After a good night's rest Shinsei was completely re-energized. The gang was throwing her a surprise party for completing Genkai's training. They got snacks and drinks, everything a party needed. Everyone was their even Koenma. He wasn't invited but after a sincere apology and a new first impression to Shinsei they were on tolerable terms. The girls were currently playing twister while the men spun the dial calling out what each girl had to do. It was Shinsei, Keiko, Yukina, Shizuru and Botan playing right now with Shinsei in the lead. It was Yukina's turn and Yusuke got to spin, he called out the order.

"Left hand green!" Most of them got the move pretty easily but poor Yukina collapsed, in doing so, since she was on top over everyone else, took everyone down with her. The five of them giggled happily as they got untangled. Everyone was now relaxing around the coffee table as they played sorry. Shinsei was curled up in Hiei's arms with a content smile as she rolled the dice taking their turn. Koenma cleared his throat to get everyone's attention pulling out a present from his robes

"Could we pause this game for a moment? I would like to give this to Shinsei…" She smiled softly sitting up then she took the present resting it on her lap. She unwrapped it her excitement growing at wanting to know what it was. Her excitement disappeared when she took the lid off. She sweat dropped looking at the golden egg that was inside biting her lips nervously, what would you say if someone got you an Easter egg for a present?

"Uh…Thank you…I think? What is it?" Koenma chuckled a little gently picking the egg up to show her. It was about the size of the Ostrich egg so he had to use two hands to hold it.

"This is your spirit egg. I made it the day Genkai chose to train you knowing it would help you become stronger and just that much closer to becoming a half demon. It has been feeding off of you spirit energy since that day, that's why it's so big. When it hatches depends on the spirit energy and the person it's soul is linked too. If the spirit energy is pure then the beast will help you, otherwise it will hatch and devour your body and soul." Shinsei gulped and pushed the egg back to him quickly backing up into Hiei's arms.

"Get this god damn thing away from me! I just finished my training! I don't want to die!" Koenma chuckled and held it gently as he rolled his eyes.

"Relax. I have been monitoring it well, the only energy its feeding on is pure…Your safe." Shinsei relaxed a little bit sitting back up taking the egg and holding it gently. She smiled slightly getting kinda excited at what it would be.

"So…What do I do with it?"

"Treat it like a baby, the more time is spends with you the quicker it will hatch. Plus spirit beast seem to hatch quicker with women…I don't know why but that turns out to be the case." Shinsei cradled the egg in her arms nuzzling it happily.

"This is great! So how much longer do you think until it hatches?" Koenma laughed a little at her eagerness and smiled.

"We'll I gave it too you now because truthfully it could hatch any day." Shinsei smiled bright practically beaming. She put the egg down gently back in the box then hugged Koenma tightly.

"Thank you Koenma, I really appreciate this." Hiei frowned and growled lowly at seeing this, he did have a jealous side. Shinsei smirked at Hiei going to extra measures. She gave Koenma a soft kiss on the cheek as well. Koenma blushed heavily and cleared his throat quickly getting up and walking off thru a portal back into the spirit world. Shinsei giggled at the way he reacted, it was cute.

After the party died down everyone started going to be being tired from the day. Shinsei held her egg gently as she came into her room. She laid it gently then went and got a regular sized box from the closest. She grabbed some blankets and pillows then made a nice little bed for her egg. she laid it in there gently sliding it up next to her bed. She smiled patting it gently

"Hatch soon…I can't wait to meet you." She then stood up stretching happily with a smile as she stripped down to nothing getting her Pj's. Just then Hiei decided to walk in. He smirked a little when she blushed heavily holding up a shirt in a ditch attempt to cover her body.

"Hiei!? Knock first!" He chuckled softly shaking his head.

"You can be nervous around me, I'm courting you it's a natural thing to see each other nude." Shinsei was beat red shaking her head quickly.

"Not for humans! Usually that kinda stuff happens when you um…Have sex…" She didn't want to talk about this right now!

"Just…turn and don't look!" Hiei rolled his eyes at her nervousness but complied and did as he was told. Shinsei quickly dashed around her room grabbing her Pj's. She was dressed soon feeling a little better. She cleared her throat.

"Alright…I'm decent…" Hiei nodded stripping off his cloak then throwing it on the floor. He laid down on the bed motioning for her to come. Shinsei smiled a little walking over to him then curling up beside him contently.

"This is the life…I love you Hiei…" Hiei nodded a little not too open with his emotions. She soon fell asleep in his arms happily.

