ENOUGH TALKING THEN! Hope you guys enjoy this installment!

Happy readings and don't forget to review ;)

I'm dead…oh my god I'm dead! I am SO dead!

Sin was sure that she's dead and was already expecting Koenma's toddler self to be floating over her dead soul.

"Are you alright?" asked a silky soothing voice. Sin groaned and tried to track where the sound was coming from.

"Miss?" the voice said again. Sin figured that he was hovering above her. Oh damn…I really am dead! I'm sorry Mom and Dad! I couldn't see you one last time-

"Seriously, I know you can hear me. So either you wake up or I'll perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation-"

Before the person could finish, Sin's eyes shot open and jumped away; the thought of a man touching her lips or anything…that close is repulsive enough to make her spring back from unconsciousness. Panting slightly at the almost-heart-attack-moment, Sin's eyes searched the vicinity, taking note of the fallen humans that were now turning back to their normal skin pigment. The insects must have gone out already. Once her brain registered that she was safe, at least for now, her eyes finally rested on the person who threatened to invade her personal space.

Sin's eyes grew wide with admiration as she took in the sight in front of her. The man who hovered above her was...drop dead gorgeous! If it wasn't for the fact that she was in the middle of a couple of unconscious schoolmates, she would've been hyperventilating already. The man had long glossy hair that was the color of midnight and it framed his perfectly chiseled face. She didn't miss that strong jaw of his either; his skin a perfect healthy olive shade. His perfect lines that dipped down his neck were taunting Sin, urging her to trace them.

"Would the little miss fancy a little peek?" His face contorted with suggestiveness but Sin somehow unbelievably missed it.

"Um…peek of what?" the man shook his head at this, it was apparent that this girl was too stupid.

"Anyway, what brings a kid like you here? Shouldn't you be at home?" The stranger asked. "It's quite dangerous for a little girl like you to be out and about at this time of the day."

Sin immediately disliked the guy.

"For your information I am not a kid," Sin stood up and straightened her rather mangled image. "In fact, I am currently attending high school."

"Oh wow, you really are an adult!" the man said with mock amazement that irked the short girl even further.

"You know what, just shut up. If you haven't saved my life I would've-" stopping mid sentence, it finally dawned on her what the highlight of the moment was. This man had saved her from those…things. Wouldn't it be possible that he, like her, is someone…that is not human? It could be possible! Sin was about to bombard the man with questions when she heard the familiar moaning and groaning. She gritted her teeth as she realized the only source of those sounds could be.

She grabbed the man's hand and tugged him rather harshly towards the gate and they sped through and out of the school grounds. Sin didn't know that she could move this quickly despite the added load. She glanced at the man and found that he didn't need dragging at all, in fact he was keeping up with her pretty well. It came to a point where it was her that was being dragged.

Sin rolled her eyes.

Of course, it wouldn't be long till she was reminded of her apparent lack in the height division.

Once both of them were in the safe confines of the woods behind the park, Sin let go of the man's hand and took in huge gulps of air, that sprint wasn't at all that good for her already tired self. When her breathing was slowly returning to its normal pace, Sin looked at the man again and took note of the way he's leaning against the tree.
He really is stunning!

Before she could ask a question, the man looked at her and smiled. Oh that smile! It could melt any woman's heart. The man secretly smirked, knowing his effect on women.

"So what's your name?" Sin asked as soon as she moved on from the stunning smile. The man blinked at her reaction. Surely she was mesmerized by that tantalizing smile. Sin waited for a reply. She won't deny it; the guy has a cute smile. But it's not like he's anything special.

"…call me Eri…" the man answered once he recovered from the unintentional blow.

Sin stared at him, "You mean 'Eri'…like…a girl's name?"

The man…well…Eri twitched in irritation but managed to hide it from her and smiled calmly. "It's a nickname…I'm afraid my real name is quite…unusual."

Sin stared at him rather blankly. Eri was sure that the girl was considering the mystery behind his name. "…you know you could just tell me that your name is that embarrassing." Eri lost his balance and hit the floor; this girl is just too stupid to realize that she was being 'tempted'. Well, it was more like trying to tempt her. It seems like this girl is just…

Eri's thoughts were interrupted when a rather irritating scream resounded throughout the forest. He winced and looked at Sin. "Blue zombies alert!" she screamed.

