I DO NOT OWN YU YU HAKUSH OOR HARRY POTTER!!
"What!?" She turned her saphire blue eyes on her father and knitted her eyebrows together. "What is he talking about?" she asked completely confused.
Her father sighed before he ran his hand through his dark hair again and answered in a regretfull tone.
"Beth, I am the king of Makai, making you the princess. That is why those demons were bowing to me when we first arrived." he explained.
Beth stood there for a moment, wide eyes and frozen, looking to her father, who knitted his eyebrows. From behind her, Kurama placed his hand on her shoulder and she jumped, looking to him before looking back to her father with knitted eyebrows.
"Why didnt you tell me? Does mom know?"
Her father sighed before he answered. "She does not"
"So you put her life in danger, extream danger, for being a demon, but you didnt seem it important to tell her that the reason there was so much danger, more than normal as you have told us before, was because your the king of Makai!?"
"Beth.."
"Kurama, dont! This is between my father and I"
Kurama's eyes widened in suprise but he nodded and took a step back. Beth looked back to her father and closed her eyes before looking at Koenma.
"You have known the entire time, so why is it that you want my services now rather than any time before? What is it about this point in time that makes my presence important?"
"Hn"
Everyone turned to glare at Hiei, when Koenma spoke up averting everyones attention back to him.
Koenma nodded appreciativly at Beth before speaking. "I didnt think you would notice, but you are very intelligent and you have" he sighed before sontinuing. "The laws of the Makai, state the the first born son of a Makai king and or queen will take over as ruler once they have passed. Your father did not bear a son, but two daughters."
Beth's eyes widened and she looked at her father again. She opened her mouth to say something but Koenma cut her off and continued with his explination.
"The laws state nothing different for a daughter taking over the thrown, but they do say something different of a half demon taking over the thrown."
Beth was taken back and replied in a confused tone.
"Wh.. what?"
"The laws state that the first born son, or eldest child will take the thrown, but they may not do so if they are anything more than a full bred demon."
"Thats why I live in the human world"
"Yes it is. When you were born, the royal counsil deliberated, and deicided that in order to keep to tradition and not break the law, you could not even be within demon world. Instead, they demanded you be banned, or your father was to forfiet the thrown. Your mother didnt want him to give up the thrown, so instead she chose to take over care of you in the human world. Your father reigned for eight years, before he moved to the human world to help raise you once your powers started to appear."
"And to coexsist in the human world my powers had to be supressed."
"Yes"
"But that still doesnt explain why it is you need me now."
"You are right, it does not. While your father reigned in demon world, the counsil demanded that he try and produce another hier, one that is either a son, or a purblood demon. With the threat of war not far off at the time, and a fear of losing his people, your father conceeded the counsils wishes and produced another child with a pure blood demon woman. Again, he produced a daughter."
Beth's eyes widened and she took a step back. "I have a sister?"
"A half sister, yes"
She looked to her father with knitted eyebrows and shook her head, trying to clear her mind. "I cant believe this"
"It is a lot of information to take in at one time" Koenma agreed before continuing. "Your sister is a full blood demon, but she is a half breed also. She is half air demon, half wolf demon. The counsil once again did not approve, but because she had no human blood in her viens, they could not bann her like they wished to. Instead, your father made a wife of her mother to rule while he moved to the human world with you and your mother."
"You married her!? What about mom!?"
"Beth, please understand. It was a necessity at the time"
"Your lucky mom doesnt know about this! She'd kill you!"
Her father smirked and nodded, replying in an amused tone. "She would deffinatly try. That I have no doubts of"
"How can you find this amusing?"
"Please, Beth. If I may continue?"
Beth shook her head and sighed before looking to Koenma and motioning for him to continue. He nodded in return before speaking.
"The counsil has died, many were much older than thier species allowed, and they have all passed onto the next life, leaving a new counsil behind. Thier sons and daughters have taken over, and they have a completely differnt outlook on life. They have heard of your story since they were born, and have had years to develope thier own feelings on the issue at hand. They believe that the laws should be changed, that the you should have the rights to the throne, as you deserve by being the first born child of the king."
Beth's mouth was hanging open and her eyes were wide once again. Her father put his hand on her shoulder and she closed her mouth, shaking her head once again. She looked to him worried and she smiled an encouraging smile before she spoke weakly.
"You.. they.. want me to be.. the ruler of makai?"
"Not exactly. They want you to have the ability to chose whether you take over after your father passes or not."
"Beth, you have to breath, hunny"
Beth nodded and took a few deep breaths before looking at Yusuke when he spoke.
"I understand what you might be feeling. I had something similar happen to me, and it was a lot to get used to, or take in for that matter, but its not terrible"
"You too?"
"Yes"
"What did you do?"
"I followed, trained, and left. I have yet to fully make my decision, but I will follow my instincts in whichever direction they take me"
Beth nodded and looked back to her father, who spoke softly.
"It is something that should have been explained long ago, but it was something that I never imagined would happen. I am truly sorry"
"Its ok dad, I understand why you didnt"
"Elizabeth" Beth looked back to Koenma once he said her name. "Wether you decide to or not is your decision, but you must meet with the counsil and at least hear them out, explain what has happened to you and if you think you are ready to.."
Keonma's sentence was cut off by a loud alarm going off in the hallway. Everyone turned and looked at the door once it burst open and a large blue ogre came bounding in the room. Koenma instantly stood and spoke in an alarmingly strict and formal tone.
"What is the problem ogre!?"
"Sir! The princess has completely dissapeared! We have no trace of her anywhere!"
PLEASE REVIEW!! GREATLY APPRECIATED!
