This chapter is almost all
explanation. -_-‘ Filler stuff that explains some important stuff about the
latter parts of this story, and now we will be getting into the part where Rei
discovers (practically all at once) that she’s a bit more tied to demons than
she thought. No, she is not a demon. I repeat: Rei ish not a demon.
Now that that’s out of the
way…
Disclaimer: I do not own
Yu Yu Hakusho. By some awful twist of fate, I was not gifted with the idea for
YYH prior to the great artist of the manga. Of course, I prolly was still
living the true events of this story at the time…O.o
P.S. I have no idea where
the idea for this chapter title came from. I just wrote it in and it sounded
good.
P.P.S. At the time I was
checking this story, I had 1000 hits but only 22 reviews. 0_o.
Chapter 11: Demonic
Kittens
All day at school, I
couldn’t help but glance up the row at Shuichi. He hadn’t said anything to me
as we rode the bus to school, nor had he mentioned anything during breakfast. I
had doubted he would, considering he had waited until we were in the laundry
room to even bring it up. Whatever it was, Shiori-san, Hatanaka-san, and
Kokoda-kun were entirely ignorant of it.
Shuichi sat with me at
lunch, both of us ignoring the glares from other students in the class.
However, still, he said nothing. We probably would have been overheard there,
anyway. When classes concluded, Shuichi led the way to the bus stop again. But
instead of getting off at our normal stop, we continued on, past the normal
city. It was when we got off at the front of the temple steps that I recognized
Genkai-san’s temple.
“Didn’t we already try
this once?”
“It isn’t Master Genkai we
will be asking,” Shuichi said, throwing a small smile over his shoulder as we
ascended. “Botan has found some interesting information I think you might want
to hear.”
“Hey! Get off the wrong
stop again, or are you following him
home now?” asked a faintly familiar voice, full of the cock and spite that made
me recall him without even having to see his face. Of course, he made an
appearance anyway, making it just that much more displeasurable.
“Yusuke, I thought you
were in detention today,” Shuichi said, though a knowing smirk had crept into
his green eyes.
“Unfortunately, I do have
to follow him home at the moment,” I muttered hotly, recalling what I’d said
earlier. “I take it that he’s Yusuke Urameshi?” I glanced at Kurama rather than
asking the boy directly. I was being rude, but no more than Urameshi was.
“I take it you’ve met?”
Shuichi chuckled. “Yusuke doesn’t like surprises.” He turned to the other boy,
whom I noted wryly was still wearing that odd green uniform. “This is Rei
Galis, my friend from school.”
Yusuke’s brown eyes widened. “No, shit, huh?! The possessed chick?”
I scowled. “I am not possessed, you imbecilic—”
“Calm down, Rei, this is
not the time,” Shuichi said, though he hid a smile. “And you may say something
you regret.”
I blinked up at him, but
shrugged. “He’s still an imbecilic little brat.”
Yusuke started to protest,
but the sudden appearance of the tall, carrot-top boy from last time turned his
attention away. “Urameshi, stop messing around, Genkai-obaasan wants to see
you.”
“Tell the old hag to—”
“DIMWIT!”
I laughed as the boy made
his way up the stairs at the sudden shout from the voice I recognized as the
little old lady. She had a powerful set of lungs.
The carrot-top smiled
lopsidedly at me. “So you’re the girl
Kurama’s been talking about so much.”
I remembered that name from last time, and now hearing it again, I raised both
brows at the carrot-top. “I’m sorry, but who is Kurama-san?”
“That would be me,”
Shuichi said smoothly. “You will find out soon enough, Rei, but for now, let’s
continue on. Kuwabara, will you go ahead and make sure that Botan and Koenma
are ready?”
The carrot-top nodded and
ran almost faster than I was sure a normal human could. But I could sense—was
that the right word?—that he wasn’t normal, but he was human. “He…”
“Kuwabara has a high
spirit energy, and has trained his body to fight demons at quite high levels,”
Shuichi—Kurama?—explained. “All four of us are fighters.”
“Four? You mean
Urameshi-san, you, Kuwabara-san, and Master Genkai?”
Shuichi chuckled. “Master
Genkai retired several years ago. The fourth member is Hiei.”
