Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Hanyou ❯ Chapter 10- chapter black assault ( Chapter 10 )

 

A/N- Well I'm absolutely bored to tears and I'm guessing its time for another few chapters of this story. It's so far behind fanfiction.net I feel ashamed about it (hangs head in shame)

 

 

Lol

 

Also, thank you XShootingStarX, I realize that my story is a bit base to base with the original plot, but I wrote this when I was a bit younger and the sequel calls for a back up like this. It's just part of my style to want to add twists to anime plots I love either way (grins wickedly) you still like it don't you?

 

To every one else, you know the drill (I only say it every chapter. Lol) Read and review please ^_^

 

Kyo: Kay kyo yo shinata hige Kyoma!! (Christina-chan doesn't own so please no sue for me!!)

 

 

 

Chapter 10- chapter black assault

 

Light started to filter in the apartment, announcing that the storm had passed and made way for morning and a beautiful new start to a new day. Kurama had returned just before dawn and said nothing of where he went or why, and no one asked. They all had awoken earlier this morning to help tend to the still nameless man and Kuwabara. All except Desota- she had stayed up all night watching over her patients. Her Aqua eyes were weary and tiered with the lack of sleep.

 

“You pull an all nighter last night, Dessy?” Yusuke sounded surprised as can be in his half asleep voice.

 

Desota jerked as if she came out of a trance, “huh? Oh, yes. I did, Yusuke.”

 

“Damn, you're sure persistent.” He mumbled as he sat in a backwards chair near her and watched over the boy with her. Glancing every now and then at the snoring Kuwabara in the corner, “has he been talking all night?”

 

Desota sighed exasperated, “yes. From what I picked up- he said something about; Yukina, chicken wings, rabid toilets, and ….oh Hiei in a tutu.”

 

“That's something I never want to hear again.” Yusuke shuddered at the thought of the small fire demon doing such a thing.

 

“It is quite revolting.” Kurama agreed, letting his presence be known.

 

Desota twisted around to look at him in the door way and smiled the best she could when she was as tiered as she was, “there you are Kurama, I was wandering where you went off to.” She greeted as he approached them. His hands were stuffed in the pockets of his school uniform he wore.

 

“How are they?” he asked looking over the two boys before letting his gaze rest on Desota.

 

“Bro'll be fine. He's just talking a little too much info while sleeping.” Shizieru snorted as she, Keiko, and Botan arrived. Genkai awoke form the opposite corner from where Kuwabara lay.

 

“Might as well get up since you all woke me up.” She grumbled crankily.

 

“Sorry, Genkai,” Desota apologized.

 

“Oh shove it granny, you woke me up plenty earlier than this when I was training.” Yusuke snorted indignantly.

 

“Was? You STILL ARE training, you worthless lazy dimwit.” Genkai shot back coolly.

 

“You know what, you're really starting to piss me off, granny!” Yusuke cursed.

 

“Shush! I think he's coming to.” Desota hissed at him.

 

The blond boy suddenly shot up as if he had awoken from a nightmare. He let out a yelp of surprise, which Kyo echoed, since he was previously leaning over the boy curiously when he sensed him coming to. The boy huffed out a breath trying to calm himself down. When he noticed Kyo, his deep blue eyes widened in recognition.

 

“Y-you!” he stuttered pointing at Kyo. Then he looked around, “what h-happened? Whe-where am I?”

 

“Good morning to you too goldy.” Yusuke replied dryly.

 

 

“You fell unconscious after your fight with Kuwabara last night. So he brought you here to help you.” Desota explained at least one of his questions.

 

“You say it as if this is some party!” Yusuke whined, “HE'S OUR PRISONER NOW!”

 

“No he isn't.” Desota glared at him, “he's hurt. There for, he's not a prisoner. He's our patient.”

 

“WHAT IS THIS? A FUCKING HOSPITAL!”

 

“If things keep up as they are, Yusuke, then I don't think we have much a choice!” Desota replied sternly.

 

Yusuke huffed and looked away stubbornly to Kuwabara, “its that big oafs fault anyways. He brought the enemy here.”

 

“Kuwa…. Kuwabara?” the boy repeated.

 

Yusuke nodded over to the prone body in the corner, “the guy that you fought and nearly killed you last night. He brought you back here because you were hurt. I even asked him why he did last night when he came to, and guess what he said; he said it was the right thing to do. You know, if it were me you fought against, you wouldn't be conscious even right now. So you at least owe him the reason why you're siding against your own kind.”

