Hello again. I'm happy to know that some people like my story. Well here is chapter two. I hope you like it. I'm not sure if I have to say this every time, but I will anyway. I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho. Enjoy.
Chapter 2: Enter Zoë
Kazuma is pacing his room wondering what to wear. He looks at his calendar for the fifth time this afternoon.
"August 12th," he mumbles, "She'll be here in about an hour. What to wear?"
He finally decides on an outfit when a young woman with long brown hair walks in.
She leans up against the wall and says, "What's wrong Bro? Are you nervous?" She laughs at her little brother before stating why she came in. "Botan stopped by earlier. She said to meet her in the park by the yellow bench at three."
"Did you tell her about Zoë?" Kazuma responded.
"Yes, I told her that you might be a little late because a friend was coming over."
"Ok. Thanks Sis," Kazuma said as his sister walked off.
In the Park
"Where is he Botan? It's already 3:30." A young man with chocolate eyes and raven hair asked a blue hared woman.
"Shizuru said that he was having a friend over and that when she got there they would make their way here," she replied.
"A girl?!?"
"What's so shocking Yusuke?"
"I just can't see any girl wanting to be Kuwabara's friend," Yusuke laughed.
Just as Yusuke was about to make another comment, someone showed up behind him.
"Hey guys, sorry I'm late. I just had to wait for Zoë," the one Yusuke called Kuwabara stated as he pointed to a girl standing next to him.
Before Zoë was able to say 'hi' a young man with unnatural ebony hair and crimson eyes came down from a near by tree. He glared at the blue hared woman and rudely said, "Now that the fool is here, tell us what it is you have to say. And why isn't Kurama here?"
Botan closed her pink eyes and sighed, "Kurama said that he wouldn't be able to make it today because one of his teachers needed to speak with him. Now that Kuwabara is here, we have a new mission, but this one wasn't issued by Koenma."
"Who else can give us a mission?" Yusuke asked with a shocked look on his face.
Botan put on her best cat face and meowed before saying, "Well, it isn't really a mission. It is more like a favor." She took a deep breath and glanced at the crimson-eyed young man, "I need you help with something. Koenma's birthday is coming and his dad thinks we should throw him a surprise party. Hiei," she glared at the crimson-eyed young man, "you have no choice. You have to help me whether you want to or not. If you don't…"
"Hn. I'll help with your stupid party, but only if it will get you to shut up." Hiei said as he walked off.
"Well now, that was rude," Zoë softly said as she watched him walk off. She looked back at Botan, "I'd like to help, if you'll have it that it."
Botan smiled sweetly and nodded her head, "I would love your help. Oh!" She put her hand in front of her mouth, "How rude of me. My name's Botan." She put her hand out and Zoë took it in hers.
"I'm Yusuke and that," the young man with chocolate eyes said pointing at Hiei's retreating form, "is Hiei. He's not a very friendly person so don't feel bad if he doesn't warm up to you right away."
"Yes, Kazuma has told me about him. He has told me about everyone, even that you are a spirit detective, Botan is the grim reaper, and Kurama and Hiei are demons," Zoë said smiling sweetly at Yusuke.
"And you believe all of what he has told you?" Yusuke asked.
"Yes I do. I'm not sure why though. I just have this strange feeling that it's true."
"Well now I won't have to explain about where the party is going to be held," Botan mumbled.
Zoë looked at her watch and quickly said, "I'm sorry, but I have to go meet up with my aunt now. It was nice to meet you and I hope to see you again soon. Bye."
Well, it's not the longest chapter. They will hopefully get longer. So Koenma's birthday is coming and they want to throw him a party. Hehe. Won't that be fun. And I wonder what Kurama's teacher needed to speak with him about… Bye now.
