Thanks again for all reviews! Kagome of the South, Touketsu kaijin, Jessica Hemora, Miss Mischief, insert evil laugh here, and airwalk55 -- you’re great!
A special thanks to Shadow maiden for helping me fix my settings for reviews!! Sorry about the double-posting of chapter 3 -- I think I fixed it. (Didn’t I?)

And yes. I said it. She smells like oranges and lemons. Just a forshadowing of things to come. (I did it again.) And I hope you enjoy Jakotsu -- I know I do.

Due to formatting problems when I upload, I’m changing how I identify the mental/telepathic conversations of Youko, Kurama, and Hiei. Hope it’s not too distracting.

DISCLAIMER: I CAN’T THINK OF A WAY TO BECOME THE OWNER OF, OR PROFIT BY WRITING ABOUT, THE CHARACTERS FROM INUYASHA AND
YU YU HAKUSHO. SO I’M NOT, AND I DON’T.

Jakotsu looked over Koenma’s team of Spirit Detectives … carefully … slowly … hungrily. Licking his lips, he hopped from one foot to the other a couple of times while clapping his hands.

“And I thought Enmaru forgot my birthday. Remind me to thank the little dear when we get back, Kagome. I’m so excited -- I don’t even know which one I want to unwrap first!”

All four of the detectives in question paled a bit at that declaration. They couldn’t quite believe they had heard correctly. This Jakotsu -- he was a guy, right? Granted, he looked a little feminine, and sounded a little feminine, but they were pretty sure he WAS a GUY. Most of his shoulder-length brown hair was loose, but he had a messy-looking bun caught up at the crown of his head. He was about as tall as Yusuke, but very slim. He didn’t look very muscular, -- actually, he looked kind of … soft? He WAS a guy, right? It was impossible to be sure from his clothing, as he was wearing a short, light blue robe like he’d just come from a public bathhouse, which in fact, he had.

They were pulled from their disturbing thoughts by the sound of snickering. Miroku had half-turned away from them, and had covered his mouth with his hand. A glance in Naraku’s direction revealed a rather nasty and malicious- looking smile directed their way. Kouga was doubled over, holding his stomach as he laughed out loud.

“Jakotsu! Please try to control yourself. We will be working closely with them until this mission is over, so please try to behave yourself, okay?” Kagome pleaded with him.

“Sugar, you know I always behave myself -- unless someone asks me not to. And then, I’m even better,” he said, giving a slow wink in Yusuke’s direction. “But, come on. Introduce me to these prime specimens of manly ningen and demon flesh.”

“From left to right, they are Kuwabara Kazuma, Urameshi Yusuke, Hiei, and Minamino Shuichi, also known as Kurama.”

Jakotsu walked up to Kuwabara first, and slowly circled him, giving him the once-over. “A little rough-looking, but the sheer size of him more than makes up for it.”

“Aren’t you a guy?” Kuwabara asked, a little hysterically.

“Oh yes. I can assure you I am more than enough man for you, my dear man-mountain.”

At that pronouncement, Kuwabara fainted. Yusuke stepped back nervously and ran his hand through his hair, breaking out in a sweat as Jakotsu approached him next.

“I do SO like the swaggering bad-boy type. You remind me of my first love. Doesn’t he remind you of Inuyasha, Kagome?” He mouthed “Later,” to him as he moved on to Hiei.

“I wouldn’t go any closer, if I were you, “ Kurama warned him, as Hiei’s hand gripped the hilt of his katana.

“Oh, but the danger adds such spice to the chase. And I do so love a forceful demon.” But he didn’t approach the angry-looking fire apparition. “Last, but certainly not least …” he murmured, stepping up closer to Kurama. His eyes roamed the avatar’s body. “You are truly delicious, my dear. I could spend hours just gazing into those beautiful green eyes of yours.” He let out a long sigh and walked back over to Kagome.

He leaned down and rested his forehead against her shoulder as he held onto her. “Whatever will I do? I … I just can’t decide. They’re all so … sexy,” he almost sobbed.

“There, there,” Kagome soothed him, rubbing his back. “Don’t let it overwhelm you. We will all have plenty of time to get to know each other. Just try not to let your obsessions get in the way of this mission, okay?”

