Chapter 6:

-Genkai's Temple-

Genkai sighed as she hung up the phone. A few old students had just called asking if she could train them and a few friends for an upcoming tournament. The old woman agreed and the conversation soon ended with a promise that they would arrive first thing tomorrow morning.

Genkai made her way towards the living room, where she could sense the spirit detectives were. Upon entering, the old psychic cleared her throat to get all the team's attention.

"Alright kiddes, I know Koenma asked you all to stay here, but I'm going to need you all out for the time being."

Yusuke gave his teacher a confused look, "What's going on, Grandma?"

"Nothing you should worry about, dimwit. I just got a call from some old students of mine that wish to train in preparation for a tournament." The psych replied.

"Did they say for which tournament?" Kurama asked.

"No, they did not."

"What're you thinking Kurama?" Kuwabara said, turning to the redhead fox.

"The only tournament I know will be going on anytime soon is the Dark Tournament in two months' time."

Yusuke groaned. "Another one?"

The fox nodded, "Yes. And I believe we were invited to this very tournament."

Both the half-demon and the younger psychic both groaned before shouting, "AGAIN?!"

Hiei huffed silently from his spot by the window, he wasn't exactly thrilled with having to go to the tournament either. But then the thought of Hoshi crossed his mind. Maybe she might be there.

-The next day: about 6 in the morning-

Genkai opened the front door to see the two previous students she was expecting, plus four others they had told her about, though two looked familiar, an 18-year-old boy with long red hair and a 16-year-old girl with ink black, blue outlined hair.

"What's up Genkai?" Ashley asked as she walked in. Saria waved and said hello as she entered.

The green-haired demoness bowed a little to the old psych, "It's an honor to meet you Genkai. I'm Yuna Hayashi."

The older woman nodded to her before looking at the last three, the little 5-year old looked like she was on a never-ending sugar rush. The oldest introduced himself, "Pleasure to make your acquaintance. I'm Yami Minamino," then he gestured to the little one he was holding back. "This young one is Kara." Then he pointed to the dark-haired girl behind him, who wore a bored expression. "And she's Hoshi Jaganshi."

This had taken Genkai by surprise, but she kept her outward appearance neutral. She turned to lead them all inside, "Please follow me rookies."

Genkai could of sworn that she heard Kara say, "Do you think she recognized your last names? They are like the guys'."

Hoshi shushed her, "Not here Kara. We're here to train, not play around." Kara huffed like the child she was as she crossed her arms.

Genkai had shown them all to their rooms and told them at she'd meet them in the back in an hour.

Everyone was getting settled in, except Hoshi, who could care less and decided to walk around and become accustomed to the grounds. She was walking by the kitchen when she heard a crash. Opening the door and rushing inside, the dark-haired girl was meet by a girl that looks about her age with mint blue hair, pale skin, and crimson eyes that matched her own.

The girl had been picking up broken shards of a few glasses, but the mint-haired girl had paused in her work when the door opened, expecting to see Genkai, but instead was met by a crimson stare that held a knife sharp edge.

Her eyes travelled up and down the taller girl, who did tower a bit over her 4'10 figure, though all the black clothing wasn't surprising. This was because Yukina had read her sister's file a few times as well and it mentioned that she preferred to wear black and occasionally other dark colors.

Hoshi held a hand out to the girl. Yukina smiled and took her hand, the older girl helped her up and brushed off her shoulders. Even though Yukina was wearing a kimono, she could feel the heat leave the girl's hands and seep into her skin as if she wasn't.

Hoshi took a step back and crossed her arms over her chest. Yukina took the opportunity to speak,

"Hello, you must be one of the fighters here to train under Genkai."

Hoshi simply nodded, her face neutral as it always was.

"My name's Yukina." The Ice Maiden fiddled with the hem of her sleeve behind her back. She was nervous about talking to this girl, she was a lot like Hiei but there was also something a bit off with her aura, like it was lower than it should be.

"Hoshi Jaganshi." The girl finally spoke up.

