Note: The's first person that's being spoke about in this chapter, not telling you who it is, is the same one from the prologue. The woman hasn't met any of the Rekai Tentai yet either. Also, I didn't delete the other fic to this. It's in my stories list so if any of ya'll still want to read that one, go right ahead.

Burn with Passion. Kill with Rage.
Yu Yu Hakusho
Hiei

She was passed annoyed. Even with her energy depleted her attitude stayed cold. The tears she shed made her emotionally drained. She was also tired from a restless sleep and sore from unknown reasons.

Drip. Drip. Plop.

Over and over again, she heard it, that annoying noise, never ceasing it's torture. It seemed to grow louder as she concentrated on it, her eyes wincing at every drop of water. While her head was intoxicated, she felt worn out, hanging from chains confining her to this dark and desolate room. A loud creak did nothing to sooth her pounding head as a bright light attacked her retinas painfully.

"Oh, I was wondering when you would awake." A man cooed cheerfully as he stepped into the light that sprung threw the only door, and the only way out.

She tried squinting her eyes to see the man in the blinding light that highlighted his body in a dark aura.

"I just think I'm so thoughtful. I didn't want you to miss your torture. So I waited until you would awake. Some pain before pleasure type of agreement I've worked out. Besides, why should he have all the fun when I brought you here?" He chuckled; the smell of smoke filling her senses once again.

Her head slumped to rid of the pain her eyes were receiving from the light as she tried moving her hands, only to have rusty shackles rub into her skin, tearing it, bruising it. Fresh scent of blood entered her nose as it fell from her wrists down her arms.

The man smirked and took a step in watching her with blood lust in his eyes. Closing the door casually, it returned to it's darkened state once again, killing all hope she had of survival. Her breath caught in her throat at the feel of his hands entangling themselves in her long black hair.

His laugh filled the room as his voice bounced off the walls. "Is this the best Koenma has to offer! A lousy assassin hanging from the ceiling in the very room her mother was killed in! " His sadistic laugh grew, leaving the woman's mind to wonder of what horrendous deeds he could and would do to her, his hand trailing down her naked side.

"Boys. I have a mission for you." Koenma said once the Rekai Tentai walked through the door. He placed a picture on the table of a girl, with orange shoulder length hair and bright blue eyes, before removing his small hand from it. "Her name, Nozomi Akio. She is currently in the Ningenkai. Recently her power has been acting up in spurts. She needs to be brought in before youkai can attack her and get proper training to learn to control it."

"Soo, why not make some other obedient workers do it?" Yusuke asked, evidently irritated, "This is some lame job they handle, not us."

"Yusuke. As much as a bother this is for you. Don't you think I would have asked someone other then yourselves to do this small task?" Koenma tried to reason.

"Uhh. No." He said matter-of-factly, leaving no room for negotiation.

"Your right, so get to work. She needs to be brought in soon. We don't need ningens running around in a panic at a sudden attack." Koenma stated before taking out his stamp, "Oh yes, Botan is waiting for you outside to lead you to the portal. I had no time to find a closer one."

"Whatever. Let's just get over with this. Keiko is getting really pissed at me for ditching her, AGAIN!" Yusuke exclaimed the last part, knowing Koenma could hear how his life was being ruined. He walked with his hands stuffed in his pockets, the others following him without complaint. Kurama had grabbed the photo of Akio from Koenma's desk on his way out. They walked in silence towards the portal until Botan was seen, popping out of no where as usual on her broom.

"Hello boys!" She greeted happily, "This mission should give you a break from other tougher ones, ne?"

"I believe so." Kurama replied politely noticing no one else would answer. They all followed Botan as she floated down the hall on her broom.

"Don't have too much fun now! The portal is right down this hall. See you guys later! Duty calls!" She flew off after the boys jumped threw the blue swirling vortex that would of most likely been intimidating if they had not gone through one so many times before.

