June 19th: Hey Guys! Happy Father's Day. This will be my last update for the summer because I will be at camp. I would like to thank my good friend Shimmering Silver because I give her a little sneak peek at the upcoming chapter, and she lets me know if I need a lil bit more of this a lil bit more of that, if it's funny or not, if she doesn't understand anything and yeah.
And on with the story...
Yusuke's P.O.V
After riding behind Botan's oar, we rose through the clouds. I saw two rivers combining into one river.
"Hey Botan, is that the River Styx?"
"Yes it is. How did you know that was the river?"
"You said you were the pilot of River Styx right?"
Botan nodded her head. "I'm surprised you remember."
"I'm not dumb. I hear fine. I just choose not to listen to the person. Anyway, I don't see any other rivers so I just put two and two together."
Botan didn't say anything because we had arrived.
'It's huge,' I thought, 'It's like three schools put together.'
I started thinking how this Koenma person would look.
'Maybe he's exactly like King Enma.'
I started to panic a tiny bit. Botan clicked a button on an intercom.
"Botan here. I have a new arrival here with me."
The doors opened up for us. I panicked even more. When I looked inside I was really surprised. There were ogres in various colors carrying stacks of papers, and making phone calls. It looked like an office.
"Yusuke follow me please," Botan told me.
I followed Botan through the chaotic office building until we got to a room. Botan knocked on the door, went in and motioned me to follow her. When I got in Botan bowed respectfully.
"I brought Yusuke Urameshi like you requested Koenma, sir."
I looked all over the room
"Hey Botan where's the Koenma guy?"
Normal P.O.V
"Hey down here,"
Yusuke looked downward and saw a toddler with brown hair and brown eyes. He was dressed in a royal blue shirt, yellowish brown pants with a red sash around the shirt with a matching royal blue turban/hat. There was a Jr. stamped on his forehead and he had a light blue pacifier in his mouth. Yusuke bursted out laughing.
"Okay…Okay…Botan, seriously where is he? Where's Koenma?"
"Yusuke, this is Koenma," replied Botan
"Botan are you serious? Th…Th…This toddler who probably isn't even potty trained is Koenma? You gotta be kidding me!"
Botan hit Yusuke on the side of the head, right after he burst out laughing again.
"YUSUKE I CANT BELIEVE YOU WOULD SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" Botan yelled, she turned to Koenma, "Koenma, sir I'm sure he didn't mean it," she said apologetically.
"Botan it's quite alright," replied Koenma in a clam voice, "Yusuke I am actually quite several thousands years old. In addition to knowing the secrets of the Universe, I can assure you that I am also quite potty trained."
Yusuke calmed down. "Are you serious? This is the ruler of spirit world? I was expecting someone meaner, scarier and defiantly taller."
"You mean someone like King Enma?"
"Well yeah. You know him?"
"Actually King Enma is the ruler of the Spirit World and he's my father. I'm just prince of Spirit World."
"KING ENMA'S YOUR FATHER!" asked a very surprised Yusuke.
"Yes. Now, time for business. Do you know why you're here?"
Yusuke nodded his head. "Yeah, for an ordeal right?"
"Right. And here is your ordeal," Koenma took out a golden egg from behind his back, "This is a spirit egg. This will determine whether or not you should come back to life. You will keep this with you 24/7. It will feed off of your energy. If you do good, and good energy comes from you, a good spirit beast will hatch. If you do bad, and negative energy comes from you, a bad spirit beast will hatch and eat you and you won't be able to come back to life. The choice is yours Yusuke." Yusuke gulped and reached his hand out and took the egg. "Now you have to let people know that you're coming back. But you can only let certain people know."
"And they are?"
"The people who care about you the most. You can only let four people know too."
"What do I tell them?"
"To not continue with the ceremony. Duh."
"Oh…who are the people I know that I should tell?"
"I thought you would know. You really are hopeless, aren't you?"
"Hey!"
"They are surprisingly, Kuwabara, your mother, Kayko and Avigayil. Now go let them know."
"But-"
"Go."
"But-"
"Go."
"But-"
"Go."
"But-"
"But nothing. Now go!"
"Stupid toddler telling me what to do," mumbled Yusuke.
"What was that Yusuke?"
"Uh…nothing. Nothing at all."
"That's what I thought."
In Kayko's room
"Wow, this room hasn't changed much over the years. So how does this thing work?" asked Yusuke.
