Chapter 4
Sitting
up in bed with a cry Yusuke’s eyes raced to take in his surroundings in a
panic. Where was the forest? Where was Gouki? Where the hell was he and how had he gotten
there?
“I’m in my room?”
A gasp from the
doorway alerted him to another’s presence and Yusuke quickly turned his
attention to the doorway where his mother stood, looking at him with wide eyes.
“Your
awake.”
Yusuke frowned.
“Yeah
mom-Ouch!”
Yusuke cringed at the
pain as his mother brought her fist down on his head.
“Damn Mom you don’t
just wallop and injured person.”
Atsuko scowled down
at her son.
“Then you shouldn’t
be fighting. You look like you’ve been
fighting a wrestler Yusuke. Your going to get yourself killed again!”
Yusuke panicked as
his mother broke down into tears in front of him.
“Come on Mom I’m
fine.”
“But how did I get back here?
And who’s voice was that back there in the
clearing?”
“Oh come on you
know.”
Yusuke blinked before
turning his attention back to the door.
“Gah! Botan!”
Botan winked, smiling
happily.
“Bingo!”
“You brought me back
here?”
Botan nodded.
“Uh
huh.”
Atsuko smiled as she
stood, looking over to the blue haired girl.
“That’s right she
brought you back asleep in her arms.
She’s very strong.”
Yusuke stared at his
mother in shock for a moment. Mood
swings much? Before what she had said
finally caught up with him.
“People can see you
now?!”
Botan nodded as she
leaned closer to hear the spirit detectives whispered words.
“Yes, I told Koenma I
would make a much better assistant to the spirit detective if I had a human
form and he agreed.”
Yusuke nodded in
understanding as he watched his mother leave the room.
“So Botan and Yuki are going to stick by me through this huh? …Oh shit!”
“Botan where is
Yuki?”
Botan blinked in
confusion; caught off guard by the sudden change in topic. Yusuke frowned; his brow furrowed.
“Where is my little
sister? She was with me in the forest
and was waiting back at the edge of the clearing for me.”
Botan frowned in
thought before shaking her head confusedly.
“I’m sorry Yusuke but
I brought you back home the same way you came and there was no one there.”
Yusuke frowned,
leaning back against the window in thought.
Where was she? It wasn’t like
Yuki to just up and leave for no reason at all.
If anything she was more likely to observe the situation for a bit
before she jumped into the fray herself.
“But she hadn’t and I should have figured something was wrong when she
didn’t. I know Yuki she is cautious and
prefers to observe her opponents rather than jump in like I do. But…wait!”
Yusuke thought back
to the fight, trying to remember if he had seen anything out of the ordinary…or…more
out of the ordinary anyway.
“Oh shit!”
Botan blinked and
turned to frown at the teen.
“What’s wrong
Yusuke?”
Yusuke
glared angrily down at his hands; furious with himself for not noticing that
something was wrong earlier.
“During my fight a soul
was pulled into the orb. I noticed it
because it was fighting the entire time; as if trying to return to it’s body. And worst
of all it came from where Yuki was standing!”
Botan’s
eyes widened in shock.
“You mean that that
monster has your little sisters soul and now we don’t
even know where her body is?!”
Yusuke growled and
slammed his fists down on the bed in frustration; self-anger in his eyes. How hadn’t he noticed that that soul had come
from his sisters direction? How had he missed something that should have
obviously tipped him off that his little sister was in danger?
“Botan; how long
before the souls Gouki eats are digested?”
Botan frowned; trying
to remember everything she knew about the orb.
“I’m not sure. A day at the most.”
Yusuke nodded;
springing off of his bed.
“Then we best get
moving.”
“I’ll get your soul back to you Yuki.
And then I’ll find you. I won’t
let you die.”
00000000000000000000000
Kurama frowned in
concern as he carefully used a wet wash cloth to whip the still soulless girl’s
forehead. This wasn’t good. She had yet to wake up which meant that the
detective had obviously failed to take the orb from Gouki.
“Hn. How is she?”
Kurama frowned;
turning to look at where the fire demon had appeared, perched on his window sill.
“Not good Hiei. Her soul has yet to return to her.”
Hiei growled in
frustration and made himself comfortable on the sill.
“Meaning that
detective was unable to defeat Gouki. Hn! Pathetic.”
Kurama smiled lightly
in amusement for a moment before he looked at his watch and frowned.
“Hiei can you watch
her for me? I need to go see my mother.”
Hiei frowned, looking
from the soulless child to the red head before turning his attention back out
the window.
“Hn.”
