Some things, no matter what world you live in, always appeared the same. A hospital no matter how sick you were always appeared neat and sterile. A hotel room, no matter how neat and clean always held evidence of a prior living being. Much, however, to Suzuka's dismay a waiting room, was still a waiting room. If you happened to find yourself in a waiting room be it in the human, demon, or spirit realm a waiting room was still too bright, too white, and full of those tiny metal chairs one could never get comfortable in.

"Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz."

Not to mention the unwritten rule that the smelly drunk guy sitting next to you always snored and drooled in his sleep.

"Rinku wake Chu up."

"Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz."

The blonde looked over the sleeping drunk's form to see the yo-yo child had passed out in his chair as well, and was now using a stack of out dated magazines as a temporary pillow.

"Are we the only ones still awake?" The ex-clown muttered, casting aside a pair of fours from his hand of cards.

"At the pace this damn thing is taking I wouldn't be surprised if we're the only ones still alive." Shishi muttered turning a page from the stale magazine. "Hm, that human talk show woman gained back all her weight."

"Shishi, that magazine is ten years old."

"…Oh"

"I never be pay'n attention ta that sorta thing." Jin shrugged, discarding a pair of threes. "Ya still with us, Toy?"

The blue lump of demon in the next chair briefly pulled his head out of the fetal position to groan out a reply that sounded like a cross between a yes and a yawn.

"How long have we been waiting?" The samurai grumbled.

"Ten minutes longer than the last time you asked that question."

"How long Suzuka!"

"Six hours, fifty-three minutes, and twenty-two seconds Shishi."

"That long?" The redhead blinked.

"How the blasted hell should I know! There's a bloody clock over there! Keep track of time yourself." The blonde pointed.

The samurai growled throwing down the magazine and stomping over to the receptionist's desk.

"Excuse me! I don't know if you know who I am, but my…acquaintances and I have been waiting in your blasted waiting room for the past FIVE hours, and we demand service right this instant!"

The blonde ferry girl smacked her gum and looked up at the man from over her computer, "Name?"

"Like I said the past twenty times I was up here it's Shishiwakamaru!"

"Oh you again…" She muttered resuming her typing. "Sorry, Shishiwaka…can you spell the last part?"

"S-H-I-S-"

"No just the …part after waka."

The samurai could feel the vein his temple threatening to explode. "Maru? M-A-R-U, M as in moron! A as in as-"

"Shishi!" Suzuka called waving the samurai over. "I think it's finally our turn."

The samurai looked over his shoulder to give the receptionist his final glare. "You haven't heard the last from me."

"I quiver with fear, as soon as my break rolls around I'm sure I'll faint. " She mumbled rolling her eyes and going back to her solitaire.

"Insolent woman!" Shishi muttered, walking over to his group to find them talking to the Spirit World Prince himself.

Glaring at the toddler in adult form, he allowed himself to fly off the handle mouth first. "As important as you are, or at least claim to be I don't understand how you can have such an ill-paced system such as this. I should not be subject to such treatment!"

"I'm sorry you have such a problem with my staff, and the way I run my things around here Shishi. If it's too much of an inconvenient we could always forget the whole thing and you ALL could return back to the Makai. "The brunette prince spoke around his pacifier.

"Koenma-san, I speak for all of us when I tell you how much we appreciate your help in this matter, and we understand just how time consuming such a task is." Touya quickly defended, casting a glare at the samurai.

"I appreciate that, now as I was trying to say…Even with the barrier down, demons are choosing to live in ningenkai or makai. However, there have been a few who we have granted dual citizenship to, Yusuke, Kurama, and some others, but as you know they have good reasons. "

"Priority over favoritism." Suzuka muttered.

"That would be the professional thing to say." The ruler shrugged. "But unfortunately I can't just wave my hands and grant six A-class demons custody to jump worlds whenever they feel like it. I need legitimate reasons; Family, previous obligations, hell a medical excuse, maybe homesickness that makes you physical sick. The thing is I don't have time to listen to all of this and do your background investigations, I have people that do that for me."

"Background investigations?" Suzuka stared, raising an eyebrow.

"As I was saying, Ayame." Koenma gestured to the dark-haired woman in the kimono. "Will be going over your information with each of you…individually, Ayame?"

"Yes, sir?" The kimono-clad woman bowed.

"They're all yours. Good luck." The prince dismissed returning in the direction he came from.

"Now if we could get started." The ferry-woman smiled, shuffling the six files in her arms.

"Actually," Shishi began. "I can give you my reason for my request right now."

"I'm sorry Wakamaru-san, but I find it easier for both you and Spirit World if these matters are handled individually, and privately. If you don't mind I would like to start with Ta-"

"It's Suzuka." The blonde quickly interrupted.

"Of course, would you please come with me?"

"Wait a minute!" Shishi stared, the frown on his lips forming into a smile. "Ta-what? Is that your surname? You have a surname?"

"Yes, I have a surname! I may not have been born into the class a samurai is born into, but I was lucky enough to have a surname at birth! Shishiwakmaru!" The blonde huffed, sending a look at the demon before following the flora-named woman to her office.

I've been wanting to do this for so LONG! I don't know why I started on it today, but oh well I have. First off standard disclaimer, I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho, none of my work is associated with the original story, it's just a harmless fanfic I write to help keep the sorry thing that is my life going. I will probably post Suzuka's past tonight that means possibly Saturday in the early AM, as I am mainly a night writer.

So here is what's going to happen; I plant to 'expose' my own creations of the dark tournament character's pasts. I'll start with Suzuka, because I actually had his planned first, ((It's really going to shock you all)) and then I'll go on. But I have pretty much everyone's figured out so you guys and go ahead in vote in your reviews of whose past you want to read about afterwards. Thank you for reading and please REVIEW!!!
