Disclaimer: I don't own "Yu Yu Hakusho" nor do I own "Star Trek". Sorry lawyers no sending me to court today! Mhahahaha!
Author Note(s): This is what you get when I'm thinking Yu Yu Hakusho while my mom and sis are watching Star Trek. Why? Well partly I wanted to put my three favorite characters of Yu Yu Hakusho into a crossover they've never been in before- to my knowledge.
Chapter One: The Meeting of Friends
Kurama sat calmly on a park bench shaded by the many trees above him. In the trees above him Hiei sat, both of them were waiting for their two missing former team mates. Yuusuke had invited them all here saying it was a kind of reunion.
"Urameshi invites us here and then forgets." Hiei grumbled above him. Kurama couldn't help the sigh that escaped him it would be most like Yuusuke, like the time the teen had invited them over to his house only to forget.
Kurama chucked then remembering that Hiei had near scared the former spirit detective to death when he had tapped on his window. Of course that had been when he was still fourteen.
It was harder to scare Yuusuke now a days but Hiei was always willing to give it a try if only for a good laugh.
Kurama looked around them, he could have sworn he had felt Yuusuke yet there was no one there.
"Hiei?" Kurama glanced up and frowned, Hiei had disappeared. A shadow fell over the picnic table he was sitting at. He, of course, being the curious kitsune he was looked up and chuckled.
Yuusuke stood in his usual mismatched green and orange jacket and blue jeans. Kurama personally thought the jacket should be used for target practice one day. Hiei evidently thought the same for Kurama saw that the blazer had been target practice.
Of the mud and leaves verity. Judging from Yuusuke's scowl Hiei was right to disappear- at least until Kurama calmed him down.
"Hello Yuusuke, have you had a good morning?" Kurama asked pleasantly Yuusuke only huffed and sat down across from him on the picnic table.
"No not really- Keiko dumped me, said I wasn't reliable enough." Yuusuke grumbled laying his head on his folded arms.
Kurama blinked- that was unexpected news. When Yuusuke had come back at sixteen the two had planned to get married- but this was the first he had heard of a brake up. Yuusuke had appeared joined at the hip to Keiko last he heard.
"I'm sorry to hear that Yuusuke…" Kurama murmured sympathetically. Yuusuke made a vague noise halfway between a grunt and an 'hmm'. Kurama turned and nodded to Hiei who had come back when he hadn't heard any yells for his head.
"What's wrong with him?" Hiei asked Kurama waving a hand at the unresponsive Yuusuke- who didn't seem to care that Hiei had gotten his blazer muddy.
"Apparently she dumped him…" Kurama answered for Yuusuke. Hiei narrowed his eyes glancing to Yuusuke then back to Kurama a question in his eyes.
"No Hiei- you can't harm her for this…" Kurama murmured even though he wished humans allowed this demon right. That if a to-be-bonded (or in human terms betrothed) pair couldn't part unless it was for something more then 'reliability'.
If they did part the injured pair's friends- in this case Yuusuke- could get revenge, even if Yuusuke disagreed- it was their right. If Hiei or he attempted revenge- which could range from pranks to killing one of Keiko's own precious ones, they could be arrested in human world.
Not that they couldn't escape it- but that would only cause problems for Yuusuke and perhaps Kurama if word got out of his identity and to his family. So Hiei and he could do nothing.
Yuusuke sighed and ran a hand though his hair. Kurama and Hiei glanced at each other once again. Perhaps they could take him to Genkai- or just get him out of human world to help him forget, if only for a little while.
"Well how is Kuwabara doing?" Yuusuke asked as he hadn't seen the tall red head in a long while. Yet Kurama and Kuwabara had seemed to become better friends over the years.
"He is doing well in High School, just about ready to graduate." Kurama said realizing Yuusuke wanted to change the subject.
Yuusuke winced looking down slightly remembering that he had dropped out in favor of trying to show Keiko that he could support her.
"I heard they were taking final exams today- so I guess Kuwabara couldn't make it." Yuusuke muttered so quietly that if Kurama and Hiei hadn't been demons they wouldn't have heard him.
"Already?" Kurama asked startled not by the information but the bitterness in Yuusuke's tone. After all the teen had practically thrown away his future for her, while she had gone on in education.
"Yap…" Yuusuke said glancing at Hiei who he could have sworn had just made a face. Hiei simply blinked at him, Yuusuke could tell he was almost smirking.
"How disappointing." Hiei said sarcastically, both to break the silence and to make it clear that he hadn't been looking foreword to seeing Kuwabara. Not to mention he wanted to distract Yuusuke from falling into another bout of depression.
Or at least make the teen realize there were other things to live for- as like they if human world didn't work out Yuusuke could become a demon lord in Ma-Kai.
"Shut up Hiei- education is good for some people…anyway what have you been up to Kurama?" Yuusuke said supportive of Kuwabara even when he himself hadn't made the best decisions yet seeking to change the subject all the same.
"My fathers business is doing well, he has managed to hire more people on." Kurama confided a small smile playing on his lips. Yuusuke chuckled guessing at what Kurama was implying.
"I see, so you're starting to get bored again, eh?" Yuusuke inquired with a small smirk knowing what his friends were trying to do. He had to admit though he did miss the adventures they used to have.
"Yes, but it isn't anything that can't be solved with a quick trip to Ma-Kai…" Kurama stated softly glancing between his two friends. Hiei was smirking a little more and Yuusuke looked on the verge of braking into peals of laughter.
"You read my mind Kurama." Yuusuke said simply ending Kurama's little game of cat and mouse in going or not going to Ma-Kai. Kurama chuckled shaking his head and glancing at Hiei. Hiei nodded just a little telling Kurama that he had made sure the way to Ma-Kai was open for them.
"It will be amusing to see your reaction to how much Ma-Kai has changed sense you last visited." Kurama announced softly rising form the park table Hiei shook his head in amusement at the kitsune's words.
"Sure- whatever you say." Yuusuke muttered doubtfully, it was then easy to get Yuusuke into Mai-Kai, as after that he didn't truly protest. Kurama was right though he was amazed at how much had changed.
For one thing the walls were made of metal – not stone and there were lights and judging form Kurama's and Hiei's expressions they were as amazed as he was. Which was good, because he for one had no idea where this was- or what had gone wrong with going to Mai-Kai.
"Looks like were not in Kansas anymore, Toto." Yusuke muttered quoting 'Wizard of Oz' which made Hiei raise an eyebrow- probably wondering if he had hit his head. Kurama merely shook his head confused and a little irritated which for anyone who knew kitsune's- or this one in particular knew it was a very bad thing when one got angry.
"No, but welcome aboard. I am Data, what are your names and species of origin?"
It appeared they had missed something, and then again it was pale, had no heart beat- or sent, and was staring at them, very oddly. That might be due to the fact that Hiei's third eye was showing.
Opps…
TBC…
