Disclaimer: I do not own YYH no matter how much I wish I did.

Things that are in both italics and the single quotations ( ' ' ) are thoughts. (I'm not sure if they're called single quotations or not, I'm just going on my best guess here.)

Ex. 'It's snowing outside, how pretty.'

Anything in Parenthesis are little comments I put for either an explanation purpose or if I just plain want to comment on anything.

Summary: It's Valentine's Day in the world of YYH and what a Valentine's Day it turns out to be. Chaos ensues as Cupid rebels, arrows fly, the gang falls in love with each other, oh and did I mention that Kurama gets kidnapped by a psychotic fan girl? This will be a day that no one will ever forget, no matter how much they may want to.

Recap: "So I guess we follow the bouncing Botan then."

"Xstleymctka!" (Jin translation: "Exactly Urameshi!")

"Uh right, well we're getting nowhere fast so we might as well start moving."

"For once I agree with the detective," Hiei said as he started off after Botan.

Without further ado, here's my fic, I hope you enjoy it.


Ch. 2

Three hours later

"Come on Botan, where the hell are we?!? It seems like we've been going around in circles for hours!"

Hiei glared carefully at Botan. "Perhaps that's because we have."

Botan rubbed the back of her neck with her hand. "He, he, he, he. Maybe this device isn't as reliable as I had thought." Botan sweat drops

"Hmm, I guess that's why I'm feeling dizzy," Kuwabara announced, more to himself than anybody else, scratching his head absently.

"Sorry to rain on your parade, but that would just be the side effect of your own incompetence. Maybe you shouldn't try thinking for a while, you could seriously hurt yourself."

It took a few moments for Hiei's statement to sink in before Kuwabara exploded. "Hey, that's not very nice!!!"

"Exactly."

"Why you little….!!"

"Guys, guys, break it up! This is no time for your consequential bickering!" Botan stood between the two, her arms crossed, trying to ignore the sparks between the two. (Literal sparks in Hiei's case.)

The glaring match was cut short by an all too familiar sound coming from ahead of everyone. "Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!" Everyone turned to see a little blue penguin-like blob flapping its huge ears, as if they were wings, and flying towards the others.

"Puu, what the hell are you doing here?!? Just great, just what I need, that THING hanging around me, making me look stupid!"

"That isn't very nice Yusuke. Poor Puu." Everyone turned to see an annoyed Keiko appearing up after Puu.

"K-k-keiko? What are you doing here?"

"Well Yusuke, I was wondering where you were, and Puu seemed worried. Besides, it's Valentines Day."

"Please, don't remind me," Yusuke said with a huge sigh.

Keiko looked at Yusuke strangely. "What, you don't like Valentines Day?"

"Don't worry Sheila, our boy here's just in a little tiff 'cause 'a our mission today. Must be real disappointed that you can' have yur nasty ta'day."

"EWWWW!!!" shrieked Keiko.

Yusuke gave Chuu a strange look like he was wondering what he was talking about, while the others, with the exception of Yukina, looked at least slightly disgusted. Yukina just looked around, clueless and completely oblivious as to what Chuu was talking about. Kuwabara looked at Yusuke with both a disgusted and angry look on his face. "Urameshi! How could you?! How can you just take advantage of Keiko like that?!"

"Urg, Kuwabara, Yusuke has done no such thing!"

Kuwabara turned to Keiko, taking her hands in his, and said solemnly, "Oh Keiko, there is no need to protect him, you can tell the truth."

Keiko ripped her hands away from Kuwabara's, her face contorted with disgust. "But I am telling the truth," Keiko tried desperately.

Botan was now giggling. "Oh Kuwabara, I think you should believe her. Besides, if Yusuke tried anything Keiko would most likely slap the living daylights out of him."

Yusuke, now getting very uncomfortable with the subject, started to move uneasily. "Yo, guys, aren't we on a mission here? Let's get going already!"

Kurama nodded. "Yusuke has a point. We should take care of this as soon as possible."

2 more hours pass by

"Come on Botan, we're getting nowhere! We've been walking for hours and all we've gotten was out of the woods and that endless circle.

