Nakoruru: Okay! I'm really having some happy time! ^_^ There's one thing I have to say before anything. . .Mitsukai's back!!!!!

Blazer: Really? That's cool.

Nakoruru: Yeah! I've missed Mitsukai soo much! Okay, now to the reviews, cause I could probably spend all day saying how much I missed Mitsukai, and everyone would never hear the end of it.

Firestar- thanks for the comment.

Nickel478- Sorry for being so mean I do have a tendency to be. But don't worry, Kage will make another appearance that will explain who exactly he is.

Mai-Ly- This sorry will only get more interesting as it goes along, cause- as cocky as it sounds-I'm writing it.

Bunnychu- Glad about your school situation. No need for you to go crazy on me. And thanks for the comments. Too many hours of being Sailor Moon and Ronin Warriors crazed helped me to make attacks and characters. But you're an excellent writer too and I still love your attacks.

Mitsukai- I'm soo glad that you're back!! And you have to email me with all the plans, that is such a cool idea! And thanks for all your support on my stuff!

The Masked Mistress- Yep, kicking butt is about to commence! You can be sure that no one gets away untouched!

SL23- You know? You really think you know who Kage is? That's great! At least someone does cause I was about to worry. Tell me in your next review if you got him cause he is going to make another appearance in this fic before it's all said and done.

Nakoruru: Now on to the action, adventure, and some major butt kicking needed!

~~~~~~~~~~~ ******** ~~~~~~~~~~~

Yusuke clenched his fist as he stared at the two youkai females that blocked their path. Both youkai had very powerful feels to them. One was wore a red body suit, while the other one had on a dark blue body suit. Dark colored markings covered the exposed areas of their body. Both youkai stared at the group with cold silvery eyes, before flickering on Yusuke, then Serena.

"So you're the threats to Mistress Alshra," the one with the blue body suit said.

"Who are you?" Kuwabara said. He had a bad feeling about these two. Not only were they girls, and he didn't fight girls, but they were extremely powerful. Both youkai gave him a cold smile as they bowed mockingly.

"My name is Kagura," the one in red said.

"And I'm her sister Mihura. Mistress Alshra sent us to play with you. We haven't had fresh prey in a long time. I think we should take our time with them Kagura." Mihura's eyes glow dark crimson as her youki whipped around her.

"Yes, my sister. I think that is an excellent plan." Kagura's eyes too turned crimson as she started to transform also.

"I think it's time for a bit of action, what do you think, Serena?" Yusuke cracked his knuckles. He saw Serena pull off her broach and thrust it into the sky, shouting the words to let her transform into Millennia Sailor Moon.

Just as Serena was finishing, a large white creature jumped at them. The four individuals jump out the way as another creature tried to bite them. Looking up the four see that Mihura and her sister Kagura had turned into large dog type demons. The only thing that distinguished them was a red and blue piece of cloth that was around their necks like collars.

"What the hell did they turn into?" Kuwabara said, calling his spirit sword forward.

"They're exactly what they look like. Dog demons. Very powerful ones at that," Kurama said as he got ready to transform into his youko form. "But they should be nothing we can't handle if we work together."

"All right then, guess I'll be the dog catcher then," Yusuke smirked as he jumped into the air aiming his spirit gun at Mihura. He was about to fire it when the youkai somehow disappeared and reappeared behind him. "What the-" The youkai growled as it lunged to rip into Yusuke's shoulder with its huge paw. Just as the ningen was about to be seriously injured, someone yanked him out of the way.

"Yusuke, are you all right? We'd rather not have you turned into mince meat." Yusuke looked up to find Serena holding on to the back of his coat. The wings on her back allowed them to hover over the demon dog. "They're a lot faster than we thought." She pointed to where Youko Kurama and Kuwabara were dodging out the way of the vicious snaps Kagura meant to take off their arms and legs with.

"That's nothing. Hiei's a lot faster than those overgrown mutts are. If I can fight him and get away without losing an arm, then they shouldn't be a problem." Serena and Yusuke landed in a tree near where Mihura was. Splitting up, Serena pulled out her staff going for Mihura's head, while Yusuke went after the legs. Mihura snapped at Serena who dodged out the way. Raising her staff up, she twirled it above her head.

"Millennia Moon Love Flare!" Thrusting the staff forward, a blinding light burst from the staff, shrouding Mihura in its light. The demon dog yelped, backing up from out of the light. With one of its paws, the demon dog pawed at its eyes, trying to see. "Yusuke! Now!"

"Right!" Yusuke pointed his spirit gun at the legs of Mihura. His finger started to glow as he took aim. "All right, here it goes. Spirit Gun!!" The energy shot from his finger, striking Mihura in the side. The demon dog made a hurt cry as it staggered to the side. "Serena now!"

"Already on it." Serena stayed hovered in mid air as she closed her eyes focusing her power. "Millennia Moon Crystal Love Shower!" The lights and colors that swirled around Serena's body turned into dagger like objects, raining down on Mihura. Kurama, Kuwabara, and Kagura paused as the attack brought Mihura down to her knees.

