Passing the Torch Ch 2: Chaotic House Guests and Confusing Mission Details
They finished out that week of school, spending as much time with their other friends as they could. It was Friday night and they were all over at Kurama's for their weekly get together. They were sitting in the living room talking when they heard the doorbell ring. Kurama got the door and when he came back he was followed by 4 men with suitcases. When they entered the living room Yusuke immediately got up to greet them.
"Hey you guys."
"Urameshi! 'Ow ya doin' mate?" One man asked. He was tall, Built, and reeked for alcohol.
"Fine. You haven't changed much. Same ol' drunk you were the last time I saw you."
"You haven't changed much either." Another one said. This one had weird red hair and an Irish accent.
"Jin! How's life been treating ya?"
"Great! The wind in this area's incredible! I could fly around all day in these conditions. My ears are even pointy."
Yusuke laughed.
"I love what you've done with the garden Kurama." The blue hair man said.
Kurama laughed at this comment. "Thank you Touya."
"Still playing with your toys Rinku?" Kuwabara asked the remaining man.
"They beat you didn't they?" He replied. This guy was tall, skinny, and he wore a baseball cap.
"You're the only one who's changed, in looks anyway."
"Little bugger shot up like a weed."
"Dad, who are the people?" Yasuo asked.
"these are the guys you and Nami will be staying with at the tournament. Chu, Jin,Touya and Rinku fought us when we were in the tournament. They will be helping us train you."
"Aren't there supposed to be 6 members on a team?" Tami asked.
"Yes. The other two are shopping. They uh, stole my wallet." Touya said.
Just then the doorbell rang.
"Speak of the devil." Jin said in a serious tone.
When Kurama returned from getting the door he was followed by 2 teenage girls. They had their hands full of bags. They introduced themselves as Kara and Yuki. Yuki threw a wallet at Touya.
"Thanks Daddy! Now I have some decent clothes to fight in."
Touya rolled his eyes. "Teenagers."
Kara went over and leaned on Jin. "So what we doin' here pops?" She didn't have an accent but she talked just as fast as Jin.
"We will be staying with Urameshi until the tournament. Yasuo and Nami over there will be staying with us during the fights. They are working undercover for Koenma." Jin said filling his daughter in on the previously talked about events.
"Where will we be?" Yuki asked.
Kurama spoke up. "You and your father will be staying here. Rinku and Chu will be with Kuwabara."
"Ok so how are we supposed to train if we are all spread out like this?" Leiko asked, a bit annoyed with having to share her room. She didn't like sharing. It was bad enough she had to shear her birthday with her brother.
"We will all meet here everyday for school and training. Kurama's house has a big back yard." Yusuke answered.
"Yes, just don't trample the roses." Kurama said.
They all laughed at that except for Hiei who gave his usual "Hn.".
The first night was interesting to say the least. At Yusuke's house, Leiko got mad at Yasuo for borrowing a pair of her boxers (she's a tomboy) so she blew up his pillow with her spirit gun. Yasuo blamed it on PMS and almost got shot himself. They called a truce after no one in the house had pillows. They borrowed pillows from the Kuwabara house and finally settled down.
"Do you and Yasuo always fight like that?" Kara asked Leiko as she climbed into her futon.
"Most of the time, but deep down we really love each other." She replied with a smile.
"Me and Yuki fight like that too sometimes. We are together most of the time. Too much togetherness can be a bad thing."
"You can say that again."
They both laughed.
At Kazuma's house things were equally interesting. Chu was drunk like normal and kept falling into things. Yasuo had snuck over to be with Nami and taro caught them making out on Nami's bed. Yasuo said he came over for some pillows. Taro threw a bag of them at him and told him to go home. (He's very protective of Nami.) After Chu passed out things calmed down a bit.
At Kurama's place things were ok until Rei and Kane started arguing over what to watch on TV. The fight was quickly settled when Rei started to get mad. Her hair was flying all over the place and she had turned into her demon form. Kane gladly gave her the remote after that. Yuki accidentally froze the room when she saw her favorite guy on the TV. After that they decided to go to bed.
Haku was spying on Rei from the tree between their houses as he did every night. He could sit in that tree and stare at her for hours. Often times he fell asleep in the tree. His sister would wake him up at 1:00 when she got up to go to the bathroom. At that time she would check on Kane to make sure he was sleeping soundly. They had done this since they were 10. It was almost a ritual.
Training was harsh and so was the schooling. It was the first time any of them had been glad to see an early bedtime. Sunday they split up to work on certain powers. Taro and Nami worked with Touya to strengthen their Ice powers. Leiko and Yasuo worked with Chu to learn better control of their spirit energy and learn things their dad didn't know. Rei and Kane worked with Rinku on manipulation. He used his Serpent Yo-Yos and they used their plants. Jin worked with Haku and Tami perfecting their defense. They worked like this for a month, training all together twice a week. At the end of that month, Koenma called a meeting at Genkai's shrine.
"Let me first say, I'm impressed with the training you have been doing." Koenma started.
"How'd you know about our training?" Tami asked.
"I can see all from my castle. I see everything that you do 24/7." He replied.
"You pervert! You mean you can see us taking showers?" She yelled, obviously aggravated.
"I could, but I'm not evil. I only spy on you when I have a good reason. I did the same thing when your parents were growing up."
"Hold on just a minute." Yusuke interrupted. "You mean you were watching me make a fool of myself?"
"Yes. In fact, I still have the video of the night you spent in the forest while rescuing Yukina. If I remember correctly, Yusuke was having a dream. In it, he was getting smacked around by Keiko. The only reason I know this is half the night he was telling Keiko to hit him then yelling about it."
"Yes. It was very hard to sleep with all that noise." Hiei added.
"What, you were there too?" Yusuke asked puzzled.
"Of course you fool. I was sleeping in the tree above you three."
"Anyway, back to the matter at hand. I need you to listen closely. You will be up against some of the toughest demons you have ever seen. You will need to train harder than ever before. This means harnessing new techniques. I have given you all a special ability. The adults know what they are and will explain them later. My time here is short. I'm ultra busy. Nami, Yasuo, I will give you the information we have on your case now. A demon has been collecting pieces of an ancient artifact. The artifact is ultra powerful. There are 5 pieces to it. Once it is put together, it will grant immortality to the one who completes it. Along with immortality it grants immense spiritual power. The demon already has 3 pieces. Another piece is in the hands of a female kitsune/wolf demon. Thankfully, that piece is being kept from evil. Unfortunately, our criminal has found out where the 4th piece is being kept. The kitsune/wolf demon will be fighting in the tournament. Your job will be to retrieve the first 3 pieces and protect the forth."
"You said there were 5 pieces. Where's the 5th one?"
"We are unsure of its whereabouts at this moment."
There was a long pause, then a gasp.
"I know where it is!" Kurama said.
A/N: well there's Ch 2…. Where is the 5th piece? You'll have to read to find out… sry I had to do it… I had to end somewhere…. and it just seemed like a good place… well let me know what you think
