Somebody New

Chapter Two


Yusuke Urameshi woke up with a blinding white light shining in his eyes, making his head pound harder. "Ugh, turn the damn light off!" he mumbled weakly as he lifted one hand to shield his eyes.

"No can do!" said an annoyingly cheerful and familiar toddler's voice, covering Yusuke's view. "WAKE UP!" Koenma screamed and again, Yuskue's head throbbed.

"What the heck is up with you?" he demanded, not sitting up and squeezing his eyes shut. "Why are you so happy?"

"Just wake up!" Koenma replied impatiently.

"NO!"

"Wake up, Urameshi!" said the raspy voice of Kuwabara.

Yusuke slowly opened his eyes, squinting in the light and sat up from the table he was on. He noticed he was in Koenma's office, with piles of folders and stacks of paper everywhere, and his teammates around him.

"Finally." Hiei muttered behind him.

"Are you guys okay?" Yusuke asked.

"Yeah." Kuwabara answered. "We-" he began but was cut off by someone entering the room with a loud bang.

"Koenma, what the hell are you trying to prove?" the girl from the alley demanded as she stalked in.

"Serena! Hey," Koenma trailed off, walking back into the wall, away from the girl.

"Hey!" Yusuke said loudly, "You're the girl from the alleyway!" he said quickly.

The girl turned around to face the rest of them. She was a little shorter than Yusuke was with long, straight black hair and two startling aqua eyes that stood out against her long dark lashes and tan skin. Nothing to it, she was beautiful.

"My name is not 'hey,' it's Serena." She shot back then turned back to Koenma. "You still haven't answered me."

"Let me explain," He said.

"Please do, because your dad isn't too happy right now." She replied.

"MY DAD?!" he squeaked in panic. "HOW'D HE FIND OUT?"

"It's not hard to figure out when the job was for me in the first place, but then me having to save your pathetic little whelps wasn't exactly what your father wanted." She said.

"HEY!" Kuwabara and Yusuke blurted loudly.

"Got something to say?" she asked, glared at them.

"I didn't know the job was for you!" Koenma whined.

"You know how powerful Echo Demons are! And they don't have the right training for it! Why'd you even send them out there if you knew they would be killed? Do you want them to die?" Serena asked.

"What is she talking about, toddler?" Yusuke asked.

"Yeah and who is she calling a pathetic little whelp?" Kuwabara injected.

"Stay out of this, slick," Serena growled at Yusuke, than turned to Kuwabara. "I'm calling you a pathetic little whelp. I have to admit, Three-Eyes over there is pretty fast but really, all of you suck." She said while Hiei tried to hide a slightest shade of pink in his cheeks.

Yusuke opened his mouth to say something but Koenma continued before he could start.

"What are you doing here anyway? And how did an Echo Demon get in here? They shouldn't be able to pass through this barrier!"

"Well it did and your father made it clear that if this were to ever come up, you would leave it up to me or Chaos." She said.

"That was 500 years ago! I forgot! And I didn't know you were here, I'm not just gonna sit back and watch Demons destroy the Earth!!"

"Yeah!" Kuwabara and Yusuke agreed.

Serena rolled her eyes. "Bull shit you forgot! Your father left you the responsibility for this world and you've been doing a shitty job." She spat.

"HEY!" the two barked.

"Will you two macho men just shut up already?" she asked them in such an annoyed tone, they both shut up for a moment, so Serena turned back to Koenma. "Whatever. You can settle this with your father. Oh, and in the mean time," she said looking over at the Yusuke and Kuwabara. "I suggest you get stronger fighters." She said than turned on her heel and left.

"That went well." Kurama murmured.

"Shut up."