Kurama smiled, his
eyes lit with both amusement and relief as he grabbed his jacket from his desk
chair.
“Thank you Hiei. I’ve been making sure her body temperature
stays around what appears to be normal for her; which is quite cold mind
you. I have also been using a wet cloth
to whip her forehead every so often to try to keep away fevers and such. Other than that there is not too much to do
other than make sure she continues to breath.
It would be no good if her soul came back only to find her body dead.”
Hiei glanced at the
red head through the glass and nodded sharply to show he understood.
“Thanks again
Hiei. I’ll be back in a few hours.”
Hiei said nothing as
the door was closed and he listened to the red head slip quietly from the
house. There was nothing to say that
hadn’t been said numerous times before.
Kurama knew what he thought of his human mother and Hiei knew what
Kurama thought about his opinion on that matter.
Red eyes glanced over
towards the bed and settled on the small figure of the little girl. She looked so weak and helpless like that;
lying there unmoving with his cloak wrapped around her. But he knew there was something else about
the girl. He knew she was human and yet
there was something about her that seemed to draw him to her. He wasn’t sure why.
Settling in with a sigh
Hiei carefully raised his Ki to warm the room up a bit when he saw the soulless
body on the bed shiver. He would find
out what was drawing him to her; but he had to make sure she survived first.
0000000000000000000000000
“I have to stop Gouki; not just for the little kids who’s souls Gouki
has taken but for my sister as well!”
Yusuke watched,
crotched on the ground as Gouki advanced upon both him and Botan. So the skin on this guy was hard as a rock
but…
Gouki laughed as he
towered over the humans on the ground before him.
“Yes this way I can
eat you both. Starting
with my top offender!”
Yusuke grit his teeth
as the demon roared; finally opening his mouth to eat him before he smirked and
quickly shoved a piece of wood into the demons mouth.
“Finally; I was
waiting for you to open your big fat mouth.”
Yusuke smirked,
powering up his spirit gun, using the affects of the amplification ring he had
gotten from Botan.
“The skin on you
whatever monsters may be tough as a rock but…”
Yusuke aimed his
nearly ready attack straight into the demons mouth.
“I bet your insides
aren’t.”
Brown eyes saw the
panic and fear enter the demons eyes just as he fired but found he could only
feel determination and anger.
“Monster, meet spirit
gun!”
Gouki’s screams
seemed to echo throughout the clearing as the spirit gun impacted its target
head on before the demons body fell to the floor with a thump.
Yusuke watched and
sighed as he collapsed to the ground, the use of the ring finally taking it’s toll on him.
“Did it work? Are those kids
ok? Yuki?”
“Yusuke!”
Yusuke looked up and
grinned before both of their attention was drawn to Gouki’s glowing stomach and
the souls rising from within.
“1, 2 ,3 ,4 ,5 ,6.”
Botan smiled as she
listened to the teen count the souls rising from the demons body.
“You saved them all
Yusuke. And look; it looks like your
sisters soul was released as well.”
Yusuke looked up to
where Botan was pointing and grinned as he caught sight of the silvery blue
soul; more vibrant than all the rest; race off faster than the others.
“At least I know your soul is safe Yuki. Now I just have to find you and the other
artifacts.”
Botan groaned
slightly as she helped the teen to his feet, allowing him to lean on her
shoulder as he held the orb in his hand.
“I nearly lost my
head trying to get this one artifact back.
I’d hate to think, what two more will take.”
00000000000000000
Hiei looked out the
window as he felt something fast approaching Kurama’s house. Moving closer to the window from his new spot
on the side of the bed he looked out the glass before quickly opening the
window and standing back for the fast moving soul to enter.
“Hn. So the detective managed to get
the orb from Gouki.”
Red eyes watched
silently as the soul raced in and stopped to hover over the girl on the
bed. The soul seemed to hesitate for a
moment before it slowly and carefully entered the girl’s body; making the color
return to the girls skin.
Just as the soul
entered the girl filly Hiei’s eyes widened and he quickly used his speed to
race out of the room; making it out the door just in time before the girls now
fully unleashed powers flared to life.
Covering his eyes with his arm Hiei grit his teeth and waited for the
brief surge of power to fade before looking back into the room.
Red eyes widened at
the scene before him.
“Hn. We weren’t expecting this.”
00000000000000000000000
“Hey
Yusuke! Can’t you just admit it
would be easier to lean on my shoulder?”
Yusuke grit his
teeth, looking back at the blue haired ferry girl with a glare.
“Yeah right can’t you
admit it would be embarrassing?”
