Botan briefed Yusuke more on the case of Hiei on the roof of his school when Kuwabara barged in on top of the roof. Yusuke demanded, "Kuwabara, what the hell are you doing here?"

He explained, "I want to know what your first case was. When does it start?"

"Already has," Yusuke replied.

Kuwabara asked, "What is it?"

Botan explained, "You can't interfere no matter what. Before you had no idea what Yusuke was up to."

Kuwabara crossed his arm and replied, "I don't want to interfere. I just want to know what it is!" He stared at Yusuke.

"I think we should tell him," he said, "I have to fight Hiei next."

Kuwabara asked, "What? I want to see that, who won before?"

He answered, "Me."

Kuwabara shouted, "Alright, now I have to see that. You won against Hiei? I don't believe it!"

Keiko walked onto the roof and looked for Yusuke. She said, "Yusuke!"

Yusuke rolled his eyes and said, "Great."

"There you are," she said, "When does all of that detective stuff start to happen?"

He answered, "Later."

Kuwabara said, "You just said-"

Yusuke waved him off and explained, "It starts a few months from now is exactly what I just said to you. Weren't you listening?"

Botan put her fingers over her lips when Keiko wasn't looking. Kuwabara nodded and understood.

Keiko asked, "Why's Kuwabara up here?"

Yusuke replied, "That doesn't matter right now, okay? We have to do everything the same remember? You didn't know about the detective stuff until later." He looked over at Botan who was giving the fakest smile ever.

Keiko looked at all three of them and said, "Fine." Then walked back into the school.

Yusuke looked at Botan and said, "Alright Botan let's go."

She asked, "Why? We didn't follow her before."

Yusuke said, "Hiei kidnaps her, remember?"

"He does what?" Kuwabara asked, completely shocked.

Yusuke said, "Come on!"


Keiko started to walk home from school when Hiei showed up in front of her. She stopped in her tracks and asked, "Hiei? What are you doing here?"

Hiei replied, "You needn't worry, Keiko. He likes you well enough." He used his superspeed and cuts her with the shadow sword. She fell to the ground dramatically.

Yusuke shouted, "What the hell, you could have at least caught her!"

Hiei turned around and saw Yusuke, Botan, and Kuwabara behind him. He said, "I didn't catch her before. What are you doing here?"

"Seeing how the hell you kidnapped her," Yusuke replied, "She sure didn't make it hard."

Kuwabara asked, "You really kidnapped Keiko, what's wrong with you?"

Yusuke glared at him and said, "Alright Hiei, let's go." He got ready to fight.

Botan just in front of him and said, "You can't! The fight has to take place at the same time and place as before or else everything will change later!"

Yusuke stopped and said, "Dammit."

Hiei said smugly, "That's right, leave while you can."

"Shut up you know I beat you later!" Yusuke retorted.

Hiei replied, "That's later, this is now."

Botan stood between them and said, "Yusuke come on."


Yusuke came back at sundown with Botan and Kuwabara to Hiei's lair in a storage shed near the water. He busted through the door and shouted, "Alright we're back!"

Kuwabara looked at all of the hypontized humans and asked, "Who are all of those people?"

Hiei came out from behind the crowd and replied, "I rounded them up this morning with my jagan," he looked at Kuwabara and asked, "Why are you still here?"

"I want to watch the fight, okay? I'm not getting involved," he answered.

Yusuke said, "Right. Wait a minute, does this mean Kurama has to get stabbed again?" He looked at Botan for an answer.

She answered, "Since it's an integral part of the fight, yes."

"You stabbed Kurama!" Kuwabara shouted, "I thought he was your friend, Hiei!"

Hiei asked hostily, "Do I have to listen to you talk the whole time or can I cut out your toung now?" He leveled his sword.

Botan said, "You can't do that, Hiei, he wasn't here before."

Hiei put his sword down and said, "Fine, here's Keiko."

Yusuke asked nervously, "You gave her one of those demon third eyes, didn't you?"

