please Review and enjoy!
I looked at him shocked, not fully believing what he said. did he just say he will bring them back? 'he can bring them back? But at what cost? Even if he is sorry and is doing this as an apology there has got to be more to it' I shook my head and regained my composure, looking at him sternly "what's the catch?" he looked surprised, oh boy he was in trouble "I said as an apology I will do it, there is no catch" I scoffed, oh pleaseeeeee. "Do Not lie to me Koenma I'm in no mood, I am not stupid Even if your afraid of becoming my enemy its still to costly on your part to hand back lives. I know about your case with your spirit detective Yusuke it was a rare case and you cant wait to sink your teeth into a rare case" Koenma paled, bingo!...hit the nail right on the head. "h-how do you know about Yusuke!" I smirked evilly, should I tell him?...yeah I think i will. "oh Koenma I know everything on your little spirit detectives, I keep a close eye on all of my allies and I have info on all of them, Now I will ask nicely one last time, What is the cost?" Koenma sighed, finally he will treat this as a serious matter. "you are right Amaya there is a small catch, if I bring them back they must want to come back to the living and I can not force them to return" I nodded "that's not so bad of course they would want to return especially when they can return to me" he looked down, theres more to it, and i have a bad feeling about it "there is another concern though" I sighed...i knew it, I looked at him emotionless, he finally looked me in the eye. studying me for a second "they may not remember who you are, actually there is a very low chance that they will recover there memories" I froze, actually for a moment I stopped breathing, I then took in a shaky breath running a hand through my long black hair "how low of a percentage?" Koenma didn't answer at first, and that made me nervous, I started to beg him to tell me "Koenma please tell me How low?" He sighed and looked at me with sympathy, i let it slide, I needed to know "about 14%" I felt my legs give out and I collapsed to the floor "I don't understand they may not remember me? How is it that its that possible?" Koenma nodded and took a deek breath, trying to handle this carefully. "I understand your confusion let me explain, the process is extremely dangerous and the more power a person has the harder it is for them to come back as they were and an extra exchange is to ensure they come back in one piece, they may lose there memory" I stared at the floor in confusion, i didnt rise from my knees, i would probably just fall again "one piece? What do you mean by that?" He sucked on his pacifier a few times nervously, my voice was strained and he knew anymore news may break me, but He knew I NEEDED to know. "If anything goes wrong there spirits will not be able to handle the strain of the process and their spirit will shatter, If that happens they will not have a way to return and they will cease to exist and I'm afraid the chances of that happening are about 90%". I feel like im going to be sick and I tried to calm myself down and keep my emotions in check.
I shook my head and stood up slowly "tell me Koenma how many times have you performed this?" he stood on the desk and replied calmly "about 2 thousand" I nodded, ok so surly this will turn out fine, he's done it alot of times. "and how many have been proven a success" he laughed nervously and I felt my hope dissapear "about 2" I sweat dropped, ok not the answer i was looking for "then how do I know this will work, why would I risk the chance of my mate and daughter?" he nodded in agreement, he must have thought that through "yes I am aware of the risks but that is why you must speak with your mate about it though due to the low power of your pup there is a higher chance for her to survive" I stood there taking it all in " I see, is there a way for me to speak to them?" he nodded "yes there is" he then went in to his desk draw and pulled out a glass bottle that had black liquid in it, though it was clearly not normal, it had red swirling with the black. The bottle itself was a dark purple and had a blue skull on the top where the cork would be, It definitely did not have a welcoming look to it. I narrowed my eyes studying the bottle "and what is that?" I asked unsure, i have never seen this before in my life. "This is called Spiritual Dream of the Afterlife" I looked at him "what does it do?". He put it on his desk "well as the name says it will put you in a comatose state, it will allow you to speak with the ones that past on, in your dreams" I took the bottle in my hands and took a good look at it. "how long will I have to speak to them?" He looked at me seriously "you will have two hours to speak with them" I looked up at him forgetting about the bottle for a second "and how long for this to take affect?" He looked at the clock on the wall "it will take about an hour after ingestion to take full effect" I opened the bottle, about to down the warm liquid "well lets get this over with" as I put it to my lips he stopped me, oh this better be good "wait there is one more thing" I glared at him letting out a low growl "I am getting sick and tired of your conditions and warnings….what is it now!" I didnt feel bad about scaring him, HE'S PISSING ME OFF.
