Chapter 5: After School

Kichi walked into her room, Keiko and Yukina behind her. They had already told Hisa of their plans and the dark haired woman only smiled and said she's show Keiko, Yukina and Kuwabara around town since they won't be going. Kuwabara had no objections since he was to busy singing and thinking about his lovely afternoon with his precious Yukina.

Hiei sat on the windowsill in the boys' room, eyes closed, bandana off, and Jagan opened, searching for the four students. It wasn't long before he found them. He memorized the area in which they lived and shut his Jagan. He tied his head band around his forehead and stood up. He walked out in to the room and stared at everyone. Kichi noticed him and smiled slightly.

"You find 'em?"

"Hn." Hiei turned and walked towards the door.

"I take that as a yes…" Kichi sighed, "Come on guys! Let's go! Later mom!" She called back.

"Bye."

Yusuke and Kurama followed Kichi out of the door, Kurama closing it behind him. Hiei jumped into a tree and the three other detectives followed him. They flitted from tree to tree for a couple minutes before reaching a dead end. The houses were in a circle so the only way for a car to get out was to turn around.

"Kitsune." Hiei said, looking to Kurama. "There…" He pointed to a house. "She's there." Kurama nodded to Hiei and jumped into Hirina's vast backyard. There were a lot of trees there…

Hiei continued on his trek even longer until they reached their next destination, Gopan. "Detective…" He pointed out the correct house left immediately with Kichi. They made it to the next house quickly and Kichi bid Hiei farewell as he pointed to the house she needed to go to. Hiei turned back around and went to the lash house, Kemiko's.

----------

Kurama sat in a tree, watching Hirina as she sat outside. She was talking on the phone to, who he had guessed was Kemiko. She soon snapped at someone in the house and continued to talk on the phone. It wasn't long before Hirina hung up the phone and stormed in the house. Kurama moved quickly and quietly in the house behind her, hiding behind a pile of clothes in the corner. He saw Hirina snap at a girl, not to much taller then her, but obviously older.

Hirina argued with the girl over the computer. Kurama looked at the screen and saw an AIM page up. And judging by the screen name of the other writer, it was Kemiko.

"What do you need it for! You were just talking to her!" The older girl yelled.

"SO! You'd get to talk to her too if you would just take the damn phone!" Hirina retorted.

"Why don't you buzz off!"

"JUST GET OFF THE DAMN COMPUTER!"

"I WILL WHEN I WANT TO!"

"WOULD YOU TWO SHUT UP!"

All head snapped towards another girl. She seemed older than Hirina yet younger than the other girl. Kurama could tell that she was pissed.

"I can't watch TV with you dumb asses yelling like that!"

Hirina disregarded the new girl and turned back to her previous pray. "Akina! Just. Get. OFF!"

The girl, now known as Akina, sighed. "Fine," She was typing something that looked close to 'I have to go now, Hirina's biting my ass off' and scowled. "I'm not in the mood for this." Akina stood abruptly, knocking the chair over and stormed out, slamming the door behind her.

"Excuse you!" The other girl screamed, who was pushed when Akina stormed by.

"SCREW YOU LEIKO!" Akina screamed through the door.

Kurama watched in shock. This family was… interesting… Things might be loud around here for a looong time… Kurama snuck out of the house, effectively getting outside and back into the tree by the window to watch the girl a little more. As Kurama sat there, one question pooped into his mind.

What kind of demon was she?

----------

Yusuke stared through Gopan's window, watching the boy draw. Yusuke scoffed, "Why'd I have to get the boring dude?" He stared… and stared… and stared… It wasn't long before something caught his eye. It looked like a shadow. Normally it wouldn't have been of any concern, but Gopan was the only one in the room… and he wasn't moving, unlike that shadow.

Yusuke moved up to the window a little more and the shadow seemed to look directly at him before disappearing. Yusuke frowned a little but sat back in his tree. This would prove to be more interesting than he thought.

