I own nothing except Kila, the plot, and Ryuken (Which I just realized
means "Dragon sword" quite literally.). Okay, here is the next chapter of
"The new girl and the mystery." Hope you all enjoy it!
(Chapter 8: Saving Private Yusuke (Kila's POV) (Name borrowed from "Saving Private Ryan"))
I watched as the boys and Botan lead the way towards where Yusuke was being held captive.
'Wait a second!' I thought to myself. 'I remember these eps! Hmmm..... I think I am going to go do some major butt-kicking!' I laughed evilly inside my head.
I followed as they went to the entrance and we read a notice.
"House of four dimensions," Kuwabara said.
"Once enter this do not utter the word 'hot'," Botan finished.
I grinned. 'This is going to be amusing,' I thought as the others entered before me. I went last, closing the door behind me.
We came to a room that had a single person standing in the back of the room, wearing Kurama's uniform. There were also several odd things sitting around the room. The man greeted us and Kurama identified him as Kaito. (SP?)
'Well, this is going to be fun,' I thought, a plan already coming to mind. I would wait until Hiei said the word "hot" and then leave.
Hiei's impatience got in the way and he tried to kill Kaito. His sword was broken on an invisible shield around Kaito. I snorted slightly. Hiei got up, growling slightly.
"No three letter word can rule my fate," Hiei said, angry, yet smirking. "Hot." A bright light gathered around Hiei and he was soon frozen, staring. His soul, a small, purple ball, went over to float by Kaito.
"All right. Now that you seem to have this under control, Kurama, I'll be leaving to go do something," I said, walking towards the door.
"Ah, ah." The door shut and the only person that had a key was a guy with hair that stuck up straight. I walked over to him, smiled at him, and then said, "If you do not give me the key, then I will have to take it from you."
"Didn't you hear Kaito? You can't attack me within this area," The guy said. (I forgot his name..... Ehhh... Sorry!)
"I did indeed hear him, but I want to test out this little theory that I have," I said, my eyes gleaming with threat. "Have either of you heard of Kila Kitsune?"
I heard Kaito gasp behind me. I turned to face him.
"I'm guessing that you have. I'm also guessing that you know that Kila is, supposedly, dead. Am I right so far?" I asked, looking at Kaito. He nodded and I continued. "Well, she didn't really die. She only died in body. Her soul moved to another body. When the young girl was born, she grew up in another world. She heard the legend of Kila when she was older, not realizing what it meant at the time. When she did realize what it meant, however, she was in the hotel on Hanging Neck Island. She realized that she could easily destroy the people that she hated, and break the laws in all the worlds. That girl... is me. And I'm guessing that I can break your rules, Kaito, and get away with it." I grinned. "So, I'll test that now."
I punched the guy in the face, just enough to keep him conscious, and then took the key from him. "See ya later," was all I said as I left the room. I handed the key back to the guy with the crazy hair and then walked up the stairs.
When I came to the top, I kept in the shadows and went around to the back. I stayed there for the whole entire time that Kurama beat Kaito at his own game, then they came up the stairs and Yusuke had to decide who the imposter was.
At that moment, I stepped out of the shadows and looked at them. I looked at Hiei, knew he was real, then went on with the other two. I looked over at Kuwabara and realized that something was off. I waited until Yusuke had asked all of his questions and their conversation time was almost up.
"Hey, Yusuke, do you mind if I make this decision for you?" I asked, looking at the person claiming to be Kuwabara.
"Are you sure of who it is?" Yusuke asked.
"I'm positive. Even Kila agrees with me there," I said, flashing Yusuke a smile over my shoulder.
Yusuke said, "Go ahead," and stood back to allow me to hit who I would.
I grinned like a lunatic and charged. I punched the guy across the face so hard that he went flying back into the wall behind him.
"How did you know which one Yana was? (Yana is the guy with the hair that Kila hit)" the last one asked. (Sorry. It's his name that I forgot. He's the one that was stepping on Yusuke's shadow to keep him in place. YAY! I now know that his name is Kedo!)
"Well, like I have explained to the other two, I house two souls in my body: One is the innocent, young lady. The other, however, is Kila Kitsune, a famous demon. Does the name ring any bells?" I asked, smirking. I saw the guy visibly pale. My smirk grew. "Now, it's time to see the mastermind behind all this, Genkai."
"How did you know?" Genkai asked, coming out of the shadows.
My eyes glinted. "YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE!!" I said dramatically, hiding behind Kurama. Botan giggled and Hiei rolled his eyes.
Genkai sighed. "I see that you have learned to use your powers on your own," she said, smiling very slightly. "That is a lot of improvement."
"Well, Kurama and Hiei helped me," I said, blushing. "And I didn't really need to be taught, according to Kurama. He said that I already knew how to use everything, I just needed to polish that up a bit."
"Less than that," Kurama said. "Getting back to business, why, Genkai?"
"To teach you a lesson," Genkai said simply.
"Huh?" Yusuke said. "YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT I ALMOST GOT KILLED TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON?!?!"