he gulped audibly "there are Minor side effect" I growled lowly for the secod time in 2 seconds "SPILL IT TODDLER!" He started shaking...Nope still dont feel bad! "well after your 2 hours is up you will not immediately come out of the coma….getting right to the point you will be in a coma for a week and you'll lose your power for about a month, to put it quite simply you will be as weak as a human" all of a suddenn the door slammed open and Kane and Isamu came in growling still in there full demon forms, I looked at them and put the bottle on the desk. This was not going to end well if something isnt done. "NO WAY IS OUR LITTLE SISTER DOING THAT YOU INCOMPETENT PACIFIER SUCKING DIPSHIT!" Isamu yelled, Kane then spoke up equally at pissed as his twin. ah crap here we go. "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY DEMONS WANT HER HEAD ON A SILVER PLATTER!" Koemna hid behind his desk and tried to reason with the wolf demon brothers, If this wasnt a serious matter I would be laughing my ass off "Im sorry but I assure you there is no alternative" they both growled even louder clearly not happy with the response, their eyes screaming murder. "WE SAID NO!" they both screamed and jumped at Koenma. I sighed, this was getting ridiculous, then got in front of Koenma and slapped Isamu and Kane, the force of my slap caused them to fly in opposite directions hitting the walls, leaving a nice size hole in both walls "enough! Knock it off!" I growled at them "now I know you are upset but need I remind you even though you are older then me, This is my decision and MY DICISION ALONE!" they both looked to the floor afraid of me directing my anger even more toward them. I turned back to Koenma who came out of hiding behind his desk looking relieved. I nodded towards him and grabbed the bottle and looked at my brothers and smiled at them "take care of my body of boys" they nodded as I looked at Koenma one more time "if this proves to be a success Koenma I will join your spirit detectives as a way of agreement" He nodded but obviously was worried due to the high chances of things going wrong. I took one last look at the bottle and downed the whole thing. Koenma looked serious "I have a room set up for you at the mansion my spirit detectives reside you and your pack are welcomed to stay as you sleep if you wish they have rooms as well for your pack" I nodded atleast everyone could relax "we will gladly take you up on your offer thank you" he nodded and we were directed to our rooms. As I walked in I gasped in awe, my room was quite breath taking. The walls were painted a beautiful silver with white flecks that made it look like it was snowing, There was a queen sized bed that had silver silk sheets, there was also a desk and a book case with over 100 books, I couldnt help but also noticed I had my own private bathroom. Looking around I saw the walls had a picture of my wolf pack in there full demon forms even Akemi and Kiyoshi, I walked over and brushed my hand on their pictures. Emotions trying to stur but I quickly pushed them aside, then I sat on the bed and started feeling sleepy. I looked at the clock on the wall and noticed its been an hour since I took the potion. The last thing I saw was my brothers watching me from the doorway before falling into unconsciousness.
*Isamu's POV*
I was mad, no I was livid. 'How could Koenma do that?' it was absurd, my little sister has already taken on the responsibility of leading the pack, making sure to keep us safe from danger, then had to deal with the death of her mate and pup and now koenma is taunting her with the fact he can bring them back BUT THEY MIGHT BE DESTROYED OR FORGET EVERYTHING IN THE PROCESS!. 'Amaya is smart she wouldn't make any stupid decisions right?….but in her desperate and confused state I fear she might not be thinking logically' I took a deep breath and looked at my sister one last time then walked out and shut the door. I then looked to my left at Kane. His head was down so I couldn't see his eyes, I did however see that his whole body was shaking and hand were clenched so tight that his knuckles were turning white. I softly put my hand on his shoulder causing him to jump and snap out of his trance. He looked at me eyes filled with anger and sadness, the same look my own held. "everything will be okay brother" Kane didn't looked convinced, I couldnt blame him, Hell I couldnt convince myself. "How is it going to be okay Isamu? Our little sister just lost her husband and daughter, now koenma is rubbing it in her face by asking her to join his team and not even caring about his mistake or her emotional state! It's not fair she's just a child, she shouldn't have to go through this Brother…she should be living a happy carefree life not one with death, misery and sorrow!" I looked at him with sympathy as he was desperately trying not to cry. I smiled sadly at him, trying to give him some hope "Amaya is a strong girl you know that as well as I do, She knew ever since she was a little girl that her life would not be easy, I agree its not fair but she has to make the decision on her own, and we need to support her choice" Kane closed his eyes and bowed his head, and I patted his back "come on Kane! we raised her and trained her since she was little, she will be fine physically and mentally" He looked up and nodded "I hope your right Isamu, but I still worry about her mental state, she hasn't had a chance to mourn over them since she had to be strong for everyone else, she's got to mourn at least for a little while or she will never move on" I nodded, that will be a problem "yes I know Kane all we can do is wait and pray, common let us go with the others and meet these spirit detectives koenma was talking about" He looked one last time at Amaya's door, then looked at me and nodded as we walked down the hall.