“I’ll try. But it won’t be my fault if I have trouble concentrating. Damn sexy beasts just won’t let me be. I won‘t get a wink of sleep tonight, I just know it. … at least I hope …”


Deciding this would be a good time to take her leave, Botan told the detectives goodbye and wished them luck. Kouga told Kagome he’d check on her every now and then and also wished them all luck with a sly nod in Jakotsu’s direction. They all heard his hearty chuckles echoing around them long after the portal closed.





“That was … disturbing,” Yusuke whispered to his teammates

“What happened?” Kuwabara asked dazedly as he regained consciousness and slowly stood up. His eyes fell on Jakotsu holding onto Kagome. “Oh yeah! He IS a guy, right?”

“Yes, you baka. And now you’re engaged to him.”

“What!??!”

“Hiei, don’t tease Kuwabara like that.”

Noticing the other team hadn’t brought any luggage with them, they headed for the resort, where Kagome handed Yusuke a credit card and sent them into the shops for clothing and toiletries. As they started to protest, she told them with a twinkle in her eyes that it was on Enmaru -- he’d given her a special card charging everything directly to the Reikai’s Main Office. Jakotsu wanted to help the guys pick out clothes, and would have followed them into the dressing rooms if Kagome hadn’t asked him to accompany her to a women’s lingerie shop, for which they were all grateful.

Loaded down with bags, they all went up to check out their rooms. They had the entire top floor. There were only 4 rooms there -- two across from each other at each end of the hallway. Kagome unlocked one of the doors, and everyone piled in. It was actually a suite! There was a sitting room, with a large-screen TV and a stereo system, a sofa and a loveseat.. To the right, they could see the bedroom appeared to have 2 king-size beds. One wall of the bedroom was made of glass doors leading out onto a small balcony with a table and 4 chairs. Just off of the bedroom was a rather large bathroom with a large, oval whirlpool bathtub on a raised platform. There was a separate shower in the corner. All in all, it was luxurious, and all 8 detectives were extremely pleased with the accommodations. Now to decide who would be sleeping where.

“So, we need to decide who bunks with whom,” Kagome began.

“I still can’t decide!” Jakotsu wailed.

**Y** “Quick Red! Offer to stay with Kagome!”

*K* “You don’t really think she’ll go for that so soon, do you?”

But before Kurama or Youko could say anything out loud, two other voices spoke up.

“I volunteer to stay with Kagome-sama.”
“Obviously, I will be staying with My Miko.”
And then from Miroku and Jakotsu, “She’s NOT Your Miko!”

“I’m not rooming with either of you. I think it would be in everyone’s best interests if Jakotsu and I room together.” At Jakotsu’s disappointed look, she whispered to him, “I’ll give you that pink negligee of mine you like.”

“The one with the matching thong and garters?”

“Yes.”

**Y** “I would have liked to have seen that on her.”

*K* “Me, too.”

#H# “Hn.”

“Kuwabara and I can share a room,” Yusuke said, “And Kurama and Hiei.”

“That leaves Naraku and Miroku. Not a bad idea. It might cut down on the amount of female traffic on this floor,” Kagome decided.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about. Kagome-sama.”

“Hmmm. If it bothers you so much to think of me keeping company with another female, you know my offer is always open, my dear Miko. I will make sure you don’t regret it,” Naraku purred.

‘Uh, … did the other guys not notice he called her his Miko again?” Kuwabara asked the room at large.

“Shut up, baka!” Yusuke hissed at him, swatting him over the head with the TV’s remote control unit.

“I think we need to make some preliminary plans for the next few days, “ Kagome stated firmly. Yusuke and Kuwabara were already sitting on the couch, while Naraku and Hiei leaned against the wall at either end. Kurama motioned for Kagome to take a seat on the loveseat, then sat next to her. Miroku just sank to the floor in the middle of the room and sat with his legs crossed Indian-style. And Jakotsu scampered over and sat down on the chairarm of the loveseat right next to Kurama. He wiggled around on the armrest happily before leaning over to whisper in Kurama’s ear.

“Kagome’s a sound sleeper.”

Kurama’s eyes widened a bit with shock.

*K* “Um. Youko? A little help here?”

Youko snickered a bit before sobering up to remark, **Y** “I’m afraid he just isn’t our type, Red.”
He heard Hiei chuckling in his head.

