Chapter 1- Defend from Demon

 

 

It was raining harshly now. Few souls went out in the harsh weather. It was an ungodly hour anyways. The few that were out were anything but having a midnight stroll.

 

“GET BACK HERE YOU DIRTY BLOODED WENCH!” roared a rouge demon as he and 2 other demons ran after a small figure ahead of them.

 

“YOU SHOULD KNOW BY NOW THAT YOU'RE NOT FIT TO LIVE AS YOU ARE! THNK OF THIS AS A HELPING HAND TO SPARE YOU!” another one shouted sarcastically.

 

The figure didn't slow down. Suddenly, the 3 demons lost sight of it when it rounded a corner and disappeared in the thick rainfall. The 3 demons smirked at one another, knowing their pray had no where to run now. It lead them to a dead end. With out a word, they started to rummage through the garbage and trash around the dead end ally way.

 

A sneeze made them all look at the dumpster rolled over on its side at the end of the ally. Knowing it was probably the wench; they slowly stalked it, sensing the fear from their prey increase.

 

“Pl-please,” a small feminine voice pleaded, “I-I cant hold it back much-much longer,” her voice sounded a little stained, but they took it the wrong way as just her terror trying to break free.

 

“Then let go of your fear, bitch, you should know how much demons love the taste of fear just before the kill” snickered the last demon as he smacked his lips salivating. Now that they knew it was indeed female, it guaranteed her blood and flesh tasting sweet and juicy.

 

“No….you don't under-,” she said no more and they heard her yelp as if in pain, then a lower voice of an amused male was heard.

 

“So gentlemen,” it chuckled, “out for a midnight snack on a rainy night? Or did you just follow me to piss me off!” now it hissed.

 

The demons stopped suddenly confused at the new voice. Were there two of them?

 

“Who are you and where's the girl?” the leader of the trio demanded.

 

The voice of the male chuckled again, “the girl and I are one of the same my friend.” Then they saw the body of the female they persuited for the last few nights stand up and turn to them slowly with her bangs hiding her eyes, “Now, I'll ask you nimrods again, are you out walking about, or are you honestly trying to piss me off?”

 

“It wouldn't matter if we told you or not, pal, you're gonna die right here, right now!” one of the follower demons snarled as he charged.

 

The hanyou didn't move until the last second, then she side stepped the demon as he made a harsh jab at her and grabbed his arm in an iron vice grip. It was then that the demon looked up and nearly passed out when his black eyes met those rare, angry blazed orange eyes as they regarded him very annoyed at the moment.

 

“If this is the path you wish, then I'll show you why my counter part was so forbidding about me.” He said coldly. Then, blue fire swirled around the demon and scorched him unforgiving slow and painfully. The demon's agonized howls in pain echoed for miles as he struggled to get away until his body became nothing but fresh ash. The hanyou shook off its hand and let the rain soak it clean again, then it turned its glowing orange eyes to the other 2.

 

“Hanyou I may be for now, but mark my words,” his voice was still calm, but it had an edge to it that held more deadly of a promise then a rattlesnakes fangs, “If you so much as glace at this body the wrong way, I wont hesitate to hunt you down and torture you with your own testacies!” he warned. It wouldn't be pleasant either.

 

Not another word was needed. The other 2 demons hastily scampered off from the ally, leaving the hanyou alone. He sighed, “there now, little hanyou, they're gone, so stop pestering me to let you in control again! I'm giving up right now!” he hissed to the unseen person as his orange eyes slowly returned to the deep aqua again. The girl gasped for breath, having taken a lot out of her just trying to regain power over her own body from her little `parasite' as she loved to infer to him as.

 

“Ryu! What was that about! You didn't have to take over like that and kill one of them, I was doing fine on my own!” she yelled aloud, not really expecting a response. When they were awake, it was rare for them to be able to communicate much to one another. Another side effect to the curse.

 

/Its not as though you'd have won against them. You were too busy cowering under that dumpster to do much. / Ryu surprisingly mumbled back.

 

Before she could hiss back, a small mewl came form inside one of the metallic trash cans, “Kyo?” she whispered hopefully as she walked over and opened the lid to find the zhorse in there with his big orange chibbi eyes looking up for her.