“The fire halfling?” I was
surprised. Why would a demon fight his own kind? Of course, Shuichi had
mentioned he was a kitsune…Did that mean that Shuichi was a demon, too? I certainly couldn’t see it. He’d
said he had a demon in his mind, as well. Was that what it was? Was I sometimes
talking to Kurama and sometimes to Shuichi? But they seemed so similar, as if
they were one person.
I squirmed inwardly.
Who or what was my new
friend? So many secrets. Dirken had mentioned that Shuichi had secrets, to get
them. Dirken had wanted Shuichi’s secrets. But why? And if I was going to
retrieve them, and this was all connected to Michael’s pendant somehow, would
Dirken be able to get them? And if he couldn’t, would everything be okay once
Shuichi gave Michael’s pendant back? I growled softly in frustration. I needed
that damn pendant so much; I missed Jirkle and Mishu, and Morana and the twins.
Shuichi had merely smiled
at my surprise, opting to merely continue up the stairs. I was panting for air
by the time we reached the top, but I’d done it without stopping this time. The
stitch in my side was nothing compared to the sight of Yusuke and Kuwabara
being hit over the head with an oar-wielding, periwinkle-haired girl in a pink
kimono.
“What the hell…?” I
murmured. The periwinkle-and-pink girl was yelling rather loudly, though we
weren’t quite close enough for me to hear precisely what was being said.
Another teenage boy with short brown hair and some marking on his head,
indistinguishable, was standing off to the side. He looked rather torn between
helping the periwinkle girl beat Yusuke up and stopping her. All that time, the
short Master Genkai was smirking off to the side.
“Is this normal?” I asked.
“Fairly. You will find
Hiei in the trees above if you look close enough,” Shuichi said. He made his
way toward the others, though I looked rather like a lost birdwatcher trying to
find the elusive fire demon. I finally spotted his dark shape in a tree not two
or three yards from the group.
“Is Keiko going to be
here?” I asked. Now I was close enough to hear the periwinkle-haired girl
yelling.
“That is not the way you treat a guest, Yusuke, she’s no idea who
you are or what the hell she’s here for!”
So it was about me. I
sighed, cradling my head between my thumb and fingers. I idly hoped I would run
into anything. Shuichi answered as I continued walking. “She won’t be here
today, this is, for the most part, business.”
I glanced up, glad I had.
I nearly ran into Shuichi, as he’d somehow ended up in front of me again. I
skirted around him as I replied. “What kind of business are we here for?”
“There are some answers
we’d like from you, Rei, and I’m sure you’d like a few yourself,” Shuichi said,
a wry smile on his face. He stopped in front of the others, whom had all by now
fallen silent. “Rei Galis, I would like you to meet the leader of Spirit World
affairs, Koenma Jr., and—”
“No, Kurama, let me!”
shouted the periwinkle-haired girl. I wasn’t quite sure if I liked her or not.
She seemed so morbidly cheerful, as if she’d laugh at a funeral and cry at a
wedding. “I’m Botan, the ferrywoman. Or, as it would be in your culture, the
Grim Reaper.”
I blinked slowly, trying
to take in two very enormous pieces of information at once. “Let me…get this
one straight before ya’ll spring anythin’ else on me. You are a god. In charge
of sorting the dead. And you are the Grim Reaper.”
Both nodded, Botan giving
a silly smile.
“Okay, I’m outta here, I’m
surrounded by bigger quackers than me and that can only mean that you’ve
brought me to some outdoorsy asylum.” I sighed and turned back toward the steps
of the temple. “Thanks for the thought, Shuichi, but I really thought you
understood me.”
Shuichi placed his hand on
my shoulder, gently steering me back to the center of the group. “I assure you,
Rei, I am taking you quite seriously. And this is no asylum, nor are these
people clinically insane. Nor, I believe, are you.”
I cocked my brow at him in
disbelief. “Uh…huh. Sure. That one’s a god. Hell, he’s Enma-sama himself.”
“His son, actually,”
Koenma said, looking rather miffed. “Enma-sama is my father.”
Had he not looked
absolutely serious, I would have attempted to kid myself about this one more
time. Had he not been entirely serious, even upset that I had suggested
otherwise, I would have turned around again. But something about the way he
spoke, and the way he acted…
Made me believe him, even
if I wasn’t entirely sure he wasn’t crazy. “Okay, yeah, whatever. But if she’s
the Grim Reaper, Jirkle’s gonna get a body and dance with me at a club next
week.”
