Chapter 8- the visitor and the challenge

            "Keiko, don't move." Yusuke said slowly. He looked towards Kuwabara, Hiei and, Kurama and motioned them to go outside. The four friends walked around the front yard but it didn't seem like anything was there.

            "What's the deal Urimeshi? There's nothing here!" Kuwabara yelled throwing his arms down by his side.

            Suddenly a figure dressed in a black cloak appeared.

            "Hello Detective," The figure said.

            "Who the heck are you?" Yusuke shouted through gritted teeth. He could sense his energy; it was strong, very strong.

            "My name is Nukin. Servant of Karasouo. I hope you've had a nice life because it will be over soon." Nukin said calmly. Nukin's cloak covered him from head to toe. You couldn't see his face just two yellow eyes. A green ball emerged from Nukin's cloak and darted toward Yusuke. But he easily dogged it.

            "Oh come on!" Yusuke put his hands on his hips.

"Your going to have to do better then that!" he looked over to were Nukin was standing but he had vanished. Yusuke felt a first dig into his stomach.

            "Yusuke! What's going on out her?" Keiko had come out of the house to see if everything was all right. She had Puu in her arms.

            "Keiko! Don't!" Yusuke screamed.

            Nuking looked at Keiko and growled.

            "We will finish this later Detective!" And than He vanished. Keiko ran toward Yusuke.

            "Who was that?" Keiko asked looking at the place where Nukin last stood.

            "A servant of Karasouo. Nukin."

~*~*~

            Botan and Yukina joined Yusuke, Kieko and Kuwabara at school the next day. Kurama was going to search in his own school and Hiei went to the Demon world to ask if anyone had heard where they went.

            "Keiko would it be alright if we had another meeting at your house tonight?" Botan asked.

            "Yeah sure it's ok!" Keiko said with a smile.

            "KIEKO! There you are! Miro has been looking everywhere for you! Where have you been? Never mind, come on let's go!" Her two friends grabbed her arm but Keiko stood her ground.

            "Sorry, not today. This is Botan. Yusuke's cousin. And this is Yukina, A transfer student." Keiko motioned to the two girls. They had decided that those were the best stories for them since Botan would be hanging around Yusuke a lot.

            "And my girlfriend!" Kuwabara shouted putting his arm around Yukina. Yukina laughed nervously.

            "Oh! There are the guys! Come on I'll introduce you to them!" Kuwabara grabbed Yukina's arm and dragged her away. They stared at the two for a moment then Botany turned to Keiko.

            "Keiko can I talk to you for minute?" Botan asked.

            "Sure…" The two girls walk a little bit away form the three.

            "Keiko, I think you should go with them to talk to Miro, He might know something you know!" Botan said calmly.

            "Oh I haven't thought of that." Keiko said.

            "Oh don't be so depressed you and Yusuke can spend a ton of time together after the case is over!" Botan covered her mouth as she chuckled. Keiko blushed

~*~*~ Yusuke and Keiko's two friends ~*~*~

            "We-we a-are s-sor-ry f-for take-king aw-away K-ei-ko fro-m y-ou." The girls looked down staring at the ground. Yusuke turned to look at them he could tell they were scared. He knelt down so he was looking them in the eye.

            "I think your lying." Yusuke said in a one-tone voice.

            "." They looked startled. Yusuke stood up and looked away.

            "You want Keiko to be happy, right?" The two girls nodded.

            "But you just don't want it to be with me because you think I might hurt her or something… Right?" They thought for a minute and then gave a slight nod. He turned to them and gave them a small smile.

           
            "I'm glad Keiko has friends like you who watch out for her. But I swear I will never let anything happen to her. I'd rather die than she her unhappy. And I would NEVER hurt her, never." The two girls, for the first time in their life looked him strait in the eye.

            Keiko and Botan walked back to them.

            "Ok, let's go then!" Keiko said and stated to walk I'll see two later." Keiko waved and left with her two friends.

            "Umm, Keiko can we ask you a question?" Keiko turned to them.

            "Sure."

            "Are you happy with the great Urimehsi?"

