Chapter 1: Binding Ceremony
The sun was shining and the sky was clear blue. A huge crowd had gathered on a grassy hill. There was a sense of joy and sadness in the air. Everyone was watching the parking lot below the hill with expectancy. A hunter-green van pulled up and parked. A man with jet-black hair and dark brown eyes appeared out of the car. He was wearing a green button up shirt and blue jeans. A young woman and with brown hair and tan eyes got out of the car too. She wore a pretty yellow sleeveless summer dress. Then the woman opened the rear doors of the van and a girl of about 6 years old with hair the color midnight and eyes the color of coke emerged from the van. She had on a white shirt with a green skirt and a green vest over the shirt.
"Mommy will there be ice cream and cake at this party?" Rei asked
" Of course sweetie," Keiko replied " Now remember this is a special party for daddy so behave" Keiko warned.
" I will mommy," Rei promised
" Don't worry so much Keiko, Rei is way bettered behaved than I was at her age." Yusuke joked as they headed up the hill to join the party.
" Well that doesn't say much does it? " Keiko teased
" Yeah I was bad... Hey!" Yusuke said
Yusuke made it to the top of the hill and he and Keiko went to speak with a blue haired girl in a pink kimono.
"Botan it is so nice to see you!" Keiko said as the two girls hugged
" I'm glad to see you too Keiko" Botan replied happily
" Yusuke you're the first of the team to arrive where's Kurama, Kuwabara, and Hiei?" Botan asked.
" Kuwabara left at about the same time I left, traffic must be bad. I know they'll be here though," Yusuke answered
" Mom, can I go play with Rei? " a young girl with lavender eyes and dark brown hair asked Botan.
" Of course Kita just don't wander off too far and be careful," Botan replied
" Kita is growing up so fast. It feels like it was just yesterday when you and Koenma brought her home from the hospital." Keiko said
" Rei is growing up beautifully too. You should be proud," Botan smiled
They adults watched as Kita ran to meet Rei underneath a cherry tree. Kita pulled a floating oar out of thin air and the girls took turns riding it. Then suddenly a silver van and a red van pulled up at the bottom of the hill. A man dressed in a white shirt with blue slacks and a blue overcoat appeared out of the silver van. He had dark brown eyes and carrot colored hair. Then a woman with turquoise hair emerged from the van in a denim skirt and sky blue tank top. A young girl and a young boy jumped out of the van too. She had carrot hair, dark brown eyes and was wearing a white summer dress. He had turquoise hair, violet eyes and was wearing a white button up shirt with blue jeans. A man with crimson hair and emerald green eyes got out of the red van in a red button up shirt and khakis. He was soon followed by a woman with black hair and brown eyes in a yellow peasant top with a yellow skirt and a young girl with crimson hair and emerald eyes in an orange shirt with an orange skirt.
They all rushed up the hill to meet Yusuke, Keiko and Botan. The women with black hair held the hand of the man with crimson hair.
" Hey Kuwabara!" Yusuke greeted, and the two high-fived each other in greeting. "Kurama I'm glad you could make it."
"It's good to see you too Yusuke. It feels like so long since the team has been together in one place," Kurama replied
"Nori! How are things with you?" Keiko asked the girl with long black hair
"Things are great, Kurama koi moved us into a new house to be closer to his business and I'm getting a bigger studio for my designs," Nori said
"Your dresses are so amazing," Botan praised
"It's only because I've got such a supportive husband," Nori said smiling at Kurama
"Yukina, how are things with Kuwabara? " Botan asked
"Kuwabara was just made partner at his firm and I've started writing the sequel to my bestseller," Yukina answered happily
"Keiko is it true that you and Yusuke are going to open a second noodle house?" Yukina asked
"Yes we're very excited about it." Keiko responded
Akina, the girl with the crimson hair, Mineiko, the girl with the orange hair, and Yuki, the boy with the turquoise hair quickly joined Rei and Kita underneath the tree. The children decided to play tag and everyone was running around the trunk of the tree trying to avoid Kita, who had been named it. The children had known each other since they were infants so they were very comfortable with each other.
Two more people arrived soon after Kurama. A man with very odd hair (Black with blue tips and a white star in the center) came with a woman with black hair along with their daughter, Katana, who had black hair with blue tips. The boy came to the party with his father, a man with pink hair. The boy was Genkoji the grandson of Genkai. Those two children soon went to play with Rei and the others too.
"Hiei glad you could make it," Kurama greeted
"I'm only here for the food, I didn't come to see you humans,' Hiei said coldly
"Actually he's very glad to be here I must apologize for my husband," said the woman who came with Hiei
" It's okay Hitomi, we're used to it by now," Botan replied
" Yes my brother is always cold," Yukina replied
" When did he tell you? " Yusuke asked
" Right before my wedding to Kuwabara I must say I was surprised," Yukina said
The group listened in as Hiei and Kuwabara greeted each other.