“That is possible, if he
would stop possessing your pendant,” Koenma said, nodding to Shuichi. I blinked
slowly, not quite sure what I was hearing. “At the moment, Galis-san, we need
to know a few things about you and your whereabouts approximately three years
ago, during the summer.”
“First question we want to
know, specifically,” Genkai said, her gravelly voice crunching against my
eardrums. “When did Karasu first appear?”
I thought for a moment.
“Three years ago, after I went to visit some island with a new friend of mine.
She…um…she died a day after the visit, and Karasu appeared that night.”
“Do you recall the name of
the island?” Koenma asked.
I blinked. “Uh…it
was…something about a neck or a noose or something…Hanging Man? No, that wasn’t
it…” I muttered to myself for a few minutes before I punched a fist in my palm.
“Hanging Neck! That was it. She wanted to go cause there was some party or
something going on. Actually, I found out from Morana that she was a demon and
that the island was actually—what?”
The others were staring at
me, nobody really listening to what I was saying any more.
Shuichi sighed. “I believe
this would be the point where Genkai-sensei will invite us inside the temple
for tea. Rei, would that happen to have been another instance in which Jirkle
warned you not to go?”
I blinked slowly, then
nodded. “Yeah, how’d you know that?”
“Most demons with any
common sense would warn a human, especially a female human, from approaching
Hanging Neck island at the you happened to go there. In particular if they
cared for that human.”
The group refused to speak
any farther until we’d been furnished with green tea inside, on a traditional
Japanese dining table. I hadn’t been able to sit traditional female style in
several years, so I sat Buddhist-style on the cushion, as did Kuwabara and
Yusuke. Kurama sat traditionally, as did Botan, Genkai, and Koenma. It felt
rather weird thinking of them as people, knowing just what they were.
“We have another question
for you,” Koenma said as the tea sat in front of him. Genkai asked if I wanted
anything in mine. Surprised, I requested two teaspoons of honey, if she had it.
“Do you know where Xanatos and Dirken went since you’ve seen them last?”
I slowly shook my head.
“No…the last time I saw Xanatos was nine years ago, when I was still a kid. And
Dirken, I never have time to ask him anything. He’s too…um…busy, I guess you’d
say.”
Koenma sighed and nodded. “You realize that the reason you have not seen Xanatos is that he has taken form, correct?”
I hadn’t realized, but I
nodded all the same.
“And Dirken may have as
well.”
“I don’t really think so,”
I said, amused. “Dirken likes being in charge of dreams. He believes he has
more power in spirit form than in physical form.”
“Being a dream dragon,
that does make sense,” Koenma mused, more to himself than to the table at
large.
“Shuichi said ya’ll looked
up what an Origin demon was,” I said. I’d been given a general idea of it from
Jirkle, which I’d told Shuichi, but I wanted specifics.
“Oh, yes, fascinating
subject!” Botan said. “There were volumes and volumes of research on them
before the Dark Ages!”
“Okay…can you explain what
they are?”
“I thought you knew, smart
ass,” Yusuke said, to receive a whap upside the head from Botan.
“Specifics,” I muttered,
glancing more off to the side.
“Oh, well, let me see. An
Origin demon was usually defined by ancient scholars as any demon that was
formed at the casting-out of the bad angels,” Botan said. At the blank looks
around the table, she blushed. “Well, this goes more over into Western spirits, but when Lucifer was banished, several
demons were cast out with him. Those demons were called Origin because they
were the original demons. But before long, they began spawning, and then demons
were born of other things, too, like the elements and animals like Kurama’s fox
form, and from humans who’d been turned into other things, like vampires and
werewolves.”
“Vampires are real?!”
Kuwabara shrieked.
“Well, yes, but most of
them have been banished to the Makai,” Botan said, smiling brightly.
“So this Dirken guy was
one of the original demons, ever?”
Yusuke asked, his eyes wide. “I mean, Mazoku demons live for a really long
time, if Raizen was anything to base on, but to live that long?”
