Chapter 73: Yumi's Old Lover Returns

(In the early evening hours in the Human World; Inside of Pegasus's castle)

Inside of Pegasus's castle, we find Jasmine, Yuka, Eri, Ayumi, Kuwabara, Joey, Tristan, Mai, Shippo, Kirara, Koga, Ayame, Koenma, Botan were at the living room, waiting for something or someone to come in. Just then, a large portal appears in the air in front of them and out of the portal, Genki, Keiko, Hikari, Kira, Zane, Syrus, Ryoko, Inuyasha, Holly, Miroku, Sango, Kurama, Yugi, and Tea come through the gateway. Soon after, the gateway closes behind them as the rest of our heroes and heroines come over to greet them.

Joey says, with a smile, "Hey guys, welcome back!"

Yugi tells Joey, "It's great to be back, Joey!"

Mai looks at Keiko's new appearance and she yells out, shocked, "Good God, Keiko! What the hell happened to you!?"

Keiko says, with smile, with a blush, "Sorry, Mai! I guess I forgot to chance!" To everyone's, except for Genki, Keiko, Hikari, Kira, Zane, Syrus, Ryoko, Inuyasha, Holly, Miroku, Sango, Kurama, Yugi, and Tea, Keiko transforms back to her human form.

Yuka says, stunned, "No way! How did you do that!?"

Keiko says, with a smile, "Actually, that's my new form, namely my new 'To-zoku' form!"

Koga, Ayame, and Hiei gasp in shock and Hiei yells out, with a rare very serious and stunned tone, "What?! That's a lie! The To-zoku vanished from the plains of the Demon World centuries ago!"

Genki asks Hiei, "You know what in the world a 'To-zoku' is?!"

Koenma tells Genki, with a plain tone, "The To-zoku is an all female-demon kind that is S-class demons that vanished from the view of most demons in Demon World many centuries ago, but they have existed for many millennia."

Botan then says, with a serious tone, "They became good allies of the Ma-zoku and the To-zoku rival the Ma-zoku in power and warrior ability."

Kuwabara yells out, stunned, "These demons rival the Ma-zoku in power?!"

Koenma nods his head and says, "Yes, but they held more than just raw demonic power. The To-zoku is powerful in the realms of mystical and super-natural energies and it is said that they can summon powerful 'dark' spirits. They worship an incredible 'dark power', one of the most powerful dark forces that the positive forces of the universe have, and they are honorable warriors. They fight with a strict honor code, but that doesn't mean that they won't kill someone as long as it doesn't violate their honor code. The To-zoku is a being of Light and Darkness and they have the ability to harness the powers of nature and the elements along with their demonic, super-natural, and mystical powers. However, the To-zoku tribe can't come into the human world without becoming part of a human being, making them into a half-demon of sorts by 'fusing' with their new human 'host'."

Eri asks, curiously, "And Keiko is a To-zoku?"

Koenma replies, with a plain tone, "Actually, Keiko is half To-zoku."

Keiko says, with a smile, "That's right! I've pasted that Valley of the Ends tests and became this half To-zoku demon."

Mr. Pegasus says, with a smile, "I'm glad that you've got that power, Keiko!"

Syrus asks, curiously, "Wait! I've got a question! You say that once Keiko defeats Yusuke in a duel and bring him back from Sartorius's control. How could she do that if Yusuke can pull out that one turn kill move?"

Mia says, plainly, "Hate to admit, but Truesdale may have a point. There's a chance that Sartorius gave both Urameshi and Kagome the ability to make a One-Turn Kill move."

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "I may be able to answer that for you, Sy." Koenma calls out, seriously, "Okay, Jun, you may come out now!" Soon after, to everyone's amazement, a figure of spiritual aura came by which appeared to be a male figure. This male spirit appeared to be a seventeen-year-old boy with blonde well-combed hair and green eyes. He was well-built, with a red shirt, jeans, and white sneakers.

Hikari asks, curiously, "Uh! Koenma, who the hell is this?"

The male spiritual figure replies, in a teenage boy voice, "I'm Jun Razel, it's an honor to meet with you all. I could ask how your friends, Yusuke Urameshi and Kagome Higurashi could have gotten the ability to end duels in one turn. You see, I've known this girl, since I was thirteen-years-old and she was a great duelist! Plus, she was really smart, kind, and the most beautiful girl in the world, but had a roughly start of a relationship. As the year went on, we've fallen in love and it didn't matter if I was the captain of a football team and she was an outcast, I'd stay with her! Oh did I love her and I still do."

