Ch. 5: The Truth is Revealed
Recap:
"Tell them Kurama. They can handle it." Genkai persuaded.
"But..."
"Kurama, they're not what they appear to be."
"You mean..."
"Yes, Kurama. Serena and Kila are demons."
"WHAT THE HELL'S WRONG WITH YOU, YA OLD HAG! HAVE YOU GONE SENILE OR SOMETHING! YOU DON'T JUST GO TELLING HUMANS ABOUT DEMONS! THEIR PUNY BRAINS WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO COMPREHEND IT!" Serena yelled.
"Hey! I'm a human and my brain can take it!" Kuwabara retaliated.
"Since when did you have a brain?" Kila asked.
"SEE! HE DOESN'T COUNT! HE'S A COMPLETE BAKA!" Serena roared.
"Calm down, Serena." Genkai said.
"CALM DOWN! CALM DOWN! YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN! HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO CALM DOWN, WHEN YOU JUST TOLD HUMANS, HUMANS, THAT WE WERE DEMONS!"
"SERENA! YOU WILL SHUT YOUR MOUTH RIGHT NOW, BEFORE I HAVE TO GO INTO THE CONSEQUENCES! AGAIN!" Genkai yelled. Serena went silent. The hag continued. "If you had let me explain, you would have known that these four boys are the new Spirit Detectives." Serena's eyes went wide.
"You mean...oh, hell... YA COULD'VE TOLD ME THAT SOONER!"
"You didn't ask." Silence fell over the room. Everyone was staring at the master and the demon. Genkai was looking smug while Serena was twitching. Not just "twitching" twitching, but "badly" twitching.
"Excuse me for a sec..." the demoness said. She ran upstairs and the sound of a door being slammed shut echoed through the temple, followed by the sound of something pounding against something hard.
"Um...what's that sound?" Kurama asked.
"Oh, that's Serena. She probably found a conveniently located brick wall to bang her head against." Kila questioned.
"I'll go save my beloved 'Rena-chan!" Kuwabara squealed. Just then, the pounding sound stopped and Serena came flying down the stairs and took her usual spot grabbing Kuwabara's shirt collar and lifting him up in the air. Then she spoke, trying to keep her calm, and failing miserably.
"Remember what I told you, dumb ass? Something about me not being yours and something about, oh, I don't know, NOT CALLING ME 'RENA CHAN! CAPISH!" she shouted.
"Capi, capi, yes..." he trembled. She dropped him.
"Good. Now what was I doing before that? Oh yea!" she ran back upstairs and the pounding sounds returned. Hooray, the sweat drops have returned.
"Yea...someone might want to stop her before someone gets hurt..." Yusuke said. Kila sighed
"Yea, I guess your right. She might break the brick wall, and then I'd be out of a perfectly good conveniently placed brick wall. I'M COMING, CONVENIENTLY PLACED BRICK WALL!" Kila cried. Then she rushed upstairs. Look! The sweat drops have company! They brought confuzzled blinking! Hooray! (S Y: yes, I am insane if you haven't noticed already. Hiei: Oh, I noticed. S Y: SILENCE!)
"The onna's are pretty stupid for demons." Hiei coldly stated. (SEE! HE DOESN'T HAVE TO SAY 'HN' ALL THE TIME!)
"You do realize I can hear you, don't you?" A voice rang in Hiei's ear, causing him to jump. Spinning around with his hand on the hilt of his katana, he turned to face Serena, who now had a smug look on her face.
"Nice one, Serena!" Kila said, coming down the stairs. "Genius!"
"I know, wasn't it though?" The two girls chuckled. Then each girl took a seat next to one of the tantei. Kila sat down next to Hiei, since she knew it would bug him to hell. There were only two seats left: one next to Kurama, or one next to Kuwabara.
"Here, come sit next to me, Serena-koi!" Kuwabara squealed. Yes, squealed, like a little prissy, preppy, girly-girl, he squealed. Serena looked utterly horrified and muttered a drawn out 'Eeew!' under her breath. She then went over to the other empty seat, which, if you recall, is by Kurama.
"Is it ok if I sit here? 'Cuz I can stand. Anything's better then sitting next to that baka." she asked. He chukled
"No, it's perfectly fine!" He replied. She sat down after thanking him. Hey, just cuz she's cold doesn't mean she's a jerk. Well, to anyone other than Kuwabara, that is.
"It's really hard to believe you two are demons." Yusuke said.
"Well we are." Kila replied. Then came the stupid question from the stupid one, better known as the pervert.
"Are you sure?" Yusuke asked.
"No, Yusuke, we're not sure. We were just bored one day and decided to tell everyone we're demons. It's been lots of fun. You should try it sometime." Serena sarcastically retorted.
"Well, you shouldn't lie to people like that. It isn't nice." he stupidly replied. Sigh The poor misunderstood baka. The two girls turned to face each other. Then they spoke simultaneously.
