Chapter 6

Spirit World

Blood was standing in the middle of Koenma's office, waiting for the toddler to show up. He was getting impatient. He had been waiting there for at least half an hour. He'd much rather be testing the limits of Syd's patience. Or Kori's. Or anyone else's other than his own.

Koenma decided to make his appearance. "Sorry about the wait." the toddler prince said.

"You'd better be." Blood growled.

Koenma ignored the comment. "You are joining Team Urameshi."

"Why?"

"Because, I can have someone keep an eye on you, reduce my paperwork and prevent you from stealing things from the Spirit World vaults all in the same way." Koenma answered.

Blood rolled his eyes. Then he decided to ask a question. "Are Syd and Kori on that team?"

"I don't think I should answer that. You can ask them later." Koenma answered, thinking about what Kori and Syd could and would do to him if he answered the question, knowing that they were not fond of the person who asked the question.

"Damn." Blood said. "Can I go now?"

"Oh, right." Koenma said. "Tarro!"

Tarro walked into the office. "What?" the blue haired boy said, irritably. He had been trying to sleep.

"Take Blood home." Koenma commanded.

Tarro glared. "That's IT?" he demanded. Koenma nodded. "Now I can see why Syd doesn't like being called into your office." He opened a portal and shoved Blood through its sparkley blackness. Tarro followed after sending another glare in Koenma's direction.

Syd and Kurama's House

A black lab (why black lab? cuz i like black labs. actually i like dogs in general but that aint the point here) was running around outside. It was being closely watched by Kurama as it chased Ferdinand around the yard.

Kori just watched until she heard a noise in the kitchen. She walked into the kitchen to see Blood and Tarro laying on the floor, one on top of the other. She laughed, which was not a great idea.

Blood jumped up and ran to Kori. "Hello, beautiful."

Hiei ran into the kitchen next, followed by Kurama, Ferdinand and the dog. Hiei had drawn his katana and looked about ready to kill Blood for being anywhere near Kori. Blood, noticing this, backed off.

The redhead looked around the room. "Where's the other beautiful girl?"

Both the dog's eye and Kurama's eye started to twitch. "She's around here somewhere." Kurama said.

"When did you get a dog?" Blood asked. He walked closer to the lab, who growled in the way that Syd would. "Syd is a dog demon, isn't she?" He tried to pet the dog, but the lab bit him instead. "That proves that theory." He wiped some of the blood the bite had drawn off his hand.

The dog stepped behind Kurama and transformed into the 'missing' girl. Syd stayed where she was after returning to her usual form. Ferdinand jumped onto her shoulder from the counter. She absently petted her 'pet.'

Kori was behind Hiei, just to be out of the direct path of Blood's pervertedness.

Keiko and Yusuke walked in. They had left to do grocery shopping for Yusuke's mother, if you could call someone with parenting skills that bad a mother, and Kurama, who had asked them so he could make sure didn't get hit by a car while playing outside again.

TWO MONTHS AGO

Syd was running around in her black lab form. She was chasing squirrels like she often did (this was around the time syd met ferdinand but hadn't yet named him). Kurama was inside reading the newspaper (newspaper. YUCK!).

About ten minutes after he had allowed Syd tom play outside after an hour of arguing, Kurama heard a rather loud 'yelp!'. He ran outside to see what had caused it and saw a black lab laying on the ground. And it wasn't just ANY black lab, it was Syd.

It looked like she was dead or seriously injured. Kurama went with the injured option for two reasons. One: he didn't want to think Syd was dead again. And two: he could hear a faint wimpering from the dog. He immediatly ran to Syd's side and picked her up. she had a few broken ribs. He told anyone that asked, namely the driver of the car that hit syd, which just so happened to be driven by the same guy that hit and killed Yusuke (that guy has serious issues, doesn't he?), that he was taking her to the vet.

