Hey people, I decided that this is going to be the last chapter, but I am going to write a sequel. So I better get on with it. I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho, Susami, Reuka, and Yohei.

Chapter 7: Negotiations, The Letter, and Starting Over

......

"Well we haven't heard it yet have we so, let us hear it first," Susami said. "Okay, I think we should negotiate. Before you all start complaining, hear me out. First, if they were to catch us, than we would get in more trouble than if we were to turn our selves in. Second, I can probably convince Koenma to let us keep our weapons since they were originally ours, and to not get sent to jail. Third, Susami and Yohei were turned into puppies. Those guys did not work alone; they worked for someone else, a lot stronger. If this person, were to come after us, we could all die. We are going to need the Reikai as an ally."

"I hate that idea," Yohei said as Maro finished talking. "I told you, you would hate it," Maro said. "I don't like it much either," Susami said. Reuka who was deep in thought said, "But Yohei, Susami, we might at least take it into consideration. Maro has good reasons, and if what she said is true, then well we all could be in danger. But Maro who are you talking about?"

"You all might not need to worry about it, so I am not going to tell you," Maro replied. "Why not?" Susami asked. Maro thought of what to say. "She has her reasons, Susami," Yohei said before Maro could speak.

"So are we going to do it?" Reuka asked. "I guess so," Susami said. Yohei was quiet for a moment. If Maro was talking about who Yohei was thinking about, than they were going to need a lot of allies. She said, "Fine, but Maro, you better do some good negotiating,"

......

"Guys, stay back here, just in case we have to make a run for it," Maro said as they walked up to the door in Koenma's office. Yohei, Susami, and Reuka grunted as they all went to lean against the wall. Maro walked in the door. When Maro closed the door, Susami put her dog-ear against the door. "I can't hear anything," Susami said still trying to listen. "You know Maro doesn't talk loudly," Yohei said.

Koenma did not even notice that Maro walked in because he was to busy stamping papers. "Hello Koenma. Before you start calling your guards, I'm here to negotiate; and if that is not good enough for you, I have some information you might want to know concerning the three worlds," Maro said to become noticed. Koenma almost jumped out of his seat when he heard her voice.

"What information do you have Maro?" Koenma asked. "I can't tell you unless you meet are demands," Maro said. "And they are?" Koenma asked. "We do not go to jail. Also, that we get to keep our weapons. If you check the pasts of those weapons, you will see that they were ours," Maro said. "I cannot let you keep those weapons, especially not the Mystic Katana, I believe you know what it can do," Koenma said. "Listen toddler, I personally knew the maker of the Mystic blade, it was my grandfather," Maro said angrily. "Don't call me toddler, I am 700 hundred years old. You should respect your elders," Koenma said. Maro yelled quite loudly, "Respect your elders, you should practice what you preach. I'm a good 100 years older that you are, so I can call you whatever I want!"

......

Outside the door Susami was rubbing her ears and said, "My ears they hurt." "Yeah, Maro doesn't speak loudly," Reuka, said smirking. "Wonder what Koenma said to make her mad," Yohei said.

......

"Look Koenma, what I'm telling you is true. I can't be on the run and I need this weapon to do what I need to do," Maro said finishing her explanation. "Fine, but you all are going to have to work for me. Nothing big, but just to make sure nothing happens in the Ningenkai and the Makai. You can do what you need to do, one can work in the Makai, and the other two can work in the Ningenkai," Koenma said finally agreeing.

Maro was just about to walk out the door when Koenma said, "Also, we are going to need some information for our files," "Fine, let me get them," Maro said walking out the door.

"Guys, we a free, well partially," Maro said as she walked out the door. "What do you mean, partially?" Susami asked. "You should know you were listening in," Maro said. "She couldn't hear, her ears are still ringing from when you were yelling," Reuka said. "Answer the question Maro. How can you say partially?" Yohei asked. "Well... we have to work for Koenma for awhile. We can still live normal lives, just make sure nothing bad happens." "For how long?" Yohei asked. "I don't know," Maro said. "What do you mean you don't know? You could read his mind you know," Reuka said. "He doesn't even know. But we need to go in he says he wants some information," Maro said.