I walked down the hall and saw Hiro, Asako, and Ken walk out of their rooms. I stopped right infront of them "were going to meet the spirit detectives, we might as well make our stay a peaceful one" they nodded and followed no one objecting in the slightest, since Amaya was out that made me temporary Alpha. As we walked into the living room I saw a guy with black slick backed hair and a guy with an Elvis style hair playing video games. looking past them and I saw a guy in the windowsill wearing all black and had spiky black hair and crimson eyes, who was staring out the window but was watching us through the reflection. And lastly a guy come out of the kitchen, he had long red hair and green eyes he had a welcoming look when he looked at us. "you must be Amaya's pack, Koenma has informed us that you will be staying with us for a while, My name Is Kurama, on the windowsill is Hiei and over there is Yusuke and Kuwabara" the redhead said pointing to everyone. I nodded "yes we figured since we will be staying here we might as well introduce ourselves My name Is Isamu, The one next to me is my twin brother Kane, this is Hiro and his mate Asako and the one behind them is Ken" each one nodded in greeting...well except for Ken of course. Kurama nodded and gave a small smile "A pleasure, please excuse me for a moment" I nodded as he went over and stood in front on the TV "HEY WATCH IT KURAMA IM KICKING KUWABARA'S ASS RIGHT NOW AND I NEED TO SEE" yusuke screamed trying to see around kurama's legs "YAH RIGHT URAMESHI IM WAY AHEAD OF YOU!" kuwabara yelled back Kurama just sighed and went over and unplugged the TV, I smirked at their childish ways "HEY WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR?" they both yelled, are my ears bleeding yet? "We have guests, if you havent noticed and your being rather rude, they will be staying with us for a while and you WILL make them feel welcomed otherwise I will refuse to cook for you two tonight" Kurama scolding them. Fearing that they would get no food they nodded, unhappily, and stood up walking over. The one, Yusuke, spoke up first "Hey what's up? The name's Yusuke and this idiot is Kuwabara" kuwabara nodded saying "hey" then suddenly noticed Yusuke just insulted him "HEY IM NOT AN IDIOT URAMESHI YOU TAKE THAT BACK!" He shrieked I started laughing when Kane spoke up laughing as well"they remind me of us brother" I nodded still smiling "indeed they do" this might not be so bad after all.
well after introducing ourselves again Kurama looked at the clock "well I suppose I should get started on dinner" Kane then said something that surprised me "I'll help you Kurama I love to cook" I looked at him like he had six heads as , huh? He never cooked, well not since we were 15, He gave us food poisining for a week, amaya was pissed. though a 5 year old screaming at a 15 year old was pretty funny. He looked at me confused"what?" I opened my mouth then closed it for a second "You never cook" Kane just blushed and looked at the ground "I do so, hey I've gotten so much better! I cooked all the time when we live in human world, where do you think I got our dinners from? I made them. I even spent a little time at a cooking school" I stared blankly at him "WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BROTHER!" I shouted causing everyone (but Hiei and Ken) to laugh, well Kurama was biting his thumb trying not to laugh but failing "of course you can help, I could always use the assistance" Kane nodded while I just shook my head "you never cease to amaze me Kane" he just shrugged and smiled sheepishly then followed Kurama into the kitchen. I turned toward Yusuke and Kuwabara who were relaxing on one of the couches. He looked over "come on guys join us there's no reason to be uptight round here" the others looked at me and I nodded. That was enough for them, they walked over towards the couches. Hiro and Asako sat on the loveseat and Ken went over and leaned against the wall close enough to talk to but far enough to keep his eye on every one. I was about to walk over when a voice stopped me 'hn you may have everyone else fooled….but not me" I looked at the windowsill and saw the Fire demon looking at me with cold eyes. what was his name? henry?...no Hiei! that was it. I smirked 'a telepath huh? How interesting, I can assure you that we pose no threat' his glare did not lessen, and I restrained myself from laughing 'they may trust you…but I do not….consider this fair warning I have my eyes on you' and with that he broke the link. My smirk grew, knowing that for him to watch us, he knew we could be a major threat. 'hm smart boy' i thought to myself, as I sat on the couch.
