Kara here, writing again. It's my turn anyway. Now that I realize it, I'm not exactly portrayed very well in the story. I'll try to make myself a little more interesting, though, so, here I go. I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho and probably never will. Unfortunately.

How to Be Psychic Chapter Four

"So who will go first?" asked Hiei.

"I said I would, but if anyone else wants to go, go ahead!" Said Ophelia.

"I can go instead." Said Kara.

"Okay!" replied Ophelia, eagerly running to join Casie and give Kara a 'good luck' pat on the back, which truthfully wasn't very helpful.

"Just get it over with, this will help me in the future." Mumbled Kara to herself.

Professor Hiei began giving instructions. "Fight with whatever weapon you want. First one off the platform loses."

"What pla- oh..." said Kara, noticing that they were suddenly standing on a square white platform about three feet high.

"3...."

"Uh, okay." Said Kara with a bit of nervousness on her face.

"2..."

"GO KARA!" chanted Casie, "If she can't do it, maybe I can!"

"1."

"Gee, thanks, Casie." Sighed Kara. She then lunged with a long, blue lance (like in the middle ages, when they jousted). Hiei jumped forward and sliced the lance a few inches away from Kara's hands. Kara then let go of the lance, letting the momentum carry the hilt to make contact with Hiei's head. He quickly dodged and ran behind Kara. She had just turned around when Hiei pointed the sword at Kara's face.

"Hn, amateurs." Smirked Hiei.

"Excuse me?" retorted Kara, suddenly having a large blue-ish purple shield in her hand, blocking Hiei's sword. Hiei stepped back and seemingly waited for Kara's next attack.

"What are you waiting for?" said Hiei.

"Oh my gosh!" yelled Casie, making Kara jump from her trance of concentration, "you can see The Temple!"

At this Kara turned a pale pink as a temple on the left side of her forehead was throbbing.

"Are you just going to stand there and flunk? You will not pass unless you defeat me!" Yelled Hiei, his voice filled with anger and annoyance.

Kara then created a purple crossbow and aimed it at the professor. It looked normal enough except if you looked closely, where on the arrow was a small engine to increase the speed. Seeing this, Hiei began making himself a moving target. Kara then made another device appear on the arrow, took aim, and let go.

The arrow zoomed towards Hiei with incredible speed enough to match his own. He dodged and turned to Kara.

"If that was your best shot, that was pathetic."

"Who said it was my best shot?" said Kara, blinking innocently. Hiei then turned around as he heard a whooshing sound and dodged the arrow again.

"Seeking arrows. No doubt a desperate move." He then sliced the arrow cleanly in half, leaving a surprised and confused expression on the three girls' faces until Hiei bolted towards Kara, sword drawn. Instinctively Kara jumped back with the shield up but a little of her hair was sliced in the process, and stupidly, she had jumped off the platform.

"Oh... shoot, shoot, shoot!!! I'm so stupid!!" yelled Kara as she fell on the sand.

"Don't beat yourself up, Kara." Said Ophelia as and Casie ran over.

"It's just a grade. Besides, you did good!" Casie congratulated. "And If needed I can fix you hair!"

"Thanks." Mumbled Kara, obviously showing defeat on her face.

"Next student." Said Hiei, not looking the least bit tired, whereas Kara was out of breath and disheveled.

"I'll try now." Said Ophelia, clambering up on the platform.

"Good luck." Said Kara, walking back with Casie.

"Okay, so when do we start?" asked Ophelia.

"Now." Said Hiei. He then began to attack Ophelia with a series of blows, but fortunately Ophelia was moving with light itself. She moved fast enough to land a punch on Hiei's cheek.

"GO OPHELIA!" yelled Casie and Kara.

"Way to get him!" added Kara, noticing a lock of hair was shorter than the others.

"GO FOR THE NOSE!" yelled another voice.

At this everyone except Hiei and Ophelia (who were now going fist to fist) to look at the new person. A girl about the age of 7 with curly blond hair was watching the battle with extreme interest.

"Um, shouldn't she be somewhere else?" said Kara to Casie.

"I don't know."

Suddenly Kurama ran in towards the girl.

"Joni! You should not get out of class like that. You must never misuse your power! Now please go back to class."

"Yes, Kurama-sensei." Said the girl, poofing into silver dust that faded away.

"HI KURAMA!" yelled Ophelia. Suddenly the light attack Ophelia was concentrating on went out of control and knocked both opponents off the platform.

"And it is... a TIE!!!!" yelled Kara.

Kara was directing this to Hiei and Ophelia, but Ophelia had already ran over to Kurama.

"RING!!"

"If I am correct, you three will be with me." Said Kurama as Casie and Kara ran up.

"We'll walk with you!" said Ophelia happily.

"Alright, I need to speak with you three in private. Do not mention this to anyone nor talk about it." Said Kurama as he opened the door to his classroom.

Inside was Botan, Yusuke, Hiei, and Kuwabara. Botan had her briefcase with her again.

"Botan, take it out again, but be careful this time." Said Yusuke, "Kuwabara, make a barrier in this room. Last time over half the students sensed it."

"Right." Grunted Kuwabara.

"Here goes." Added Botan.

There was a great draft of air all about the room and a bright light. The spirit ball seemed to be glowing much brighter than before.

"Casie, will you please touch the orb?" asked Kurama in a sort of ordering tone.

"Why? It look... a little um..dangeruous..."

"Just do it please!" Botan begged.

Casie slowly walked up to it, slightly flinching at such an enormous amount of energy so close, and touched it with one finger. She shuddered and stared into space for a moment.

Then she fell to her knees and started gasping.

"What did you see?" asked Botan.

"I saw, this person. They had a dark red cape or something with four triangles making a box in the middle on the hood. They said 'Let this be a warning, detectives. Do not stop me if you favor your lives. The new psychics will not make a difference either. Make your decision by November 19.'"

"Did you see anything else?" asked Ophelia.

"Was there anything in the background, some clue?" added Kara.

"Well, the background was all plain white and it was kind of foggy at the edges."

"Wait," said Kara, "How do they know we're helping them?"

"Umm..." she began to ponder about the fact. "I don't know, hmm..." Ophelia said deep in thought.

"Maybe there is some way to track the person down through his energy ball, like his finger print." Said Kurama, "Plus, it's from someone human, because it is not demonic energy."

Botan then rummaged though a compartment in her briefcase and pulled out a dull silver box the size of a PS2 with a graph formatted scanner and a bunch of buttons.

"This," began Botan, "is a ki tracker. It's not very powerful, though, it can only track about 20 miles."

"And you didn't show us this before, why?" asked Yusuke.

"Eh heh, I forgot." Said Botan with a foolish smile.

She then placed the ball onto the scanner. A small 'beep' was heard and then a sudden high pitched wail was heard from the object. Everyone covered their ears.

"Whoever it is is 5 miles from here!" yelled Botan over the siren.

"Let's get going then!" yelled Kuwabara.

The group ran out of the room and out of the school, ordering a few of the other teachers to convince the students that this was a fire drill. As the students made their way to the field at one side of the school, the team made their way to the other where the exit was. Botan was now fiddling a bit more with the tracker and then directing them through the streets. They eventually stopped at a retirement home.

"This is it." Stated Botan.

"I don't feel anything from here." Said Kuwabara.

"Well, we'll just have to go in and look around anyway," said Ophelia.

To be Continued

Was the retirement home meant to throw them off the scent? Or is it the real deal? Who is this person that can leave such a powerful ball of energy as a message? Find out next time on How to be a Psychic!!!