----------

Kichi stared into the window of Kiada's room. Nothing was happening so she lay back on the tree branch she was resting in. It wasn't long before a force knocked her out of her tree. Kichi stood up quickly, as alert as ever, looking for who or what did it. What she saw made her wince.

A woman was in front of her, head barely connected to her shoulder, and an endless flow of blood pooled around her feet as she stared with hateful eyes at Kichi. The woman opened her mouth, blood spilling from her mouth, "Stay away…"

"Stay away from what?" Kichi asked, eyes narrowing. She stared at the woman.

"Stay away…"

"Stay away from what, dammit!" Kichi had already lost all of her patients and was ready to slap the shit out of this woman. The woman's mouth opened once more and more blood pour out and she disappeared. Kichi blinked and frowned. "I think this mission just got more dangerous…"

----------

Hiei sat in the big tree a couple of houses away from Kemiko's house and watched her through his Jagan eye. The girl was lying on her bed, drawing. It wasn't long before she stopped and got up. She went to the kitchen and got the trash, took outside, threw it away, and walked back in. She jumped back on her bed and watched TV. She seemed very restless. She just would not stay still. It wasn't long before she just got up and went into another room.

Hiei used his lovely eye to see what she was up to. The girl was on the computer. Hiei closed his eyes to rest for a while. Nothing was happening. Hiei watched the girl start listening to music. He didn't know what song it was, but he read the title on the computer, "Slow Wind" by R. Kelly. (I love this song!) He had to admit, the song calmed his nerve a bit. But his calm demeanor was shattered when he saw that same terrible creature he saw at school that was appeared behind her once again. The creature, however, wasn't looking at her, but directly at him.

Its head twitched violently. Its foaming mouth disturbed Hiei greatly. It started to growl and then disappeared. Hiei blinked once. He got up and put up a protective barrier around Kemiko. This was interesting.

----------

Back at Hisa's house, the four kids reported to the rest. Kurama went first.

"Hirina's house is hectic. They seem to argue a lot. Nothing seemed out of place except a peculiar shadow… I feel it was the same creature we saw today…"

"Hey! I saw one too!" Yusuke chided. "It was looking at me and disappeared."

"Hn. The actually creature was there for me." Hiei said. "And it didn't look friendly…"

"Well, while you sons of bitches only saw shadows, I got attacked by the damn thing." Kichi scoffed. That caught everyone's attention.

"What did it do?" Yusuke asked.

"It told me to stay away. It wouldn't tell me to stay away from what, just… stay away…"

"I feel it meant the children. It wants us to stay away from them." Kurama stated.

"Do you think we should tell Koenma about this?" Keiko asked.

"Yes… we should…"

"Detective." Hiei said, looking at Yusuke. "You have the communicator right?"

"Yep!" He pulled it out and flipped it open and contacted Koenma.

"What is it Yusuke?" Koenma asked.

"It seems as if the mission just got harder." He said. Koenma only blinked in confusion. "There are undead creatures following them. We don't know what do about them."

"Hm…" Koenma's face changed to that of a thinking one. He they then saw the light bulb flash over his head. "Bring me a DNA sample of all four of them. From there I will be able to determine who their parents were and what they did. I can also tell you what type of demons they are. And if the mission danger level increases too much, just let me know and I'll take Keiko and Yukina home. Is that alright?"

Before Yusuke, Kuwabara, or even Hiei could respond, Yukina beat them to it. "No, I want to stay and help anyway I can."

"Me too." Keiko said. The boys stare at their look of determination and decided not to comment. Koenma nodded. "Very well. But I will take you out if I feel that you can't help anymore. Understood?"

Both girls looked at each other and nodded. "Good. Have a wonderful night then." With that said, Koenma gave a cheesy grin and cut the connection.

Everyone was silent.

"Anyone up for pizza?" Yusuke asked. His response… sweat drops
