Hikuya: Okay everyone! It's time for me to introduce one of my new characters that I've been working on for awhile. There are going to be a few people from Shaman King and Harry Potter in this, just so's ya know.
Yusuke: Then what do we have to do with anything?
Hikuya: You'll see!!
Kurama: This could be a bad thing.
Hikuya: Silence!! Kazuma, please do the disclaimer.
Kuwabara: OKAY!!!! This authoress doesn't own any of the corporate symbols in this, just her own character(s)! Did I do a good job?
Hikuya: You did a wonderful job Kazuma! On with my story.
Chapter 1 – Meeting Wind
It was a day like any other in Tokyo Japan. The sakura blossoms were just starting to fall, as were the leaves on the trees, and fall had officially begun! Our story starts with the brave defenders of Ningenkai, the Rekai Tantei!!! Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei all had to meet in the park, where Botan was supposed to meet them at noon. (Yes those who go to school are skipping) That point in time, however, had been 45 minutes ago.
"Where the heck is Botan?!? For ONCE I was on time, and SHE'S the one who's late!" An irate Yusuke shouted, getting many strange looks from nearby civilians.
"Yusuke, getting angry will get you no where. She may have gotten tied up in Rekai." Kurama made a bold attempt at calming Yusuke down. Yusuke just settled for grumbling angrily under his breath. A little while later, our favorite blue haired ferry girl arrived.
"I'm sooo sorry!! Koenma had this one soul that I had to run and get, since no one was available."
"Whatever, just tell us what the case is so we can get it over with"
Botan simply frowned at his comment "Impatient as always, aren't you Yusuke? And this case is very delicate. It's not to be rushed! And I don't have all the information myself to give you, but-"
"What do you mean, you don't have all the information?!? How are we supposed to do the case without any info?" Yusuke yelled at poor Botan.
"Calm down, Urameshi! Yelling won't help us at all, so listen for once you doofus!!" Kuwabara yelled at his team mate. Botan cleared her throat.
"Anyway, as I was saying, you need to go to this address and ask for Hikoromaru. He can answer all your questions. You'll be working with him on this case." She concluded handing them a slip of paper, creating her oar and hopping on. "Good luck everyone!" And with that she was once again off to Rekai.
Everyone looked at the slip of paper, back to where Botan once was, and then back to the slip of paper. Kurama took the paper from Yusuke and looked at the address.
"Well, we're off to 479 Sakura Street. Shall we?" And with that, the four were off. (I just made up that address)
A while later, at said address….
"THIS IS THE HOUSE?!?!?" Yusuke and Kuwabara yelled simultaneously. Said house, was really a mansion. It had long stretching lawns, its own forest, but the strangest thing was the fact that it was a temple. Or at least something close to a temple. Standing at the gate, Yusuke rang the bell. The little screen blinked to life and there was a girl with black ear length hair, with blue bangs, and pitch black eyes.
"Hello, what do you need?" The strange girl questioned.
"We need to speak to, uh, Hiko something…what was it again?" The girl just smiled in understanding.
"You must be the people Hi was talking about! And for the record, it's Hikoromaru. Come in, he's expecting you!" And with that the screen went blank again. The gates opened, and the Tantei started walking up the long driveway. When they arrived at the front door, the same girl they had seen before slid it open.
"Hello! My name is Kazeko. I'm Hiko's younger sister. Come on in." She informed them, before bouncing off into the house. They followed behind, taking off their shoes, and following where the girl had gone. They soon found themselves in a living room of sorts, where Kazeko was watching a TV show very intently. A young man soon entered the room.
"Kaze, are the people I told you were coming here yet?" Clearly not noticing that they were already there. Without looking away from the TV, she pointed at where they were sitting on the tatami mats.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't notice you. My name is Hikoromaru. You can just call me Hiko, it's easier. You're the Rekai Tantei, correct?"
"Yup, that's us! So what's going on that needs our attention?" Yusuke questioned. Hiko suddenly looked very serious. He looked over at Kazeko, who suddenly looked over at them. Apparently, it was a commercial break in the show.
