Yusuke stood with his arms crossed. Angrily he tapped his foot with a raised eyebrow. Was that the tenth or twentieth time that Koenma had gone through that stack of paper? He inwardly groaned as Koenma started to search through the papers yet again.

'Just don't look into their eyes. Just keep busy.' Koenma flipped through a book for the umpteenth time. Every now and then he would stop and point to a word. As long as he kept busy maybe, just maybe, the four angry boys would not pulverize him.

Yusuke shifted his glance from Koenma to the others. Soon after Kanna had been grabbed he and Kurama had gotten Kuwabara and Hiei. Then they had ran over to Koenma's. Now they were waiting for some supposedly important information.

Hiei stood at the back of the room leaning against a corner. He leaned against the blue tiled wall with his eyes closed. With his jagan he could tell that something was going to happen really soon. Heck the energies flared with dangerous red. And if something was to happen he would not be witness to it.

Kuwabara stood next to his seething friend. He still could not believe that Kanna was really gone. 'And to think that before this my biggest concern was getting Yukina to come to the movies with me. Funny how dramatically life can change.'

Perhaps the most deadly looking one was Kurama. He leaned against the tiled wall directly behind Koenma. His emerald eyes were tiny slits. The one thing he hated most was to be deceived. Kurama hated it worse then liver and onions, worse then brussle sprouts. Heck he hated it even worse then being trapped in a room alone with Karasu. And right now he knew that they were being deceived. Koenma was not even looking at most of the papers. His eyes traveled from the paper to a pen, paperweight, then to the rubber stamp and then back to the paper. How much longer was he really planning on deceiving them?

Finally in frustration, Kurama swiftly grabbed the back of Koenma's red and purple robes and threw him against the wall. Koenma's head connected with the wall and made a sickening cracking sound. The tiny ruler saw white stars. Gently he raised a hand and touched the growing goose egg on the back of his head. 'Ow,' that had really hurt him.

"We have been patient long enough. Now talk!" Koenma could almost swear that the green orbs turned to a bright gold as he spoke.

"W-w-well see I have no idea where she is I swear!" Koenma wished silently for one of his ogres. Maybe it was a bad idea for him to have chased them out earlier today.

The sound of smashing stone forced Koenma to tear his eyes away from Kurama. Three inches from his head was a crater. And in the middle of the crater was Yusuke's fist. A thin stream of blood oozed from one of his fingers. Koenma's pacifier fell from his surprised mouth. 'No way, more strength then when he had beaten Togoro.'

"Maybe now you remember?" Yusuke's eyes almost seemed to glow red.

Nodding ferociously Koenma stared at the fist. Could he not feel that cut on his finger or was he really so far gone that there was no feeling of pain. "You just boggled my memory but I still cannot tell you anything yet." Koenma closed his eyes. This was going to become much harder soon. "Just two people to save the world. Just two."

Yusuke leaned closer to make sure he had heard correctly. His eyes widened as it was confirmed. There were two victims. If Kanna was one then who was two. Everyone had someone that could be next. Yusuke glared he had already lost one person that he cared for he would not lose another.

Shaking slightly Yusuke grabbed the terrified ruler from the relentless grip of Kurama's. If anyone was going to pound him it would be Yusuke. Yusuke took a few deep cleansing breaths as he loosened his grip on Koenma.

Thinking that he was safe Koenma started to grin slightly. As his toes touched the floor his heart gave off a few joyous beats. Suddenly he felt himself flying, flying head first into the couch in the center of the room.

"Whose number two?" Yusuke's glowed with growing anger.

Koenma just closed his eyes and shook his head.

Shiori moaned slightly as she set the laundry basket down. Between the heat and her splitting headache she was not a happy camper. How could she ever get everything done and get ready for her date tonight? Today was the one day that Shiori wished for her precious to come nagging about helping her somehow. But unfortunately for her he could not be found.

As the doorbell rang Shiori dramatically grabbed her head and moaned. God she would have to remember later to smash that annoying bell.

The impatient man rang the bell five more. 'Where was the woman? Everything depends on her. If she's gone then...' No he could not think like that. His thin, long finger reached out for the doorbell.

Just as his finger felt the warm metal of the bell the door flew open. All the while Shiori swore silently to break the fingers that dared to touch that button. Quickly she put on a fake smile. "Kon'nichiwa, may I help you?"

