[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Mukuro5: I know it's been awhile but I've been busy. School has been a real pain lately. Oh, well. So here is the new chapter.
 
Hiei: mukuro5 does not own YYH…
 
Mukuro5: yeah, yeah, yeah. Just Shin and Muie.
 
Chapter 5: Double Crossed
 
Shin walked down the stairs but only Hiei, Mukuro, and Yusuke were in the living room now.
 
“I have an extra kimono if you wish to change out of your battered clothes,” Mukuro offered, looking over to Shin.
 
“Umm…Yeah. That'd be great. Thank you,” Shin answered.
 
Mukuro walked up the stairs and to her and Hiei's room. Yusuke got to his feet from where he sat on the couch.
 
“So your name's Shin. Shin, I'm…” Yusuke was cut off.
 
“Yusuke Urameshi. You're a Spir…ex-Spirit Detective. Oh! And the son of Raizen. Let's see…you are married to Keiko Yukimora, no children just yet, and you still have that punk attitude you have always had,” Shin started to give off all the knowledge she knew about him.
 
“Wow! How do you know all that? I never even met you before,” Yusuke asked.
 
Hiei looked over to them through narrowed eyes.
 
“It comes with the job,” Shin answered.
 
Hiei got to his feet. “So what is your job exactly?” Yusuke asked, one eyebrow rising above the other in a questioning expression.
 
“Well…I'm an investigator. If someone needs info on a human or demon they come to me. I then find out what they need to know,” she replied with an incredibly realistic fake smile.
 
“That's cool, I guess,” Yusuke gave his approval.
 
Mukuro walked down the stairs with a black kimono draped over her left arm and Muie in the right. Shin turned to her, as did Hiei and Yusuke. Mukuro handed the kimono over to Shin.
 
“Thank you,” Shin said with a bow before taking the kimono in her arms.
 
Muie rubbed her eyes, yawned, and put her head on her mothers shoulder. Hiei walked over to Mukuro.
 
“I'll put her to bed,” he offered in a whisper, looking at Muie.
 
“Alright,” Mukuro said, handing over the half-asleep Muie.
 
Hiei took Muie in both of his arms. She wasn't quite as tall as her father so it took very little effort on Hiei's part. Hiei then started to walk back up the stairs with his sleeping daughter.
 
“Shin, I'll show you to the guest room,” Mukuro said, walking towards the staircase.
 
“Thank you for your kindness,” Shin said as she followed Mukuro.
 
Yusuke then went into the kitchen.
 
----Up in Muie's Room----
 
Hiei placed Muie in her bed gently so not to stir his daughter. Muie rolled onto her side so she was facing her father. Her eyes were half open as she looked at her dad.
 
“Daddy,” Muie whispered still being tired and all.
 
“Yes?” Hiei answered.
 
“Please don't let him get me,” she said, sitting up in her bed.
 
“What do you mean `him'?” Hiei asked, sitting on the edge of her bed.
 
“The man that keeps sending all these demons after me. He wants us dead. He wants all of us dead.”
 
“Where did you meet this man?”
 
“He comes every night in my dreams.”
 
Hiei then got to his feet, and walked towards the doorway. “He won't get you. I'll protect you,” Hiei vowed before shutting the door. He just blew it off thinking it was his daughter's imagination.
 
----Dawn----
 
Shin was standing on the balcony of the guest room. The wind was cold but felt good on her bare skin. The breeze played with her long black hair.
 
“It's time,” she thought.
 
Shin walked out of the guest room and snuck quietly down the hall. She stopped at a door that was only a door or two away from the room she was just in. Shin slowly reached for the doorknob. She suddenly stopped a centimeter away from it.
 
“What am I doing?” she thought, looking at the doorknob. “Helping someone…doing my job,” she mumbled.
 
So with that Shin opened the door slowly and walked into the dark room. She looked upon the innocent face before her as the first rays of sunlight fell on it. Shin walked over and picked up the sleeping little girl. Muie moved slightly but she never woke up. Shin then walked out of the room with Muie in her arms. As she walked to the top of the stairs, she heard a familiar voice.
 
“Where are you going?” asked the sweet, cold voice of a guy.
 
“Please. Let me leave in peace. I do not want a fight,” Shin admitted, looking down the stairs.
 
Kurama walked up behind her. “Whatever the reason is you came, I do not care. But you are not taking Muie,” Kurama said rather coldly.
 
Shin turned her head towards him. “Kurama…Shuichi…Whatever you want to be called, I have to. The job…” Shin was cut off right there.
 
“How do you know my human name?” Kurama ordered, anger and concern for is loved ones showing in his eyes.
 
“Let me leave. I don't want to fight you nor anyone else.”
 
“Hand Muie over to me and I shall let you leave unharmed.”
 
