chapter 1

It was a beautiful day. The sky was a brilliant blue and the sun was shining as it hung high in the sky. Puffy white clouds were scattered throughout the breezy sky. Jin thought that the clouds somewhat resembled cottonballs that seemed quite common here in the Ningenkai. He and the other members of team Mashyoutsukai had come to the Human world to train for the upcoming dark tournament. He, Touya and Reishyo had been training with thier skills for a long time in preperation for this. Well really only Touya and Reishyo had trained, he had mostly just relaxed among the clouds, he didnt really care about training(AN~ i dont really care if they hadnt come to the ningenkai to train or if they were under a giant boulder or some stupid shit like that, in this universe they did and that is where the dark tournament is being held, because i think it was originally in the makai :-/ but i dont care so... ya read more). He had waited a long time to come to the tournament, and now was his chance. He could finally fight, see the other fighters, and hopefully win the tournament. "Jin!" he heard Touyas voice, barely audible from way up in the clouds, he would have gone down to see what they wanted, but he was to content up in the clouds. "JIN!!" touyas voice came again, louder this time, and so he fliped over to see what was happening below, Touya was standing alongside Reishyo, not far behind them were Gama and Bakuken. Standing about 30 feet from the others, looking totaly indifferent to anything that was going on, was Ruka. "JIN I KNOW YOUR UP THERE I CAN SEE YOUR HEAD, YOUR HAIR DOESNT MAKE FINDING YOU ANY MORE DIFFICULT!!!!" this time it was Reishyo who called, and hearing this he ducked himself quickly behind a cloud. "JIN HURRY UP, WE NEED TO GO NOW, WE CANT WAIT ANY LONGER OR WE'LL MISS THE TOURNAMENT!!!!" and at those words Jin soared down to the ground, "ok lets go already then." Jin said, his mop of red hair swaying in the crossbreeze.

**this place is wierd** yusuke thought as he and the other reikei tantei walked up to the hotel on the island they had just arrived on, as if the boat ride over hadn't been bad enough, they got lost on the way to the hotel, and it seemed like there was no way they would ever find it. Once they had, though, they were surprised at how nice their accomodations actually were. That is to say, how nice they were for a hotel on an island in the middle of nowhere thats filled with demons, most of whom hated them. But one demon that he had seen outside had caught his eye. He was about Yusukes hieght, with lots of red hair, a horn in the center of his forehead and pointy ears. Yusuke only let himself linger on the demon for a moment at that time, but it was odd, as he felt somehow connected to him. Odd emotions and thoughts were running back and forth inside his head. **ARGH this is ALL that demons fault, just because i saw him im all confused, but he doesnt deserve all the blame, its also that asshole Toguros fault. The next time i see him i'm going to shove my foot so far up his ass that he'll have athletes foot on the back of his mouth, if i could only...** Yusukes internal ranting was cut short by Kurama, "dont you agree, Yusuke?"

"huh, what?"

It was Hiei who piped up next, "Kurama and i believe that we should go and train but this ape..." he pointed to Kuwabara and emphasized the word 'ape' "... is too lazy and thinks we should rest before we go out."

Kurama returned to his questioning then "and i was asking if you thought we should train or rest."

"oh well... um we should... well i dont know about you but im going to get something to eat!" With that out he quickly rushed out of the room and decided to wander the halls a little bit, probably not a good idea, but he didnt really care if it was a good or bad choice, he really wanted to just walk for a bit, try and straighten out all the thoughts in his head. Despite the fact that Yusuke was trying to forget about the demon he had seen earlier, he was practiacaly praying he would see him again. Though he didnt know why...

ok so end of first chapter!!! YAY!!! oh and make sure that you R&R but no flames, im going to make the next chapter way big so dont worry, oh and at first i was going to make it so that it was only AU after like the fight with Jin, but i changed my mind and using my power as supreme god of this story im going to make it AU from the point that they even hear about the dark tournament, which means that i dont care if i got something wrong ;-)