Hiei says, in an annoyed tone, "If you're going to speak of something trivial and foolish, I'm out of here, before lose my appetite." With that, Hiei left the room and Eri asks, curiously, "What happened next?"

Jun replies, solemnly, "Until one day, this other girl, which proved to be the captain of the cheerleaders of our school, came onto me."

Kira says, in an annoyed tone, "So, let me guess, this girl that you loved so much saw you guys and thought that you were breaking up with her."

Jun says, seriously, "I'd never do that to her, so I went to her place so I could explain, but it was too late. She jumped off the apartment complex and onto the pavement. When she died, a part of me had died, along with her and there wasn't any point on living."

Keiko says, horrified, "That's terrible! Who was this girl that you loved?"

Jun replies, "Her name was Yumi Keyo and I'd never hurt her like that, but I did! There was no excuse, I blamed myself for her death, so I took mine on life, when I drove off the bridge in my car and drowned at a nearby lake. I just wanted to be with her, even in death."

Inuyasha says, in a serious tone, "I hate to be a bother, but how does this reflect on this 'One-Turn Kill' thing?"

Jun replies, seriously, "I've seen the duels, where Yusuke and Kagome have won their duels in one turn! I believed that somehow Yumi was helping them in spirit and when I went to Koenma, there was no doubt about it. I wanted to see her and tell her that I'm sorry as how much I love her."

Tea says, with a smile, "That's so sweet."

Joey says, in a serious tone, "Wait a sec! If this Yumi girl is the one, who's been givin' Yusuke and Kagome 'One-Turn Kill' tips, then she must have met with Sartorius and gave her lies about you not loving her!"

Kurama says, in a serious tone, "That could be it!"

Keiko says, in an annoyed tone, "If that's the case, then Sartorius must be a bigger jerk than I gave him credit for."

Zane asks Koenma, curiously, "Koenma, you said that in order for Yusuke or Kagome to be freed from Sartorius's control, if they would have lost a duel, right? However, in their first year in Duel Academy, they've lost a few of their duels, namely Kelly's, Kagome's and Catherine's defeat with one of the Shadow Riders, Amnael."

Keiko asks, curiously, "Shadow Riders?"

Ryoko says, seriously, "That's right! They were these seven ruthless no good duelists who wanted to release these nasty cards called the Sacred Beast cards! If these cards were taken out, then the whole world would be destroyed."

Eri asks, horrified, "Destroyed!? Why would anyone would want to get those cards out!?"

Ryoko replies, "We believed that the leader of the Shadow Riders, Kagemaru, who was the former chairman of Duel Academy was crazy and we learned that he wanted to use the power of those cards to become 'young', again."

Shippo says, shocked, "Whoa! That's got to be some power!"

Syrus says, seriously, "And it wasn't long until Yusuke and Jaden put Kagemaru in his place! I'll tell ya, the Shadow Riders were weird and scary. Like there was the first Shadow Rider, Nightshroud, who was really Atticus."

Yuka yells out, shocked, "What!? You mean that Atticus was a Shadow Rider!"

Zane says, seriously, "That's right! However, he was being controlled until Jaden brought him back to his senses."

Ryoko says, "We thought that dealing with the other Shadow Riders would be a breeze. However, we were wrong when the second Shadow Rider, Camula, came into the picture."

Syrus says, plainly, "Camula wanted to resurrect her vampire clan with the power of the Sacred Beasts and she defeated our teacher, Dr. Crowler, Lyon, and Zane, who could have won, if Camula hadn't played a dirty trick on him. However, it was Kagome, who defeated her and freed Zane, Lyon, and Dr. Crowler. Then, the third Shadow Rider, Tanya, came into the picture and somehow brainwash Bastion to fall in love with her, which got him defeated. Later, Tanya challenged Yusuke to duel her and if he lost then, he'd become Tanya's husband."

Keiko yells out, shocked and with a hint of jealously, "Husband!?"

Kira nods her head and he says, "That's right! I could tell that Yusuke was pissed off greatly about it. He's kept on saying that 'romance is such an overrated emotion' in a cold voice and the same with Kagome, also."

