Joshio and Hito ran out of the palace with Yusuke and Botan following them. They were on there way to find the man of the Mera clan. He was being brutally hurt at the moment by the townspeople.

'This is so stupid!' thought Yusuke. 'They are beating up this guy all because of his race!'

"We're almost there!" shouted Hito.

About three minutes later, they arrived to the center of the town. Yusuke and Botan saw many villagers throwing fruits at the man. They were in a huge crowd shouting many curses to the man. The male demon was actually good looking. He had human-like features. He wore a depressed face.

Yusuke saw him with a shocked expression. "I can't take this anymore!" shouted Yusuke.

Botan, and the two guards looked at Yusuke.

"This is UNJUST!" He then ran up to the people and jumped high to the center where the male demon was being tortured. "STOP IT!!!!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.

The whole village stopped. A fruit was being thrown at Yusuke but he caught it. Yusuke dropped the fruit.

"Stop torturing this guy! He didn't do anything! You all should be ashamed of yourselves. All because you guys can't handle change doesn't mean you can hurt the one who caused it! Just leave him alone!"

The whole town was silent. All that could be heard was a couple of coughs. Yusuke turned to the male demon of the Koji clan.

"Are you ok?" he asked.

"Yes," said the male demon.

"We'll get you out of here in no time."

With that, a heavy rock was being thrown at Yusuke. He turned around with great speed to catch it.

"HEY!" he shouted. "Who ever threw that rock at me can come up here and face me like a man!"

"Man?" one of the demons said.

"I smell a human!" said a female demons voice.

"YOU! Are human!" shouted a demon.

"Human!" shouted all of the demons in a chant. They got angry and started to throw items as well as gathering around to attack Yusuke.

"Uh oh," said Yusuke to himself. "We better get you out of here."

"Thanks," said the male demon.

"I'm warning you to back away as much as you can," said Yusuke.

"Um, alright."

"You better hurry!" shouted Botan from afar.

"Ay, Yusuke sure made a mistake," said Joshio.

"Yeh'," agreed Hito.

"As soon as Yusuke frees the demon, we better get out of here."

"How do ya know he's gonna free the demon for sure?" asked Hito.

"Trust me Hito," said Botan with pure confidence. "I know."

Hito looked at her questioningly.

"SPIRIT GUN!"

All three of them perked there heads up to see that Yusuke has used his famous spirit gun attack.

"See?!" said Botan. "I told you so!"

____________________

"Are you ok?" asked Yusuke after his attack.

"Yes, you didn't hurt me."

"Alright," said Yusuke. "My spirit gun has backed away the townspeople for a bit. Get on my back and I'll get us out of this place."

The demon nodded and got on his back. Yusuke flitted away, hearing the sound of gasping townspeople.

"Wow!" said the demon. "You are sure powerful."

"Heh!" said Yusuke. "All in the work of a spirit detective!"

Yusuke ran to Botan and the others with great speed.

"Yusuke!" shouted Botan. "Glad you made it! I never doubted you!"

"Enough small talk," said Joshio. "Les' get outa here!"

"Yeh'," said Hito.

They all ran out of the village avoiding the mob chasing them. All five of them got to the exit of the village and ran a mile away.

"Let's stop here!" shouted a panting Hito.

"Yes," Botan said out of breath as well.

Yusuke was the only one who wasn't exhausted.

Everyone sat on the grass panting for about five minutes.

"So what's your name?" asked Botan.

"Chune," he said. "My name is Chune."

"Well," said Yusuke. "It's nice to meet you Chune."

"Thank you," said Chune. "For rescuing me."

"Ah it was nothin'" said a modest Yusuke.

"Here," said Botan. She got out a tissue cloth and gave it to Chune. "You have a lot of stuff on you."

"Thank you."

Botan nodded.

"Hello everyone," said a familiar voice.

"What the-?!" said Yusuke, while everyone else jolted.

"Chill, chill," said the familiar voice in the shadows. "It's me," he said stepping forward to reveal himself. "Koenma!"

"Hey ya stupid brat!" shouted Yusuke. "You nearly scared me there! Don't ever do that again!"

"Koenma?" asked Chune. "THE Koenma?!"

"Yes," said the god.

"It is an honor sir," said Chune as he got up and bowed down.

"See Yusuke? I like this guy. I get a lot of respect from him."

"Whatever.."

"Wait!" said Koenma.

"Hmm?" hummed Yusuke.

"You're the male demon from the Koji clan aren't you!"

"Yes," he said.