"I'm not sure what's wrong with this thing," Botan said, slightly shaking the tracking device, "it should have been working."

"At this rate I'd get there sooner by sniffing the air!"

"I find that very hard to believe Yusuke. Though perhaps we should all stop at that place over there," Kurama suggested, pointing to a store down the street. "We've all been walking for hours and none of us have had breakfast, with the exception of maybe Puu and Keiko, so the break could be good for us."

"Hn. I don't need any substantial nourishment. I'm all for continuing. The more time we spend on break the more time it'll take to handle this case."

Kurama thought for a moment before replying calmly, "You know Hiei, if we stop over here we can get you some sweet snow. What do you say?"

Hiei's eyes lit up for a moment before returning to normal. "Count me in."

As Yusuke walked by Kurama, on his way to the mini mart he said, "Kurama, I like the way you think." With that everyone headed into the mini mart. Kurama smiled at the middle-aged couple at the counter, who happened to be the owners and the only workers in the store. The man and the woman stood behind the counter, towering in fear. I suppose they had the right though. It's not like you see people like those of the gang everyday (fate is not that kind). Jin got the majority of the attention, though probably because of his horn, if nothing else. Puu was right up there with Jin though in attention, seeing as a 'living plushy', as it would appear, is not quite normal either. Thankfully enough, the store was empty of customers except for them. Even the streets that they had been walking through for the past hour had been cleared of everything but the occasional dust ball. (Ok, so there really were no dust balls, but you get the picture.)

The couple was hiding under the counter as everyone went their own ways. Hiei, as expected, headed strait for the freezer and started raiding the supply of ice cream. Really no surprise there. Keiko went to grab sodas for herself, Kuwabara, and Yusuke, Botan helping her. Chuu was near them, picking out as much alcohol as his large arms could hold. (Mmmm, such a nutritious breakfast for everyone.) Chuu paused for a moment, thinking, before walking over to the cashier counter. He placed the alcohol down and crooned his neck over so he could see the managers. "Excuse me mates, but could you give a bloke a few big bags?"

The man remained crouched low as his wife scurried around to get him four big bags. She carefully walked up to him, keeping as much distance between them as she could, and placed the bags on the counter with a small squeak. (I suppose Chuu is a bit intimidating, for a giant with a blue mohawk.) In size comparison, she was an ant, completely covered by his shadow. Chuu nodded to her. "Thanks Sheila." Then he went back over to the fridge and started filling up the bags. Jin was floating cross-legged in the air, trying to decide what to get while Kurama tried to comfort the couple hovering beneath the counter.

After about 20 minutes the group was ready to check out. They all walked over to the counter and deposited their things. There were snacks of every kind, including donuts that Kuwabara desperately clung to, various sodas, and all Chuu's alcohol, which he did not even bother trying to fit on the counter, and then there was the ice cream. Countless gallons of ice cream lay on the long, wooden counter, not that all of them actually had ice cream in them. Hiei, in his overpowering desire for what he calls 'sweet snow', had started on some of the Ultimate Chocolate gallons. (Eeee, really bad idea. Hiei on a sugar rush? We're all gonna die.) Kurama had convinced Hiei to take both the full and empty gallons up to the counter so they could pay for them.

The couple trembled uncontrollably as the stares of the gang met them. Kurama started to reach into his pocket to pull out some money, but the woman stopped him. "Please, you can have it all for free," she pleaded. (She thought that he was going to pull a gun out on her.) Everyone but Kurama just shrugged, grabbed their stuff, and headed out the door. Kurama glanced at the managers with an apologetic look before turning and heading out after the others.

"So, what now?" asked Yusuke, sipping on a fruit punch slushy he had gotten from a machine in the mini mart. (Notice how even his slushy has some form of violence in it.)

"Now, we continue our search for Cupid," replied Botan rather matter-of-factly.

"Oh come on, not that again. We've been going on for hours and gotten absolutely nowhere. I think I'm starting to prefer the candy, singing, cards, and flowers now."