~~~~~~~~~~~ ******* ~~~~~~~~~~~

Alshra was still trying to get Hiei to completely surrender to her. Even though he didn't retort or struggle because she still threatened the life of his children, the koorime would not completely surrender himself to her. Alshra was actually intrigued rather than irate by this sign of loyalty to the ningen woman. What was it about that woman that made him want to stick by her so long? There had to be a use for her than what Alshra knew.

"Tell me, my beloved Hiei," Alshra purred as she stroked his chest in an enticing way that Hiei did not fall for. Her hand slid up his bare chest across his face into his hair, which was where it rested. "Why do you still resist?"

Hiei kept quiet, refusing to give this woman an answer. He had to stall as long as he could for Serena to come for him. He was never going to give in to this woman. He cooled the temperature of his body down more as she pressed against him. His body continued to remain unreceptive to her, even though her curves were pressed completely against him. Any normal person would have succumbed long ago, but he wasn't just anyone. Years of self- control now came in handy.

"Hiei," Alshra half whined half cried as she arched against him. "Why won't you be mine, and mine alone. Forget about that human woman. She could never make you happy. Eventually she will grow old and die, then what will you do? Die with her?"

Hiei looked directly at Alshra, his eyes serious. "If that's the only way I will be with her forever, then I will die with her when the time comes." The remark brought a shocked expression to Alshra's face, before it was replaced with a mocking smirk.

"Oho ho. You may say that now, but when the time comes, you'll realize that dying with that human isn't what you want. You aren't the type to follow anyone to his or her graves. You're different from that. You're strong, and you won't allow yourself to be such a weakling. I know you Hiei. When that human dies, you'll go back to the Makai and find another woman, a youkai woman. This human is just a faze, something to tie you over for a while," laughed Alshra. "Go ahead and give up this stupid dream and be mine. We can be together for more centuries than that ningen will ever."

"You honestly think you know me?" Hiei replied. "Don't make me laugh."

"What!"

"I may have been like that at one time, but like you said, I'm much different. You can't understand what I see in Serena? It wasn't meant for you to understand then, because you don't know how I feel, or what I will ever feel for her. The love I have for her goes beyond anything you could ever try to rationalize."

"Love? You think you're in love with that human? Hah! What youkai would love such a homely looking creature as her? My beauty far exceeds any sort of looks that she possesses," scoffed Alshra.

"You just don't get it. Not just her looks outweigh any and everything I would ever want to feel for you, her personality shines brightest. You would not understand it unless you saw it for yourself. And I thought you could look past your own pumped up image to see anything in anyone else," Hiei snorted.