“Did you forget that
Dirken’s dead?” Koenma asked. “Usually, most demons live their lives and die
and go to the Spirit World like anyone else. But sometimes, demons with strong
minds or powers, and other factors, can make them cling to this world instead
of moving on to the next. Most take over living bodies, but sometimes they can
manifest themselves in objects. Hence, Galis’s pendant.”
“But why did Rei’s pendant
attract so many demons?” Kuwabara asked.
“Hey, Kuwabara asked an
intelligent question for once!” Yusuke joked.
“I’m smart, too,
Urameshi!”
“Yeah, right!”
It was Shuichi who
answered Kuwabara’s question, but I doubted the carrot-top heard. “I believe
that once one spirit attached itself to the pendant, it opened the way for
others.”
“But which one came
first?” Botan asked.
Everyone glanced at me. I
shrugged. “I don’t really know, actually. Xanatos came, and then Dirken, but
then all of my residents came sorta all at once sometime in between them.”
The others stared. I
squeaked my defense. “I was only twelve!”
Shuichi spoke again,
drawing the other’s attention from me. “The first spirit was not, as we might
have previously assumed, a stranger to Rei. It was someone she knew. I asked
Jorge-san to look up the records to the name Michael James Watson, a suicide.
On his heels was supposed to be a boy named Sevon, who left his lively
existence shortly afterward. Both had been slated for a peaceful existence in
Spirit World. However,” he locked eyes with me, “neither of them made it to
Spirit World.”
He handed me Michael’s
pendant, though he held it back for a moment or two more. “Somewhere within the
depths of this simple blue crystal lie the souls of your best friends, Rei.
They have been with you ever since.”
I stared at him, in utter
shock. “You can’t possibly…that’s…but how?!”
He smiled. “Quite simple.
They disguised themselves, and quite well, actually. What was it that you often
called Sevon-san while he was yet alive?”
I scraped my brain around.
“I…I called him a jerk, a lot.”
“And Michael?”
“A…a girl.” I blushed.
Michael and Shuichi looked very much alike, and they acted similarly. Michael
had been so girlish that I’d called him a girl on more than an hourly basis.
Shuichi smiled. “They
disguised themselves quite well, didn’t they?”
“Jirkle and Morana!” I
shouted, taking the pendant from him. Jirkle’s voice enveloped my mind with a
tender, spirit-soul embrace.
~Hey, Kitten. That foxy
fox has it all worked out, huh?~
#~Jirkle, be quiet. Rei
has a lot on her mind at the moment.~#
~*~Yeah, like why my two
best friends hid themselves as demons in my mind, and then made everybody think
I was nuts.~*~
#~We never meant to
hurt you, Rei.~#
~*~How did…How did you
guys know all that stuff? About demons?~*~
Everyone was silent. Jirkle, Morana, the room around me.
~Rei, we were always
demons. We just made ourselves be reborn for a little while. Koenma would have
found us…if we’d stayed alive much longer.~
#~He would have made us
go back to Makai. And we didn’t want that. We wanted to stay with you, Rei.~#
~*~Why me? Why did you
guys stay with me? Aren’t you thousands of years old? Why a single little human
girl?~*~
#~We wanted you to be happy. And…we wanted to protect you. From Xanatos and
from Dirken. They…they’re going to kill you once you get close enough to this
kitsune.~#
~Kurama’s little
secrets are what Dirken wants. What he’s always wanted.~
~*~Then why did he use me?
I didn’t even know him until—~*~
~Don’t you get it?
Dirken’s known all this time, since you were eight and even before, that you
were destined to meet the kitsune. Xanatos told him. He was the Origin of
Future Events.~
~*~What about Karasu?~*~
~We don’t know yet. No one does. But he’s definitely after the kitsune,
too.~
#~Give us back to
Kurama, Rei. Xanatos has placed a tracking ki energy on the pendant, as well.
As long as it’s in your hands, he’ll be able to sense where you are.~#
~*~But I—~*~
Shuichi had taken the
pendant from my lax fingers before I could protest again. “I apologize, Rei,
but Morana-san is correct.”
“What the hell is going
on?” Yusuke asked. Apparently, only Shuichi had heard any of the conversation,
and perhaps the little fire halfling, Hiei. The others were looking to Shuichi
and me for answers. More to Shuichi, though.