Yukina's eyes widened in shock, overjoy, and delight; she was talking to her SISTER! Unable to resist the urge, Yukina hugged the girl tightly around the torso and buried her face into her chest.

Hoshi froze in astonishment, she wasn't sure what to do, especially when the girl hugging her started crying into her jacket and shirt. Instinctively, she wrapped her arms around the smaller girl's shoulders and ran a calm hand through her hair to try and calm her down; this was a tricked she picked up by watching Yami doing it with Kara. Yukina soon calmed down and Hoshi had her sit on one of the stools surrounding the island in the middle of the kitchen while the fire girl got her a glass of water. Hoshi had even been nice enough to clean up the rest of the glass off the floor.

Setting down the glass of water in front of the ice girl, Hoshi took a seat right next to her. Yukina apologized for doing that, Hoshi shrugged and said that it was fine. The Ice Maiden began to explain herself and the fire girl froze and stared at her in disbelief when she mentioned that they were siblings.

"Wait. Wait. If we're siblings..." Hoshi said as she braced her arms against the counter top as her eyebrows creased in thought. "Then that would make Hiei my brother too."

Yukina nodded, but then she stopped and gave her a confused look, "How would you know that?"

Hoshi sweat dropped a bit, "Um... It's kind of hard to explain..."

So Hoshi spent the remainder of the hour explaining about the anime Yu Yu Hakusho and all the events and such, though there were parts she left out, like Hiei's past. That was for him to tell, not her. Yukina absorbed it all silently and in wonder. She asked questions here and there and Hoshi answered as best as she could.

When the hour was up, Yukina accompanied Hoshi to the training grounds Genkai had set up out back, and the others were already there. Yukina instantly told Genkai that she and Hoshi were sisters. The psych seemed amused and commented that Hoshi and Hiei acted a lot alike. Yuna, Saria and Ashley were surprised at the news, Kara ran up to Yukina and immediately started calling her "Auntie", and Yami had a knowing smirk on his face, again.

After the three shocked girls calmed down, Hoshi made everyone swear not to tell anyone else that they were siblings, or else... The threat was actually meant for the fox, but Hoshi didn't bother to point that out.

Then Genkai got everyone started on their training, except Yukina, who watched from the back porch with the young Kara sitting next to her.

This is gonna be an interesting two months for them.

-in the Minamino household-

Shiori was looking at an old photo album at the dining room table, there were only a few photos in it because they were all pictures of her first born; Yami was still really young when he was kidnapped. She smiled down at the photo where he was a curious two-year-old walking around with a star trooper helmet from Star Wars bopping around on his head while dressed in blue pants and a black t-shirt. (A/N: which I've actually done and I ran into Darth Vader that same day. *grins*)

She looked up when she heard the front door open, followed by Shuichi's voice seconds later.

"Mother, I'm home."

Shiori called back sweetly, "Welcome back, I'm in the dining room."

The redhead appeared from around the corner after a few moments, dressed in his cranberry uniform and a curious look came upon his face when he saw his human mother was looking at an old photo album. "What are you looking at mother?"

Shiori pulled the chair out next to her and gestured for her red-haired son to sit next to her.

It was about time that she told her son about his older brother.

~two months later~

Saria's nose furrowed in a disgusted manner at the god-awful smell of the nasty demons that were crowded on the ship her and her team were on, which was taking them to Hanging-Neck Island. She covered her nose with the hem of her sleeve; haven't these demons ever heard of personal hygiene?

She turned her attention to the young Kara who ran around close by them, playfully being chased by Yuna and occasionally herself, but now she was standing by the railing, watching as her best friend Ashley was talking to the tall, not to forget attractive fox demon Yami. Currently his outfit had changed to a white shirt and matching pants, a blue plane with yellow trim overtop, green sash around his waist and black shoes clad his feet; his long red hair still hung freely though. Ashley was wearing blue shorts, a white t-shirt under a green hoodie, black and blue sneakers, and her short black, blue-streaked hair ruffled in the breeze a bit; sometimes into her face and eyes, but she would simply brush them out of the way again.