Alshra pulled away from Hiei, looking as if she would exploded. Who was he to say that human made her-HER-Lady Alshra, homely looking! Alshra spun from him to grit her teeth. If that human did survive Mihura and Kagura, which Alshra seriously doubted, she would take care of the troublesome human herself.

Then Hiei would have nothing to say negative against his mistress. She would show him exactly what that human was made out of. There was no way she would be able to stand up to the power of an S class youkai. Everything would fall into her hands as she planned. Nothing could go wrong.

"Mistress Alshra!" One of the enslaved bishonen that Alshra still kept ran in the room. His eyes were wide as he bowed to her. Alshra turned annoyed eyes upon the male.

"What do you want? Do you have something to report to me?"

"Yes," the male said, but got a smack in the mouth with a whip she had seemingly pulled out of nowhere.

"How many times must I say that when you speak, you always add in my name," snapped Alshra. She gripped her leather whip with no mercy.

"Forgive me, Mistress Alshra," whimpered the male, not wanting the woman's angry wraith upon him. In all of the excitement of what was going on with the battle between the four individuals and Mihura and Kagura, he forgot he was still being held captured. He and the others that were still captive were hoping that soon they would be set free from captivity.

"That's better, now what is it you want?" Alshra said impatiently.

"The four intruders Mistress Alshra. . .they've taken down Mihura," the young man said, excitement coloring his words.

"They took out Mihura. I guess I shouldn't underestimate the spirit detective. But Kagura won't have this, now that her sister's fallen, she won't hold anything back at all. They won't stand a chance, but if they do manage to get past her, I'll be waiting for them," Alshra simpered.

"Yes Mistress Alshra." The male was about to leave when Alshra's garrote shot past him, stopping him in his tracks.

"And as for you, I think you need to be punished. You didn't think I would hear that hopeful note in your voice. You expect them to come save you and the others? Not a chance! If you want to be free so badly, I can grant you that wish. You can die now!" With one swift swing of her garrote, Alshra had sliced the male into many pieces. Her weapon dripped with blood as she turned back to Hiei. "Next is your little human and your friends. I'll be back for you as soon as they're dead."

~~~~~~~~~~~ ********* ~~~~~~~~~~~

"Mihura! Mihura, wake up!" Kagura had turned back into her normal demon form to attend to her sister. She had abandoned her battle with Youko Kurama and Kuwabara to be by her sister's side. The two had always stuck together. As children their parents had been hunted down for sport and slaughtered, leaving the two young pups to fend for themselves. They would have died of starvation if not for Alshra, who they owed their entire existence to.

"Kagura. . ." Mihura opened her eyes, looking up at her elder sister. "I'm sorry I couldn't handle two miserable humans."

"Don't speak! I'm going to avenge us both, don't worry." Raising her hand, Kagura unexpectedly drover her hand through Mihura's chest, pulling out the slowly dying heart. Mihura smiled softly as she died in her sister's arms while her sister ate her heart.

"What is she doing?" gagged Kuwabara.

"She's combining her sister's energy with her own, in order to finish us off," Youko Kurama answered his question.

"You will pay for what you've done!" Kagura howled as she transformed into a larger version of the dog demon she once was.

"Serena," Yusuke said, shifting his eyes to the girl for just one moment. "I think you should go on ahead. We'll distract this thing while you go find Hiei."

"But Yusuke," Serena started.

The male gave her one of his usual crooked grins. "Hey, don't worry about us. We've been in tough situations like this before. We can handle ourselves. Just go find Hiei and make sure you kick Alshra's ass for the rest of us. Okay?"

"I will," Serena said. "Thanks for everything. Take care guys, I'll be back with Hiei really soon." Serena took to the sky as Yusuke used his spirit gun to distract Kagura. Of course the blow did no harm to her, but it wasn't as strong as Yusuke could make it. "I won't let you all down. Your sacrifice won't be wasted." Serena flew from the battle scene, hoping that everything would be fine. She had a feeling this upcoming battle would take a lot out of her.
