Taking off running, Hisaki and Kurama raced towards the Hospital.
"The front entrance and back are most likely guarded," Kurama said. "The roof's our best bet."
"Got it," Hisaki said. Kurama brought out his rose whip to help him get up, while Hisaki jumped to the roof in a single bound.
"A psychic's territory, we must proceed with care," Kurama said, feeling them enter a different space on the roof. The door to the inside was locked, so Hisaki busted it down. Smelling a familiar scent, Hisaki's eyes widened.
"Follow me," she said, running through the hall ways. Kurama remained a step behind her. They both were destroying insects that had infested the Hospital as they moved. Hisaki noticed two people about to be attacked by the bugs and shot a fire ball at the bugs, incinerating them.
"Hisaki? Kurama?" Shizuru asked.
"What on earth are you two doing here?" Kurama asked.
"What's wrong with Keiko?" Hisaki asked, kneeling down.
"One of those bugs stung her," Shizuru said. "Genkai told us we'd be safe in the elevator, but they got in."
"Well it's alright now," Kurama said. They heard glass shattering below and Kurama went to the window. "Looks like Yusuke took care of the psychic." Keiko's green skin turned back to it's normal shade. Hisaki helped Keiko stand up.
"Thank you, Hisaki, Kurama," Keiko said. She seemed perfectly healthy now.
"That must've been this psychic's ability," Kurama muttered in Hisaki's ear. She nodded in agreement.
"Let's go see the others," Hisaki said. Finding them wasn't too hard. Everyone had regrouped downstairs.
"Well this certainly is a reunion," Kurama said, walking towards them. His arm was around Hisaki's waist.
"Hey, sis. Why're you here? You sick?" Kuwabara asked.
"Yeah, bro. Sick of tracking you down. What trouble are you in?" Shizuru asked.
"Keiko?" Yusuke asked, noticing the brown haired girl. Yusuke hit Puu on the head. "Damn it, Puu. You're like their get into danger tour guide."
"Don't you blame this on him, Yusuke," Keiko said. "We only came because we were worried about you."
"Human curiosity flared up. I suggest we leave or else be involved in a crime scene," Hisaki said, hearing the sirens.
"I'll stay here and make sure Kido and Yana get good treatment," Kaito said.
"Right," Yusuke said. The rest of them ran out of the Hospital.
The next day Kurama told Hisaki he was going to the Reikai, so she didn't bother with going to school. Hisaki spent the day tracking, but then it started raining.
"Well there goes my lead," Hisaki said annoyed. "Better go see the others. I can hear Yusuke whining from here."
Jumping across the roof tops, Hisaki landed on Yusuke's balcony.
"Give me a break! What'd you mean they're missing?!" Yusuke yelled.
"They didn't come to school today," Kaito said.
"Hiei, then Kuwabara, and now Kurama and Hisaki?!" Yusuke yelled. "You can't count on anybody! I just need to do this alone!" Hisaki chucked a remote at his head.
"Untrustworthy am I?" she asked, shaking off the rain in a dog-like manner. "I was tracking and I had a lead until the rain washed the scent away. Kurama had an errand to run."
"Now that we know where these psychic's are hiding, we can mount an attack, but it must be carefully planned," Genkai advised.
"I've heard of Demon's door Cave, it's like an urban legend," Yana said.
"It's said scorned lovers go there to die. It shows our enemies like irony," Kaito said. "If we go unprepared, it will be unwise as well."
"Damn it! I can't take it anymore! I'm going out," Yusuke said, storming out.
"Hang on, Yusuke. I'll go with you," Hisaki said. She followed him and he brought her to a place with flashing lights and strange sounds. "What is this place?"
"Don't tell me you've never been to an arcade before," Yusuke said.
"I say again, we don't have … luxuries in the Makai," Hisaki said, choosing her words. "And Kurama's never brought me here."
"Well come on, you have to play Goblin City with me," he said. "Okay the goal of the Game is to defeat the Goblin King with your six comrades and save the princess."
The first few tries Hisaki lost, but after a while she got the hang of it. Even making it to the end of the game, which surprised Yusuke. After an hour or two, they got bored and went back to his apartment. Hisaki felt something strange, but, since Yusuke didn't feel anything, she brushed it off. Their welcoming was less than pleasant.
"DIMWITS!!" Genkai yelled, knocking them both out of the apartment.
"What the hell's your problem old lady?" Yusuke yelled.
"I thought you were leaving the group to look after Kuwabara!" Genkai yelled.
"I said I was going out to the arcade, Ms. Senile!" Yusuke yelled.
"How old are you?!" Genkai asked. "Kuwabara's by himself right now and killers are stalking us ergo you choose to play pinball!"
"It's his fault! He shouldn't have left me hanging for some stupid pop band!" Yusuke yelled. "Why would they waste their time on a non-fighter?"
"Wait, he's alone?" Hisaki asked, connecting the dots. "Yusuke, he hasn't lost his power. It just hasn't awakened yet."
"Notice your friend's energy next time you see him. It's like a hatching egg," Genkai said. "Kuwabara's gifted with unparalleled Spirit awareness. I believe his body sensed the danger months ago and began to prepare for it without him consciously knowing."
"And if the enemy's realized this, he'll be the first target," Hisaki finished.
"Well thanks for telling me so soon!" Yusuke said running off. Botan followed him.
"Should I follow too?" Hisaki asked.
"No, the dimwit should do this for himself," Genkai said. "I can't blame you for his stupidity."
Later that night, Yusuke and Botan brought Kuwabara and another kid back.
"Is he one of the seven?" Genkai asked.
"Kuwabara managed to say his name was Seaman," Botan said. Hisaki sniffed the boy.
"Kuwabara may have just helped us," she said. "I can smell 5 other unrecognized scents on him which means I can track them down easy."
"Good," Genkai said. The sun was already rising. "Can I ask you to miss school and get a general location on them."
"Sure thing," Hisaki said, going to the balcony and jumping off into the city. Sifting through the scents in the air, she finally found two scents she was looking for. The strange thing is they were above her. Hisaki's head whipped up to see two men, both with dark hair.
"So this is the infamous Hisaki the fox demon?" one asked.
"Hasn't aged a day since I saw her last 18 years ago," the other said. Hisaki looked closely at the second one, before recognition flashed in her eyes.
"It's you," she said. His energy flared around him in a controlled way, so only he and Hisaki could feel it. Her eyes widened as she buckled under the pressure. "This strength. It's S-class."
"Now Sniper," he said. Something flew at Hisaki faster than she could react and entered her abdomen.
"It'll take more than a bullet to take me out," she said, still straining under the energy. Suddenly her vision blurred.
"It wasn't a bullet," Sniper said. "It was the extract of an icy plant found only in the Makai."
Her eyes widened as she felt her temperature cool. Hisaki's naturally heated body convulsed from the rapid temperature decrease and the energy still being exerted on her. The two figures stood over the vixen as she fell unconscious.
