Chapter 2
Disclaimer: Thank you for the comments so far. Remember, if you don't like the story, don't read it. Keep your criticisms nice and clean so that everyone can read them without getting offended in any way. Yes, I will try to put more focus on the other characters, but the main character Shina Ottawa. So, this is her story. Enjoy!
"Devil child?" Everyone shouted out loud as they turned and looked back at Shina. Shina shuddered a little as Keiko rushed through the hallway.
"..Yusuke! Yusuke! Why weren't you in school today?!" Keiko shouted as she then ran into the room and saw Shina. Keiko's eyes widened.
"..What happened?! Let me go call a doctor!" Keiko was about to call an ambulance until Yusuke caught her hand. He smiled in his cool like way as he then replied.
"No need to, Keiko. She's fine. She wasn't born here so I'm sure she will be able to heal much faster than we can."
"..Your wrong. I am just like everyone else, but I have trained myself to not feel as much pain. I am just as fragile as you are Yusuke." Shina replied as she slowly sat up and looked around the room. Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Kurama and Hiei. She knew they were demons by the color of their auras.
"…Yusuke, you do know you have demons in the room right?" Shina told Yusuke as she stretched a little.
"..How did you know they were demons?" Kuwabara asked as he scratched his head. He then turned and smiled at Keiko. "..Hey Keiko! What's going on?"
Keiko smiled. "I'm fine, just mad at Yusuke because he keeps missing class!"
Yusuke rubbed the back of his head as he then laughed nervously, but then went back to his normal composure. To the side of him, he had Puu on his shoulder as Puu made his usual sound. "Puuu.."
Shina raised an eyebrow as she looked everyone and then got up. Kurama looked at her and placed his hand to her shoulder.
"..Don't move. You are not completely healed yet. I suggest you rest for awhile." Shina gazed into Kurama's eyes as she didn't trust him. If Yusuke trusted them, then that was a different story.
"…I see…I will obey for now, but not for long. The portal to the demon world has been allowing demons to come in and out of this world. I have a method to close it forever, but I find that your friends, Yusuke, will be against that." Shina mentioned as she rubbed the back of her arm.
Hiei smirked for a moment while leaning against the wall. "Hn..just like every other human would say. I highly doubt Koenma would allow that. If you close that portal, there could be a disruption between the worlds. Even if you tried, demons will always find a way to come back. Humans will never be safe. "
Shina shook a little in anger when she heard his words. At that moment, Shina glared at Hiei as she placed her hand onto her sword. Her bangs came over her face as her gray eyes appeared cold as ice.
"..Then..I shall kill them all." She stood up as she walked toward the door while limping. She made it down the hallway and to the front door as Yusuke stopped her.
"..Whoa! Wait! There has to be another way. You're here now in the human world. Why go and destroy it when you don't have to deal with it anymore?" He waved his hands in front of her as she placed her hand onto the hilt of her sword.
"You don't get it do you? When demons want to kill something, they will continue to hunt for it until they are dead. I suggest you move..we have a visitor." She responded smoothly in a concise way.
At the front door, there was a black aura admitting from it as Shina unsheathed her sword. The door was opened as Kuwabara took out her spirit sword while Yusuke got his spirit gun ready. At the door, was a small sized demon with a pacifier in his mouth as Yusuke fell down with his legs up. Kuwabara then started to laugh.
"..Hey Yusuke, this little guy looks like Koenma!" Yusuke then looked up and started to laugh too. Shina looked at the demon as she placed her sword at it.
"..Are you guys really that stupid?!" The two boys turned and looked at it as they then gasped. The demon that looked like Koenma, turned out to be a huge troll like monster. He stood upon the door with a pacifier in his mouth as Shina jumped up and cut the demon in half.
"..Damn! More are coming! Damn them to hell! I will never be able to live a life in peace!" Shina shouted as she dashed off and punched four demons in the face. All of them fell down hard as she cracked her knuckles and then used her feet to knock them down by hitting their ankles. Four more demons came as they stood in front of her and did not attack. She knew something was wrong.
