Inu-Yasha nodded. "We can take 'em. And if we do go..."

"At least we'll go out with a bang!" Yusuke finished, getting a Spirit Gun ready on the end of his finger.

~*~ Continuing...~*~

Kila gasped. 'This can't be true! Yusuke and Inu-Yasha plan to fight them, but not fail, which could mean killing or mortally wounding the other three! And if the do die in the process, Yusuke's going to use his Spirit Gun!' "No! Yusuke, Inu-Yasha, don't! I won't let you!" Kila yelled as she ran in between the two "teams" to try to stop the fighting. Bad move.

"Get out of the way, on'na! There is no reason for you to stop us!" Bakura yelled, shoving Kila out of the way and into the wall. Kila landed with a soft "Thump" on the ground, almost unconscious again.

Yami abandoned the fight and went to check on Kila. "Are you alright?" He asked, looking her over for any signs of wounds.

Kila nodded. "I'm fine. I just need you to stop the fight.....before someone gets seriously hurt."

Yami nodded and ran over to them. Yusuke had not yet fired his Spirit Gun and was about to before Rei also popped out of his bishie-ball. Rei and Yami ran into the fray and separated the two teams.

"Guys!" Rei yelled, trying to get Inu-Yasha away from Marik. "If you REALLY want to help Kila, I suggest you stop fighting and tell her what you three wanted her for."

Bakura snorted. "I don't have to," he said, acting like a little kid.

Yusuke glared at him, then got an evil grin on his face. "Oh, really? Well, last time I checked, I could make someone talk and beat the c*** outta them at the same time. It was quite successful, as well."

"I thought I said no fighting, dimwit!" Kila said, managing to get to her feet without any help. "That especially means you, Yusuke Urameshi." She grinned at his disappointed groan.

"And why shouldn't we?" Bakura growled, obviously angry.

"Because I said so, baka," Kila said, smiling. Bakura lunged at her and she dodged to the side, still smiling slightly. "Missed me, missed me, now you gotta kiss me!" Kila sang out as she ran around, Bakura hot on her heels.

"Get back here, you little fox!" Bakura yelled, chasing Kila around the room while everyone else watched with a sweatdrop.

"Alright, CHLIDREN, calm down," Rei said, emphasizing the word "Children." IT worked perfectly. They both turned to him and glared.

"What's that supposed to mean??" Kila demanded of her bishie.

"Nothing!" Rei insisted. "Nothing at all. For you, at least," Rei mumbled. He glanced at Bakura and thought he saw him grin evilly.

"Alright. I'll tell you why. It's because Kila may be a half-bishie, meaning that she has the same powers, at least some of them, as her father. We have yet to discover who her father is, though," Bakura said, glaring at Yusuke and Inu-Yasha.

"Wait a second! You mean to tell me," Yusuke said, looking at Kila, "that she is a half-bishie?!" Bakura merely nodded.

At that moment, Kenshin burst into the room, sword out and his eyes narrowed into slits. "Yusuke! Inu-Yasha! What happened here?" Kenshin asked, hurrying over to them.

"Nothing important. We'll report later," Inu-Yasha mumbled.

"Well, Miss Narina and Miss Sarana are waiting with Yahiko outside the town, guys. We should get going, that we should," Kenshin said, motioning the way out with his hand. Kila nodded and walked outside. Yusuke and Inu- Yasha followed her. Kenshin stayed for a moment. "I would suggest that you check around the borders of this town for intruders. I felt someone else around here. Another trainer. Be careful." With that, Kenshin exited.

~*~ About 20 minutes later ~*~

"FINALLY!" Narina yelled, running over and hugging Kila, who was smiling and laughing. "It took you long enough to get her back here!" She reprimanded Yusuke and Inu-Yasha. They looked away, embarrassed.

Kila laughed some more and looked around. Suddenly, her head started pounding and she knew, from recent events, that that meant that either Kuroi had en evil plan, was doing evil, or was extremely pleased or angry about something. She fell to the ground, clutching her head.

"Kila! What is it? Is it Kuroi again?" Kenshin asked, looking worried.

About at that moment, the pain became so intense that Kila fainted.

~*~ With Kuroi ~*~

"Yes! I have finally caught one of the bishies that will help me capture the world!" Kuroi said, extremely happy. He held out his ball and opened it, coming face-to-face with a very angry Kitiara. (From DragonLance, which I do not own.)

"Who has caught me??" Kitiara demanded, angry.

"I have caught you, Kitiara. My name is Kuroi Maho and I was hoping that you would help me take over the world. I will have one task for you first, though. That would be to help me kill my sister and any friends she may have," Kuroi said, stepping forward with an evil smirk on his face.

"Take over the world, huh?" Kitiara asked, looking interested. "I suppose I could help you, if you really want me to. And I would be more than happy to kill your sister. When do we start?"

Unknown to them, a shadowed figure was in the tree next to them, listening in on their conversation. The figure flitted off, having one thought in mind: 'I've got to tell the fox and the detective. They might be able to help this person, whoever it is. Perhaps it is the half-bishie that I have heard about. I will check when I see her.'