When Syd woke up the next morning, she was in Spirit World and fully healed. She looked around the room she was in and saw a not-so-happy Kurama. He looked about ready to strangle her. Not that it was the first time she'd done something stupid, but because this time she had gotten hit by a car and almost came across her second death. If it hadn't been for Koenma walking intot the room, he might have.

Yusuke set the groceries on the table as Kurama thanked him and Keiko. He mumbled a "whatever." He also noticed that Blood was moving closer to Keiko, so he stopped that before Blood got close enough to touch her.

"So, why did Koenma summon you?" Syd asked, sitting at the table. She dragged Kurama with her to hopefully keep Blood away from her.

"He told me that I had to join Team Urameshi." Blood stated simply. Syd was going to make a face, but caught herself. She didn't want Blood to figure out that she was on the team that he mentioned. Kori did the same. "Are you and your friend on the team?"

"No." Syd said, quickly. Blood didn't notice that she answered a little too quickly.

"Damn. The only reason I joined so willingly was because I thought you might be." Blood sighed.

"Well, ya thought wrong." Kori stated. She and Syd were silently plotting all the ways they could kill Koenma.

Blood sighed again. He could not figure out why the two girls didn't like him, which wasn't really the case. They just didn't like his pervertedness and him calling them beautiful. Even that was unusual for Blood. Most women loved him (why does that remind me of youko?).

"I'M BORED!" Yusuke yelled suddenly. Syd smaked him for yelling in her ear.

Kuwabaka and Shizuru walked into the kitchen. The baka accidently stepped on Tarro, who was asleep on the floor.

Tarro woke up and decided to throw the baka off of him then beat it (it kuwabaka).

As much as she loved watching this, Syd thought Tarro might kill the dumbass if somene didn't do something. "Rat boy, ya might wanna calm down and NOT kill the baka and end up in the Spirit World prison." she stated, placing her head on her palm.

Blood said something along the lines of "The dog loves the human" before Syd decided to send him flying across the room. She glared flying katanas of death in his direction. Kurama had made no move to stop her.

"I'm gonna end up killin' it." Syd stated, talking about Blood.

"You can if you want to end up in jail." Kurama said, knowing that Syd did NOT like being behind any type of bars. She had never told him the reason.

"No thank you." Syd siad.

Tarro stopped pummeling the baka and was sitting at the table. "How many times do I have to tell you not to call me 'rat boy'?"

"I'll say a few thouzand to a million." Syd answered. "But, since when do I listen to you?" In answer, Tarro shrugged. "And it's not like your not a rat anyway, so I can call you 'rat boy' and mean it."

Everyone stared because Syd was the only one who knew what type of demon Tarro was. She had again succeeded in confusing them.

"I'm a rat demon." Tarro said in responce to the stares. He glared at Syd for her "hence rat boy" comment. "Can I kill her?"

A collective 'no' went around the room. Tarro's 'damn' was heard over Syd's laugh and exclamation of 'cheese!'.

Again, people stared at the insane green haired girl. She was currently run around the room for no real reason at all. Then again, she WAS Syd, the girl who did things on impulse (as someone said "Rely on impulse and not even your thoughts can betray you."). She ended up running into Kurama, who took hold of her to make sure she didn't run into anyone else.

There was a knock on the door. Syd broke out of Kurama's grip to answer it. She didn't like the way Blood was looking at her.

Syd walked to the door and opened it. There was a clear path from the front door to the kitchen. The person who had knocked sent Syd flying back into the kitchen and into one of the counters.

Syd slid down the wood of the counter and onto the floor. Her back was now causing her a lot of pain.

A woman with black hair that fell to her knees and cold brown eyes entered the roomsoon after Syd, who glared at her. This woman was the one who had caused Syd to go air-born.

Kurama and Blood, who looked slightly afraid of the woman, were kneeling at Syd's side.

"Blood." the woman said, her voice extremely cold. Blood looked at the woman, fear clear in his eyes. "It's time to go home."

"Can't." Blood stated, his voice shaking.

"Why not?" the woman asked. Her voice was now cold and angry.