"Oh, dear! Whatever shall we do?" they sarcastically and dramatically answered, the backs of their hands against their foreheads, with their eyes rolling towards the ceiling and speaking in high, feminine voices.
"And another thing, Yusuke, I'm not nice. Never have been and probably never will be." Serena calmly stated.
"You know, I have the feeling you're mocking me." he said.
"Us? Mock you? No! No! What! Nooooo!" Serena replied, a smirk played upon her lips.
"P...Perish the thought!" Kila said, miserably failing to hold back her chuckles. Her best friend knew just the right nerves to hit, and used it to her advantage. It worked for whatever mood she was trying to create, even if she'd never met the person before. 'Deductive Reasoning' she had called it. Serena just smirked.
"Whatever." Yusuke said, finally giving up. The others were lightly chuckling and/or smiling.
"So, why do you need to know if we're demons or not?" Kila asked.
"Well, as you know, we're Koenma's Spirit Detectives." Kurama started. Serena coughed and it sounded something like 'lackeys' to him. Oh well. "We're here on our latest assignment. We need to find two demonesses and bring them back to him. We wanted to know if you might have heard of them. They're known as Kirala Dragon; a dragon demoness, and Yoko Silver; a silver kitsune. Ever hear of them?"
"Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe, Maaaaaaaaybe not. Why should we tell you?" Serena stated.
"Because, it's not only for Koenma. This is more on a...personal level for me."
"Oh really? Care to elaborate?"
"No, not really."
"Well, then how am I supposed to believe you?"
"Couldn't you just take my word for it?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Just cuz. I don't feel like it. I'm mean remember? Nice-ness is not my thing. Neither is trust. I don't 'trust' unless I know someone and I'm pretty sure I don't know you."
"Please?"
"No. If you don't mind, I'd like to hear something that would convince me why I should tell you what I know if I know anything."
"Well, then what if you don't know anything?"
"We'll just have to see when we get there, now won't we?" Kurama gaped as well did the other members of the tantei. This was the first time any one had been able to hold their ground in a debate with him. And win, too. "Well? I'm waiting." she stated.
"Fine. Here goes. I used to know Silver. She was a partner of mine. I've thought she was dead for the past 15 years, but new evidence shows that she is indeed alive. She was one of my most trusted thieves and most loyal friends. If you know anything I'd appreciate it if you'd talk." Serena was silent and looked like she was thinking. "Well? I told you why this is important to me, now you tell me what you know." Still there was silence. They went on like this for a little while until Serena finally spoke up.
"As far as I know, the only person she was a partner with was the fox thief, Yoko Kurama..." More silence. "Making you..." She sighed. "How could I have not thought of this before? I mean, his name is Kurama, grrrrrrrr, I'm such a baka for not thinking of this earlier! Making you Yoko Kurama. Am I correct, or did I just ramble on for a few minutes with you not knowing what the hell I was talking about?"
"No, you're correct."
"Hmmm... You sure don't look like Yoko... Well, duh, of course you don't, but you still could be him. So how can I be sure that you are?"
"Could you take my word on it?"
"Haven't we already been through this?"
"Well, you could ask me something only the real Yoko would know..."
"Hmm...Good idea. It's nice to finally talk to someone who actually has a clue on what they're talking about."
"I agree."
"HEY!" Kila, Yusuke, and Kuwabara all shouted at the same time.
"Hay is for horses, people. Are any of you a horse?" Serena asked.
"No..." they answered.
"Ok, well now that that's understood, SHUT THE HELL UP AND LET ME TALK TO KURAMA SO WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT!" she growled. "Now where was I? Oh yes. You were saying, Kurama?"
"Actually, you were saying."
"Oh yea, that's right. Hold on a sec, let me think of a few questions..." Silence fell over the room as Serena thought. Then she spoke again. "Allright, how long have you known Silver?" she asked.
"128 ¾ years." he answered.
"Oooh, you're good. How old is Silver?"
"284 this year, if I'm not mistaken."
"No, you're absolutely right. Now, let's see here. Ok, what happened when she was 159 years old?"
"A lot of things, but the one thing that sticks out in my memory was that I made her one of my partners, along with Kuronue." It was Serena's turn to gape.
"You...you really are Yoko... But...but how? I thought you died!"
"I did. I was able to find a new body and now have a human half and a demon one. Now, if you don't mind, what do you know about Silver? You seem to have done your research." Serena chuckled.
"I can't believe you haven't figured it out yet, Yoko. It's me. I'm Silver."
Silver Youko: Ok, who did not see that coming?
Everyone: silence
Kurama: I'm pretty sure everyone did.
Silver Youko: sigh I know. But hey, it's my story and if these people don't like that they knew that was coming, tough teddy grahams on them!
