Again, thank you to the person who corrected me, I can't believe I wrote that and didn't know it...Well, that's what you get for not rereading what you write! Anyway, here's chapter two!

Hiei: Gee you make it sound so interesting...

Shut up, you!

Disclaimer:

Hiei: She doesn't own us, thank the gods. She just tortures us to the brink of death...

Liar! Liarliarliar! I do not! No more disclaimers for you!

Hiei: Oh gee, what ever will I do?

Get outta here, you...! *chases him outta the room*

"Ok, so what are we looking for again?" Yusuke said lazily. The group had split up into pairs, Yusuke with Hiei and Kuwabara with Kurama. Yusuke had somehow talked Hiei into staying at a restaurant's window seat to look for the people they were looking for.

"People walking around in black cloaks, how stupid are you, Yusuke?" Hiei said, annoyed. He didn't want to be on this case as much as Yusuke did, but he would have at least have liked to be moving around.

"Shut up, Hiei." Yusuke took another gulp of his soda. "Bah, this is so boring!" He whined.

"Then why did we come in here in the first place?" Hiei asked, trying not to cause people to stare.

"I don't know."

"Urameshi, you are such an idiot." Yusuke was about to reach over and punch the little fire demon when something caught his eye.

"Hey, is that one of the people we're looking for?" He said, pointing at a person hurriedly walking through the crowds on the other side of the street.

"Yes, you baka, now come on." Hiei was right outside of the window just as Yusuke got up from the booth. Both of them using their incredible speed, they crossed the street, caught the cloaked person by each arm, and ran into a dark alley. There, they let him go as he flew into a garbage pail. This all happened in under twenty seconds.

"Ok Mr., what's your name?" Yusuke said darkly.

"H-Huh? W-Who are you?! What do you want?!" He said nervously.

"Answer the question!" Hiei threatened with a death glare.

"Joe. Joe Makintaro."

"Well, Mr. Makintaro, I'd say this is your lucky day, but I don't like to lie."

"W-What do you want?!?" He sounded more and more nervous.

"Why are you walking around with a black cloak on?" Hiei said.

"Hey, I-I got the right-"

"Lemme repeat what he said. Tell us why you're walking around with a black cloak on before we have to beat you within an inch of your life," Yusuke said.

"Okayokayokay! Just don't hurt me, please!"

Well that was easy, Yusuke thought.

"I wearing this because...because...I'm part of a secret society," he said, whispering and calming down tremendously with the last part of his sentence.

"What secret society?" Yusuke asked.

"One of the most ancient of societies. And one of the most powerful. You'd better let me go or I'll curse you!" He threatened, but his voice was beginning to crack.

"I seriously doubt you're that powerful," Yusuke said as he summoned up a bullet for his Spirit Gun that was so powerful that it would be visible to any human with no enhanced powers to see the supernatural. "Or at least not nearly as powerful as we are, so I suggest you start giving us a lot more details about all this." By this time, the little man was so frightened he was ready to speedily answer every question they threw at him.

"Now, what is this secret society?!"

"It's a society to ultimately summon a demon from Spirit World!"

"What demon?"

"I don't know her name, they didn't tell me, but she's supposed to be powerful enough to wipe out the entire human population!"

"I thought she was already summoned. Why are they trying to summon her again?"

"I don't know, they didn't tell me! Really, I swear! They caught me in an alley and forced me to join them, they didn't tell me much, just to recruit more members, as many as possible!"

"Where are they going to summon her?"

"Someplace in Europe! That's all I know, I swear!"

"Where is this society now? Where can we find them?"

"I don't know, they blindfold me when they want to perform a ritual somewhere so I have no idea where they take me!"

Suddenly, a shot like a laser pierced the man through the heart, killing him instantly. Hiei and Yusuke looked up to see another person garbed in the black clothing standing on the escape stairs of the building.

"Hmph, useless," she said and disappeared before the two detectives could ask her anything.

"Well, that was weird. Too bad we couldn't get any real details outta him," Yusuke said.

"Yes yes, very unfortunate. Come on, I'm sure there are plenty more scumbags where he came, and I'm sure that lady knows more than he did," Hiei said hurriedly. He wanted to get his legs moving, he hated standing still for so long.

"Shouldn't we go tell the others?" Yusuke asked.

"We can tell them when we meet up with them again, now come on!" Yusuke shrugged and nodded, then briskly followed the demon across the city, being more successful than when they just sat around.

"Well, what were you two able to come up with?" Kurama asked as they sat around the table at the cafe.

"All we were able to find out is that they're some sort of society that uses black magic that's even too evil for the usual black magic practitioners to use, they're trying to summon the same demon girl, and that the ritual is gonna take place in Europe. How about you guys?" Yusuke said.

"Just about the same, only that it's gonna be soon," Kuwabara said.

"We met up with some really powerful chick that killed the first guy we met and anyone else who gave anyway any new information. She shot him with some sort of laser or something," Yusuke added.

"Really? That's interesting. The same thing happened to us as well. Perhaps we should be searching for her instead of the stragglers," Kurama suggested.

"Sounds like a plan." The four left, being as it was getting dark and it would be more difficult to find the society people, to continue their search in the morning.

~*~*~*

"I was hoping that they wouldn't be interfering with our plans. But it seems that that was inevitable," the girl from the alley said.

"Yes, indeed. Let us hope none of the other little members leak out anymore information. T'would be best if we begin the Move," said another person, this time an older male.

"Of course. Should I make some sort of preparation if they find us out somehow?" The girl asked.

"Hmm...No. I doubt if they will be able to find anymore of us here once we begin the Move. You may go," he said. She bowed as she left her master. He leaned back in his chair in thought. "Yusuke Urameshi, the new demon lord of one third of the makai...I wonder how he would fair against our fair lady of the darkness..."

Keiko woke up drenched in sweat. She had experienced the exact same nightmare as last night, and it seemed all the more real. Everything that had happened the first night, had happened again. Why did this dream keep coming to her?

She tried to relax, to go back to sleep, but she kept thinking about the dream. Who was that little girl, and why was she killed at such a young age? What happened during the time the light from the candles went out? Were those people coming down the steps killed? There were so many questions she didn't know the answer to and the list kept growing. Finally, Keiko had drifted back in sleep, still thinking of questions she wanted answered.

"Hey Keiko," Yusuke said as he spotted her rounding the corner and caught up to her. "How'd you sleep last night?"

"I had the exact same dream again, Yusuke. What could it mean?" She said worriedly.

"Don't worry about it so much, Keiko, it probably doesn't mean anything."

"But it was exactly the same, nothing changed."

"What didn't change?" Came a familiar voice. Kurama stood beside Yusuke.

"How the heck did you get here?! I thought you were supposed to go to school on the other side of Tokyo!!" Yusuke cried.

"I do not go to school on the other side of Tokyo, Yusuke. My school isn't all that far from yours, if you remember. I thought I'd see if you'd given any thought about yesterday. But what were you two talking about?"

"She just had the same nightmare two nights in a row, that's all." Yusuke said.

"Oh? Why don't you tell me about it," Kurama started to say, when the bell of the school rang throughout the streets "when school gets out. See you later!" He said, running off towards his school, the usual girls flocking after him.

"Heh, that's Kurama for you," Yusuke though out loud. But Keiko couldn't wait until then. Perhaps Kurama would understand this better than Yusuke did.

Ok, I hope that'll settle your hunger for this ficcy for now.

Kurama: Erm, I'm not so sure you should phrase it like that...

Bah, I don't give a care these days! _