 

“Kyou!!” he mewled as he launched up into her arms, snuggling to her chest for warmth.

 

She smiled, “I missed you too, Kyo, but I had to take care of those guys back there. I didn't want to get you hurt.” She explained. The small zhorse chibbi animal nodded and mewled and yipped his apologies.

 

She tucked him under her drench coat to keep him warm and dry, “come on, lets get out of this rain.”

“Yuusuke, you're missing the entire point I summoned you here.” Koenma sighed as he flopped back into his office chair, “Its not that I want you to kill it, I want you to find the hanyou and watch it for anything suspicious. If anything happens, capture and bring it here to Makai.”

 

“No killing?” Yuusuke seemed to deflate, not a week after the tournament and he gets stuck with a lame job as to baby-sit some half demon that was wandering the human world with out a leash.

 

“For the last time, No KILLING, Yuusuke,” repeated the young wolf demoness known as Yumi who sat on the corner of Koenma's desk. She was also assigned to the Hanyou, and to check out what other demons might have crossed the barrier with the detectives, “it wont be so bad. You'll have you're team to split the job up, and when they cant, I'll be there to step in.”

 

“That's what I'm afraid of as well,” Yusuke, grumbled, “you NEVER obey orders! If I said OBSERVE it, you'd be best friends with the hanyou bastard before sundown!”

 

“The best people we know are our family and friends.” She excused with a shrug.

 

“It wouldn't really matter what you said Yusuke, you know by now she hardly listens to any orders from us unless Hiei really tries to convince her.” Kurama said nonchalantly.

 

Hiei sent him a glare while Yumi bristled, “I. DO. NOT!” she denied.

 

“Calm down and sit, Yumi, the whole spirit world doesn't need to be included on this.” Hiei said with a slight command in it.

 

As if she were a robot, Yumi sat back on the desk again and her black wolf ears flopped down in a pout, as she kept quiet for now. Kurama just sent her a knowing smile as she huffed and turned away.

 

“You sure proved him wrong,” Kuwabara said dryly.

 

“Shut up Kazuma.” Yumi barked, making him jump.

 

“Right…” Koenma cleared his throat to speak up again, “well, you have you're assignment; watch over the Hanyou and see why she's in Human world. With that said, any questions?”

 

“So no killing? No kicking evil demon ass?” Yusuke asked as if he were a mournful puppy.

 

“Sigh, if you insist, when Yumi makes her rounds, you may accompany her.” Koenma sighed.

 

“WHAT!? BUT KOENMA!-,” Yumi was cut off by her adoptive parent.

 

“Go Yumi, and behave while in the human world. I do not want another episode like the Dark Tournament! You deliberately disobeyed me going there and you even PARTICIPATED in it with out my O-K!”

“Oh hush, diaper king. And if I hadn't eliminated some of the competition, these boys would have died of exhaustion before they went up against Toguro in the last round.” She brushed him off as she slid off the desk and walked pass the boys to the door, “If I find anything, Botan'll tell you.”

It was broad daylight again. The Hanyou emerged form her hiding spot form the rain under the canopy of the top of the playground's slide. Her little companion safely tucked in her side school bag, sleeping like a rock. His small snores made her giggle as she walked on down the street to find something to eat…..too bad she wouldn't be able to pay this time. She winced at the slight injury she acquired form last night when she ran away from those demons.

 

/you're losing your touch, hanyou. / Ryu said with mockery /we both know you could take out those nimrods with the kryptonite swords, but no, you decided to run away like a coward. /

 

“Hey! Its not my fault that you went 17 years residing in me with out telling me I could control the stupid swords until just 4 weeks ago in MAKAI! I barely know how to kill with one and besides that there were three of them. So quit your whining! You're just mad because I had enough restraint to only let you kill one of them instead of slaughtering all three.” She countered out loud.

 

/I still don't see why you insist on not killing at all cost even demons. They wouldn't and won't show you the same mercy. /

 

“If that's what you think I don't kill so much for, then you're an idiot.” She said dryly as she entered the crowded market place.