Sin didn't waste any time.

She attacked.

Seeing as she couldn't kill these…whatever thing these humans have changed into, Sin resorted to hand to hand combat. Sure, she wasn't as good with the sword as Hiei is. She wasn't as good as Kurama is with the whip. But one thing's for sure, she's not an amateur anymore. Those times spent training with Kurama and Hiei weren't a waste of time. Sure, she thought it was a waste of time, but after seeing herself respond to those creatures earlier was a good improvement.

Looking around, she was surrounded. Sin shook her head and concentrated. She can't let herself blow it again. "This time, there's no Emina to help me," she thought. Her eyes opened instantly once she felt the shift in pressure in her surrounding, one of those creatures lunged forward. Sin jumped back, dodging the attack. Sadly, there's a quite good number surrounding her. Once she dodged the first one, the others didn't wait. The onslaught was just beginning, Sin thought bitterly.

Landing on her hands and on one knee, she immediately pushed up and leapt. Twisting her body midair and maneuvering her leg, Sin landed a direct hit on one of the monsters' head; knocking its consciousness out of its nose. It groaned before passing out and the insect that caused this crawled out of its ear, scampering away from danger's way. Sin didn't let it go. Instinctively willing the vines, one shot out from her palm and pierced directly through the insect. Sin winced slightly at the sudden break on her skin but it didn't last long.

Well that's a good way to play this…

Smirking, Sin kicked off the ground, barely avoiding an attack from behind. Those claws of theirs weren't looking too clean. She wouldn't want infections now would she? Sin ducked from their line of sight, which was easy, and attacked from below. She skidded on the grassy ground and trapped one of the enemies' legs in between hers, she did a scissoring motion with her legs and sure enough, the blue guy was on the ground with his face planted on it. Sin didn't have enough time to celebrate for a growl was heard from above. Looking up, Sin figured that her position wasn't at all that good. Leaning on her hand, Sin thought "I've always wanted to do this move."

As if doing a handstand, Sin pushed herself up and went airborne. On the last minute, her leg did a sudden jolt and implanted itself on the creature's throat, making it emit a groan that can only interpreted as that of pain.

Sin grinned and used his throat as leverage to jump higher and landing another headshot on another victim. She was having fun! To stop herself from plummeting down on the ground and damaging her face, Sin grabbed on to two of the victims' hair and used them as handles while pulling them closer to one another and knocking their skulls together. Well that did the trick. The insects were crawling continuously out from their victims' ears and Sin didn't have time to think twice. Forcing the vines out from her palms, Sin aimed at the insects and despite their different directions, the black barbs didn't have trouble locating their target. The dead carcasses of the demon insects fell on the ground, twitching with their last drop of life.

Landing safely on her feet, Sin was so tempted to do a happy dance. Of course, there's no time for the enemy kept multiplying. Sin braced herself with a determined smile and jumped into action once the "hosts" were in her range.

Unknown to her, "Eri" was rather, entertained with this display of ability. He was observing the girl intently with a malicious smile on his face.

"Yes…this is good progress," he thought as he watched intently. The girl's abilities did improve over the short amount of time that the albino disappeared, ruining their plan.

"Maybe it was for the best," he suggested to himself as Sin showed her slight mastery of her barbs. "The girl is still untrained…maybe she'll make a good addition to the team," his smile didn't falter as the girl prepared herself for the second wave of enemies. She was exhibiting great potential. If she could prove herself an obedient little vixen, maybe he'll make an exception and cease their plan to exterminate her.

Yes…that was indeed a consideration.

When the number of those "Blue Zombies" started waning down, Eri made his way towards Sin. Like a predator stalking its prey, Eri silently slinked close to Sin, enough that he could touch a strand of her hair. He hid every ounce of his presence and it was obvious that the girl didn't have any idea that he was near.

He was ready to pounce.

To strike and claim his victim;

when something unexpected happened, extinguishing the impending danger and making him retreat.

Sin was having too much fun beating the crap out of these useless zombie wannabes that she failed to notice the blue swirl materializing in front of her. It was too late and the only thing she noticed was Koenma's pudgy face popping out from nowhere, "Hey there!"

