"'Ow the 'ell am I gonna find Urameshi now?" Jin asked his winds, flying about the Makai. For the moment, he wasn't keen on going to the Ningenkai, since he still didn't really know where to look. On the bright side, at least he knew that Touya would be safe. Urameshi was a good man, for all his tough guy act, and Jin knew this intrinsically.

Frustrated, Jin tried to reason out where Yusuke might be. However, such things as using his head for anything but a battering ram were foreign to him; that was Gama's and Touya's job. Lucky him, neither were handy. It finally occurred to him that Yusuke seemed Japanese, maybe he lived in Japan. But then Kurama dressed like he was Chinese... Oh well, both countries were about the same place on the globe, and Japan was smaller, he'd try there first.

"Good enuff fer me!" Jin shouted and began racing through the air to the border. Reaching it, he crossed to the Ningenkai, to begin a hopeless quest to check all of Japan, and then, if necessary, all of China and the world, to find Touya.

After a week searching Tokyo, Jin was thoroughly discouraged. No one with any worthwhile ki seemed to be around, but even though the strength of Yusuke's or one of the other's ki would have been a red flag in such a place, there was so much to wade through.

Any small hope he'd gained that he might find Touya from meeting the ferryman vanished. He would have to try and find other resources. If nothing else turned up, he would continue his search, but it was made painfully clear to him that if he didn't try to narrow down his range further, he would die long before he got close to Touya, unless, of course, he was insanely lucky. And while much of his life had been insanely lucky, Touya meant too much to Jin to trust to luck, and it seems he had run short of luck just recently anyhow.

He fled Tokyo, heading along the coastline to find somewhere he could be alone to think some more.

" 'Aight then, 'ho migh' know where Urameshi lives. Betta' question: 'ho do I know tha' migh' know where Urameshi lives?" Jin said aloud, having found a patch of rocky coast he could have to himself. He sat and thought a while, but no one came to mind, not that he knew. "'Aight, back ta the firs' question, I guess." Now a few people came to mind. Koenma, Botan, the Tournament board, that weird guy Sakyo, and his pet youkai Toguro. "Can I talk ta any a' them?"