"Kuwabara you're so fat! Get off!" Yusuke grumbled, blowing away some dirt from his mouth while lying on the ground, Kuwabara on top of him. He tripped over a over-grown root as he clumsily placed his feet on the ground after jumping out of the portal and succeeded in tackling Yusuke who walked out first. "Whatever Urameshi! You know I'm never gunna get used to that."

Hiei jumped out, purposely stepping on Kuwabara's back to push him back down while Kurama was kind enough to move to the side of them. Once Kuwabara was off, Yusuke and him got into one of the many arguments they have about being an idiot, yelling back and forth causing loud un-needed noise.

"So, Aiko Nozomi is it? We better start searching now. I'll go this way, I know this part of town better. Yusuke and Kuwabara, you two can have the picture." Kurama handed it to them before stalking off in one direction, Hiei already gone, trying to rid of the two ningens as soon as possible.

Yusuke and Kuwabara's argument stopped short, each holding onto the others shirts, ready to punch one another. Looking at the picture that was handed to them, they let go, suddenly forgetting why they were arguing in the first place. Yusuke shrugged and shoved it in his pocket, walking down the only path left with Kuwabara running after him.

I walked down the street with my two friends, Etsu and Kohana. School was so boring as the teachers rambled on about something. I was smart and brought my mp3 player to drown out their voices. People were walking along the streets, working, shopping, or just going to their homes after a hard days work. Nothing special happens here in this town, at least not to me. Normal day routine, every day. Get up, change or shower, eat, school, and than usually come home. It's always quiet around here.

I glanced at my friends holding their own conversation, leaving me to my thoughts. Like the thought that I have been blacking out more than usual. Maybe I'm sick. I haven't told my mother and father. They might just think I'm weak and throw me out. ..It could happen... I haven't told any body in fact.

"Akio...Akio...Akio!" Etsu yelled at me, finally catching my attention.

"Oh...yeah?" Yeah, that was intelligent. I took one step forward, turning to look at Etsu. "Ahh!" Thud.

"Watch where your going! Akio!" Kohana laughed, lending a helping hand as Etsu doubled over, laughing at me, again.

"That's like the tenth time this past month!" Etsu wheezed out through laughing. I sighed and grabbed Kohana's hand, "Thanks."

I've done that so many time, I'm surprised I don't have a scar. See, there's this one section of the sidewalk that's higher then the other. Every time, or at least most of the time, my foot slams into it. Klutz.

"We're heading home Akio. See you at school tomorrow, and try to get your homework done this time." Kohana told me. They waved and turned down their street. I didn't even notice we walked into the residential area of the town, I thought we were still near the markets. I guess I just zoned out. I do that a lot. Just think randomly and forget where I am, or how I got there, it could become dangerous.

I stared at my friends walking down the long road that would soon break into their separate streets. I peeled my head from them and looked ahead, starting the long walk I had to my own home. Maybe I should talk to my parents today, about the black outs. It gets worst every time, and hurts more to the point I black out rather frequently. I don't know what it is, but if I told anyone they might think of me as crazy or maybe I'll find a kind soul. Ha. That's funny. Kind soul, in this town? I don't think so.

I looked up from the ground and found that I was at the ware house close my neighborhood. I'll just go in there, doesn't take long to get home from here and besides, I've already wandered over here, psh go wonder, me-wandering. At least I know my way around here.

I crawled threw the hole that I made when I was little...well about a year or two ago, but I was younger then so yes, little. I made it since I got tired of climbing through the broken window above the metal box that was around here somewhere. Walking into the huge room, boxes were all over the place; big boxes, small boxes, boxes that had no purpose or nothing in side of them either. Some had rust starting to cover them, hurts like a mother if you slip on them. I never saw anyone come in or out of here before so the whole room was layered with a thin sheet of dust.

Sighing, I climbed a few boxes to sit on tall one, letting my legs dangle, hitting the metal of the side with the souls of my feet. Setting my book-bag down beside me, I started to think of anything that came to mind. It's nice to just sit and think, get it all off your chest. As I let my mind wandered, pain wrecked my head and sent shivers down my body. Letting out a surprised yell, I grasped my head, trying to stop the pain as my eyes shut tightly, trying to put pressure were it hurt.

