Yusuke got off of the bus at the same bus stop and began walking down the street. The restaurant was still taped off and the only thing that was cleaned was the blood coming out from the door. He kept walking. Nothing. He couldn't pick up on one damn thing there was no such thing as a youkai or even a damned spirit that had no tracks or left behind marks of any kind. Growling again he went further until he saw the prep from the restaurant. Yusuke clentched his fist letting blood flow.

“I know you're not the ningen form the bookstore Chenja. Shapeshifter making me punch a stupid worthless ningen.”

The prep smirked letting off a horrible sound known as his voice. “Uremeshi so nice of you to sto-“

“-Did you do this to the restaurant…Tell me!”

The prep shook his head. “Not my handy work. You already know of all I can do Uremeshi. Don't go pulling strings were there aren't any, or however that ningen saying goes. I didn't kill the ningens, I'm here for you.”

Yusuke spoke not loosing eye contact as people crossed inbetween and around them on the side walk. “I'm not here for you Chenja, I'm here to beat the shit head who did this to my mate's family.”

The prep smirked. “Well too bad, because I'm here for you Uremeshi, unless, you'd rather I go after that little mate of yours-“

Yusuke let his markings show as his hair grew out again speaking through clentche teeth. “-Watch your tongue bastard.”

The prep laughed some at the shocked and horrid expressions of the humans passing by of Yusuke's transformation. “Then make me,” a portal opened behind him as he walked back into it. “Toushin.”

Yusuke dove into the portal just as it closed finding himself still on Earth but in a more remote location. But not remote enough. It was a park right before the local schools let out, and knowing the habbits of delequint teenages and children of all ages it wouldn't stay empty for more than another twenty more minutes.

“You sick twisted son of a bitch what the hell did these damn ningen do to you!”

The prep morphed into this demon look. Chenja spoke. “They just need to be allocated to better suit their purpose in life. Give it a day at the most Toushin and there will be a new world order and you will be dead! My commarades are already beginning the process!”

Yusuke charged his jakai gun. “Fuck you!”

Shooting the jakai gun straight down the dirt, rocks, tree roots and even water pipes burst straight up into the air. Yusuke ran through the debris and began attacking Chenja making sure not to let him touch him, hold onto him. He could still absorb energy. He let his raw anger fuel him not wasting any time or feeling any pain old or new as his only focus was killing the youkai, great or not before him as fast as he could to make sure he would be able to track down and find the one that destroyed his mate's family. Not even Kieko was on his mind, but just beating the opponent infront of him into oblivion as fast as a Toushin could.

Yusuke punched again noticing Chenja matching every move he made regardless of what he tried. They weren't getting anywhere. Chenja couldn't project his energy and Yusuke couldn't because it would get absorbed. And it wasn't a battle of brute strength because Yusuke didn't have time to slug it out. He couldn't let himself be grabbed and drained of his energy. Finess. Punching again Yusuke grabbed onto Chenja's kick twisting his leg. Chenja twisted into it flipping around kicking at Yusuke's head with his other leg causing Yusuke to duck down and roll back avoiding. When he got back up to his feet he began blocking as fast as he could all of the punches and kicks aimed his way. The school kids slowly began to creep into the park. He heard voices sugussting the battle between him and Chenja was for a movie. Yusuke growled getting punched in the face. This was far from a movie. Chenja punched Yusuke in his face again only to get kicked down. Skidding to a stop he began blocking Yusuke's attacks and finding an opening elbowed him in the chest then back handed him along his face then kicked him afar. Yusuke's eyes widened as he crashed through a swing set causing kids to flee the area, he himself almost landing ontop of a boy who seemed to be in grade school. Chenja shouted running at Yusuke.

“What's wrong Toushin? Afraid for the little ningen's lifes? That they might be crushed under our power?”

Yusuke shouted as loud as he could turning towards the largest group of kids watching. “Get the hell out of here now!”

A kid, who seemed to be in Junior high, spoke as Yusuke continued the fight. “Hell no. I'm stayin' and watchin' this! They're moving so fast I can't see it but wow! No actor is telling me what to do!”

Yusuke cursed to himself able to hear the boy as he was thrown into a tree. Cursing his stupidity he got back up to his feet jumping to the side as Chenja kicked through a tree causing it to splinter all over, then ran up to Yusuke decking him straight into the ground. Yusuke got up to his feet and blocked a kick with his arms but was kicked back with the other leg. Getting up again he paused eyes wide.

