A New Light

Chapter 2- All You Need to Know

I stood at the edge of the cliff that was near Koenma's palace and I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and let my youki wrap around me like a cocoon does to a butterfly. When I opened my eyes matched the color of the ones of the fox but the white part of my eyes were black. Then I fell off the cliff. Before I hit the ground I did a flip so my feet would be facing the ground and let go of my youki. After I did that my youki formed a cloud underneath my feet so instead of touching the ground, I touched my youki cloud. Then I "flew" to where the yōkai were.

In about 5 minutes, I finally arrived to my destination. I then I hid my aura and flew to the ground. Fortunately, there were a lot of trees so I can hide and surprise my prey. I buttoned Daichi's coat halfway and kept on waiting for a yōkai to come to my hiding spot. I put on Daichi's blue and purple beats headphones and made sure that the MP3 Player was repeating the song Bodies by Drowning Pool. When the song started blaring into my ears I relaxed and waited for my first victim.

The Kamis must love me because not even one minute passed before a group of yōkai wandered into my hiding spot. I unstrapped Kuroyasha from my back and soundlessly fell to the ground. I snuck up to the nearest yōkai and beheaded it. The yōkai's friends noticed the smell of blood and turned around only to see their friend on the ground without a head and me. Before they could make a sound, I quickly beheaded them too.

Then another group of yōkai came and that's when the fight began between me and 650 yōkai. I can already tell that this is going to be an easy and boring fight. The group charged at me with their swords and claws. I swiftly avoided every attack and swung and stabbed them at every opening they gave me. One was even dumb enough to leave their heart unprotected. At every minute that passed more yōkai came only to quickly perish. Blood was landing everywhere and it began coating me from head to toe. Approximately 10 minutes passed since I began slaying yōkai and like about half of the yōkai were slayed. I hope that this fight doesn't take too long; I need to get back to Himeko before midnight and I have a feeling that Yusuke would want an explanation since Koenma and the others are watching me fight.

When I finished my thought, I finished killing the last D-class yōkai, now I need to kill all of the C-class demons and I'm done for the day. Then I noticed something, I slayed all of the demons. All of them.

You've got to be kidding me. I thought that C-class demons were more powerful than D and E class ones.

The ones you slayed at first were C-class demons mistress. You were just too caught up in your excitement to even notice that they were more powerful than the others.

Oh so that's why fighting got easier.

Yes now let's go back to Koenma's palace it's approximately 5:48 p.m. and we have some explaining to do to your half-brother and his friends

Sure, hey do you wanna lead the way to the palace.

Yes mistress it's been so long since I've been to be able to be free of my "prison"

Hey! It's not that bad

~chuckles~ Whatever you say mistress

I huffed and let my yōkai take control of my body. I turned into a black kitsune with a left violet eye and a silver right eye with 9 tails with the tips dipped in silver and my paws in violet. Then I began running back to Koenma's. It feels good to be able to run every once in a while, you get this taste of freedom. You have nothing to worry about. It's only you and the wind. Yes I can use my cloud to fly but I don't enjoy the flying in the air as much as I enjoy running in my yōkai form. I jumped from boulder to boulder, river over river. Too bad it has to end. I can see Koenma's palace. ~sigh~ If only I can feel this kind of freedom everyday like I did before that time.

Before I entered Koenma's territory, I heard footsteps. I stopped and growled. I looked at my surroundings and found nothing. I couldn't sense, smell or hear anything. My eyes landed on the setting sun. Shit! I have to get back quick before he finds me. I began running at top speed. To humans I wouldn't be able to be seen but this is spirit world. You never know when a demon arrives here or crosses here, to them I'll be a blur but the stronger the yōkai, the clearer they'll be able to see me. I continued running even after I heard behind footsteps when I was hallway into Koenma's palace. What I did was surround myself with my reiki and used my youki to run faster. The footsteps began getting louder and louder. Oh no! Please let it not be him, let it not be him, I began chanting in my head. Unfortunately, the footsteps were similar to his.

When I began to see the doors to Koenma's palace, I sent Daichi a telepathic message saying: Open the damn doors I he's right behind me. When I didn't see the doors open I started to freak out and yelled in his mind, "DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME YOU FUCKING SON OF A BITCH! I SAID THAT HE'S RIGHT BEHIND ME SO OPEN THE DAMN FUCKING DOORS BEFORE I KNOCK THEM DOWN AND KICK YOUR FUCKING ASS TO FREAKING HELL!" Then the doors began opening and I saw Daichi behind them. I ran as fast as I could and when I was inside the palace, Daichi closed the doors and put up a barrier around the palace. I collapsed on the floor while breathing hard. When I saw my hand I knew that some time before I entered the palace I change into my humanoid form. I started closing my eyes and I felt someone picking me up and carrying me bridal style. The last thing I saw before everything went dark was the worried face of my ani-chan.

