Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ If I Am All Of You, What Is Me? ❯ The Finding ( Chapter 1 )

The demon ran as fast as it could down the street, its pace hindered by wounds, from which blood leaked onto the ground. This figure panted heavily and ran almost blindly, earning stares and startled cries of the other people on the sidewalk and road. Behind it ran team Uremeshi, some of their members screaming at it.

Koenma, prince of Spirit world, had sent the team after the demon a week ago, and they had been tracking it since then. The demon looked behind it, and groaned, pushing her speed up as far as it could go. It wore ragged clothing that consisted of a black cloak, cowl, and hood. Only its eyes were visible and they were brown. Occasionally the cloak tipped back a little bit to reveal some very muddy and torn jeans. As for its shirt? It remained a mystery.

It was wounded on the side, leg, and arm; noticeable only by the large splotches of blood on the cloak.

Suddenly, the short demon ducked into an alley, it looked around for a place to hide and found no really good ones so it ducked behind a garbage can. It drew its knees up to its chest and began to rock back an forth; sobs barely audible from it's small form even though no tears came.

Yusuke grunted as Hiei sped past him.

"It went into the alley, Uremeshi!" Kuwabara shouted from behind.

"I can see that genius!" Yusuke shot back angrily. This demon had been avoiding them all week and now they had finally given chase. Kurama was next to him.

"Don't worry, Yusuke. Hiei wont let it get away."

In the alley, the demon, in haring their yelling winced and pushed itself up. It's brown eyes darted around wildly and a lock of dirty blond hair came from under the cloak. It found a fence and was about to jump when a heavy force knocked into it.

Hiei and the figure rolled around, grappling and the later winced as dirt, oil, and gravel lodged themselves into the wounds it supported.

Just as the rest of the Uremeshi team came around the corner the grappling stopped as Hiei had successfully pinned the demon, which starred into a pair of ruby eyes that looked startled for a minute before changing back to their normal selves.

Suddenly, the demon started to struggle again and Hiei put more pressure on its shoulder wound, immediately a screech could be heard and the struggling stopped.

"Cheater!" the demon rasped out.

"Mercy is for the weak." Hiei retorted in a cutthroat manor.

"Hiei." Was all Kurama said before Hiei got up, taking the demon with him and restraining it easily he turned to face them.

"Who are you?" Yusuke asked roughly, obviously in a bad mood. The figure didn't answer and choose to ignore the angry Spirit detective. Koenma hadn't explained the situation so he had every right to be angry.

"You know that hood of yours is getting on my nerves!" Yusuke roughly yanked the hood off and the Uremeshi team could only stare wide eyed at the sight that met them.

"A woman." Hiei said in disgust.

There before Team Uremeshi stood a girl, short in stature with wide brown eyes and blonde hair that was dyed midnight blue at the tips. She had a foxtail and fox ears as well as human ears; and her right human ear was pierced twice. She wore a pair of dark blue glasses and was obviously fighting between fright and anger. A blue tear gem hung from her neck and she was obviously worse for wear.

"You mean we've been chasing a girl?" Kuwabara said, looking the girl up and down.

"Who are you?" Yusuke was obviously calm now. She looked straight into Yusuke's eyes.

"Nobody."

"What kind of lame answer is that?"

"Yusuke." Kurama reprimanded softly.

"What?!"

"There is no need to yell, she is obviously wounded so we should have no trouble taking her to Koenma." At the mention of Koenma the girl immediately began thrashing in Hiei's hold.

"Let me go you asshole!" she yelled, and then stepped on Hiei's foot, causing him to let go for a second in surprise. She took that time to make a dash for the street but Yusuke grabbed her arm, and then pulled her back; restraining her arms completely.

"Now calm down!" She struggled fiercely, but it only took her a few minutes to fall limply to her knees, panting and gasping.

"Well, can we go now?" Hiei started walking with his hands shoved in his pockets.

"Ya sure why not?"

"Wait Uremeshi!"

"What is it NOW Kuwabara?" Kuwabara grinned cheekily and knelt down by the girl.

