"Koenma-sama, the girls are here" George inform as soon as he enter inside the office with the girls behind him.
Koenma stop stamping in his paper and look up. "Good, you girls are here. I'm going to tell you about your mission"
Shizuru raise an eyebrow. "Our mission? You know that the guys won't let us fight, right? Even if we pleaded, they won't agree that easily"
"I know, but you girls must do this or else the Spirit World and Human World will be in the hands of a powerful demon"
"What do you mean by that, Koenma-sama?" Botan narrowed her eyes.
"We have receive an invitation in which a demon name Hibiki wants the four of you to fight in the upcoming Dark Tournament, the prizes are Ningenkai and Rekai" George answer instead.
"What?" Keiko exclaimed. "That's outrageous! Plus, how did this demon, Hibiki, knows us? Shouldn't he be looking for Yusuke and others? He defeated Toguro after all"
Yukina nodded in agreement.
"Unfortunately, when your first mission occured. A spy was there, supervising your every moves although he didn't saw Yukina fight, he considered her also. The spy happens to be Hibiki's servant though I still don't know the reason why he's there until now. Hibiki plans to get Rekai and Ningenkai by deciding it in the Dark Tournament" Koenma sighed.
"And he chose us because he's underestimating us. We may have won at those guardians because of our emotional state that got the best of us, that's probably the information they knew of" Botan said.
Koenma nodded, impressed at his top ferry girl's level of intelligence, but it's to be expected. She had experienced all of this before and it's always the same. It's either revenge, take over, etc.
"Are you girls up for it?" the toddler asked, seriously.
"Yes. For Rekai and Ningenkai, I'll do anything" Botan nodded.
"Me too. I hate doing nothing, so I'll protect our realm" Keiko stated as Shizuru nodded.
"Ningenkai had been the best place I could ever imagine. I'll protect both" Yukina said, determinely.
Koenma smiled. "Thank you, girls. I'll inform Genkai about this, so you girls could start your training already"
"When will it start?" Shizuru asked.
"Next month, on the first day of the month"
"How will we say this to the guys?" Botan asked, worriedly.
Koenma sighed. "The only thing you could do now is to show them your hidden strength and power. It's the only solution for them to agree with you girls"
The girls look at each other, each were contemplating whether to tell it or not. But, if it can make their overprotective friends to agreed, then it's fine.
"Okay, we'll do it" Keiko said.
Koenma smiled. "Good, oh and please find a suitable fifth member of your group. Every team must have a five members"
"I'll go to Makai" Botan said as she materialize her oar.
"Why, Botan-san?" Yukina asked curiously.
"I know someone there than can help us. She's really strong, she'll do good in our team" the deity said and smile sheepishly.
"Okay, be careful" the ice maiden smiled.
Botan opened a portal and went inside, leaving the girls, Koenma, and George.
"Balls of Lightning!" exclaimed a she-cat demon as she shot multiple lightning balls towards some low-class demons that were aiming at her.
She laughs as she watch them fall down one by one. Her companions who are only standing at the side was staring at her with incredulous looks.
"You're the only woman I know that laughs after defeating many demons" Suzuki grinned as he walked closer to her.
"It's pretty hilarious to hear these pathetic demons act all arrogant, but in the end they're the ones who are dead" she chuckled.
Jin grins as hew flew around, energetically.
"I hear ya lassie 'an I completely agree with ya"
Chu went up towards her, hanging his arm around her shoulder. "Ne Sheila, are you participating in the Dark Tournament? You know if you join, I would love to fight ya"
She raise an eyebrow. "Dark Tournament? They are going to have another tournament?"
"Well yeah, but the prizes are different" Touya frowned a bit. "The team that wins the tournament will get the Ningenkai and Rekai"
"What?! But, that's absurd" she frowned as she remembered someone.