Sin screamed and jumped back, her heart threatening to jump out of her chest. Once she was able to speak without her heart slipping from her throat, she glared at Koenma.

"Just because you're a toddler and have no sign of heart malfunction whatsoever doesn't mean you can go around scaring the hell out of people!"

Koenma merely floated there, staring at the disgruntled girl.

"I'm glad to see that you didn't have any problem handling these infected humans."

Sin gaped at him. He wasn't even acknowledging her almost-heart attack?

"It wasn't easy…" she mumbled. "But I had some help!" She smiled, remembering Eri who helped her back at the school grounds.

"Oh really? From who? I assume it's not Botan," Sin noticed Koenma's perplexed expression.

"Of course it's not Botan! C'mon! You don't see Eri-" Sin looked behind her while talking and fell silent.

Eri was gone.

"You didn't see him?" she asked the toddler prince. Koenma merely raised his eyebrows and shook his head.

Why did he leave? Sin thought but shrugged it off. The guy probably had some business to attend to.

"Well then, now that you're all calmed down, I think it's time to keep my side of the bargain." Koenma's body tilted slightly so that his profile could still be seen completely, at the same time, the portal behind him swirled and grew larger, enough to accommodate Sin. She stared at it.

"Where are we going?" she asked though knowing the answer already.

"To Reikai my dear."

Emina stared through the "window", horror and despair dawned on her.

"This isn't right…w-why did you-"

"Not me little one," Senka interrupted. "I merely gave you a slight push. It wasn't me…it was all you." Her devious little smile made the albino's blood boil. She hated this girl. She wanted her dead.

Looking out at the window, Emina took in the gruesome view of what's left of Sin's home. Most of the furniture were either broken or standing in a…wrong angle. The couch was in pieces, the leather ripped, letting its soft padding from the inside show. Glasses were smashed and scattered into millions of pieces; may it be the mirror or glass cutlery. Books were everywhere, ripped pages, magazines were torn apart, food was on the floor and on the ceiling as well.
Everything around showed the obvious sign of struggle.

They were a strong bunch. They didn't give in too easily.

Although they were just humans and Emina could have handled them rather easily, she chose the long and sadistic way to kill the pair. Now, not only did the food and some other drinks from the table litter the surrounding, blood is smeared on almost every surface that was touched…including Emina's hands and face.

Following the trail of blood and disarrayed things, there, inside the bathroom, a bloody mass of flesh laid sprawled over each other, the man on top of the woman as if in a protective notion.

"Last attempt to save themselves eh?" Senka scoffed. "And you my dear," she turned to Emina. "Didn't really go easy on them."

Emina stared wide eyed and traced the single katana that pierced through both humans' hearts, linking them even in death. It stuck through the man's back all the way through the woman's.

She did this.
There was no mistaking it. It was all her. Emina saw everything that happened.

The whirlwind of events.

The unnatural storm that plagued the house, courtesy of the storm monger.

The yielding of weapons.

Their useless attempt to fight back.

Everything!

Emina couldn't take this. In a last attempt to fight, she swirled sharply towards the smaller demon. With a snarl, Emina lunged at her. Emina's eyes filled with hatred, not towards the girl but towards herself.

She let herself loose.

"Oh…cute cat demon aren't ya?" Senka merely smiled in mock fascination at Emina's demon form. Emina's white cat ears and tail emerged as she attacked the damned little girl from hell. Her claws buried sweetly in Senka's neck, Emina said, "Get out of my mind."

"Sorry dear," Senka's calmness irked the infuriated cat demon. "But I can't do that." With a jolt, Emina found herself collapsed and on her knees. She couldn't stand. She saw Senka descend and leaned forward, Emina just a breath away. "I wouldn't want you to suffer. You have such a great potential, such immense power in that body of yours," Senka reached out and touched one of Emina's ears, it twitched away from her instinctively.

"How cute," Senka giggled like a little girl. "So I suggest you go nighty-night and let your true intentions loose," As if she wasn't close enough, Senka leaned even closer to the panting cat demon; Emina couldn't break free from Senka's hold.

"Just let your dark desires out…forget about these humans…their existence is merely for our benefit, our food."

With that, Emina's vision blurred out, her mind merging with her body and consciousness, those of which caused the havoc in this home.

