Chapter 2: Interrogation

"Are they---following us---any more?" Kuwabara gasped.

Kurama stopped just in front of the well. "No. I believe Yusuke's Spirit Gun confused them."

"That's right! Yusuke saves the day!" Boasted Yusuke.

"I didn't see you capturing the demon, Detective." Hiei stated mockingly.

"Yeah, well, I could have if I wanted to."

"Hn."

Kurama sat Inuyasha against the well. "Now Yusuke, contact Botan so she can re-open the portal to Ningenkai."

"Ano...do what now?" The brown-eyed teen scratched the back of his head, confusion evident on his face.

"Contact Botan on the com-link."

"Oh right, that thing." Yusuke searched his pockets. "Ha ha ha, funny thing actually, I left it in my other jacket."

"You...don't have it?"

"Nope!"

"Urameshi! Weren't you listening to Botan! She told you to call her when we were done!"

"Ha, guess I wasn't paying attention right then."

"Urameshi no baka!" Screamed Kuwabara. "What are we supposed to do when those guys catch up with us?"

"Well,...you could create a distraction."

"URAMESHI!"

Kurama took a deep, calming breath. "Maybe Botan left the portal open, I'll see if I can pass through." Kurama slung Inuyasha over his shoulder, jumped into the well and disappeared.

--

"Oh, Kurama? Back so soon?" The boys had only been gone for about 45 minutes.

"Yes, the demon was fairly easy to catch."

"Oh good...um, Kurama? Where are the others?" The blue-haired fairy-girl asked, looking around the shrine.

"Get off me Kuwabara!" Screamed Yusuke.

Hiei stood at the far side of the well, a smirk on his face. "Killing each other, we should leave them alone."

Kurama chuckled, "By the way Botan, I'm glad you left the portal open, Yusuke forgot his communicator."

"I left it open? Oh well, I guess there are some good mistakes."

The sound of vicious pounding rose from the well.

Botan sighed, "Boys, boys! Stop it! The mission is over! Go home!"

Yusuke jumped out of the well, shoved his hands into his pockets, and left muttering some very colorful words. Kuwabara followed shortly after looking, well, beaten.

"I wonder what their problem is, they've been like this for the past week." Botan whipped out her oar. "Oh well, time to get back to Koenma-sama."

Kurama and Hiei began to leave.

"Oh, Kurama?"

"Yes Botan?"

"I was hoping you could help me deliver the demon to Spirit world; I'm sure Koenma-sama would like to hear about the mission."

Hiei snickered, Kurama could get tied into anything. Enjoy yourself Kitsune.

Polite as he was Kurama replied, "Of course Botan."

The hanyou was put in a cage in Koenma's office to be questioned. Kurama was told to stay in case it awoke. Inuyasha slept for over two hours, and Kurama was just beginning to fall asleep himself when Inuyasha awoke.

"What the-? What happened? Where's Kagome?" Inuyasha looked around in a panic.

"Demon." Koenma addressed Inuyasha, "For what purpose were you in the Ningenkai earlier today?"

"Why do you need to know? Get me out of here you little brat!" Inuyasha grabbed onto the bars of his cage, trying to look threatening.

George the Ogre was appalled, "Speak respectfully to Koenma-sama!"

Inuyasha went for his sword. It wasn't there.

"Hey, what did you do with my Tetsusaiga!"

"Your weapon has been entrusted to Kurama." Koenma replied. In truth Kurama had been the only one who could touch the sword, thus he was dragged into a day of work.

Inuyasha looked over at the red-head who held his sword and growled, "Iron reaver soul stealer!" His claws clanked uselessly against the bars.

Koenma smirked, "Your attacks are useless. This is a special cage that applies just as much force as is needed to contain its prisoner. It is suited to contain even an S-class demon. No matter how hard you strike it, it will not break. One of my better ideas actually. Now, let's get down to business. What is your name Demon?"

Inuyasha sat back and growled.

Kurama laughed, "Reminds you a bit of Hiei, doesn't he?"

Koenma sighed, "And that could be a problem. Demon, you are going to stay in there until I have my information. I would suggest you cooperate."

"I'd like to see you make me. Now where's Kagome?"

"Kurama? Were there others with this demon?"

"Yes, he must not be as hostile as you suspected, he was with a group of five others."

"Demons?"

"Only two of them."

"So he was not harming the humans?"

"No. In fact it seems that they get along. They were...reluctant to let me take him."

"What did you do to Kagome? If you hurt her I'll--"

"Kurama, was anyone injured?"

"Hiei and I had to defend ourselves against a two-tailed neko, but it was not seriously injured."

"Kirara..."

"There you are Demon. Now what is your name?"

"Why do you want to know so badly?"

Kurama stood up, "Koenma."

"Yes Kurama?"

"May I try speaking with him?"

"Do as you please."

Kurama walked over to Inuyasha. "You are a hanyou, are you not?"

Inuyasha was clearly shocked. "So what if I am?"

"You are only here because you were seen in Ningenkai. If you cooperate you will be returned to your friends. Your name would help."

"So if I tell you and the brat over there my name you'll let me go?"

"No. If you tell us your name, where you are from, for what purpose you were in Ningenkai and if you have no hostile intentions, then you will be free to go."

"...Inuyasha."

"And the reason you were in Ningenkai?"

"Kagome."

"What did you need to get her for?"

"That wasn't one of the questions."

"That's true. Where are you from?"

"The other side of the well."

Koenma and George looked confused.

"Koenma-sama, is Kurama getting any useful information?"

"Honestly? I can't tell."

"Koenma."

"Yes Kurama?"

"His name is Inuyasha. I believe one of the humans owns the shrine that the well is in, most likely the Kagome he keeps talking about. He appears to have no hostile intentions."

"I see...yet the fact that he can transport between Ningenkai and this other world is not comforting. Kurama, I have a new mission for you."