 

The boy was silent.

 

“Those other three that were with him last night,” Kurama started, “they told us everything you did to them before they had passed out. We had to erase their memories to lift the burden of knowing their own kind is turning against them….. How could you do that?”

 

“Why, you ask?” the boy repeated, “because, we don't deserve to live.”

 

“When you say `we' what do you mean? The 7 psychics?” Yusuke tried to narrow it down.

 

“No, I mean all of use. All the HUMANS.”

 

There was an awkward silence just then. Desota's memory was starting to permit her to remember the boy's name, but it was on the tip of her tongue now, and not the right time to mention. So she waited a bit….. Until she heard him accuse the humans of needing the death penalty.

 

“All of them?” she blinked, “but…. why? What did we do?”

 

“Everything.” He replied quietly. His facial expression started to twist in fear of memories.

 

“But they never-,”

 

“I TOLD YOU! WE DESERVE TO DIE!” he snapped at her, but Desota paid no heed- or at least not too much. She was stunned to silence though. Kurama fought the urge to growl warningly at the boy for raising his voice at her, but he surpassed it to a soft enough one to where probably only Desota could hear it with her enhanced hearing.

 

“You don't believe me because you were born and raised in a better time, but I know what we're capable of! I know what humans have done to each other that is so sinful that I don't know how God can bare to make any more souls for use to live in! I've seen it! Chapter Black- every minute of it! I know the horrors that repeat time and time again in our history as we fucking repeat them blinded by our own greed in nature!” now he was traumatized.

 

That jogged a few memories. For starters, Desota got very still and very quiet. Gone away was that frustrating `wall' that kept her from remembering his name. She knew it …..And many other things that was hidden from her….. Including this `chapter black' video he spoke of. Boy! did she remember what he was talking about.

 

“Chapter Black?” Kurama gasped.

 

“You know about it?” Yusuke turned to him expectantly.

 

“It's a document that has recorded the horrors of man kind through out its history. Its one of many chapters the human nature- Hiei's been after it since I can remember.” Kurama explained in short.

 

“Must have been a good flick.” Yusuke mused.

 

“Its no laughing matter!” the boy on the bed protested, “have you ever seen what we've done? What we're capable of? How soldiers have raided unnecessarily on villages that weren't part of the wars? Horsemen who burn small towns to the ground and dance on their victims' bodies? What about a mother who was slain mercilessly in front of her children after being raped in the civil wars? Or vice versa with the child being raped and slain instead?! Huh?” he spouted.

 

Keiko sniveled in the background and Shizieru had to walk her out of the room. The poor girl had reached her sympathy level. Desota watched her with sympathetic eyes, but her own heart was crumbling at the sudden weight of all theses memories she knew Ryu had to have surpassed.

 

“Have you ever seen a tall cloud made form a weapon of mass destruction take the lives of people who have never held or seen a weapon in their entire lives? Blood melding into the river system orphans form the wars used as their only water source- did you see how slowly they died off one by one until the last few tried to eat each other to survive? The list goes on and on! I bet you can't even imagine half the stuff I've seen on that tape! But I can and I have seen it! You wouldn't want to save our dieing race either if you had seen it!” he challenged.

 

Yusuke let him catch his breath and was about to confront him when Desota put a gentle hand on the boys' knee, “Kiyoshi Mitarai.” She whispered just barely enough to be heard as she fought to speak before her pain was too great to handle. The boy looked startled when she knew his name, and Kyo cocked his head to the side worried at her dead tone, “I know you've seen the hurt that the humans can cause. I know form personal assault how hard it is not to hate a race you've seen such violence in.” she admitted. A single tear fell from her cheek, as she looked down ashamed.

 

“You- You've seen chapter black?” he was shocked, “wh- who are you?”

 

She smiled up at him, but it was only a friendly smile to ease his nerves, not a true one that Kurama had seen and loved to watch spread across her entire face, “I am Desota Ishtar. I remember you when Dark Angel told me to recruit you. It was I he ordered to show you the tape.” She didn't look at anyone but started at the floor.

 

His eyes widened, “so you're the one who lead me there?” his voice suddenly started to harden, “you're the one who told me everything would be alright, when you KNEW how badly I'd take it from your own experience with that fucking tape!” he would have continued his verbal assault if Kurama hadn't suddenly gripped his shoulder warningly to stop. Kiyoshi looked up at him furious, but Kurama simply glared back then looked down at Desota, silently willing him to do the same.

