Okay, this is SamuraiKai, with the rewritten first chapter of my story. I'm sure you can figure out which story seeing as you're reading it. If you're wondering, there is a brief mention to one of the Yu Yu Hakusho gang, I mean she passes out in his arms and what not, I'm figuring you can figure that out on your own. Anyways, they'll all be there in the next chapter. If you guys like it, let me know so I'll update quicker, deal? Yay!

Hercules (my dog): Woof! Woof!

Nate's Translator: (In a metallic voice) Do not forget the disclaimer…

Kai (that's me!): Oh, right… Well, does anyone want to say it for me? looks around

Botan: Sure! Kai doesn't own anything Yu Yu Hakusho related, however she does own Eri and her family. While she doesn't own heaven because she isn't God, she owns all of the angels she creates, including Eri's father. With that being said, she doesn't want anyone stealing her characters, and if you want to borrow them you have to get her permission. And Nate isn't hers either, he is a creation of a friend of hers who doesn't want him stolen except by Kai who has permission. He is a super genius who created a machine that will translate any language. He'll probably be translating more in the beginnings to come, but won't appear in the story. Looks at Kai How was that?

Kai: blinks You know way too much about me Botan, that's scary. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because you're the grim reaper.

Botan: Bingo! Bingo! You got it! You seem to know a lot about me too!

Kai: O.O Yeah… sighs anyways, on with the story. I hope you enjoy it!


It was finally over, that was all that mattered. The wind blowing in her face, whipping her hair around, the stars shining overhead casting light on the dark night, even the people walking past, none of that mattered. All that mattered was that it was over. It was today, today was over. With that thought in mind, Eri wiped the tears from her soft silver eyes, unwilling to think about what had transpired over the past few hours.

In fact, while Eri thought about her current situation, she schooled her face into an emotionless mask and hid her emotions from herself especially. Today had been terrible, it was true, but it was over. That woman was out of Eri's life, or Eri were out of hers as it were. Her mother had kicked her out of her house tonight, claiming she was bringing her other children away from her. Claiming Eri was a juvenile delinquent, when it wasn't true. Sure, the girl got into fights, but they were to defend her honor. And sure she had some strange habits, but they were due to her heritage, not to being satanic. If anything, she was the farthest from satanic anyone could be. She was half angel.

Stopping, she looked around at her surroundings for a second. The trees rustled nearby and Eri looked up at the moon for her last bit of comfort. Her dad was out there somewhere, she knew he was, he had to be. Her mother had tried to lie, saying he was dead, but Eri knew better. He was an angel, and he'd gone back to Heaven, where he'd belonged. That had been a huge part of the argument tonight, the argument that had left her an orphan. She shook that away, not wanting to think about it. The fight didn't matter now, her father was gone for good and so was her old life. She sat at a bench and breathed deep the fresh air. "It's peaceful out here," she realized, unconsciously reaching for the necklace she always wore around her neck. It was a key shaped pendant, the only other thing her father had left to her besides being an angel.

She heard a scream from behind, and stood to face that direction. A demon was terrorizing people? Here, with all these lights? Brushing her soft burgundy hair out of her face, Eri made her way forward towards the creature her angel half was alerting her to what she already knew. This thing was a youkai, the weakest of its kind true, but one nonetheless.

Energy building in her hands, the girl tackled the demon to the ground, managing to punch it many times before it shrieked a sound no ears should hear, and threw her off, managing to make her land roughly on the concrete several feet away. Brushing the dirt off, Eri stood and made her way against the sorry excuse for a demon again.

"Honestly, if that was going to hurt anything but my ears, you should have tried harder," she scoffed, before charging up her hands once again and charging. This time, when she landed, her fists went through his chest, and she managed to get her feet wrapped around its neck.

With a sickening snap, she twisted his head around, breaking his neck, before flipping off and landing on one knee to see the creature fall dead to the ground. That was when the shaking began, and she cursed fate for not allowing her to train so this could be avoided. She cursed her mother for keeping her from her birthright.

Without being able to control her abilities, she was vulnerable when she'd exhausted what little she could control. Looking up, she noticed that someone was willing to take advantage of that, as a redhead made his way over to her side. There was nothing she could do about it when she passed out, either, except fall into his arms.


I'm sorry if this is too short for you guys, but I tried to make it longer, to make it better, without giving too much away. And you should all really thank, not that anyone besides her read the older version I'm sure, Nanashi Naomi for my rewriting this. If you want to read the older version, feel free, I'm going to post the website to my quizzes on my homepage, but it's not staying here to make the rewritten story look bad. Thanks again Nanashi, that's really all I needed to rewrite it. I hope this is better, but feel free to tell me if you think something should be changed again. Ja ne minna-san!
