AN: Well hello again! Thanks to all who review for me I love you! And if I could draw I'd send you lovely pics or some sort of present but since I can't I'll just have to settle with a chapter update. ~sigh~
Disclaimer: I own Holly Summers and the race of Sirine, However Yu Yu Hakusho is not owned but me and sadly probably never will.

'Waiting,' Kurama thought. 'What am I waiting for? I don't understand these thoughts... am I the one waiting? No. No, it has to be Holly's mind that's waiting. What is she waiting for? Should I tell Yuusuke? Or Hiei? No just wait a little longer then we'll be ready. Who is we?'
Kurama was so lost in his own thoughts he barely felt the shift into the Spirit World until the answer to his question hit him like a bucket of ice water. That's exactly what Holly had been waiting for! Alarms started blaring in Kurama's mind yet he found it impossible to speak.
He opened his mouth to shout and still no sound came. The door to Enma's castle was opened and Kuwabara and Yuusuke stepped boldly forward through the gates. It seemed like years past in that one second as Kurama fought for his voice and yet it was too late. It was in that one second that Holly's prone form suddenly twisted from her position slung over Kuwabara's shoulder to throwing the oaf over her own.
Yuusuke managed to point a shot at the girl but already she was moving. Hiei drew his sword and Kurama ran to Kuwabara to check on his fallen comrade. Ken also tried to take a shot at her but only ended up almost shooting Botan when the bells that bound him pulled his aim away from Holly. Botan then took to hiding behind Keiko.
"I thought that was a little easy the way we caught you," Yuusuke smiled evilly. "But you should know we warded you, you can't do anything to us."
A pout suddenly spread across Holly's face, "Oh gee, I can't use my own power..." Her erupted into a broad grin. "Good thing I never used mine to begin with." With that she was surrounded suddenly by all of her bells, more in fact then before.
The palace alarms began to go off and the gates tried to close. Holly smirked a second while looking over her shoulder. "Looks like I don't have time to play with you boys right now. I'll be back after I kill Enma." With that she ran threw yet another pair of castle gates just as they were closing.
Hiei and Yuusuke were the first to reach the door after the Sirine at which point the Oni on the other side had already closed the door.
"Open this door back up you stupid Oni! You let the bad person in and locked the people trying to catch her out! Stupid-Jerks, Half-Witted-Pea-Brained-Sons-Of-Bitches," and Yuusuke's language got very colorful from there.
Kurama blanched at some of the other things that flew from Yuusuke's mouth until the gate was finally reopen once the Onis realized their mistake. "We're sorry, Sir!"
"You're going to be if she gets to Enma before we do!" Yuusuke cursed some more under his breath.
Keiko rolled her eyes at her boyfriend, "I don't think she'll do anything that bad."
""I'll be back after I kill Enma" is not 'that bad'?" Hiei looked at the human girl crossly. "You have a very warped sense of good and evil."
"She's dating Urameshi!" Kuwabara jabbed as they all ran down the hall in search of Holly.
"For once I agree with the idiot," Hiei grumbled.
"Shut Up, Shrimp! I'm not an idiot!" Kuwabara screeched.
"That's not the point! Holly isn't a bad person, there's just a huge misunderstanding!" Keiko attempted to convince the boys.
"I'm not so sure I can agree with you this time Keiko-dear," Botan huffed.
"Now THAT is truly unusual," Yuusuke muttered.
"You say something, Yuusuke?" Botan asked innocently.
Visibly Yuusuke bit his own tongue, "Nope."
This conversation comforted Kurama although his mind was still in turmoil. 'Can I really be strong enough to stop her? So far it has been rather obvious who is in charge of who.'

The bells hovered around Holly in a protective veil. Holly let them begin to gather energy for her and slowly she felt her body return to its normal state. Her hair grew longer as it bled into its light purple color. She knew at this time her eyes already shown bright silver. Her fangs were also growing out but none could see those yet.
The Oni scrambled around the Sirine but none dared to come near. They instinctively knew they were no match for Holly, if only humans were that smart.
There were power trails all over the castle but Holly already knew where to find Enma. If she hadn't been able to sense him then she could have just gone by what her grandmother had always told her about Enma'a habits... grandmother knew a great deal about the god. Holly smirked, the information she gathered from her grandmother may prove very useful to her cause. Enma had many things to answer for...
As Holly approached the last of the doors standing in her path she noted that it was locked and warded. The smiled that broke across her face finally revealed the fangs of her true form and a low chuckle escaped her throat. It was time.

Koenma watched his screen in earnest the moment the alarms went off. He had been hollering at various Oni to get things sealed off and to call every last fighter they had to the Spirit World to fight off this attacker. One of his various camera's showed Yuusuke's team was already chasing after the Sirine.
"Those idiots... they let her right into the castle," Koenma sighed in defeat. If those reinforcements didn't make it in soon then Holly would be able to take whatever it was she wanted...
Koenma looked back and his pacifier fell to the floor as he watched in shock. Holly had gone straight for Enma himself. Not only that, but she had completely blown the door that led to Enma's private chamber away, that door itself was warded so heavily that no living soul but Enma and Koenma could enter through it.
'By all the powers that be,' Koenma took a moment to actually pray for the first time ever in his life. 'Please help us survive this.'

"Enma!" Holly called out through the chamber. "Show yourself! I've already jumped through all your stupid hoops to get here now face me!"
"A mere child faces the Great Enma?" A deep voice boomed, vibrating the walls and floors. "How can you possibly hope to defeat me when your ancestors could not?"
"Times change Old Man," Holly smirked. "It's about time though that you learned for once the consequences of YOUR actions."
"Bold words," The voice answered again. "Defiantly a spirit that is worthy of the true power called Sirine... or is it just overconfidence?"
"I suppose we will not know unless we fight it out," Holly could feel even more power rush into her body and hang in the air around her and collected into her bells.
A figure stepped out of the darkness and Holly was confronted by a large man. He was smaller then the tales made it sound but Holly knew that it was none other then Enma. All creatures had several forms even humans if they learned how to use them. "Beautiful and foolhardy, seems to be a genetic trait for your kind," Enma seemed to spit out the last two words.
Holly's temper flared at the disrespect this being had for her race. She ground her teeth together as she studied her opponent, knowing that soon the first move would come very soon.

AN: o_O another evil spot to leave it, I'm getting good at finding those. Well there's no help for it because I have to stop somewhere! I know this part is mostly about Holly but that's to be expected for now, the stuff that I'm looking forward to writing (well other then the fight between Holly and Enma) comes in the aftermath after everyone dies except those who live. ^_^ Thanks for reading and please remember to review! PLEASE!
