I don't own YYH

Thank you to my only review; miyako14

Kidnapped

Tara set about washing up the breakfast dishes. The group was to leave today; in fact they were to leave in two hours. "Boys," Tara called into the living room.

"Ya?" came the reply of Kuwabara, Yusuke and Jin.

Tara chuckled as the put a plate in the dishwasher, "You should get out and go for a walk. This might very well be the last time for a good while that you can breath the fresh air."

"Ya, but we leave soon," Yusuke said.

"You have two hours," Tara said with a laugh, "That's plenty of time to go for a walk down the beach."

Touya appeared in the doorway, "Why don't you come with us then."

Tara continued doing the dishes, "I have preparations of my own I must do. After all I've lived here for several decades."

"Exactly," Kara said as she walked in from the backyard with towels in her hands. "We have to make sure that this place looks like Tara's gone on vacation. Plus Luke and Daren are going to want to bring some of their toys with them."

"Don't you have to go to your own place for that?" Touya asked.

"No," Tara and Kara said at the same time with a laugh. "Her place is as clean as it should be with two young boys living in it," Tara said with a smile.

"That and my boys have toys in both places," Kara told him, "Don't you remember that Touya."

Touya shrugged, "I guess."

Tara washed off her hands and turned around, "Plus they have the toys I bought you when you were little not too long ago."

Touya made a face, "Don't remind me."

"Alright short stuff," Tara teased as she walked by her brother, which earned her a glare. When she saw the teens lying around playing cards she said, "Alright guys, get out. Go for a walk or something."

"Ah, common Tara," Jin complained, "We do lots a walking in the Makai."

Tara raised a brow, "Coming from a wind master that's actually quite funny."

"Eh?" Jin was confused by this.

Of all people to answer him it was Luke, "You can fly."

"Even the four year old know the answer," Yusuke laughed.

Kara smiled, "Alright, Luke, Daren go pack something's. The rest of you, get out."

Kurama chuckled and stood, "Perhaps we should. We wouldn't want to have to wait to thaw out."

Hiei smirked, "Wouldn't take long."

"For you maybe," Kurama said, "The rest of us don't control fire."

"Not my problem," Hiei replied.

The group got to their feet and walked towards the door. Touya turned around before leaving, "Do you want help at all?"

Tara shook her head, "Nope, but thanks. I think we have it under control." Touya nodded and walked out the door, shutting it behind him.

Kara looked at Tara, "What do you intend to pack. We can't carry everything you know."

With a laugh Tara said, "Just a few necessities my friend."

"By a few what do you mean?"

"A few pairs of cloths and food, of course. All to fit in my small backpack."

Kara laughed lightly, "You were never one to ever carry much."

"Course not," Tara said with a smile, "Were do you think Touya got it from."

Kara smirked, "You mean his ability to wear the same cloths for a week with no problem?"

"Exact- Hey!"

Kara laughed, "You walked right into that Tara."

"Oh grr to you too," Tara said was she walked off in the direction of her room.

Daren ran past his aunt to his mother, "Mum, I want a few of the toys in the car. Can I get them please?"

Kara smiled, "Sure, just not right now. Let mummy go pack a few things first alright?"

Daren nodded, "Okay." He ran back down the hall to the bedroom where he slept.

Twenty minutes later both women walked into the living room where they put down their bags. Their bags where the size of small backpacks typically meant for a day at the park, which, amazingly, held everything they felt they needed.

"Daren," Kara called down the hall, "You wanted something from the car?"

"Yes," came Daren's voice as he ran down the hall into the living room.

Kara handed him her keys, "Go get what you wanted, but make sure you lock the car when you're done."

"Thank you," Daren said happily as he took the keys and ran out to his mother's car.

Kara thought a moment, "Do you think we should put the cars in the garage? After all people would want to steal an Aston Martin and a Ferrari."

Tara shrugged, "It'll take two seconds to do that before we leave."

"True," Kara responded.

"MAMA!" Daren screamed in a panic from outside, "MAMA!"

"Daren?!" Kara ran outside, followed quickly by Tara.

What they found was disturbing. A creature with green skin, yellow eyes and a long tail stood next to Kara's car with her eldest son firmly in his grasp. Tara's eyes narrowed, "A demon. It appears that they've found us."

