Kat: back for another chapter by popular request.

Kii: I hope that was sarcasm .

Kat: Yeah, it was. We only got one review out of five chapters. Can you believe that Kii?

Kii: Unfortunately, yes.

Kat: Well maybe we can get more with this one.

Kii: Let's have it a few pages. Like nine.

Kat: If we CAN come up with that many. So, what are we going to talk about, Kii, for nine pages?

Kii: Um… Our fic.

Kat: Then let's get on with it. Shall we?

Kii: Yeah. We don't own Yu Yu Hakusho!

Kat: That too.

Chapter 6: Bees, bees and more bees

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

"Oh, Kii, who do you have to see?" asked Kat as she was dragged off by Sayo.

"Some stupid idiot who's interested in my abilities. I'll tell him 'no' then come back, 'kay?" Kii said boredly.

"Don't get killed, okay?" Kat said before she disappeared around the corner.

"Yeah yeah! Okay!" Kii replied.

"So, would you mind before you go that I get a bit of your poison?" questioned Sakia.

"Sure," Kii replied, grinning.

Sakia took a jar with cloth over the top, like the ones that they use on snakes to depoison them, and held it to Kii.

"Now don't bit me instead of the cup okay?"

Kii gave her a grin. "Okay. I won't slip," she said, biting down on the cup.

When Sakia thought that there was enough in the cup she took it gently back.

"Thank you."

"Yeah," Kii replied, heading in the opposite direction, waving her hand. "Ja ne."

"Ja ne, Kii," replied both Sakia and Tsunami who just walked back in.

"Where she going?"

"Somewhere, don't worry she'll be back soon," answered Sakia.

With Kii

"Are you Kazerume Kii?" a shadowed figured asked.

"Hai. You are?" Kii asked, narrowing her eyes trying to see the man.

"That is none of your concern," the man replied back.

"What do you want?" Kii asked as demons began to surround her.

"Oh, I think that you know exactly what I want," he answered coldly.

"Kuso," she swore as the demons came closer.

"You shouldn't swear, that isn't very lady like," the man scolded.

Kii grinned. "Then don't piss one off."

He ignored that last statement and continued, "Now, give me what I want, and you wont get hurt."

"You know, I can't just bring anyone back to life..." Kii paused to let that sink in. "And I'm not afraid of you. Your threats will do nothing," Kii added.

"Oh, I don't want anyone back to life..." he paused just like her to let it sink in. "Oh, no, I killed my family, and I'll do it again just to see their faces as I deceived them."

"You don't... want me to bring someone back to life?" Kii asked, shocked.

"Why would I do that? Not when you took something from me, and I want it back," he answered very amused by her look.

"I stole many things. Do you expect me to remember one? I am a thief, after all," Kii said, glaring at him.

"Oh, but you should remember this one. Of course I'm not going to tell you. Why should I? That wouldn't be any fun," he snickered.

"...You're a sick bastard," Kii replied, looking around.

"What did I tell you about language?" he asked nodding to the demons surrounding her to attack. "But thank you for the complement"

Kii didn't even blink. She quickly summonsed her foxes, and the foxes rabidly attacked the demons.

The man, that still is unnamed, watched in amusement as all of his demons were quickly being killed off. He clapped when she was done, and they where all dead.

"Very good, thief, but do you think that you can survive this?" he questioned.

Kii remained silent as she stared emotionlessly at him.

"I must warn you before we go any farther that my friend sold most of my stuff to buy her drinks," Kii said.

"Oh, that's okay then you will just have to pay it back with your life," he answered. "Then when your gone I'll get your friend too," he snickered. "Or should your friend go first?"

Kii smirked. "When it comes to my friends, nobody EVER gets past me."

"Oooh, I'm scared," he pretended to shake in his boots.

"...I'm not afraid of you, nor of your tricks. You are just an idiotic fool," Kii said bitterly.

"Well, then how do you fare against hornets?" he questioned before hundreds of hornets were let lose in the room.