*Kane's POV*
I was chopping vegetables while Kurama was heating the oven, then he went over to start making desserts. It was decided that I would make dinner and he would make dessert and we would switch tomorrow. He looked over as if he wanted to say something but decided against it and went to wash his hands. I smiled at him "what is it Kurama, you look like you want to say something, were going to be living with each other for a while no sense walking on egg shells around each other" he smiled and dried his hands with a towel. "heh you caught me red handed I suppose, I wanted to say im sorry for your loss, It must be hard for you and the pack" I sighed and continue cutting " thank you and yes its hard, but I worry about Amaya more, to lose both mate and child in one day and to betrayed I cannot imagine the pain" Kurama nodded, careful on how he worded things "How is she?" I put the vegetables in the pot and covered it. Kurama sat down at the table and motioned for me to sit while he poured a cup of tea then handed me it. I thanked him and sat down "Amaya has a lot of responsibilities she tries to remain strong for us but I fear that she may not be able to stay strong if she doesn't mourn" Kurama nodded, understandingly "yes I've heard that the Alpha's role is most vital, they must defend the pack against not only demons but rival packs" I nodded, lets see how much he knows. "yes, you are correct the Alpha is the strongest both mentally and physically, They keep the pack in line as well as watch out for their safety, The alpha's are the only ones that can have pups and that is another burden put on her shoulders" Kurama had a surprised look, I think I know why "please stop me if my assumption is incorrect but isn't Asako?" I cut him off, I knew he would catch on "Pregnant? Yes, she carries Hiro's pups" I smiled at the great news, Kurama frowned, ah so he does know "but I've read that the alpha female has a right... if any female in her pack is pregnant she has a right to kill them and their mate or the pups, banish them from the pack or take the pups as there own, it is disrespectful to the alphas to have pups in the pack" I nodded, He studied well. " yes you knowledge is precise, Amaya has confronted them about the situation and Has allowed them to keep their pups, I believe its due to the fact that she lost her mate and pup that she cannot take theirs, for she doesn't want anyone to go through what she did" Kurama nodded "understandable considering the situation, Amaya has not had an easy life am I right?" I gave a bitter smile, that was putting it midly "you are correct again, though it is not my place to speak of her past even when I am her older brother, what I can tell you is we practically raised her since she was a pup, we were all she had" Kurama nodded and looked at the food " well we should continue to cook dinner before it burns" I laughed and nodded following him. He was an interesting person.
(me-lets leave you in suspense and fast forward a week ^_^)
*Amaya's POV*
I open my eyes and looked around the room in a bit of a haze. I was in my room still and sat up wincing, my muscles were so stiff from not moving. I looked down and realized my outfit has been changed. I was now wearing tight black jeans and a black tank top along with black socks 'Asako must have changed me this morning… Isamu and Kane probably bought the outfit not that I'm complaining.' I stood up from the bed using the night table for support, my legs protesting at the movement. I put on the black vans that were by the bed. Then I stretched feeling my bones crack and pop with each movement, man did that feel goooood. I then went into the bathroom and saw that I was in my Human form, then I remembered the side effects, 'damn Koenma to hell' I thought sighing as I put my hair in a ponytail. walking into the bedroom I looked around once and then went out the door into the hall.
I walked down the hallway, down the stairs into the living room and saw a sight that made me smile. I saw my brothers on the couch playing video games with Yusuke and Kuwabara, Hiro and Asako were in the kitchen at the table have tea and talking to Kurama and Ken was over by Hiei leaning against the wall while Hiei was on the windowsill. Both seem to be enjoying the silence together, everything was peaceful. "Amaya your awake!" Kane shouted when he saw me. 'crap prepare for the death hug' I thought, Jumping off the couch he ran and tackled me, I laughed "yes Kane now please put me down" He did as i asked and the rest of the pack came over and hugged me and to my surprise even Ken!. damn I felt bad for worrying them "yes yes its good to see you too I'm alright, I'm fine" I said the smile never leaving my face. Kurama then walked up " its good to see you awake Amaya would you like me to make you something to eat I can also get you a cup of tea if you want" I nodded, good my pack was well cared for "yes thank you Kurama, your hospitality is greatly appreciated and I thank you for taking such excellent care of my pack" he smiled at my politeness "it was no trouble at all, actually your brother Isamu wanted to make sure there would be no tension with the pack being here" I looked over at Isamu who smiled and nodded his head mischief clear in his eyes, sneaky little imp, dont worry Kurama will get to know the real twins soon enough. "that is not a surprise my brothers step up to the leader role if at anytime I am unable to" Kurama nodded "well if you will excuse me I will go fix you some tea and some food" with that he walked into the kitchen I turned my attention back to the rest of the spirit detectives who's attention was on me. dang this is awkward.