A little girl who couldn't of been more than seven had one of the splinters from the tree going through her while the two girl next to her were shouting, crying over her. A boy opposite of them closer to a swing set also met the same fate. Yusuke quickly stood decking Chenja and began attacking.

“Damnit why the hell did you do that! These ignorant kids don't have a damn thing to do with this!”

Chenja smirked blocking, attacking, getting attacked. “I wasn't planning on the pieces of the destroyed tree killing some ningen children but it happens in battle Toushin.” Chenja kicked Yusuke in his gut and punched him down. “If you can't handle it then you should give up.”

Yusuke got to his feet quickly avoiding Chenja again. He had to take this fight to Makai, or at lest somewhere that innocent, yet ignorant ningens wouldn't get killed in the process. But he didn't know where a portal was, because he didn't know where he was exactly. Growling to himself he punched Chenja with as much force as he could muster and ran after him wiping the bloody cut from his face. Cursing louder Yusuke saw Chenja get to his feet and smirk at him, running into the downtown area. Not one to give up a chase Yusuke continued running after him shoving his way through the humans whos scents reaked of fear. Chenja spoke after turning his head back from seeing where Yusuke was exactly.

“Toushin why are you afraid to attack now? I do realize that you have been holding back through out this entire fight and it does upset me that you think so little of me-“ Chenja suddenly stopped and turned around running up to Yusuke punching him with as much energy as he could muster. Yusuke shouted as his back stopped him on a taxi car. “but do so again and I will have no regrets in killing you.” Chenja spat out a small amount of blood. “Toushin.” He laughed once. “You don't even know you're holding back do you?” A portal opened behind him, and Chenja entered before Yusuke could charge at him.

Yusuke cursed loudly and quickly ran off to a discret area. He couldn't be seen like this. He shouldn've fought infront of so many human who knew nothing about what he was doing. He should have killed Chenja.

`Am I holding back? I don't kow how that is possible I'm doing everything I can yet-` Yusuke looked up to see Yoko and Hiei. “What.”

Yoko spoke. “I have a portal to Rekai secured by a trusted enough source, but once we get there, he can't open one for us to come back. We either find a way, or we're trapped there.”

Yusuke popped his shoulder back into place. “Fine, let's end this, now.”

Koenma walked back into his office dusting a powder off of his hands. As he closed the door he looked up some.

“Was it sucsful Akumu? I can't tell with you standing in the shadows. I didn't even know this room had shadows.”

Akumu smiled. “It worked fine. I felt my complete energy return to me after four days and not only did I do as you suggested but I improved on the idea far more than you could imagine.” He stepped out of the shadows. “I would know.”

Koenma looked at him and sat down in the chair. “You would know and I can see my idea worked. Only reason I knew it was you was, well because I can't think of anything to say right now.”

Akumu shook his head. “You've been like this for too long- Chenja.”

Chenja stepped out of the portal. He had some cuts and wounds on him, but nothing serious. Wiping some blood off from his eyebrow he spoke.

“Is it already started?”

Koenma nooded. “Should be finished soon enough, after all we've waited for centuries for this.”

Akumu laughed some. “Years of waiting all comes down to seventeen more hours before the unworthy ningens are desecrated and a new world order is set into place, all mandated by magic of course.”

Chenja pulled out a small piece of wood from his arm. “How else would this work? The ignorant lower youkai that believe they can rule the world by themselves don't realize that wills can not be bent so easily, we've done this the right way, and waited, and now it will pay off and we will be-“

George the ogre burst through the doors. “Koenma sama- Who are they?”

Koenma hit him on the head. “George you idiot you aren't here to question what's so urgent that you have to burst through my doors!”

George rubbed his head. “An unauthorized portal has opened in the offices Koenma sama, in Rekai! In the medical wing now!”

Akumu smiled. “They finally found a way here, good.”

Koenma hit George again. “Keep out of others business George or ten hundred spankings! You can leave now, let them come here. And tell everyone to keep to work and not worry about the, intruders.” George left not wanting to get the spankings, and Akumu and Chenja turned to Koenma who had a large grin on his face. “I give spankings, I always have.”

Chenja gave him a look. “Spankings?”

Koenma smiled some. “Family thing apparently.” He looked up hearing a crash. “They're here.”

Yusuke, Hiei, and Yoko stepped out of the portal almost falling as they landed ontop of a shelf filled with wraps, gause, and medical supplies. As the entire thing crashed over they all jumped to the floor and looked around.

