(New) Author's Note- Hello, Enigma here. This story technically isn't mine, it was thought of and started by Sesshoumaru Minion. She thought of the plotline, etc. Credit really goes to her, not me, though I'll start writing the chapters come chapter 8. Hope you enjoy the story. By the way, I don't own YYH in any way (except for my DVDs .u).

(Old) Author's Note- Okay, before you read this, you should know that this takes place AFTER the series. Meaning that unless you've seen the last episodes, this probably won't make too much sense. So, here is a little info (a wee spoiler, not too revealing- Yusuke isn't a spirit detective, Kurama is in human world, Hiei is in demon world, the Kakai barrier, the barrier between demon world and living world, is gone)

So, I am pleased to bring to you, 罵倒された兄弟! Or in other words, The Cursed Brother!


"What a beautiful day. The birds are singing, the trees are green, the sun is shining, the grass has a layer of morning dew…I guess it doesn't get much better then this…"

Yukina rubbed her eye, trying to get the last bit of sleepiness out. She had just woken up, so all she was wearing was a simple kimono. It was blue with pink and dark blue flowers on it.

She was sitting on one of the many porches in Genkai's home. It was a large house with many, many rooms. It was surrounded by nature. Perfect, untouched nature. Genkai owned land all the way from an old stonewall to a nice sandy beach-which Kuwabara invited Yukina to go to with Yusuke and Keiko just the other day.

As Yukina sat and stared at the wind causing the grass to stir, she sighed. "Things are so well. I have good friends, I live with Genkai, a great elder woman who gives me more kindness to me then I could ever return to her, but why am I sad?" she asked herself this question every morning. But deep down, she knew why.

Although she enjoyed this world with her friends, she could not help but let her mind wander to demon world where her brother lived.

Somewhere, he is there. I just know it…but what if he's looking for me? He wouldn't possible look for me here…what if he goes to the Island of Koorimes and I am not there? Or…maybe he isn't even looking for me…or worse…dead.

She shook her head with that thought. No! He's not! I know he's not! He just can't be… Her eyes got blurry as a tear was strolling down her cheek. It soon fell of her face and she saw a perfect little gem in her lap. "Lovely day, isn't it?" Yukina jumped with a gasp.

She quickly turned around. "Genkai! Good morning!" she rubbed her tear away. "I-I'm so sorry! I didn't offer you anything to drink! Would you like some tea? Or just hot water? Or…"

But she stopped when Genkai smiled and laughed to herself. "No. No, nothing for me." She looked up at the trees. Yukina saw and looked the same direction. "But why? Why on such a glorious day, do you cry?"

Yukina turned around to face Genkai. She felt more tears coming. She turned away and stared at the ground.

Genkai sighed and sat next to her crisscross. "I'm so sorry, Genkai. You have treated me very well and I cause you problems with my foolish feelings." Genkai did not say anything for a minute or two. Then she spoke with an elderly voice. "Child…you wish to find your brother, do you not?"

Yukina looked at Genkai with surprise. Then she smiled. "Genkai, you always know, don't you?"

Genkai let out another sigh. "No. I don't. Even after all these years on this earth." Genkai looked too see a mother bird feeding her young. Yukina looked at Genkai and tried to see what she was looking at. "The birds…" Yukina said. "When I was young, I loved to watch them fly trough the sky. I guess I wished I could fly away too. To a world with no worries…but it's foolish to think of something like that, isn't it? Genkai?"

Genkai looked out as if to really think about that. "Everything." She pointed to the birds. "Everything in this world will soon be gone. No doubt in my mind. Man is taking over. Forests are being destroyed. Animals are dying. Pollution fills the air." She turned to meet Yukina's glare. "You should enjoy this world while it is still here. You will out live me. You will out live most of us being that you are a Koorime and we are no more than humans. Our bodies wither away faster then yours." Genkai stood up. "So go. Find your brother. It's what you want, isn't it? And when you do, bring him here so I can kick his ass for taking so long to find you."

Yukina was feeling very emotional and passionate until Genkai said that. Does she know something I don't?

Yukina stood up and followed Genkai who had gone into the house. "But where should I look? When should I look?"

"As soon as possible. Take only the things you need."

Yukina jogged so she was in front of Genkai so she could look in Genkai's eyes so Genkai would truly know how thankful she was. "Thank you, Genkai. After all you have done, thank you." And with that, Yukina ran to her room to get her things.

Genkai sighed and went to the next room where Puu was sleeping. When Genkai entered the room, Puu woke up to her footsteps. He let up his head to greet Genkai. Genkai sat next to Puu. Hiei. You fool. How can you leave this poor girl searching for you?

Mean while, in Yukina's room, she was looking for things she would need.

"Let's see…Genkai said to only bring the things I need. So, I will probably change my clothes into a more suitable outfit for demon world. I wouldn't really want to stand out…" Yukina ended up wearing a basic kimono that she wore when she first met Yusuke and co.

She also went into the kitchen and packed a couple pieces of breed, a small bottle of water to drink and a small apple for later that day. I can always get some food while I'm in demon world…but I think that packing some of my own would be a wise idea! She put it all in a small bag and put it in her shirtsleeve.

"Now, where did Genkai go?" She looked to see if she back to the porch they were sitting on before. No. She went back inside and went to Genkai's room. She knocked, no reply. Yukina called Genkai's name but got no reply. She slowly creaked open the door to Genkai's room. No Genkai.

Finally it hit Yukina. Puu. Genkai always spends her mornings with Puu! But where do I find Puu? Yukina went from room to room calling, "Puu? Genkai?" Until she heard Genkai. She was talking to somebody. "Puu? Genkai?"

She finally got to the door leading to the room where she thought Genkai was. The doors where a special paper door that slides open. She saw Genkai's image, and Puu's, but there was another. "A visitor?" She slid the door open.

"Genkai?" she said. Everybody looked to Yukina. Genkai, Puu, and Kurama. "Oh! Kurama!" Yukina laughed with delight and entered the room. "How have you been?"

Kurama smiled. "We can talk about that on our way there."

"What? Our way where?"

Genkai cleared her throat. "Yukina, Kurama is going to guide you to demon world."

Yukina looked at Kurama. He was dressed in an outfit a lot like Genkai's. It was a white top and bottom with a red top with white trimmings to go over it that reached almost to his feet. It was looked a lot like the one he wore through most of the dark tournament and the tournament to decide the ruler of demon world.

"You didn't go out of your way for this, did you?"

"Don't worry. I have been meaning to return to demon world or various reasons. I needed to do this."

Yukina took a few more steps towards Kurama. "What about school?" Kurama chuckled to himself. "I can afford this." Kurama looked Yukina in the eye. "Trust me."

Yukina couldn't believe this. Kurama was so nice to do this for her, she thought.

"All right you love birds, get going. Kurama, be sure to fill her in." Kurama looked at Genkai and nodded, "I will."

And with that, Yukina and Kurama were off. Genkai watched as Kurama and Yukina started to walk down the many stairs from her house. Yukina was waving, but turned around to watch where she was going.

Genkai sat next to Puu, crisscross. "Hiei, you are in for one heck of a ride." Genkai chuckled. "Idiot."