"You can only contact them when they're asleep. People are linked to Spirit World when they are sleeping. You go right next to them and touch them. This allows you to enter their dream, and you start talking," answered Botan.
"Sounds easy enough," Yusuke went up to Kayko's bed and looked down at her, "Hey she's crying."
In Kayko's Dream Kayko's P.O.V
I was running and I was in my pajamas. I was running after Yusuke and calling his name. I was crying. Yusuke stopped, turned around and faced me.
"Kayko…I'm coming back…wait for me."
"I will Yusuke."
"Good, now don't cry. I hate it when you cry."
Yusuke then wiped my tears away, turned around and left.
Normal P.O.V
Yusuke wiped a tear coming down Kayko's face and left to let Kuwabara, his mother and his sister know that he's coming back or at least he'll try. Kayko shot right up in bed.
"Was that a dream?" Kayko asked herself.
She felt her cheek. There were no tears as if someone wiped them away.
"Yusuke…"
Next day/ Morning.
Kayko rushed into the Urameshi apartment.
"Hey Kayko, what up?" greeted Avi as she let her best friend Kayko into the apartment.
"Atsuko, Avigayil, did either one of you have a dream about Yusuke last night?" asked Kayko.
"Yeah, I had a dream about him," said Atsuko, "Yusuke was in this place and there were different color ogres all over the place and he started beating them up."
Avi laughed. "That definitely seems like a thing Yusuke would do. Hey Kayko, can you wait for me one more minute while I find my school bag?"
"You're going to school?"
"Yeah, I am. But I might fall asleep during class 'cause I didn't get a lot of sleep," said Avi picking up her bag, which was right next to the front door.
On the way to School
"So, what was your dream about?" asked Avi.
"Well…Yusuke told me to wait for him. He said he was coming back."
"Weird, I had a similar dream."
"You think it means something?" asked Kayko when they reached the school gate.
"Nah. Oh and if I do fall asleep can you continue taking notes for me and wake me up around eleven. I need to get to the club."
"Sure, I'm glad you're coming to school."
"Yeah…yeah…whatever," said Avi giving Kayko a hug.
"If only you would wear a skirt," sighed Kayko.
"No way Kayko would I ever be caught dead wearing a skirt. Besides, I'm wearing Yusuke's uniform today."
"You miss him, don't you?"
"You have no idea how much," said Avi walking into school with Kayko.
Floating above the two girls
"Damn it, Botan. They don't believe me. My mom was drunk so I couldn't reach her and I couldn't find Kuwabara. Is there any other way I can contact them?" asked Yusuke.
"Actually…yes. You can be put into someone's body, but it's a special person whose body you can use and I don't think you will like the person."
"I'll be the judge of that."
"It's…Kuwabara."
"What! No way! Isn't there someone else?"
'Actually his sister might be able to do it since she might be able to sense spirits like Kuwabara. But he may not like that even more,' thought Botan, "No, sorry Yusuke. There isn't."
"Fine, sometime after school."
Sometime after school
Kuwabara was hanging out with his group of friends walking home from school. Yusuke touched Kuwabara. Kuwabara got the shivers.
"What is it Kuwabara?" asked one of the boys.
"Is it a spirit?" asked another.
"Spirit?" asked the first boy.
"Yeah, Kuwabara can sense spirits," informed the second boy to the first.
"Is it the old lady with a sword who wanted to kill you?" asked another boy.
"No, it's a different spirit. I never sensed this one before," answered Kuwabara, "Oh well forget about it. Let's go."
"Alright Yusuke, I'm going to put a little spell on Kuwabara so you can go into him. I will give you one hour to find Kayko and give her the message," said Botan.
"One hour? That's more than enough time," said Yusuke cockily.
"Okay here we go," Botan's hand started to glow, "Okay get into his body quick."
Yusuke flew into Kuwabara's body.
"Hey, check me out. I'm in Kuwabara's body," said Yusuke/Kuwabara.
"Hey Kuwabara, you okay man?" asked one of his friends.
"Out of my way losers," said Kuwabara/Yusuke.
'Maybe I should start looking for Kayko at her family's ramen restaurant,' thought Yusuke. Yusuke/Kuwabara took off towards the restaurant.
"Mr. and Mrs. Yukimura, where's Kayko?" demanded Kuwabara/Yusuke.