For the first time Shiori saw the man that stood before her. She felt a light blush come across her face. If only she were twenty again. 'Hehe hentai thoughts' Shiori thought as she stared at the man before her. He was the type of man that she always had gone for. Tall, dark and handsome. Well everything but the fox ears. Tilting her head slightly to the side Shiori stared at the ears. Was it really that close to Halloween again? Silently she laughed while shaking her head slightly.

At least that was until the man grabbed her arm and tried to pull her out. Shiori fought back. Screaming she grabbed a vase and let it drop on his head. The man muttered a curse as he brought a swift hand to the back of her head. 'Damn woman' he mentally cursed while lifting the unconscious woman. That stupid vast had really hurt.

Kanna stared at the man that stood in front of her. Though she looked calm and collected on the outside, inside was a thunderstorm of emotions. But no matter what Kanna knew that she had to remain strong and uncaring to the world. For if she did not Kanna would never be safe. To keep her mother, her precious mother, Kanna would have to keep her feelings at bay.

The large man still hid in the shadows. He stared at the frail girl defiantly. "So do you really think that your friends are going to come for you?" A crooked smile came across his dark face. "They are never going to come for you. Right now they are rejoicing that you are gone. No longer do they have to spend every last second watching over you."

The man lowered himself to her level a little more. Putting a finger to his hidden chin he deep voice continued, "Now what were their names? Oh yes, Yuki and Robyn. I believe that they are celebrating the most. No longer is a frail, little, pathetic girl the most important thing in their life."

A tear fell as Kanna desperately tried to keep out those hurtful words. Such venom laced words they were. That was the one thing that she had always feared most. Somewhere deep in her heart Kanna always feared that her friends would tire of her. Now her fears were realized.

Putting tiny hands up to her ears Kanna tried to keep them from getting to her. But they just would not stop. And every sentence just got meaner- more personal. Closer to her heart- her home.

"Do you think that you mother is sad? Ever since your brothers death you stopped being a good daughter."

Gasping Kanna shut her eyes. How dare he mention him! How dare he even think of speaking of his death?

The large man smiled he knew he was getting to her. Soon her will would be broken and ready for him. Not much longer. "I can see it right now. Your tiny dog being sold, your mother and friends celebrating that you are long gone."

Kanna's head lowered a little before she picked it up again. 'Don't show emotion.' Kanna kept her tiny face solid as stone. In her head all she could here was her brother's words to her. 'It's better to be dead and free then to be alive and a slave.'

Smirking he continued, "And do you know what's even worse then that? Your brother's death was useless. You're still weak and vulnerable. Just think if it had not been for you your brother would still be alive. How sad to be you." Turning he left Kanna to ponder those words.

Kanna's heart sank as she heard the metal door slam. Why, why did he have to bring up her brother? Glaring at the door Kanna vowed death. She would not show any mercy.

Suddenly she stopped and glanced down at her feet. But what good would revenge do. After all her family and friends did not want her around anymore. Where would she go? At least here she had a roof over her head.

Kanna gently rested her head on her knees while tenderly touching the goose egg on the back of her head. Was it true? Was her brother's death really useless? Or was it what he really wanted, after all he was free now.

Koenma went from the couch to the corner of the room. How he really really wished for one of his ogres now. Slowly he backed farther into the corner. Four sets of eyes glared at him with growing anger. The slip of a second victim had snapped the last strands of patience. Everyone here had someone who could be the next victim.

No matter what Koenma knew that his silence was the world's savior. As the boys closed the gap he silently prayed for a miracle.

The gods must have been in a different mood for they decided to answer Koenma's prayers by making Yusuke a prime target. Just as Koenma finished saying about how he would build a thousand churches with his own two hands the large red doors swung open.

"Drat," was all the tiny ruler could say. Now he was going to have to build a thousand churches.

A fuming Yuki stood at the doorway her hands planted on her hips. "Yusuke Urimeshi get your butt over here right now!!" The walls trembled from Yuki's voice.

Yusuke looked over and yelped. He knew that he was in for it now. Looking into her eyes Yusuke had a feeling that mercy was something that he would not get to see. With a nervous chuckle Yusuke slowly backed away from the demi-ruler. "Hey Yuki. Oh hey Robyn, how was America? Please be gentle."

Yuki's only response was an unwavering steady stride to the Spirit Detective.