"….What's going on?" She thought to herself as a demon with elf like ears came to her. He had fangs and long straight blond hair. He gently took a bow as he wore a black robe like cape.
"…Shina, my lord…Raizen, has requested me to bring you to his palace." Shina raised an eyebrow as she looked at the mysterious demon. She wasn't sure if it was a prank or a stupid lie.
"…Do you actually expect me to believe you? Do you think that I will be able to trust something like you?" She told him as she took out brass knuckles from her ragged clothes. She came toward the demon with her sword and fist.
"…If you are truly lying, I will cut off your head as we speak." Shina's eyes narrowed as she gazed into his eyes in pure intensity. Kuwabara shook. "Jeeze, I never thought girls can be this scary!"
"Are you kidding me?! You should see Keiko when she's mad!" Yusuke laughed as Keiko punched him in the shoulder. Hiei and Kurama were watching the whole thing as Kurama began to think to himself.
"…Has Lord Raizen decided to kill Shina? Why has he invited to see her all of a sudden? Maybe it's to use her. Whatever the reason, it isn't good. I'm sure he will keep sending demons to come out and find her. Yusuke will not be able to survive in the demon world in his current state. Hiei and I can go.."
Shina then looked at the demon. "Give me one valid reason as to why he wishes to meet me."
The demon swallowed as he fixed his collar. Some beads of sweat ran down his back as he then nodded and replied, "Demon lord Raizen has fallen interested in your stories, Shina. He wishes to see if the stories are true."
Shina then smirked a little. "…Fine..I will go. While I am gone, do not allow anymore demons come into the human world. I will not accept it."
Hiei then stepped in, "I don't think that is your responsibility Shina. Go to Raizen."
Everyone turned and looked at Hiei. Usually he doesn't say much and everyone just stays clear away from him because he is mean-stricken. This time, it was different. It almost seemed like he was protecting her.
"..What has gotten into Hiei? Why is he so nice all of a sudden?" Kuwabara asked as he stepped forward and looked at Shina.
"…Becareful Shina! I don't like seeing girls being beaten up!" Shina smiled for the first time in several years.
"…I will. Thank you, Yusuke and Kuwabara." At that moment, Shina dashed off and came close to the demon portal. Before she went in, she decided to go to a store and get some better clothes and some supplies. She was tired of stealing and taking from others. For once, she bought something from a store by borrowing Yusuke's credit card. Well, at least he let her use it for emergencies.
"..Hey..where is my credit card?" Yusuke asked as his eyes widened.
"..Oh shit! Shina took it!" Kuwabara laughed. "You got jacked by a girl!" Yusuke hit him across his forehead as huge bump appeared.
"..Owe! That hurt!" Kuwabara whined as Keiko looked up at Yusuke. "I hope she will be okay."
Yusuke then smirked a little. "She will be fine. She is not like other women, that is for sure."
"..Yes…a woman of stupidity. She's walking in her own grave." Hiei mentioned as he walked upstairs.
"…Hiei…?" Yusuke watched as Hiei walked upstairs. He then shrugged his shoulders.
Meanwhile, Shina was wearing a different outfit. She was wearing dark green pants as they had many sacs and pockets with ties on them. She bought some real running shoes and she even got a chance to wash her hair and take a shower. She felt much better. Especially the fact she didn't have to bathe in a water fall and be worried about demons. On top of that, she bought a gray tank top. On the sides of her hips, she bought four guns, a pocket knife, pepper spray, and bow and arrow. She wasn't as advanced with weapons, but she knew how to use them pretty well. Even if they seemed like nothing special, she was always able to defeat her opponent. Even the time when she had a tea cup and a spoon; the results were not a pretty sight. After being completely situated with gear, Shina came toward the portal. She took out some rope from her backpack and rushed up the rope. She then came back to the demon world as a chill ran down her spine.
"..I hate this place..so damn much." She mumbled as she cracked her neck. "..Oh Raizen…here I come.."
