I'm going to have this as PG-13 just in case, but its only because there might be violence and cussing. I'm not going to do romance, 'cause I'm not good at that. The only pairings will be Yusuke/Keiko, and Kuwabara/Yukina. If there are spelling mistakes, blame them on my sticky keyboard. This is just after the Dark Tournament, mostly because I've never seen past that,, and prefer to do stuff based on what I do know myself, not on what I know from fansites. Oh, and I'm not going to put in Japanese terms(possibly none) because I don't know that much.
The Legend
Chapter 1: The Pit
Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei stood in front of Koenma, waiting for their new assignment. From the looks of all the ogres running around, looking terrified, this was going to be important. And dangerous. They always are. Why can't I get any easy missions for once. Or, how about a break? Yusuke thought.
"You probably want to know what the new mission is, and why I called you here instead of sending Botan." Koenma finally said.
"Well, yeah. We've been standing here for 5 minutes. We just finished that stupid tournament. Why can't you people ever leave me alone, and give some time off!" Yusuke said.
"I understand that you want a break, and if this hadn't come up, you would have had a break. I want you to go into the Aldabreshin territory in Makai, and bring back a girl." Koenma told them.
"Heh, why do you need a girl Koenma. Can't get a date with one yourself?" Kuwabara said laughingly.
"What did she do? Is she some big criminal? And what are the Aldabreshin?"Yusuke asked.
"The Aldabreshin are a race of demons that like in Makai. They own slaves, and the slaves mine for jewels that lie deep within the Earth in their territory." Kurama answered.
"Yes, that is correct, Kurama. And, no, Yusuke, she is not a criminal. She is a slave. She is the only one with information, at least the only one that is easily obtainable, to something very important that I need you to help with. She will accompany you on your next mission. I'll give you the next part once you have brought her here. Botan will take you to the outskirts of the territory, and she will fill you in. Hurry back."Koenma said, turning back to his neverending paperwork. Yusuke looked at him for a second and turned and walked out the door, with the others following. I knew it. We can never have an easy mission. Stupid Koenma.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~A little while later, in the Makai~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Here we are! The Outskirts of the Aldabreshi Territory!" Botan said, too happy as usual. They looked around. Old, weathered buildings stood. Off in the distance, marvelous castles stood, taller than the surrounding buildings. People walkied between the old buildings, heading for a tunnel that led underground. "Now, you'll probably find her if you follow those people. There's a fight today. Ok, about the girl. Her name is Mira Aliani, but here she's better known as A'Drea Jay. She is a pit fighter. Kurama, Hiei, I believe you know what that is. You can explain later. She shouldn't be to hard to find and get out. The only real problem will be the guards. If you're not careful, then you might be captured, and made into a slave. Oh, and Yusuke, I'll be here on the Outskirts waiting for you. You still have the Communications Mirror, right? Good. If you need anything, you can contact me on that. Ok, you better get going. The sooner you go in, the sooner you can get out."
Yusuke took another look at the "city", and shrugged.Doesn't sound so hard to me. Maybe we did get an easy mission." So basically, we go in, find her, drag her out, and leave? That sounds easy."
"Don't underestimate this place, Yusuke. It's more dangerous than it looks." Hiei said
"Yes, Hiei is right. It would be better to not barge in, but to keep quiet." Kurama said.
"Well, I'm not going to waste time. I'm going." Kuwabara said, walking towards the city.
"We better follow. Don't want him to get lost." Yusuke said, following. "And you two need to come to tell us about the pit fighting stuff."
They caught up with Kuwabara, and Kurama started to explain. "The pit fights are like tournaments that are held under ground. They are usually slaves, or prisoners that fight. Some pits are like normal arena's, but not all. Some have fire all over the ground, some have glass, or ice. The fights are death matches. You have to kill your opponent before you can leave. Depending on the fighters, they add challenges. Like more than one fighter, or even large beasts are put in the Pits. If she's a fighter, than she probably is strong, because you have to be to survive."
"Sounds like fun." Yusuke said as they found themselves in an arena. They looked around and found seats close to the Pit. "Who's fighting today?" He asked one of the bystanders next to him.
"A'Drea Jay and Terwak. I have my bets on A'Drea Jay. She hasn't been fighting as long as Terwak, but she does better fights." The red-skinned demon said, without even looking away from the Pit. Just then, A door opened, and two people were escorted in by guards. One was tall, a giant, and had green skin and horns coming out of his skin. His eyes were glowing red, and were filled with hate. The other was a girl. She had silver hair, ears and tail. She looked short next to him, but it was apparent that she wasn't. She had a look of indifference on her face. Her silver blue eyes looked at her opponent, studying him. She carried a sword at her waist. He held a club, huge, in his hands. "That big one is Terwak, he wins because he is so big, and the other fighters are scared. But he's stupid. A'Drea is smart. Not as strong, but fast. He'll be no match. I win good money on fight today. Haha." The demon said to Yusuke.
"Haha. This scrawny little thing is my opponent? Haha. I'll squash her!" Came a booming voice from Terwak.
"We'll see about that." She said in a low voice. The guards looked at them both and smiled. He too was betting on A'Drea.
"Fight!" He said. Terwak raised his club and brought it down on A'Drea. She moved, almost to fast to see, and was behind him. He laughed, and swung his club around towards her. She didn't move until the last second, jumping up onto the club. She ran up it, and kicked him in the face, and flipped into the air, landing on the ground. He went flying. As he got up, he looked at her with hate. He ran towards her, intending to run her over. She drew her sword, and raced at him. They collided, and fell away from each other, both on their feet. Terwak looked at her, laughed, and collapsed, blood pouring out of a wound that ran from his neck down to his stomach. The crowd erupted in cheers. "The winner:A'Drea Jay! Slave of Lord Ritanni!" The guard said as more guards came in to drag the still bleeding, but dead, Terwak out of the Pit. A'Drea looked around, and began circling the Pit, looking at the crowd. She stopped when she got to Yusuke. Her eyes turned to him, and he saw curiosity in her eyes.
"A ningen? What is a ningen doing here?" She asked.
"A NINGEN is here to get you out. Koenma sent us to bring you to him." Yusuke said, angrily.
Startlement, wonder, amusement, and finally, curiosity flashed through her eyes." Ok. Tonight, midnight. The Entrance to the Arena. I'll be here. You better be able to get me out." She said as a guard came over to take her back to the cells.
"Where is she going?" Yusuke asked."
"To the cells. She gets nothing but life for her fight. She gets the right to live, but she has to go back to the prison cells, where the other fighters are kept. Lots of money I get today. See what I say? She wins, he dies. Easy money!" The demon next to him said.
Yusuke and the others left to go find a safe place, or at least somewhere relatively safe, to contact Botan, and to wait until midnight.