 

098098098098098098098098098098098098098098098098

 

 

Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, and Keiko walked down their usual way to school the next morning through the market place. Or so it was called. There were a lot of stall shops of food lined down the sidewalks.

 

Hiei and Yumi were already rounding the territory to search and destroy demons, as well as keeping an eye out for the hanyou.

 

“Do you think that Hanyou would actually hurt some one?” Keiko asked. As promised a while back, Yusuke had told her about the mission they were working on when they got home last night.

 

“All the criminal reports don't relate to a hanyou. So, so far so good.” Kurama answered her with a shrug.

 

“Don't half demons tend to keep to themselves anyway?” Kuwabara asked, recalling the way Yumi described how the half demon might react to society if they spotted something that might be it. Trouble thing was, a hanyou was an expert at hiding, and to them it sometimes was the difference between life or death. All though the racism against such a combination wasn't as bad as before, most demons still felt bitter at the very mention of a halfling.

 

“Yes. They'll do anything to stay away from the lime light.” Kurama agreed.

 

“HEY! GET BACK HERE, THIEF! THAT'S NOT FREE!” a man called out from behind the group. They turned to look just as a girl with jet-black hair and red tips crashed through them, clutching a loaf of bread to her chest. She apologized over her shoulder to them and continued to dodge the man and the other few people who joined him to catch her. Her arm sleeve brushed Kuwabara's hand and he stiffened as if he felt a jolt of electricity shoot through him…..which is exactly what he felt. The shopkeeper also barged through them to pursue her.

 

“HEY! WHERE DO YOU THINKYOU'RE GOING BITCH!?” he called after her.

 

After watching the man chase the teen around the corner, the others turned to look back at Kuwabara who was still frozen.

 

“Yo, Kuwabara!” Yusuke snapped his fingers in front of him to snap him out of it, “wake up man, you're acting as if she electrocuted you.”

 

“Sh-she did!” Kuwabara suddenly said. Kurama and Yusuke started at that, “but not only that, the second I felt the shock, I felt 3 ki's in her aura; human, demon, and a strong mixed spirit energy that was way off balance, like it wasn't suppose to be there.” He said shocked.

 

“Did you just say human AND demon!?” Yusuke jumped on that info he just said. Kuwabara shook his head yes, still slightly shocked from the electricity, “Keiko! I'm sorry, but you'll have to go to school solo for now, if that's the Hanyou, we need to see what's up!” Yusuke said as he took off to run after direction the girl left, Kurama and Kuwabara not far behind. Keiko didn't even have time to protest before she was suddenly alone. She then glared at the boys' backs and huffed.

 

“Yusuke, you JERK! I'm really gonna hit you hard next time I see you today.” She mumbled as she stomped the rest of the way to school.

 

098098098098098098098098098098098098098098098098098

 

 

 

“HEY! U THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO STOP THEIF!” the man said out of breath as he slowed down out of breath panting as he fell to his knees gasping for air. She didn't hear him, she was dead set on escaping with her breakfast, “insolent little-huh” he looked up when 3 young men ran pass him. The black haired one called over his shoulder.

 

“WE'LL TAKE IT FROM HERE, OL'MAN!”

 

Like he could care now. Let her have it. It was only a small loaf of old bread. Not worth losing his breath over like this.

 

;;;;;

 

;;;;

 

She looked over her shoulder and saw to her horror that the old man was gone and now 3 younger, faster men were catching up quickly. Her senses told her of their spiritual energy level and how high each was. That only scared her more. All three were exceptionally high. If she wanted to out run them, she'd have to use Kyo's speed.

 

She opened the flap and sweat dropped pitifully when she found him still asleep.

 

“Stupid striped pony!! How can you sleep at a time like this!!?” she yelled at him as she closed it again and just pushed her self faster, but she was slowing down with her fatigue of no food since yesterday and she knew it. Thinking fast, she rounded a sharp corner and leapt up on a fire escape to throw them off her trail, holding her breath to see if it worked.

 

The three of them rushed pass her, then stopped, confused at not seeing her in the dead end.

 

“Where the hell-,” the black haired one hissed.

 

“Up there!” the dark red head said, pointing at her.

