Told you I'd update fast from now one. It only took me 4 days to get it up, used to take me a month.
I didn't get any reviews but I'm still writing.
And I'm also sorry for changing Hiei's personality, but he so much cooler and more child-like. If you don't like, don't read.
Disclaimer: I do not own YYH or anything from Philip Pullman's book. The idea belongs to me and so do the characters you don't see in YYH or the Dark Materials (Philip Pullman's books)
Neh: Well anyway, on with the story. And please R&R!!!!!

Chapter 3: Boton finds out
"Yo, old hag!" Yusuke shouted as we walked into Genkai's temple.
We were all here, Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, Keiko, and Yukina and of course me. Well everyone wasn't here. Hiei had gone to Makai. Wish he could have stayed. Genkai had said if I got a little better with my katana Hiei might train me.
And yes, I can use a katana. I'm not as weak as people are led to believe especially since I'm not a human.
"What do you want dimwit?" Genkai asked as she turned the corner and walked up to use.
"We were wondering if we could stay here a while. We're kind of bored." Keiko said before Yusuke could say anything.
"Knock yourself out." Genkai said nodding toward the door to the living.
Just as I was about to go in, Genkai stopped me.
"Yes Genkai?" I asked, looking at her curiously.
"I've finally gotten you into the Teken Battlegrounds." She said smiling.
"Really!" I asked surprised.
"Yes, now come on." Genkai said leading me down the hall.
"Alethio, we're finally into the Teken Battlegrounds." I said excitedly to my daemon, Alethio.
Yes, I can actually see my daemon. All Mages can see their own daemons. And I'm a light mage, though my friends didn't know it.
He was in a gold-red mongoose and was wrapped around my neck.
"Do you think now that Hiei guy will train us?" Alethio asked, changing into a wolf as he jumped off my shoulders to trot beside me. He was a magnificent white gold in color, with light purple eyes.
"He might. I really hope so. You know, for some reason I feel connected to Hiei. I don't know why. Kinda weird, huh Genkai?" I asked.
I didn't wait for the answer, as I just saw that Alethio wasn't making pretending to gag like he usually did when I talked about Hiei.
I my eyebrows furrowed in thought and asked, "Why aren't you gagging or something? I thought you hated Hiei, and now you're asking if he'll train us!"
Alethio froze for a second but took hold of himself and kept walking.
"I do. I just don't like that guy, he's too merciless." Alethio said turning his head away.
"Alethio, you can't hide it from me. You actually like Hiei now, don't you?" I asked, though I knew the answer.
He liked Hiei now, and there was no going past that. He must have talked to Hiei's daemon, and since I couldn't help myself I had to ask.
"What does she look like?"
Other people couldn't see your daemons unless you wanted them to, but your daemons could see other daemons.
"W-who?" Alethio asked stuttering a bit.
"I know you met Hiei's daemon, so what does she look like." I asked, yet again.
Alethio let out a growl and said, "She was in Wolf form."
"What did she look like?" I asked.
I wonder if Hiei's daemon is cute and fuzzy like Yusuke's spirit beast. Now that would be funny.
"She...she had silver and black fur." Alethio said quickly.
Silver and black fur!
I couldn't help but gasp.
"B-but only Darkness Mages can have daemons with black and silver fur." I said shocked, rooted to my spot.
An involuntary shiver went down my spine as I closed my eyes. I had been so close to a darkness mage and I never even known it. A Darkness Mage! I could have practically touched him; one actually looked at me. A darkness mage was so close. Another shiver went down my spine as I held my hand over my fast-beating heart.
You must be wondering why I getting so worked up over Hiei being a Darkness Mage.
Well let me start by saying Light Mages can only be females while Darkness Mages can only be males. So to have children Light Mages and Darkness Mages mate.
Light Mages can't really even try to resist Darkness Mages, they're...just so...perfect to us.
Now to other types of mages, it wouldn't be that way. Water Mages would be more connected to Fire or Ice, and would turn their head in disgust at the mention of ever mating with a Darkness Mage.
Maybe that's why I feel drawn to him, I thought. He is good-looking. My thought went to Hiei for what seemed like eternity, until I finally came to my senses.
THIS IS HIEI WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, I shouted in my mind. I almost went off the deep end.
I was breathing quite heavily on the outside, and I saw Alethio had felt the same sensations as I. Along with that I was also blushing.
I glanced to the right as I heard chuckling, and saw Genkai with her eyes closed and hand to her mouth.
I blushed a bright red.
Being caught thinking of a Darkness Mage is not something I want people to know, even if I can trust Genkai.
"Boton, how old are you?" Genkai asked.
"16." I replied, still breathing quite heavily.
I closed my eyes as those sensations swept through my body yet again and I shivered visibly, just as Alethio.
Genkai chuckled more at me and muttered something that sounded like 2 more years.
I tilted my head in thought.
2 years, for what?
"Let's get your mind off Hiei, shall we?" Genkai said walking inside.
I blushed again.
She had even known I was thinking of Hiei.
This is soooo not good.
