Allrighty, here we go with another chapter. And, as promised, there will be Koenma bashing. Since everybody is going to be yelling things out at random times during this chapter, I'm going to have to say who is talking, so you know who says what. This is how it's going to be done; say Yusuke says spirit gun, for example, then I would write it like this: \Yusuke\ "Spirit Gun!". Just like that. If this is still a little confusing, then I'm really sorry, really I am.
Disclaimer: How many times do I have to say this? In case you don't already know, I don't own Yu-Yu Hakusho or any of the characters used, except Naomi and Hitarataki. Those two are mine, I did create those two.
And now onto the story. If you're a Koenma lover, please don't flame me because I'm going to bashing him. I don't like him, and we all have our opinions. And this is my fic so I can do whatever I want with him. And for all you Koenma haters (like me) I hope you like this chapter.

Last Time on Tragedy Strikes:
"I just don't understand how a youkai as smart and cunning as yourself, could let himself get caught up in a mess with a messenger from Reikai. Reikai of all places. And not just any Reikai messenger, the prince's chosen!"
"But, didn't Koenma propose to my sister?"
"Yes he did Kuwabara, but we're not going to get any answers just standing here. Take me to Botan, now."
"Very well, you may see her, but that is all."
"Good." Kurama switched from being Youko Kurama, to Suiichi-Kurama. Kuronue, Hitarataki, and Naomi all started walking to the door through which hitarataki and Kuronue originally came from. Kurama and Hiei followed closely behind, with Yusuke and Karasu hot on their tail. Kuwabara was standing still thinking about how his sister was going to feel when she heard all about this, until he realized that everyone was walking away. He ran up next to Yusuke and continued to think about his sister, and Yukina. Both of which he was going to see soon.
It did not take very long for the group to appear at the front of the cell which held the four sleeping girls. Shizuru was resting against the wall on the back of the cell, with Yukina and Keiko laying their heads on each of her shoulders. Botan was at the front of the cell, in the corner closest to the door.
\Kuronue\ "Wake up!" Botan was the first to wake up, then Yukina, Shizuru, and finally Keiko.
\Botan\ "What do you want now Kuronue? How many times have I told you to let me sleep when I'm trying to sleep. You were nice enough to give me a piece of crap blanket, now be nice enough to let me sleep a little!! ^Botan saw all of the people at the front of the cell looking in at her^ hello Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, Kurama……Kurama? You're here!! I knew you'd come for me!! You did come for me didn't you?"
Kurama just chuckled in response. \Kurama\ "Of course love. Who else would I come for?"
\Botan\ "And Kuwabara, Yusuke, Hiei! I never thought I'd be so happy to see all of you. But what's he doing here? Kurama, why is that asshole with you?"
\Keiko\ "Botan!! What did I tell you about using such bad language? Honestly Kurama, ever since we got here all we've really heard from her is cussing and crying. And Yusuke what are you doing just standing there? Beat the crap out of the bad guys and get me out of here!! And do it quickly, I don't think I can stand being in here for another minute."
\Yusuke\ "Sorry Keiko, but we can't. not yet at least. They have agreed to let you out, but only under certain circumstances. As for Karasu being with us, he wanted a fight with Kurama, but Kurama was so hell-bent on getting you back Botan, that he refused to fight Karasu. So Karasu decided to tag along and help us get you out, just so he could have a fight with Kurama."
\Shizuru\ "It must mean a lot then huh? To have a fight with Kurama."
\Karasu\ "It does. I want revenge for him being able to beat me in the Dark Tournament. If he can beat me again, then I'll leave everyone alone."
\Botan\ "What if, by some miracle, he doesn't beat you? Then what happens"
\Karasu\ "He dies, you become mine."
\Kurama\ "I never agreed to that."
\Karasu\ "You don't have to. You'll be dead."
\Botan\ trying to change the subject "So how did you find us. Did Koenma send you?"
Kurama's spirit energy rose once again and surpassed what it had been at just a few minutes before.
\Hiei\ "Hn. He's the reason you're here onna."
\Botan\ "What?"
\Yukina\ "But what about us? Are we here because of Koenma also?"
\naomi\ "No. you three were brought here so that she would have some company, other than us three, while she was here, however long that may be. We will let the three of you go, as soon as our demands are met."
\Keiko\ "Yusuke Urameshi! You better meet those demands right now!!"
\Kuwabara\ "He can't. none of us can. Only Koenma can."
\Yukina\ "What do you mean?"
\Kuwabara\ "Sis, Koenma played you. He's truly in love with Botan."
\hitarataki\ "Allow me to elaborate. As I was telling them before, Koenma had promised the three of us eternal life should be complete some missions. We completed the missions and he denied promising us. We even offered to work for Reikai, as long as we did not die ever. Even though he had promised us many times eternal life, he shunned us away after we had completed our tasks. Before we left, we warned him that we would take any means necessary to get what we were promised."
\Kuronue\ "We sent out spies after coming here and forming a group. They were to get information on all of the Tantei and Koenma, and report to naomi."
\naomi\ "Through our spy network we discovered that Koenma had chosen you, Botan, to be his bride, after finding out that you were already engaged. He talked about no one ever being able to love you like he does, and from the information we were given, we decided that he would do anything to be with you.
\Botan\ "So I was merely taken so that Koenma would come and grant your wish, and then you would set me free?"
\Kuronue\ "True. But he did not come as quickly as we thought he would. That is why we took the other three. so they could keep you company and you would not annoy us. Unfortunately, he still has not come.
\Keiko\ "Why that stupid, selfish, mother-
\Shizuru\ "Keiko! Not in front of Yukina!!"
