anymore. The fighting kinda made her come out of her bubble and see things more clearly. I'm losing a pretty good secretary but you guys are winning a valuable teammate. It kinda evens out (although it was nice to have someone do my paperwork for me...)."
"She looks too girly to be a fighter. Are you sure she can fight?" puzzled Kuwa.
"Oh, I don't think you'll have to worry about her not being a very good fighter. That I promise, your problem is making her fight. One last thing, you might want to keep her away from the public for a while, she doesn't like humans that much. It has a lot to do with trust."
"Great, another human hater, looks to me like we keep seeing more and more of them everyday. Oh well, I think we should take that as a challenge and get this kid to trust us."
"Yusuke, I don't think she is the kind of person you'll want to challenge..."
"Oh, this will be interesting."