"If you did not have such good friends, then you might have been kept here, but not actually killed, even though you never knew that much," I said, smiling. "Kurama won you guys the first round, and then I won the second, and there you have it."
"So, you mean to tell me that my life would have been hanging in their hands?" Yusuke asked.
"It is a possibility. Though it would have taken less time if I had just gone on my own. Genkai," I said, turning to her. "I found that I can 'break the rules' of their territories. Why is that?"
"Because you have so much power, you yourself could use that to gain territory, therefore overriding their control because, if you two were to compete in the same area, you would win." Genkai looked at my lost face, sighed, and said, "In other words, you have so much power and control over that power that you can do whatever you want in just about any territory."
"Well," I said, glancing around and smiling, "I guess that having enough power to destroy three worlds can come in handy, right?"
Hiei sighed and shook his head, Kurama smiled, Botan looked slightly confused, and Yusuke grinned at me.
At that moment, Kuwabara came in the room in nothing but his red boxers.
Yusuke sniggered at the sight of him and said, "Well, I guess that answers the question: Boxers or briefs?" He then burst out laughing and I turned away, smiling slightly. Hie appeared next to me.
Koenma also called. "Genkai! I'd forgotten that I brought you back to life!" he exclaimed, making me laugh slightly.
I wasn't listening to the conversation at all until Koenma called for a second time and told us about the ranks of demons. Then, I became interested.
"What rank would you classify me as, Koenma?" I asked, looking at him over my shoulder.
"I need to talk to you about that." Koenma gave me a sharp look as I turned away with a sigh. "I'll see you in my office as soon as possible, all right?"
"Yeah, sure, whatever," I muttered, glaring at the wall in front of me. I heard Koenma sigh and turned to the door. "I'll see you later, Yusuke. I need to talk to you in private after I see Koenma." I then walked out the door and faintly saw Hiei smirk behind me. I walked over to the portal that Koenma had set up for me and walked through it.
I landed on my feet, a little sloppily, but I had only gone through portals two or three times before! I walked over to Koenma's desk and looked him in the eye.
"Yeah?" I said.
"Well, you are one of three demons that rank as Super-A class demons," Koenma said. "You are one. One is nearly dead and will pass his power on to another. The third is Ryuken. You are the only one that can battle him and hope to come out alive, Kila."
I stared at Koenma, disbelief written on my face. "Why am I so powerful, though?" I asked at length.
"We don't know. All we know is that three demons were gifted with powers that exceeded anything anyone had ever seen before. It was nearly impossible to kill them and there was only one flaw: Once they died, they had to pass on the power to one they thought worthy, unless one of the other Super-A class demons came to claim it. In your case, Kila thought that all the other demons were too greedy and wouldn't know how to use the power properly. They would destroy Ningenkai and Reikai and leave Makai all by its self. So, she chose a human to be the bearer of her power," Koenma said, looking at me. "Kila, you have to make decisions that you may regret now, but you will later find them to be the best thing you have ever done. I think you should go train with Genkai to reach new heights with your power. Go. NOW!!"
I was pretty much shoved out of his office and muttered curses under my breath. I walked away slowly, looking around at—what would be—a normal world, if it were not for the demonic energy that I sensed around the city.
I went to Yusuke's apartment and knocked on the door. Yusuke opened it and motioned for me to come inside. I shook my head.
"Yusuke, I need you to come with me for a little while, okay?" I said as I motioned for Yusuke to follow me. "I need to tell you something important."
"All right," Yusuke said, slipped on his shoes, and walked out the door with me. He followed me to Kurama's house and I led him up to my room. I sat on the bed and locked the door.
"Yusuke, what I am about to tell you is known only to me and Koenma, since he is the one that told me this. I don't want you to tell anyone else, all right?" I said, looking Yusuke in the eye.
"Why aren't you telling Hiei?" Yusuke asked.
"Because I don't know where he is right now. I honestly have no idea and I'm not about to go searching for him when I have two people that I trust enough to tell right here. Oh, by the way, Kurama, you can come in if you pick the lock," I said, looking at the door that Kurama hid behind. He chuckled and came in.
"I see you found me," Kurama said, amusement twinkling in his emerald eyes.
"Yeah. So, Koenma told me that I am one of three Super-A class demons. One is me; one is almost dead and ready to pass on his power; one is Ryuken. I'm the only person in the worlds that has a chance of going in there to fight Ryuken and coming out alive," I said, looking at the two boys in front of me. "The only thing is, if I die, then I have to pass my power on to someone else, unless Ryuken wants to steal my power for himself, which CANNOT happen at all costs. Got it?" I asked.
They both nodded and I smiled slightly. "Now, if you could be so kind as to get out my room so that I can go to bed..." I trailed off, watching the two boys scram outta my room.
I fell asleep soon later, unaware that Hiei had heard every word that I said.
'So, she is of the highest class of demon, eh? Now would be a perfect time to mark her; Well, when she wakes up, anyway,' Hiei thought, looking at my peaceful face.
He flitted off into the remains of the night.