 

Desota was in silent tears. On her lips she uttered two words over and over, “I'm sorry”

Half the time, not even Kurama could hear her. Yoko was dieing inside in realization he had hoped would come later……much, much later.

 

/the memories have come back. She remembers everything now. Ryu's spell has worn off with out his constant presence there./ he actually sounded pained to admit it.

 

`She was the one who recruited him. Then that means she recruited the others maybe as well.'

 

/when she calms down, we'll see if she's up to sharing. If not, I know a few ways to get her mind off of it./ Yoko hinted.

 

`How can you say such a thing at a time like this you pervert!'

 

/she's our mate. It comes so natural, it's hard to control it./

 

`She's not ours yet. A few kisses doesn't mean anything like that.'

 

/well, then. All the more reason to get going ne?/

 

 

Kiyoshi sighed and bit back his own tears desperately trying not to let them fall, “I still have those nightmares. About what those people did to each other, except I'm the assailant. I'M the one causing their pain….,” he admitted as his voice tailed off, “I cant help it. I don't know what to do anymore.”

 

Desota shifted to sit on the bed and gave him a comforting hug that he gratefully accepted as she let him cry with her. Yusuke felt his heart sink, but when he noticed how close the two looked, he glanced over at Kurama, “why are you just standing there like that?” he whispered light enough that only Kurama could hear.

 

Kurama ignored him, “perhaps we should leave him be for now. He has to confront his own demons before he's ready for us.” He excused, motioning for Yusuke to follow him to the balcony.

 

99999999999999990000000000000000000099999999999999999999999900000 00

 

“DAMN!” Yusuke hissed as he slammed his fist on the balcony rail, “I get pissed off at what some crazy idiots do just by listening to the 6:00 news! But here those two are saying they actually saw a TAPE with Human horrors recorded on it!”

“Indeed, it is a well renown piece of information that many have pursued. I admit I myself had wanted it for a while.” Kurama honestly admitted.

 

/now, seeing the very mention of it give my mate that kind of reaction, I only see the piece of shit as revolting./ Yoko snorted.

 

Yusuke gave his friend a suspicious look and Kurama quickly moved to explain, “I said `for awhile,' meaning once a very long time ago.” He reassured, “it's said that with in 5 minutes of watching it can turn one against his own kind.”

 

“You're telling me, I nearly did just listening about it and seeing Desota admit to watching it…..which reminds me, how does she do that?”

 

“Do what?” Kurama arched an interested eyebrow.

 

“When SeaMan talked about the tape, he was freaking out about it. He could barely keep it together- but when she admitted to it, she only seemed to regret being the one to show it to him and sympathized with his pain.” Yusuke pointed out.

 

“From the way she's lead us to believe, Ryu had surpassed her darker memories of her past to protect her form…. well who ever this Dark Angel is. If that's true then more than likely, he's the leader and she was involved working under him at some point after seeing the tape. It has to be an old scar on her since she seems to have come to terms with seeing such gruesome sights- even if it may haunt her still, which I'm sure who ever is behind this is wanting to use this as an advantage against us. With one of our fighters traumatize, we wont be able to defend or attack to our fullest, and Ryu is still absent form last night as well.” Kurama explained his hypothesis.

 

“You think `they' ran into him?”

 

“If so, we'll meet up with him later. He can hold his own- its Dessy I'm worried about. I don't want to talk about Ryu's possibilities for why he's absent. She's already having to fight her newfound memories and most, so far, are painful. Ryu's absence will only hurt her more and I refuse to allow such a thing.”

 

“Sure, fox boy, I bet you're just wound up and high strung about leaving her alone with that Kiyoshi guy she seemed to know pretty well.” Yusuke joked as he looked over his shoulder and nudged his friend teasingly, “They do make a good couple, ne?”

 

“If you wish to keep teasing me about this I hope you weren't intending on having children.” Kurama's eyes flashed gold a moment as Yoko's sarcastic remark slipped through.

 

Yusuke backed off, “hey, hey, it was only a joke.” He held up his hands forefittingly.