"Hello," Hiei said
"Hi," Kuwabara replied. Then Hiei walked away
" Well, at least they're being civil," Yukina chirped
"The gangs all here lets eat!" Yusuke stated
All the people on the hill cheered because they had been starving as they waited for the guests of honor to arrive. Music from a portable boom box filled the air and sandwiches were passed every which way.
"Are you sure this is what you really want Yusuke?" Keiko whispered
" Yes of course and all of the guys agree," Yusuke replied, looking deeply into his wife's eyes.
"I propose a toast," Yusuke said as he handed out cups filled with juice to Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei
" To the Reikai Tantei friendship," Yusuke said
" To the Reikai Tantei friendship," the others chorused
*************************************
Rei and her best friend Mineiko were finishing up their sandwiches beneath the cherry tree. Akina came and sat down with them too.
" I thought you were racing with Katana," Rei said
" She keeps running too fast I got tired of it," Akina stated
" It's not my fault I'm faster than you, " Katana said, appearing in the branches above their heads. She jumped down and landed gracefully. Suddenly, Genkoji and Yuki appeared each baring a wreath of cherry blossoms.
" Here Rei I –I made this for you. It's a crown," Yuki said nervously thrusting the flowers into Rei's hand.
" Thank you Yuki. They're beautiful, " Rei replied while placing the wreath on her head.
" Akina san these are for you," Genkoji smiled holding out his wreath.
" I love it, Genji" Akina cooed sweetly
" Hey c'mon they're serving cake and ice cream now!" Katana shouted.
The children quickly ran to get a slice of cake or scoop of ice cream. After the cake the crowd became quiet as Koenma, the great prince of the spirit world motioned for silence. He was in the form of a 24 year old man today and looked slightly sad. Koenma pulled Yusuke aside for a minute and spoke to him
" Yusuke despite anything I may have said I want you to know that you were one of the best spirit detectives spirit world ever had. I made a really good choice in choosing you," Koenma intoned sincerely, " but I'm still mad at you for calling me a toddler,"
Then Koenma began to address the crowd" My friends we are here today at the border of the spirit world and the human world to recognize Yusuke Urameshi, Kazuma Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei." They have served spirit world and the human world very well." The crowd cheered and applauded the Reikai Tantei loudly. "Thanks to their efforts the human world and spirit world are now safe from many threats in the Makai," Koenma continued, "the boys however have made a decision. Now that the world is safe they have asked to be stripped of their powers. We gather here today to honor them and to wish them good luck in their new lives. Koenma then produced a gold bowl. " To bind your powers I will need some of you blood. I will prick each your finger and then collect a few drops in a bowl," Koenma explained. Koenma then caused a crystal ball with a lid to appear. He opened the ball. " This is a binding orb I will pour the blood in here and it will turn into anti-power liquid. You will drink this liquid and when all is done your powers will be gone. Shall we begin?" The Reikai Tantei nodded.
Koenma pricked Yusuke's finger first and collected 3 drops. Koenma then poured the liquid into the crystal ball. The ball glowed and a mouthful of green liquid formed within the ball. Koenma dispensed the liquid into a cup and Yusuke drank it. The liquid tasted like soda but Yusuke did not linger on the taste. As he drank Yusuke felt his power drain from him. He pricked Kuwabara next and collected 3 drops. He deposited it the orb and a blue liquid formed. Kuwabara drank quickly and he too felt his power leave him. Koenma then pricked Kurama and collect 3 drops, and the process was repeated. Finally Hiei was pricked and drank his anti-power. They were now ordinary humans.
An hour later it began to rain and the families returned to their homes. Rei watched the rain splatter on the car window. She smiled remembering how much fun she'd had that day. Rei reached up to adjust Yuki's cherry blossom crown. She fell asleep quickly. When she awoke her memory of the biding ceremony and the magical oar would be gone. Koenma would erase the memories of the children so they would think they were ordinary kids. It would not do to have them realize their destinies so soon.
That's the prologue to my story. Note: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho characters but the ones I've made up are mine. Speaking of them I can write up profiles for Nasumi, Hitomi, Genkoji or any of the other characters I've made up if 5 people ask in their reviews. I'll also explain why Yusuke and the others wanted to have their powers bound in later chapters. If anyone has any suggestions, questions, comments, or concerns catch me at www.Nkitpanich@msn.com I'll write again soon. I welcome any ideas you all have. Also this is the first part of the first episode. I've also got ideas for a movie adventure and might write up more adventures featuring the daughters of the Reikai Tantei. If you want me to continue then you just have to say so in your review Sayonara
