The Meeting


Lights aura: I'm back with a new chappie!

Amu: We hope you enjoy it!

Sira woke up to someone poking her. Why did she have to be woken up? She had had such a nice nap. She groaned as she turned over.

"Wake up Sleeping Beauty!" a voice sang as the poking continued.

"Go to hell," Sira mumbled as she tried to scoot away from the poking attack.

"Been there and it sucked. So I decided to come back and harass you for the rest of your life" The voice continued.

Sira sat up and glared at Tori. "You can be so annoying. You know that, right?"

Tori shrugged. "It's a gift."

Now fully awake, Sira realized that she was no longer in the alley where she had passed out. Instead, she was in a small room. Sira looked around in confusion. "Weren't we being attacked by a giant octopus?"

Tori nodded. "Yep, but Kuwabara saved us. You were kind of out of it at the time. You were convinced that chopped sushi was funny."

Sira shrugged. "When I am in shock I think everything is funny. Someone could set me on fire and I would think it was hilarious."

A demonic grin spread across Tori's face.

Sira glared. "Don't even think about it."

"I have no idea what you are talking about" Tori said innocently.

Someone in the doorway cleared her throat. Looking up, they saw a brown haired woman with a smoking cigarette in hand.

"So, you're awake," Shizuru said as she brought the cigarette up to her mouth. "Kuwabara went out a couple of hours ago. He said he wouldn't be back until tomorrow and to stay here."

"You mean we're housebound?" Tori moaned.

Sira cocked an eyebrow. "We would have been lying around if we were back at my house so what's the difference?"

"I am being forced too" Tori replied.

"Anyway," Shizuru continued, "I have to go out today and won't be back until later tonight. You are welcome to what ever you need just don't completely destroy the house."

"Roger!" Sira said as she saluted Shizuru.

"You can count on us!" Tori added as she saluted as well.

Shizuru just shook her head before leaving the room.

"So," Sira said as she stood up. "What time is it?"

"Two in the afternoon," Tori replied.

"WHAT? I have wasted half a day away? Noooo!" Sira said as she collapsed on the ground.

Tori shook her head. "Well, it's your own fault. I tried to wake you up but all you did was turn over and mutter about cinnamon buns and Chris Evans."

"Mmm, a perfect combination," Sira said dreamily. "And you know not all of us can be morning people."

"Yes, that ability seems to only be reserved for amazing people such as myself" Tori said with pride.

Sira glared. "Just for that, I'm going back to sleep."

"No! We must explore!" Tori said as she tugged Sira to her feet.

As they walked out into the hall, Sira grasped Tori's shoulder.

"What?" Tori asked.

"Really long wooden hallway. You know what that means…"

Tori's face lit up as she grinned. "Sock Sliding!"

They both checked their socks before they prepared themselves. With a running start, they slid down the hallway. Sira came to a gentle stop while Tori barreled into the wall.

"Ow!" Tori moaned as she rubbed her head.

"Ha! That probably woke the neighbors up" Sira said with a grin.

"Unlike you, they were up hours ago" Tori teased.

Sira glared. "You're mean and I'm hungry."

"Wow, ADD much?" Tori asked.

"Shut up! Let's go raid the fridge and find something amusing on TV."

Tori grinned. "Oh, that's sounds like fun!"

Glancing in the fridge, the girls found themselves staring at strange and unusual food. The only food they could identify was the ramen, the basic food source for any college freshman, and rice balls. After finding something that looked somewhat edible, the girls collapsed on the couch in front of the TV.

"Oh, this couch is comfy" Sira said as she snuggled into the pile of pillows that littered the sofa.

"I wonder what's on," Tori said as she flipped on the TV. She began to flip through the channels.

A flash of colors caught Sira's attention. "Oh, stop there!" She said as she pointed to the screen.

"What?" Tori's eyes widened. "Oh my god, Japanese Power Rangers!"

Sira leaned back on her arms. "When you were little, didn't you always want to be a power ranger?"