"Yusuke, stop your whining, you're acting like a big baby." Everyone turned to see Koenma standing behind them.

"K-k-koenma, sir, what are you doing here?" asked Botan, utterly surprised at her boss's appearance.

Koenma raised his finger. (As he usually does when he explains things.) "Well, you see…..there's this thing……………."

"You have no idea do you?" asked Hiei, as grim as ever. (I guess the ice cream didn't help his mood that much.)

Koenma laughed uneasily, "Of course I do. It's simply that….." Koenma sighed. "Alright, fine, I don't have a clue. One minute I was sitting at my desk, stamping official papers, and the next I was up in a tree."

"Interesting," Kurama said, clearly pondering on the situation.

Recognition hit Keiko as she stared at Koenma. "I remember you," she exclaimed, pointing at him. "You're that coward, err, I mean replacement with the jet pack strapped to your back. You were just going to ditch Yusuke, Hiei, Kuwabara, and Kurama!!"

"Heh, heh, heh." Koenma scratched his face stupidly. "Not exactly the way I wanted to be remembered, but, uh, yeah." Koenma, in his teenage form paused for a moment before saying, "I fear this has grown much more serious than I first thought. If Cupid has the power to summon me here and not permit me the ability to go back, who knows what else he is capable of."

"I see, then we should try our best to increase the speed at which things are going."

"Yes Kurama that would be a smart thing to do. We must also try to sort this out before my father returns."

"You mean from his vacation? I thought he wasn't coming back for a few months."

Koenma shook his head, "No Botan, he is returning in one week." (Is it just me or are they always rushed?)

"One week!?!" exclaimed Yusuke. "But we haven't even found him yet and who knows how long that will take or how strong he is!" Koenma just nodded solemnly.

" 'K mates, let'z got gon then," slurred Chuu, who was wobbling and waving a bottle of tequila up in the air.

"Chuu, how much have you had to drink?" asked Kurama worriedly.

"Na muh may, juz a spe." (Translation: "Not much mate, just a spec.")

"Really now, and how much would a spec be?" Kurama questioned further.

" 'Bou sevy-fi." (Translation for drunk, slurring Chuu: "About seventy-five.")

"Sure, and that's nothing," stated Kurama sarcastically.

"Ur ri may," (Translation, which I seem to be doing a lot of lately sigh: "You're right mate.")

"I'm starting to think stopping at the mini mart wasn't such a good idea," said Yusuke with a sigh.

Kuwabara gasped and clutched his bags from the store close to him. "How dare you say such a thing Urameshi! Do not insult the power of the donuts!!" Everyone stared at Kuwabara like he had lost his mind.

"Uh, is he okay?" asked Yusuke with a disturbed look on his face.

"I doubt the answer to that question would be a 'yes'," Kurama replied, the disturbed look gracing his face as well. "Wait a minute, where is Chuu and Hiei?" They all turned to find that Kurama's observation had been correct, Hiei and Chuu were nowhere to be seen. "That's odd, I thought they were both here a moment ago."

"Yeah, things are just getting weirder and weirder." (Yusuke was just starting to recover from Kuwabara's strange outburst.)

"Um, excuse me?"

Everyone turned to see Yukina standing behind them. "Yukina, my love! Where have you been? We were walking in the woods and you just disappeared.

"It was strange. One moment I was with you guys and the next I was someplace far away."

"She must have been teleported, just as I was," Koenma said evenly. Suddenly a loud crash could be heard. They started running towards the sound of the crash and what met their eyes both horrified them and disturbed them to the very core.


A/N: Okay people - for anyone who is upset with the whole 'I haven't updated this story in about ten months' thing, I'm really sorry. There's been a lot going on and I've had trouble keeping interest in my writing due to certain events. I know that's a really crappy excuse, but it's all I have besides a headache the size of hippo. I have the first five chapters finished though, so I'll just be putting them up (no prob.) when I feel another should be put up...which usually comes after reviews. I know I'm horrible, but I do hope that people still read and possibly enjoy my story if at all possibly. Oh yes, and a big thanks to my friends who have already given me reviews. You guys rock major socks.