"Where did you-?"

"-He was being tortured by the townspeople, so Hito and Joshio helped us out with rescuing Chune. They should get the credit," said Botan.

"I see," said the god in the teenaged form. "Hey you two?"

"Yeh'?" asked Joshio and Hito at the same time.

"Are you interested in working for me in spirit world?"

Botan widened her eyes and opened her mouth wide while sweat-dropping.

"Wh-wh-what?!" said Botan.

Hito stared at her. He knew what she was thinking. He frowned and looked at the ground with depressed eyes.

"Nah," said Hito. "We belong 'ere."

Joshio gave him a look and understood.

"We jus' wanna get away from our clan. They treat us like shit!" said Hito. "Maybe, we can be free ya know? Live on our own, away from those bastards!"

"I understand," said Yusuke.

Koenma nodded. "Hiei and Kurama will be here any minute. Hopefully there experience was better then yours. You two are in big trouble. The Mera clan is going to kill you."

"What?! Why?!" shouted Yusuke. "Rescuing a demon in need is better then being on there side and letting Chune be tortured!"

"Please Koenma sir," said Chune. "Don't blame Yusuke and Botan. They helped me! If one of them is going to be punished, punish me."

"Don't worry Chune," said Koenma. "I won't punish these two. They work for me."

"Hn," said a familiar voice in the distance.

"Well, well, well," said Yusuke. "Look who's joining us."

Hiei jumped down from a tree, while Kurama walked toward the group.

"Those demons are the most selfish, perverted, intolerable demons I have EVER met!" shouted Kurama.

"Who?" asked Chune.

"Who are you?" asked Kurama.

"I'm Chune."

"Chune?" asked Kurama. "Isn't your wife named Sonia?"

"Why yes! She is! Have you seen her?!" asked an anxious Chune.

Kurama opened his mouth about to talk but Hiei interrupted him.

"She's locked up in your prison."

"Oh my god," said Chune with shock. His eyes were wide open with tears coming out. "Our prisons are terrible!"

"Who are they?" asked Hiei in disgust pointing to the two guards.

"That's Joshio and there's Hito," said Yusuke. "They helped us out a lot."

"Hn."

"I guess our case is a bit ruined, since we have betrayed the Mera clan," said Koenma. "Freeing Chune was unexpected."

"You know what we CAN do," said Kurama.

Everyone looked at him.

"Hiei and I can ask where the baby is and then once we know, we can free Sonia and look for the child. You and your family will live freely in the demon world if you agree to this plan," Kurama said to Chune.

"I agree!" said an eager Chune. "Any way to get out of these annoying clans is fine by me!"

"But then," interrupted Koenma. "Half of our mission is a failure. We are supposed to have the two clans make peace."

"I think that's impossible sur," said Joshio. "There is no way we can get the Mera and Koji clan to get along."

"He's right," said Chune. "The clans are so stubborn. I don't think you guys can make that much of a change."

"My father is gonna kill me," said Koenma, putting his hand on his face sighing.

"It's ok Koenma," said Botan patting him on the shoulder. "Your father MAY understand."

"I'm not sure Botan."

Hito had a jealous look in his eyes

"There's no way we can get back to the village tonight," said Yusuke. "Or ever."

"Yer right," said Joshio. "They'll neva want us back."

"I guess we have to depend on Hiei and Kurama," said Yusuke.

"Hn."

"I guess," said Kurama. "I just hate being with that king..or queen. Whatever it is."

Hiei snorted and Koenma blushed while everyone else was giving questioning looks.

"Don't ask," said Koenma.

Yusuke shrugged. "I guess we'll camp out tonight while you two go to your clan."

"Hn."

"Can you two do me a favor?" asked Chune to Kurama and Hiei.

"What is it?" asked the Youko.

"Will you please tell Sonia that I'm alright. No wait! Can I come with you two?! I want to see my wife!"

"I," hesitated Kurama. "I uh.." Kurama looked at the god. "Koenma?"

"I'm not sure," said Koenma.

"Please sir!" pleaded Chune. "Haven't you ever been in love?!"

Koenma looked at Chune questioningly. "Fine," he said. "You just don't get caught. If your own people find you there, then some other problems may occur."

"Thank you!" said Chune.

"Hn," said Hiei. "Hurry up. We're leaving. When we get to the palace we'll see your wife. Then you get back here."

"Yes sir," said Chune.

"Boy, your real polite," said Yusuke.

Chune grinned at Yusuke then left with Hiei and Kurama to see his wife.