\Yukina\ "It's okay. Let her say whatever she wants to about that no good dirty piece of trash. I hope he dies!!
\Keiko\ "Yeah! The nerve of that toddler! Just who does he think he is?! Trying to take you away from Kurama, everyone knows you two are meant to be. And then lying to Shizuru and playing her, playing all of us. Why that trashy asshole! I hope you die and burn in hell, and then I'll kill myself just to follow you down in hell and torture you forever you bastard!!!
Everyone was shocked at Keiko's choice of words, none of them had ever heard her say anything, anywhere along those lines, until just now.
\Botan\ "I still can't believe Koenma would that.
\Keiko\ "Oh quit moping about Botan. I'm sure that that's exactly what that jerk-off wants you to do.
\Shizuru\ "Go Keiko. I'll tell you what, after Kurama kills him, I'll help you torture him forever in hell.
\Kuwabara\ "I'm sorry sis.
\Yusuke\ "Don't be sorry Kuwabaka. Get revenge.
\Hiei\ "Now you're talking my language detective.
\Kurama\ "Botan, Keiko, Yukina, Shizuru. I promise I'll get you guys out of here. But only after Koenma grants their wish, and I kill him, and I kill Karasu, then I'll let you all out. I don't want you to get involved in any of it.
\Karasu\ "Who said you were going to kill me?
\Botan\ "Kurama can kick your ass any time!! Oh, and after you die and go to hell to burn for all eternity, which I can guarantee you will, make sure you give a special hello to Koenma for me, would you?
\Karasu\ "If I die, then I'll gladly do that for you.
\Keiko\ "You know, that dirty asshole had his chance. He didn't want you then. He still doesn't want you. He just doesn't like Kurama.
\Shizuru\ "Never has liked him. That's the only reason why he's trying to take Botan away.
\Yukina\ "You really think so?"
\naomi\ "I wouldn't doubt it. Though I myself cannot believe that you, his loyal subjects, would all talk about him in such a manner."
\hitarataki\ "Yes. Now my dear deity, have you heard nothing from Koenma?
\Botan\ "Nothing."
\Kuronue\ "Not even on your communicator?"
\Botan\ "HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU??!!! NO MEANS NO YOU BAKA!! I DON'T KNOW HOW YOUKO EVER MANAGED TO PUT UP WITH SUCH AN ANNOYING BEING SUCH AS YOURSELF!!"
\Kuronue\ "What about you onna. You're not exactly the shy and quiet type yourself.
\Botan\ "DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO TREAT A LADY YOU ASSHOLE?!! YOU NEVER SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT UNLESS YOU WANT ME TO CRY!!! YOU JERK!! YOU WANT ME TO CRY DON'T YOU? YOU ENJOY SEEING PEOPLE SAD DON'T YOU?!! SAY IT!! FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, SAY IT!! SAY YOU HATE ME!! I KNOW YOU DO!!! YOU WOULDN'T WANT ME TO CRY IF YOU DIDN'T HATE ME!! YOU DO HATE ME DON'T YOU?!!"
\Yusuke\ "Now you've done it. None of you have ever seen Botan truly sad."
\Kuronue\ "OH, and I suppose you have?"
\Yusuke\ "Exactly. I've known her way longer than any of you."
\hitarataki\ "I'm sick of this. Everyday you make her cry one way or another. Get Koenma here now before I go out of my mind!!"
\Kurama\ "You've made her cry?"
\Yukina\ "It's not their fault Kurama-kun. She's been very sad since she hasn't gotten to see you. Every time they mentioned you she started crying. She's missed you. It wasn't their fault. Miss naomi was only giving her hourly reports on your progress and everything else going on. Please don't get mad at them. It really wasn't their fault.
\Kurama\ "Fine. I won't… yet."
Kuronue, Naomi, and hitarataki all gulped.
\hitarataki\ "I'm tired of this. Naomi."
\naomi\ "yes sir?"
\hitarataki\ "If Koenma won't come to us, we'll just have to give him more incentive."
\Botan\ "What are you thinking?"
\Kuronue\ "You said he hates Kurama."
\Shizuru\ "And he hates Youko more."
\Keiko\ "He doesn't want Botan near Kurama because he thinks Kurama will hurt her."
\Yukina\ "He doesn't like seeing Botan crying"
\Kuwabara\ "He especially doesn't like to see her cry because of Kurama."
\Yusuke\ "So you make him think Kurama is hurting Botan."
\Hiei\ "You make him see Youko doing something and Botan screaming for help."
\Kurama\ "You make sure he not only hears, but also see."
\naomi\ "which will make him come quickly."
\Karasu\ "He'll immediately be trapped if you do it right."
\hitarataki\ "We'll get our wish, you'll get to kill him, and everyone will be happy, well as happy as youkai can get."
\Botan\ "So how do we start?"
\Shizuru\ "What do we do?"
\Yukina\ "What's the entire plan?"
\Keiko\ "Where is this all happening?"
\naomi\ "I've got a plan, and it will take all of you to act very well."
\Hiei\ "Hn. Fine. If it means I get to kill him."
\Botan\ "ABSOLUTELY NOT HIEI JAGANSHI!!! IF ANYONE IS KILLING KOENMA IT'S GONNA BE ME!! YOU GOT THAT?"
\Hiei\ "hn. Kitsune, your mate just threatened me."
\Yukina\ "Can we start now? I want to get out of this cell and back to Genkai. She's probably very worried and very lonely.
\Kuronue\ "Ok. This is how we'll do it…"
How was this? I hope you all enjoyed it!! Please review!!! Thanks. Bye everyone!!
