Krystal Fox: Boy I never thought that this story would continue this long. 20 chapters! Wow!
I do not own any of Yu Yu Hakusho at all.
Chapter 21 Answers to Questions
Yusuke was told that someone wanted to speak with him outside of the school grounds about something.
Grumbling he went out of the school grounds only to have Kuwabara come running up behind him.
"Hey Urameshi are you trying to skip class again?"
"No dunce I have to meet someone out here who doesn't want to talk to me in the office." He looked around for whoever it might have been.
Kuwabara tapped him on the shoulder, "Urameshi do you sense it? There are two strong demons nearby. And they seem very dangerous."
That's an understatement Kurone thought as he heard them around the corner. I am furious cause someone stole my daughter and my best friend's lady.
Yuusuke smiled, "finally something to do besides school work, destroy demons!"
He went sprinting after Kuwabara only to run into the small figure of Hiei.
"Hn, Baka, you are stupid to go charging at such a powerful pair of demons so recklessly especially when there is a human with them." He stated walking in the direction of the demons.
"WHAT!" Yuusuke said sounding upset, "Life isn't fair." he groaned and walked after the shorter fire apparition.
When they came around the corner they found a strange sight, a short dark haired woman was standing between a pair of tall men one with black hair and the other silver, both were glaring at them.
"Excuse me, are you Yuusuke Urameshi?" dark asked anxious to get this over with.
"yes so?" He said tensely.
"well, I am here to ask what you know about demon world." She bluntly stated.
"How do you know…" He started to ask. Kuwabara looked like he was going to go crazy with not attacking the pair.
"about demon realm. Well it would seem obvious sense I am traveling with two demons." She said motioning to the men on either side of her.
"Okay I am confused, if you know and you're not scared ,you're not one of those physco humans who is in the black market and here to get rich on this are you?" He asked confused. Hiei quirked an eyebrow at the group it was strange as it was, even to him.
"Alright then you'll have to hear the entire story." she said sitting onto the grass.
Kurone walked over to Yuusuke and putting a hand around his throat said, "And if you call my wife physco one more time I will rip your voice box out." He warned setting him back down.
Yuusuke gulped and sat down himself. Hiei still stood and Kuwabara cautiously sat down too.
Dark began her tale from the very beginning, "This all began when My friend Light and I were taking a walk for fresh air….."
The story slowly came out and Yuusuke was amazed by all this. Kuwabara's mouth dropped.
Hiei then asked, "If you got into the human world so easily how come we never noticed, even so far away we would have know if such powerful demons entered this world."
"I don't know that answer," Dark said, "But I was hoping since you guys have dealings with demons you could help me find my daughter and friend."
Kuwabara and his honor code said, "Of course we shall set out at once so save these poor ladies in distress."
(Kuwabara's code is not to hit or fight with a girl, while he also can't stand to see a girl hurt, so he will fight against those who do it)
Everyone sweat dropped at his strange antics.
Yuusuke said, " I think your best shot is to go and speak with Koenma to see what he knows about this, but we do know who Karasu is but we don't know who Yomi is. So I will just have to get a hold of him." He got out a little radio communicator and then pressed a button and said, "OH TODDLER, hey we have some humans who know about demons who want to talk to you. Better send a transport right now bye.."
Just as a toddler face came into view Yuusuke shut off the comminicator. He laughed, "Now the little guy won't have any choice but to do it or he cant' take the chance that his daddy finds out humans know about demons besides out little group.
Sure enough minutes later a girl with blue hair showed up and said, "Alright Yusuke who are the people who need to go to Koenma's?"
He pointed to the trio, and she mouth dropped, then said, "It's you, you're…you're…" She said pointing at Kurama.
"I'm who?" He asked knowing perfectly well who she was speaking about.
"Oh…never mind. Let's go." She opened a portal and said, "let's go." She motioned them through and everyone went through.
Kuwabara and Yusuke were interested about the end results. Hiei had nothing else to do.
Upon arrival Kurone growled he didn't like this place. Kurama didn't like it either.
Koenma turned in his chair, he was in a teenager like form but had a pacifer in his mouth. "I think you lost your intelligent look with the pacifier." Kurama stated.
Yusuke commented, "that's what I told him."
"Yusuke, be quiet." he ordered the boy. Turning to these two demons and human in front of him heard their tale again and then sat there typing on his computer.
"Let's see, I found it. Yomi is the third ruler of Makia and Karasu it seems has escaped death and returned joining forces with Yomi at his palace in Makia….and you say they captured your little daughter and fried. Well from what I can see they both hold the descriptions of the priestess of time."
"The what" Kurone and Kurama said at the same time.
"The Priestess of time. This priestess has the power to control time, reverse it, stop it, and all the while walk from everywhere and change things that need to be changed. It seems that these two demons want to usurp the priestesses powers from her." He said thinking. "But that would mean that one of your two has immortal blood……" He mumbled off to himself too low for anyone to hear.
"Any what does immortal blood mean?" Dark asked getting frustrated.
"It means that whichever female has this blood can access powers stronger than any S-class demons by the times of 100. That is a lot of power. But if these creeps get this power then…" He trailed off
"Then What?" Youko growled out.
"Then she dies, never to have her soul enter this realm but it will travel across times and never be able to be caught." He said softly.
There was a silence in the room. One of the girls was going to die forever if they didn't get them out of there.
Koenma turned to Yusuke and said, "I give you this mission Yusuke, you must go and help get these two girls to a safe place so that we can keep them safe and find out which one of them is the one. But it could take months…" He was cut off by Dark
"We don't have months. My friend Light has a rare condition that is slowly killing her. She probably will only last a month or two more. We have to find her in weeks, NOT months.' she said quite firmly.
"Of course this must be done. Now onto the subject on how you tow demons got through the realms to the human realm without us noticing. How did you do it and who are you really?" koenma asked curiously.
Hiei perked up at this, this is what he had waited for for so long. He wanted to know this himself but didn't want to ask.
"If you really want to know you better not call the guards or I will kill them." Youko stated calmly.
Koenma sweat dropped. "Of course but it doesn't meant I won't freak out." Boton covered her mouth and snickered. He glared at her she just laughed more. He sighed "go on"
Youko slowly let his form change and then there were many gasps and Kurone did the same.
"It's Youko Kurama and Kurone!" Boton gasped out.
Silence filled the room again. Koenma looked pale then sighed, "I made a promise."
"Let's find those girls," Yusuke said turning to leave the room.
As they left they passed a fireplace and Dark picked up a firepoker and prepared it as her weapon and Kurone raised an eyerow.
"It's not for you this time dear this is for some b who stole away my friend and child."
He nodded thinking, looks like Yomi and Karasu don't know that they have invoked the wrath of a mother, something someone should never invoke. It's worse than a lover's anger.
Krystal Fox: Well, it is here I promised I would update soon after wards I just had to have a break and talk to a good friend who make me even more cheery while I watched one of my movie marathons that I started this morning. (The LOTR special edition. It takes a long time to watch all of them.)
