Disclaimers: No comment. But I'll tell you one thing. I don't own anything.
Heh... I'm soooooooooo bored.... I've almost finished my supply of unread fics and my modem is STILL not fixed.... *sniffles* What'll I do when I actually run out of fics? Write my own, of course. That's why I'm writing ne?
Ei there, Tomo-chan... or rather, Chibishie-chan~ *winks mischeiviously* Hi also to Ayori-neechan/kaachan, Banana and Gorrs. ^_^

Chapter 2
"What the hell?!" Leorio exclaimed, horrorstruck at the sight of the big brute charging towards them. It really is a very horrible thing to look at, what with the great, big, ugly snout and hairy body.... Thinking that the beast can't see them as they were hiding behind the wall, he grabbed Kurapika and dragged the two of them into view.
"Leorio!!!" Kurapika yelled out, struggling to free himself from the doctor's iron grip. Even if the brute DID see them, he doubted if he would stop just for the sake of two HUMANS. Forcing his hand free, he materialized his dowsing chain, the chain with the metal ball at the end. It won't kill the beast, thus, keeping his end of the "Limitation and Vow" deal. They would have run away but they were stuck between two alley walls and a dead end behind them. Talk about stuck between two rocks plus one!
"Hey! Don't come near us!" Leorio hollered at the charging brute. He made a step forward, intending to run towards the opening but realized that they wouldn't make it in time. It was either fight or be squashed, and Leorio had much experience concerning both enough to know that the former was better than the latter.
He took his small knife from his coat and got in a defensive stance, taking a glance at the similarly poised blond.
~~~
Kurama smirked at the fleeing youkai. What a coward... And to think that he had the NERVE, trying to assassinate Koenma.... As if he could get anywhere without being noticed, with his hideous looks, humongous build and all... *I guess Yusuke and Kuwabara aren't going to get any fun today*
He was just in the act of leaping to deliver the finishing blow, however, when he skidded to a horrified halt. He gasped as Leorio and Kurapika came into view *What are Kurapika and Leorio DOING here?!* Worse yet, Kougo was rushing blindingly straight at them!
"Kurapika-san!!! Leorio-san!!! Watch out!!!" Kurama yelled out. He felt a displacement of air as Hiei quickly rushed forward, intending to kill the youkai [demon] before he got anywhere near the two hunters.
Before Hiei got close enough, a portal opened behind the two humans and the youkai barged into them, dragging the pair along with him.
Into the unfamiliar world of Makai.
~~~
Leorio screamed as he fell down, pushed by the hideous beast into a light that flashed suddenly behind him. He waited for the impact of his landing, his behind already expecting the hard concrete to meet it. A hard landing he expected, and a hard landing he got.
As soon as he felt that everything has stopped spinning enough for him open his eyes, he was met by the sight of a hideously hideous face almost touching his own slightly better looking one.
Leorio's peircing scream filled the air. In fact, he screamed so loudly and so highly that Kurapika immediately sat up, throwing whatever heavy thing that was on top of him off.
"Leorio! Dosh'ta? [What's wrong?]" Kurapika asked worriedly, searching blindly for his comrade. *Since when did the sun set?*
"Argh!!! Kurapika!!! Tasukete! [Help!]" Leorio clawed at the unconscious beast in a panic. With a frantic heave, he managed to push it off.
Gasping for air, Leorio scrambled to where he thought Kurapika was.
"Leorio!" Kurapika exclaimed, slapping Leorio's arm from clinging to his waist.
Giving a wince for his sore backside, he stood up and allowed his eyes to adjust to the darkness. As soon as he'd done exactly that, he looked at the knocked out youkai.
"He's still unconscious. Wonder why..." Kurapika mumbled to himself. His range of sight finally widening around enough for him to take a look where they were, he turned his head around. His eyes widened as soon as he realized that they weren't where the were before.
"Leorio... where not in the city anymore!" Kurapika said, swiftly turning around to face his companion.
"What?! But that's impossible! We were just there SECONDS ago!" Leorio exclaimed, standing up and walking towards the blond. He was getting freaked out with every second that passsed.
"I know. I think that flash of light was actually a portal that brought us here. Judging from the amount of energy that I felt from it, that must be why this youkai here..." he nudged the immobile creature with his foot "...is still out cold. He must have used a great amount ki to make that portal up, and with both of us in tow, it must have taken even more energy."
"I see.... Well then.... Where are we NOW?" Leorio demanded.
"I don't know..." Kurapika frowned thoughfully.
"Well?"
"It's safe to assume that we're in the Makai [Demonworld]" Kurapika concluded
"Ah... I see.... I thought we've been transported into another planet or something.... WAIT A MINUTE!!! MAKAI?!?!?!" If Leorio had been drinking any beverage in front of anybody, that unfortunate anybody would be drenched to the skin by now. He is now officially freaked out. As in REALLY freaked out.
"Yes, Leorio. We're in Makai. Can't you sense the energy surrounding us? It's definitely of a different pattern than what humans have. This must be the youki [Demon Energy] Minamono-san had told us about before." Kurapika explained
"How do we get home then? I don't want to be youkai food!" Leorio stood even closer to the blond for protection. If Gon and Killua could see them now, they would laugh directly on the poor man's face. Imagine a huge guy seeking protection from a smaller, feminine looking boy. Ridiculous.
"I don't know. But judging from what Minamono-san told us, Makai is in a totally different dimension from our own world. It means then that we can't just go back home through the more normal means. We have to find someone who can transport us back."
"But... who? Where? How?" Leorio gave an almost childish pout.
"I don't know anyone here, Leorio. I doubt if the people here will be willing to help us go back home. For all we know, they'll just eat us as soon as they catch sight of us" Kurapika rubbed his wrists, trying to warm himself a little. Normally, he wouldn'y mind the cold, but Makai's chilly atmosphere wasn't like the usual cold he was used to. There was an added creepiness that made one shiver.
"So... what do we do now? We can't just stay here and wait for Mr. Kougo here to wake up. Going anywhere might put us in even more danger."
"We travel. There's absolutely no choice." Kurapika shrugged and headed in an Easternly direction. Leorio whined a bit but followed.
After all... as the younger boy had said, they had no choice.
~~~~~
"Hiei! They're gone!" Kurama cried out, running to the spot where the three had disappeared. He felt the leftovers of the energy of the portal. Whoever that Kougo is, he's atleast skillful enough to actually manage creating a portal.
"Hn. Let's wait for Yusuke and the Oaf before following them." The fire demon muttered, sheathing his katana.
"Makai is such a large place... I hope they manage to stay alive... Atleast just until we get there."
"I doubt if they can handle it, although the kid has a chance"
Kurama frowned a bit and waited for the two other Tanteis
