Chapter 2: Arrows

"We've searched the entire city!" Yusuke complained loudly. The team had split up and searched the city for the youkai thief. Now they had met in the park, the air starting to grow heavy and humid. The wind was picking up slowly, twirling around their ankles.
"I have sensed a demon presence. It's faint, but it's here in the city." Kurama said, his green eyes looking at the group calmly.
"Well, what does that mean? And how do you know that they are in the city?" Kuwabara asked blithely.
"You fool. The thief has shielded their spirit energy." Hiei snapped before Kurama could explain. His red eyes were glaring him with obvious distaste.
"Hey! You little punk!" Kuwabara yelled, putting up his fists. Hiei only smirked.
"I could slice you sixteen different ways before you could blink. Not that I would need to use my sword to handle you, oaf."
"Now! Come on! We need to work together!" Botan cried, getting between the two.
"She is right. Now, were can you think that the energy was the strongest?" Kurama asked. The two stopped bickering for a moment and thought. Yusuke looked up.
"I could feel it best around-"
SHUCKK!
Yusuke jerked away from the tree he had been leaning on, not a moment to soon. Exactly where his head had been, a long arrow was buried into the tree, the point buried deeply.
"Quick thinking, detective." Hiei said. "Look at this." He reached up and jerked the arrow out of the trunk. On the strait, thin wood was a piece of paper tied with some string. Hiei untied it and handed the note to Yusuke. Opening it, Yusuke silently mouthed the words as he read.
"Well? What does it say?" Botan asked impatiently. Yusuke looked up and began to read out loud.
"You want this gem? Come and get it. Four o'clock sharp tomorrow at the abandoned parking garage.
- Dragon's Star"
"They seem rather Gung-Ho about this, don't they?" Kurama remarked, slight amusement in his voice. Hiei nodded.
"I don't think they realize who exactly they are dealing with." he replied, a small glint in his eyes.
"Well? What do we do?" Kuwabara asked.
"Well, That's obvious. We get that gem back."