"Let's just get this over with," Yohei said not wanting to do this. "Well I would like some facts about your pasts, for our files," Koenma said. "Don't remember a thing," Reuka said. "Same here," Susami said after. Yohei looked at Maro, Maro could tell that Yohei wanted to go last. So Maro said, "I'm the last luna- hermana alive. My village was burnt down. Only three others survived." Yohei was hesitant at first but finally said, "I'm a Shadori, and my village was attack by Lightures. And I will get my revenge." "Okay, that is good enough, I guess. You all may leave now," Koenma said as he continued to stamp papers.

"Well that wasn't so bad," Maro said trying to act positive. "You know none of us want to work for Koenma," Reuka said. "Well it is not so bad, Reuka you can go back to your human life," Maro said. The rest of the way home was in silence.

......

"Why does Koenma, want us here again?" Kuwabara asked as the Reikai Tentai walked down the hall to Koenma's office. "He said it was some thing about our case," Yusuke said. Hiei continued to walk but he felt as if I familiar presence was just there.

When they got to Koemna's office, Koenma said, "Okay guys, I have some good news for you; the case is closed. The girls came to negotiate. They had some information for me, so I let them go." "You just let them go again?" Yusuke asked. "I'm not that stupid, they work for me now. Two are guarding the Makai and the other two are guarding the Ningenkai."

"What is this information that they gave you?" Kurama asked. Koenma was just about to tell them when he remembered what Maro said, 'You tell anybody, and I will kill you. I will find out if you did too. No body is supposed to know about this, not even you.' Koenma decided to say, "This information has nothing to do with you guys. You don't have to worry." With that the Reikai Tentai left.

......

Susami, Reuka, and Yohei woke up late the next morning. Well at least late to Maro because she was nowhere to be seen. "Have you guys seen Maro?" Susami asked as she walked into the kitchen. "No, she always wakes up around 8 or 9, even if she doesn't have anything to do in the morning. Maybe she went for a walk or something," Reuka said. "I don't know but I'm going to watch some television," Yohei said as she walked put of the kitchen and into the living room.

Yohei was about to pick up the remote when she noticed a piece of paper on the coffee table. She read it and could not understand some of it. She went back into the kitchen and said, "Guys, I found this note from Maro, but I couldn't understand some of it," "Well let me read it," Reuka said as she grabbed the paper from Yohei and read it out loud.

Guys,

I think I failed to mention this before, but Koenma wants two of us to work in the Makai and two of us in the Ningenkai. He only said that I have to go to the Makai. I would tell you guys to decide amongst yourselves to choose who goes to the Makai but I got ability to predict the future back. So Yohei will be going to the Makai, Reuka will go back to her ningen life and Susami will start hers over. Susami can live in this apartment, I have already checked out of the school for us, and Susami under her real human name is check in.

Maro

P.S. Do not drink the thing that looks like lemonade Susami, that is for Yohei, she will be needing it.

Susami looked down at the glass she was holding that had the lemonade looking drink in it, and said, "Here Yohei you might want to drink this." Yohei took the glass from her and looked at it and smelled the drink and drank it. Suddenly the room was covered with smoke. When it cleared Yohei was standing there in her shadori form.

Susami looked through the fridge for something else to drink. She found another note and read it out loud.

Guys,

I hope that you found my other note, and that no one that is not Yohei, has drank the lemonade yet. The drink that looks like lemonade is actually a poison. Do not worry it is not going to kill Yohei. Not all poisons kill, if they are used correctly. Anyway, this poison is used to change a youkai in a human form, to permanently be in their youkai form. Yohei is going to want to be in her shadori form when she goes to the Makai. Yohei just do not go into your human form this week, because you can still do that for the rest of this week. If not you will be in your human form permanently.