Miroku says, in a serious tone, "More like it's Sartorius's work."

Syrus says, in a plain tone, "Anyways, Yusuke ruthlessly defeated Tanya in the duel, which was a shock to all of us. Then, the fourth Shadow Rider was Abodis the Third, who was never defeated, but he turned out to be a fake, when we found out that his servants let him win all the time or he'd feed them to the lions and in the end, Jaden defeated him. The fifth Shadow Rider was a big guy named Titan, who captured Alexis to get her to duel and if she won then Atticus's memories will return. In the end, Alexis won that duel and got Atticus's memories back. Soon after, Kagemaru hired a few duelists to get the keys, but in the end Yusuke, Kira, Kari, Catherine, Kelly, Kagome, and Jaden defeated them. Next, the next Shadow Rider, namely Don Zaloog and his team, came in and tried to steal the keys, but Chazz Princeton came by and defeated them. The final Shadow Rider was Amnael and he defeated Alexis, Kira, Kari, Kagome, Catherine, Kelly, and Chazz and got their keys. Then, Amnael challenged Yusuke and Jaden to a two-against-one duel and in the middle of the duel, Amnael revealed himself as our dear teacher, Professor Banner. Professor Banner wanted the power of the Sacred Beast to become human, since he was using a homunculus's body and his original body was in no use anymore. However, Yusuke and Jaden defeated him and Professor Banner begged for forgiveness, after he warned us about the leader of the Shadow Riders. Finally, the leader of the Shadow Riders, Kagemaru came into the picture and freed the Sacred Beast cards and used them against Yusuke and Jaden. During the duel, something weird happened it turned out all of our dueling cards, with the exception of Yusuke's and Jaden's cards, were being drained and gone blank."

Yuka says, seriously, "That happened with my cards too!"

Eri says, plainly, "Me too!"

Mia says, in a serious tone, "I wondered why my dueling cards went blank like that and now I know why."

Ryoko says, in a plain tone, "You must know that Kagemaru wanted to gain eternal youth to drain the energy from the dueling cards and the reason why Urameshi's and Jaden's cards were unaffected was he still needed them to keep his youth. But, after he was given his youth back, Yusuke and Jaden defeated him, as well."

Keiko thinks in her mind, "Even though, he's not a spirit detective anymore, Yusuke's still saving people at the cost of his life."

Zane says, in a serious tone, "However, with Kagome's, Catherine's, and Kelly's defeat with Amnael, how come she's still under Sartorius's control."

Koenma replies, "That's because Sartorius has half control of Yusuke, Kagome, Catherine, and Kelly, however Sartorius could get in control of their minds at any point."

Yuka asks, in an angered tone, "Hey, Koenma, do you know where Sartorius is now!?"

Eri says, in a serious tone, "I want to make that asshole pay for using our friends as tools and hurting Keiko in the process!"

Koenma says, "However, I don't know where Sartorius is at the moment, but I can assure you that my new spirit detective is getting his training with Genkai as we speak."

Keiko says, perplexed, "New Spirit Detective!?"

Koenma nods his head and he says, seriously, "That's right, Keiko! I can't reveal his identity, yet, since he's another 'Chosen Duelist' that Sartorius needs in his plans."

Kuwabara yells out, shocked, "The new spirit detective is another 'Chosen Duelist'. Because if that's the case, then there's a good chance that asshole would take to go to him for his or her powers!"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "That's right, Kuwabara! I want that madman's hands not to touch him! I've lost a good spirit detective to him, I don't want to lose another one."

Hikari says, seriously, "You don't have to, Koenma! If we find him or her, then we'll protect him from that fucking son of a bitch and bring back my cousin and brother from him!"

Pegasus says, in a plain tone, "That's good to hear! We must find the other 'Chosen Duelists' as soon as possible!"

Koenma looks at Keiko and he says, seriously, "However, Keiko needs training on her newly 'demonic' powers. So, she'll have to sit out on this mission for at least a week."

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "That's fine!" Keiko asks Pegasus, "Excuse me, Mr. Pegasus, I was wondering if I could go back home for the week."

Pegasus asks, "What for?"

Keiko replies, "There's something I need to take care of at home." Keiko thinks in her mind, in a dark angered tone, "There are a few unsettled businesses that I need to do! That's related to my 'role' of bringing Yusuke into the hands of that damn asshole!"