Hiei replied, "What do you think?"

Kuwabara said, "Man you really were evil before we met."

Yusuke demanded, "Just give me the antidote in the sword and I won't knock you out this time."

Botan explained, "He can't do that! You have to defeat him the same way you did before! I'll try to stop her from transforming." She walked over to Keiko's body as her jagan eye started to open.

Yusuke charged at Hiei but Hiei stepped to the side at the last moment. Yusuke said, "Dammit I'm so weak I can't track your movement anymore!"

Hiei said, "You couldn't before. I can't believe I have to lose to you now. Don't think I'll make it easy!" He jumps again to attack Yusuke. Yusuke manages to punch Hiei out of mid-air and knocks him into a box.

Kuwabara shouted, "Alright, you made contact!"

Yusuke said, "Would you shut up? Having you as a cheerleader is way too weird."

Hiei stood up and said, "Hn." Then transformed into his green skinned self.

Kuwabara said, "Ew, don't tell me that's what you really look like."

Hiei replied, "Quiet fool. This is the form my jagan gives me."

"It is ugly," Yusuke admitted, "I can see why you don't change into it again."

Hiei proceeded to punched Yusuke and then tie him up in the red ties he can create.

"Like I said before," Yusuke explained, "you should change them to green ones. It'll look a lot better with my outfit."

Hiei said, "I know you win at the end of this but hearing you talk still annoys me." He smased him into the ground and said, "How about I give you a choice, either you die a human or I turn you into a demon." He grabbed his sword and pointed at Yusuke while saying, "Quite ironic considering you already are a demon and we just didn't know it yet."

Kuwabara shouted frantically, "Urameshi I thought you said you won!"

"Not right away," he replied, "Do it Hiei!" Hiei ran to Yusuke only to stab Kurama in the gut, just like before.

Kuwabara asked, "Did you really did stab Kurama? Where did you come from anyway?"

Hiei looked at Kurama as he cut himself on the sword. Hiei begged, "Don't you dare."

Kurama replied, "I have to Hiei." He threw his blood into his jagan eye. This made Hiei drop the sword and back up while covering his eyes.

Yusuke stood up and said, "Alright, now for the turning point. You okay Kurama?"

Kurama leaned over and replied, "I'm fine. I'll stop Keiko from transforming."

Kuwabara asked, "You mean to tell me all I have to do is throw something in Hiei's freaky eye and I'll win?"

Hiei replied, "If you ever get close enough do that I'll cut off your arm."

Yusuke shouted, "The fights not over yet. Bring it on, Hiei!" He proceeded to punch Yusuke into the wall. He confessed, "I forgot how much that hurt."

Kuwabara asked, "When do you win?"

"Would you shut up?" Yusuke demanded. He started running along the wall and then blast his spirit gun at Hiei while he dodged it.

Kuwabara said, "You just wasted your only shot!"

Yusuke replied, "Wait for it!" The blast then hit Hiei in the back and caused him to pass out.

"Wait," Kuwabara said, "what just happened?"

Yusuke replied happily, "Forlorn hope is what just happened!"

Kurama shouted, "Yusuke, get the sword!"

"Right!" he said, grabbing it.


Back on the roof of the school...

Kuwabara asked, "So all of that happened and I didn't even know!"

"You got that right," Yusuke replied.

Kuwabara asked, "What happened to Hiei anyway, you just kind of left him there."

Botan explained, "Oh, right, I was supposed to take him to Spirit World. I forgot about that back then, so yeah."

"You mean you just left him there before?" Yusuke asked.

"Yes," she replied, "oh well, might as well do the same."

Yusuke said, "Wait a minute, since Grandma wasn't there when I wished to live through all of this again does that mean-" He stopped in his tracks.

Botan finished, "She'll have no idea who you are."

Yusuke shouted, "Dammit!"

Kuwabara said, "That means you have to go through her evil bootcamp all over again Urameshi!" He started laughing at him.

"What the hell!" he shouted.
