Hiring the Thief
"Call in Inuyasha and the Spirit Detective team!" ordered King Enma. "This is urgent!"
"Yes, sir!" replied Botan, as she zoomed off on her oar. First she zoomed through the
portal room into the past. "Um, excuse me." Botan called softly. Inuyasha and Kikyou broke
apart from their kiss, and glared at Botan.
"What?" demanded Inuyasha.
"Remember the deal?" asked Botan. "That if we brought Kikyou back to life that you will
be at our service when need be?"
"Yes." replied Inuyasha, annoyance clearly shown.
"King Enma has a really important assignment, and requires your presence." Botan
explained.
"Fine." grunted Inuyasha, as he promised to come back to Kikyou as soon as possible.
"Come on!" As Inuyasha went through the portal to Spirit World, Botan went through another to
find Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Hiei.
"Yusuke!" yelled Botan, as she ran into both Keiko and Yusuke. "Spirit World calls! It's
a real emergency!"
"When was it not an emergency?" Yusuke asked, annoyed.
"If it really is an emergency, Yusuke, go. I can walk home myself!" urged Keiko, as
Botan grabbed Yusuke and took off.
"There's the idiot!" pointed Yusuke.
"Kuwabara, come on! This is urgent!" cried Botan, as Kuwabara tried to climb a really
tall pine tree.
"Wait a sec!" called Kuwabara. "Eikichi, come on."
"Meow!" cried the cat, as she landed on Kuwabara's face. Sending them both tumbling
down.
"Got you!" cried Botan, as she hugged the cat close to her. (How many of you thought she
caught Kuwabara? Come on, tell me!) "Sorry Kuwabara!" cried Botan, looking at large crater
Kuwabara was in. "I forgot you were falling too!"
"That's okay." murmured Kuwabara, in a slight daze. "At least Eikichi's safe."
"Okay, let's go!" cried Botan, as she grabbed Kuwabara and placed the cat on the grass.
"Wait!" cried Kuwabara, as Botan ignored him. "I can't leave Eikichi all by herself there!
People will pick on her!"
"Botan!" called King Enma. "Hiei is here already."
"Okay." replied Botan, as she entered a portal to Spirit World.

"Took you long enough." snorted Inuyasha.
"Hn." snorted Hiei, as Botan dropped Kuwabara and Yusuke from the air. Thump!
"This is going to be a very dangerous mission, that I am sending you on." explained King
Enma. "The Lord of all the Lords of Makai...."
"Hold it right there!" cried Yusuke. "The lord of the lords of Makai? Is there such a
title?"
"Yes." replied King Enma, growing angry. "The Lord of the Lords of Makai has more
power than all the lords combined. He can be seen as the god of the demons. The one and only.
He was thought to be killed when the humans, spirit dwellers, and demons combined all our
strength with the help of the shikon no tama to destroy him."
"But we thought wrong." continued King Enma, after a pause, to let everything sink in.
"He did not die, and he has come back, ten times stronger than before."
"What?" yelled Inuyasha. "If he was stronger than the powers of all three worlds and the
shikon no tama combined before, and now he's ten times stronger, do you expect US to destroy
him?"
"No, of course not!" replied King Enma, losing patience. "It's impossible to kill him.
Good thing he's NOT immortal. But he still won't die for another few hundred thousand years."
"So, what do you want us to do?" asked Hiei, who was getting interested.
"He is threatening us, that if we do not give him back his daughter, he will destroy the
Spirit and Human world, with all it's inhabitants. And he has always completed his threats, and
he has more than enough power to destroy both worlds hundred times over." added King Enma,
as he clenched his fists.
"So you want us to find his daughter?" asked Kuwabara. "What does she look like? And
how did she get lost?"
"We do not know what she looks like. She escaped when the three worlds combined to
destroy her father. She could be anywhere is the universe. That's all we know. You have exactly,
um, one year to find her. Starting......now!" finished King Enma.
"What?" yelled Inuyasha. "Then we better move it!"
"Wait!" yelled King Enma. "Your not going to be able to find her like that, even if you
had one hundred years to search! You will go ask for the help of Kagome Higurashi, a young girl
with the ability to sense and purify demons. She will be able to tell who the daughter of the lord
is, when you are in a mile radius of her. Her senses as a miko should allow her to sense the royal
blood."
"But what if she won't do it?" demanded Inuyasha. "She's not in debt to you, is she?"
"No." replied King Enma. "Bring this to her," he stated, as he took out a blue jewel. "This
is the shikon no tama. Take this as a gift." Yusuke took it, and pocketed it.
"Not done." roared King Enma, as everyone turned around. "How do you suppose you are
going to track down the girl? You can't track her down in a year, especially when she could be in
all three worlds!"
"Then what?" asked Yusuke. "Sit on the couch, and wait for her to knock on the door and
say, ‘hello, I'm the daughter of the lord of the lords! Take me to my father!'"
"No." replied King Enma, as he glared at Yusuke. "You will go ask for the help of Youko
Kurama, the greatest bandit of all three worlds."
"Bandit?" asked Yusuke. "You want us to hire a thief to help? You must be going nuts!"
"No, I'm not." replied King Enma. "His skills should help you in tracking her down. Take
this as a gift." as he handed Yusuke a white stone. "It powers up the holder's power level by
three folds."
"I was thinking." stated Kuwabara, as Hiei snorted. "Wouldn't it be easier for him if he
just stole it?"
"That's why I'm sending you guys to make the treaty." yelled King Enma, as everyone
quickly scrambled out before he sent everyone to the pits of hell.

~Makai~
"His hide-out should be around here." yelled Kuwabara, as Yusuke covered his mouth.
"What do you think your doing?" seethed Yusuke. "Do you want him to know that we're
here?"
"Wasn't that the point?" asked a cold voice. Suddenly vines shot out from the ground and
caged everyone in. A figure in white landed in front of the cage and smirked. He was clad in
white from head to toe. His hair was silvery white. "I doubt you came all this way from the
human world to just sneak around here."
"Stupid fox." murmured Hiei.
"Actually, I am very intelligent." snarled Kurama. "Don't bother trying to burn up my
vines. They're fire proof."
"We came here to make a deal!" yelled Yusuke, as he took out the white stone. "You help
us locate a demon girl, and this is yours!"
"I do not accept." answered Kurama immediately. "I don't like it when people hand me
rare things. I enjoy stealing."
"Yes, that's definitely Kurama." added another demon, as he walked toward us.
"Kuronue." said Kurama. "Need something?"
"No." replied Kuronue. "Other than the fact you should accept their offer."
"And why is that?" asked Kurama, dryly.
"It's challenging. I know you love challenges, and just stealing is getting way to easy
these days. I'll even accompany you." replied Kuronue, as Kurama narrowed his eyes.
"Kuronue, you know me way to well." murmured Kurama, as he released his victims.
"Fine, we will help you." Yusuke handed Youko Kurama the stone.
"Hey, Urameshi!" yelled Kuwabara. "Can we trust him? What if he just took off?" Youko
Kurama had Kuwabara pinned against the tree with his plants in a second.
"I always keep my word." snarled Kurama. "Are you saying that I will break my word?"
"Never mind him." snorted Inuyasha.
"Yes." added Hiei. "The idiot never thinks before he says anything."
"Then let's go." said Kuronue.
"Wait, we still have to get Kagome Higurashi." called Yusuke.
"Feh. I don't see what a weak human girl can do." stated Inuyasha, as he walked away.
"Where is she?" asked Kurama in a bored tone.
"Human world. At the shrine." replied Hiei, as the really odd group made their way to the
human world.
