Hey, guys! I'm back. Hope you enjoy this chapter!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Claimer: I do own my OCs.

Also, thanks so, so, much for the reviews! I'm really happy I'm getting them – I didn't expect this story to get reviews, you know? Thanks! And be prepared for an extra-long chapter!

When I reached home, I immediately flopped on the bed, a bit tired. Climbing those stairs hurt…and plus, mom and Yusuke weren't home, so I could finally sleep in peace.

I felt my eyes close.

"Be careful…you shouldn't trust demons so easily, you know?"

I looked up and saw a red-haired woman…with cat ears and a tail. I yelped. "Cat?!"

"Cat demon," she corrected, smiling. She snapped her fingers and a staff popped next to her. Her clothes changed – she was wearing a black kimono.

I sweat dropped. "You're a demon…so I shouldn't trust you."

She shook her head furiously. "No, no, no! You can trust me! Just don't trust Kurama and Hiei! And any other demon you may come across!"

"Why shouldn't I trust them?" I snapped.

"I can't tell you – I mean, like, I'm not allowed to tell you – I mean – UGHH!"

I woke up from the stupid dream just to see that it was just 12:30 pm. Ugh…I hate the bitch for irritating me with a stupid dream.

"I hate cats," I grumbled under my breath as I went down to the kitchen to grab a bite to eat. I took my secret packet of pocky and put one in my mouth. I stumbled to the living room to watch some television.

I took the remote, changed the channel and flopped on the couch, looking at the movie which was playing with bored eyes.

It was about zombies invading the world. Boring. I groaned. "Isn't there anything fucking interesting on TV?!"

Then, I heard a knock on my door. I groaned again. Why is someone knocking now? I'm feeling too lazy to go and open the door…

The person knocked again, and I grumbled, getting up from my comfortable spot on the couch.

I went to the door, and opened it, seeing…

"Kurama? Hiei?" I gasped.

"Oh…hey, Shiro, you're quite a sight," Kurama commented nonchalantly.

My eyebrow twitched angrily. You're quite a sight? THAT'S WHAT YOU SAY WHEN YOU LURE ME AWAY FROM MY COMFORTABLE SPOT ON THE COUCH?!

I glared at him, and attempted to shut the door, but Hiei stopped me. "Don't shut the door. There's a demon in your house."

I blinked. Wait…what? There was a demon?! Oh, hell no! I don't want that snake demon again!

I quickly opened the door again, and smiled politely. "Oh, please come in, Kurama-san, Hiei-san."

Both smirked slightly and came inside.

"Your house is quite a mess," Kurama remarked.

I nodded sheepishly. "Mom drinks."

"Ah."

Hiei stayed silent the whole time.

"Would you like anything to drink or to eat?" I asked politely.

"No thank you," Kurama smiled.

Six months had passed since Genkai's little tournament. Much to my chagrin, Yusuke had won Genkai's tournament and we'd become partners. He'd found out about me being Genkai's disciple and he was pissed.

Fortunately, Genkai shut up him by knocking him out.

So, for six months, Genkai had put us through torture – abso-fucking-lute torture. Hell, she even made us work together as a team to defeat her! What the fuck?!

And no, I do not suddenly think of Yusuke as my best bro ever. I abhor him. I detest him. I resent him. I hate him, I really do.

When I got back home (AT LAST!), I immediately flopped on the bed and had a nice nap. I was tired.

"Shiro Urameshi."

I looked to see…a baby. A baby. "What do you want, kiddo?"

His eyebrow twitched. "I'M NOT A KID!"

Really? He sure looks like it. I gazed at him skeptically. "You sure, kiddo?"

"I'M NOT A KID!"

"Okay, kiddo, what do you want? Who are you?"

"I am Koenma, leader of the Spirit World."

My eyes widened in realization. "Oh~! Yeah, I think Botan or Yusuke talked about you!"

He nodded. "Yes. I want you to become a Spirit Detective along with Yusuke since you are Genkai's apprentice."

Nope. Nu-uh. I'm never gonna join Yusuke. I crossed my arms. "Pfft…nu-uh. Are you kidding me?! Nope. Never ever." I scoffed. "Why would I join him?! Nope. My answer is a no."

Koenma sighed. "I'm afraid you don't have a choice."

I woke up looking into the eyes of…

"BOTAN?!" I shrieked.

"Bingo!" she winked at me. "That's my name! You must be Shiro Urameshi, Yusuke's sister, am I right?"