*K* “Youko! You know what I mean! His pursuit of us might interfere with our pursuit of the woman.”

**Y** “Well damn. I hadn’t thought about that. We shall just have to make our interests in her clear.”

And with his eyes flashing from green to gold, Kurama shifted over slightly closer to Kagome, and draped his arm across the back of the seat behind her.

“Just what kinds of plans do you have in mind, love?” he asked smoothly, leaning down towards her and catching her eye so she turned towards him as she spoke.

“Well, the corporation’s retreat begins tomorrow at noon. A lot of the executives will be arriving this evening. I think we should have dinner in the big dining room, since that’s where most of them will go to eat, and perhaps we should go ahead and make contact with them.”

“When Koenma and Enmaru were explaining the situation here, we realized that whoever has the necklace may actually be working in conjunction with the demon who is gathering forces here. So, we believe we shouldn’t let the executives know we are here to guard them,” Kurama said in a soft tone that insured she would lean in towards him to hear.

“Hmmm. Naraku and I had the same thought. And he suggested that since I am the only female among us, that I should start mingling with them as soon as possible. So, while the rest of you dine as a group, I will go in with one of you, since it will be easier to break the ice with a couple of them after a little public break-up with my ‘current lover.’ Good thing there aren‘t any women attending the retreat, and not many working at the resort -- I suppose that will up my chances of attracting their attention.”

At that announcement, Kurama, Yusuke, Hiei, and Kuwabara all stared at her.

“Excuse me?” Kurama began.

“Don’t be ridiculous onna. Even if the place was teeming with females, you would have no trouble attracting their attention.”

“No kidding! I’m sure you attract that kind of attention everywhere you go,” Yusuke said, waggling his eyebrows at her.

Kagome’s face flushed and her cheeks turned an adorable shade of pink, as she lowered her eyes and fidgeted with her hands. “That’s very kind of you to say, but you don’t need to flatter me.”

Kurama reached over and covered her hands with one of his. “We are not ones to give idle compliments, Kagome.” And she blushed a deeper shade of red. Squirming a bit uncomfortably, she changed the subject.

“Um. Anyway, I think that in the morning, we should split up into partners to cover more tasks and territory. My partner and I will stay here at the resort. While I continue to try to mingle and discover who has the necklace, he will keep watch on the group as a whole inside the resort. Another team should keep a perimeter watch around the village in case of attack. The other two teams should begin searching the island for the demon forces’ camp or camps. We’ll rotate who is doing what so no one gets suspicious seeing the same faces in the same places.”

“An excellent plan. It appears you’ve thought of everything, love,” Kurama complimented her.

*K* “All that, and intelligent, too.”

**Y** “A strategic mind. We’re going to have so much fun with her!” Youko was practically hopping up and down in Kurama’s mind.

“So, what are the partnerships going to be?” Kuwabara asked, glancing fearfully in Jakotsu’s direction.

“I believe I should stay here with Kagome to look around the inside of the resort. Youko’s skills will allow me to search their rooms while they are in meetings, and I will be able to, er, shall we say, discretely procure the necklace when the time comes.”

“Youko?”

“Youko is the kitsune soul that inhabits this body. He was a thief in his former life.”

“That could be helpful indeed.”

“I also recommend that Hiei and his partner do some of the scouting. He can use his Jagan to help them locate the demon camps. Perhaps he could work with … Jakotsu?” Kurama suggested, helpfully, looking over at Hiei with his golden eyes flashing.


#H# “Fox. You try my patience. Are you attempting to clear a path for yourself to her bed by limiting my contact with her?”

**Y** “I can’t believe you would suggest such a thing. Do you deny you are probably the best tracker here? Besides, all is fair in love and war … and this is both.” Youko ended with a smirk.

Kagome looked first at Kurama, and then over to where Hiei was glaring at him. Then at Jakotsu, who was eyeing Hiei with a decidedly rapturous look on his face.

“How about it, hot stuff? You and me, alone in the woods. I’ll pack a picnic lunch and bring a nice, soft blanket.”

Speaking quickly, before Jakotsu got himself slaughtered on the spot, Kagome said, “Actually, I think Jakotsu’s skills make him more valuable in the village. As do Miroku’s.” (“Mostly because I am afraid any of the others will kill him, except maybe Kuwabara, who seems scared to death of him,”) she thought to herself, stifling the urge to giggle.