“All of the Spirit World workers here, act as if we didn't just crash their place.”

Hiei turned to Yusuke some then went back to looking around as he too walked. “Meaning Koenma just told them to ignore us and we're walking into a trap.”

Yusuke saw the door infront of them. “Let's go in then.”

Opening the door to Koenma's office the three entered staying near the entrance. Chenja, fresh from his recent fight with Yusuke stood near Koenma's desk, where he sat. The rest of the room looked the same as it ever was.

“Greetings.” Koenma smiled. “I guess you figured out by now that I'm not perfect, and if not, I'm telling you,” he put his hand up as to hide his words and whispered. “I'm on his side.”

Yusuke growled. “How long.”

Koenma looked at him. “How long? You really want to know how long?” He smiled some. “It might suprize you, I'm not sure if you want to kn-“

“-Just, tell me Koenma.”

Koenma had to hide a laugh snickering to himself instead. “Fine. Do you remember the Dark Tournament that you attended?”

Yusuke glared at him. “Bull shit it wasn't that long ago.”

“True, but do you remember the mission I gave you about the B class youkai that tried to take over Osaka?”

Yusuke's eyes widened. “That was at least three years ago…Before we even…”

Koenma smirked. “Exactly. Before you ever heard about Mushari City, before you ever meet Kagome. But she's dead now and that city is no longer of much importance-“

Yusuke was pist. “-Why? Damnit why the hell did you put us through this why are you doing this you are supposed to be prince of spirit world not some power starved youkai!”

Koenma laughed some. “Because I'm not the stupid `bad guy' you see on television that blurts out everything or says the big secret.” He smirked. “I'm not telling you Uremeshi so get over it. Anything else you wanna know before he starts killing all of you.” He turned to Yoko. “Suprized you're not itching to ask a question or two.”

Yusuke spoke. “Did you mess with my mate's family or was it your other one, whatever the hell you people try to pass yourselves off as.”

Koenma shook his head. “Not for me to say, but if it makes you feel any better it wasn't me. Meaning it was him then but yeah not for me to say.”

Yusuke was getting fed up with his antics, but Yoko spoke connecting the dots before Yusuke could. “You aren't really Koenma. You're one of the now three youkai that were realsed.”

Koenma smirked. “Knew you'd be the first to figure it out. Might take your little Toushin friend a few more years to stop thinking so much like a ningen, but it's expected. My name is Reitouzoku, and I wouldn't get any quick ideas about killing me. I'm not Koenma but I am. I sense just like him, sound, look, everything.” He devisouly grinned. “I invaded his body so killing `me' is killing your precisous boss who had no idea this was even about to go on.” He twirled around in the chair. “And everyone knows, liking Koenma or not, that without someone to run Rekai, all shit breaks lose even if he does do a half ass job. So you can't kill this body.”

Yusuke growled again. “Teme.”

Koenma smirked. “Such foul world Uremeshi. So since your most intelligent member of the group at times for coming up with things like this but least intelligent for shunning his mate has come up with why I'm really here why don't you all ask any of your last questions, now, like any good stalling villain does in ningen movies even though the vilian never considers his or her self a vilian.” He smiled. “So that way you can all die.”

Yusuke smirked. “Allright then.” He charged his finger with his energy. “Jakai gu-“ Yusuke's energy suddenly went back into him as he staired at the figure that emerged from the shadows. “It's, you…”

Akumu smiled. “Waiting for something?”

Yusuke was confused. “But…But you're ningen- nothing about you is not ningen-“

Akumu shrugged. “I know. I am ningen, one hundred percent…At times.”

Yusuke showed it on his face. “Blond hair died wanna be punk college age kid…You were there the entire time and I walked right past you…”

Akumu smiled more. “I know. Feel inferior yet?”

Yusuke glared at him. “There is no damn way a fucking ningen could have done all of that shit though! So who are you damnit you are no ningen.”

Akumu shifted back into his form while speaking. “I said I was ningen at times. This is my real form, to which I'm sure your other companinons know of.” He tossed his long black braid behind him. “And now I'm youkai.”

Hiei spoke. “The youkai that emerged from the unsealed portal in the cave.”

Yusuke growled. “How can you be ningen and youkai.”

Akumu smirked. “I'm a very, very rare breed of youkai if you must ask. One that is able to do more things than your pathetic mind can think of. I'm not a god, I have limitations, but I'm the closest thing you'll ever see to one where you're going once you stay dead.”

