Disclaimer: I don't own Yuyu Hakusho and Flame of Recca. But thanks to them, I found an ideal love triangle namely, Kurama Minamino, Yumi Urameshi (Botan) and Tokiya Mikagami. ^_^. This is not my first fanfic for Kuratan couple but this is my first try publishing my story. Enjoy reading. And don't forget to leave a review. Please be gentle, hehehe, but all are accepted. I humbly ask for your comments, suggestions and ideas too to make the story more worth reading.

Bear with me guys. Now onto the story. _

CHAPTER I: KOENMA'S REVELATION

"You have a twin sister Yusuke," said Koenma in his teenage form with utter seriousness in his voice and total sincerity in his eyes. But the Spirit Detective, Yusuke Urameshi just stares at the young ruler with his mocking eyes saying "Don't give me that damn piece of shit!"

"But I'm telling you the truth, you really have Yus-," the Young Ruler couldn't continue anymore what he's saying for the Spirit Detective had him pinned on the wall already.

"16 years I'm living all alone in Ningenkai without my real parents, now you're telling me this piece of shit," shouted the almond-eyed detective, anger is evident in his eyes.

Koenma wasn't startled at all. He just shoves Yusuke's hand on his neck.

"Yes Yusuke, you have a sister. Your mother gave both of you away when you were three. You were left in Nengenkai and Yumi was left here in Rekai. She didn't want you to experience life with blood-shed wars in Makai though your father is against this she still insisted for the sake of their children. But destiny is destiny Yusuke. Destiny will let you and Yumi meet. You are both destined to fulfill your duties as beings with Makai blood running into your veins."

Yusuke couldn't speak at all. He has a twin sister for goodness sake!

"Yumi? Is that her name?"

Koenma nods his head as a reply.

"Where is she?" Yusuke asked with complete excitement in his tone. Happiness in him couldn't be hidden anymore.

Koenema smiled. He should know now. I think it's the best time for both of them.

"She's-," then a knock was heard. Koenma was interrupted. Yusuke slightly dismayed. He wanted to punch the face of the one who knocked the door.

"Come in," said Koenma, with a hint of command in his voice.

"Yahoo! Good morning!" greeted the azure-haired, lilac-eyed ferry girl in her usual cheerful voice.

"Oh Botan, it's only you!" said Yusuke, while combing his hand on his hair, a sign of irritation.

"What do you mean it's only me?" replied Botan with pouted lips, her hands on her waist.

It's a sign said Koenma. They are both here.

"Botan-," Yusuke.

"Yusuke, you want to know where she is?" cut Koenma. Yusuke nodded with earnest sincerity in his eyes. To his full surprise, Koenma's gaze shifted intently to Botan. Yusuke looks at Botan too.

Botan sweat drops. "Did I do something wrong?" Nobody answers. With questioning eyes, Yusuke turns his head to Koenma. Koenma nodded. Yusuke's question was answered.

"No it can't be!" Yusuke kneels down with watery eyes. Botan run to his side. She put her hands in his shoulder.

"Yusuke, what's wrong?" with her eyes and voice full of concern. Yusuke snaps out, lifts his head and meets Botan's gaze.

"Botan you are-," Koenma was about to confess.

"Gomen, gomen, gomenne Yumi," tears fell down from Yusuke's eyes. Longing and hatred are the emotions emerging in his heart. Longing, for he has now his long lost sister and hatred towards himself for not protecting his own sister when Yakumo tried to kill her and let other man do his role.

"Yusuke what's the matter? Please tell me." Yusuke is hugging Botan now. Botan, without knowing what's really going on, instantly wrapped Yusuke in a warm, tight and comforting embrace.

"It's okay. Cry it all Yusuke." Botan with her easing voice pats Yusuke's head.

"Botan." Finally Koenma speaks. "Or should I say Yumi, you are Yusuke's twin sister.

Botan, with the sudden revelation of Koenma, removes her trembling hands from Yusuke's shoulder. She buried her face on her hands and she too is starting to cry.

Then realization hits Yusuke. It is far harder to Botan than to him. Living all alone in Rekai, ferrying souls and nothing but death. Yusuke cursed silently.

"Yumi, I miss you dear sister." Yusuke whispered sweetly to Yumi.

"Onii-chan." Yumi hugs her brother with longing and love.