"You know there is no guarantee that they're going to attack me," Kii said, trying not to be afraid.

"These ones will," he answered watching her struggle to not be scared.

"How do you figure that?" she asked, eyeing the bees.

"'Cause these are special ones that hone in on anyone in their area that bugs them and sting, but don't worry it only feels like a, well you know," he laughed.

Kii paled. Kii continued to loose the color in her face. I'm gonna die, she thought.

'Perfect soon that fox will pay,' he thought with a grin watching the show.

'Okay,' Kii thought. 'There are approximately 6 million bees. The chance of getting away is approximately 6 million to one,' Kii thought bitterly. 'If I some how... yes that's it. It's dangerous, and it will kill anyone in the immediate proximity...'

"Also don't try and fry them. It'll just make them multiply," he said breaking her train of thought sensing what she was going to do. "Well, that was what you were planning on do right, thief?" he asked after seeing the rest of the color from her face drain.

"...I don't have to explain anything to you!" she snapped at him.

"Oh, my, I foiled her great plain. Didn't I? My my, what a shame? Now how are you going to get out of this?" he asked.

"I have one question, and I hope you feel obliged to answer it," Kii replied, staring at the bees.

"Well, I guess so since you might die."

"How did you know I was Anaphylaxis?" Kii asked. "I have never told anyone."

"Oh, I have my sources. Actually, a little drunk birdie told me," he slyly stated.

"Kat...? But how did she know? I didn't tell her either..." Kii said.

"That is what you're going to have to ask her. If you every get out alive."

Kii narrowed her eyes. "I have a slight flaw. I seem to survive everything."

"But really I didn't know you had that. I just knew you were deathly afraid of hornets."

"...I'm not 'deathly afraid,'" Kii said angrily.

"Then why don't you try and get out alive. Mind you there are more of them then there are of you," he answered.

Kii smirked. "I'm famous for my tricks. I can get out of anything. It's a terrible strong point."

"So, I have heard. Then this should be a piece of cake for you then," he replied watching and waiting for her to do something anything.

"When there's smoke, there's confusion. And fire," Kii smirked. "Are you following me at all?"

"Yeah, but fire equals more hornets," he retorted.

"Who said anything about attacking the hornets? My target is you," Kii said, pointing at him.

"Do you think that you being a fire demon slipped my mind when I brought you here?" he asked her very coolly.

"Who said I'm just using fire?" Kii asked, trying to aggravate him.

"Oh, what else are you going to use?" he questioned back getting a bit worried but didn't show it.

"Why should I tell you? After all you are my enemy in this fight," Kii said slyly. "But I'll tell you anyway. I'm using your own tricks against you. Your own pride and foolishness will lead you to your death," Kii said coldly.

"Ah, that's what you think," he said.

"These are hornets, correct?" Kii asked, staring at the bees.

"Yes, why?" He eyed her unsure of what was going on.

"All bees are attracted to things such as both fear and pollen, correct?" Kii inquired.

"Yes. What is with the 20 questions?" he asked.

Kii threw a small glass vile at him and it exploded against his chest. "I figured you'd try something like this. That is filled with pollen that hornets are attracted to. They'll attack you, not me."

The man began to chuckle. "Do you think that they would attack me?"

"What do you mean?" Kii asked.

"I created them. They wouldn't hurt me," he laughed again

"...Created?!" Kii looked at him. 'If he created them, then they won't be attracted to the pollen!'

"Yes, they are my children," he buzzed with excitement.

"...You. You and your foolish ways. If you truly want something, then take it from me!" Kii challenged.

"Oh, I will, but first I'll have some more fun with you," he sneered buzzing to his children to attack.

Kii didn't move. She didn't blink nor flinch. She stood her ground, staring at the bees, awaiting the attack that would come after being stung. 'I heard it's painful,' she thought. 'I wonder if I have my antidote with me...'

"Giving up so easily?" he asked. "What a shame."

"Heh. It's a pity really. You being such a fourth rate and all," Kii said scathingly.

