Falcon- Hey ya! Didja miss me?

Raptor- Why would they miss you?

Libra- I was thinking the same thing.

Falcon- Kurama, do me a favor.

Kurama- What? Beat them up?

Falcon- Nooooo.........Put my Confessions cd in.

Kurama- O-kay...

Hueso- You're a moron.

Falcon- =gasp= I have just been complemented! (?) Spell check just said change 'you're' to 'you is', Hueso.

Hueso- And they wonder why grammar is bad down here.

Falcon- Seriously. These people have issues. Ghetto word art: I'll make millions!

EveryoneElse- =sweatdrop=

Falcon- I don't own YuYu Hakusho, if I did, Yukina would slap Kuwabara when he acts dumb, Hiei would be free to destroy stuff, and Kurama would be accepted by his mom!

=awww......=

Falcon- Shuddup.

==========================================================

Da-dun, da-dun, da-dun, (Bear with me, 'In Da Club' ring tone.)

"Yellow." Raptor answered. He was standing around Yusuke's high school, waiting for him.

"It's 'hello', baka." Hiei corrected from his tree next to Kurama's house. He was waiting for Kurama to get home with his 'new clothes'. Heh, his were fine, he didn't need new ones. "Where's Yusuke?"

"Still in school, genius. He actually went today." Raptor heard the bell ring from inside the school. "He's coming. Why are you calling me and asking for him, he's got a phone."

"I needed to talk to you first."

"Oh. Okay, what's up, hokage?" (Hokage means fire shadow)

"Kurama's stepfather never made it to Kyoto." Hiei said flatly.

"How do you know that?"

"Because his truck was sitting at a light, with him in it, for hours."

"How do you know that?" Raptor repeated, searching the crowd for Yusuke's energy.

"The forever intelligent ningens just found him. Everything should still be there. We should go check it out."

"Wow, you actually care about him."

"No, I don't. But my prints are on his key and the door handle. Shori will mention he never got along with me, and they'll think I had something to do with it."

"You want to do what, exactly?"

Hiei growled in annoyance. "/meet me there. Just follow the scent./" He said in Raptor's language. Click.

"/Alrighty./" Click.

Raptor sighed. This was dumb, looking for Yusuke, in case he forgot, he was BLIND! Its 2:35 and no sign of the punk. He hated waiting for him, but he could always rant about it late, if he EVER SHOWED UP!

He put his hands in his trench coat's pockets(I like trench coats!), he had left his cane in the cave, since some kids from the school thought it would be funny to try and take it. But after they were rammed against the concrete wall that surrounded the school, they changed their minds. He had barely avoided the principal then, because he suspected he wouldn't like the fact someone was near his school when they didn't go there, especially him. He looked up towards the sun. He knew it had to have been at least ten minutes now!

"What're you doing?" A voice said behind him, a girl.

"I dunno. Waiting for someone." He said, his voice sounded irritated.

"I could help you. Who are you looking for?" She said in a concerned voice.

"Yusuke Urameshi. Have you seen him?"

"You're looking for Yusuke? That's a first, no one looks for him unless they want to fight. I tell him to cut it out but he never listens."

"So, you know where he is, right?" Raptor asked. "Did the moron get detention or something?"

SLAP!

"Jeez, onna! What did you do that for!?"

"Don't call him a moron!"

Raptor grabbed her by the throat and pushed her against the wall. She tried to look around. There was no one except the football team on the other side of the school. Screaming now seemed pretty damn pointless.

"What, what do you want?" She said nervously.

"Heh." Raptor went in for her neck.

"Raptor, leave Keiko alone." Yusuke said, now behind them.

Raptor made a hiss in his throat. He bared his fangs at her for a second, letting her see the very sharp fangs.

"You okay?" Yusuke asked.

"Yes, I'm okay." Keiko answered.

Yusuke rolled his eyes. "Not you, I'm talkin' to him!"

"I'm fine." Raptor growled, "Damn, where'd she learn how to slap someone so friggin' hard?"

"I've tried to find out the same thing."