“Even dead demons, it
would seem, are after us,” Shuichi offered with a low chuckle. “If I have this
correct, and do correct me if I am wrong, Rei, Dirken and Xanatos are both
after our heads. Karasu is after what he has always been.”
“But how the hell did
Karasu escape?” Yusuke asked.
“He latched on to the
radiating powers of the demons that had hidden themselves in Rei’s pendant,”
Shuichi said. “They had wished to protect Rei, but inadvertently became the
reason for this all to occur in the first place.”
“So…wait, what?” Kuwabara
scratched his head. “I don’t get it!”
“You don’t need to,”
Koenma interrupted yet another fight between the carrot-top and Yusuke. “What
you do need to get is that these two demons are very powerful, and quite as
real as we all sit here. They can cause very real damage if they are allowed to
latch on to a body with high spirit awareness.”
“But they’re dead!”
Kuwabara yelled.
“Yes, the same way I was
‘dead’ when I sought out a human body to merge with,” Shuichi nodded. “Their
spirits are alive and well. And unlike me, they have the ability to possess a
body and manipulate it. Quite expert at it, to tell the truth.”
“And just as dangerous,
were Kurama to turn from us,” Koenma said, worrying his lower lip for a moment.
I blinked, unsure how to take this comment. Koenma looked as if Shuichi were a
brave and powerful warrior. Shuichi had
said that they were fighters, that they fought demons. Just how…powerful was he?
Shuichi chuckled easily,
though, as if Koenma had told a clever joke. “You know that it is not in a
kitsune’s nature to turn from his allies.”
“Yes, but it’s also in a
kitsune’s nature to be sly and cunning for his own ends,” Koenma said, smiling
just as easily.
“And ya’ll have yet to
explain to the poor crazy woman exactly what you are talking about,” I said,
being rather bitchy about it, too. I hated having things dangled in front of
me, not knowing exactly what they were. My curiosity in them, especially when
they dealt with the realm of demons, was to be rivaled with any scholar’s.
Jirkle had discovered that about me a bit longer ago than I had previously
thought.
“We haven’t really
introduced the rest of the team,” Shuichi said, smiling at me instead of being
miffed. Annoying. “Before we get to me, let me explain the others.”
And so he did. He
explained how the four of them had met, how they had become “Spirit Detectives”
for Koenma, how they had fought many battles, including in the renowned Dark
Tournament and won. How Yusuke was a Mazoku demon through some bizarre blood
awakening, how Hiei was a half fire, half ice apparition, and how Kuwabara was
a human with so unusual a level of spiritual awareness.
Then…he began telling me
about himself. Shuichi Minamino was in fact Youko Kurama, an infamous kitsune
spirit, famous for thievery while he had remained in the Makai. He had found
his way upon the death of his previous body into the body of an unborn human
child in Shiori Minamino’s tummy. Since, he had become renowned, again, as the
kitsune who worked for Koenma and then for Yomi, a former ruler of one-third of
the Makai.
And now Makai was run by
some fat guy with goat-horns on his head.
“So…you guys are these
Spirit Detectives?”
“Actually…Yusuke was fired
from that job some time ago,” Koenma said, chuckling softly. “Things are
quite…different since those days.”
I was confused, of course,
and said so. “Now ya’ll aren’t making any sense.”
“We still kinda do the odd
mission, but we aren’t formally employed by anyone anymore, really,” Yusuke shrugged. “We’re just
kinda…there.”
“Most of us could blow up
the world three times over and still blow something else up again,” Shuichi
said. “The only one who wouldn’t is Kuwabara, and he could still blow up half
of the world on his own.”
I sort of stared at him,
at all of them. “So…Are ya’ll sure, for sure, this isn’t an asylum?”
“Just know that, for now,
you’re safe with us,” Yusuke said. “We’ll get these old Origin buddies of
yours, kid.”
“I’m not a kid!”
“You’re younger than we
are!”
“By a year!”
Shuichi grabbed my
shoulder and made me sit back down. When had I stood up? “I would appreciate it
if you did not behave like Kuwabara and Yusuke, Rei.”
“What’s that supposed to
mean?!” Yusuke shouted, his voice slightly shrill.
I bit back a retort, in
sheer respect for Shuichi.
