Chapter 2- The Source

"Yusuke what are we going to do? What if the thing that has the large amounts of energy attacks us?" asked Keiko. Yusuke and friends just kept walking silently.

"Yusuke are you listening to me?" asked Keiko. More silence.

"Yusuke," said Keiko.

"Yes, I can hear you. And I don't know what we are going to do about the problem we are facing. All we can do now is try are best to find the source and keep it from wanting to fight us," said Yusuke loosing his patience.

"Everyone be careful. The thing with the large amounts of spirit energy could be anyone or anything. So be extremely careful. Tomorrow will go looking for it. Okay?" said Yusuke. Hiei, Kurama and, Kuwabara just nodded their heads in response.

"No it's not okay! You're not going to search for something that could kill us. Anyway we have school tomorrow and you're coming whether you like it or not!" said Keiko angrily.

"Why should we have to go to school tomorrow? What so Hiei and Kurama can have all the fun searching for the demon?" protested Yusuke.

"Yusuke Urameshi, get real you all are going to school tomorrow. That includes Hiei and Kurama. If you don't I'll tell your mother your planning to kill your self, again," said Keiko making sure he wouldn't say no. Yusuke pictured what his mother would say to him and didn't want that to happen.

"Okay we'll all go to school tomorrow. Anyway there's a chance it could be one of the kids at school," replied Yusuke.

"Hold on, I'm not going to some school," said Hiei.

"Yes you are," said Yusuke in an or else tone of voice. Hiei eventually agreed to come. Then the five of them each set out for their own homes.
*** Yusuke, Keiko and, Kuwabara wait together for Hiei and Kurama to show up.

Hiei walks to them wearing his usual black outfit. Kurama was there with him wearing a school uniform.

"Kurama, what are you wearing?" asked Yusuke with a laugh.

"I think Kurama looks nice in a school uniform and, I bet you would too Yusuke," said Keiko.

"Well, sense you're supposed to wear a uniform, I thought I should wear one too," replied Kurama.

"You don't have too. Even Hiei has fashion sense not to wear one of those things," said Yusuke.

"It really doesn't matter what we wear. We're here to look for a demon and that's what we're doing," said Hiei. They all dropped the conversation and watch the area for something strange.

"Hello Freakitty. It's time for you to hand over your lunch money or you're not getting into school," said a guy picking on a girl about Hiei's height who was on her way into the building.

"Here you go," said the girl handing them the money. Keiko had already started her way over there before Yusuke went to go to beat up the guys for picking on a girl. The guy and his friend left before Keiko could get there. The girl had been continuing walking and Keiko went next to her and started to talk to her.

"Kitty, why did you let those guys take your lunch money?" asked Keiko to the girl.

"Oh hi Keiko. Well it's just pocket change really," replied Kitty.

"But even still, you shouldn't let them do that," said Keiko concernedly.

"Oh well," said Kitty with a shrug of her shoulders then entered the school. Keiko walked back to Yusuke and friends.

"Who's that?" asked Hiei.

"That's just Kitty. People pick on her all the time because they know she won't fight back and defend herself," said Yusuke.

"I don't like it when people pick on her. She's the sweetest girl ever. Why would anyone pick on her? I mean if they really wanted money they could have just asked her. She would have given it to them. Nor can I stand it when people make fun of her," said Kuwabara angrily.

They all headed into the building to go to class. When they got there, yet again people were making fun of Kitty. But this time it was only girls making fun of her. A few of them were friends of Keiko's. She went to tell them to stop it.

"Why are you all making fun of Kitty?" asked Keiko.

"You'd know if you didn't spend all your time with the criminal. You know that guy who asked you out, when Yusuke was supposedly dead? Well, a guy ten times as hot asked Kitty out. You know because she's the sweetest girl in school and all. Well, she said no when he asked her. Think about it Keiko that girl is either blind or stupid to have said no to him. I'd guess both. I mean his family is also, the richest one family in town. She said no," said one of the girls.

"So that doesn't mean you can make fun of her," replied Keiko angrily.

"Yeah and sense when do we have to listen to you?" said another girl.

"I can't believe that because your all jealous that some guy asked her out and not you, you're all making fun of her!" screamed Keiko with anger. Then walked away.

"Man I can't believe that they would do that!" said Kuwabara.

"Yeah, I mean usually I don't care about this sort of stuff but, this is really low," said Yusuke. The school day continued with people constantly making fun of Kitty. Which for some reason started to bother Hiei.
*** Lunchtime. Hiei watched Kitty during lunchtime. She was sitting all alone.

"I was thinking, it is possible that the energy could be coming from Kitty. She must have a lot of emotions bottled up from not saying anything back or fighting back," said Hiei while still looking at Kitty.

"That's impossible," said Yusuke.

"No not entirely," interjected Kurama causing confusion for both Yusuke and Kuwabara.

"Hiei could be onto something. With all her emotions bottled up, they could change into spirit energy. That would end up being a lot of spirit energy," said Kurama.

"So you're saying Hiei actually has some brains up there. I mean down there in his short little head," said Kuwabara. To everyone's surprise Hiei didn't make a comment; he just kept his eyes on Kitty.

"I get it Hiei only said that because he has a crush on Kitty," said Yusuke.

"Ha, what chance does Hiei have with Kitty? He's a ruthless demon, where as, Kitty's the sweetest human girl ever. If he asks her out she's probably going to say no. Just like she did to that "hot" guy," said Kuwabara with a laugh. Hiei yet again didn't say anything.
*** After school at Kuwabara's house.

Everyone was making fun of Hiei for what they hoped is that he liked Kitty. Because otherwise, they would have to apologize to Hiei. Botan came in.

"Hello, boys. I see you're still alive," said Botan.

"Not for long," said Keiko angrily.

"Oh well. I've got the spirit censor. It's fully functional," said Botan handing it to Yusuke.

"We should go and use it to see if the spirit energy is coming from Kitty," said Hiei.

"Yeah but, how are we going to find her. None of us knows where she lives," said Yusuke.

"I know where she lives," said Keiko.

"Okay, then off to Kitty's house," said Kuwabara.

It was a while before they got to Kitty's house. Luckily for them, she was sitting outside on her front porch doing her homework. They made sure Kitty couldn't see them and started up the spirit censor. The readings on Kitty were off the chart.

"Hiei, you were right. The spirit energy is coming from Kitty," said Yusuke with surprise.

"What are we going to do? I'm not going to be able to fight her," said Kuwabara.

"I don't know, I don't know," replied Yusuke.