 

Kurama rolled his eyes, “ah yes. That reminds me. You never asked me where I went yesterday, Yusuke.” Yusuke didn't say anything, but the look he gave the fox told him to continue, “I went to spirit world to confirm my suspicions,” Kurama said as he turned around to lean his back on the rail and let his green gaze stray to the inside of the room where Desota and Botan were trying to calm down Kiyoshi, “He has informed me that he knows exactly who we're up against, and it wouldn't be a surprise if some part of Desota's regained memory also has similar information.”

 

“HE WHAT!” Yusuke barked.

 

Kurama was about to ask the over zealous boy to calm his temper, but Yusuke was no longer at his side. Kurama stiffened unexpectedly when he heard, “HEY DIAPER BITCH! GET OVER HERE AND EXPLAIN THIS TO ME!” Yusuke was already contacting Koenma from his brief case communicator.

 

Kurama nearly tripped off balance, `not quite what I was expecting….,'

 

 

/Just what WERE you expecting then? It is Yusuke./ Yoko commented dryly.

 

“Hey, Kurama said that you said you KNEW who we're up against ALL ALONG!” Yusuke spat with venom of his rising temper.

 

Desota nodded to Botan to tell her she'd take care of Kiyoshi while Botan went over to Yusuke's side and watched Koenma curiously.

 

“It was only an assumption at first, but with the way things have been going and the reports I've just gotten, yes I knew.” Koenma admitted.

 

“JUST WHEN DID YOU PLAN ON TELLING ME!?” Yusuke yelled at the screen.

 

“Please Yusuke, it was a hunch that was JUST NOW confirmed- besides you never asked.”

 

“I DID TOO! I DID AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THIS FUCKING CASE!”

 

“Anyways…..,” Koenma ignored him, “your adversary is none other than the man who once was the spirit worlds spirit detective- Shinobu Sensui.”

 

“In other words, Dark Angel.” Desota said quietly from where she was on the bedside. She had just gotten Kiyoshi to calm down enough to stop shaking and both were listening intently to the conversation.

 

Kiyoshi nodded, “yes, he's the one who approached me first about all this before he sent Desota to lead me back to them and…..the tape.”

 

“Correct. He is the only one with the copy of chapter black. Before he disappeared 10 years ago, he always asked me about it along with the question `are we even worth protecting?'.” Koenma confirmed, “After that, he and the Tape was gone form the vault. I had hoped he went on to live in seclusion- never to be bothered again. It was the way he always seemed to be.” Koenma sighed.

 

“Instead, He started to search out souls that were lost and confused on Humanity- misfits and outcasts like Kiyoshi and I. He won our trust in ways he knew he could and used us for his benefits.” Desota said icily.

 

Kiyoshi straightened up at that to retaliate, “YOU'RE WRONG! SENSUI IS JUST AS LOYAL TO US AS WE ARE TO HIM!”

 

“He KNEW you'd probably die fighting Kuwabara. You were just a pawn to test their -supposedly- weakest link. Since Sensui probably knew he was the one that was newer to all this than Yusuke and the others. I can imagine he did the same thing with Sniper to probably find Hiei.” Desota snorted, “Its what he did to me to lure out Ryu, so why should it surprise me that he'd do the same to you.”

 

“How can you say that! He gave you a second chance!”

 

“He gave RYU a second chance. I was only in the way of his goal- Ryu was cursed in my body as a chamber cell for the crimes against Spirit world he created. He was slumbering when Sensui found out and lured me to him- seemingly to take me under his wing like a lost puppy on the streets. He treated me like a daughter until Gate Keeper informed him that Ryu was strong enough to be provoked successfully…..,” Desota's eyes hardened as the flash of memories passed her. No one spoke, too shocked that she would tell them this, “do you know how Ryu is provoked when he is slumbering?” she finally asked in a hushed voice.

 

Kyo whimpered and rubbed his cheek on her thigh form where he sat in her lap. He knew how painful it was- he was there. He suffered with her, but not to such an extent that Sensui put her through. Kiyoshi almost didn't want to know.

 

“He's brought out in the distress of pain in my blood.” Desota told him as she looked him in the eye, “Sensui can and will use anyone to get the power he needs to complete his mission- to destroy all humans in atone for what crimes we have committed to one another.”

 

“He's what!” Yusuke's eyes doubled in size as he looked back at Koenma for an explanation.

 

“Yumi was on the case at the time. Indeed, she had told me that Sensui was using a demon…. but we had no idea it was like that.”