I mean, damn, he could
blow me away without even a second thought. Instead, I picked up my green tea
and smiled at the honey swirling around in it, congealed from not being stirred
right away. Just the way I loved it.
***
My notes, hopefully a bit more coherent:
*Honorifics: The different honorifics that I use for people
are sometimes in English and sometimes in Japanese, mostly for ease and my own
amusement. For instance, Genkai so far has been called either “Master Genkai”
or Genkai-baasan (meaning “Grandma Genkai”). Kuwa-kun meant no disrespect
toward Genkai by calling her that. In fact, precisely the opposite. Whereas
calling a woman “Granny” here in the U.S. would be derogatory, in Japan, saying
someone’s elder than you is like complimenting them for being so much older and
wiser than oneself.
*Traditional Sitting Style at Japanese Table: Rei and the
others are “invited” by Genkai into the house for tea. This isn’t a traditional
Tea Ceremony, which involves a great deal of care and execution, but it is
required that people sit at least traditionally. Since Rei is initially
Japanese, she wouldn’t explain it for us, but we aren’t, so I’ll explain. Most
women sit at a Japanese table on a cushion on their knees, with the balls of
their feet resting under their butts. When Rei says she can’t do that any more
(which many, many people, including us gaikokujin (foreigners) cannot hope to
accomplish for very long (ITAI!—or OUCH!), they sit Indian style, basically.
Feet crossed in your lap normally. A lot of men sit this way, too.
*The Time Line: You’ll find out next chapter that Rei is
actually only seventeen, while the others are eighteen. This takes place after
the Demon World Tournament. However, sometimes my math is WAAAAAY off. So, I
shall give you guys a brief time line here that is (hopefully) accurate. Rei
was first visited by demons when she was eight, and they sort of just appeared
at random after the first (being Xanatos).They all appeared sometime between
the ages of 8 and 12, but the residents didn’t start sticking around until
after she was 12, when Mike and Von committed suicide. Something, though at the
moment we don’t know what, happened to her brothers and dad at the age of 14.
*Suicides after Death: I don’t think that in Japanese
culture, a suicide would be treated with dishonor, unless it was a dishonorable
death. Just my thought on the topic. Michael James Watson, by the way, was not
Mike’s full name. ^^; Heh.
*Kitsune: The odd banter between Koenma and Kurama about
kitsune is borrowed both from the show, from Japanese lore that I’ve managed to
scavenge, and from my own interpretations of kitsune ability. Part of my
interpretation, though not mentioned in the show or elsewhere, is that kitsune
have the ability to read the surface thoughts of what is going on in a person’s
mind. Not the same as Hiei’s mind reading ability, but good enough that Kurama
was able to hear Rei’s demons talking through the pendant and her mind, and
that he could, if he wanted, watch her dreams.
*Stuff taken from YYH used in this story: Rei kind of rushes
through what the gang tells her about their previous adventures, and you’ll
prolly discover exactly what the content of it was. However, since everyone
here presumably has seen or knows at least the basic premise behind the show, I
thought it unnecessary to provide a thorough summary. However, something some
people might not know: After the Demon World Tournament that determined who
would run Demon World, the winner was one of Raizen’s old battle buddies.
Hence, “some old fat guy with horns.”
*Green Tea: Just for fun, has anyone ever tried green tea
before? It’s actually really nice, and I love the flavor to it. But it’s just
not sweet enough for the UK’s sweet tooth, so I always add some honey to it. If
you let it set for a moment (most green tea is hot), the honey will kind of
congeal into a firmer syrup from the heat. It’s really, really good. ^_^
To the Reviewers:
Shihiko: I’m glad to hear that you’re back home after so
long away from home! ^___^ I did look up Browne’s very intriguing theories. I considered
using the idea in the story, but now that you know that the demons are real
people, it’s kind of a bad idea, ne? I had a bit of trouble explaining Origin
demons, because it had just hit me that the theory is based almost entirely on
Biblical ideas—definitely not very compatible with Japanese Shinto, now is it?
I just decided that it would basically coexist, though I’m not entirely sure
that works in context…
Esmee: Thank you for the wonderful cheer! ^__^ I hope you
enjoyed this chapter, as dialogue-laden as it is.
