I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho. I only own Hope and Kayla and Mamoru and any other original character I create.

Story start

I opened my eyes and smiled at Genkai. "Have you found your dragon?" Genkai asked as I stood up and stretched out my sleeping muscles.

I nodded and said, "His name is Mamoru and he's pretty cool for a dragon." I looked over at Genkai after hearing her gasp in surprise. I never expected to hear Genkai gasp. Well I don't really know her so jumping to conclusions on what she will or will not do is not very nice.

"Did you say Mamoru?" Genkai asked approaching me slowly.

"Yes," I said with a nod of my head.

"Wait right here," Genkai said before hastily running out of the room. I tilted my head in confusion before walking around the room. As I walked around the room, I heard a beeping sound and then I heard Koenma's voice.

"What is it Genkai?" Koenma asked annoyed. It sounded like he was stressed out.

"I hope the guys are doing alright," I thought as I fiddled with my claws.

"Hope is the dragon demon of Mamoru. Mamoru, the great destructor," Genkai said quietly, but my heightened hearing still caught what she said.

"Mamoru, you never told me you were a great destructor," I thought inside my head to Mamoru.

"You never asked," Mamoru answered and I rolled my eyes.

"That isn't something you keep from your master and it doesn't matter if I ask or not," I thought and Mamoru just breathed out some fire and I felt my body heat up.

"Sorry, I'll tell you other things next time," Mamoru said before curling into a ball and sleeping. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. I crossed my arms over my chest and leaned against one of the walls as I listened to the rest of Genkai's and Koenma's conversation.

"Are you sure?" Koenma asked seriously.

"Yes, she just told me that Mamoru is inside of her," Genkai said snappily.

"What is so bad about having Mamoru inside me?" I thought confused as I felt myself go alert.

"Do you think the dragon will take control of her at some point and try to destroy the three worlds again like he tried with his last host?" Genkai asked with worry in her voice.

"Great, I get stuck with the world domination dragon," I thought and Mamoru laughed.

"Not world domination, world destruction," he said and I shushed him.

I sighed and summoned a ball of fire to throw from hand to hand to amuse myself while listening in on the conversation.

Koenma sighed and said, "I don't know. Just watch her and I'll send the team over to watch her at different times after the tournament. Until then just keep her doing simple tests and training so she will not have to use too much of her power."

I glared at my claws as I heard Genkai agree. "Well that sounds boring, just because I have a dangerous dragon in me I have to do weak stuff. They are crazy if they think I'm going to let Mamoru take control of me," I thought as I started pacing the room.

"You think you are stronger than me?" Mamoru asked and I nodded. "Silly master," Mamoru said as he tried to stop me from moving. I growled and kept moving. Mamoru tried to make fire appear around me, but I kept it inside me.

"Will you stop? That is annoying," I said as I went to walk out of the room.

"Stop what?" Genkai asked when I opened the door. Mamoru laughed inside as he went to sleep. I sighed and gave Genkai a smile.

"There was a fly buzzing around my head and it wouldn't go away," I said quickly coming up with a lie. Genkai eyed me wearily and nodded. It hurt to see her look at me like that. I sighed and told her I was going outside for a breather.

Genkai moved out of my way and I stepped outside. I flew up to the top of a tree and sat down on a thick branch. I growled a little when I sensed Genkai watching me. "I'm not going to do anything. I heard what you and Koenma said and I'm not happy about it. Mamoru is not going to control me, so you can stop worrying about me going all world destruction," I said as I ran my claws on one of the branches.

Genkai sighed and walked away. I smiled and then I growled once again when a portal appeared and the guys stepped out of the portal. I jumped into the air and surveyed the guys as they asked where I was. However Hiei and Kurama looked straight up at me. I glared at them and Hiei glared back.

"Come on Hope, come down here, we won't hurt you," Kurama said in a polite voice.

"I'm not coming down there if you all think I can't control my inner dragon. I'm in control and I don't want to be locked away just because you don't trust me," I said as I flapped my wings and flew a little higher.

Kurama sighed and then he looked up at me with gold eyes. He reached into his hair and pulled out a rose. I looked at him confused but glared at the rose. "Now now, come down here to Kurama," Kurama said as he made the rose extend out to a whip.

My eyes widened before growling at the whip. A smirk appeared on Kurama's lips and I could smell a fox demon aura coming from him.

I dodged his whip when he swung it at me. "Leave me alone," I said with a growl. Kurama just smirked at me and flicked his whip at me again.

"Don't worry Hope, we won't hurt you," Kuwabara said as he and Yusuke finally noticed that I was flying up in the air. I rolled my eyes and flew a little higher. I smiled when Kurama's whip was no longer able to reach me.

I smirked at Kurama when he realized his whip could not reach me. He looked over at Hiei and Hiei gave a small smirk and a nod of his head. "What are they planning?" I thought as I stayed in place in the sky.

Hiei smirked as Kurama crouched down and Hiei jumped on his shoulders and then jumped high in the air. I yelped in surprise as he jumped as high as I was flying. I flew to the side and tried to dodge him, but he grabbed one of my wings. I growled at the pain from his weight.

I flew down and flicked my wing so he would let go of my wing. "That hurt you fatso," I said as I went to fly back into the air. However a whip was wrapped around me and my wings before I could move. I growled and tried to shake out of the hold of the whip, but that only got me a few scratches from the thorns.

"She just called you fat shrimp," Kuwabara said to Hiei and laughed. Hiei scoffed and hit Kuwabara on the top of his head. I laughed and then stopped laughing when the whip pulled me into two strong arms. I looked up and saw two gold eyes and red hair peering down at me.

"You weren't supposed to catch me," I said to Kurama. Kurama laughed and then lowered his face closer to mine.

"Then you'll have to learn to run away faster, because it's very hard for many to run away from a great thief like me," Kurama said and I stared at him curiously.

"Ok I'm confused and I think you have some explaining to do," I said poking Kurama's chest. Kurama's eyes returned to their normal jade color and he gave me a sheepish smile.

"Um I'll explain later, but first we need to take you to Koenma," Kurama said as he released me from his whip, which turned back into a rose. I stretched out my wings and flicked off the blood from the small cuts that the thorns caused. "Sorry," Kurama said looking at the small scratches.

"It's alright," I said before stepping through the portal that had appeared.