 

She yelped when they took off, closer than before as she dashed up the flight of steps on the fire escape, only one fight ahead of them. She leapt up to the roof and ran to the other side, looking over her shoulder, then slamming to stop when she saw the drop off. No rooftop was close enough for her escape; she froze like a hunted rabbit when she turned around to see the three of them now on the roof as well. Now she panicked.

 

So she did the only thing she could think of, she fell to her knees and set the bread in front of her.

 

“I'M SORRY! I THOUGHT IT WOULDN'T MATTER MUCH IF THE BREAD WAS ALREADY OLD, AND I'LL PAY HIM BACK SOON AS I GET THE MONEY! I SWEAR I WILL! PLEASE DON'T PUNISH ME!!” she begged.

 

“What is she talking about?” Kuwabara whispered to Yusuke who shrugged.

 

“How should I know? The guy already gave up on the bread.”

 

“Is it true that you're a hanyou?” Kurama asked, as his companions got distracted.

 

The girl froze, and then said, “why-why?” if she sounded afraid before, she was terrified now. She barely kept form shaking.

 

“Just answer us.” Yusuke evaded. What was he suppose to say? Because we're suppose to observe you, so go on and keep acting like you usually would even if you're killing humans so we know if we're suppose to let you go or kill you? No way in hell.

 

She flinched, “ye-yes…..I am Hanyou. I'm Desota Ishtar, the cursed fox hanyou,” she introduced herself quietly. If she refused even that much information on her, she knew from experience that what ever these boys wanted would be worse when they found out she lied.

 

Yoko seemed to rouse at that name and title.

 

/Ishtar?/

 

`You know her?'

 

/not HER but that name is nagging at me like I should know it. /

 

“Why are you shivering? Are you cold?” Kuwabara took a hesitant step toward the hanyou, acting as he would a cornered animal, which was what she was. Hanyou's instincts kicked in rather late in times of need, so although she seemed frightened now, if he made a threatening move, her demonic blood would take over to protect her.

 

“I-I'm not cold. Just please, stop staring at me and punish so that I can eat my breakfast.” She was serious! Kuwabara was taken back as much as Yusuke and Kurama were! Even Yoko was surprised to hear her ask for a beating.

 

“You misunderstand, Desota, we're not here to harm you.” Kurama said calmly, knowing that any other tone of voice would scare her.

 

She looked up at them confused, “then…..then what is it that you want form me?” she asked.

 

Suddenly her bag moved and she made to grab it, but the little zhorse plopped out and trotted over to the bread, only glancing at the three boys curiously before snatching the bread off the ground and mewling playfully as if to say, `it's MINE now!', then he cantered back to Desota and nudged it to her lap.

 

“Wha-whats that??” Yusuke pointed as if Kyo was a rat.

 

“Its just my…..my pet, Kyo. He's a size shifter.” She was slightly more at ease now. Kyo had an ability to know who was a threat and who was a friend by sensing their heart with only a glace. If he felt at ease, she could too.

 

“Size shifter?” Kurama said curiously as he felt her aura relax enough to approach safely.

 

As if to answer him, Kyo bursted into an angry orange flame and when it subsided, he was a tall, proud stallion version of his smaller self with more of an elegant look rather than his chibbi smaller form. He snorted and sniffed at Kurama's offered hand curiously looking for a treat. When he found none, he moaned and pulled away in favor for checking Desota for treats.

 

“See? But either way, he's still a big baby.” Desota giggled when the zhorse nibbled at her neck for that comment. It warmed Kurama's heart some how to hear that noise from her and how close the 2 of them seemed. She defiantly wasn't here to kill anyone.

 

“I'm guessing you're not here to kill any humans. So why are you in human world?” Yusuke asked. Kurama wanted to hit him for saying it so bluntly.

 

Desota's eyes widened until they nearly took up her whole face, “is that why you guy's were chasing me? You thought I killed some humans?”

 

None of them looked her in the eyes and started to fidget, embarrassed now. She laughed at them.

 

“Usually I'm the one dodging death, not trying to give it out.” She giggled, “It's odd to hear any other assumption.”

 

“So then, why are you here?” Kurama asked.