"What?" She asked, seeing her elder brother watching her so intently. Hiko sighed.
"Don't you have homework to do? I know you haven't finished writing those two parchments for Professor Snape's class." Kazeko's nose scrunched up with a look of distaste.
"But Hiko! I don't WANT to do it! Professor Snape is evil I tell you, evil!! And I still have a week before I go back to school!" Kazeko whined. Hikoromaru merely stared her down. She was busily staring up at him. Finally she sighed in defeat.
"All right, all right! I'll do it when Inuyasha's over, okay?" Speaking of the devil, the show just came back on, and her attention was refocused.
"You're hopeless. But you do it the minute this is over, okay?" She merely nodded. He sighed, and motioned for the Tantei to follow him. He walked out of the room to a more secluded part of the house, with the detectives following behind. They entered a normal living room where they flopped on the couch, save for Hiei, who simply leaned against the wall.
"I asked my mother to contact Koenma for assistance, because I honestly can't handle this on my own, or even with my other sister's help. You see, about two months ago, a series of attacks started. These attacks were aimed solely at shamans, like my two sister's and my mother, and the occasional wizard who happened to be around. I myself have no shamanistic abilities beyond seeing ghosts, but I am a powerful wizard, as is my father. But the strange thing about these attacks, is that when I finally got there, there was no power left in the beings, spiritual energy, life energy, whatever. I have come to the conclusion that there is a demon or at least a VERY powerful being behind these attacks." Hikoromaru slowly explained.
"So, you want us to help you hunt down this evil person, right?" Kuwabara put in. Hiko nodded.
"I would also appreciate it if you could help me and my family in protecting the others. Kazeko, whom you have met, goes back to school soon, but I don't know if she'll be safe there. For good measure, I asked the Ministry of Magic to allow my sister to take her familiar with her to school. They have consented, so she will be at least a little bit safer."
"Ministry of Magic? What would that be? And what is this school your sister is going to?" Kurama asked in his usual polite tone.
"I am a wizard, as is my father, and my youngest sibling is endowed with both shamanistic abilities and power as a witch. She is going to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, to learn how to be a witch. Magic folk have their own society, away from muggles, which are non-magic people. The Ministry of Magic is the government that rules over said society and makes our laws, punishments, law enforcement, and things like that. My other sister, however, has no power as a witch, but is a very powerful shaman. She is training with my mother at a nearby temple to become a miko. Does that answer your questions?"
"Mostly. Thank you."
"So when do we go out bad guy hunting?" Yusuke asked.
"Well, since my mother and sister, Mizuko, won't be back for awhile, and my parents, split up, shall we say, I'm the only one here to take care of Kazeko. As soon as she's on the train to school, I intend to continue my search. Kazeko leaves on Friday, so you don't have that long to wait. Is that acceptable?" Hikoromaru replied. All of the group nodded their heads. Hiko smiled and stood. It was then they got a real look at their new comrade. He was about 6' 4", 6' 5" with half of his hair black, half of his hair white. His eyes were one black, on the white side of his hair, and one white, on the black side of his hair. He was somewhat muscular, but not too much so. He stood tall, with good posture. He obviously had plenty of confidence in himself. He strode out of the room, showing them the way out.
As they passed the room where Kazeko had once been, they found it empty. Kuwabara suddenly looked minorly troubled.
"Hey, if you two are siblings, then how come you're so much older than she is?" He asked curiously.
"The reason for that, is that I am six years older than Kazeko. I am two years older than my other sister, so there is a fairly large age gap. Kazeko feels left out sometimes, but we manage." They then reached the front door. "I would like to start our search as soon as we are able, so please return here on Friday. It will only take a small amount of time to drop Kazeko off, so we will have the rest of the day to search. Have a nice week!" He waved them off, before shutting the door.
"They are without a doubt, a very strange family." Hiei finally spoke up. The others merely nodded in agreement.