“Leave me be!” Shin commanded, running down the stairs.
 
Kurama gave pursuit and got in front of her at the door.
 
“I don't have time for this!” Shin said angrily.
 
Energy then burst from her body, pushing Kurama back. Shin took the opportunity to run pass Kurama and into the forest. Kurama transformed into his Youko form and ran after her.
 
----Back at the House----
 
Hiei and Mukuro both felt the energy blast and ran out of their room. Mukuro ran straight for Muie's bedroom out of instinct.
 
When she opened the door she screamed, “MUIE!”
 
Hiei ran down the stairs once he heard his wife's scream. Mukuro followed him out of the door, and into the forest just as the sun shown above the treetops.
 
----With Shin and Kurama----
 
Shin dodged some trees, making sure she didn't wake the sleeping child in her arms. Youko followed right on her tail. She looked back at him chasing her.
 
“Cheater. Fine! If you're going to use your demon form, then so will I,” Shin said, going up in a blinding white light.
 
Youko stopped and covered his eyes from the bright light. A few seconds later the light disappeared. When he looked up there stood a female bat demon. She wore a jet black ninja style outfit, black hair with dark navy blue tips, dark purple eyes, and black/dark navy blue bat wings jetting out of her back. She turned to the Youko, Muie in her arms.
“If you value your life I suggest you stop following me,” she warned with a serious expression on her face and in her eyes.
 
“This must be your true form,” Youko said, looking her up and down.
 
“Of course,” Shin answered, “now I must leave you.”
 
And with that Shin spread her wings and took to the cloudless, colorful morning sky.
 
“Shin!” he yelled.
 
Hiei then came running out of the trees.
 
“Kurama, where's…” Youko running off, which cut off Hiei's question.
 
Mukuro came running out of the trees right at that moment.
 
“Follow me, Mukuro,” Hiei said, jumping onto a branch of a tree.
 
He jumped from one to another, following the fox's trail. Mukuro did as told and
ran on the ground under Hiei.
 
----With Shin----
 
Shin flew over the trees of the forest. As she did Muie started to stir in her arms.
When Shin looked down to the child, Muie was looking back up at her. She was obviously still sleepy by her tired expression.
 
“Good morning, Muie,” Shin said sweetly.
 
“Who are you? Let me go!” Muie demanded, pushing away from Shin.
 
Shin accidentally let go of Muie after she punched her right cheek pretty hard for a seven year old. Muie screamed as gravity pulled her towards the treetops. Shin dove straight down and caught Muie in her arms while leveling out.
 
“Muie! Muie, it's me. It's Shin,” Shin said.
 
“Shin?” Muie said, hugging her tightly from the scare she just experienced.
 
“You sure are strong for such a young thing,” Shin complimented the child, remembering the punch gave to her right cheek.
 
“Mother and Father trained me. Mostly Mother,” Muie said proudly.
 
After that was said they flew on in silence for a few moments.
 
“Where are we going?” Muie asked, looking straight ahead.
 
“To see my boss. He wishes to meet you,” Shin explained.
 
Just then a fireball flew from the trees below and just barley singed Shin's leg.
 
“No,” Shin said softly, looking down at the three demons following them.
 
“Mother! Father! Hi!” Muie yelled, waving happily.
 
“Muie, please. Let us be quiet.”
 
Another fireball came but this time Shin veered to the left and it missed.
 
“Rose Whip!” Kurama called out, now back in his human form.
 
The whip grabbed Shin's ankle since she was flying near the treetops.
 
“Dang it, Shuichi! Let go!” Shin ordered, hovering above the spirit fox that was on the top of a tree.
 
“Let Muie go!” Kurama demanded, “or I'll take off your ankle!”
 
“Shuichi! I don't want to…” Shin was cut off.
 
“Uncle Youko! That's rude! Let Shin go!” Muie orderedShin walked down the stairs but only Hiei, Mukuro, and Yusuke were in the living room now.
 
“I have an extra kimono if you wish to change out of your battered clothes,” Mukuro offered, looking over to Shin.
 
“Umm…Yeah. That'd be great. Thank you,” Shin answered.
 
Mukuro walked up the stairs and to her and Hiei's room.
.
 
“No, Muie. I can't,” Kurama stated.
 
Muie summoned an energy ball and threw it at the whip. The whip tore in two. Shin took what was around her ankle and threw it to the ground. Then Muie and herself flew off.
 
“Let's go,” Mukuro said from a tree branch under Hiei's.
 
“Right,” both Hiei and Kurama said.
 
They all ran off after Shin.
 
----With Shin and Muie----
 
“Arigato, Muie,” Shin said with a sweet smile.
 
“So who's your boss?” Muie asked.
 
“He's a kind man. His name is...”