Shinsei spend her next few days with Hiei perfecting her technique. He taught her how to harness her energy, defend, gage her enemy and much more! He told her the Genkai simply made her stronger and that what Hiei was doing was teaching how to use that strength. No matter where she went Shinsei always brought her spirit egg with her. She was convinced if she left it alone for even a moment something bad would happen to it, Hiei couldn't understand her but Yusuke simply said something called motherly instinct. He brushed it off as nothing and just allowed her to so what she wished. It was currently a beautiful day and Shinsei was with Hiei sparring in the glade. She had taken up the Naginata since, in truth, it was the only weapon it she was remotely good at using. They had been at it the whole day and now Shinsei was just done. She collapsed on the warm grass panting tiredly.

"Alright oh mighty demon overlord I give…you win…" Hiei frowned at her sheathing his Katana.

"You just give up so easily? You will be killed instantly…" Shinsei frowned a little as she got up motioning to her sweaty worn out self.

"Look at me Hiei, I'm half dead! let's just take a break ok?" Hiei sighed a little but nodded, how could he refuse her? Shinsei smiled happily then saw the lake out of the corner of her eye. She got an idea happily sprinting off towards it then diving in happily. Hiei watched her as she broke thru the water smiling at him happily.

"Come on Hiei the water is great! Cool down for a bit then we can train again, ok?" Hiei just stared at her then gave in taking off his cloak and sword. In truth he really was just as tired as she was as well. He got in slowly then dove under. Shinsei smiled as she tread the water following his Ki. He suddenly masked it making her blind. She gulped looking around everywhere.

"Alright Hiei very funny, get up here!" Hiei suddenly came up behind her silently and wound his arms around her waist holding her close.

"Boo…" Shinsei blushed then smiled happily turning in his hold kissing him softly.

"Oh you scared me…" Hiei smirked resting his forehead against hers happily as he smiled. Shinsei smiled also holding his shoulders gently. She suddenly felt weird, uneasy almost. She turned looking over to where he spirit egg sat in its little cradle.

"Hey do you feel that…?" Hiei looked over to where she was looking shaking his head.

"No, what is it?" Shinsei shook her head not knowing as she swam to the edge of the lake climbing out. She walked over to her egg knelling down to it. She picked it up gently rubbing it. Her eyes widened when she felt it move. She almost dropped it in shock when another movement was felt. Hiei came up behind her worriedly.

"Shin…?" Shinsei looked back at him smiling brightly.

"It's moving…Hiei my spirit beast is hatching!" Suddenly a crack appeared across the shell. Shinsei quickly put it down on the grass. Hiei quickly pulled her back just in time as the whole egg exploded. Hiei held her close shielding her from the solid gold egg shells. When it was ok he let her go. Shinsei looked over to where the egg once sat her eyes place of the egg sat the most adorable little dragon, fish thing she'd ever seen! It was a small blue serpent like dragon about the size of a bread box. It had delicate blue winds on its back and webbed fingers on all four of its feat. The tail was long and had a fish like tip too it. The baby dragon looked up at Shinsei making a small rawering sound. Her heart melted at the sight as she went right up to it kneeling down. She held out a hand for the small beast smiling happily.

"Hello there…Your adorable, my names Shinsei." The dragon seemed to understand her, nodding slightly. It nuzzled into her hand tripping and falling onto her lap. She giggled at how cute it was gently picking it up. She turned showing it to Hiei.

"Hiei look, my spirit beast is a dragon!" Hiei stared wide eyed at it walking up to her and inspecting it curiously.

"Yes…How odd, I've never seen such a spirit beast." Shinsei smiled petting the soft silky scales on its head gently. The little dragon saw the water over Shinsei shoulder quickly jumping out of her arms. Shinsei's eyes widened trying to catch her as she flew sloppily over the water then fell in. Shinsei panicked going to jump in but Hiei held her back. Before she could protest he pointed to the water. The little dragon broke thru the surface doing a flip then another and another. Shinsei watched with wide eyes then grinned happily.

"S-She can swim!?" Shinsei ran over to the edge of the water when it came out, She smiled petting it gently on the head. Her eyes widened when she saw the scales were dry, they must dry instantly when she left the water. She gently picked it up then turned to Hiei with a smile.

"We should go show everyone! They've all been so excited to see what my spirit beast would be!" Hiei nodded turning and crouching down for her so she could climb on. Shinsei gently put the dragon on her back with a smile.

"Hang on tight, ok?" Its small claws dug into her shirt gently as it clung to her. Shinsei climbed on Hiei's back with a smile as he hopped off.

They arrived at the dojo soon Hiei letting Shinsei off his back gently. She walked inside seeing Yusuke and Kuwabara playing Video games, Kurama reading a book and Yukina and Genkai talking. Shinsei cleared her throat with a smile catching their attentions.

"Everyone I have great news! Guess what just happened!" Kurama smiled at her eagerness.

"Did you finally transform to a demon?" Shinsei shook her head. She gently nudged the small beast on her back. It climbed up her shoulder making the small dragon poke up and sit on her shoulder. Everyone's eyes widened Yukina going up to her quickly looking at the small dragon in awe.

