This Is What I Found
Chapter: 2
Recap : Ericka and her family along with other occupants in the hotel are trapped in a fire thanks to Karasu.
-What are we going to do we're completely trapped. God I wish I could do something there are children here- Ericka thought looking around at all the barely visible people.
The smoke now had them in a cloud so thick they could barely see their hands in front of their faces. All they could hear was coughing all around them do to the intoxicating smoke. Everyone with a look of either Fear or Sorrow on their faces. Everyone there had the same question in their minds "When will 'they' come?" And by they, they meant the Firemen. -Humph some hero's they are...-thought Ericka.

"HELP ME! SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME! "yelled a small voice from one of the rooms.
"OH NO!KOHAKU! WHERE ARE YOU! "yelled a very distressed women at the side of the hallway.
Running to the edge of where the flames were Ericka tried tolisten for the boys voice. When she had finally determined which room the
person was in she looked for something to open the door with that was when she noticed that something wasn't right.-Why aren't we dead yet?-she
asked herself-the fire should have killed us all by now- She thought looking at the border-line between the fire and what little room remained
theirs.-The fire is being held back as if a barrier is there, but even if there is one it will only prolong our deaths. If we stay here much we
will all die from the smoke anyway. Oh no the person! I totally forgot- Ericka thought as she ran straight through the flames and door into the
room completely ignoring her families screams of protest. Upon entering the room she saw a girl about her brothers age(11) lying
unconscious on the floor near the bed.-Oh no I'm too late-Ericka thought running over to the girl fearing the worst. Ericka lifted the girls head
onto her lap and felt for a pulse.- She's so cold and I don't feel a pulse-Ericka thought sorrow and regret pouring over her in waves.
"You can't help someone who is too weak to help themselves," said a voice from the window. Whipping her head around she saw him
again." Who are you and why aren't you helping me or anyone else here?" Ericka as distress the feeling that now overpowered her.
"How rude of me. I am Karasu and I was sent here to ...",Karasu paused as though looking for a specific word," collect you," Karasu
finished. With a sudden rush of rage Ericka yelled at Karasu "GOD DAMN YOU TO HELL! GET AWAY FROM ME IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO HELP ME! "In the process she also succeeded in sending him back into a wall. Turning back to the dead girl she put her aside and stood up whispering," I'm sorry I was to late." Then she turned back to Karasu her Sapphire blue eyes now glowing a bright neon blue." Now leave. I have no time to deal with you I
have more important things to do right now," Ericka said in a deathly calm voice. "Right now I must save these people," Ericka said leaving the
room with a flash of light she and the people were gone.

"I've got a question for you Toguro," Sakyo said watching the hanyou girl through a screen as she teleported herself and all the
people to safety." Why did the girls powers surface when they did and not when she was in the room with her parents trapped at
the beginning?" Sakyo asked.

"That would be because she is a hanyou, and Hanyou almost always gain the power to save themselves when theitr lices are in danger which also makes fighting them most enjoyable," Toguro replied with a sneer.

"I understand that but I also understand that Hanyou lose control of their minds while in that form, why was she able to accomplish her task when she should not be able to?" Sakyo asked.
"That would be her psychic half taking affect. Her desire to help those people was strong enough to stay in control," Toguro said replying.

"The girl was stronger than I had originally thought," said Karasu entering from the shadows.
"Indeed she was," Sakyo stated calmly.
"Next time you will not underestimate the girl and Bui will be accompanying you," said Toguro Starring at the screen as the Hanyou passed out in the woods.

"Huh what happened?" Ericka asked aloud getting up from the ground, "Where am I and how did I get here?" She thought aloud looking
around at the woods in front of her.-This is so beyond weird how did I get here with all these people?- Ericka thought .
"What are we going to do? She wasn't supposed to be able to do that!" Exclaimed her mother.
"I know but we will have to deal with it and she did only goodwith her powers anyway," said her father clearly defending her. Ericka slowly crept behind a tree to listen in on her parents conversation. "We have to tell her now," said her father.

