"Some how, I sense that you're not telling the truth." Kurama said while looking Saku straight in the eyes. Saku didn't reply, she just turned her head away. "Exactly, what do you think I'm lying about?" Saku asked. "I think you're lying about what kind of race you guys are?" answered Kurama. Just then there was an explosion and a maniac-like laugh. Hotaru scowled at the voice knowing it all to well. "So, you three finally awakened from your eternal slumber.?.?" the voice stated more than asked. "Yeah, what's it to you?" Hotaru asked annoyed. "Snotty, just as always!" the man replied to Hotaru. Hotaru scowled, "Thank you, I take that as a complement! I may be snotty, but at least I'm nothing like you!" The man walked out of the shadows to reveal a tall man with ancient clothes on. He had jet-black hair and gold eyes. "Oh, but you are! You kill for no reason just like me!" the man said before laughing insanely. Hotaru scowled, "That's not true and you know it! If I was like you I would have killed my brother, my sisters, and my parents!" "Saruku!" Koharu stated angrily. "Who's he?" Yusuke asked. "He's the one responsible for us being cryogenically frozen or as some people like to call it, suspended animation." Saku answered. "He's also our greedy, power hungry, jerk of an uncle!" Hotaru added, disgusted written all over her voice. Everyone raises a brow in amazement. "You say that like it's a bad thing!" Saruku said while smirking evilly. Saruku decided that he was tired of talking, so he created an electric ball in his right hand and threw it at Yusuke. Koharu made a motion with her hand and the gold crystal appeared in front of Yusuke and reflected it back at Saruku. He dodged it by the moving his head to the side. Saruku smiled evilly, "Well, you still have the same attitude, but you know that all of this was all a trap! Well, a better way of putting it is, a distraction!" "What are you talking about?" Hotaru said coldly. "Look around!" Saruku answered. Everyone did so. Then they noticed what he was talking about, Botan was gone. Then they looked back at Saruku, he was holding Botan by her wrist, then he slowly faded away laughing maniacally. There was a long silence, then Kurama spoke up. "I think we should get back home and discuss what our further on plans will be!" Everyone nodded, except for Hotaru and Towamaru. Everyone looked at them. "I've got unfinished business to take care of, then I'll meet you guys!" Hotaru said while disappearing in a black-sparkly light.

Hotaru arrived at the gate to Koenma's castle, she went inside to find a guard standing in her way. "Who are you and do you have an appointment?" the guard asked Hotaru. "I don't need one. I'm a special friend of Koenma's!" Hotaru said the last part smirking evilly. "I don't care if your related, you're not getting in unless you have an invitation or if I've heard that your were coming!" the guard said while walking toward Hotaru. Hotaru scowled, "I'm sorry that you feel that way!" Then Hotaru clenched her right hand into a fist, and punched the guard in the stomach. he fell over unconscious. Hotaru walked right over the guard and into the long hallway. When Hotaru finally got to the end of the hallway, she stepped into the office. All of Koenma's workers immediately froze, knowing all to well who she was. Ogre, had just walked into the room, "Lady Hotaru!" Ogre said surprised, his voice full of fear. "Where's Koenma, Ogre?" Hotaru asked annoyed and demanding. "H-he's in a v-ver-ry i-import-tant m-meet-ting!" Ogre barely stuttered out. "I don't care, tell... never mind, I'll find him myself!" then Hotaru turned down the hall and ran into Koenma. "HEY, WATCH WHE...uh, hey sis! Where have you been?" Koenma asked scared, stupidly, and cowardly. Hotaru looked at Koenma annoyed and spiteful, "In Egypt!" "I heard that Egypt is very warm!" Koenma said while gulping. "In a tomb, for 1,000 years! Trapped in an eternal sleep! Where have you been?" Hotaru said annoyed. Koenma gulped and ran, knowing that he would never get away from his older sister. Hotaru disappeared, then reappeared in front of Koenma. She grabbed the collar of his shirt and lifted him into the air, "I feel so... upset with you!" "Y-you do?" Koenma asked through the death grip. "Yes, as a matter of fact I do, because you sent your week spirit detective and his friends after me, knowing that I could crush them in the palm of my hand! You should know me better than that!" Hotaru answered in a cold, hateful, and some what sad voice. "S-sorry, I won't make that mistake again!" Koenma stuttered out. A few seconds later guards surrounded them both. "Call them off now, or ELSE!" Hotaru demanded. Koenma gulped, not wanting to find out what the ELSE part meant, so he called off the guards. Hotaru set him down. "It's ok, expect this a lot! She's my sister, the goddess of dark-ice, and one of three princesses of the spirit world!" Koenma said to the guards. They bowed and left. "The first thing I want to know is, why do you think that just because we've been put in an eternal sleep that you can proclaim yourself as the protector, holder, and keeper of the dark, gold, and silver crystals?" Hotaru said furiously, "By the way, your assistant has been captured! I believe her name was Botan!" ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