"I'm Kazuma, Kuwabara; what is your name pretty lady?" In response the girl spit on Kuwabara's shoe. Kuwabara yelped and got up.

"Eww!" He wiped his shoes on some grass that was desperately trying to grow in the alley.

"Hn, idiot."

"Watch it Hiei!" Kurama stayed silent as Kuwabara began yelling insults. Yusuke sighed and pulled the girl to her feet. She mumbled something under her breath.

"Can you walk or not?" she shook her head, lowering her fox ears flat to her head. Yusuke sighed and knelt down, his back to her.

"Get on." When she made no move to do so he wrapped his arm around her legs and forced her on. He stood and joined the rest of his team.

Koenma waited in his office with Botan and George at either side of him. He tapped his fingers impatiently and his brow was furrowed.

"Are they here yet!?"

"No, `fraid not Koenma Sir." George said with a sweat drop.

"Oh do have patience." Botan added with a sigh, looking at the ceiling at praying Yusuke would arrive soon, before Koenma blew a gasket!

"Hey toddler!" Koenma's head shot up as Yusuke walked in with Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei not far behind-well, Hiei WAS farther away than the others, but anyway.

"Did you finish your assignment?" Koenma stared at him expectantly, before finally noticing the girl on the spirit detective's back.

"Oh, Lord Koenma, you didn't tell me she was hurt!" Botan immediately rushed foreword and began to heal the girl to the best of her ability. The gash on her arm remained unhealed, as her energies were too exhausted to fix it. The demon girl didn't seem to mind this as she dislodged herself from Yusuke with out another thought.

"Good job Yusuke." Botan patted his arm with a big smile.

"I did have help." Yusuke muttered, loathing the attention.

"Thank you guys too!" Botan crooned. Kuwabara blushed as he always did whenever a girl talked to him. Hiei simply rolled his eyes at the large oaf and muttered something that Kuwabara couldn't hear, luckily.

The girl scowled at Koenma and spit at him.

"Snake." She said, her voice full of malice and hatred. Koenma didn't even bat an eye.

"You shouldn't talk to me like that, after all I am your creator."

"Creator my ass! So tell me `daddy' did you tell your little pets about your experiment."

"Don't start that, they don't need to know."

"Know what?" Kuwabara asked, confusion clearly written on his face.

"They don't need to know!!? They don't need to know!? You used their fucking DNA you asshole!"

"N-Now, don't go there!" Botan sweat dropped at Yusuke gave her a cold stare.

"Explain, now." Hiei ordered, his red eyes flashing at Koenma and his hand inching towards his katana. Kurama's eyes even narrowed, but Kuwabara remained completely ignorant. He smartly chose to listen to what was going on before opening his mouth.

Koenma, by now was receiving cold stares from almost everyone in the room.

"I.. uh.. he, he…" he pulled at his collar, cold sweats running down his face. Even George was inching towards the wall, holding hid clipboard that he thought would defend him.

"Explain now Koenma."

"Yes, please do." Koenma looked at the three glares he was receiving and cleared his throat nervously. The demon girl folded her arms.

"Go on `daddy'. Humor me." She leaned against a wall. Koenma sighed.

"I had an idea of making a greater spirit detective," and even harsher glare from Yusuke, but he continued, "One that would be indestructible and obey my every whim. So I had people collect samples of your DNA and spirit energy. I also added some DNA of your close friends…."

"Keiko!!?? You brought Keiko into this!?" Yusuke yelled, Koenma whimpered and covered his ears. It took five minutes for Yusuke to calm down and start listening again.

"Yes, I collected Keiko, Genki, and Yukina's DNA.." he received an extra cold glare from Hiei and his hand tightened on the handle of his katana.

"Look I'm sorry, o.k.!!??"

"Continue." Kurama said, voice dripping with agitation. Koenma sighed, and started again.

"Well, anyway. I took all the DNA and spirit power, fused it together and.."

"Created me." The demon girl finished with a scowl.