I hope this is just a phase or something, since he is the first darkness mage I saw, so of course I reacted that way. I don't really like him. Good.
"Now, Boton, this is the portal that will take you to the Teken Battlegrounds. I won't be able to go with you, but you'll meet Koto on the other side." Genkai said.
Inside was a black-gold swirling portal. A lot different then Spirit World's, but oddly soothing at the same time.
I was like the portal was calling out to me and I couldn't help but close my mind and let the pulse waves from the portal cover me.
The brought my mind back to the sensations I felt when I thought of Hiei, but this time they were less intense and made me fell a bit warm. I felt a small jolt in my mind as Alethio walked trough.
Mages' daemons can go as far away from their masters as possible without feeling pain while daemons of demons and humans can't.
"See ya later, Genkai." I said like I was in a trance. I then walked through the portal.
Meanwhile"I wonder if they would be mad if I called grandmother." Gem thought aloud to herself.
She was walking down the street with her bestest friend in the whole wide world and sometimes greatest enemy, Sueng Mina.
She was actually my sister/
Sueng Mina had a small build with a pretty face. Some say she was a goddess, which wasn't very far off. She had kind blue eyes, not light blue, but regular blue. Her ankle-length hair was a dark navy blue with a silver zigzag streak going down the middle, and was always in a high ponytail. Whenever you saw her, she would be wearing a navy blue or silver kimono.
"I'm sure they would, but...call her anyway. They've ruined our lives many a time, let's ruin theirs." Sueng Mina said a smirk appearing on her delicate face.
"That's childish...but who cares." Gem said shrugging, a smile on her lips.
"YEAH! We're going to make your life a living hell H..." Sueng Mina started to shout but she saw people staring at her, She looked around with her fist still in the air. She brought it down in front of her face, while is closed her eyes in anger.
"MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!!" She shouted causing most of the people on the street to go deaf.
Gem was unaffected by it, having her Sueng shout even louder before.
"Now...hurry up and call them." Sueng Mina said excitedly.
It's a wonder we aren't teenagers, we sure to act like that, Gem thought as she took a silver cell phone out of her pocket.
Somewhere else
Hiei POV
"Hiei?" Ryu asked as Raven and I played Arctic Thunder in the Battle mode. I was unfortunately losing by one hit.
"Yeah?" I asked as I swerved out of the way to avoid a Snow Bomb.
"I was wondering, what if your spirit detective friends-"Ryu started but I didn't let him finish.
"Acquaintances." I cut in.
"Acquaintances?! Yeah, right." Raven said as he paused the game.
I looked confusedly at him, and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Please, you think they're your friends and there is no denying it. Sejal used to say the same thing about Larry and now they're best friends for crying out loud." Raven said throwing up his hands.
"So...she's...she's Sejal. The psychopath, the one that's scared of golden monkeys, whose mind was corrupted by the stupid boys in her school, and the one who loves confusing people! You cannot compare me to her. She's an idiot." I shouted at Raven.
She's also the one who can't make up her mind whom she likes. Love is for the weak of mind, yep. And of course Sejal is of the weak of mind. Actually she has no mind at all.
I couldn't help but let out a smirk.
"But you're afraid of golden monkeys, and you're a psychopath." Ryu pointed out, bringing me out of my mind. He must have not seen my smirk.
"I'm not afraid of Golden Monkeys, I just get this incredible urge to kill one when I see one. And WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M A PSYCHOPATH!" I shouted glaring at Ryu and Raven. "I AM NOT A PSYCHOPATH!"
Everyone always thinks I psychopath. Just because I like to kill people doesn't make me a psychopath. Or...does it? Hmm...
"Suuuuure." Ryu and Raven both said sarcastically.
"Che." I said, turning his head and crossing his arms.
"You never answered my question." Ryu said.
"What was the question again?" I asked sheepishly, rubbing the back of my neck.
Both Ryu and Raven got major sweat-drops on their heads.
I laughed nervously, still rubbing the back of my head.
"And I thought I was the most stupidest of this threesome." Raven said.
"WHAT! I can forget things, too." I said pouting, glaring lightly at them.
After a while we all burst up laughing at the stupid face I was making.
After we were finished Raven asked, "What would happen if your spirit detective acquaintances came over?"
"Hmm..." I put my finger to my chin and looked up upwards. "I'd most likely shout at you for jinxing me then proceed to strangle you. Then I would try wiping their memory's clean, failing miserably because I keep forgetting the spell for it. So then after I'm calmed down and stop acting like an idiot with you guys I would explain it to them. Oh! I forgot one little thing. After I strangled you I would most likely strangle the person who invited them over, namely Sueng Mina."
Ryu was laughing nervously, knowing what happens when I get mad and that when I strangle him he'll be feeling that for a while.
Raven was smirking and I knew mentally that he was laughing at Ryu for bringing that up.
"Wanna go spar?" I asked.
Playing games was getting old anyway.
"Yeah I guess." Ryu said stretching, "I was getting bored watching you guys play."
"Free-for-all?" Raven asked smirking at us.
"What else." I said, shrugging as both Ryu and me smirked.