Maro

"I going to get my sword and leave, maybe I'll see you two soon," Yohei said as she walked out of the kitchen. Before Reuka and Susami knew it she was out the door. "Well I guess I better start packing, I have to get to the dorm I will be living in by tomorrow, so I can start my classes at the school I was accepted to," Reuka said as she stood up and walked out of the kitchen. 'Man, is this place going to be quiet. I have never lived in a house so quiet,' Susami thought as she too walked out of the room.

......

Yohei walked down the path in the Makai. She knew all she had to do was kill some demons that were a threat to the Reikai, before Koenma ever had to do anything about it. 'This will be easy. All I have to do is kill demons I do not like,' Yohei thought as she continued to walk.

......

Maro walked up the mountain in the Makai. It was unfamiliar territory for her. She had two missions; it was nothing new to her. They had been her missions 700 years of her life. She thought, 'I hope that I will be able to do what I failed to do 15 years ago.

......

Susami walked to school alone the next day. She had to start new again; now going by a different name, her human name, Kristina Lopez at school. 'According to what Maro said when we first started working for Koenma; Koenma erased the memory of us from everyone except the Reikai Tentai. I hope she is right,' Susami thought when she walked through the doors.

Later on during lunch, Susami sat under a tree and thought, 'Maro was right I am known as Kristina Lopez here. I wonder were Kurama and Hiei are, they are not here.' She was taken out of her thoughts when she heard a voice. It was Yusuke, "So Susami, or should I say Kristina, what are you doing here? I thought you work for Koenma now." "I'm living in the human world and going by my human name," Susami said. "Kristina is not a Japanese name. Where does it originate from?" Kuwabara asked. "As a human I'm from America. Where are Kurama and Hiei? I noticed that they are not here," Susami said. "Hiei didn't want to come to school anymore. He does not like so many humans around. Kurama got accepted to some honors boarding school, but he still lives with his mother. 'I wonder if he is going to the same school as Reuka,' Susami thought as she, Yusuke and Kuwabara continued to eat their lunch and talk.

......

Reuka sat in her desk and wondered when she can go back to her dorm room. Even though she does not like her room mate Ashley; she gets on her nerves and there was something about her she did not feel was right. 'At least this is science class, my favorite subject,' she thought as the teacher said roll. She was taken out of her thoughts as the teacher said her human name, "Jessen, Sarah Jessen." "Here," Reuka said. She was going to go back to being deep in thought until she heard the name, Shuichi Minamino. 'Is he here?' Reuka thought as she looked around the classroom and saw Kurama.

When the teacher was done she got up from her desk and said, "Today class we are going to start our biology unit, I have assigned the class into groups of two, you and your partner will have to sit next to each other and do different experiments. Asa and Hoshi, Maemi and Kin, Natsu and Kozue, Ren and Kumi, Kiyoshi and Mitsu, Ashley and Nori, Sarah and Shuichi, Saku and Rin, Satu and Sanyu, Tomi and Seiko, Aubrey and Kuma. Now all get into your groups and get situated, I have something to do in the office." Everyone got into their places and when the teacher left everyone started talking.

When Reuka and Kurama got into their seats Kurama asked, "Reuka what are you doing here?" "I was supposed to come here, but Maro made some kind of copy of me to come here while we stole the weapons and everything. Is this your first week here?" Reuka said. "Yes it is. I applied to come here some time back and I got a letter saying I was accepted yesterday. Sarah is your human name I presume," Kurama replied. "Yeah, it is," Reuka, said. Reuka who could not think of anything else to say, said, "I guess you're good at biology." "No, I have no history of dealing with plants," Kurama said sarcastically. At that time the teacher came in and they started class. Before Reuka stated paying attention she thought, 'Well this will be interesting, maybe I'll be able to figure out why he seems so familiar.'

Fin or Is It?

......

Okay, I am done with this fic. I am going to write a sequel. It is going to be called Strangers at War. If you want to know what happens read it.