I nodded. "Y-Yeah…" I looked around. I was in a room…that wasn't mine. "Where am I?"

"Oh, you're in my bedroom~!"

"So…what am I doing here?"

"Oh, I have something to tell you, since you're a part of the Spirit Detective team!"

I glared at her. "I never agreed to it."

"I'm sorry…I can't help it. We needed an extra. In fact, Kurama suggested you."

"Kurama?" I blinked. How dare he…that asshole… My eyebrow twitched. "Asshole."

"Yep," she popped her 'p'. "Now, let me tell you…"

Then she told a whole lot of bullshit about insects and them invading the human world by entering inside people's bodies so they'll become zombies. There was a force called the Saint Beasts that were controlling them in the demon world so we needed to defeat the Saint Beasts.

"So?" Botan finished explaining.

"Not interested," I answered emotionlessly.

"You don't have a choice."

My eyebrow twitched as I glared at her. "THEN WHAT WAS THE POINT OF ASKING?"

"Now that, is teamwork," Botan stated smirking. I face palmed. "Botan, you could've used a more refined way of taking him down instead of using a baseball bat." She shrugged. "That was the only thing I had on me."

Yusuke and Kuwabara gaped at us. I glared at both of them. "What the fuck do you want? Stop staring. I get it that you're pissed I joined the team, but even I'm pissed! I was forced into this!"

"BOTAN? SHIRO?" Yusuke yelled, surprised.

Kuwabara's face turned pink. "Hey, it's the pretty girl…and Urameshi's sis." I glared at him angrily. "WHY DON'T YOU FUCKING REFER TO ME AS SHIRO?! I HAVE A NAME!"

Kuwabara bowed apologetically. "I'm sorry, Shiro…"

I shrugged. "It's fine…"

"I've been shadowing that one since it slipped through the barrier a few days ago," Botan informed. "And Shiro's been helping me."

Yusuke snorted. "Shiro? Help? Nope. They don't go in a sentence."

I glared at him. "Yusuke, would you like me to burn off your balls?"

He shivered. "NOOO!"

"That's what I thought."

"So…what is he?" Kuwabara asked curiously.

"He looks he's been exposed to a nuclear plant," Yusuke commented. "He looks like a crocodile…or a giant lizard," I piped up.

"I'm quite certain he's a spy from the place we're going to for the next mission," Botan stated.

"OKAY, BOTAN! You can stop right there!" Yusuke yelled. "I got back from Grandma's evil boot camp today and I deserve a VACATION!"

I sighed, crossing my arms. "Even I got back from 'Genkai's evil boot camp' today. No complaining, Yusuke. I'm going through the same thing." He ignored me and continued to yell at Botan. Botan then explained the mission to Yusuke. He seemed to calm down then.

We then went to a place where Yusuke and Kuwabara had knocked out the zombies. I shuddered in disgust. There were insects crawling out of their MOUTHS. "Ew…" I groaned. "I can never look at another insect normally without puking in disgust."

"I know, it's gross," Kuwabara agreed. Botan then told the same things about the insects she told me to Yusuke.

I ignored the rest of the conversation, focusing on the manga in my hands.

Botan opened the door, and I coughed from the amount of dust there. We walked down the stairs and reached the ground. Botan started banging on the floor.

"Banging on the floors of a random warehouse," Yusuke remarked. "Seems like fun to me."

"This is where they were supposed to put the hole in the barrier," Botan informed. She banged twice on the floor, and a trapdoor opened in front.

"Bingo," she murmured. I sweat dropped. Bingo seems like it's her catchphrase. She opened the trapdoor, and we all looked inside. It was filled with…green air. I scrunched my nose in disgust. "Ew."

"Shut up, Shiro," Yusuke snapped. I glared at him. "You shut up."

"Um…are you gonna give us a rope ladder?" I asked hopefully.

"No…jumping down should land you safely," Botan muttered. We all gaped at her. "WHAT?!"

She looked at Kuwabara. "You know you don't have to go through with this. No one will hold it against you." I WISH SHE SAID THAT TO ME!

"Oh…okay," Yusuke grinned. "Goodbye." He started walking. Botan glared at him, and put her leg out. Yusuke tripped over it. I snickered. He glared at me. "Shut up, bitch!"

Then, Kuwabara jumped in. We all gasped and looked inside. I felt nauseous…I forgot I have a fear of heights momentarily. I quickly stepped back.

"He really jumped," Botan gasped.

