Disclamie: (holds up sock puppet) (high pitched voice) I don't own YuYu Hakusho! Who do I look like, Yoshihiro Togashi? Nope! I'm just a nerd with nothing better to do besides say this disclaimer! (laughs)
Chappie 5-
With Kuwabara and Genkai...-
"Come and play with us..." Children continued to crawl across the wooden floor. Many were lacking limbs and others were severely wounded. Several carried weapons painted with blood. Kuwabara tried to pull out the Sprit Sword to cut through the mob, but he couldn't. It was being held back by the surprisingly powerful force of the kids.
'Man, I didn't expect them to be this strong.' "Genkai, we can't do anything!" he said worridly. "Do we run?"
"No," said the old lady wisely. "If we run they will catch up quickly and kill us. At the moment we are trapped helplessly in a corner. All we can do is take the blow." She stood her ground bravely and Kuwabara copied.
"Come on," taunted the child leading the crowd, who also seemed to be the most wounded. She had short blond hair that was stained with dried, red liquid along with her practically white fog-like body and her ragdoll clothing. "Don't be afraid, play with us." The phantoms pinned the two to the ground by yanking on their legs and arms. They giggled as their bodies hit the floor with a thud.
"Thank you for joining us in our game," said the female ghost as she hovered over the bodies, that were now held down by the evil forces surrounding them. "Too bad our fun has to end so soon..." She pulled out a dagger and took a life threatning swipe at their necks while she giggled evily.
'Wait a second...' Genkai grasped the knife between her palm, yanked it out of the girl's hand, and threw it up against the wall a few feet behind them. It struck the fragile wood and stayed there like a dart on a target. Kuwabara stared in confusion until he realized what Genkai had. The ghost was surprised and distracted by the sudden action, which lowered the powers for a moment. The knife was glowing with the spiritual energy of the ghosts. While the girl's guard was let down, Kuwabara got up off the floor and went to the knife.
"Oh no you don't!" Shouted the ghost. She held out her hand and a blast of energy flew toward the teen. Kuwabara dodged it and threw the dagger like a boomerang. It headed straight for her gut. "NO! I can't be defeated by a human! NOOOOOOO!" Her voice echoed in the nearly empty room as her vengeful spirit was put down. The rest of the spirits left but one said,
"We will come back for you...and Hiei..." The room was now empty. There was no sign that their had been any battle, besides the hole in the wall. Genkai got up off the floor and brushed herself off.
"That was some pretty good thinking coming from someone with such a tiny brain." Kuwabara frowned as the old hag trudged toward another door in the room.
With Yusuke and Botan...
The door that had beem previously opened by the little boy had led to a large room with a fireplace in the center. Wooden shelves and cabinets were lined up against the left wall and were occupied by antiques, books, and old paintings, all which were covered by dust. Botan looked at the fireplace while slowly walking towards it. She crouched down to get a closer look.
"Dust has been disturbed around the logs. I think it was lit recently." The air hovering around the blackened wood smelled of fresh smoke and ashes.
"Yeah, someone's been through here." Yusuke looked to the ground. "Kid sized footprints are heading to the stairs." He pointed to the small footmarks engraved in the filth of the eroded wooden planks.
"Maybe it was that little boy who helped us back there," said the grim reaper as she stood up. "Let's follow them and see if we can find him. I'm sure he knows some pretty useful things about this place."
They followed the trail across the room and up the staircase. The tracks ended at the top of the stairs which led to a room overlooking the fireplace. It was practically empty besides a few boxes in a corner. They were filled with various family valuables, like moving boxes. Most of the items were photos, old and faded with black and white images. One picture was a medium sized and faded colored painting of a teenaged girl with extremely long hair, part of which was covering half her face. She had a possesed and dazed look in her red eyes that seemed to stare at the two detectives as their eyes roamed the room. Yusuke walked over to the crates and picked up the painting. "She looks pretty unhappy," he said. Botan joined him in looking at the picture.
"I wonder what happened to her." Botan pointed out a large red gash across her cheek that ran down to her neck. It looked like it had been inflicted by a blade of sorts. She also had burn marks on her skin and the grey kimono she was wearing wa plagued by scorch marks and rips.
Suddenly a ghostly chill made its way around the room. The two turned their heads slowly, only to come face to face with the woman in the photo. She stared down angerly at them as she hovered in the chilly air. Fresh blood dripped from the gash on her pale skin and landed on the ground creating a red puddle under her shadow. Her eyes glowed red, like the color of her blood, forming a small bit of red light.
"You have tresspassed this scared ground, just like the pitiful humans humans before you. I only wanted Hiei, so the rest of you must join the others in Hell!" she shouted with rage and evil dripping from her voice. Her the light of her eyes grew greater and dirty bandages traveled out of her extending hair and went through the floorboards like they were tissue paper. They eventually found their victims and wound themselves around the two, slamming them into the wall of the downstairs. Botan fell to the ground unconscience, while the Spirit Detective pushed off the wall using his feet.
"Spirit Gun!" He fired a shot at the demonic lady's chest, senting her plumeting to the ground from her position in the air.
"So, you're not a human after all," she stated calmly as she jumped back into her place. "Impressive strength, but you'll meet your graves soon enough."

Roo: so this chappie was the shortest chappie in the bunch...I really don't care!
Kari: Old habits die hard, or so they say.
Roo: Yes, Hiei and Kurama aren't in this chappie, but they get most (or all) of many future chappies, so joy to them!
Kari: Yeah, we have plans for them...(evil smirk)
Roo: (bashes Kari on the head with mallet) You're giving away too much info!
Kari: (puts ice pack on head) Sure, you just thank the reviewers.
Roo: Alright! Here goes something!
Jabber-Nut Foxypants: So many thankies for the so many wonderful comments! And, as you wish for after every single chappie, here's your update, as promised. I hope you liked this chappie! You're the best! Now, UPDATE HELL'S BELLS RUNG TWICE! ...Plez?
MeiHikari: Thankies so much for supportin' the fic as much as you do! Your reviews always make me smile! Yes, the Grudge was a good movie. Though they'll need a sequal in the future. The ending is a major sign that they'll need another. Fatal Frame was also a very good game! Though I'm stuck on Night 3...hn. I didn't understand the ritual thingywa too much myself, so I'll really need to rent that game again. (or buy it, whichever comes first) Or I can just invert things to ways that make more sence to me (whichever way is cheaper).
FlamezFlyer: AWWWWWWW, arigato Jodie-chan! (glomp) Don't worry, you're already a super good writer! Why else are we planning on making a supremely cool manga with YOU as the main writer? Just keep writing, okay? I hope I'm improving on my spelling/grammar...I'm not too good in those catagories...(cough) (hack) (seizure) (die) X.x

Roo: Well, I think that was everybody!
Kari: I still can't believe that this many people like you!
Roo: Stop being rude, baka! (whacks Kari with phone)
Kari: O.o'

Kari: Which is...?
Roo: The dangers of phones!
Kari: O.o
Roo: Never never NEVER pick up a phone at the speed of light! Tried it a few minutes ago, got stabbed in the eye by the antenna of that evil fiend! (poits to eye patch on eye)