I smiled at them and said " I'm sorry that our first meeting was on terrible terms" Yusuke grinned, luckily he was a good sport "nah no worries its understandable plus this time its much more civil" I nodded, as relief flooded through me "yes it is" I turned around and walked into the Kitchen. I saw Kurama place a plate and a cup on the table, he then looked up and smiled " Here you are Amaya I hope its to your liking" I smiled and thanked him as I sat down and took a bite "this is amazing Kurama I never knew the Great Yoko Kurama was such an amazing cook." He looked shocked but them smirked "and I see your as Knowledgeable as the rumors say, Amaya Chiharu or should I say Dark Damsel?" I smirked, ah did that name bring up memories "ah so you've heard of me?" he nodded "Yes, Former thief and Assassin and an S class demon that was said to have murdered countless of demons who got in her way of the items" I smiled, they made me sound ruthless "yes your are correct, though I did have morals. I Gave them all warnings and a chance to give up, I never harmed women and children or if the person had a family but if challenged I would show no mercy." Kurama smiled, a thief with morals was always respected than a demon with none "I must say I am surprised you do not look like a killer" I smirked "yes and you do not look like a famous thief" he laughed "touché" I laughed as well. It was nice to relax, then he asked how I came to being in allience with Koenma. "Koenma finally made a deal with me, he said If I give the stuff I stole back and give up being a thief and assassin I would not be arrested or charged for the murders" Kurama smirked, knowing there was more to it "I assume you had other plans?" I nodded as a grin spread across my face"yes I said to him that I would give up life as an assassin and a thief, but if I could keep the stuff I stole I would make a treaty with him and create an alliance. what can I saw I like shiny things" Kuram laughed then nodded "I see and he could not pass up such an offer I imagine, I assume The Twins of Chaos were your brothers" I was about to answer when a voice cut me off "yes that was us, we made quite a name for ourselves" I looked over and saw Isamu and Kane leaning against the door way mirroring each others position. They pushed off the wall and came and sat at the table. I smiled at them, yes sneaky little imps they were. "that's only because you would cause so much trouble even on accident…I must say you may accidentally blow up houses but you guys got the items undetected" they grinned, boy did they cause trouble hence the term chaos "we just like to have a little fun" Kane started "Its not our fault we get a little carried away" Isamu finished and I just shook my head. who was I to argue with great details.
I stood up from the table "thank you for the food and tea Kurama, I need to go speak with Koenma now" Kurama nodded and Isamu stood up, uh oh im in trouble. "Before you go Amaya I must speak with you" I nodded and follow him out the kitchen and out the front door. I already knew what was going to happen, I continued to follow him into the forest and once we reached a clearing he stopped and turn to face me with a soft look on his face. "you've grown so much its hard to believe you're the same little annoying Kid….You had to deal with so much, our parents death, getting kicked out of our pack, strive to grow stronger and survive, took on the responsibility of the pack, lost Kiyoshi and Akemi and still managed to stay strong for us….why you its not fair" I looked at him sadly as his voice cracked towards the end, such a big softie my brothers were "Isamu.." he put his head down and started to cry, it took alot for him to cry, which is why I knew he was at his limit "WHY? ITS NOT FAIR WHY DO YOU HAVE TO SUFER!" I walked over to him, my eyes never leaving his shaking form, when one suffers we all suffer "why not me?" he looked shocked and looked up "what?" I looked him in the eyes "Why Not Me…..what makes me different from anyone else…..why should someone else goes through it, through this?" he shook his head "But-" I cut him off quickly "No buts….now you know as well as I do that I must do what I need to do….." he looked at me no longer crying "what are you going to do?" I smirked "ah ah thats my little secret!...and Don't you EVER get tired of saying 'poor her why must she suffer?' It makes a person stronger in my opinion…..I will figure something out after all I WAS raised by the twins of Chaos" he just smirked and nodded then became serious once again "what did Kiyoshi and Akemi say?" i frowned and turned around and started walking, a stray tear making its way down my cheek. I wiped it away befor he noticed he already feeling guilty, trying to hold himself responsible somehow, no sense in making him worry more "you will find out soon enough" with that I stepped through a portal that appeared in front of me and disappeared from Isamu's View.
