Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ An Old Enemy ❯ A New Mission ( Chapter 1 )

A New Mission

 

“What happened?” Yusuke cried as he burst into Koenma's office. The little demi-god looked up from his work in confusion.

 

“What on earth are you talking about?”

 

“What happened to my children?” Sasha begged.

 

Koenma studied the group before him in shock. As far as he knew Hoshi and Bara were safe at home. If anything had happened then he no information at all. Sighing he sat back in his seat.

 

“Explain to me what is going on here please.”

 

Kurama began, “A demon by the name of Kend took Hoshi and Bara in the middle of the night. He says that if we want to see them alive again then we have to go to Makai.”

 

“Kend?!” Koenma cried, “How did he escape? He was in the dungeons here in the Reikai! I had the best soldiers guarding him. I took every precaution so how could he have gotten out?”

 

Yusuke held up a hand, “Okay slow down. Who is this guy and why does he want revenge?”

 

Koenma settled down instantly, “Hundreds of years ago when Kurama was still at large, there was another demon who would eat any human who happened to stumble into Makai. Now Kurama and Sasha found this disgraceful and weak. So on one of their many raids they stumbled across him as he was escaping my father's Spirit Detectives. They caught him offguard and easily defeated him and left him lying there upon the ground. He never forgave them for stopping him. So somehow he escaped and took their children so that way he could destroy them.”

 

Everyone turned to look at the loving parents. Both held onto each other tightly to try and consule their grief. Their children had been taken from them and just the thought was killing them. Hiei was the first to approach them. Silently he fell to his knees before them.

 

“Hiei?”

 

“I am going to help you get those two back safe,” Hiei swore, “I am going to help you no matter what.”

 

The others nodded before Kuwabara turned to Koenma, “What about Tony and Kathjina? Won't they want to help?”

 

Koenma sighed, “They are currently on another job at the moment and can't be spared. But I shall let them know about this.”

 

“Thank you,” Kurama whispered.

 

Koenma leaned forward and put his hands on his desk, “Alright, we need to take action. Detectives, you have a new mission. You are to go to Makai and retrieve those children at all costs. I will search for any information I can find on Kend and his movements. Good luck, all of you.”

*****************

The portal closed behind them. The Spirit Detectives carefully surveyed their surroundings before moving forward to begin their search. They had nowhere to begin and so they had to find a demon village to look for clues. The problem was that Kend could be anywhere.

 

The detectives had only been walking for a few minutes when both Kurama and Sasha physically relaxed. The others looked confused at exchanged glanced before Kuwabara stepped forward.

 

“Um you guys?”

 

“Yes Kuwabara?” Sasha questioned.

 

“Why are you so relaxed? I mean we are in Makai.”

 

Kurama laughed, “We are relaxed because I am apparently still feared amoung the demons in this area. All of my territory marks are still here. That means that we will be safe since this is still my territory. If any demon dares to challenge another demon's territory they usually have a death wish. I'm just glad that my marks are still up after all these years.”

 

“Oh well then that helps us a little.”

 

“Yes it does because that means that the demons here will be more than willing to help once they realize that Kurama here is their lord and master,” Sasha agreed, “It is a great advantage one that could come in handy when we get to the village.”

 

Together they walked in silence until they reached the village. It was bustling with activity as demons gathered here and there for different reasons. Slowly the group moved through the crowd until Kurama led them into a bar. When they entered everything went silent. Humans did not often walk freely into buildings filled with demons. Eventually though, they all went back to ignoring the newcomers.

 

The detectives found a booth to sit at and studied the various demons around them until a waitress came over. She looked like a human being but the demonic aura that surrounded her said otherwise. With her hands on her hips she sighed.

 

“May I help you?”

 

Kurama smiled, “Yes actually. We'll take a Flame, two Aquas, a Fury, and a Kisu no Ume.”

 

The waitress faltered, “Uh who are each of these drinks for?”

 

“The Flame is for the fire demon, the Aquas are for those two over there, the Fury is for my lady, and the Kisu no Ume is for me.”

 

“Okay I can understand the first three orders but if you and the girl drink what you ordered then you'll be killed.”

 

“Well then I suppose that you won't have to worry about us stinking up the place then.”

 

“Whatever you say. Those will be ready in just a second.”

 

Next Time:

The drinks have been ordered and now the testing time comes. Hiei, Yusuke, and Kuwabara can easily finish off their drinks but then it comes back to Sasha and Kurama. What is is they have and why would it supposedly kill them? Find out on The Return of Kurama and Sasha.