No longer did she have the ability to think differently, to have separate brains. There's now only one Emina…the one influenced by Senka.

Looking at the damage she caused, Emina smirked evilly and walked calmly down the hall towards the basement. It's time to continue what she came for.

"So you're telling me that my dad really is a demon?" Sin gasped incredulously. Koenma didn't wait for her to get settled and immediately started talking about her roots.

"Yes. When I started researching your ancestry, it took a very interesting turn!" Koenma floated towards his drawers and shelves and started ruffling through them.

"My…he's really in to it," Sin jumped back at the sudden voice of someone beside her. Her eyes bulged at the sight. It came from a ….a ….creature that's wearing a leopard loincloth! "W-what…a-" she stammered out.

"Where are my manners?" the blue thing piped up and stiffened. "I'm George!" He bowed and offered his hand.
Sin reluctantly took and shook it. The guy seemed harmless but still…she's done with blue people today. "S-Sin" she nodded.

"I believe your birth name is 'Selene'," Koenma's face looked like it just jumped out of nowhere.

"I told you not to do that!" Sin growled. "And yes…that's my real name."

"Why go by 'Sin' then?" Koenma held some folders in his arm.

"…my real name is girly. I wanted a name that gives shivers of fear down people's spines!" the determination in her eyes made the toddler and the ogre fall down in laughter. Sin glared at them but that didn't seem to work.

"Anyway," Koenma brushed some tears away from the laughter, "Back to business."

Sin rolled her eyes and listened to him intently.

"We actually don't have a current picture of your father. But none the less, we do have a picture of him…from…50 years back." Koenma's TV screen instantly showed a picture of her dad.

Sin's eyes widened at the photo. If she didn't know better, she'd think the guy's a model. This man had chiseled features and strong contours on his face; very masculine. He had fox ears, black ones with silver tufts. Now that would be expected to lessen his masculinity but no, it added to his charm. He had long black and silver hair that accentuated his face and a broad built body. He looked damned fine for a father! But then again, this is him 50 years back, he's probably old and crusty by now.

"So...this guy had…ya know…a thing with my mom and conceived me in an old age?" she asked, not taking her eyes off of his golden eyes.

"Yes. He appeared to be bored about 17 years ago and decided to sneak in Ningenkai. Well, I guess your mom caught his attention and…voila! Here you are in the world!"

His failed attempt of enthusiasm was met by an emotionless stare from Sin.

"Ahem, well, this might catch your interest better. Your dad is a powerful figure. He's an animal demon. That being said, he has control over the environment. However, due to his boredom, it would seem that…he couldn't care less about the…well environment." Koenma seemed to be having a problem with talking.

"Just cut the formalities and get to the point, Small Fry," Sin always wanted to use that name.

Koenma merely twitched and continued. "The pollution in Ningenkai is no secret. Yes, the Human world is falling apart and it's all thanks to everyone who lives in it. Not only physical pollutions. There is also pollution in the mind…let's face it; kids aren't as innocent as they used to be. The balance is weakening and not only for the human world. If all fails, if the balance falls apart, who knows what kind of havoc it will cause!"

Koenma turned and retrieved some documents from the folder and gave it to Sin, it included information about his dad; his profile in some sense.

"Being a powerful demon as he is, Yukio used to help us out…keeping the environmental balance. However…when that day arrived…it all seemed to fall apart."
Sin noted the shift in Koenma's tone. She flipped another paper and a photograph fell from the file. She picked it up and gaped at the beautiful female fox demon depicted in it. She had soft features and pure eyes…she was…unearthly! "What happened?" was all she could ask when the silence was growing thicker.

"His mate was killed."

Sin's eyes seemed to be glued at the beautiful female fox...she seemed...familiar. But that couldn't be possible!

"She was killed by a group of assassins. Your father's reputation made him a well-liked person as well as someone to be scorned. His life went on a downhill spiral from there. He didn't have anything for motivation. He reverted back to his childish demeanors, he was promiscuous and apathetic. That's why he stumbled upon the human world and…haha…here we are."

Sin stayed silent. There's still something missing. "So what's that have to do with me? Why did you mention pollution?"