He called his children off. "What did you say?" he angrily asked.

"I said fourth rate. At least I don't hide behind my abilities and my tricks," she said smirking at him.

"Are you calling me to a battle?" he asked starting to enjoy her entertainment.

"Yes. A fair fight between two demons without the help of natural allergies or fears," Kii said grinning broadly.

"Fine, I guess the tables are starting to turn a bit. Don't you say?" he asked getting up to shake on it.

"No bees either. You seem to be the type to take anything as possible if not mentioned in rules," Kii told him.

"Okay, we'll play by your rules. No help or my children," he stated calling his children back.

"You are aware that I've never lost before, ne?" Kii asked smirking confidently.

"Nor have I."

The two squared off waiting for the other to make the first move. After five minutes nobody moved yet.

"I'm giving you an opening. Why don't you take it?" Kii asked boredly.

"Ladies first," he replied with a smile.

"Oh no. I insist," Kii responded.

"Well, that would be very ungentlemanly like of me."

Kii shrugged. "Your whole strategy relies on me going first, doesn't it?"

"Well, I guess if we are ever going to get this fight going I should make the first move. Shouldn't I?" he asked.

"Whatever, Freak. Your choice," Kii answered.

The demon, which is still unnamed, ran towards Kii. Kii jumped, spun in the air, and threw a knife at his back, but the demon disappeared just in time.

"Huh?" Kii wondered aloud, landing on the ground, looking around.

When she looked back to her left she was introduced to his fist, sending her flying across the room.

"You know you really should keep an eye on your opponent," he chuckled.

"Bastard," Kii cussed at him. Staying on the floor, she performed a forbidden technique. "The Raiding Fox!"

A giant fox of flame appeared growling at the man.

"My, my you seem to never learn do you?" he questioned her with a smile. "Fire equals more of me," he answered her quizzical look. "I thought I told you that all ready?"

On Kii's collarbone, her mark began to burn. Ignoring the burning, she told him simply "Baka."

"Oh, I'm a baka now am I? But I'm not the one who forgot about a flaw my own attacks on my enemies," he answered mildly amused.

"Who said I forgot about the flaw?" Kii asked mysteriously as she lifted herself from the floor.

"Well, then why call upon flames on me?" he asked.

"This fox may look only flame. But she isn't."

"Then what is it?" he asked getting worried but underneath he had a plan.

"All I'll tell you is that she is forbidden, and that I can't control her."

"I thought that you weren't going too hid behind your abilities?"

"Aren't you?" Kii asked. "You hide behind the fact that flame doesn't affect you."

"But I am not hiding behind that. It's true that flames don't affect me. That hasn't stopped me from attacking you," he stated.

Kii collapsed. "SHIT!" she exclaimed. 'I can't control her...'

The fox began lash out randomly, breaking things.

Something underneath Kii's shirt glowed.

'Damnit. It burns.'

"What is that?" he asked watching Kii.

"You don't have to know," Kii gasped out calling the fox to return.

"That's it," he exclaimed. He mental called for one of his children to sting Kii.

"You said no bees!" Kii said surprised as she heard one fly towards her.

"That is true, but were you expecting this?" he asked as he disappeared and reappeared right next to her and stung her with his nail.

"I guess not," he chuckled to himself as he picked her up and carried her to another room.

Kii woke up looking at a black ceiling. Her arms and ankles were shackled down.

"So, it seems that you survived?"

Kii pulled on her binds and glared at him murderously.

"Wow, you know that saying 'if looks can kill'? I guess I would be dead now wouldn't I?" he asked amused. "So, do you think that you can get out of this like you said that you could?"

Smiling slightly, she made a gesture. A rude one.

"You're one fowl person," he said very rudely.

She smirked. "I'll be able to get out. In time," she said, beginning to stare out the window. "It's just too much of a bother right now."

"Well, when that time comes around my children will be here to see that it won't happen. But now I have to do some more business. My children, keep her company, please," he said leaving in a huff.

