Please Review!!!

Chapter 7: Into the Fortress

Yusuke followed what ever energy source of Luci's that he could sense. Along with Kurama and Kuwabara, he went through a forest running rapidly. Suddenly all could hear Kuwabara trip. "Quit being so clumsy," Yusuke said. He then noticed a foot away was Luci's watch. "This is Luci's. She's been this way. Still it would have been much easier finding her if we had Hiei. We could use his Jagan to find her. Oh well, that's just too bad." He walked along a little longer and suddenly jumped into a tree. "I can feel her close. Luce! Luci! You're here somewhere!"

"That's Hiei," Kurama said suddenly pointing in his direction.

"Why that little punk, kidnapping your sis like that, why I oughtta—I told you he was no good! Urameshi, you need to beat him into pulp—if I don't get to him before you." Kurama coughed at the thought.

"Why is—how did—never mind, we need to keep up and keep going." Yusuke used to spirit energy to make him go as if he were flying from tree to tree with the two others following.

They continued on until they came to a gate. It was big, tall, and black.

"Where's the button?" Kuwabara asked.

"What button?" said Yusuke.

"Well, anyone could tell you! The one that opens the gate. In cartoons there's a button that always works. They hide it under a mat sometimes."

"Really?" Kurama asked. "I would think that there would be a trap door rather than a button."

"He's right about that, Kuwabara," Yusuke said laughing. "Well, we'd better find a way in before Kuwabara does anything stupid, oh wait, everything he does is stupid." (Big Grin).

"Hey... that's not funny Urameshi, you better shut it before I beat YOU into pulp."

"Now that's something I'd like to see," Yusuke said. "How do we get in this thing?"

"Well it seems that whoever doing this—that shrimp—wants to keep us out," Kuwabara said.

"I'm not so sure about that," Kurama said. "First, why would Hiei care so much about kidnapping a human girl, especially if it was Yusuke's sister. I doubt he's trying to get any kind of revenge; he no longer cares for revenge."

Then the gate began to open slowly. "Look, guys, it's opening." Kuwabara said.

"Well isn't that a surprise," Yusuke said sarcastically, "I wouldn't have believed it without Kuwabara telling me. Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

The trio marched into the gate and entered a mansion. When they entered the door slowly closed. "This is kinda spooky," Kuwabara said.

"Well, I suppose you're getting the tickle feeling again. What wrong, Kurama?"

Kurama was staring at a—camera. Someone was watching them. Then out of a speaker blazed, "I will do you a deal. You will first go through a maze, and if you survive, you must fight my warriors. After that you can have the girl back."

"I don't like this feeling, Urameshi," said Kuwabara. "There's probably some trap."

"I suppose we don't have much other choice," said Kurama.

"Why don't you just come out and face me like a man?" Yusuke shouted.

A screen dropped down from the ceiling. A face of a fat man appeared on it. "I am here to negotiate the return of the girl," the man spoke.
