Chapter 6
Kiyoko woke up to realize that she had fallen asleep and wondered how long she had slept when Kurama had gotten her attention.
"Did you sleep well, Kiyoko?" asked Kurama.
"Yeah," Kiyoko replied. "Thanks for asking."
"You're welcome," said Kurama.
"I'm sorry for falling asleep," Kiyoko apologized. "How long was I asleep?"
"You were tired so there's no need to apologize," Kurama chuckled. "You were asleep for a few hours."
Kiyoko thanked Kurama as he had given her the glass of juice that was on the coffee table. She told him what she dreamt about after drinking her juice.
"Last night night I dreamt about my and my sister's very first mission," said Kiyoko. "It was a failure, but we did manage to get away."
"I remember you telling me this when we first met in demon world," said Kurama. "It was the reason why Koenma had you and Etsu train in demon world to get stronger."
"Yeah, and learn how to survive on our own," said Kiyoko. "Anyway, I need to get going soon."
"Please, stay," said Kurama.
"Alright, I guess I can stay," said Kiyoko. "I'm really not in any hurry."
"Shall I make us dinner?" asked Kurama.
"Yes, that sounds nice," Kiyoko replied.

Etsu had woken up and started to draw in her sketch book until Hiei had gotten her attention.
"Why aren't you leaving yet?" asked Hiei.
"I didn't realize I was wearing out my welcome," Etsu said. "I'll leave in a minute."
Hiei caught a glace of Etsu's newest drawing as Etsu got up and closed her sketch book. Etsu was about to leave the warehouse until Hiei blocked her path, snatched away her sketch book, and opened it to look at the newest drawing she made of him.
"What's your problem?!" Etsu exclaimed.
"I want to know why you were drawing me," said Hiei.
"Because I wanted to," said Etsu.
"Hn, just leave," said Hiei, giving Etsu her sketch book back.
Etsu left as Hiei watched her. Etsu decided to eat at a resturant since she was hungry and waited for Kiyoko at the park afterwards so they could go back to Genkai's compound. Etsu didn't have to wait too long as she saw Kiyoko come. They went on their way back to the compound a couple of moments later.
"You think that Yusuke won Genkai's tournament?" asked Etsu.
"We'll just have to see," Kiyoko replied.
When the sisters were halfway up the stairs to the compound, they heard Yusuke yell out to them.
"Hey, this is embarrassing to ask, but can I have some help climbing up these stupid ass stairs?!" Yusuke called out. "I'm too freaking tired to do it by myself!"
The sisters ran down the stairs to Yusuke who was suprised to see them.
"What the hell are you two doing here?!" Yusuke exclaimed.
"Uh, we live here," said Kiyoko.
"Since when?" asked Yusuke.
"Since we've left Spirit World," Etsu replied.
"Why didn't you two say you lived with Genkai?" asked Yusuke.
"You never asked," the sisters replied.
"Whatever," said Yusuke.
The sisters rolled their eyes as they started to help Yusuke up the stairs. Yusuke told them about what he had to go though to win Genkai's tournament including having to fight Rando since Koenma had given him the job arrest him.
"What?!" the sisters exclaimed.
"I'm guessing that you two didn't know," said Yusuke.
"We had our suspicions, but we weren't sure," said Etsu.
"Not to mention that nobody told us!" Kiyoko added.
"Botan said that you two had trouble fighting Rando once and didn't like to talk about it," said Yusuke. "I was thinking that you can tell me about it since fighters tell their problems to other fighters."
"That sounds reasonable," said Kiyoko.
"Yeah, it does," Etsu agreed.
"Rando said some things about you, too," said Yusuke. "He said something about toying with you."
"Toying is a mild way to put it," said Kiyoko.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Yusuke.
"He tried to get fresh with us and we taught him a lesson," said Etsu.
"Yeah, it was just enough for us to get away since we weren't strong enough to beat him at the time," said Kiyoko. "As it turned out, Koenma didn't expect us to beat Rando, since we were still new at fighting."
"Koenma sent us somewhere to train for awhile so we could get stronger and learn how to survive on our own," said Etsu. "But, we never got to fight Rando again since Koenma had put us on other cases when we got back from training."
"About how long ago was that?" asked Yusuke.
"Oh, a few hundred years," Kiyoko replied.
"A few hundred years?!" Yusuke exclaimed. "Exactly how old are the both of you?!"
The sisters smacked Yusuke over the head.
"Hey, what was that for?!" Yusuke complained.
"You don't ask women how old they are!" the sisters snapped.
"Fine, I'm sorry!" Yusuke apologized.
"Anything else you want to know about?" asked Kiyoko.
"Yeah, Rando said that he made you fear him," Yusuke replied.
"That's bunch of BS," Etsu scoffed. "We were just frustrated."
"He mostly assumed we feared him, because we got away," said Kiyoko.
"You two aren't going to kick my ass for beating Rando, are you?" asked Yusuke.
"No, we're not," answered Kiyoko. "You were just doing your job."
"That's right," Etsu agreed.
The sisters let go of Yusuke as they finally reached the top of the stairs.
"Thanks for the help, you two," said Yusuke.
"You're welcome," said the sisters.
Genkai greeted the sisters back, but scolded Yusuke for getting back late from taking Kuwabara home.
"I was starving and had to get something to eat before coming back, so lay off!" Yusuke protested. "Not to mention that I'm freaking tired from all the crap I had to do today!"
"I'll show you to your room since you're so tired," said Genkai. "Etsu, Kiyoko, Botan's here to give you something."
Botan hugged the sisters when she saw them and cried as she apologized for not telling them about Rando since Koenma ordered her not to.
"Calm down, Botan," said Kiyoko. "You don't need to apologize."
"Kiyoko's right, because we're not mad," Etsu agreed. "Yusuke already filled us in."
"Anyway, Genkai said that you had something for us?" asked Kiyoko.
"Yes, it's the first class Tokyo Dome tickets I promised you girls," Botan replied.
"Thanks, Botan!" the sisters chimed.
Once Botan left a moment later, the sisters heard Yusuke yell on the top of his lungs.
"WHAT THE CRAP?!" Yusuke yelled.
