Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ In the Dark of the Night ❯ Chapter 1 ( Chapter 2 )

AN= This may sound choppy but the present activity is not the main focus of the story, the journal is the main focus in the first part, as they discover the true power of ghosts and find out what sort of childhood Kazuma Kuwabara really had. They will start to read the journal from the beginning, which was started by his mother, then there are entries by his father, once Kazu is old enough to write he will be making his own entries.

 

This is not as easy as it sounds. I will in effect be writing in four perspectives ; Mother, father, Kazuma as a child and then the teen Kazuma. I picture his mother as using 'proper speech' heh, The father is more relaxed in speech. I will be jumping from journal entry to entry, there's no way I'll write over 400 entries

!_! But I can go from 12 to 43 etc.

 

march, '05= Edited and some discrepancies fixed such as= 'Hiei walked into Urameshi's apartment' since later on they are at the shrine, that had to be changed.

 

 

 

Chapter One

 

 

Yusuke looked over at Kurama who was holding on to the journals. "You did find Hiei in the Makai, right?"

 

"Actually no." Kurama ignored Yusuke's sputtering to finish his explanation. "Hiei was already in Ningenkai and he found me. It seems that he had some imps watching over Yukina. The imps failed to report back to him so he sent another to see what was wrong."

 

"I came as soon as my imp returned with the information that Kuwabara's house was destroyed." Hiei glowered as he entered Genkai's shrine. "I went to go look at the house myself. My Jagan eye could find no trace of Yukina, or the Kuwabara siblings."

 

"KURAMA!" Botan yelled as she ran into the room. "We found the first one!" Catching her breath Botan told them that the agent that was sent into England undercover had found the first journal at the house where Kuwabara was born. "Koenma-sama is using his resources in Reikai to search for clues. It's not as easy as it wold have been three years ago before King Enma disrupted Koenma's support system in Reikai."

 

"Hold on, Kurama if you didn't have that one how did you know that there were three of them?" Yusuke listened as Kurama stated that the third journal was titled as Volume Three. "Of course."

 

"Shut up, all of you and lets see how the first journal begins." All witty comments died as Genkai started to read the very first entry.

 

 

 

Entry 1

 

I am Kuwabara Amanda. I am starting this journal to record the supernatural events that seemed to have increased during my latest

pregnancy. I hope to find a clue as to why this is happening.

 

Perhaps I should start at the beginning. My mother was the great-granddaughter of Virginia Foxx. My father was the grandson of

Dr. David Holmes. Therefor I am descended from two lines of famous western spiritualists. My husband is the head of an ancient line of

Japanese spiritualists. All four of of our daughters are showing promises of psychic powers. I am only six months along in my latest pregnancy

and the entire family is swearing that my unborn son (Yes! It's a boy this time!) is already showing signs of a strong psychic ability.

 

That is where the trouble begins. I am currently sitting in the rose garden of my father's manor in Essex, England. There is no wind,

the air is still yet the garden gate is swinging back and forth. As I write these words there are small foot prints appearing in the dirt not but

ten feet from me.

 

Pardon me, I took about fifteen minutes to give my attention to the ghost. It is Abigail, a child that died in a fire in 1209 when she

was only seven. It is rare for Abigail to approach someone, even if they are psychic.

 

So far, she is one of the gentler ghosts of this old home. Just last night there was another ghost ball that was floating about. At first we

thought it was harmless like the others that have followed me about. However this one's energies were more - vibrant, as if it was a higher

energy-wave. It is difficult to put such psychic sensations into words. Spoken language is so limited when it comes to expressing psychic phenomena,

that is why I prefer to speak to my dearest husband and children with my telepathy, it conveys so much that words cannot.

 

I digress,The newest ghost ball was more energetic and larger than the prior ones, it was also a dark read hue--

 

 

 

"Oh no!" Botan cry interrupted the spell of silence that had fallen within the room. "That's not good at all!"

 

"Why don't you shut up so we can hear what happened!" Hiei glared at the guide. As much as he hated to admit it, this was something he wanted to hear. The Jagan may allow him to control minor ghosts, but he only got the Jagan less than eight years ago. He still has little experience with ghosts, and none with the greater powers of the incorporeal.

 

"You don't understand, Hiei! A ghost ball meeting that description is not good, one that evil shouldn't be free in the Ningenkai in the first place! Spirit world takes care of those threats, those type of spirits are seen as a threat greater than many of the loose demons in Ningenkai." Botan fretted over this fact, what she didn't get a chance to say is that a ghost ball of that magnitude is so rare that 500 years may pass before a dying soul transforms into it.

 

"Okay dimwits, I'm reading again. If you talk, I'll physically toss you out!" No one wanted to test Genkai's threat.

 

 

 

The newest ghost ball was more energetic and larger than the prior ones, it was also a dark red hue. As I descended the stairs it floated

up to the ceiling. I had reached the foyer when I heard the tinkling of the crystal chandelier. I heard one of the benevolent ghosts cry out in warning

and an unseen force knocked me to the side and out of the way of the falling chandelier. If the spirit didn't help me to get out of the way, I would

be under the that ten foot tall wreck and crystal shards would have pierced my flesh!

 

That has not been the only attempt to harm me. A week ago I awoke to stinging sensations on my stomach. When I removed my nightgown,

I had found claw marks. I am beginning to suspect that I am not the true target. I fear that these attacks are actually centering on my unborn child.

I am merely 'in the way', sort to speak.

Author's Note= As I often do, I use the manga more so than the anime. In both anime & manga Yukina comes to stay in the Ningenkai while the three demon boys go to the Makai. In the anime she stays at Genkai's temple but in the Manga Yukina lives with the Kuwabaras! So in my story Yukina was living at the Kuwabara residence.

 

Before anyone flames me about Hiei= It's stated that Hiei got the Jagan in order to find his sister, Yukina was a prisoner of Tarukane's for 5 yrs. = the 3 yrs. in the Makai =8 yrs. If you don't like my math TOO BAD it MY fic: ;p

In the graphic novel YYH #3 pg.120 it says this about the Evil Eye (aka Jagan Eye) =exerts control over lesser demons, ghosts, and humans at a glance.