Little Kara was in a cute light purple dress the had a yellow waist band and came down to just above her knees, purple and tan sandals clad her feet and she was currently sitting right before the forest maiden who was braiding her hair with a daisy here and there braided in. Yuna had changed her green and white dress for a pair of white sneakers, blue pants and a green t-shirt that said "Save the forest. Plant a tree." Hoshi sat up on the railing right by the two girls, her arms crossed over her chest and her sunglasses perched on top of her head. Yuna had managed to convince the fire-girl to let her not only French braid her hair, but to wear colors other than black! She was currently dressed in black boots, black pants, but also a dark violet long sleeved shirt which hid most of the bandage on her right arm, and a white scarf around her neck. Saria, herself, was clad in a light pink t-shirt with a grey hoodie over top, blue shorts like her best friend, and pink and white sneakers.

A speaker came on and got everyone's attention; it told them that they would be having a preliminary round right there on the boat, to decide which would be the official guest team.

"Why would they do something like this here?" Yuna asked. "What's the point?"

"Hn. It's to be expected, since we can't go anywhere now." Hoshi sighed in a bored manner.

"Well aren't you just a little ray of sunshine." Ashley said sarcastically.

Hoshi crossed her arms behind her head and closed her eyes. "Being cheery's never been my forte."

~skipping the preliminary round~

[A/N: cause I'm too lazy to do it, but our heroes do make it out just fine]

Up in the hotel room, the team was getting settled in, that is until there was a knock on the door. Yami opened it and looked down at the figure standing there; nervous eyes looking up at him, a 6'1 guy with a well-toned build that's supposedly the older brother of a fox they knew, can be a little intimidating.

"Um... Hi, Yami..." The small figure piped up.

"You looking for Hoshi?" The blue eyed fox asked with a raised eyebrow. The figure nodded and Yami opened the door all the way, the figure followed him in and the fox closed the door before leading the person to the living room, where Yami's foster sister was. "Hoshi, you got a visitor."

The said fire girl looked over from her spot by the window to see mint blue hair and irises that matched her own; sitting up right when the figure's face clicked into recognition.

"Yukina... What are you doing here?"

Yukina brightened at her sister's friendly tone, well, friendlier tone; there was still a little edge to it, but not a threatening amount.

"I came to watch you and also..." She held out a wrapped package that she had been hiding behind her back and held it out to her imouto-chan. "And to give you this."

Curiosity shined the fire girl's eyes as she reached out and gently took it from her sister's hold, she moved over on the windowsill to allow her to sit as well, the ice maiden did and watched with anxiety as the present was opened. A hilt of a katana was revealed under the brown wrapping paper, it was decorated with a black dragon with red jewel eyes and mint blue designs around the eyes. Hoshi pulled it out from the rest of the wrapping by gripping it just underneath the hilt, then held it gingerly in her hands as she looked it over, even pulled it out of its sheath a bit to see the blade, before giving Yukina a confused look.

"I already have a katana, onee-chan." She said, gesturing to the simple blade at her waist.

Yukina shrugged, "you never know, it could break in one of your fights. Besides, I had it custom made for you." She gently traced the designs around the dragon's eyes, almost reminded of her other sibling.

She didn't expect the sudden embrace she was pulled into. Hoshi had set the smaller girl's against her shoulder so she could set her chin on top of her head and had her arms wrapped around her waist.

"Thank you, onee-chan." Hoshi whispered into her hair. "Thank you."

Yukina smiled, she made her imouto-chan happy and even got some open affection, which is more than her onii-kun did. She hugged her little, but ironically taller sister, back.

"You're welcome." She murmured as a tear of pure happiness slid her cheek before it solidified into a multicolored stone that Hoshi would later pick up and hide in her shirt as a loving keepsake. So she would have proof of her sister's wonderful smile.

I hope I did well!
