To Grandmother's House We Go


L.A.: Hello everyone!

Amu: After a long time, we're back.

L.A.: With a shiny new chapter. Bask in its shininess.

Amu: (is basking in its shininess)

L.A.: Anyway, enjoy!

Out-Of-Control-Authoress: Thanks for the review! I'm glad you liked it!

UpperClassK9: Thanks for the review! This story is actually set later in the series when Kuwabara is attending that smart college. People often show him as the dumb idiot, which although he does do stupid things, he really isn't. He is brash and I probably haven't conveyed that aspect of him as much as I should. I'll work on that. Thanks for telling me!

Spidey meets Wizard-Theif: Thanks for the review you two! Crap, I didn't even realize all the Disney references. Disney's brainwashed me and I didn't even know it. As to who is the snitch...I won't tell… it's too much fun watching the reviewers suffer. (pauses) I promise I'm not this cynical by nature.

MagicAnimeGirl: Thanks for the review! I'm so glad you think my characters aren't Mary Sues I really am working on developing oc's that seem real. Don't worry, I'm not planning on stopping suddenly anytime soon.

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho. (sighs) It would be nice though…


As they stepped through the portal, they found the place as busy as usual. Tori and Sira were prepared this time so they were able to avoid being side swiped. The ogre from their previous visit came up to greet them.

"Tori, Sira, would you follow me," Ogre said, "Koenma's on a tight schedule." He glanced at the others. "The rest of you may wait here."

As they watched them leave, Hiei glanced down to see Haku standing next to him. Haku looked up at him and wagged his tail. Hiei glared. Haku glared back. Hiei fingered the hilt of his sword…and Haku took off running.

With a whine, he zipped through the ogres and jumped into Sira's arms. "It's okay, Haku," She said as she propped him against her shoulder. "You can come."

As he was being carried away, Haku looked back at Hiei and stuck his tongue out.


"Sit down, sit down," Koenma said distractedly as they sat down in the chairs in front of his desk. "We've need to discuss your living arrangements."

Tori frowned. "What's wrong with our living arrangements?"

"Yeah," Sira said as she petted Haku. "We like living at Kuwabara's house."

Koenma sighed as he rubbed his forehead with the palm of his hand. "That's fine but you seem to not be safe there. Therefore, as of now, you will be living at Genkai's."

"What!" Tori and Sira yelled.

"We can't go to Genkai's!" Tori said.

"She'll murder us," Sira added.

"You're not training with her," Koenma said. "You're just staying there until things cool off around here."

"This is ridiculous," Sira said. "We've haven't been in that much trouble."

Koenma raised an eyebrow. "You were nearly erased from existence."

"Technically, that wasn't the demons fault. It was your dimension's fault."

"Yeah, nothing much has happened to me either," Tori said. "I've just been attacked by bats…and snakes…and bat and snake demons." She frowned. "Wow, I never noticed it but there's actually a pattern."

"Enough!" Koenma yelled, silencing both of them. "I am under a lot of stress right now, my dad's coming in a week to check on progress, and these demons who keep wreaking havoc aren't helping. These are all out of my control but the one thing I can control is where you are staying." His face was bright red. "So, you are staying at Genkai's understand?"

"Yes sir," Sira said as Tori and she nodded vigorously.

As they followed ogre out, Sira leaned toward Tori and whispered. "Geez, he's a little anal."

A thought occurred to Tori. She quickly spun around and said. "Koenma?"

"What?" He asked with exasperation.

"By any chance, did you hire an ogre named Carl to be a bodyguard?"

"What?" Koenma said in alarm. "No why, is there a problem?"

"No," Tori said, an uneasy feeling settled in her stomach. "It's nothing."


The next day, all their belongings were packed in a small blue Honda.

"This sucks," Kuwabara muttered. "With you gone, Shizuru will harass me even more."

Tori and Sira looked at the house forlornly before crawling in the car with Kurama, Kuwabara, and Yusuke.

The drive was an hour long. Most of it was spent joking and laughing but towards the end, Sira and Tori started to panic.

"This sucks," Sira said as she nearly choked the life out of Haku. "She's going to make us balance on needles with our pointer fingers. Knowing me, the needle will go through my finger, into my eye, and then if I'm lucky, I'll die."

"I really wish I worked out more when I was in college," Tori sighed. "Maybe then I could run a little bit before she catches me and murders me."

"It won't be that bad," Kurama said.

"Yeah," Yusuke added. "If you're lucky she'll murder you while you're sleeping."

"Urameshi!" Kuwabara said as the girls began to moan.

The car slowed to a stop in front of a temple.

Kuwabara and Yusuke immediately got out and start to play fight while Kurama walked around and opened the door for Tori.

Both girls huddled together in the back seat staring wide-eyed.

"Come on," Kurama said as he held his hand out. "It's going to be alright."

Trying not to blush, Tori accepted his hand and stepped out. Sira scrambled after her with Haku cradled to her chest.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO DOING ON MY FRONT YARD!" a voice yelled from the temple.

Sira and Tori nearly jumped three feet as Kuwabara and Yusuke stood stock still.

An elderly woman walked towards them. Although she looked old, they could see the power she held in her was someone you didn't want to mess with. She glared at Kuwabara and Yusuke. "Why am I not surprised it's you two idiots who are messing up my lawn."

Yusuke smirked. "Hello to you to, Grandma."

Genkai chose to ignore Yusuke's attempt to make fun of her age. Instead, she raised an eyebrow as she looked Sira and Tori up and down. "So, these are the girls staying here? They're pretty scrawny."

"I'm not scrawny," Sira muttered. "I'm svelte."

A glare from Genkai silenced her as Tori promptly stepped on Sira's foot.

Genkai let out a sigh. "Just take your stuff inside. We'll discuss rooms later."

The girls were more than happy to oblige as they quickly grabbed as much as they could carry and scurried past her.

"Wow," Yusuke said. "I've never seen them so cooperative before."

"Hey idiot," Genkai said as she rounded on him. "You've been slacking off. I did not train you so that you could be a lazy fat ass." She got into his face. "From what I heard, they nearly died about six or seven times. What the hell have you been doing?"

Kuwabara snickered and she quickly rounded on him. "I'm talking to you too, moron. I'm just as pissed as Koenma is about this."

As Kuwabara pouted Yusuke said. "Why do they keep going after Tori and Sira anyway? I mean, they don't even have any powers."

"I don't know," Genkai said as she crossed her arms. "And that's why I don't like it."


From the hill, Socrates had a perfect view of the temple. He smirked as he continued to watch them. "So this is where they're planning to hide." He laughed slightly as he faded back into the shadows. "This is going to be interesting."


L.A.: Muwahaha! Genkai has appeared! And good old Socrates is back. You thought I forgot him, didn't you? Anywho, can anyone guess where the line Sira says about being scrawny is from? Huh, anyone? Anyone?

Amu: (is burnt) I hurt.

L.A.: What happened to you?

Amu: The shininess of the chapter gave me sun burn.

L.A.: Aw, sorry. Don't worry, you'll live.

Amu: (sarcastically) I appreciate how much you care for my physical health.

L.A.: Aw, don't sulk. There's an apple pie here you can eat.

Amu: (gets really excited at the mention of pie)

L.A.: Anywho, you know what to do. READ and REVIEW!