 

Desota's laughter died down and she looked away almost ashamed, “'Cause I'm a coward. I thought if I came to the human world, I could live a life with out anyone criticizing my blood, but the barrier is weakening a bit. So yeah….now I just hide.” She admitted.

 

“Don't you have a safe place to go to? A home? What about family?” Yusuke asked.

 

Her eyes hardened, “they were murdered in cold blood when the demons found out about my birth from a fox demon and human who fell in love.” She said, “since I had Kyo with me, he escaped from them before they could kill use too, but no human or demon are my family anymore.”

 

“You're alone with a race that hunts you for sport always on the prowl?” Kuwabara said sympathetically.

 

“Man and I thought cops were bad.” Yusuke rubbed the back of his neck.

 

“Do you need a place to stay for a while?” Kurama asked.

 

/woo, look at you, Kurama. Hardly know the girl and already you want her to move in. I SO PROUD!/ Yoko almost squealed.

 

`Shut up!'

 

 

“A-a place to stay?” she asked surprised. She looked up with those big hopeful aqua eyes at Kurama to see if it was a joke. It made his stomach knot over and over. It was just so cute!

 

/fall any faster, Kurama, and we're bound to get a speeding ticket. \ Yoko joked.

 

`I thought I told you to shut up! And I'm not the one that keeps looking over her torn shirt!'

 

/a demon can look cant he?/ Yoko defended.

 

“Only if you're sure I'm not a burden to you.” Desota conditioned, “I'll get a job and soon as I'm able, I'll move out. Deal?” she held out a hand to shake on it. Kurama did the same.

 

“Deal” he said as they shook. Yoko sent a small spark of his Youkai threw their hand to hers, she didn't flinch at the almost testing gesture, instead, she sent back her own which had an electrifying zap to it that made Yoko curious.

 

/she's already playing with us! /

 

`Well she is kitsune.'

 

/but still, now that I know, I want to do THAT more often. It's been a while since some one actually played back. / Yoko was getting excited. This new female was starting to look more appealing by the minute!

 

Kurama ignored him for what it was worth and helped her stand up, only to have her wince after following him a few steps.

 

“What's wrong?” Yusuke asked. Now that they knew she wasn't a killer, he didn't want her hurt or to get her hurt, like he would treat Botan.

 

She grimaced and tried to shake it off, “stomach pains. I haven't eaten yet I guess.” She excused.

 

Kyo hissed at her and started jabbering at her furiously until she closed his mouth with her hand and the zhorse glared his bright orange eyes at her. It almost seemed as it he were scolding her about something, or at least tattle taleing like a little brother. Her aqua orbs glared at him.

 

/she's a very bad liar…./ Yoko observed /even her aura belies it. She's in pain somewhere but since she's still hiding her scent I cant tell if it's a flesh wound or not./

 

“He doesn't seem to think so.” Kurama pointed out as Kyo tried to get his muzzle out of her grasp to start his assault again. `If only her clothes weren't already red.'

 

/maybe they weren't before. It could be blood as well. / The thought sent an unknown pang to both Yoko and Kurama.

 

“Who him? He just wants another treat.” Desota covered up again with a sweat drop. Kyo jolted his head up and forced her arm to go with him. Her left side of her body strained and her wound from last night screamed at her in hot pain when it stretched. She bit her lip and flinched away, “you tattle tale!” she hissed. She could hear Ryu's mocking laughter insider her mind. He was oddly not interfering at all lately.

 

“She has a flesh wound on her left hip.” Came another voice from behind Desota. She looked over her shoulder suddenly frightened when she sensed youkai and darted to the closest thing; Kurama.

 

“Yumi?” Kuwabara blinked, then jabbed a finger at her, “HEY! ARENT YOU SUPOSE TO BE PATROLING THE BARRIER!? AND HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT!”

 

Yumi gave him a dry look, “Hiei used his Jagan to find the ones we didn't kill and ended up finding a distrust hanyou. You know I'm able to sense wounds no matter how much anyone tries to hide them, I am a wolf you know.” She almost sounded insulted that he'd forget one of her main abilities.