"Um, Yusuke? He just tried to eat me! Isn't your job to kill things that want to eat people?" Keiko tapped her foot.

"He's cool, though. Koenma made him part of the team."

Raptor decided to take this time to hit Yusuke square in the face.

"What the hell was that about?!" He demanded to the vampire.

"I stayed out here waiting for you too long, baka. I've got better things to do in the daytime."

"Like what?" Yusuke's face was now inches from Raptors.

"Sleep." Raptor grinned. His serious tone quickly changed. "Sleep, sleep, sleepy-sleep sleep!" Keiko raised a brow, what was up with this guy? He had to be schizo or something. But he kind of was like Yusuke, only more dangerous.

"Oh-kay......" Yusuke said. "Did you put sugar in the blood again?"

"Nope! Mixed it with mountain dew! Lots of mountain dew!" Raptor's face stiffened. "Actually, I'm just messin' with you. Oh, yeah, Kurama's stepdad's gone."

"Yeah, Hiei ran him out of here."

"The other gone." Raptor ran his hand through his spiked hair, as if he was bored with what was going on. "We gotta meet Hiei over there. The others should be there, but I don't know."

"Let's go." Yusuke started walking in the direction of Kurama's neighborhood. Keiko walked up to him.

"I'm coming with you."

"You're not." Yusuke said sternly. "Go meet your friends at the café like you said you would earlier, or somethin'."

"You owe me, Yusuke."

"Fine, whatever."

Keiko walked away, heading in the opposite direction.

=======================================

"'bout time, you two." Hueso said, leaning against an electrical pole with his arms crossed.

"What took you so long?" Hiei asked, but before Yusuke answered, Hiei finished going through his head. "Baka. Should've let him."

"Whatever." Yusuke risked playfully punching Hiei's shoulder. Amazingly, Hiei didn't fry his fist. "So, what's up with all this?"

"We're trying to figure out how he got killed, but, we can't tell because these 'nice' detectives won't let us get near." Kurama muttered. "I've even said he was my stepfather, but they won't let us in there."

"Well, we could just- jeez, Hueso, what the heck is that?!" Yusuke blurted, looking at the huge black bug on Hueso's shoulder.

"Relax, it's Libra." Hueso said flatly. "He's got an idea."

"Like what, go have a cop squash him?" Kuwabara said sarcastically.

Hueso rolled his eyes. He took Libra off his shoulder and put him on the ground. Libra rushed on his six legs over to the SUV and climbed up into it. He climbed onto the dashboard and looked around, thinking of how oblivious the police were. He saw Takanara's neck. It was severely burned and had deep puncture wounds. He climbed down and started to head towards the others.

"What the hell is that?" One of the detectives looked down at Libra, who turned around and raised his claws and tail in a threat. "Hey, Mark, look at this, what's a scorpion doing around here?"

"I dunno." The one named Mark said. "Might be evidence, might be someone's pet. But these things are deadly, might want to shoot it."

"Good idea." The one detective pulled out his gun and aimed it at Libra. Libra quickly ran up to the man's shoe and crawled on it and went in his pants a little. He stung the man immediately.

"Ah, crap!"

"What?"

"Damn thing stung me!"

"Hey, Libra!" The two detectives looked up at the group of boys standing just outside the tape. They looked at the metallic-blue haired one.

"Who the hell's Libra? Kid, go call an ambulance, I got stung!"

"Uh, Dave, look."

Dave looked at the scorpion as it rushed up to the kid who said 'Libra'. It climbed into his hand and went up his arm to rest on his shoulder.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Dave demanded. These kids couldn't be near his crime scene!

"Same as you." Hueso said plainly, picking up a shard of glass. "Gathering evidence." He threw the glass and it fell at the detectives feet, shattering. "You forgot a piece." He turned around and started walking off, they looked at them as the short one with black spiked hair vanished, leaving an after-image for a split second. The others walked off, after looking in the direction of the truck.

======================================

"So, burn marks and a bite, wonder what could do that?" Kuwabara thought, putting his hand to his chin.