 

“NO IDEA!? HE TORCHERED HER TO GET LIZARD BREATH OUT OF HER TO BE HIS PERSONAL BODY GUARD PROBABLY!” Yusuke roared.

 

“Yusuke, please, those things happened all the time. From the way we saw it happening, it looked like he was just making a demon repay him for some crime it probably committed against him. We had no idea it was Desota or that she was the one who held Ryu at the time!”

 

“SOME INTELEGNCE YOU ARE!!” Yusuke hissed.

 

“This is getting us no where. It'll be easier not to be intercepted in our talk if I come there. I'll see you in about a day.” And with that, Koenma let the screen black out.

 

“That son of a fucking-,” Yusuke was cut off when Desota spoke in a cold stern voice.

 

“Its not Spirit world you should curse, Yusuke.” She scolded him, “at least they tried to look into it, but Sensui usually has a plan to ward off people when he doesn't want any interference going on. If he didn't want them to know about my existence, then they wont, and they didn't.”

 

Kiyoshi hesitated before looking up at her, “Do you hate him for what he's done?”

 

“Its hard to bring myself to hate anyone anymore, Kiyoshi. I learn my lessons and move on. If one thing I have learned with living with a heavenly companion, its that hate gets you now where and all evil in a soul is balanced with some amount of good- its just that evil can be over powering and covers up the goodness in a soul.” She smiled when everyone stared blankly at her. It wasn't quite what they had expected as an answer, “Some times, I hate Sensui, but then…. when I see Kyo, and the way he acts around even the most corrupted souls, I can't bring myself to hate an enemy completely. It's what he wants- vengeance, and I refuse to give to him anymore than I already have. He's got what he wanted- Ryu and I are separated. If he continues to assault me directly or if he tries a fast one on my….,” she trailed off and looked back at the people she had come to trust in the room- what DID she consider them?…. she smiled, “my family- if he hurts anyone I care about, I'll serve him what I believe he deserves. Even the most Humble must be violent if necessary.”

 

“That was….. Beautiful,” Sobbed the now awake Kuwabara as he over heard her little speech, “you'd do that?”

 

Desota smiled genuinely at all of them, “Sorry, but you've won my loyalty and trust- so now you're stuck with me.” She stuck her tongue out playfully, “who and what you fight and for- count me in.” she flashed a thumbs up.

 

“Good to know we have another fighter with us,” Kurama smiled gently.

 

“Yeah, especially since Hiei and Yumi left….. Now that I think of it, where is that wolf demoness any who?” Yusuke looked up in thought.

 

Kuwabara grinned cheesily, “uuuuh-oh,” he snickered, “last time those two disappeared at the same time left some pretty INTERESTING results when they came back.”

 

“Interesting??” Desota repeated with a sweat drop.

 

“Yeah, It was one of the few times we saw that height-challenged rebel smile so big when he came back. He seemed REALLY happy about SOMETHING.” Yusuke joined in with Kuwabara's snickering.

 

“Hiei actually can smile like that?” Desota didn't quite get it, but she had a slight idea…. and if that was true, then she didn't think she'd be able to look at the two demons again.

 

“Oh I remember!” Botan held up a finger in thought, “wasn't that the time Koenma was going crazy because he thought those two were officially …….mated……and that Yumi was PREGNATE?” Even Botan started to giggle, “I can still remember his shocked face! Ah-hahahahaha!”

 

Kurama covered his mouth with a hand as he snorted to try and surpass his own bubbling laughter at the memory, “officially then? From what I remember, that's the way its always been in Hiei's prospective. He acts as if she should have a leash on her for him to keep her near at all times.”

 

Desota sweat dropped as her friends started bursting out laughing aloud now. Kiyoshi, Kyo and Desota shared a an odd look- all having thought that these people have lost their marbles since whatever they were laughing about didn't quite seem so funny to them. Perhaps it was an INSIDE joke? Although Kyo didn't get it, when he saw everyone else laughing, he started squealing in his own giggles to join in just cause he can.

 

Genkai looked at them all Dryly, “Koenma better get here soon or I'll find a new use for my spirit wave with these teenagers.” She sipped her coffee and walked out of the room to find a more peaceful place to relax. Koenma wouldn't return until a day and the enemy probably didn't know where they were yet- so there wasn't any immediate danger right now. She would let the young adults relax a bit. It would soothe their nerves and therefore, better equip them to fight level headedly in the up coming battles she knew that they'd need it in.
