Team Urameshi was gathered once again in Koenma's office, awaiting their newest assignment. Koenma was impatiently tapping is fingers on the oak desk. The only person they were missing was Botan.

"Ogre, will you find Botan and drag her down here?" Koenma commanded angerly. the room had been dead silent, but now all the boys were fully alert and sitting up straight instead of slouching and leaning back in the chairs. as Ogre turned to the overly tall double doors, Botan rushed through them and walked to her seat.

"Sorry I'm late, sir!" apologized Botan, who was out of breath from running down the maze-like halls. She straightened out her pink kimono and sat down in the last remaining chair. "So, what's the new mission?"

Koenma cleared his throat and folded his hands on the desk. "There's a mansion in the Human World that I think needs your

attention. There have been several murders and dissappearances around there."

"Oh! I saw something about that creepy old place on the news," said Kuwabara. "Isn't it somewhere in the moutains near Tokyo?"

"You watch the news?" questioned Yusuke.

"Shut it, Urameshi!"

"This is no time to be joking. It seems that mansion has a great amount of Spiritual Energy emmiting from it," explained Koenma. "There used to be a village around 1050 years ago in the very spot that the mansion was built on. The people of that village dedicated their lives to practising the art of rituals and curses. They died from an attack on the village by demons. there were no survivors, but some people believe the ghosts of those same people now linger in that house, waiting for the demons to come back so they can have their revenge."

"They were never able to be fully put to rest..." said Kurama in a sad voice.

"They cannot die until the rage in their hearts is abolished. Unless they get what they desire, they will continue to haunt and murder innocent lives." Hiei closed his eyes and crossed his arms. "I'm guessing we have to put an end to their misery?"

"Exactly!" The toddler stood up on his chair and put his hands on the desk in a very buisiness-like way. "Your job is to put them to rest. You'll leave there tommarrow and I'm sending Genkai with you."

"Why are you sending the old hag with us?" shouted Yusuke. "It's not like we need adult supervision!"

"Calm down! Have you forgot the countless times Genkai saved your sorry-" the prince was cut off from his sentence.

"Koenma, take a deep breath..." said Botan calmly. "he just woke up on the wrong side of the bed is all."

"Well, go to the mansion tommarrow morning, and remember, physical attacks don't work on ghosts. you'll need to use only your spirit attacks. good luck! you're all dismissed."