"Ahh!" I leaned forward, closer to my legs to try and huddle into a ball while closing my eyes, which was a bad mistake. I felt my body slowly slip off the edge, the wind slowly picking up. Only, I fell unconscious before I fell to the concrete floor.

At least I would die asleep, err... unconscious.

Hiei. I believe I found her. Kurama spoke to Hiei telepathically, feeling a sudden burst of spirit energy.

"Hn." Kurama nodded at his friend once he appeared at his side, wanting to close this case soon most likely.

"Feel that? I have a hunch it's her. Let's hurry." Kurama and Hiei raced off to origin of the spirit surge, Hiei obviously getting there quicker than Kurama. They stood in abandoned ware house, Kurama at the entrance while Hiei was inside. Hiei shadowed a curled up girl who was having a hard time breathing and perspiration shined off her body in the setting sunlight. Orange hair sprawled out around her as she whimpered, her body shivered randomly with pain. Hiei's eyes widened before he jumped out of the way from a fast floating box that flew at him.

"Seems she has-" Kurama dodged a box aimed for him, "Levitation power."

"What was your first clue kitsune." Hiei snapped glaring at him. Kurama sighed and bent down, touching her shoulder. She shuddered, tensing but soon fell limp from his warm touch, her breathing becoming light and controlled.

"We'll. You can bring her back to Koenma's or find Yusuke and Kuwabara?" Kurama offered.

"Hn." He disappeared quickly leaving Kurama to the girl.

"Figures." He mumbled, grasping the girl in his arms before heading off to Koenma's.

Everything was dark. Pain surged threw my body every now and then, but a warm feeling coursed threw my body stopping the pain. It was on and off. Pain, no pain, pain, no pain. Suddenly the warmth engulfed my body. It felt comfortable like I was on a soft couch or even bed. I didn't know, I was to weak to open my eyes. I knew I wasn't at the ware house anymore but the problem was. I didn't know where I was. Or who brought me here. Wasn't I supposed to be dead?

It didn't matter; I kind of had this kind of sense of security around me, false or not. The warm feeling that consumed my body was to much for to not give into. It was so inviting and it had gotten rid of the pain for me, soon my body could not help but comply, pulling me into a deep slumber.

"Alright, Akio is being treated to stop the pain and damage she may have received. Even though I'll have to wait to explain things to her, I will tell you. Boys. Aiko Nozomi will be your new teammate." Koenma told the four once Kurama came back from the infirmary, dropping Akio off.

"What? Her? Why? She's so small, and- and! ...and...out of control!" Yusuke spoke, trying to collect his words.

"Yes well, with your training, she will become stronger, faster, and hopefully be able to gain some quick battle thinking." Koenma explained calmly, not concerning himself with the boy's feelings.

"Well. Why can't we have a trained team-mate?" Kuwabara asked, appalled at the idea of a woman on the team.

"If you guys train her, you will now her powers and how to work as a team. Besides she will be more comfortable in battle the more time she spends with you."

"Yeah...well that makes sense, but we don't need to spend our free time training some amateur. Can't you get a dedicated "trainer" for this job? I mean, that is what they're there for. "Yusuke complained, trying to get out of this predicament.

"Hmm...I could. There is one person. ...Ayama!" He called out and in a second she was the room, bowing in respect to her Lord.

"Yes sir?" She asked, standing straight.

"Bring Masuya here." He ordered expectantly.

"I'm sorry sir. She never came in for work. Her communicator is broken and the tracking device on her isn't responding." She explained as concern danced in her eyes, waiting for Koenma's response.

"I see. She couldn't have gotten into too much trouble. Inform me when she returns." Koenma stated.

"Yes Lord Koenma." She bowed once again before disappearing, back to her work. Koenma was in deep thought as all was silent. Curiosity fluttered into the boys' minds. Who was this Masuya? What trouble could she possibly be in? Although, it didn't really concern them.

Yusuke, being the kind gentleman he is, suddenly spoke up, breaking the uncomfortable silence.

"So...uhh...does this mean we have to train her?"