Yusuke spat some old blood out of his mouth. “Dead my ass.” He glared at him. “I made a promise and I will keep it now Jakai g-“

Akumu's braid began to flow as his energy surrounded him with a sinister demeanor about him. “-No you lose Uremeshi!”

Yusuke yelled. “Fat chance Jakai gun!”

As Yusuke realsed his jakai gun in such short proximit hoping that Chenja didn't move to absorb it, Akumu did something that he didn't expect. His aurora began to fill the room at a rapid pace and when it looked as if Yusuke's shot would hit Akumu, Yusuke blinked. Chenja was gone, Akumu was gone, Reitouzoku was gone. The room looked exactly the same. Turning to the side he saw Yoko and Hiei.

“What the fuck happened.”

Yoko spoke. “This is probably Akumu's ability, though I don't know what is ability is.” He turned to Hiei. “What's wrong.”

Hiei scowled, growling as he ripped his headband off from his Jagan and held his head. “The Jagan is over active, almost overloaded and that has never happened.”

Yusuke walked out of Koenma's office. “Then let's hurry this up then and figure out what the hell Akumu did.”

Yusuke continued walking and seeing orgers about in the next room everything seemed in place, normal, save Hiei's Jagan giving off unusual amounts of energy. Deciding to do what came to him first Yusuke went up to George and spoke.

“George where's Koenma at.”

George continued filing papers. “I'm not sure Yusuke, he was in his office when you went in, so I don't know.”

Yusuke flipped out his compact noticing it didn't work. “Kuso- What the hell is going on!”

Yoko looked around. He couldn't pick up on anything different.

“This has to do with Akumu without a question. See if you can find a reaper to open a portal. That's or exit out of here. He might be in Makai.”

Yusuke led them cursing to himself towards where George directed them where the non working reapers would be. Going through numerous halls in the large Rekai palace they entered through a door seeing nothing. About to turn to leave a voice stopped them.

“Yusuke! What brings you here at a time like this?”

Yusuke spoke. “Stop being so damned cheery Botan what does a time like this mean.”

Botan frowned floating on her oar. “The busy season ended, or was supposed to end five months ago, but it never slowed down! We don't even get time off anymore so many people are dying, why I haven't responded to the communicator. Is there something I can do for you quickly?”

“Just open a portal to Ningenkai.”

“Well that was simple enough. I enjoyed my break,” Botan flew off on her oar. “Gotta get back to work! Souls don't just die and find their way on their own ya know.”

Stepping out of the portal, Shuichi, Hiei, and Yusuke found themselves across from Kieko's family restaurant. Yusuke growled seeing the police and other officials still investigating, but even his growl was out done by Hiei's, who's Jagan eye was emitting even more energy. Yusuke spoke.

“What is it Hiei.”

Hiei was struggling to stay in one place and not curl up and let it take over him. “Damnit I said I don't know-“

Shuichi cut him off. “-Akumu is here. Infront of the restaurant.”

Yusuke looked seeing a blond ningen Akumu standing just to the left of the police tape, smiled, and walked off. Yusuke began running after. “Get back here damn coward!”

Akumu shook his head still walking at the same pace, a portal opened infront of him. “Come and get me then.”

Yusuke ran inside finding himself in a back room. In Sesshomaru's palace. Running as fast as he could he made his way towards where he sensed Kieko as Hiei and Shuichi exited the portal.

“Hiei wait.” Shuichi said as Hiei was also about to run off. “Something isn't right. No one can open a portal into Sesshomaru's palace. Yoko knows that from long ago.”

Hiei spoke growling still. “Maybe this damned youkai knows something that the fox or the dog doesn't know Kurama so shut up and get moving.”

Shuichi ran after. “Hmm. You're right Hiei, let's get going.”

Yusuke ran as fast as he could already smelling her blood. His eyes glowed red. Moments later he burst through the doors and was enraged. Akumu-ningen stood with Kieko's neck in his hands. There was a knife in her stomach that caused a massive wound free flowing blood. He smirked.

“Uremeshi. So glad you could join us-“

Kieko spoke managing to chock out a few words. “-Don't, hurt, Yusuke.”

Akumu smiled laughing some. “I don't plan to hurt him I plan to kill him.”

Yusuke ran at him. “Put her down now bastard-“

Yusuke stopped running with his eyes wide full of fear. After no more than four steps on his behalf he heard a sickening twisting sound and saw his mate begin to gurgle as she chocked on her own blood. Yusuke ran down catching her as Akumu let her drop laughing out loud to himself.