            "yes, I'm very happy." She said smiling.

            "Has he ever hurt you?" They blurted out.

            Keiko stopped walking and looked at them with serious faces.

            "No he never has. He's always looking out for me to make sure that I'm ok. He never let's thugs get a hold of me or boys take advantage of me even if he gets really hurt. One time he almost died." Keiko's eyes stared to water. She found out how he killed himself to save her when the maki insects were after her.

            "Keiko! They're you are! Can you show me where the gym is?" Miro asked he knew where the gym was but he wanted to get Keiko to himself.

            'Good Urimeshi isn't here! Maybe I can talk to Keiko now!'

            "Sure thing." Keiko and Miro started to walk towards the gym.

            'What should I ask him? How could I get him to say if he knew were Karasouo is?'

            "So, what's your father's name?" Keiko asked

            "Karanosama."

            'So close!'

            "Do you live with your parents Keiko?"

            "Yes but they're out of town right now, some convention."

            "I see." They reached the entrance of the gym.

            Keiko said then walked to change.

            'Perfect, today we have boxing. Time to capture Keiko's heart.' HE smirked then went to change.

~*~* On the roof of the school *~*~

            "Shouldn't we be looking for Karasouo's son?" Botan asked.

            "Relax, it's gym period!" Yusuke said as he closed his eyes.

            "Yusuke there you are!" Yusuke opened an eye.

            "Oh, hey old man. This is my cousin Botan." He motioned to Botan.

            "Pleased to meet you." She said bowing.

            "Likewise." Said Mr. Takennaka.

"Yusuke I need your help. We have a special company here today that will give our school a huge amount of money if we have an excellent Gym program."

            "So…." Yusuke was bored.

            "Yusuke, can you really be so dense!" Botan said almost screaming.

"He wants you to box a top student in the school to show they have a good program!"

            "Boxing eh? Whom would I be up against?"

            "Miro. I would say Kuwabara, however Miro really wanted to and he is good. Plus his father is giving a lot of money for his school."

            "Really…"

'Didn't the toddler say something about Karasous and letting his son have everything he wants?' Yusuke thought for a minute.

'Plus, then I'll be able to show Miro not to mess with Keiko! Perfect.'

            "Sure old man I'll help. But no gloves or helmets for me okay?"

            "Whatever you say Yusuke. Thank you for helping. But my name is Mr. Takenaka to you."

~*~*~ In the gym ~*~*~

            "Ok class today we are going to be watching the boys boxing/ fighting tournament."

            "Hey Keiko you know The people who are fighting are the great Urimeahi and Miro. And Mire's really good too! And I heard that the great Urimeshi isn't wearing any protective gear!" Exclaimed Keiko's friend         

            "Really?"

            "Yes, it's true. I practically had to kick him to warn his that he isn't the greatest fighter around." Botan said. She and Yukina walked over to her. While Keiko's other friend left.

            "Do you think they'll be ok?" Yukina asked.

            "I'm sure they'll be fine, Yusuke has to be prepared though, I think that Miro might know something." Botan said.

            "Yusuke, be careful…" Keiko whispered her left hand clenched in front of her heart.

            "Ok Let's have a clean fight!" Said the referee.

            "Yah, sure suck all the fun out of it!" Yusuke complained.

            "1-2-3, FIGHT!"

Yusuke punched Miro in the jaw then did a side kick into his stomach. Miro fell down.

"Well that was quick." Yusuke muttered. Miro stood up and hit Yusuke in the jaw.

"Ok, now your dead!" Yusuke screamed he hit Miro in several places in his body. Then kicked him. Miro went down like a lead balloon.

"This isn't right, I'm supposed to win!"

"I guess you didn't get the memo." Yusuke said.

"You are scum!" Miro yelled but no one heard him except for Yusuke.

"You don't deserve a girl like Keiko! I do! And I swear she'll be mine!"

            " Your right I don't, but if you touch her I swear I won't hesitate to kill you." And with that Yusuke left.

A/n- ok that's it sorry I suck at fights. R&R I might do another one today!