Tori grinned. "But of course. Which one did you want to be?"

"The pink ranger. How about you?"

"I wanted to be the yellow because everyone wanted to be pink" Tori said.

"Ah, defying society's standards even at a young age." Sira nodded. "You are amazing."

"Thank you," Tori frowned, "These rangers look different from the ones I remember."

"That's because this is the Japanese version." Sira said. Then with a grin, she kicked the air. "Take that!"

"What are you trying to hit?" Tori asked.

"The spirit of the octopus that tried to eat me" Sira said. "I hope he goes to hell."

"Me too," Tori sighed, "Okay bored of power rangers, changing the channel."

The rest of the day was spent eat sugary foods and watching TV. By the time evening arrived, they were insanely hyper. As Shizuru walked into the house, she was greeted by two hyper bouncing girls

Shizuru blinked. "What the hell?" She said as she dropped her groceries.

"Hey Shizuru!" Tori said with a wave.

"Need any help?" Sira added.

"What's wrong with you two?" Shizuru asked.

Tori laughed. "Yeah, funny story actually. You see we weren't sure what was exactly edible so we went for the food that we knew…which happened to be ramen and food that had lots of sugar in it and well, now we're hyper!"

"You can take the food to the kitchen," Shizuru said, still eyeing them carefully.

Sira and Tori each grabbed a bag and headed towards the kitchen. They sat down while Shizuru prepared dinner. They tried to protest but she said that in the state they were in, she didn't want them anywhere near a knife.

"So, anything interesting going on in the outside world?" Sira asked as she bounced in her seat.

"Well, Kuwabara found me and told me to tell you that you're scheduled to meet Koenma tomorrow afternoon."

"Oh, we get to meet the big man, I feel special," Tori said.

"He'll probably just try and erase are memories," Sira said. "Your brother didn't happen to mention why we are meeting Koenma, did he?"

"No, and I don't care either. What my brother does on his own time is his business not mine." She handed them each a plate. "Now eat up."


After eating dinner, they took their showers; thanked Shizuru again for her hospitality, then went to bed. After a few minutes of silence past, Sira called out. "Hey, Tori?"

"What?"

"Are you awake?"

"No, I'm just talking in my sleep." Tori sat up in her bed and faced Sira. "What's up?"

"I was thinking," Sira began, "Why do you think we're here?"

"So we don't get eaten by another creepy demon?" Tori asked.

Sira shook her head. "No, that's not what I meant. What I mean is why were we sent here? We've got to have a purpose, right?"

"That's a good question," Tori said, her brows furrowed as she thought. "We're not exactly helpful. I mean, look what happened last night. We would have been dead if it weren't for Kuwabara."

"That's what I don't get," Sira said as she sat up. "In every single Mary Sue story, the sues have an amazing power."

"But we have already established the fact that we aren't sues" Tori reminded her.

"Yeah, but still, this whole thing is messed up. In every story, there's an evil character that only the heroes can destroy."

"Hey Si, this isn't a story, this is real," Tori quickly added, "so to speak."

"Yeah, but still, I feel something's not quite right" Sira said with a frown.

"Fine you keep brooding over that thought" Tori said as she sunk back down in her bed. "I however, plan on waking up tomorrow morning."

"Party pooper" Sira teased as she too sunk back in her bed. In minutes, they were both asleep.


Tori yawned as she sat up in her bed. Glancing over at Sira, she saw that her friend was still completely out. Since they still had a long time before their meeting with Koenma, Tori decided to let her sleep. The later in the day it was, the less likely Sira would try to rip her head off. Tori changed back into her clothes from the day before then went to the bathroom. She stuck her tongue out at the reflection in the mirror. She had the worst case of bed hair in the morning. Grabbing a hair brush, she began to brush her hair out. After ten minutes, she had her hair looking some what decent. She wasn't too pleased with herself since she had no makeup on and there was only so much one could do with a brush.

