Hi all! I'm back! Different show, different genre, same Foxx. But yeah, it's just whatever I guess.
Um, ok, so personal warning stuff: I solemnly swear that I am up to no good but also that this story is not like my last. It doesn't end so happy go lucky but there will hopefully be a sequel to answer some questions and then you shall have your happy ending. Also rated M for a reason, children.
Official stuff: I solemnly swear that I am still up to no good and that I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or its characters.
Enjoy!

A long time ago, before the battle for rule over Demon World, before the dark tournament, long before a certain spirit detective's ancestors were even born, there was a fox and he was running. "There never a dull moment in the life of a thief," he commented to his companion running beside him. "You go. I'll lead them off." The bat like figure grunted with a nod and they went their separate ways. The fox slowed a little so their pursuers would follow him and not his partner. After another thirty minute or so of running, he thought he finally set the hunters far off any possible trail. They probably wouldn't even be able to find their way home. He stopped and smirked, proud of his cunning but something wasn't right. Was it? It was! Smoke! But from where? This was wild country. The only demons that live here were animals and this area was known for its numerous fox skulks. He shrugged and turned to leave for home when he heard the cry of one of the tracker's dogs. Maybe an investigation of the smoke was in order. The smell would throw off the dogs and he would be able feed his curiosity. Two birds with one well thrown stone. He sprinted off after the scent until he saw smoke in the distance. Definitely foxes. He continued with caution until he saw flames. Hundreds of dead, everywhere. This was a huge group! He heard another cry but this wasn't a hunting dog. He ran into the thick of the fire and found the origin of the sound. A small snow white fox with red tipped ears was caught under a fallen tree. "Pity," he tutted at the fox. He bent down to make sure the last thing it saw was his taunting face but he caught a glace of its pleading eyes. Perfect red orbs, full of life, knowledge and, more importantly, power. Maybe this fox could be of use to him. "Don't struggle," he murmured and placed a hand on the tree. A plant quickly spouted out from under his hand and started to eat away at the tree, dissolving it slowly until the fox's body was free. "A female." He said a bit too happily for the white fox's pleasure. She tried to rise but failed miserably and wailed in pain. "Stop. You'll only make it worse." He carefully picked up the little fox but she started screeching in return for his help. "Be quiet!" he snapped but she wanted nothing to do with him and continued raising hell. "I warned you…" he placed a hand over her muzzle and she lost consciousness.