"Koenma made me join Team Urameshi." Blood stated as he tried to hide behind Syd, who pushed him away without looking away from the woman.

"I have two questions." Kurama siad. the woman looked at him to show she was listening. "One: who are you? And two: Why did you throw Syd back into the kitchen?"

"I sent that girl into the kitchen because I know how Blood is and I do not like other women being near him." the woman stated, completely ignoring Kurama's other question.

"You didn't answer the other question, ya damned neko." Syd growled. Her voice was rough. She knew the smell of cats very well and also did not like the fact that one had sent her through the air.

"I don't think I have to. And you really shouldn't insult cats, it does not make me happy." the woman said. Her voice was just as rough as Syd's.

"This ain't your house, so ya really should state your name." Syd said. She was resisting the urge to attack the woman that was standing in the doorway of her kitchen. The fact that the woman was a cat demon really didn't help the matter.

"You really are a idiot dog, aren't you?" the cat asked.

That was what sent Syd over the edge. She was called an idiot by a cat and someone she didn't know at the same time. She lunged at the neko (who we are going to call neko until we get her name), ignoring the protest of her back.

Neko barely dodged the attack. She hadn't been expecting Syd to be violent. The stories told about the inu made the girl seem gentle, though she could be, wasn't the case. Neko struck back but missed.

Syd had dodged the attack by pushig off of the wall. She kicked at Neko and hit her target in the leg, causing her (Neko) to fall. Syd had been aiming for the cat's abdomen but her aim had been off like it usually was when she was mad. She jumped on the other animal, laning on her rib cage. She stood there until Kurama pulled her off. She fought violently against his hold.

Neko sat up and put her hand on the place where Syd had been standing. She was furious that she had been beaten. And by a dog no less (must be a serious insult to her cat-like pride)! She saw Syd's struggle and glared at the raging inu.

"Umm...Sarah (gah! that is soo un-original! reminds me of the originality of damien.../ damien: i can hear you/ well at least that proves your not deaf/ damien: YOU ARE SO MEAN! T-T;;cries in a corner after realizing that he was not feared;;)?" Blood asked the glaring neko. His voice was shaking.

"What Blood?" Sarah asked, her voice colder than ice. Blood shuddered at the cold tone of her voice but asked if she was alright. "I'm as fine as I will ever be after losing to a mutt."

Syd, who had stopped fighting against Kurama's grip, started trying to get free again after Sarah had called her a 'mutt.' Oh, how she wanted to tear out the throat of the cat that she knew she hated. Kurama was trying his hardest to keep her restrained. Hiei lent a helping hand. And when I say helping hand, I mean he KO'd Syd.

Syd's body went limp as she went into the blackness that was called unconsiousness. Kurama sat down and held on to her. If there was one thing that he had learned about Syd was that she didn't stay knocked out for long and would attack whoever had KO'd her and then attack the reason she was KO'd.

"Why are you here?" Kori asked Sarah. She didn't like the cat for doing her job for her. Her job being insulting Syd.

"I came to retrieve Blood, but apparently Koenma got to him first." Sarah answered.

"You can take him if you want him. We don't care." Hiei said. Blood glared at the fire youkai. Hiei glared back, with twice the force.

"If Koenma said he had to join your team he has to join your team. I can do nothing about it." Sarah said. "But I have to stay to make sure Blood doesn't do anything."

The others thought about what Syd would do when she found out about what Sarah had said. Oh yeah. Syd was gonna go through the roof. Peace would not be around here to stay until Blood went away and never came back. Everyone wanted that day to come as soon as it possibly could. Espessialy since they didn't trust Sarah.

syd: and this is where we shall end this chapter.

kurama: is it safe to assume that you have thought of something until you get to the end?

syd: it is never safe to assume that i have THOUGHT because when i think it usually doesn't end well, but yes

kurama: ;;shakes head;; you know syd's standard statement so please review.

syd: what pretty boy said!