“A wise decision, as always, Kagome-sama. I will be sure to protect the village maidens, and happily leave the tracking to the demons among us.” (“And I don’t think any of Koenma’s detectives can put up with Jakotsu,”) Miroku added silently.

Now Jakotsu had crossed his arms in front and was pouting and mumbling to himself. “It would have been so lovely …”

“Jakotsu, you do realize that not all of the executives will be interested in women, don’t you? While they won’t be nearly as attractive as our new teammates, you may need to force yourself to pay attention to them. For the mission, of course,” Kagome pointed out.


*K* “She really is quite clever and diplomatic.”

**Y** “Indeed, Red. She made a logical argument based on individual skills and then soothed that creature’s feelings at the same time. And let’s not forget, she admitted she finds us attractive, too.”


#H# “You are fortunate the onna is intelligent enough to know better than to send that abomination off with me. And she didn’t say she found you attractive -- she mentioned all of us, and that was only an offhand comment to divert his attention to the ningen males.”

Switching their attention back to the conversation at hand, they noticed Kagome was frowning slightly. She looked at Yusuke and Kuwabara, and then at Naraku and Hiei. She would have preferred pairing Naraku and Hiei with one of the others to balance out their strengths, but had the idea neither of them would fare well with Kuwabara. She turned to Yusuke and asked,

“Do you normally work with Kuwabara?”

“Yeah, I guess he’s my partner most of the time.”

“I am unfamiliar with your talents. Do either of you have special abilities for hunting demons?”

“Kuwabara has a very strong sense of awareness of auras and energy levels.”

“Good. Then why don’t you two continue to work together and Naraku and Hiei
can be partners. We’ll have a better handle of everyone’s skills and methods after a few days and can reevaluate things then. Does that sound all right with everyone?”

At everyone’s agreement, Kagome suggested everyone unpack and prepare for the evening’s venture to the dining room.

“We just need to decide one more thing, Kagome,” Kurama said in a low, husky voice. “Who will play the part of your ‘current lover’ and go to dinner with you this evening? I would be happy to offer my services.”

She looked at him thoughtfully for a moment before replying, “No, that won’t do. If we’re going to stage a public argument, it would be better for it to be one of the guys who will be gone most of the day. Out of sight, out of mind, you know. Since you will be hanging around here at the resort, your presence might hinder my attempts to get close to these other men if they think we’re together.”

“That leaves Naraku, Hiei, Yusuke, or Kuwabara. Who shall it be?” Miroku asked.

“No one would believe that she would turn to another man so soon after being with me, so it will have to be one of the others,” Naraku informed them.

“Ego much?” Yusuke rolled his eyes at him.

“I will do it,” Hiei said, once again completely surprising Yusuke and Kuwabara.

“All right then. Why don’t we all meet back here at 6:00 before we go down?”

Hiei smirked at Kurama.

**Y** “Hmph. Don’t look so smug. You do realize your role calls for you to ‘break up’ with her so those ningen men will know she’s available.”

#H# “True. But first I will have a leisurely dinner alone with her, and I will be back here at night. Just think how nice it will be when we ‘make up.’ Yes, I think I will look forward to that.”

Youko felt rather frustrated at this turn of events and growled in Kurama’s head.

*K* “Youko, you’re giving me a headache. We will be here at the resort with her. There will be plenty of opportunities to get to know her better.”

**Y** “You’re right, Red, and I know the perfect way to start ‘getting to know her better.’ Let me talk to her.”

Pushing himself to the front for the moment, Youko turned to Kagome before leaving. “I believe it would be useful for you to learn how to pick pockets. If the man who has the necklace keeps it on his person, you may be the one who needs to take it from him. I would be happy to teach you.”

“That sounds like a good idea. Could you start teaching me in the morning?”

“Certainly, “ he purred.

*K* “What are you up to, Youko?”

**Y** “Just think of it, Red! Our hands, roaming her body, showing her how to stealthily remove things from various areas …. letting her practice on us ….” he shivered at the thought.


#H# “Sneaky bastard.”


**Y** “Enjoy your dinner, Hiei.”


“What are you going to wear Kagome? I can fix your hair and …”

They heard Jakotsu’s voice trail off as the door closed and they wandered out into the hall heading to their rooms.