Rinku sighed. "We know and we're guessing that the Urameshi Team would compete in this tournament to win over their home and Rekai. Koenma wouldn't have their world to be in the wrong hands"
"That's right, he won't and neither do I" a familiar voice said from above them.
All of them look up to see Botan, the deity of the death with blue hair and amethyst-colored eyes, sitting in her oar and was looking down at them. Her face is not the usual cheery one, she's more serious. Jin slightly frown.
"Botan!" they all exclaimed. Everyone look at the female-cat demon.
"You know her?" Rinku gestured towards Botan who swiftly jump down from her oar and dematerialize it.
"Yes. I met her during the dark tournament, she's ac —" the deity swiftly put her palm on the cat's mouth, effectively shutting her up.
The six demons raise an eyebrow at them. Jin crossed his arms.
"Ey, ey, ey, somethin' fishin' is goin' on 'ere. Eh Botan? Why did you stop her?" he asked, closing towards them
"Hehehe... you'll know sooner or later, but for now, can I borrow Satsumi?" the deity gestured towards the female-cat demon. She didn't even wait for their answer as she pulled Satsumi away from the guys.
"What's the verdict, Botan?"
"I need your help about something"
"Okay. What would that be?"
"Can you be our fifth member for the upcoming Dark Tournament?" Botan immediately mindlink her.
"What? You're joining?" Satsumi asked, shocked.
"Girl, I'm a ferry girl that lives in the Spirit World, of course, I would do everything just to save my home" The blue-haired ferry girl said.
"Ehhh..okay. Besides, I owe you one for saving me" the cat demon smirked.
"Great. Now say bye-bye to Jin-kun and the others because we need to go to Rekai immediately" she said as she materialize her oar.
The both of them went back towards the demons who were eyeing them as they went back towards them. Botan looks happy in their point of view, but Satsumi looks a bit nervous.
"Uhmm.. guys. I'm going with Botan to the Spirit World, so bye-bye" she smiled awkwardly.
"..."
"S-So, you girls are telling us that all four of you have undergo training with grandma?!" Yusuke exclaimed with a disbelief look in his face.
Earlier, they were looking for the girls and now that they have appeared, they told them that they havew spiritual powers and that they undergo training with Genkai. The Rekai Tantei have thought of that as their excuse.
"Look Keiko, I'm not that dumb for you to had your excuse, you can stop lying now" the spirit detective said, seriously.
Keiko sighed. "I'm telling the truth, Yusuke. Please believe me"
The spirit detective look torn in believing and not believing, but seriously who would believe that? His childhood friend suddenly had spiritual power like him? That's a —
"Holy cow!"
The Rekai Tantei immediately dodge Keiko's attack? What the hell? Since when did Keiko can do what Yusuke can do?!
"Okay! It's time for more explanation. Right now!" Yusuke demanded.
Shizuru take out a cigarette and lit it with her lighter. "Master Genkai decided to not only had one student, but four more students and apparently she picked me, Keiko, Botan, and Yukina although Yukina had another teacher"
"Why did you girls only tell us, right now?" Kurama asked, suddenly feeling a head ache coming on. Why didn't his little sister told him?
Hiei crossed his arms beside him, looking obviously displease. Very displease.
"We don't actually had a valid reason, it just cross in our minds not to tell you guys" Shizuru laughed nervously.
Kuwabara facepalmed.
"..."
Koenma decided to break the silence. "Okay Botan, why did you bring these demons also?" he gestured towards the six demons who were staring at him.
"I didn't want to bring them, but they insisted themselves" she protested.
"Well, you don't want to tell us why Satsumi needs to go with you to the Spirit World" Shishi crossed his arms.
Koenma turn towards the she-cat demon. He examine her up and down, she had a long, mid-length green hair, green cat eyes with green fluffy cat ears on top of her head and a long green tail behind her. She's wearing a kimono.
"Is she the one?" Koenma asked.
Botan nodded. "I believe she's perfect fit"
"What are you guys talking about?" Touya asked, curiously.