Everything is so dark. Where am I?

You're inside your mind again Mistress

Oh no, its time isn't it?

Yes Mistress, vacation time is over and our time together is getting shorter

I just hope I don't regret giving up my mortality

Yes we must hope Mistress because even I don't know what the Kami are planning even though they are my "owners"Well I guess if I pray enough they'll give me good luck

You know that that is useless. The Kami do whatever they want.

Yea I know you don't have to remind me

Mistress before you wake up please promise me that you'll be careful with what you do in your life. Like the old man said, "Every decision you make is the difference between life and death."

I won't make any promises that I can't keep but I'll try

~sight~ That's good enough for me Mistress

Amaya you know this Mistress thing is getting annoying please call me Kagome

I could see Amaya's thankful eyes in the darkness and before I came back to the world of the living I heard her say, "Thank you, Kagome"

I heard whispers all around me. I slowly opened my eyes only to be blinded by a bright light. I covered my eyes with my arm and groaned. I heard footsteps running towards me and I felt one hand help me stand up and handing me a bottle of water. I put my hand down and drank the water. "Are you alright Kagome?" I heard Yusuke ask. I nodded my head and looked around only to find myself in Koenma's office on his couch. I heard Daichi sigh and asked, "Are you one hundred percent sure that it was him who was following you?"

I nodded my head and said, "Yea I recognized his footsteps. Plus he's the only outsider that can see me and isn't afraid of me once they see my yōkai form."

I looked at Yusuke and saw him crossing his arms with an irritated face but his eyes showed his true emotions. He felt betrayed. "Why didn't you tell me you were a demon?" he asked with an emotionless voice. Any normal person would feel bad but I'm not a normal person. I had my own reasons not to tell him and I don't regret them. Plus he actually thinks I'm a normal demon. I think I know the real reason as to why Koenma called me.

I chuckled then it turned a full-blown laugh. I held onto my stomach when it started to hurt and fell of the couch, onto my knees, then the floor. Yusuke and his companions looked at me like I've gone crazy which only made me laugh harder because their faces looked so freaking weird. "What's so funny?" Yusuke asked. I took a few deep breaths and settled down.

I looked at him and said, "Dude I'm not a normal everyday demon. I'm a forbidden one." Yusuke and his companions looked at me wide-eyed. I sat cross-legged and looked at Kurama and the forbidden demon confused and disappointed. I pointed at them and said, "I thought you two would have already known. Don't you sense two different types of energies in my aura?"

To everyone's surprise the short forbidden demon spoke first. "I noticed something odd about your aura. It wasn't until you said you were a forbidden demon like me I looked into your aura and did see two energies. One white and one black but they were not fighting for dominance but mixed together, why is that?"

I answered by saying, "I balanced my powers. Many people don't know this but every forbidden demon has light and dark energies. If they learn to balance both energies , then they will no longer fight for dominance but mix with each other. Unfortunately, they also learn that they can cover up one energy with the other so they covered up one energy so that it would be undetectable by even the most powerful demon, so many choose to do that to fit it with other demons."

He looked at me like I was crazy and I thought that he didn't believe me until he asked me, "Then why didn't you cover up one of your energies? Don't you want to fit in with the other demons?"

I sighed and said, "Listen here Shorty, unlike many forbidden demons I'm not afraid to show who I really am. Like a wise man I know once said, "It's better to show the real you because if you don't, then your friends will find out and abandon you or worse hunt you down and kill you."

Yusuke seemed to snap out of his shock then asked, "How in the fucking hell are you a forbidden demon? When I visited you last time you were one hundred percent human."

I looked at him and said, "Someone gave me the choice, I accepted it, ran away from my friends, and waited about 500 years to become a spirit detective so I could find my friends again."

Then Kurama chose that moment to speak, "Wait you said you waited about 500 years, how could you be born 18 years ago but wait 500 years to be a spirit detective?"

I gave him a smirk and said, "That story should be told another time. For right now you can try and figure out the answer to your own question. I mean doesn't the kitsune inside of you love puzzles?"

Kurama narrowed his eyes at me and asked, "How do you know about Youko?"

I giggled and said, "Your aura and soul say it all." When I saw Yusuke open his mouth to ask me another question I said, "Guys all you need to know is that I am a forbidden kitsune demon, I am Yusuke's half-sister, I am going to be working with you guys and training you and that I am the famous Kuro Bara."