"Sangre could, teme." Hiei said, monotone as usual. "We haven't seen him since the sentencing."

"It is rather unusual that Koenma hasn't sent Botan after us to tell us to hunt him down, though." Kurama muttered with his eyes closed. "Perhaps he was supposed to kill Takanara eventually."

"That could be." Libra said. "But why did he burn him and not me? When I got too close to him, he bit me."

"Maybe it's because you're a demon, Libra." Hueso added, somewhat bored with the conversation.

"That couldn't be it." Hiei got up from Yusuke's window. "Personal experience shows demons are very liable to burns."

"He needed him." Raptor spoke.

"What?"

"Lord Sangre needed to bite Takanara to feed off of the darkness in him, the more he takes, the closer he'll be to getting rid of his own. But first he has to make his own evil reach its peak." Raptor stared into space the entire time he said that, receiving confused stares from everyone but Hiei, who still had his 'I hate everyone' expression.

"Why didn't you mention this earlier?" Yusuke asked.

"Because he just told me."

"Huh?" Yusuke looked at Hiei, who stared at Raptor.

"You two use me as your own personal telephone and you'll both burst into flames. And stay dead." Hiei said darkly.

"He did it, not me." Raptor sighed. "And, Yusuke, you might want to invite him in."

"What?" Yusuke walked up to the door and opened it. There stood Sangre, covering himself with a thick blanket to protect him from the sun. Sangre's orange eyes locked with Yusuke's brown eyes. "Well, where've you been?"

"Busy." Sangre said in his Russian accent. (I don't type accents, use your 'magination) "Are you going to invite me in or not?"

"Hmm......"Yusuke thought.

"I invite you in." Hiei called from inside.

"HEY!" Yusuke yelled as Sangre walked in. "You can't invite him in! You don't live here! You don't live anywhere!"

"Actually, Yusuke, you set a bed aside in here for Hiei, remember?" Kurama said to the fuming detective.

Yusuke marched into his room, right behind Sangre. Hiei had closed the blinds so it was 'safe' for Sangre. He leaned against the wall, standing next to his loyal minions.

"So, Sangre, what's up with the whole killing Takanara thing?" Raptor said, rarely acknowledging his sire's superiority.

Sangre smirked at the unruly demon. Two hundred years, and he was still stuck in the rebellious stage. "I told you why. To be honest he was at the right place at the wrong time. The fact he was a conniving little ningen was a bonus."

Kurama looked at Sangre in puzzlement. He went after Takanara because he was bored.

/I like him./

Why?

/He kills enemies without knowing they're enemies./

He doesn't care.

/You should've gotten rid of Takanara. You had your chance in the kitchen, you know./

My mother liked him. I could've beared going on with the bastard if it made her happy.

/That's your problem./

What?

/You keep trying to satisfy everyone, and you don't think about us. Well, they aren't doing a damn thing for us, Suuichi! You try too hard. If they don't like what you do, then too bad!/

Kurama sighed. Youko ranted so much that it plagued his mind, made it harder to NOT pay attention to what he said. With Kuwabara it was easy to tune out. But Youko, he and Youko were the same person/demon, and tuning yourself out was the one thing Kurama knew he couldn't do. Youko was getting to him.

==========================================================

Falcon- Okay, my mind has run out of ideas for now.

Raptor- You say it like it's something new.

Falcon- =sigh= Yeah. I'll try to update Monday or Tuesday. Tell 'em what they get.

Raptor (announcer voice)- You get............ A BRAND NEW CAR! A H2 Hummer in 'Kurama Red', 'Hiei Black', 'Touya Blue', 'Botan Pink', 'Kuwabara Orange', or 'Yukina SeaGreen'! Fully customized with spinners, a huge sound system, hydraulics, and items that go with whichever color you choose! (Normal voice) Why do they get spinners and hydraulics?

Falcon- I'm a southern girl, that's what I do.

Raptor- That's not southern, that's ghetto, or whatever.

Kurama- Oh, well, R&R!
