I do not own yu yu hakusho!!!!
Chapter 2: “My name is Kanu. I live in a small village of part-breeds in a forest not unlike this one,” She started. “About 6 months ago, a group of our people started to act very strangely. They said they heard voices and that they were being called to serve some guy in demon world. This was really weird because most of them were young demons, about 30 years old or so that had never been to the demon world. I was there when they were born and have been with them their whole lives and know for a fact they have never left the village. There are strict rules where we live, forbidding any unapproved travel between worlds and even other villages. Anyways, we all shrugged it off as them trying to get some attention. Then about 3 months ago, they disappeared. We had no idea where they went until about 3 weeks ago when they came back. They looked very strange.” “How do you mean strange?” Yusuke asked her. “Their eyes. They looked as if they were possessed, and their bodies were twice the size they were when they disappeared. They told us that they had been in Makai and that a demon there was trying to take it over. He was offering powers that you couldn’t even imaging for those who would come willingly. There were quite a few of us that were skeptical about the whole thing, but some of the younger demons went for the bait. One of them managed to find a way back to warn us of the dangers that awaited them if they resisted. He went with the other demon recruits to another village. It was supposedly the second visit to the village. Any one who didn’t come willingly was tied up and dragged along anyways. What was really disturbing was what happened to them after they got to Makai. They were fed to the demon who was responsible for this whole thing.” Kurama thought for a minute. “If this demon is able to take control of other demons, we may have a problem. There’s no telling what else he could do, or who he could use to fight for him.” “Wait, didn’t you say earlier that he’s only recruiting Part-breeds, Kurama?” Yusuke asked “So far, yes, that’s all I was told of.” “Well, what if he can only control part and half breeds and not full blooded demons?” “It’s possible, I suppose. But that still puts us in a terrible position.” “Why would they come to the human world to get demons when they are a ton more right there in Makai?” Kuwabara asked, as usual half confused by the situation. “That’s a good question,” Hiei admitted reluctantly, “but that’s what we need to find out. I don’t want some upstart taking control of Makai before Makuro or I get the chance to over throw him.” “Oh get over yourself shorty. We all know you were only working with that creepy lady to make sure Kurama and Yusuke didn’t get themselves in trouble,” Kuwabara said in an offhanded manor. “Unless there’s something going on between you two.” Hiei put his hand on the hilt of his katana and glared at the idiot. “I was just joking. Geeze, you don’t have to kill me.” “Maybe I do. It would be fun to get you out of my hair once and for all.” “Boys, boys. This is no time for fist fights,” Yusuke said, stepping in between the two. “And besides, if anyone’s going to kill Kuwabara, it’s me.” “Can we get back to the matter at hand?” Kurama said finally. “Sure, but there’s not really anything I can do about it until after the honeymoon. Keiko has her heart set on this trip, and she has already threatened me that if I some how got myself mixed up in other world affairs before it, she’ll personally take away my manhood.” Even Hiei cringed at that thought. “Kurama and I can do some scouting before the wedding and while you’re away. We’ll have the girl take us to her village and check it out.” “Just don’t get yourselves caught in the process.” Yusuke warned. “We have no idea how strong this guy is and if I remember right, Neither of you are pure blooded demons.” Hiei glared at the detective for mentioning that in front of the oaf. “Wait, I thought Hiei was a full blown Fire demon. That’s why he can do that whole dragon thingy.” “Don’t assume anything. Over half of demon world is made up of half and mixed breeds.” He replied gruffly. “Wait,” Kanu urged, “My village would never listen to an outsider. I must go with you. We have to hurry. The demon recruiters said that they would be back in 2 weeks and it has already been 4 days!” She stood up, wanting to do everything she could to help her people. Pain set in as she tried to grab the katana at her side. She fell to her knees and Yusuke was right there for her to lean on. “Let’s take her back inside. We have to get some information from her and I think Hiei can help.” Kurama urged as he helped Yusuke steady her. Hiei glared at Kurama, knowing what he was up to. He obviously did not like it one bit. Kurama gave him a look that settled the silent argument with out question. Sometimes he hated that Kitsune. Once they got Kanu back onto the bed mat Hiei came over to her. “I need you to relax. I’m going to search your mind for some specific information. I should not be able to see anything but the information I am seeking. My Jagan is very good at what it does and has never failed me yet.” Kanu nodded and Hiei put a hand to her forehead. It took him a couple seconds to find what he was looking for. Once he was done he removed his hand and looked at Kurama. “Her village is a day’s run from here. We should be able to bring all of the villagers back here with in 4 days. There aren’t many. 100 at the most. Only a couple elderly that would need additional care.” “That’s the plan then. We will bring them back here to our safe haven. If the demons come after them we will be here to get rid of the problem.” “There is an area in the woods,” Genkai spoke up, “It’s a large area and there will be plenty of space. There are several buildings there. I will notify those who live around the area to keep an eye out for suspicious things and to not disturb the villagers while they are here. “We’ll leave the day after the wedding.” Kurama stated. “That will give Kanu some time to heal, with some help from Yukina, and a Few more men to take along on the journey.” Hiei scoffed at having to bring Chuu and Yusuke’s other rivals along on the trip. They would only slow them down. Then again it would give him a reason to stay in the trees. After making arrangements for the trip and where the guests would stay, Yukina and Keiko had returned from town. They were all staying at Genkai’s for the night to so that Yukina could help with Kanu and they could still smooth out last minute details. The first night went pretty well. Kanu was healing quite well for her condition and the girls were still as excited as ever. They moved the last of their planning to Genkai’s so that Kanu could join in. They took her right into the group like she had always been there, never once asking about he past. After a few hours of the girls planning and the guys figuring out what to do when Yusuke and Kuwabara got back, Kanu needed some fresh air. She excused herself and went out to the back porch. She sat there and enjoyed the peace of everything. Shizuru came out not long after. “It’s days like this I wish I had never quit smoking. Then I come out here and look at the beauty of it all and what my life has given me and I realize I don’t need it.” She sat down next to Kanu. “Why did you quit? You don’t look like someone afraid of dying early.” Kanu never once took her gaze off of the sky. “My fiancee. He told me he’d only date me if I quit smoking. I already had it bad for him and I had a feeling about him. I guess it’s a good thing I didn’t ignore that feeling. I wouldn’t have what I have now if I had.” Kanu thought for a minute. “So, Keiko, Yukina, and you are getting married to.. Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama. Do I have that right?” Kanu asked. “Yup.” Shizuru took a sip of the water she had brought out with her. “Does that mean that Hiei and that Botan girl are together?” Shizuru almost spit out her water at the thought. She swallowed and started laughing a bit. “No kiddo. They can’t stand each other. Although it would be funny seeing them together. I don’t think Hiei would last with her nonsense. He’s the quiet type. Always keeps to himself.”