Beeping made Yusuke
start and brown eyes flew down to land on the compass on his wrist. Botan saw his distress and raced up to stand
beside him, subtly supporting him as his eyes raced through the surrounding
crowd.
“What is it?”
Yusuke grit his
teeth, allowing Botan to help him as he scanned the crowd.
“One of them is here! If they
try to fight me I’ll be meat on a stick!
And I still have to find Yuki dammit!”
Brown eyes narrowed
as the crowd parted some and his own eyes met emerald; sadly not the emeralds
of his little sister but…
“There; it’s Kurama.”
Kurama moved forward
when he knew the detective had caught sight of him. He had no intention of fighting the other and
wished to make that known. But he also
had to make sure the other wouldn’t chase after him. He needed the moon to be full before the
detective could take the mirror back and he didn’t wish to spend time fighting
when his mother needed him.
Walking steadily past
the detective and the girl Kurama spoke.
“Don’t worry; I have
no intention of fighting you, nor do I intend to flee. In fact, I’ve come to ask for a favor.”
Yusuke frowned,
turning to follow the red heads path.
“Are you crazy?”
Kurama stopped.
“Give me three days
after that I will gladly return to you the Forlorn Hope.”
With that last bit
Kurama disappeared into the crowd heading back towards his home where he was
sure Hiei was waiting for him. And if
the foreign power he had sensed on the spirit detective was any indication,
perhaps the little girl would be awake too.
000000000000000000000000
Entering his home
Kurama froze at the feeling of an unknown Ki signature within but forced himself to relax when he felt Hiei’s own Ki not far from the
foreign signature. But
still…
Kurama took off his
coat and shoes and made his way quickly up the stairs. Reaching the top Kurama paused, blinking in
surprise and confusion s he spotted Hiei sitting cross legged in front of his
open bedroom door, a glare firmly set on his face.
“Hiei? What are you doing out here?”
Hiei looked away from
the door until his eyes landed on the fox.
“Hn. Take a look inside. The girl’s soul returned to her not to long
ago and apparently unlocked her dormant powers.”
Kurama blinked,
moving cautiously closer to his open bedroom door.
“Powers?”
Hiei nodded sharply
and waited for the fox to look into his…room.
Kurama looked around
the door and his eyes widened in shock.
Not much could really be seen of his room through the spikes of ice
attached to his floor and ceiling. But
what he could see through the mass of ice and frozen furniture was the little
girl. She lay on the bed, though he
could see her chest rising and falling in time to her breaths; now in a natural
sleep with her soul safely recovering in her body.
Moving out to touch
one of the pillars of ice closest to the door Kurama was forced to jump back as
spikes of ice shot out to try to stab in, succeeding in drawing some
blood. Kurama sighed, licking the blood
carefully from his hand.
“You could have
warned me Hiei.”
Hiei grunted from his
place on the floor; silently amused at the Fox’s plight. Moving to stand beside Hiei Kurama studied
the ice with an interested gaze.
“Have you tried to
melt it?”
Hiei looked up at the
red head with bored eyes.
“Hn. Of course I did. It just created a lot of steam and once that
cleared there was another pillar in its place.”
Kurama chuckled at
the annoyed look on the fire demons face before becoming serious again.
“What do you think
she is? An Ice
Maiden?”
Hiei glared hotly at
the red head as he stood, placing his sword back at his side.
“Hn. She is still human, and is in no way related
to the Ice Maidens.”
Kurama smiled
apologetically down at the little Fire Demon, realizing he had hit a touchy
subject.
“Sorry Hiei, just trying
to figure this out.”
Hiei glared before
relenting and turning his head to the side.
Kurama smiled at the forgiveness before turning his attention back to
his frozen room.
“Well I would have to
guess that she is feeling unsafe. She
just had her soul taken, is in a place she doesn’t recognize and has two demons
who she only knows as the thieves nearby.
I would say when she wakes this should go away.”
Hiei looked back at
the ice.
“Hn.”
Kurama smiled and
turned to make his way back down the stairs.
In the mean time why don’t we go down and have something to eat?”
Hiei glared but
followed the fox down the stairs anyway.
“Hn. You know I won’t eat that human food.”
Kurama smiled,
looking over his shoulder at the other.
“I know but there is
some sweet snow in the freezer for you Hiei.”
A flash of black and
a breeze were his only answer and Kurama laughed as he followed the little fire
demon; content for the moment and anticipating the full moon in three days.
000000000000000000000000
Three days later
Kurama looked around his bedroom, noticing that most of the ice had disappeared
as the child slept.
“Well at least it is
disappearing; must be a sign she is getting ready to wake.”
