Chapter nine

Entrance of a new foe

Hiei had gone somewhere a while ago, said something about "Koenma", so Seiko was stuck here for now, with Kuwabara, making stupid conversation.

"Kuwabara, we've gotta go. Koenma's got another mission." Yusuke said walking into the room.

"What? Since when am I part of your team?"

"Since you got your powers, now c'mon, we have a girl to rescue."

"Girl? Who?"

"An ice apparition and we have to hurry, so stop being an idiot."

At this, Seiko stood up; having listened to the conversation, she felt the need to join in.

"I'm coming as well, you'll need me."

"You can't," replied Yusuke, "you'll get in the way."

"How do you plan on getting there? You'll need my powers. There could be strong enemies, and I'm more powerful than either of you." Seiko replied.

"Just let her come man, she won't do any harm" Kuwabara added.

"Fine" Yusuke sighed, before walking out the door.

"Arms hurt yet boys?" Seiko said as she flew over the forest, holding each boy by one arm.

"Like it's gonna fall off." Replied Kuwabara

"There it is, now can you put us down?" Yusuke said, ignoring Kuwabara

Seiko smirked at this. "Alright" She said, letting go of their arms and watching them fall. When they neared the ground though, she flew down and grabbed on to the opposite arm she had been holding, and lowering them to the ground slowly, laughing.

"What the hell was that?" Yusuke asked, recovering as they walked towards the mansion.

Seiko's laughter faded as they got to the gate of the mansion. "So I was right." She muttered under her breath. "Watch yourself boys, there are massive amounts of spirit energy inside," she said before they walked into the gate.

She watched as the massive fire engulfed them, when Yusuke shielded them with his spirit energy. She watched as they beat three deamons, clumsily and without strategy but with instinct. When they reached the final room, and she saw the final opponent, she stopped them from attacking. "Let me take this one, he's too strong for you." She said as she walked forward. "Toguru, was it?" She said to the Deamon, "You meet your end here.

Toguru attacks, but Seiko jumps and easily dodges it. A blast of spirit energy smashes the shield on his arm. Seiko looks over towards Yusuke and nods, accepting his help from the spirit gun. Seiko attacked from one end with a fire attack she learned from Byakko while Yusuke fired his Spirit Gun from the other. Toguru grabbed Seiko's arm before the attack reached his body and crushed the bones. Yusuke's Spirit gun was blocked by the shield, which reformed itself. All three attackers were surprised and a little frustrated. "Yusuke" She called, "You've got to knock the shield off." Seiko attacked long-distance using her brother's lightning attack. Yusuke attacked the base of the shield and shattered it. Seiko then fried it with a massive lightning attack.

"Kuwabara, Yusuke, now!" She called. Kuwabara readied the spirit sword, and as Seiko unleashes a thunder attack to distract Toguru, Yusuke uses another Spirit gun to propel Kuwabara and his Spirit sword to impale Toguru. He falls to the ground, where they assumed he was dead. Seiko fell to her knees for a minute, before getting up, holding her left arm, which refuses to move, and walks towards the stairs, "Yukina" she whispered. She walked up the stairs and into the place where that bastard was. She saw Yukina and spoke to her, "You're okay… Yukina… I'm glad… they didn't hurt you… did they?" She asked her. When she noticed Hiei she added, "Oh… hi Hiei," before blacking out. Hiei caught her before she hit the ground.

"Is she okay?" Yukina asked him

"She'll be fine, she's strong." Hiei replied. He then turned to Yukina and said, "These people helped you, Yukina, they came here to rescue you." Yukina nodded and hurried downstairs to help the others.

"Why didn't you tell her?" Said Kurama, walking out of the shadows. "She deserves to know she has a brother."

"She'd be better without me in her life" He said, picking Seiko up and walking towards the door.