"Yes, and she wasn't what I wanted exactly so I was going to have her exterminated, except she had her own free will-which I hadn't realized- and went absolutely, positively berserk! She managed to get past our security and go into ningenkai. I don't know how well she did there but that's where you came in."

"Now hold on here! You're saying that she is created from us?"

"Correct, Yusuke."

"Then why the hell is she a girl!!??"

"Girls aren't suspected as spies." Koenma answered mater of factly.

"Man, that's, just, wrong…" Kuwabara said slowly, finally catching on.

"Well duh, you idiot! I'm basically your blood relative when I shouldn't be! Now, Koenma, or should I say `daddy'." She put her hands down on the desk, shaking it. Koenma gulped.

"What the hell do you plan to do to me now?"

"Destroy you what else?" The girl took a step back, worry on her face.

"You aren't serious! I'm a living creature, wouldn't that go against the rules?"

"No, you are a creation, an experiment if you will. Therefore you have no records and technically don't exist." Koenma stated calmly. Team Uremeshi watched in awe as the girl abruptly through a tantrum and punched a hole through the wall.

"So that's all I am, eh? A tool for your sick demented pleasure. An experiment. I am nothing but composed DNA and flesh." She pulled her hand from the wall and a tear rolled down her face. Immediately it crystallized into a tear gem, which she picked up and crushed in her hand; then she let the dust fall to the ground.

"You have no heart." She turned around to leave.

"Where are you going?" Botan asked.

"If I want to live I reckon I should leave before the munchkin throws a tantrum and sends his little pets after me." The girl put her hand on the door and was immediately shocked.

"Open the door Koenma."

"Why don't we sit down and talk about this?" Kurama offered.

"Yes, lets all have a nice little chat before I die."

"Now don't be like that, I'm sure Koenma is just bluffing." Yusuke started reasoning.

"You either let me go or I blow a hole through the god damned door."

"Sit, please?" Botan pleaded and used the evil puppy eyes. The girl groaned and put a hand over her eyes.

"That's the part I hate about me. Too damned soft." There was silent.

"Alright, lets negotiate you pompous toddler."

"Don't call me that!"

"Whatever you say munchkin." Koenma fumed with anger as the demon leaned against the wall.

"So, what do you want to talk about? How you're going to kill me?" they sighed.

"How about we start with a name?" Kurama suggested.

"Hn. Kaida. Stands for; Kinetic Artificial Individual Designed for Assassination. My middle name is Amaya; Artificial Mechanical Android Yearning for Assassination. Last name is Sanura; Synthetic Artificial Nullification and Repair Android." She paused and opened her eyes.

"Mr. Wise ass over there thought that up. All and all it's mostly Japanese, the last one is Egyptian and it's meaning is this; Little Dragon, Night Rain, and the stupid little pun, kitten."

"Man, she's got Kurama's brains…"

"Well duh, Kuwabara. I don't think Koenma wanted her like you!"

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?"

"Figure it out."

"Yes, my name was all a big humored thing little prince of the dead thought would be fun when he discovered the Internet." Koenma sighed

"It was cool…" he muttered.

"Yes and for your information Botan over there is my `mommy'. Oh yes I just have the parents of the year." Kaida muttered sarcastically.

"I say she inherited Yusuke and Hiei's attitude type.." Kurama chuckled.

"Bingo! And she inherited her swords from both Hiei and Kuwabara." Botan pronounced happily.

"Now, down to more important matters. Am I gonna have to kill you all or are you going to decide not to kill me." Koenma thought this over.

"I could give you a record…."

"Bingo! Thank you prince of the dead, you found your brain." Koenma sighed and fished some papers out of his folder and started to write something on them.

"How am I gonna explain this to my dad?" he asked, almost to himself.

"Say you and Botan screwed and be done with it." Receiving some startled stares, and Kaida pushed herself off from the wall.

"Well I'll be off, see ya later `dad'."

"Just where do you think your going? You still need your arm looked over." Kaida paused at the door and sweat dropped.

"No thanks, I'm just fine." She stared at Koenma who was looking at her strangely.

