A/N: okay first i just want to say that as you may know, i do not, nor will i ever, own any of the Yu Yu Hakusho characters. T_T that honor goes to Yoshihiro Togashi. i might add in a character or two from a different anime later in the story. not sure yet. but if i do, it will probably be from Digimon since that was my favorite first anime and i already have so many stories about them from years ago. anywho, lets get this story on the road. BTW: I'm not yet sure what to call this story since i have yet to decide on the main scenes for this story. so yeah.

Chapter One

Hiei roamed the ningenkai forest, searching for a quiet place to relax after the long and stressful day he had had. Once again, he was in a foul mood for being forced to stay in the human world, thanks to a certain idiotic human buffoon and a certain toddler who also happened to be the co-ruler of spirit world whenever his father, King Enma, was away on business.

***

After their mission ended, the spirit detectives arrived back at Koenma's office with a fuming Hiei and a very battered Kuwabara. Koenma had looked up from his absent-minded paper stamping when his office door had opened with a loud BANG! Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara walked (or in Kuwabara's case, limped) up to Koenma's desk while Hiei stomped to the farthest end of the office and slumped against the wall, arms folded across his chest, with a loud Humph!

Koenma turned from Hiei to the other three. As far as he could see, Kuwabara was the only one who looked in serious need of a doctor. "What happened?" he asked. "Something tells me Kuwabara's injuries weren't from the mission."

Yusuke cast a quick glance at Hiei before speaking. "Well, basically Kuwabara had put his foot in his mouth, again, and Hiei just helped him get it out." He shrugged. Koenma looked a Kurama for clarification.

"Well," began Kurama. "Hiei was in a bit of a bad mood by the end of the mission. Just one of those days when nothing goes the way you want them to. And Kuwabara kept making comments about a few…" he paused to find the right words without angering Hiei further. "'mistakes' he felt Hiei had made during some of his fights, as well as the usual comments about size and such, adding to Hiei's growing anger and…." Kurama finished by indicating to Kuwabara's bloody state.

"Hn! Serves him right, stupid frggnfmngengin…" Hiei went on to explain just what he thought of Kuwabara, using words even King Raizen dare not utter.

Koenma nodded to Kurama, both in understanding and in thanks for the explanation. He needed to remember that it is always easier to ask Kurama for explanations than Yusuke. Koenma sighed and shuffled through random papers on his desk. "I see. Well, other than that, I assume the mission was a success?"

Yusuke perked up. "Hell yeah, nothing to it!" He exclaimed, his usual cocky self back in place. "Those wimps never even knew what hit 'em. By the way, here's your stupid box." He pulled a small black box the size of a golf ball from his pocket and tossed it to Koenma. It had blue and white swirls, like miniature galaxies, on each side along with a scattered amount of little star-like dots.

"Careful with this!" he cried, dropping the papers he was sorting. He caught the little box before it hit the desk. "It may be small, but it is a very powerful and ancient artifact that's been in our vault for centuries. It is very dangerous and very valuable."

"Really?" Yusuke asked, looking at the box with new interest. "What does it do?"

The office was silent for a moment, as everyone waited to hear what Koenma would say. Well, everyone except Hiei. He was still cursing Kuwabara with every name he could think of. And when he ran out of ideas, he would start over again.

"Well," Koenma began. "I have no idea what it does."

CRASH!

Kurama, Yusuke, and Kuwabara fell to the floor in exasperation. Unfortunately, Kuwabara was too weak and sore to get back up. Hiei ignored them. Yusuke glared at Koenma. "What the hell do you mean, you don't know?!" He yelled. "You're telling us we risked our lives, again, for a box that might actually be useless?!"

"I don't know what it does because I was never able to touch it!" Koenma yelled back. "Dad never let me go anywhere near it. He said it was too dangerous, even for me. That's why it's been locked in the vault for so long. Dad is the only one who knows what it does, but he won't tell anyone, not even me. But if you want to ask him, go right ahead but just remember that 1) you're not suppose to even know about it, and 2)this isn't even suppose to leave the vault, let alone the palace. If he finds out it did, there's no telling what he'll do."

Yusuke was quiet as he thought this over. It looked like a very painful process. Finally, he looked up. "Fine. Can we go now?"

Koenma sat back down and leafed through his papers again. "Well, I don't see any other missions right now, so yes, you may go. Oh, and Hiei."

Hiei stopped as he was about to head for the door. He turned back to Koenma. "I know you can't stand Kuwabara," Koenma said. "But don't forget the rules: If you kill a human-"

"I know!" Hiei snapped. "Why the hell do you think he's been alive for so long?" Then he turned and stormed out the doors before anyone could stop him.

Koenma sighed. "Keep an eye on him, you guys. Just in case he ever forgets the rules in his anger.

"Of course." said Kurama. Then they walked out the doors and headed home.


*MoonGCyn: so what did you guys think of the first chapter? At first I was going to make this a one shot but I got so into it that I already have ideas for the next chapter so it will be up soon. And don't worry, I'm not going to be one of those writers that gives up on a story half way through or stops updating. Comments and flames are welcome as long as they are ideas of how I should have made this better. I might consider them for my next chapter or story. so questions, comments, conserns, you know the drill. so please review. thanx*