"Ah, I was waiting for you to ask. You see, the downfall of the worlds isn't really a bad news for most demons. They're just waiting for chaos to brake loose and then they'll take over from there. They know that Yukio won't change his ways, the man's depressed for crying out loud! However, someone can change everything. Someone has enough power to work with Yukio and stop everything." His eyes fell on Sin and she stared back.
The silence was interrupted by, "…what? You're saying I have that power?"

Koenma nodded. "Of course, you are his daughter."

"…you're kidding me…" she scoffed and put the files down. The toddler has clearly lost his mind. "What else do you suck other than that pacifier of yours? Drugs maybe? You need to cut down on the dope little guy."

Koenma wasn't, of course, entertained. "Joke around or not, you can't deny the fact that you wield the Black Rose."

"Cut the crap out! So I use a plant-"

"The Black Rose could only be controlled by Yukio, it's a powerful plant mind you. You have more power than you think! If you don't learn it, who knows what other horrible things could happened! You already know that a lot of people…demons are after you. Even your best friend has…apparently, had a change of heart. If you don't act soon, something even wors-"

The intense conversation was interrupted by a buzz at Koenma's door. It was a lady in a kimono, probably a worker, Sin thought. She entered the room once given the permission and bowed at Koenma. "Sir, new arrivals have entered the gate, they're here with their escort."

Koenma nodded and looked at Sin. "We'll be there," he said, then to Sin. "You'd best follow me."

Sin was confused but did as she was told.

"A pleasant surprise seeing you here Hiei," Kurama greeted the fire demon as he rounded up the street towards his house. The fight with the Four Saint Beasts left everyone without energy. As soon as they dropped off the two humans in Kuwabara's house, Hiei seemed to have disappeared.

Kurama was surprised to see the oni waiting for him just around the corner.

"Shut it fox," Hiei grunted. In truth, the fire demon felt horrible for forgetting Sin back in the amusement park. He was hoping that she went home and he could steal a glimpse of her from her window.

Kurama found it amusing that the fire demon had grew fond of the little fox girl. "I take it you're here to see Sin?"

Kurama received a threatening glare by the fire demon but didn't say anything. He was right; Hiei was indeed going to visit Sin. The walk was silent until something caught their attention.

This was Sin's street and just outside her gate, there appeared to be a lump on the wall…well, maybe a lump on the ground that's leaning on the wall. The two demons exchanged glances and didn't so much as blink before breaking into a run.

The light from the street lamp illuminated two figures that were sitting intertwined each other.

"Gin and Hanna?" Hiei heard Kurama whisper breathlessly. Hiei looked at the pair, noticing the stench of blood in the air as well as their bloody selves; it was obvious that blood had long stopped flowing in their veins.

Kurama seemed to think so as well for he broke into another run. Hiei followed and the jumped over the tall gate just in time to see yet another figure stooped on the front porch.

The figure straightened up and the borrowed light from the moon revealed the figure's identity.

"Emina, what are you doin-" but words escaped Kurama's lips as he took in her profile. She was drenched in blood. Her hair, which were rid of the strawberry streaks were now stained with blood, as well as her pale face. Her hands weren't an exception and they were currently preoccupied by something; she was holding a container with a long spout and by the smell of it, the two demons could guess that it was petroleum.

"You boys should step away," her voice seemed hollow, empty of any emotions. She walked gracefully down the porch step as the wind picked up, the sudden spike of demon energy took the two demons by surprise; though Hiei didn't seem to show it.

"What did you do?" Hiei's seemed to fail to reach the girl, what with the gusty winds rolling around them. But she seemed to hear for she said, "What does it look like I did?" her sweet voice mixed with malice and malevolent desires.

She didn't let them answer at all. She suddenly raised her hand as if calling onto something. One minute the sky was just the plain dark blue that's accompanied with sparkling stars, the next minute it was filled with angry storm clouds that threatened to pour down a heavy rain.

Emina looked up, her eyes flashed dangerously and in a quarter of a second, a flash of lightning fell from the sky and directly landed a striking hit. The flame was ignited by the lightning and immediately swallowed the house. Flames licked every crevice possible and no sooner, the whole house was enveloped in fire.

Kurama and Hiei moved to capture the female demon but in a blink of an eye, she was instantly enveloped in a dark mist. When it cleared, she was gone. They were left with a burning house and a heart breaking news.