“Hn. Or that she is being drained of energy.”
Kurama smiled,
turning to look at the fire demon perched once again on his window sill.
“Back again
Hiei? Tell me; what is it that you find
so fascinating about this girl?”
Hiei glared for a
moment before frowning at the partially ice covered girl on the bed.
“Hn. No idea.
All I know is that I feel drawn to her for some reason. I know nothing more than that.”
Kurama frowned in
confusion.
“I’m not sure what to
tell you Hiei. I’m afraid that I have
never come across something like this before.”
Hiei glanced over at
the red head, his eyes bored before nodding and moving to settle himself on the side of the bed, watching as the red head
moved around the room.
“So then you’re doing
it tonight.”
Kurama glanced up and
nodded.
“Yes. I know this will seem tedious to you but I
would like it if you watched over the girl for me tonight.”
Hiei glanced back.
“Hn. Might not be necessary. She’s awake.”
Kurama paused before
turning back to the bed and smiling at the now awake girl.
“So I see. Why don’t you open your eyes child; we will
not hurt you.”
Yuki opened her eyes
slowly, taking in her surroundings carefully and calmly; noting the ice with
surprise and confusion; before settling her gaze on the two demon thieves.
“Where am I?”
Kurama smiled at the
girl and sat down at his recently unfrozen desk chair.
“My
home. After the orb took your
soul Hiei and I brought you here. It
seemed unwise to leave you out there all alone.”
Yuki nodded silently
and sat up on the bed; trying and failing to hide a wince as stiff and sore
muscles protested. Hiei’s sharp red eyes
caught the slight wince and with a frown he reached out and in a move
uncharacteristic of him, pulled the small girl over into his lap. Ignoring the astonished fox Hiei carefully
raised his Ki and began working out the stiffness in the girls half frozen
body.
“Hn. You shouldn’t move so much; your body has
been half frozen for a number of days now.”
Yuki blinked, turning
confused emerald eyes up to look into stoic red ones. What was going on? From what she had seen and heard this demon;
Hiei if she recalled correctly; hated humans.
Yet he was taking care of her without complaint and being surprisingly
gently about it. Yuki closed her eyes
and grit her teeth as his hands came up to work the ice and stiffness of her
neck; that hurt.
“Frozen?”
Kurama shook off his
shock at seeing his partner being so gentle and attentive to a little human
girl and smiled gently at the curious little girl.
“Yes frozen. It would seem as if when your soul was taken
from your body and then returned a power of some sort was unlocked. Hence the ice all over the
place.”
Yuki looked around
her, relaxing back into the demon behind her without a thought. Both Hiei’s and Kurama’s eyes widened as the
little girl leaned back against Hiei before Kurama quickly hid his shock and
smiled at the girl.
“May we have your
name child?”
Yuki blinked;
thinking it over for a second before nodding; they had taken care of her for a
few days as far as she could tell and the red eyed demon; Hiei; was taking care
of her now so she at least owed them her name.
“My name is Yuki;
Yuki Urameshi. And I’m eight years old.”
Kurama’s eyes widened
in shock and he met Hiei’s own shocked red eyes over the girls head.
“Urameshi?”
Yuki nodded.
“Yes; Yusuke Urameshi
is my older brother.”
Kurama sighed.
“Well we hadn’t
expected that but…I have to get going.”
Yuki looked up in
confusion; watching as the red head moved towards the door.
“Hiei; despite the
fact that she is now awake would you please stay and keep an eye on her?”
Hiei looked up from
working the ice off the girls arm and nodded.
“Hn.”
Kurama smiled and
left; leaving for his meeting with the spirit detective and leaving the little
girl in Hiei’s care.
00000000000000000000
Yusuke grumbled
irritably as he made his way towards his meeting place with Kurama. He had had three days and he still had yet to
find any sign of his little sister. Even
with Botan’s help it had been useless.
“And since she isn’t a demon I can’t even use the stupid compass to
find her. Damn I hope she’s alright.”
Coming up on the
hospital Yusuke frowned as he caught sight of Kurama leaning up against the
wall beside the door.
“Something tells me this is going to be a long night.”
00000000000000000000
Yusuke laughed along
with Botan as he held the retrieved Forlorn Hope in his hands. Well he would have to say it had been a
pretty successful night; he had saved both Kurama and his mother and had
retrieved the Forlorn Hope. The only
thing that could possibly make this better would be if he had Yuki by his side.
Looking away from the
mirror Yusuke looked up at the full moon above.
His hands clenching as his determination to find his little sister
soared.
“Please be safe Yuki.”
