Chapter 1: Mission

"I'm a red neck sweater," Alexia sang.

"I ain't no high class fabric," Angel continued.

"I'm just a product of my maker and I say 'Hey y'all put me on,'" they sang together. "And I keep my master warm on those winter cold nights. And I know all the ways to keep-"

"What are you singing?" Kuwabara said coming into the room.

"AHHH! GET OUT YOU IDIOT! THIS IS MY ROOM!" Alexia yelled as she threw her pillow at him. It hit him square in the face and fell in front of Angel.

"Growdy! You're going to need some strong disinfectant for that."

Kuwabara turned to her. "What's that supposed to mean?"

Angel shrugged her shoulders. "Just the way it sounds."

"Is that supposed to be something mean or something evil?"

"Knowing her," Alexia said behind Angel's shoulders, "she meant it as something bad."

Kuwabara scratched his head. Alexia was annoyed at his stupidity and decided to take out the problem.

"GET OUT NOW!" she said leaping at Kuwabara. He only had two seconds to try to run, but he was unsuccessful.

"Alexia! Stop trying to kill him! That looks so wrong!"

Alexia was atop Kuwabara trying to strangle him. She stopped and looked at her cousin. "Oh, yeah, it's good."
"ALEXIA!" Angel covered her ears, but her screams had caused the others to come into the room. They won't be able to be alone for long.

"Who yelled?" Yusuke asked, only to see the scene before him: Kuwabara being strangled with Alexia on top of him and Angel covering he ears and keeping her eyes closed. "What did you do?"

"Who are you asking?" Alexia asked. She looked down at Kuwabara after he grunted. In a second, she was off him and smiling innocently. Angel glared at her behind her back.

"Anyone! What the hell happened?"

"She started it!" Angel and Alexia said pointing to each other.

"Quit that!" Angel said.

"No, you quit that!"

"Stop it! You're going to drive everyone insane!"

Angel saluted them. "That's our job!" they said together.

Kurama looked at Yusuke. "If I didn't know any better, I'd think that maybe they're both twins."

"Why's that?" they asked together, again.

"That's why."

Angel looked to Alexia, and Alexia blinked. "WHY THE HECK IS EVERYONE IN MY ROOM? OUT, OUT, OUT!"

"Oww! My ears! Would you stop screaming! I'm sure the neighbors are not too happy that they have a banshee living in their apartment!" Angel said.

"I agree with Angel," Yusuke said.

"Indeed, stop screaming or I'll tear you limb from limb," Hiei said threateningly.

Alexia leaped over to Yusuke and grabbed his arm. "Mommy Yusuke! Aunt Hiei is threatening me!" She stopped and looked at his arm. "Gross . . . Why am I hugging your arm?"

"I don't know, now let go!" Yusuke said pulling his arm away from her.

Just then, a white puff of smoke appeared in front of them. Angel started gagging, mostly because her sensitive nose can't take it, and Alexia just stared. Out of nowhere, Teenage Koenma came.

"AHH! ANOTHER IDIOT IN MY ROOM!" Alexia yelled.

"Must you?" Koenma asked rubbing his ear.

"Yes," Alexia said crossing her arms.

Koenma ignored her comment and looked to Yusuke. "I have another assignment."

"What?" Kurama said.

"We just finished your last assignment four hours ago," Hiei said.

"Do you really expect us to fight that well?" Yusuke asked.

"Yeah!" Kuwabara inquired.

Angel and Alexia looked to one another. They had left the well and headed right towards Yusuke's apartment. There, he had given them the spare rooms (wherever they had come from) and had told them not to yell too much. Luckily, Alexia had only yelled when Kuwabara had come in. Other than that, it seemed that they had never existed.

During these four hours, Angel and Alexia were deep in thought. Alexia kept going on about the past while Angel thought of the future and the effect it would have on them. They both had agreed that there would only be more doom and death to follow them. As a result, they tried thinking of cheery songs, by use of the favorite songs, and making a completely new song.

"Fine, I'll give you until tomorrow morning to start the mission," Koenma said. "But there is something I also need to finish before that."

Alexia blinked. Thoughts swirled in her head of what that could, or might, mean. She was about to say her comment when she caught a glimpse of Angel's threatening glare. "And what would that be?" Alexia asked without looking away from Angel.

"Your names."

"What!" they said together again.

"What's wrong with my name? I like it, thank you very much!" Angel said.

"Really!" Alexia said.

"I'm sorry, but now that you're demons, you can't carry your human names anymore. If you do, then it would cause quite a bit of confusion in the Spirit and Demon World," Koenma explained.

"It does seem to make sense," Kurama agreed.

Angel sighed as she stood up. "Fine, fine. Tell me this horrid name that I'm sure to despise as life goes on."

"What was that?" Yusuke asked.

"Rambling. Consider it the ramblings of an unknown ally."

"Since when did you talk like that?" Alexia asked, realizing that her words weren't usual.

Angel shrugged. "Since I learned that I can." Alexia didn't really react to this; she just stared at her cousin.

"In that case, Angel, you will be referred to as Leanna."

"Leanna, huh? Not too bad . . ."

"Me! Me! What am I?" Alexia asked.

"Keladay."

"What did you say?" Leanna asked. She vividly remembered accidentally calling Alexia something by a name that sounded something like that.

"I said Keladay," Koenma replied. "Is there something wrong with that name?"

The name was very familiar in her mind, but where had it come from? "I thought I had heard it from somewhere."

"Ah. Anyway, rest up for your mission," Koenma stared walking away. "Oh, wait," he said suddenly stopping, "the two of you will have to fight one of the spirit detectives."

"Are you insane!" Keladay said. "Why didn't you tell me I was going to die young!" she asked her cousin.

"Only the good die young," Leanna replied to Keladay. "Fine then, I'll fight anyone you want me to!"

"Hold on a second!" Keladay said as she walked in front of Leanna. "We barely know how to fight! Tsuki didn't really teach us as much as we should know and Aris wasn't really much of a help, let alone Ken'oshi and Sifa did nothing!"

"Who gives a damn? So what if you don't win, its not like they're going to kill us as a result of that."

"You never know! For all I know, they're probably here to-"

"Don't make me rip out your vocal cords!" Leanna cut her off before she could say anymore of her comment.

"Okay, okay! I'm sorry! I shan't udder another sound from whence the sound of thou's voice comes."

Leanna's eye twitched. "Where did you learn that?"

"You."

"When did I say anything like that?" she asked as her eye twitched again.

"Your diary."

"You read my diary!"

"Once or twice . . ."

Leanna shook her head and sighed.

"Very nice . . . Can we just get this over with?" Yusuke said.

"I don't want to die young!" Keladay complained.

"Tell me who to fight and I'll fight," Leanna said.

Hiei stepped forward. "I'll fight you," he said to Leanna.

"Hiei! You don't fight girls," Kuwabara said, "it's unfair for them."

"Excuse me!" Leanna and Keladay said together.

"Koenma already stated that we're to fight them," Kurama said. "If neither you nor Yusuke are going to fight Keladay, then I will."

"Then its settled," Koenma said. "Fight somewhere where no innocent humans will be harmed."

"Innocent?" Keladay said. "Right . . . I'm sure half the world's population has already done it!"

Everyone fell to the ground.

"Its true!"


WindEmpress: This is going to be the longer one, I promise. And there will be a bit of blood-shed in the next chapter. This is where things get really intersting.