 

Hiei as usual was standing melancholy at her side with a bored look on his face, “the demons weren't even half the trouble. A human could take them out.”

 

“HEY!” Yuusuke and Kuwabara both snapped.

 

Kyo turned around to the new comers curiously. He tentively walked up to them sniffing at them to see if they had any treats either. When he noticed the way Hiei's hair spiked up, he nibbled on it to see if it tasted good. Hiei's sword was drawn before anyone could blink eye and he slashed at the stupid animal.

 

“HIEI!” Yumi yelped, but to everyone's surprise, he missed. The zhorse had ducked in time to miss the blades single strike.

 

Kyo just glared at the blade, not Hiei, then he when back to nuzzling Hiei's hair, enjoying the way the spikes felt on his muzzle.

 

“What the hell is this thing doing?” Hiei almost snarled as he swung his kitana again, only to get the same results.

 

Everyone sweat dropped when it just turned out to be a one sided duel when Hiei ended up just slashing nonstop at the zhorse. Kyo, thinking this was all a game, kept dodging and when he had chance, he licked Hiei's cheek like a dog.

 

“I guess Kyo felt his heart was a little too cold around the goodness it has in it.” Desota assumed.

 

“His heart??” Yousuke's bros knotted in confusion.

 

Desota glanced at him and nodded before watching amused at her pet and the fire demon go at it again, “I don't even know all his powers, but one of them is that he's able to sense what's inside a persons heart and spirit. Not necessarily mind read them, but he can see if a person is truly evil of good. Even if they are a threat or not.” She smiled back at all of them now, “ that's why I started to calm down when he came out in front of all you. If he could relax with you so close, then so can I.”

 

“Is he a…..a good demon or something??” Kuwabara asked amazed at the animals' speed. Hiei couldn't even land one blow on it!

 

/Is he trying to sound stupid? / Yoko hissed /there's no youkai on it! It's a heavenly being! That's why it has all these unexplained powers. It must be here to hold off a curse. /

 

`What curse?'

 

/…../

 

`You don't know??”

 

/I'm a demon, not a god!!…..except in bed./

 

`You're hopeless.'

 

“No he's a Heaven spirit.” Desota said, “Although he's often confused with demons. So don't feel bad for assuming it.”

 

Yumi nodded then stiffened, “I sense other hunters. They're probably after her. Kurama, if you're going to take her, get her out of here now! Hiei and I'll take on these Dumbnutts.” She said.

 

“You're going NO WHERE kicking demon ass with out ME!” Yuusuke hollered after her when she turned to fend off the demons.

 

“If you're coming then haul some ass and hurry up!” Yumi snorted.

 

“Don't have to tell me twice!” and with that, there went Yumi, Hiei, and Yuusuke.

 

Desota blinked, “you're human friend is very eager for a fight isn't he?”

 

“You could say he grew up like that.” Kurama smiled, “lets get you out of the open and treat that wound.”

 

Kuwabara nodded, “yeah! I can feel the youkai closing in even with those 3 on'em! There's others after her as well……GOD DAMN IT! I THOUGHT THEY WERENT SUPOSE TO BE ABLE TO GET HERE LIKE THAT!”

 

“They're not.” Kurama glanced back at him then looked up in surprise when Desota stood up, “do you want help?”

 

 

“I'm grateful for you concern, but Kyo can carry me. He'll follow where ever you go.” She said tearing off one of her sleeves and stuffed it between her pants line and her hip to help keep pressure on the reopened wound.

 

 

/stubborn girl….she knows it would be faster for us to carry her. The zhorse'll have to slow down to follow us through the city out of sight. / Yoko snorted.

 

“Suit yourself.” Kurama said, shushing Yoko at the same time.

 

“Hey, human, you seem tired too from the run we had earlier, need a ride?” Desota offered as Kyo walked toward Kuwabara.

 

“Uh, sure yeah I guess.” Kuwabara stuttered as she helped him on behind her on the zhorses back. Compared to his large frame, Desota was barely visible when he reached around her to grasp the long silvery mane to hold him in place.

 

/he better just be doing that to stay on! / Yoko growled.

 

`Jealous already?' Kurama had to stop the urge of rolling his eyes outwardly.