"Sira and I really need to find a way to go shopping" Tori muttered as she exited the bathroom. She slowly walked towards the kitchen. She was about to enter the kitchen when she noticed that there were three people at the table. She quickly turned around. Unfortunately, she wasn't fast enough.

"Hey Tori! Come and have breakfast with us!" Kuwabara called from the table.

"I'd rather not. I look like a hag," Tori said as she tried to slink away.

"You look fine, Tori" Shizuru said, "now sit down and eat."

Tori grumbled slightly but did as she was told. As she slid into her seat next to Kuwabara, she looked at the other two males. Both Yusuke and Kurama were studying her, something she found rather unnerving. "Hey isn't there supposed to be another one of you?" She asked hoping they would quit staring.

"Yeah, but he's not coming," Yusuke said with a grin. "We'll be coming with you when you visit Koenma."

"Yeah," Tori yawned as Shizuru placed a plate of food in front of her. "I would show more excitement if it weren't for the fact that Sira kept me up all night."

The guys chuckled at this.

"Am I correct in saying that you are Tori?" Kurama asked.

Tori nodded as she swallowed. "Yep, and I already know who you two are. You are Shuichi Minamino also known as Yoko Kurama and the guy next two you is Yusuke Urameshi, a half demon. And to answer you're next question: no, I am not a stalker."

Both Kurama and Yusuke looked at her in surprise.

"How does she know that?" Yusuke demanded.

Kuwabara shrugged. "Beats me, they haven't told me yet." He looked towards Tori. "So, are you going to explain how you know?"

"I am enjoying my breakfast now" Tori said as she swallowed another bite.

Kuwabara glanced back to the hallway. "Do you think we should wake Sira up?"

Tori shook her head. "Not unless you want your head bitten off. The later you wake her up the better. She's like a rabid bear from hell in the morning."

The side of Kurama's mouth twitched. "That's an interesting description."

Tori shrugged. "Yeah, it's interesting but it's also true."

A loud crash resounded from inside the house. All three boys quickly stood up.

"What was that?" Kuwabara asked in alarm.

"Probably just Sira falling out of her bed again" Tori said.

"Does she do that often?" Kurama asked as the boys sat back down.

Tori nodded.

A couple of seconds later, a string of curses echoed down the hallway.

"Damn, she sure can curse" Yusuke said in amazement.

Tori shrugged. "She's a writer and believes that no word should have more power over another word that means the exact thing."

"That sounds reasonable," Kurama said.

The sound of feet dragging against the ground alerted them that Sira was on her way. A second later, she appeared in the doorway. She had already changed clothes and had thrown her hair into a loose half bun. She let out a loud yawn as she rubbed her eyes.

"Fall out of bed again?" Tori asked sweetly.

"The bed doesn't believe in preventing me from rolling over." Bleary-eyed she blinked a couple of times as she stared at the table.

"Yes, there are more people here," Tori said with a grin.

Sira grunted in acknowledgement as she dragged a chair towards the table. As soon as she sat down she put her arms, then her head on the table.

"Sira!" Tori whined. "Don't go back to sleep. Don't you want to meet Yusuke and Kurama?"

"They can come back later" Sira mumbled.

"But they're here right now," Tori pointed out.

"Unless they have cinnamon buns or Chris Evans, I'm not interested." Sira muttered.

"Who is Chris Evans?" Kuwabara asked.

"The guy who played the Human Torch in Fantastic Four. For some reason, she's become obsessed with him" Tori explained.

"That's cause he's really hott" Sira said. "No pun intended."

"What are cinnamon buns?" Yusuke asked.

Tori gasped as Sira shot up and stared at him. "What!" Sira exclaimed. "You've never had cinnamon buns? You poor deprived child." She looked from Kuwabara to Kurama. "Please tell me you have heard of cinnamon buns."

Both shook their heads.

"That's it! When I get back today I'm making cinnamon buns!"

Tori giggled. "Hey, you reminded me of Donkey from Shrek."

"That is exactly how I intended it to sound like."

"Well, that is utter genius!"

"Thank you very much, you are too kind."

"Those two are rather peculiar" Kurama said.

