Disclaimer: I do not own YYH. I do, however own the black bladed katana and Hinoki. No stealing or I will hang you by your toenails over a bear trap! I will sue you for everything you are worth, throw you in a cell full of soul-sucking demons, shut the cell door, and watch your pitiful sorrow and screams of pain while I cackle evilly. Kukukukukukuku! Mwahahahahahahahahahaha! Heh heh heh heh heh.

Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, and Hiei were called to koenma's palace for an urgent meeting. "Yeah? So what's with this "special" meeting you called us for?" Yusuke demanded. "Quiet Yusuke, I'm getting to it." Koenma said patiently, clearing his throat, "Now then, gentlemen. I'm sure you are curious as to why I called you all her, so I'll get to the point. I have a special assignment for you. I assigned one of my other spirit detectives to exterminate a threat; they wanted to destroy my palace. She was successful, but unfortunately, she was captured and put up for ransom. We need you to retrieve her and get her back. She is very important to m-I mean, the detective business." "Well, what are we waiting for!? Lets go!" Kuwabara shouted. "Don't be so quick to act, fool. We need to know the location and condition of this girl." Hiei informed him. "We will also be requiring this girls appearance and her name." Kurama added. "Hey! You never told me there were OTHER spirit detectives!" Yusuke said angrily. "Yes.well..eh-hem.look closely at the screen there..that's where Hinoki is being confined." Koenma said, pointing to a screen that was now lowering from the ceiling. The screen flickered on and an old castle left in shambles appeared on the screen. The screen flashed to a dungeon cell. An auburn haired girl with dirty, dark, ragged clothing was chained to the wall. Her hair was grimy and greasy. It shadowed the upper half of her face. She showed no signs of emotions at all. Rats sniffed at her feet as she sat there, motionless, her arms chained above her head.
As the boys stared at the screen, Botan piped up. "This was last recorded when she was updating her mission status with us." A tape player was set on Koenma's desk. Botan pushed the play button. A cool, confident voice started speaking, "This is Hinoki Koyotua. I've achieved my mission. I'm on my way back. Those terrorist demons wouldn't give up easily, thus they went down hard. I'll be arriving soon." Botan's sweet and carefree tuned voice came through, "Affirmative, Hinoki. We'll be awaiting your arrival." Hinoki's cool voice started chuckling, "No sweat, Botan. I got this mission hands down. It was a waist of time. How many times must I tell Koenma to give me harder opponents? I don't like dealing with low-levels, they're a waist of time. I-AAAAAAAAARRRRGH! Dammit!" Botan's voice became worried, "Hinoki? Are you alright? Hinoki? Hinoki!" A man's powerful voice boomed through the tape, "What's the rush, Babe? Stay awhile." Hinoki's voice sounded angry, "You son-of-a-bitch! You shall fall for what have done. Hn, are you ready?" The man sounded amused, "Now that's how I like 'em. Real sassy." The sound of katana's clashing sounded through the tape for five whole minutes. Then the sound of a body falling. "Damn you bitch. Look what you did to me! Huh? Out cold, eh? Lets see, you're Koenma's little girl, so perhaps he will pay a handsome reward for you. Hm? What's this? A receiver? You won't be needing this anymore where you're going." The man boomed. The transmission ended there. Koenma wheeled around in his chair to face Yusuke, "Now then, Yusuke, do you see the importance of this mission? Unfortunately we have such a small budget we can only send two people through the portal." Koenma said regretfully. "Are you serious!? What was the point of calling us all here, then!?" Yusuke demanded. Koenma paid little attention to what Yusuke had said. "I think it is right if you all draw straws." Koenma said, putting a hand full of straws out in front of them. They all drew straws at the same time, in the end, it was Hiei and Kurama who had received the mission. "All right Hiei.Kurama..Go now, and bring Hinoki back safely." Koenma ordered.
Kurama and Hiei traveled to the castle together, "Hiei, do you know where that castle is located?" Kurama asked Hiei. "I have seen it." was Hiei's response. A handful of demons crossed their path, stopping them abruptly in their tracks. "It appears we have company." Kurama stated. "You two appear to be lost, may we be of some assistance?" Said one of the demons. "Hn. We are in no need of your assistance." Hiei said coolly. " That's too bad. We were sent here.now we must fulfill our assignment." Another crowed. With those words, all twelve demons attacked the two opposing youkai. Kurama pulled a rose from his long, red hair. The red rose shed it's petals and scattered them in the air. Kurama held the rose stem above his head and lashed it out in front of him. The rose stem extended into a green, rose-thorned whip. "Rosewhip!" Kurama shouted as he lashed the whip at three demons whom had dared to attack him.
Hiei drew his Katana and slashed at the demons as he ran through the crowd. They fell to the ground in bloody, squirming chunks. "It appears that whomever captured Hinoki, knows we are coming." Kurama stated. "So it appears." Hiei repeated, sheathing his katana. "We should hurry, there may be more coming." Kurama pointed out. With those last words, they ran in the direction of which the castle was.