“Pitiful! Is this what the great Toushin has come to? You ashame your race!”

Yusuke held Kieko kneeling on the ground cradeling her as she tried gasping for breath only chocking more as blood came up from her mouth flowing down her neck soaking her kimono. She looked up at Yusuke, eyes full of fear. Her struggles soon became weaker and weaker and with her last concisous moments Yusuke wiped the hair from her face and looked at her.

“I'm sorry Kieko.”

Shuichi and Hiei entered the room to see Yusuke cradeling a cooling body. Crying. He was covered in her blood from head to toe.

“Where's Akumu Hiei.”

Hiei also spoke in very hushed tones. “Far away, my Jagan isn't troubling me much.”

Shuichi looked back at Yusuke. “Like when we were in Rekai and he was in Ningenkai. Meaning he's either back in Rekai or in Makai.”

Hiei walked off. “Leave the Toushin to mourn, we're going to Makai.”

Shuichi spoke following Hiei out to a Makai portal. “If we do encounter one of these taiyoukai, you know we will be defeated. We don't stand a chance. We've both tried against Chenja and were horribly defeated, and Akumu has already proven himself more powerful than us.”

“Hn.” Hiei later spoke walking into a Makai portal. “I'd rather go down in a fight than wait for the world as we know it to end.”

Upon immediately exiting the portal Hiei almost keeled over shouting slightly in pain. Shuichi looked up jumping back with Hiei. Akumu-youkai laughed some, almost standing infront of them.

“Having fun yet?”

Shuichi looked at him. “What are you trying to accomplish here Akumu.”

He walked off shimmering, disapating. “That's what you have to find out.”

Hiei was able to stand. “He's not in Makai any longer.”

Shuichi turned to Hiei seeing how worn he was, and he hadn't even fought. Akumu toying with him like this would kill him at this rate.

“Let's go. I can sense Chenja ahead taunting us.”

`Shuichi this isn't right. You should be going after Akumu not Chenja and this is me saying this. Trust me.'

Shuichi thought walking towards where he sensed Chenja. `Yoko we have to take down both of them and if I let you out you'll go after Akumu leaving Hiei alone to fight this. Listen to me, we have to do this.'

Yoko sighed in his mind. `Your downfall.' Minutes later the two found themselves staring at Chenja. `So then how do you suppose to fight Chenja then if he can absorb the energy of all of your attacks?'

Shuichi took out his rose whip. `Hiei and I have come up with a plan.'

`When was this.'

`While you were sleeping.'

Chenja laughed. “Foolish ningen, you know I can absorb that energy you put into that flower and use it to fuel myself even more.”

Hiei unsheated his sword attacking tired of talk. None of his attacks connected. Chenja was far too powerful. After ten minutes Hiei began to tire out already mentally weary and was punched straight down into the ground. In seeing the time to attack, Shuichi flicked his rose whip at Chenja, who stopped almost crushing Hiei's skull and grabbed onto it. The whip began to glow. As Chenja smirked some, Hiei jumped out of the small creater he was in.

“I can take your energy straight through this whip boy, you don't know who you are messing wi-“

“-Jaou Ensatsu Koku Ryuu Ha!”

The Dragon of the Darkness Flame quickly left Hiei in full force heading straight for Chenja, who simply smiled and stuck out his other hand letting it absorb into him laughing to himself. Hiei was nearly out of energy and Shuichi was drained of everything save his life energy. Once Chenja had absorbed all of the energy he could he stopped laughing and looked at them both.

“Fools. I absorb energy and you both knew that! Why feed the hand that bites you?” Chenja let his now massive energy flow freely from him. “Now you die!”

Chenja ran at Hiei and punched through his sword grabbing his face and rammed him into the ground. Laughing, he removed his hand, focused, and punched straight through Hiei in his stomach. As blood splattered Hiei let out a loud shout feeling pain all over. Flicking his arm clean of flesh he ran at the drained Shuichi who could only but up a block that proved to be worthless. Chenja's fist went straight through his ningen bones hitting him in the chin. Shuichi hit the ground, unconcisous. Chenja shook his head and shimmered off as his disapated, sucussful in his task. After a few minutes Akumu appeared, stood over Hiei surveying the damage, then over Shuichi, staring a bit longer.

“This one isn't dying like the other is.” He stared harder. “What type of breed is this youkai?”

Yoko, though, was perfectly fine and concisous. `I told Red something wasn't right, why I refused to come out. Chenja disapating inside of Sesshomaru's palace, Hiei's Jagan- Chenja can't disapate at all…I know what type of youkai Akumu is.'