Kii remained silent, staring at the rain-stained window. The sound of millions of hornets filled the room. Kii didn't really care as she stared out the window. She didn't like the feeling of being trapped. It made her mind swirl and her stomach lurch. She didn't like the stale air around her either.

Back to the others

"Sayo, leave me ALONE," shouted a mad neko youkai storming out the room.

"... Poor little Kat," Sayo chuckled.

"KII, WHERE ARE YOU?" Kat yelled looking around. "YOU BETTER GET OUT HERE, OR I'M GOING TO KILL YOU," she added tail twitching and bell ringing.

"Kat... calm down. I sense that something went very wrong tonight," Sakia said leaning against a wall.

"How wrong?" Sayo asked.

"Very, very, wrong," Sakia replied.

"What are you two talking about? Where's Kii?" Kat asked worried and angry, but mostly worried.

Sakia looked very concerned. "I don't know where Kii is. I found it odd that she didn't tell us more today..."

"Would someone like to explain?" Kat questioned. "Or do I have to get it out of you?"

"... Kii's in danger, Kat. Something has gone terribly wrong," Sakia replied then shrugged helplessly.

"Where did she go and when?"

"Oh that's right she was drunk," Sayo said.

"She left this afternoon. She went to see someone about some business... That's all the information she gave. Then she went," Sakia said.

"And you two LET her?"

"She knows what she's doing, Kat. Usually anyway. I think this situation was more serious then she was led to believe," Sakia said logically.

"Why didn't she tell me about this? I would have gone with her," stated Kat.

"You were drunk. You said goodbye and everything," Sayo replied, shrugging.

"No, that's a lie. I would have tried and gone with her," argued the neko.

"You said goodbye. There are tons of witnesses. This is stupid, Kat. Good night!" Sayo said opening one of the doors in the hall and slamming it shut.

"I'm going to bed, Kat," Sakia said, following Sayo. "Well wait until morning to do something."

Kat was just left to herself in the hallways fuming. The next thing that she knew she was holding her head, doubled over in pain and let out a scream.

Kat? a telepathic message asked worriedly.

Yes, she replied back in pain.

Everyone ran into the hall where Kat was. Including the Reikai Tentai.

It's me, Kat. Kii.

REALLY? We do have a connection. But, where are you?

I don't know.

You're hurt, I can tell.

Not much. What about you? It probably took a bit of pain out of you in order to contact me when I'm like this....

Are you kidding me? It is worse then a hangover, she chuckled back.

...It's great to hear you laugh. At this moment, I'm being guarded by BEES.

Bees? How did the enemy know about your bee phobia?

Does the quote "A little drunk birdie told me" mean anything to you?

I am soo sorry, Kii. How was I supposed to know that guy was the enemy? she questioned trying to defend herself.

...No matter. Anyways, the last place I was at these coordinates. Negative 545 positive 5454,

Okay, I'll get the others. Actually, the others are here after that scream. Hang on tight okay, Kii? she asked in a concern voice.

Yeah I'll be fine. Oh and there's one window in the room I'm in. And the guy's strength is fire. He uses bees a lot. 'kay?

Okay, you must be in heaven there. We'll be there as soon as we can.

...Yeah. Oh and tell Sakia 'Tamoura Takara, Kii's Demise.' She'll know what I'm talking about.

Ookayy. Now, we should disconnect. I can't hold this much longer the pain is killing me.

Alright. Bye Kat! There was a bit of noise like static, then silence inside her head.

On the other end, there was the static, followed by another scream.

"Why am I the only one that feels the pain?" Kat jokingly stated leaning up a bit after she collapsed on the floor from the pain.

"What's wrong, Kat?" Sakia asked sitting on her knees next to Kat.

"Nothing, I'm fine now. Just that Kii and I connected. Those things hurt, but only I fell the stupid pain," Kat said still preferring to sit then to stand.

"What did she say?" Sayo asked.

Yusuke and the rest of the Reikai Tentai stood clueless. They were staying over until they were treated.