"What!?"

"I seem to remember something about kistunes…." Kurama broke out in cold sweats at Yusuke and Kuwabara stared at him.

"Got me interested." Yusuke grinned. Over in his corner Hiei smirked.

"Kistune no baka." He muttered.

"Yes, so do I lord Koenma. It says here in the book of funny demon facts that kistunes absolutely, positively, hate needles and any sharp objects with a vengeance." Botan smiled cheekily. It took Kuwabara and Yusuke a second to comprehend this before the burst into rounds of laughter and started jeering at poor Kurama. Kaida took this time to start slipping out the door.

"I don't think so Kaida. I have yet to repay you for making fun of me. Besides, you can't go yet. I have another deal for you."

"I'm listening."

"In exchange for your papers and me not killing you, I order you to join Yusuke's team as a fighter AND an under cover agent."

"What!" Kaida turned to face Koenma, red in the face.

"Forget it! That's so not fair! How can you expect me to work with the people my DNA comes from?"

"It's not that hard. Besides, you should get to know your brothers and sisters." Kai clenched her fist, and then grinned.

"Fine, munchkin. But in return I want to choose my clothes this time. You have horrible style."

"Fine whatever, just sign these papers and your all clear." Kaida carefully took the pen from Koenma and signed her name.

"Very good, George. Go file this!" the blue ogre which had been watching in fright scrambled to do his master's bidding. Kaida sighed.

"Now, if you excuse me I have things to do-"

"Doctor first, clean up later."

"Not going."

"You have to do what I say."

"What makes you say that shorty?"

"Cause I'm your creator!"

"No, you're just a gay ass prick who thought it'd be cool to clone his pets' DNA."

"Watch your mouth."

"Make me."

"Fine!" there was a small puff of smoke and Koenma reverted to his adult form. Botan immediately went heart eyes while Kaida rolled her eyes.

"Oh please, spare me." She fingered her tear gem thoughtfully for a moment, looking at Koenma.

"I wonder how your dad is gonna believe your lie…. Hmm.. I wonder what punishment he'll take."

"He.. he doesn't have to know!"

"Give me a sack of gold pieces and I wont tell a soul."

"What?!"

"Look, if I'm gonna live on Ningenkai I'm gonna need money. So fork it over or I'm telling your father." Yusuke stared at Koenma glared at handed over a sack of gold pieces.

"Damn.. she's good…"

"Cunning as a fox I'm afraid." Botan said, sighing.

"Now, I won't have to play this fox whistle if you go willingly go and get your arm sewed shut."

"You'd hurt Kurama too."

"He doesn't have his fox ears up." Kaida growled under her breath.

`Munchkin! You are SO pushing it." Koenma smiled and put the whistle to his lips.

"I'm going! I'm going! Jeez…. Do you treat your pets that way?" It occurred to Kuwabara that he was being called a pet.

"Hey!" but the door slammed shut and Koenma smiled to himself.

"I bluffed, this is a fake." Kurama chuckled to himself while Yusuke started cracking up.

"Hn." Was all that came from Hiei as he ran off to vent out his pent up anger on some demons?

Suddenly, the door opened up again and Kaida peered through.

"I bluffed too, daddy dearest." She grinned cheekily and disappeared again. Koenma could only fum in anger.

"Yusuke!"

"What?"

"If you don't keep an eye on her…"

"I know, I know. I'll be out of a job, bla, bla!" Yusuke ripped off his jacket; since it just occurred to him it had been bloodied.

"Wash this for me." He said, opening the door and throwing it at Koenma, who caught it with disgust.

"Come on Kuwabara, I'm sure your family is worried about ya too!" Kuwabara accompanied his friend out the door.

"I'm afraid I must be going too, my mother will be worried." Kurama started walking out the door, but turned.

"If you have any such ideas in the future, don't carry them out without our consent." And then he too left. Botan and Koenma sighed.

"I have a feeling this is your biggest mistake ever."

"I agree." Koenma reverted to his `toddler' form and gave a little groan as he continued to work on paperwork.