Yoko easily forced his way through standing, fine. He heard Hiei, concisous, but slowly dying. Turning, he spoke seeing Akumu-youkai, who stood looking at him as well.

“Well. You're an avatar. Explains your ningen's situation then.”

Yoko spoke. “You're a nightmare youkai.”

Akumu glared at him some. “How did you figure it out.”

“A youkai that could make people insane and want to kill themselves yet have no signs of youki or anything present. And in the world you created for us, it was flawed. Chenja can't disapate at all and I sensed him do so here. Worse off you had him disapate in Sesshomaru's palace, and no one can do that or make a portal to there, like you did yourself. The only thing you being a nightmare youkai dosen't explain is how you can turn yourself into a full blooded ningen and be a full blooded youkai.”

Akumu devisouly smiled. “Reitouzoku has told me a lot about your situation, Yoko. A lot considering how long I have been in this realm. It turns out Kagome, your mate that you let kill herself, was a ice and fire youkai. A forbidden child that not only shouldn't have lived through its first months of life but should have never been created in the first place. Reitouzoku told me that he biological parents, the ice apperication and the fire appericition were both powerful, unlike the normal weak ice woman and the far more powerful fire male. So she was born having control over both elements. Rather strong for such a hated race. The only thing that I have in common with that dead mongrel is that we both had strong biological parents, letting us use each of their abilites to our disposal at will.”

“You're a hanyou.”

“Correct, you are the smartest one by far in your group. To be more specific, I'm a human nighmare hanyou. My biological father was a powerful ningen who knew of spirit energy and was a skilled fighter apparently, and my biological mother was a very powerful nightmare youkai. Both of their powers passed down to me equally making me stronger then each of them in turn. And instead of looking like a mix as most half human hanyous, I am either a full blooded youkai or a full blooded ningen.” Akumu glared at Yoko. “A little known fact but it is life. So I am a rare breed indeed.”

Yoko took out his rose whip, far longer, far more deadly with far more thorns. “Touching, but I don't care. I know what you are trying to do and I will stop you.” Yoko flicked his whip causing Akumu to avoid. “If I break your mental concentration we return to Koenma's office. If I do so,” he flicked his whip again. “before Hiei dies in his mind, he will live in real life. “ Yoko flipped his whip again. “And Kieko was never real in this world so she will still be,” Yoko connected his whip against Akumu's arm returning them to Koenma's office after a few moments. “alive.”

Akumu growled frowning. He saw Yusuke, dazed and very worn, and Hiei standing, furious, yet looked worst out of all of them.

“You know their minds are weak from time in `my world' as you so stated Yoko. They can't maximize their potential for a while. They are tired.”

Yoko formed a grass sword. “I doubt that will have any hinderancing effects on them.” He held the sharp end in his other hand. “This is the end.”

Yoko took off running at Akumu slicing at him seeing him moving to the side growling at him. “Wretched avarta.”

Yoko, days ago when his mate still held breath to her body, would have smirked at his words. `He can't use any of his nightmare abilities on me because I am an avarta. He can't figure out how to attack Shuchi and myself.'

Hiei looked on seeing Yoko fighting with everything left in him. He knew he thought he had nothing to live for and figured he would follow the woman he loved as well once he had otten his revenge. His kits were safeguarded to Sesshomaru, and the great dog demon would ensure the best possible life for them.

By never telling them a thing about their parents. If they had entire new identities, they wouldn't be linked as forbidden, who could be linked to a great spirit fox, which would have them living like how Kagome had all of her life, one way or another. She had even told her that there wasn't much of a difference between being a ningen, thinking she was, and yokai. The humans wanted her dead or to use her, were fake to her and bullied her around. The moment she knew she had the shikkon jewel in her, it went even worse. And as yokai… He had experienced some of it with her.

Loved her because she was like him but far stronger than he could ever hope to be. But this… He didn't want for her life to end up like this. He had started off as a hated yokai because he needed to name for himself. The hated hi youkai, Hiei, himself. But Yusuke, Kuwabara, Yoko much earlier on, they befriended him despite of himself. And he was thankful for it. And he had tried to do the same thing to Kagome. And she had let him and he shoved it back into her face so much, tormented her, belittled her.

