A.N. Once again this chapter is dedicated to Noko317, who is the only person who reviewed chapter four. She's such a nice friend. (Starts glaring at all the people who have read it had haven't reviewed.) I mean come on people; reviews are what keeps me writing, just knowing that people are actually taking the time to leave a note for me. Anyway, on with the story!

Sakura couldn't wait to be adopted; only there was an issue. One of the workers at the child services department remembered Yuuske from his days in high school. As soon as she found out, she violently contested the adoption.

"You can't be serious Nokomis! That girl has been waiting over 10 years to find a real family. You can't take that hope away from her!" Mrs. Chiba said heatedly as soon as she found out about the issue. "You should see her around them. She has gained a confidence that I have not seen from her. She's always been top of her class, but now she has the confidence to go out and make friends. All I want for her is for her to have a loving family where she can grow. She's always had good judgment, and if she trust them, then so do I." At that moment Sakura walked through the door, fresh out of school.

"Hey Mrs. Chiba I'm home!" Sakura called, not noticing them sitting there.

"We can see that dear." Mrs. Chiba said, beckoning her over. "This is Ms. Tribby, she has some reservations to your adoption, because of the fact that she knew Yuuske in school, and is worried about the way he would treat you."

Sakura's eyes widened at this. "I appreciate your concern Ms. Tribby, but I can assure you I have never felt safer then when I am with my soon to be parents. I know that I can trust them completely with my health and well being. I can trust my judgment, but the question is, can you trust me?" She said with a layer of ice at least a foot thick covering her words. Her spirit energy, reacting to her anger, started to crackle around her.

"Sakura calm down! No one is going to take your chance away." Mrs. Chiba said, grabbing her hand, to attempt to calm her. Slowly Sakura calmed down and the energy vanished. It took her a few seconds to fully realize what she had done. But as soon as she did, her face blanched and she ran out of the room.

"That's why she needs them Nokomis, she doesn't know how to control herself, and Yuuske would be able to teach her that, despite what he was in high school." Mrs. Chiba said after a few minutes of silence. Nokomis just sat there, mulling over what she just saw.

Sakura ran into her room, shock and disbelief written all over her far too pale face. 'How could I have done that? If I had completely lost control I could have killed someone. Koenma explained about spirit energy, but he never told me that if I went untrained I could kill someone… She was interrupted in her musing when a certain blue haired, far too cheerful for her own good, ferry girl popped her head in.

"Hey Sakura! Just stopping by to see how you were doing. Hey, what's the matter? You look like you've just seen a ghost." Boton said, her attempt at humor failing miserably.

"I lost control of my spirit energy today." Sakura replied tonelessly. "If Mrs. Chiba hadn't stopped me, I could have seriously hurt someone."

"Oh. No wonder. Well I can tell you that as soon as we can, we'll start training you. What happened that made you loose control?"

"Some woman from child services was here when I got home from school today, talking to Mrs. Chiba. Mrs. Chiba introduced me and then told me how the woman was having doubts about me being adopted by Yuuske and Kayko. It was because she knew him in high school. As soon as I heard this, I suddenly got very angry; I told her that I trusted my judgment, the least she could do was trust me. At that point I guess I lost control. Mrs. Chiba was able to calm me, but I rushed off as soon as I had realized what I had almost done. I could have killed them. What's wrong with me?" Sakura said, gazing down into her lap. Silently she started to cry.

"It's alright Sakura; you aren't turning into some type of monster. Your spirit energy is just starting to show itself in its full glory. My advice would be to try not to get too angry, but if you start to loose control, just take several deep breaths and try to calm down." Boton patted the crying girl's arm, in an attempt to stop the tears. She soon left to go and report what happened to Koenma.

"So her powers are already showing themselves." Koenma said at the end of Boton's report. "We'll need to step things up so we can get to her training. If her powers are already starting to show themselves, she could very well surpass what Yuuske was before his demonic powers were unlocked. Would you go let Yuuske and Kayko know that I need to see them right away." He asked of Boton.

"Will do Koenma-san!"

After a short wait Yuuske came waltzing in, Kayko following him. "So what's so urgent pacifier-breath?" Yuuske asked.

"Sakura lost control of her spirit energy today, so that means we have to step up the adoption speed. I'll be able to cut through a lot of the red tape holding it back right now, and everything should be ready in the next two weeks."

"I'll get her school transfer papers together then Koenma-san." Kayko said.

"Is that all pacifier-breath?" Yuuske asked.

"Yes Yuuske, you can go back to whatever you were doing that was so important." And as Yuuske and Kayko were walking out of the office, Koenma got back to work, calling in a few favors that were owed him.

"Konbonwa Prime Minister, this is Koenma Daioh. Yes, I have I favor to ask of you…"