Kara was too enraged to respond to her friends words, "Let go of my son! Now!"

The demon smirked, "And why would I do that?"

"Because if you don't I will personally make sure that you feel a pain so great that not even death will vanquish it," Kara growled.

This threat startled the demon greatly. In a state of fear he ran towards a free floating circler purple object, which the two females knew was a portal to the Makai. In a quick movement Tara formed an ice dagger in her hand and through it at the retreating demon, hitting him in the back of the head. The demon fell dead to the ground a foot away from the portal.

Daren got up and ran to his mother crying. Daren knew how to fight, both females had made sure to teach him, but the problem is that he did not grow up in a world where it was instinct to fight when your life is in danger. He had grown up in the relatively peaceful world of the humans.

Kara hugged her son closely, "It's alright baby, it's alright. You're safe now."

"That gate has to get closed," Tara said.

"How do you intend to do that?" Kara asked.

"Not sure," Tara admitted, "We'd better get the guys back."

Kara nodded, "Daren, I have to let go of you for a moment." Daren refused to be let go however.

"It's alright. I can do it on my own," Tara told her. A wave of energy rose from the ground and encircled her. Her hair became waist length and was now dark blue while her eyes became a light blue. Her human illusion was now dropped.

At that precise moment a fireball soared through the portal and hit Tara's car, blowing the car into the air as its fuel tank exploded. Kara picked her son up and ran to the door, where Luke now stood in shock, as the airborne car came crashing down on top of her own, causing a larger explosion.

Tara had not moved however, but she remained unscathed since she had put up a defensive barrier around herself after she saw Kara retreat. The demon that had created the fireball came though the portal. He had pail skin and light red hair.

vvvvv

"Did you guys feel that?" Kuwabara asked as a power wrapped around him.

"Ya," Yusuke said in surprise, "What's it coming from."

Touya recognized the power waves and panicked, "Tara!" He ran down the beach quickly.

"Ai, she'd never let 'er power fly if nothing was wrong," Jin quickly said before running after his friend.

vvvvv

Several demons cloaked in black emerged from the portal. Tara scowled, "Assassins."

The fire demon smirked, "Of course. Did you expect any less?"

"Not really," Tara growled angrily.

"The big boss has big plans for you two," the fire demon said as his smirk deepened.

"Boys stay here, don't move," Kara whispered to her sons before standing. "You can tell your boss that we're not interested and that he will never get us."

The fire demon laughed, "Oh he will." With a snap of his fingers the assassins jumped into action with no hesitation.

Kara quickly dropped her illusion revealing a fair skinned maiden with very light blue hair and eyes. She formed an ice staff and began defending herself.

Tara roundhouse kicked the first demon to attempt to attack her, causing him to hit the pavement roughly. In a quick movement a sword of ice was summoned to her right hand (unlike Touya's it looks like and actual sword, only made of ice) where upon she promptly killed another demon.

One of the assassins went after the two boys. Somehow Daren managed to put his right hand out and, with a jet of energy, freeze the demon. He was utterly surprised, but pleased with himself.

Tara threw her sword at a demon, who had just jumped down from the roof landing in front of the un-expecting children. The demon fell dead with the sword planted into the side of his ribcage.

Kara smashed her staff against a demons head before hitting another in much the same fashion. Her attention was turned to the burning cars as she saw the fire demon jump onto of it. She hit another demon before looking back up to see him rip a pipe out from Tara's car (which was upside down on Kara's).

She saw him turn his attention to her friend, "Tara look out!!"

It was too late however. The pipe smacked into the side of Tara's head, causing her to spin slightly and fall to the ground unconscious.

"Tara!" Kara yelled in a panic. Her attention was caught as her boys yelled for help as another demon came after them. To her relief a shuriken made of ice hit his temple.

The fire demon cursed, "Retreat. The damn Shinobi and Spirit Detectives are here."

What was left of the assassins, all of two, exited in the same fashion that they entered. The fire demon grabbed Tara just as Touya and Jin came up the lawn, "Later." He jumped though the portal with the unconscious form of Tara slung over his shoulder.

The portal closed right behind him.

Uh oh. Tara's been kidnapped and the group has no way of making a quick pursuit. What's going to happen to her? How is the group going to act?

Find out in the next chapter.

I need review to update.