She had been searching for death her entire life. Seeing Chenja looking at him, waiting for him to be able to stand up on his own with Yoko getting flung through a wall he continued to think. About his dead love. Kagome. He turned not seeing Koemna in the room- Not seeing Reitouzoku in the room. He was another cause of all of her misery, since he came into her life. The physics, Hagari, Seaman, that damn ningen boy he couldn't kill-

`-he told us we're needed, physics, because aside of youkai energy to open the portals physic energy is needed to maintain what they want to accomplish. They hate ningen but right now the more powerful the more needed. The purpose of Sensui being here-`

Hiei's eyes widened some thinking to himself remembering what Hagari had told him before. `-Yusuke distract Chenja and Reitouzoku-`

Yusuke was leaning against a wall burnt out. `-how. I can't move.'

Hiei looked at Chenja, now intently staring at him. `Do it. I know how to make sure these bastards don't have a sucuess in their plan.' He stood. `And kill Reitouzoku Koenma if you have to.'

Yusuke was confused. `Allright. I trust you.' He stood. `I'll distract until I'm dead-`

Chenja spoke looking at them. “-Hybrid. What are you plotting.”

Hiei looked at him. “Why should I tell you a thing-“

Chenja moved infront of Hiei quicker than he or Yusuke could register and grabbed onto his arm at the shoulder crushing it causing him to shout. “-then I'll just have to kill you quic-“

Yusuke quickly ran up decking Chenja ripping Hiei away from him with a shout. Chenja didn't want to let go of his arm. And he didn't.

Hiei got up to his feet quickly tearing loose his shirt quickly wrapping the stub where his left arm used to be hissing. Seeing Chenja preoccupied with Yusuke he quickly ran out finding a reaper taking a break from the persistant busy season forcing her to open a portal with his sword to her neck and found himself where he wanted to be.

Without a single ability to sense anything around him, in the middle of Mushiari City. And he had to get over his ningen killing hesitation, because he would be killing a lot of them. Too many. Most who hadn't done a thing, no knowledge whatsoever that their world would end as they know it in eleven hours. Because he couldn't tell who was physic and who wasn't, but knew the majority were combined into this city. He smirked letting black flames around him.

`Here's my chance to take over an entire city and no one's going to stop me.' He laughed some seeing the dragon forming on his only arm. `Using my life energy as well. But if it'll seal those bastards, it's a plus.' He let the dragon go, lose on the city seeing it destroying buildings, schools, hospitals, buring soccer fields, killing people walking on the street. `Because when I'm dead,' He collapsed onto the top of the building, spent. `I'll see you again, Kagome.'

Chenja decked Yusuke again holding him up by his throat pist. “Tell me Toushin inbetween my teeth what is that forbidden male about to do.”

Yusuke laughed at him, unable to fight any more. “Picking up some fine cut fish for me to eat once I kick your ass.” He moved his foot nudging his rear and laughed some more. “See! I-“

Chenja punched him in the face and threw him down seeing his skull cracked inside and a pool of blood from his head. He went out of the room seeing Reitouzoku about to run into him. He held him by the shoulders trying to calm him down, himself blood covered.

“Reitouzoku calm down you speak incoherently.”

Koenma was flustered. “Why didn't you stop Hiei?”

Chenja spat out some blood. “Where is he at in Spirit world none of them can leave on their own once they're here, and the reapers are busy with the busy season there-“

Koenma held him by his ripped shirt. “-He made it to earth our plan's over!” He shook his head angry/flustered. “Mushari city, ningen, youkai, hanyou, physic, all gone. He killed almost everyone before dying off himself. It's closed we don't have a power source anylonger.”

Chenja growled pist. “How did he know.”

Reitouzoku shook his head. “I have no idea. We never told Hagari that that was how we were taking care of all of this-“

Chenja walked past him seeing Akumu, slightly ruffled up, tossing a bloody silver fox youkai onto the floor. “-we need to leave now.”

Akumu looked at Reitouzoku, went into his mind and hissed at the information he received. “What's the contengcy plan.”

Chenja continued walking, going into the portal Reitouzoku made infront of him. “We're going to a grave site.” He turned around standing next to Akumu. “Reitouzoku, you can not be here.”

He frowned at him. “I have been here since the beginning longer than both of you-“

Akumu spoke. “-true, where we need you the most. You can cover for us if something happens. You're the ruler of rekai, and we can't make you a body until we have what we came for. Go back, clean things up in our favor and as soon as we have what we need you'll hear from us.”

Reitouzoku nodded. “Go quickly. I don't want to wait more centuries when we were that close.”