"Excuse me young man but who exactly are you?" asked Mr. Yukimura.
"It's me Yusuke."
"For information young man, Yusuke died two days ago. I would appreciate it if you respect that fact," said Mrs. Yukimura.
"But, I'm serious it's really me, Yusuke."
"That's it young man. I'm throwing you out," roared Mr. Yukimura.
'That hurt,' thought Yusuke getting off his butt, 'Now if I was a girl, where would I go?'
"Hey Kuwabara, I need to pay you back," said a boy stepping out from an alley way. Other boys stepped out too and encircled Kuwabara/Yusuke.
"Don't you people understand? I don't have time for this!"
Everyone started fighting.
After fifty minutes of searching for Kayko and getting into fights
"Damn, how many fights does Kuwabara start?" muttered Yusuke/Kuwabara.
"Hey, those are some of Kayko's friends," said Yusuke to himself after seeing two girls step out of a store.
"Hey do you guys know where Kayko is?" asked Kuwabara/Yusuke to the two girls.
The girls screamed and ran away.
"What?" asked Kuwabara/Yusuke. He looked into a shop window and saw his reflection. He was scratched and bruised up all over his face.
"Hey thanks for waiting…you…guys?" said Kayko stepping out of the store.
'I just can't walk up to her like this. Wait. I got it,' thought Yusuke. Kuwabara/Yusuke grabbed Kayko's breasts from behind. "Hey Kayko nice uniform," said Kuwabara/Yusuke.
"YUSUKE YOU JERK," yelled Kayko as she slapped Kuwabara/Yusuke, "Oh I'm so sorry. I thought you were someone else," said Kayko looking down and seeing Kuwabara.
"No Kayko you're right. I'm Yusuke."
"Stop playing games. Is that really you?"
"Yeah it is, I'm just borrowing someone else's body. Now I need to give you my message because I only have one minute left before I give this oaf his body back, so…take care of my body and tell my mom to stop the funeral because I'm coming back. Okay? So just wait for me and believe."
"Oh Yusuke, I knew it was you since the first moment you spoke. And it's not because of your stupid gags, and I'll wait. I'll wait forever if I have to."
"Whoa…let's not get mushy right now," said Kuwabara/Yusuke receiving a hug from Kayko, "Kayko, I have to leave now."
Up in the air
"Yusuke, you did a great job," commented Botan.
"That oaf actually served a purpose. You think it'll work? What I mean is, do you think she'll take care of my body?" asked Yusuke.
"Of course, Yusuke. She likes you and she'll let Avigayil know and the two of them will take care of your body."
"Yeah, you're right. Wait…whoa Kayko does not like me."
"Right, sure Yusuke, Whatever you say."
With Kayko
"Huh? Where am I," asked Kuwabara. He looked down and hugged Kayko harder. Kayko realized this and slapped Kuwabara.
"Sorry," called Kayko after running in the direction to the Urameshi apartment.
"It's okay. I probably deserved it," Kuwabara called back, "What are you looking at?" he yelled to the people watching him.
"Atsuko! Atsuko!" yelled Kayko.
Atsuko opened the door and was dressed in a black kimono.
"Oh Kayko, it's Yusuke. I opened the coffin to slap him again for leaving me and his face has a tiny bit of color and he's warm."
"He's coming back."
The two women cried tears of joy while hugging.
"Hey, what's going on here?" asked Avi walking up to her apartment sweating.
"It's Yusuke. He's warm and has some color in his cheeks," answered her mother.
"He's coming back Avigayil. He's coming back," said Kayko.
Avi just smiled a huge smile for the first time, since Yusuke died, which was two days ago. She joined the two women on the ground outside and hugged them tightly.
"Thank you Yusuke for keeping your word," whispered Avi, "Thank you."
"Your welcome Avigayil," whispered Yusuke right next to Avigayil.
Avi just lifted her head, like she sensed something.
"Avigayil are you okay?" asked Kayko concerned.
"I'm fine Kayko."
"Botan what's the deal? It was like Avigayil knew I was there and she heard me," asked Yusuke.
"I think she can sense you. Rather, she knows you're there and she can hear you slightly too, I think. You have a very special sister."
"Yeah, I know," Yusuke answered looking proudly down at his twin sister.
P.S: I'm graduating tomorrow. Hello High School. Review Please.
Luv ya
Avigayil Urameshi