"It is your Spirit beast! But what is she?" Shinsei smiled a little holding her in her arms gently,

"A dragon of some sort I think." Suddenly a portal appeared and Koenma came running out looking frantic.

"What happened to the spirit egg?!" He froze when he saw the bluish dragon on Shinsei's shoulder.

"Is that your spirit beast…?" Shinsei nodded happily.

"Yep! This is…um…well I haven't thought of a name, hold on give me a minute." She looked at her little dragon then got it snapping happily.

"Mizu! it means water, it suits her since she loves the stuff." The little dragon purred happily in her arms appearing to love the name. Koenma looked at it skeptically.

"This is…truly remarkable, there has not ever been a dragon as a spirit beast since, since Hiei, and even his beast isn't a natural one like yours." Shinsei looked at him in shock then over to Hiei.

"Hiei you have a dragon beast too?! Why haven't I seen it?" Hiei glared at Koenma angrily for telling her. He cleared his throat trying to beat around the bush.

"It…wasn't something that needed to be told." Shinsei shook her head going up to him stubbornly.

"No! I want you to show me your beast now!" Hiei growled in aggravation glaring daggers at Koenma for putting him into those predicament. He didn't want Shinsei to be afraid of him, he didn't want her to fear what he really was. Koenma gulped in fear backing off trying to escape the glare. Hiei turned back to Shinsei his eyes softening a little.

"Come outside then." Shinsei nodded happily following him outside. Hiei walked over a good distance from the temple then pulled up his sleeve. He slowly unraveled the bandages from his arm revealing a black dragon tattoo that circled up to his elbow. As soon as the bandages fell to the ground his whole arm was engulfed into a black flame. Shinsei stared wide eyed at the spectacle slightly worried about Hiei's arm, fire burned last time she checked. Hiei shut his real eyes and opened his Jagan. It stared to glow a purplish color then the black flames swarmed around him like a tornado. Shinsei saw the tattoo on his arm come to life and peel off his skin. It soared into the air roaring loudly as a large black serpent dragon. It red eyes opened and stared down at Hiei. It looked pissed at being summoned for no reason but still bowed its head respectively.

"Why have you called me master?" Shinsei's eyes widened at the deep raspy voice.

"It can talk!?" The dragon glared at Shinsei and growled lowly as a warning, Hiei may love her but the dragon had a mind of its own. Hiei growled also in warning. The dragon growled lowly then nodded slightly. It shrunk down to a smaller size, if you call the size of a pickup truck small that is. Shinsei stepped back slightly and gulped when its red gaze returned to her. Mizu suddenly jumped out of her arms and stumbled over to Hiei's dragon. She stood at its feet rawering softly in submission. The black dragon grunted and sat down looking board resting his head on his paws. Mizu climbed on top of his back and laid on his head upside down. The dragon lifted his head and went cross-eyed staring at Mizu in-between his eyes.

"Mizu, get off my snout." Mizu looked sad and rawered in protest. The black dragon hissed out angrily.

"You can stay on my head just get off my snout! I can't breathe!" Mizu hopped up and trotted to his head then curled up and fell asleep. Shinsei awed and laughed while Hiei only rolled his eyes at the almost sickening display, the dragon from hell cuddling with a tiny blue serpent. The black dragon sighed and laid down, careful not to knock Mizu off. Shinsei smiled at Hiei.

"I think Mizu likes uh…What's his name?" She laughed nervously. Hiei bit his lip looking at the dragon thinking of one on the spot.

"Jigoku."

"Jigoku, well it suits him. Anyway I think Mizu likes him." Jigoku sighed.

"Sadly, your right." Shinsei giggled a little, this was absolutely adorable! But the irritated look she got from Jigoku proved he wasn't happy. She smiled softly.

"I can take her off of you if you like." Jigoku stretched his head over to Shinsei and slowly let Mizu fall off his snout into Shinsei arms. Shinsei nuzzled her nose then sighed.

"I better be heading back and putting Mizu to bed, she looks exhausted…And so am I for that matter." Shinsei walked back inside while Hiei followed. He stopped looking back at Jigoku briefly.

"You can stay out for a while." He nodded and Hiei left. Everyone else stared at Jigoku wide eyed until he growled then they all scrambled back inside. Jigoku laughed lowly and fell asleep.

Inside, Koenma walked down the hall and motioned for Kurama to follow him. Kurama knew this was coming so he discreetly followed him off. Koenma crossed his arms and closed his eyes sighing sadly. Kurama waited patiently for Koenma to speak.

"You know what must happen to Shinsei in order for her to transform don't you…" Kurama sighed sadly then nodded looking down.

"Is she ready?" Koenma nodded and handed him a vile.

"Slip it into her food sometime this week when Hiei won't notice…We don't need him killing us all if he finds out we did this to her." Kurama nodded and hid the vile.
