Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Last Slave ❯ The Golden Seal and The River Styx ( Chapter 3 )

The Last Slave

Thank you for reviewing, and please review more! Do you like my long chapter? Anyway, REVIEW WITH NO FLAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yoshihiro Togashi Made up Yu Yu Hakusho. Not me.

Kurama woke up slowly in a weird and gloomy room. He opened his eyes to discover himself on a purple and green sofa. He looked at his cloths. He happened to have on a transparent robe with nothing else. He blushed very hard, realizing someone had to have changed him. He looked around. Neon colors that gave him a bad feeling surrounded him. A bunk bed was behind the odd colored sofa. The sheets looked like curtains, and were slick and slippery. Purple and green they were, too. Perfect for something Kurama didn't want to think about (except maybe if Hiei were there…). The walls were Red and Blue and Purple. The carpets were green. A closet stood in front of him. He looked around to make sure no one was in the room. He was sure no one was there, so he walked around looking for a cloth to put around him. Sadly, the floor was messy with pillows, but the nearest piece of cloth was on the bed. He blushed looking at that bunk. He didn't want to walk over to it, so he just stood there. "I see you're here, too. I don't know why I'm here. Do you?" A voice said from behind him. His heart stopped, and he looked behind him. Sitting on a brown pillow was a young Koorime. Her eyes were the colors of Hiei's, and her hair reminded him of ice. "I'm Yukina!" She said. Kurama rushed over to the bed and grabbed a purple cloth. He then made a robe quickly out of the purple cloth. She appeared to have been wearing the same thing as him, but had token a brown cloth and made a robe out of that. "I'm Yukina!" She repeated. "Who are you?"

"I'm Kurama." He tried to remember where he had heard the name. Then it came to him. Hiei mentioned something about his little sister Yukina to Kurama once, but Hiei was drunk.

"Want to explore? I was going to, but I didn't want to go alone."

"Ok,"

The two got up. Kurama wondered if this was Hiei's little sister. Yukina and him opened the door to the exit of the room, and with a start, Kurama's head hit someone-

something walking by. Immediately, Yukina giggled. Kurama gasped, then seeing whom it was made him giggle, too. The person was wearing a pretty light green hat that split in two at the top and went down. At the end were bells. He was wearing the same green color on his sweater as his hat. The buttons on his sweatshirt were orange, and his shorts were that green, too. He was a jester. "I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! I'm sorry! I'm Sorry" He spoke with a Greek accent. Then realized they were not to be afraid of, and he said, "What are you doing up so late? It's 3 in the morning, and you won't want to escape. They have guards everywhere, and if they catch you, you'll be exterminated! I am going to be gone next week, you know." He took off his hat. His eyes were purple like amethysts, and his hair was a silver blue color. You could tell it was long, and it was spiky, but he had it in a ponytail. "My name is Apollo." He said

"I'm Yukina!"

"Hello, I'm Kurama. Pleasure. Could you tell us where we are?"

"You are in the castle in the air. You know, King Hintou's castle."

Kurama's heart stopped. King Hintou? Is that not Yusuke's mission to beat him? Kurama thought.

"We must get out of here." Kurama said.

"There is no way," Apollo said sadly. "I've tried looking for a secret way out."

"There must be some way," Yukina said.

Kurama's heart ached. He wished he were in his room again with Hiei. He wished to go back in time. Although he would just come here, again, he would use the time more preciously with Hiei. Hiei must be worried… Kurama thought.

*****It was morning by now, and the sun was up. Yusuke was up at the crack of dawn and happened to run into Hiei. "Yusuke. Listen. Kurama has disappeared. Do you know anything of the sort where he could be?"

"No, of course not! Why would I know? But I did have this dream…"

"About what?"

"Kurama. You see, he was getting whipped by this-"

Yusuke realized his dream was warning him. Possibly Kurama was token away to become a slave? Or Hiei has gone crazy. Yusuke thought. But Hiei seemed to be pretty serious about this, for he was. "WHIPPED?" Hiei yelled bitterly. A voice came from behind them. "He has been stolen to do slavery work. Hintou happens to want Youko Kurama to himself, so I don't know how that will go." Yusuke and Hiei turned around to see Suzaku. Yusuke opened his mouth, but whatever he was going to say, didn't seem to come out. Suzaku said after that, "We can't trust Koenma to find that dimension, it'll take him over three weeks. I do have an item, though." He took out the Reikai flute. The wood was red, and shiny. "The Reikai Flute can pause time for as long as someone plays it. If I was to play this for a day straight through, you'd have a day of paused time to make a plan."

"Let's do that than!" Hiei said out of the top of his mind.

"What's with you, Hiei?" Yusuke looked at Hiei like Hiei was an idiot. "Anyway, it can't be that easy can it?"

"No, I believe our spirit energy has to be higher." Suzaku said. The three of them sighed. Hiei jumped away, and Suzaku walked away, leaving Yusuke wondering what to do. Kurama was in great danger, and with Hiei and Suzaku around him, Yusuke wasn't too safe either.

**** "Koenma, sire!" An ogre ran into Koenma's "throne room."

"Yes, what is it?" Koenma said while stamping pages for the dead.

The ogre was panting and had a horror look on his face. "The Golden Seal! It's missing!"

Another ogre ran into the room. "Koenma, sire! The River Styx!"

Koenma looked out the window to see no water in the River Styx. Ogres were around it, and trying to find out where the water was. Koenma turned his head back the first ogre, and now Koenma had a horror look on his face, too. "You say The Golden Seal is GONE?"

"Yes, Sire!"

"And the River Styx is gone, too?" Koenma asked.

"Yes, sire!"

Koenma wasn't sure what to do. I can understand why someone would want the Golden Seal, but the River Styx? Thought Koenma. "Whoever stole the Golden Seal must have stolen the River, as well," said Koenma. " I must contact Yusuke. Botan?"

**** "Yusuke!!!" Botan called out to nothing while looking for him. He sure wasn't anywhere outside, so he must have been inside a building. The first place she looked was in the arcade. The second place was his home, then school, and then she didn't know where to look. But this was urgent. Yusuke needed to come to Reikai. But where was he? Nowhere in sight. But then it hit Botan to ask Kuwabara where he was. She rushed over to Kuwabara's house, and took out her new oar and flew up to the window she new was Kuwabara's and knocked on it. When Kuwabara opened it, Yusuke was there too, playing a video game. "YUSUKE?" Botan yelled. "YOU HAVE TO COME TO REIKAI!!!! THE RIVER STYX AND THE GOLDEN SEAL ARE GONE!!!!! SOMEONE STOLE THEM!!!!!!!!"

"But who?" said Yusuke.