"She's fine, surrounded by bees but fine. Her last know coordinates were negative 545 positive 5454. Also to tell Sakia that 'Tamoura Takara, Kii's demise', something like that," she explained.

Sakia's eyes got wide. "Are you sure it was 'Tamoura Takara, Kii's Demise'?"

"Yeah, I think so. Why? What does that mean?" she asked getting scared.

Sayo looked at Sakia worriedly too. "What's going on Sakia?"

Sakia said nothing. She stood in shocked silence before she finally replied, "Kii and I met when we were kids."

"Yeah, we know that, but what did Kii mean?"

"We've known each other ever since then. When we were in our teens, we made up a code to help each other when we were in trouble. That code was 'Tamoura Takara, Kii's Demise,'" Sakia said, still a little shocked. "We never used it, because when we tell each other that, we're telling each other to use a very painful, forbidden technique," Sakia said slowly.

"What forbidden technique?" Kurama asked.

"No, Kii would never use that," stated Kat. "Even I know about that technique. She couldn't."

"Its not the one you're thinking of..." Sakia said slowly.

"What are you talking about, Sakia? I know Kii's techniques."

"This one... she's kept secret. I'm the only one who knows because I was there... I was there when something happened to her that I can't tell you of," Sakia said. "This technique is a teleporting technique," Sakia told them.

"Like I said I know her techniques. If she did have this then why did she tell me?"

"She... She isn't exactly proud of the fact that she can use forbidden techniques," Sakia replied uncomfortably.

"Well, what's wrong when she uses it? I mean how bad can it be to use it?" Kat asked.

Sakia shifted uncomfortably. "What's wrong is when she teleports, first she goes to the Forbidden World. The Forbidden World is a dark world. If you stay there too long the life could be sucked right out of you. You never know how long you stay there when you teleport," Sakia said.

"I don't understand. Why would she want to use that?"

"... Because. It can get her out of there. She doesn't want to use it. She wants ME to use it," Sakia said uncomfortably. "Only the one with the Cursed Mark can use it. But those who are connected to her can use it too. You could learn, Kat. But I wouldn't advise it. We use it for emergencies."

"Okay, teach me," Kat said not give any thought to what Sakyo really said. "If it would save Kii then I'll do it."

"... I can't do that. Not without Kii's permission. This is HER technique. Now everyone who's going, step here." Sakia pointed to a spot on the floor.

"Are you saying that you won't teach me?"

"I can't," Sakia replied. "Sayo, you coming?"

"Nah. I figure I'll keep an eye on things here. Kat can go with you."

"I'll go with," Yusuke said, stepping in the place she had pointed.

"How are we going to get her out without the technique? I know that coordinates that that isn't going to be easy getting in or out. Even with all of our powers."

Sakia smiled bitterly. "It's forbidden. And it has nothing to do with our powers. We must hope that Kii has enough. It will immediately teleport us to her."

Sakia dug out some white chalk and drew a circle on the ground around Yusuke, large enough for Kat to squeeze in to.

"Wait," said Kurama stepping up. "Yusuke, you can't go. Most of your body is paralyzed. You wouldn't be able to fight. I'll go instead."

"He's right you know," explained Kat changing moods (she does that a lot). "You should listen 'cause if not then I'm going to have to step in, and it ain't going to be pretty."

"You should listen to her," stated Sako. "Last time someone didn't listen to her they ended up eating garbage for days."

Kurama stepped into the circle, forcing Yusuke out.

"One question before this all happens," started Kurama, "What would happen if Kii doesn't have enough power?"

"Then we'll all die," Sakia replied calmly. "I have no doubt in her powers."

"Oh, that's good to know," Kat said.

"Okay. Anyone want to back out?" Sakia asked, looking directly at Kurama.

"No, I'm going to go," he answered her.

"Alright. Everyone grip my hands," she instructed

Kat took Kurama's hand then Sakia's, and Kurama took Sakia's hand.

"Okay. Here we go," Sakia smiled, and they disappeared.

