Chapter 6
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The thunder hung in the air as to let its sound dance in the sinister sky. The lighting jumped from cloud to cloud and a wicked man sat in the high tower of his huge dark fortress. Any one to venture out into this arid region of dark times and dry hopes would surely lose their mind. The air smelled of sulfur and was uninhabited by birds. Not a living thing would ever survive in its rank shadows.
Natsu the dark king of the dead land with no name, loved the darkness and would never dream of leaving his home, but he grew tired of the humans, demons, and spirits. he wanted to take what he owned and share it with the worlds and as king, rule all. It was the perfect arrangement of chaos. He would start by poisoning the Ningen world, make them hate and lust to be bad. And as the hate grew in numbers in the Ningen world, so it would for the Makai. The worlds would then be connected and Natsu would be king of a glorious and bleak new world.
"Sir." Said a minion with little black eyes and blue skin.
Natsu sat in his throne made from the bones of his parents and siblings he had killed out of rage on a gloomy night. As he stood his white hair was long and winding, a bolt of pure black strands shot out from the others. His dark yellow eyes were hidden by shadows and his dark voice answered. "What is it, you pest?" His words came as acid, chewing through wood.
"Koenma, prince of the Reikai, has gotten wind of the operation and is sending." he hissed to a stop when Natsu's had gone up in warning.
"I know. He is sending his team of detectives to seek me out and stop my plans. You must not let this interfere with the plan. They can do nothing to me." Natsu flicked his wrist and a band of tall, fat, minions with black wings and sharp, blood stained teeth stood before him.
"I see master." The little minion left, the others following him.
"Koenma." Natsu said to himself. "You must have a sense of humor to even try to stop me." His metallic laughter was swallowed by the thunder.

Machiko's Arrow hit Hiei straight on, into his flesh, into his very soul. And he doubled over in pain. As he held on to his Katana for support, Machiko dropped her bow and ran to Hiei.
"Are you okay? I had no idea I could do that. I am so sorry."
"Hn. Foolish girl." He spat. "I have not given up yet." He said and stood up, pulling off his bandana. Machiko could only wonder what was to happen next, so as quick as she could she ran for her bow.
***********
"Think of the solution not the problem. I told you to concentrate." Kurama said.
"I can't do this Kurama." Cindy yelled. "I told you I am not a demon!" with the emphasis on "told"
He said nothing but gave her a glare as if to say 'even if you are not a demon you will move the bolder.' He had set up a course and Cindy was still on stage one, she had to move a ten-foot rock with her mind. She had been trying since ten that morning and the day was nearly over. "We will not be leaving this spot until you move this rock. You have to learn to use your powers, whatever they may be. When you discover them, you should be able to do it." He told her
"I just can't remember, I don't want to. If I do try and remember and what I have been told is true, then- my life is a lie, all I have done in the Ningen world will have been for nothing. Don't you see I don't want to remember." Cindy said
"I see. well if that is the way you see it then I guess the worlds are condemned to darkness." Kurama stood up and walked toward her. "Firstly you must know that everything in life happens for a reason. And secondly, I want you to stop being so selfish." He walked off. "We will continue this tomorrow." He left her sitting in the twilight.

As Hiei was about to get serious, Kuwabara and Yusuke showed up. "Hey three eyes." Kuwabara yelled.
Hiei did not even glance and Kuwabara, he wasn't in the mood to play names games with the human. He kept his eyes on the, now terrified, Machiko.
"Who's the fox?" Yusuke asked. "Is that, Maryann?" he asked.
"Urameshi," Kuwabara said "remember what Koenma sent us out here for."
"Oh, yeah. It's time for dinner. And he also has to finish telling us about our newest mission.
Hiei stopped, turned to Yusuke and back to Machiko, "Hn." He said, put on the bandana, and walked off toward Koenma's palace.
"What's with him?" Yusuke asked Machiko.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Machiko had not reverted back to her human form for she was comfortable in her demon form. It felt good, like she was home. Cindy decided not to go to dinner, nor hear what Koenma had to say. Cindy was bathing in her depression once more.
The others however were hungry and were all sitting around a huge table. Kurama, Hiei, Botan, Yusuke, Kayko, Yukina, Kuwabara, Machiko, and lastly Koenma.
The antagonist is here, dun dun dun. :[ what is up with Cindy? Will she ever come to realize that she is a demon? Will she learn to face her fear, he past? Star