"Maybe…he'll be okay alone," Yusuke murmured. Maybe…it's time for me to make my escape. I seriously don't want to do this. I'm…scared. There's…there's no one for me to rely on. I've lost Yusuke's trust – not that I ever wanted it. I don't have anyone to rant to…I'm so weak…I wish I wasn't scared.

"Shiro?" Botan said. I snapped out of my daze. "Yeah?" Yusuke wasn't there – maybe he was already gone down the portal.

"Are you ready to go in?" I sighed, looking down at my shoes. "I-I honestly don't know…I'm scared. What if I die? What if…they turn on me? Yusuke hates me…even I hate him. Kuwabara…he'd probably listen to Yusuke. What do I do?"

"You know…Kurama and Hiei are in there," she told me…before pushing me into the hole.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAA~!" I shrieked as I fell down the tunnel. "FUCK YOU KOENMA! FUCK YOU BOTAN!"

Then I stopped. No, just stopped. I felt like I was sitting on something. I opened my eyes to see Hiei staring at me. "Hiei-san?!"

"Hn."

"Shiro?!" Yusuke yelled. I glared at them. "Why the fuck are you surprised, dimwit?! Didn't I say that Koenma recruited me?!"

"I…didn't believe you," Yusuke admitted, glaring at me. "I mean, you lie all the time, so…" That jerk. I hate Yusuke. I hate him. I wish he'd just die. Hiei put me down – wait, I was sitting on his arms, bridal style?! My face heated up. "U-Um…I'm s-s-s-sorry, H-H-Hiei-san…thanks, though…" I trailed off. Hiei simply looked at me. "Hn. Don't do it again."

Then I glared at Kurama. He seemed taken aback when he saw my gaze. "Is there anything you need?"

I cracked my knuckles. "Now, Kurama…why'd you say I was fit to be a Spirit Detective to Koenma?!"

He looked at me, amusement in his eyes. "Why, because you were the only one who knew about the Spirit World in Meiou…and the closest, so I decided you were fit to be one."

My eyebrow twitched. "Ku-ra-ma?"

"Yes – how about we take this for later and focus on the mission?"

I glared at him.

When we reached, I saw a rather spooky gateway. I shuddered. "Scary…"

"Oh…now this place is homey," Yusuke commented sarcastically.

"So we're just gonna walk right in?" Kuwabara questioned.

"I guess…" I said. "We have no choice."

"I say we better have them come out and fight us!" Kuwabara exclaimed. No offense Kuwabara…but you're bad at strategizing.

Hiei scoffed, "Your sense of strategy is amazing."

Kuwabara glared at Hiei. "Are you talking to me, runt boy?!"

"Let's go," Yusuke snapped, irritated. "And Shiro, shut up for the rest of the journey." WHAT THE FUCK DID HE JUST SAY?

I glared daggers at him. "I will not." I elbowed him sharply on the ribs. He groaned. "Ouch! What was that for?!" "You shut up." We walked inside.

Suddenly, an…eye-bat came in front of us. Everyone halted and I shrieked. "EW! GROSS!"

"Welcome to Maze Castle," it stated in an annoying nasally voice. My eyebrow twitched.

"Whoa – it talked," Kuwabara said.

"Those who enter Maze Castle, must be tried by the Gate of Betrayal," it informed. My eyebrow twitched again.

"What do you mean, tried?!" Yusuke questioned cautiously. It flew away, and came to a stop in front of a…switch. It switched on the…switch, and the ground started shaking.

"Uh…what's happening?" I murmured.

"The ceiling!" Kurama warned and the ceiling started falling down. We quickly stopped it from falling down, by supporting it by our hands. It felt…pleasurable. The pain…oh, my…it felt so, so, so good…I panted. Everyone looked at me curiously. "What happened?"

My legs trembled. Oh, my God…fuck….it feels good. "Oh…" I moaned. "This feels…oh, my…it feels so good~!"

"GOOD?!" Kuwabara and Yusuke chorused.

"Hn," Hiei grunted.

Kurama looked at me. "So…the bullying is helpful?"

I nodded, not answering…since it was so, so, good… I moaned. "Ugh…you sound like you're being fucked," Yusuke groaned in disgust. "Shiro…you're creepy…" I don't care whether I'm creepy…this feels good!

I ignored what the eye was saying and focused on the pleasure.

Hey guys! Oh, my God – this is about 2300 words! Anyways, hope you aren't creeped out by Shiro loving pain (this is an important factor). Please review, it makes me update sooner!
