Scene 37 ------------------------------------------- Gandera

* When Kandero enters his young Lord's councilroom he finds Shura pacing anxiously.


Kandero- Lord Shura, you summoned me?


* Shura glances at the Mage as he continues pacing.


Shura- Things are not good.. Not good..

Kandero- What's troubling you now, M'Lord?


* The boy turns to motion to a before-unnoticed, fairy-sized demon.


Shura- That wench Durga has killed the beast Mahisasura!


* Shura motions toward the two small blabkened orbs sitting on a sidetable.


Shura- Tickoso and Hermanei are both dead..


* Kandero moves to look closer at the two dark orbs that were their connection to the two parasite demons that resided on Lazurama and Hiei.


Kandero- Hermanei is dead..


* After a moment, Kandero turns to try to put his young, agitated Lord at ease.


Kandero- But this could be great news..!


* Shura turns to glare up at the over-confident Mage.


Shura- Great?! How can..?!

Kandero- Think, sire.. Did we not release that pathetic koorime mutt to take out the Youko Kurama?

Shura- Yes..

Kandero- Well, then, if his parasite is dead.. Then it must mean that the koorime is dead.. It's not unusual for parasite demons to be killed with their host, you know.


* Shura looks up at the tiny demon spy hovering beside him. The small demon raises his hands in a shrug.


Imp- This is true. Such is the life of a parasite, M'Lord.


* Shura looks back up at Kandero.


Shura- And Tickoso? - What if the mutt found Lazurama instead?

Kandero- Lord Shura, when I set Hermanei into Hiei I ordered him to produce hate in the koorime for anything that smells of roses.. I did do my research on the Youko Kurama, you know.. Lazurama may look like his wretched half brother, but he certainly doesn't smell like roses.. Perhaps he was wounded during his last mission..


* Shura shakes his head vigorously and moves away grabbing fistfuls of his own hair.


Shura- Too many variables! Too many, too many..


* Having seen the boy take these kinds of temper tantrums before Kandero sighs, rolls his eyes, and looks at the imp. The tiny demon again shrugs, then crosses his arms. They both stay put, deciding to wait for the little, unbalanced Lord to exhaust his anger. Finally, after only blasting out one of the walls of the room, Shura stands and catches his breath. When he is calm once more he turns to go back over to his associates.


Shura- Sagoki, go to the castle.. Find out if Enki and his b---- have been dealt with.. Go!

Sagoki- Hai, M'Lord!


* When Sagoki disappears out the opened wall Shura looks back up at Kandero.


Shura- We still have that godling brat.. Correct?

Kandero- Yes, Sire.

Shura- Great.. So that Urameshi will still be drawn here.. I'll send Sagoki to give him the message once we find out what's going on at the castle..


* In light of Shura's recent tantrum, Kandeero decides not to tell him of Banashima's disappearance. The Mage bows respectfully.


Kandero- Your plans will all come together. I am sure of it.. Now, if I may be excused..?

Shura- Yes, be gone from me.


* Shura waves a hand casually, dismissing the wizard, as he turns away mumbling about the pains of having to get another wall repaired. Kandero shakes his head slightly as he turns to leave. He almost reaches the door.


Shura- Kandero, wait!


* Kandero turns back.


Kandero- M'Lord?


* Shura gets a devilish grin and his ears wiggle excitedly as he looks up at the wizard.


Shura- I don't just want to lure that Mazoku here.. I want him to come full force and angry..


* Kandero's eyes widen.


Kandero- You think it wise to anger the Mazoku beyond reason?

Shura- When I destroy that freak I want him at his strongest.. This will show all of Demon World my total power.. Then nobody will dare to oppose me!

Kandero- And just how do you propose to..?

Shura- I'm feeling the need to be entertained.. Why don't we have a little fun with our royal prisoner?


* Kandero stares down at the boy incredulously. He definately hadn't seen this coming.


Shura- Yes.. It will greatly pleasure me to see the mighty Koenma do some suffering..


* Shura looks up at Kandero.


Shura- Go prepare my troops to have some.. prisoner torturing games.


* Kandero just blinks at Shura until the boy scowls and shoos him out with his hands.


Shura- Go!


* The Mage hesitantly nods then turns and leaves.