"I still can't get over how quickly Sira woke up" Yusuke said as he blinked. "What, did she take caffeine pills or something?"


After breakfast, Sira and Tori went back to their rooms to finish getting ready. When they were done, it was time for them to go.

"Hurry up you two!" Kuwabara yelled. "We can't miss the portal." Both girls rushed into the living room.

"Okay! Okay! Don't get your knickers in a twist" Sira mumbled as she put her hair up again.

"What?" Yusuke asked.

"You know that is a really old saying" Tori remarked.

Sira shrugged. "Yeah, but I like old things. They make me seem wise and important."

"It makes you seem weird," Tori said.

"The portal is arriving" Kurama announced causing both girls to stop bickering.

The portal was circular shaped. It glowed and wavered before them.

"Everyone ready to go?" Kuwabara asked.

Sira and Tori nodded.

Yusuke stepped through first followed by Tori and Sira then Kurama and Kuwabara.

The lobby was chaotic. Demons were rushing from one place to another desperately trying to accomplish their jobs.One such demon nearly collided into the group.

"Ow!" Tori moaned as she rubbed her arm. "I was just side-swiped by an ogre."

"Now that doesn't happen every day," Sira joked.

"Koenma's office is this way" Kurama said as he motioned them to follow him.

They followed the demon through a maze of halls before reaching Koenma's office.

"Why is his office so freakin far away" Sira moaned as they walked into the office.

"Well, at least we got some exercise" Tori said with a grin.

"You're intentionally being optimistic just so you can annoy, aren't you?" Sira asked.

"Pretty much."

The office was much bigger than they imagined it to be. Book cases covered the walls while stacks of paper cluttered the ground.

"So, you are the two girls I've heard about" a voice said. The girls glanced up to see a boy with a pacifier sitting behind a desk.

"It is an honor to meet you Lord Koenma" Sira said as Tori and she bowed.

Koenma lifted an eyebrow. "You were right, Kuwabara. They do seem to know a lot."

Both girls laughed sheepishly.

"Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, please go see Botan. She has a couple of things she has to give you" Koenma said.

Kuwabara and Kurama nodded as they headed to the door.

"I am not a spirit detective anymore and the little twerp still bosses me around," Yusuke muttered.

"I heard that Yusuke!" Koenma yelled as the doors shut behind Yusuke.

Both the girls began to giggle.

"As for you two" Koenma said directing his attention towards Sira and Tori. "I know for a fact that you are not from this dimension."

"What!" Sira said in surprised.

"How do you know that?" Tori asked.

"There is no file, record, or anything related to you in this world" Koenma explained. "And since a portal from another dimension opened without my consent, I only had to put two and two together."

"We have no idea how that portal appeared" Sira said. "Though I believe it was that stupid email's fault."

Tori groaned. "It was not the email!"

Koenma frowned "Email? What email?"

Tori sighed. "There was this stupid email in Sira's mailbox that asked if we wanted to play a game. Just for fun I clicked yes…"

"And then the lights blacked out" Sira finished.

"They are not related," Tori said.

Sira frowned. "Then how come the creepy furry molester asked us if we were ready to play the game?"

Tori sighed. "I still think he was a figment of our imaginations."

"Yeah, and I suppose ending up here and almost being eaten by a giant octopus is part of our imaginations as well."

"Enough!" Koenma said as he rubbed his temples. "You two are giving me a headache."

"Sorry," they both mumbled.

Letting his arms drop, he glanced back at them. "I didn't call you in here to interrogate you. From Kuwabara's statement you do not seem to pose a threat."

"Then why did you call us in here?" Tori asked curiously.

Koenma let out a sigh before meeting their anxious gazes. "The reason why I called you here is because your dimension has vanished."


Amu: Geez, a cliffhanger. I didn't see that one coming.

Lights aura: I hate to do this, but I will not upload the next chappie until I get at least one review. I get slightly discouraged when I don't receive responses.

Amu: So please remember to READ and REVIEW!