Koenma went back to Spirit World into his office noticing something off. The ogers hadn't come in to clean, mend walls, anything.

`But they're lax as I'm supposed to be, but that isn't the main thing bothering me…'

Koenma eventually stopped looking around and pushed something on his desk. “George get in here now!”

The blue orger ran in ten seconds later holding down his loin cloth. “Yes Koenma sama!”

He looked at him still in his older form. “Some evil youkai managed to come in here, I'm sure everyone knows by now I'll have it written up soon. Where are the spirit dectives's bodies.”

George shook his head. “Hiei's has already passed through and is waiting, a reaper picked his soul up not too long ago. But Kurama and Yusuke are still very much so alive Koenma sama.” He smiled. “Yoko asked for a portal out of here…Infact Yusuke went and got a few bandages he just came in through the other door-“

Koenma turned around quickly seeing Yusuke infront of him and spoke.

“-George, leave, now.”

George, confused, scurried out closing the door behind him. Koenma looked at Yusuke.

“If you kill me, you know you'll have hell to pay. There's no way you'll be albe to leave this place alive and not go straight to hell.”

Yusuke laughed some. “Is it me, or is it the loss of blood?” he smirked at him, Toushin features out in full. “Because I think you're scared of me right now Reitouzoku.” He smirked again shaking his head making a noise. “Tell me what I want to know and I won't kill you. One chance.”

He laughed some. “Toushin you won't kill me, you're youkai, no longer an idiot. That's an idel threat-“

Yusuke punched straight through his chest coming out with his heart, cutting his hand deeply on his bone. He grasped onto his body seeing him chocking and to make sure he was dead punched back inside of his ripping out a chunck of his lung then poped his head off. He figured Kagome had felt worse throughout his life, but he didn't have that much time for it. He heard a quiet voice from the shadows in the corner speaking.

“I can't hold this much longer Yusuke, the gas this plant lets out will end soon I don't have the energy for it.”

Yusuke walked out with him seeing him with a tail in keeping the portal open. “So the orgers think it's Akumu who killed him, I'm dead to them, you're dead to them.”

Yoko spoke outside of Sesshomaru's property looking at him, empty. “If not they will believe so once they have eaten. It's in the food they eat as well. The reapers don't know anything and Hiei's dead if you don't know-“

Yuske went infront of him seeing him about to turn around and walk off.

“-Yoko wait.” He looked up at him, both heavily wounded near passing out. “I was concisous the entire time. When Chenja walked out he didn't get a chance to close the door to Koenma's office. They know they're plan- Listen to me Yoko I still have enough energy to ensure that you do not go off and let yourself waste away to be with her.” He paused seeing Yoko looking at him, hurting. “They know it's done with for now, they can't open it or make whatever it is work with out the physics. But they have a back up plan.”

Yoko looked down, worn out. “You and I have no idea of what it is, where they are going… where they are at. Go to your mate Toushin and give me peace.”

Yusuke looked at him. “I'm not going to let you die Yoko. If you don't care about your friends what about your sons.” He got in his face. “You're not going to die, got it. She wouldn't want you to die and I'm not saying I know her like a book but that she want's you to live. You're Yoko Kurama.” He started walking. “Now lets go inside and clean up before Sesshomaru smells us… And before Kieko sees me this injured and thinks I'm going to die.”

Yoko followed him towards the house. “ Why do you care if I live or die.”

Yusuke smiled at him, some blood running out of the side of his mouth. “Because you're my friend Yoko. I would have stopped Hiei if he would have told me what he was going to do, why he knew he couldn't tell me. Before he died he knew he had friends. And I want to make sure you know that as well.” He opened the door for him. “Now go get the blood out of every centimeter of you and clean up. The uber yokai aren't going to do anything for a while and you have two kits that miss you.”

Yoko looked at him, saw him smile at him again and go off towards the cleaning areas. He stared at him walking off and thought to himself. He did have friends, he did have a family. He loved his mate and would never love again, but he had found new love. Friendship, where he didn't have to hide, lie, and steal from them.

`Don't forget Yoko, I'm still here.'

Yoko smiled some. `And in a short amount of time you'll be your own person. The clown found a phenoix Shuichi.'

`At least you won't bother me any longer about studing all the time.'

Yoko smirked seeing his children yipping, running down the stairs with Sesshomaru at the top coming towards him. He picked them up, Nijuu and Zokusai not carying about the blood all over him, but just him. Because they loved him as well.

`I couldn't stop bothering you about being a nerd even if I tried.'
