Chappy 7: Visiting Grandma
Almost as soon as they were out of the crowds of students rushing to get away from the school, the spirit detectives were confronted with Koenma's giant toddler head in the sky. "Botan, open a portal to Reikai right away. We have some information on that girl."
She did as instructed (in an abandoned alleyway, of course) and soon everyone was in Koenma's spacious office. "Okay, now, about this girl."
"Her name is Kagome Higurashi," Yusuke interrupted. "She lives in a shrine with her mom, grampa, and brother. She was transferred to our school because she's sick all the time with some kind of deadly diseases."
"Actually, Yusuke, you were right about everything but the sick part. Kagome has never been sick a day in her life with anything but a cold. By doing some very thorough research, we have discovered that whenever she is reported sick, her spirit energy completely dissipates, and so does her life energy. In other words, she disappears. It's strange because she has such a large amount of energy, it's hard not to notice her, but she has supposedly learned how to mask that energy."
"From what I could gather, she always has some energy released at all times," said Kurama.
"Why do you say that? I didn't sense anything," said Botan.
"It was at lunch today. While she sat by me, I felt a small sting, like a warning. Perhaps she sensed I was youkai if no one else felt it. Or perhaps her energy acts of her own accord, and she doesn't know a thing about youkai or otherwise."
"That's something to think about," Koenma said seriously; then, cheering up 110%, "Why don't you guys go visit Genkai. She might know something!"
And so Botan opened a portal which she, Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, Kiei, and Keiko (she knows about Reikai and everything that goes with it) stepped through.
******Genkai's temple
"Botan, why couldn't you open a portal where we don't have to walk up millions of steps?"
"Stop complaining Yusuke. Genkai has spiritual defenses all over her temple. Who knows what would happen if I tried to open a portal up there. Besides, there's nothing bad about getting a little exercise."
"My beautiful Yukina, I, your love, the Great Kuwabara, am coming!" said the 'Great' (cough*baka!*cough) Kuwabara as he charged up the steps, full of energy. Sweatdrops all around, except for Hiei, who narrowed his eyes and thought of painful ways to kill the baka if he got too close to his sister.
Once everyone just about died on the steps, they reached the top, where Kuwabara was kneeling before Yukina, holding her hands and declaring his undying love to the unfortunate ice apparition. He was saved from being killed by Hiei's sword when Genkai came out to greet her visitors.
"Hey, grandma, long time no see." Said Yusuke.
Almost as fast as Hiei Genkai ran over to Yusuke, hit him upside the head, and was back at her starting position. "What do you and your friends want dimwit?"
Kurama, the only one who would speak civilly, answered. "There is a girl with high spirit energy we were hoping you might know about."
"I may. Do you know her name?"
"Yes, it's-"
"Grandma! The tea is ready." Called a voice from Genkai's kitchen.
"I'll be there in a moment Kagome. We have guests."
'Kagome?!' was what everyone but Genkai was thinking.
"Hey, why does she get to call you grandma and you be okay with it when you hit me every time?" Yusuke asked as Genkai led them all inside. Kagome came out with a tray of tea for everyone.
"Maybe it's because I'm her granddaughter."
"What?!"
Genkai nodded once. "It's true. We're related through her father."
Talk went on for a while when Kagome suddenly looked at her watch and gasped. "I'm late! Ohnoohnoohno! He's gonna kill me this time for sure! Bye, Grandma Genkai, thanks for the advice. And it was nice seeing you guys again, too." She ran out, but not before giving her grandma a look that said 'don't tell'. A split second later, the look was gone and she was bounding out the door, making the spirit detectives wonder where she learned to run so fast. (comes from being chased all the time^_^) Obviously thinking no one could hear her once she was at the steps, she said, "Inuyasha has probably already come through the well already! I've got to hurry!"
The two youkai looked at each other. Inuyasha (Dog Demon)? And what was so special about a well?
A/N: okay, just a quick note. I know I said in the last chapter that kag would be going to the feudal era, but that was because at first these chappies were going to be together, but I just ended up really behind and just needed to post a quick chappy. So she'll be going back next time, I promise. I hope to have it out by Sunday. And if something doesn't sound right in this one, that's because I didn't check it over.
REVIEWer Responses:
Shinigami Clara: Sorry, I used the wrong word. You were the first person to give me a death threat. You may keep your year's supply of imaginary cookies. ^_^
Kuro honoo: I'm thinking about an inu/botan thing, too, if I can't figure something else out because his ears are too cute for someone not to like them. SilentDark wants to be put in that role so we'll see how that goes. Thanx for the candy. Happy belated Halloween!
Xianghua: Thanx for the compliment! You're the one who really got me started on this chappy, cuz I'm a lethargic procrastinator (a.k.a. lazy bum). Love and Peace! ^_^!
SilentDark: I'd love to put you in my story. But instead of REVIEWing, please send me an email so nothing will be spoiled if someone reads the REVIEW. If your email isn't working, then ignore what I just said. Anywho, please send the following info and more if you want: what you would like to be called; weapons, attacks, etc.; description, both physical and personality; any certain clothes you would like, or I could make something up. I think that's it; just send more if I forgot anything. I already have a way for you to come into the story. Oh yeah, if you like, I could tell you how to post on ff.net (if you use Word).