"No... we can't it would be too strange... all the things we've kept from her," said her mother looking down her face hidden from view, "Besides you told me that this wouldn't happen, you told me that we could raise them like normal humans, how did this happen?" she said looking at
her husband.
"Leah, calm down I also remember telling you that there was a chance that their powers would awaken at some point in time. This was the chance we chose to take. We will just have to explain to her what has happened," Her father said calmly.
"But Rick how do you think she will respond when we tell her that she's half demon? What do you think she'll say? She definitely won't be happy. Besides we would have to tell her about everything like the Makai. What are we going to do? Just go up to her and say ' Ericka you're half psychic demon, and you have psychic powers so we would appreciate it if you used your powers for good and not evil'? Is that how its going to be?" said Leah glaring at her husband. Then they heard a noise and turned to see Ericka running towards the trees

- I can't believe they never told us! I mean is they knew that there was a chance that we their own children could end up like this then why wouldn't they tell us? Why Why? Why?- Ericka thought angrily not noticing that she was headed straight for a gang of demons. By the time she noticed she was face-to-face with one of them. -Oh no. what am I going to do now?- Ericka thought as the demons silently surrounded her laughing at their good fortune of having found something to play with.
"What have we here?" a demon said
"It's a weak human girl," said another.
"Lets have our fun before Koenma's team gets here," said another. Then the one who looked like their leader stepped up.
"Let me have my fun with her first," he said looking Ericka up and down.

"Karasu this time there will be no mistakes. You will go save the girl with Bui, and bring her here," said Sakyo not even looking at Karasu. Karasu and Bui left without another word. Then the Toguro Brothers entered
the room.
"Sakyo why go through the trouble of saving that girl when you could just kill her?" asked the Elder brother.
"Killing her would be both a waste of Talent and money I believe that with training we could make a very big profit off of her," Sakyo said getting up and heading towards the door. "We should head down to welcome our guest,"

"What is it Koenma?" Botan said as she rushed into Koenma's office.
"If we don't act fast an innocent life will be lost and a powerful one at that," said Koenma hopping down from his chair and heading towards the door. "I need you to get Yusuke and the rest of them to the forest on the outskirts of town now. While I go do some research,"
"Got it," Said Botan pulling out her oar and flying away. On her way to Yusuke's house she saw Keiko and was about to ask her where Yusuke was when out of nowhere a demon popped out and attacked her.
"Keiko use this to call Yusuke," Botan cried as she flew higher on her oar.
"But I don't understand...how do I contact Yusuke with this?" Keiko said looking at the communication mirror.
"Open it and call Yusuke," Botan said as she dodged another attack. Listening to Botan's instruction Keiko opened the mirror and Yusuke could be seen.
"Yusuke, Yusuke! Get over here right now this thing is attacking Botan! Hurry!" Keiko yelled into the mirror. As soon as Keiko turned around the demon was heading straight for her. Keiko turned and ran as fast as she could to get away but she was cornered.
"KEIKO DUCK!" yelled Yusuke from outside of the circle of demons just as they were going to attck Keiko. Yusuke shot a spirit gun blast at the one nearest to Keiko and beat up the others. Running over to Keiko Yusuke asked," Are you ok Keiko? And Where is Botan?"
"I'm fine Yusuke but Botan's up there ,"she said pointing up into the sky where Botan was trying to dodge the attacks from some of the flying demons. By the time Yusuke got Botan to safety, Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara were already there.
"Koenma has a mission for you if it isn't to late already, "Botan said adn then told them about the girl in the forest.

-What am I going to do? I can't fight them off- Ericka thought frantically dodging the leaders attempts to catch her. Then all of sudden the demons exploded and she was knocked unconscious, but before she completely black out she caught a glimpse of Karasu.