The trio came to a barren world. The sky was dark and the air damp and moist. A feeling of uncertainty bubbled up in their chests, and Sakia took out her chalk once again.

"Sakia, is this the Forbidden World?" asked Kat looking around not liking it one bit.

"Yeah," Sakia said calmly, drawing yet another circle with the chalk. "Same thing as before. Quickly as possible now."

Kurama stepped inside the circle. Then Kat. Sakia grabbed both Kurama and Kat's hands, and smiling, made them vanish.

Sakia, Kurama, and Kat appeared in a dim room, lit by only one window. A table stood in the middle, with broken binds. In the corner eyes glowed mysteriously at them, and a voice asked, "Is that you guys?"

They all heard a buzz, and looked up to see thousands upon thousands of bees.

"Kii, that you? Oh, I'm so happy," Kat answered with a grin ignoring them and undid Kii's bondage.

Sakia asked hesitantly, "Are you okay? How was the technique?"

Kii answered her bitterly, "Oh no pain at all," she said sarcastically. "It felt like a thousand daggers piercing my skin, that's all. No biggy."

"So, now how are we all going to get out of here?" asked Kat looking around at the bees.

"They multiply with fire. So their weakness should either be earth or water," Kii replied.

"I could try and trick all of them but that could be tricky," suggested Kat.

"Give it a shot," Kii replied. "After all, all I have to loose is my life."

"Aah, you won't lose your life. I won't let that happen," Kat said with a smile. "But here I go."

Kat closed her eyes. Her tail twitched wildly behind her causing the bell to sound. She then opened her eyes and stared at what she believed to be the leader of the 'pack'. Nothing happened.

"Um... I guess that it didn't work," she said shyly as the bees buzzing grew louder.

"Nice," Kii replied bitterly.

Sakia stared hard at Kii. Under Kii's hand, she noticed a faint glow of the Curse Mark.

"Hey, I tried," she answered rubbing the back of head.

"Yeah. Now it's my turn," Sakia replied.

"Whatcha going to do?" asked Kat.

"Icy Prison!" she shouted.

Her hands made a quick gesture to the ceiling, and an icy prison surrounded them.

"Sakia, you could have warned me," Kat whined rubbing her bare arms. "I would use my powers on us."

"Quit whining," Kii replied. Her voice was sharp, and her words were as smart-ass as ever despite her injuries.

"Did it work?" questioned Kurama looking at the bees.

"I don't know. We need to leave," Sakia replied.

Sakia walked over to Kii, and put her arm over her own shoulder, and helped her up.

"I'm fine Sakia. I can walk on my own." Kii said.

"Hey, you're injured. So, let her help you," stated Kat.

"I don't need help!" Kii spat.

Kii seemed in an especially foul mood right now.

"Don't get mad at Kii, please don't. You know that I don't like when that happens," Kat said getting a bit teary eyed.

Kii glared angrily and allowed the ice/kitsune to help her.

"Good, then you aren't mad at me?"

"Of course I am!" Kii snapped.

"Don't be mean, Kii," Sakia told her scornfully.

"That's okay, Sakia, 'cause she knows that by the time that we get home she won't know that she was ever mad," stated Kat.

"Don't try your stupid attacks on me right now. Right now I rather be angry." Kii said stubbornly.

"But Kiii, I hate people being mad at me," pouted Kat. "But if you want to be angry then don't be at me."

"Stop it both of you," Sakia snapped. "We're going to get caught."

"Yes, you should stop. You don't want me to catch you," snickered someone at the doorway.

"Who are you?" asked Sakia.

"Oh, I guess I could tell you. My name is Hachi," the man said.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Kat: Kii guess what?

Kii: What now?

Kat: We wrote 9 pages in two days.

Kii: Wow. Fascinating.

Kat: Yeah, cool huh? Just like you said 9 pages, and that's what we wrote.

Kii: I'm physic.

Kat: I knew you would be.

Kii: Of course.

Kat: Are you being sarcastic?

Kii: Yeah, so just R&R.
