~Chapter 7 The Grim Reaper and the Four Inquisitors
"Hiei? Are you sure this is the right way!" Keiko yelled at the black haired apparition that
was leading them towards one of the entryways to the Rei-kai. They were sacred sites most of
them some more concealed than others were. This was one of the off ones. It made one think
of the sanctity of the Rei-kai was merely a facade. They had some how ended up walking through the
red light district much to the dismay of the humans in the group.
"Quiet Keiko or I'll leave you here alone. I think he's looking for a new girl." The Jaganshi
points to a rather homely looking man dressed in a fine black Armani suit. He was encircled by
a group of women, all of whom seemed to be quite attractive. It was clear the profession that
that man dabbled in was that of a lecherous nature.
"Hey don't talk to her like that shrimp or..." The next thing Kuwabara knew was the fist of
Shizuru meeting the back of his head. This earned Kuwabara a scoff from Hiei, a giggle from
Keiko, and the obvious bump on the back of his head by Shizuru.
"He's being nice enough to take us there Keiko, though it does seem odd that there would
be an entrance here. I though these places were in shrines or off in some unknown area of the
wilderness.
"Landmarks change." Hiei states before he stops in front of a rather decrepit building. Its
front door seemed to be held up by rope. With absolutely no effort from the small youkai, he
moves the door to the side before stepping into the building. He noticed a bright flash and
something coming at him rather quickly and jumps to the side as the others have to duck out
of the way.
"Ah... so terribly sorry, I didn't see you there. Oh Just the two men I am looking for.
Koenma sent me to get you two boys." They all look up at the familiar bubbly voice and notice
Botan floating above them in full kimono perched upon her oar. They all look around and
notice that not one person around them has noticed the actual scene. It is apparent that only
they can see her.
"What does that baby want with us now Botan?" Kuwabara states as everyone, including
Hiei piles themselves upon Botan's oar if Koenma was looking for the Hiei and Kuwabara, then
it was only logical that he has already summoned Yusuke, or that is the next place Botan was
heading.
"Come on now get on Kuwabara we don't have all day." The blue haired ferry girl states
slightly agitated at the fact that he has yet to board. The other three stared at the red haired
buffoon likewise agitated. Kuwabara then boards the Oar in front of Shizuru and directly
behind Botan Sitting behind Shizuru is Keiko and standing at the end is the Jaganshi arms
crossed with an apathetic look upon his face. He has now realized why he could not sense
Yusuke's presence in the Ningenkai.
Botan whips her oar around swiftly before flying back into the portal. The girls look down
at the river Styx their eyes taking in the full disturbing, yet beautiful landscape of the Rei-kai
then something dawns on Keiko.
"So Yusuke is already here and I guess Kurama is here too. Do they have a new case
then Botan?" Angrily states the concerned girl friend. Typical Yusuke, dumping her for the
chance at a fight she was so going to yell at him when he saw him.
"Well...eh...not exactly." Botan yells at her self mentally for saying that because she now
knew that they would drain her of everything she knew before Koenma could tell them
himself.
"Spill it Botan." Shizuru firmly states. If anything, the tone of her voice would get the
information out. It worked most of the time, and maybe it would work now.
"Fine fine. Koenma sent me to get Yusuke because Oh how do I say this um..." She is
then cut off by the voice at the end of her Oar.
"He found out the truth about Shuuichi and Kurama and wished to detain them." He
reveled in the fact that he seemed to be the all knowing one about the fox, though he felt it
might give them the wrong impression about them. He had only known about the duel
inhabitation a few days, he figured that they would think he has known for ages.
"Yeah. Exactly Shuuichi ran and that is when Koenma sent me after Yusuke. I hope they
are all right. I mean Yusuke caught him but Koenma sent Me and Kuroneko after the Gaki
Dama." Botan's eyes get a little watery as her voice wavers. She is obviously disturbed, by the
situation.
"Question! What is this Gaki Dama?" Shizuru lifts her hand indicating that she is the one
that spoke.
"Oh its uh nothing really, just some green ball that sucks souls out of living bodies that
all." Botan is now very nervous feeling she has told the girls too much.
"Hey wait Botan you mean he's going to use that thing on Kurama!" Kuwabara almost
stands up on the Oar before Shizuru pulls him back down. Botan almost looses Control of her
oar; luckily, they are all able to hold on as she corrects her trajectory.
"Shut up! No more questions until we reach Koenma-sama!" Botan angrily states, all
these questions were driving her nuts. It was almost as if she were taking a toddler spirit, and
even they were not as troublesome.
The rest of the trip was silent as she flew into Koenma's office via its window. The five
persons that were seated upon the oar treated to an eye full when they entered the office.
There was Shuuichi tied to a chair his emerald eyes menacingly fixated on a loose soul in the
middle of the room that now was crackling dark youki, fain true but it seemed to be building.
Koenma had reverted to his toddler form and was currently working on paper work, while
Yusuke was leaning on a wall not that far from Shuuichi keeping an eye on him as apposed the
disenfranchised soul that seemed to be building power. George had awakened and was now
standing in his typical spot watching the soul nervously.
"So who is who?" Kuwabara is the first off the oar though he is perturbed by the ominous
looking soul in the middle of the office. Shizuru has a similar look about her, though she is
calmly walking over to the desk instead.
"YUSUKE! Why didn't you at least call me? I was worried about you!" Keiko quickly
removes herself from the oar grabbing the attention of everyone in the room. Shuuichi and
Kuwabara remove their gazes from the soul, Shizuru turns around, and Koenma and George
change their line of vision, as do Botan and Hiei. They all cringe at the loud slap across the
face she gives the taiyoukai. She then smugly walks to an empty chair and sits crossing her
arms over her chest and looking away angry. Everyone then returns to what they he or she
were doing each making a mental note not to anger Keiko.
