Chapter 2
When they reached the top of the stairs, Genkai was waiting for them, but she wasn't the only one.
"Well we don't have to worry about calling," Yuseke said as he saw both Hinigeshi and Yukina.
"Koenma sent me just a little bit ago," Hinigeshi said.
"Yukina has been her visiting all afternoon," Genkai said.
"I'll help you find her," Yukina said. "Just hearing that story made me sick."
"I thought very hard about knocking down a few trees," Yuseke said, "you weren't the only one who was sickened by it."
"Where's Kuwabara?" Hinigeshi asked.
"He went to get his sister," Yuseke answered. "We figured the more girls the better." He noticed Hiei walking off. "Where are you going?"
Hiei looked back for a brief second, "No where," he replied, and hoped onto the nearest rock and sat down.
"He's going to search for the girl," Kurama said. "It'll make finding not only easier, but faster."
They waited. It took a long time, and by the time Kuwabara arrived with his sister, Hiei had still not found her.
"Man I would've thought he would've found her by now," Kuwabara said.
"The girl's powers are emitted from her," Genkai said, "but since the majority of her power is elemental, she is almost connected to the life in this city, at least those belonging to the elemental classes."
"So anything related to one of those elements could throw Hiei off?" Yuseke asked.
"It depends on what it is," Genkai answered. "The girl would have to be close by if the element were to attract Hiei, but she will leave a little remains behind."
"Like a trail?" Kurama asked.
"Kind of," Genkai answered. "But depending how long she's been here and how much she moves, the trail could be immense."
"So you're saying that if that trail is as big as it is," Yuseke started.
"It could take Hiei several hours to find her," Genkai finished.
Kuwabara slammed his fist into his opposite hand. "This stinks, what if he can't find her by nightfall?"
"He's been in that meditative state a while," Kurama said. "Once he's in there for a certain time, he won't stop searching for something until he finds it."
"How long is that time span?" Yuseke asked.
"About half an hour to forty-five minutes," Kurama answered. "Though it does depend on how important it is to him. Who knows, he may not even care and just forget about it and just give up. He doesn't have to do this, and you know he'll do exactly what he wants if he can get away with it."
"I really don't want to sit here much longer," Botan said. "Koenma didn't tell us what kind of condition she was in."
"He told me," Hinigeshi said. They all looked at her, minus Hiei. "Koenma said that she was so scared in the palace that he couldn't even get her to stay there long enough to get any of her wounds treated very well."
"She's hurt?" Yuseke asked.
"Yes," Hinigeshi answered. "But not just in body, but in mind and soul. She stayed there only long enough to get a little cleaned up, she didn't even get any new clothes, she only just put back on her old clothes after she was showered up a little."
"How long has she been out of the palace?"
"We aren't sure. Koenma had just told her that she could come here for help. That was two days ago, don't ask me why they just told us about it, maybe they thought that she would still be somewhere in Spirit World."
"So you're saying that she could've been wondering around here for the past two day?" Kuwabara asked.
Hinigeshi nodded, "I know it's bad, but Koenma said she was so scared. She was scared of even him. Two maids had to be with her the whole time she was speaking with Koenma, just so she would be a little calm."
"She must be very traumatized to be afraid of even Koenma when he's was trying to help her," Genkai said. "Boys maybe it is best that you stay here and the girls just go and look for her." They nodded.
Kurama was thinking about what state the girl might be in when Hiei chimed in.
-Kurama, I was listening as I searched. Tell the girls to head out. I haven't found her yet, but having them out there when I find her will speed up the process of getting to her once I find them. -
-So you did hear about her condition? -
-If a woman is that afraid, she shouldn't be out alone, not even for a minute. -
-All right, I'll tell them. - Kurama snapped out of the trance like state he had gone into while speaking with Hiei. "I just spoke with Hiei."
"Has he found her," Botan asked.
Kurama shook his head, "No, but he told me to tell you to go out now. He said he relay where she is to you when he finds her, so stay together."
They nodded, "Come on girls," Shiziru said as she got up. "Let's go find her."
"I hope Hiei finds her soon," Hinigeshi said. "It is already way passed noon, and it gets dark earlier now. We still only have a few hours of daylight left, and finding her in the dark will be very difficult."
They nodded, and the girls left the temple.

Kuwabara punched a tree, "I can't believe that demon could've hurt that girl so much, I mean, that's his daughter."
"Many demon men wish for sons," Kurama said. "Many times if a female is born, it is disposed of right away. This demon must have thought it would give him some entertainment to hurt her."
"I wonder why her mother didn't do anything about it?" Yuseke asked.
"She may have been unable to do anything," Kurama answered. "An apparition against a demon, normally a demon wins, but it does depend what the apparition controls."
"Koenma said she controlled earth though," Yuseke said, "That's pretty powerful."
"But it also depends on what the demon possess," Genkai said. "This demon that was her father probably had some powers that would render the apparition's powers unless against him."
"Our conversation just keeps getting worse and worse doesn't it?" Yuseke asked.
"And it may just continue down that rode," Genkai said. "Hinigeshi told me the girl's mother died when she was five years old."
"That's a long time," Yuseke said, "Eight years. Imagine what that guy could have done to her in that time."
"I don't want to," Kuwabara replied.
"Does this girl even have a name?" Kurama asked.
Genkai looked grime. "Hinigeshi was told that Koenma said that when he asked her for her name, she said she didn't know what it was."
"What?" Kuwabara asked. "How could she not know her own name?"
"From what Koenma found out," Genkai continued, "When the girl's mother died, her father stopped using her name, calling her by names I will not repeat."
"What an ass," Yuseke said, and then covered his mouth. "Sorry."
"Don't apologize," Genkai said. "That name doesn't even come close to what I wish to call him."
"Oh," Yuseke said. "What do you want to call him?"
"It is a word in a language that none of you will know, maybe," she added, glancing at Kurama. "But it means someone who is in connected with the most evil of hell demons in existence."
"You're putting that very mildly," Kurama, said, a slight glint of amusement in his eyes. "What you mean by contact isn't actually clean."
"Oh you guys are sick," Yuseke said as he covered his ears.
"Of course he is every single foul word that these humans have come up with," Genkai said. "I have never felt this way about a demon in my entire life. Never has this been told about, a demon abusing his child."
"Why do I have a hard time believing that?" Yuseke asked.
"Normally a demon teaches its child everything it knows, wanting to pass down its abilities, good or bad, down through the generations. This causes them to be very protective of their children."
"Well apparently not in this case," Yuseke said.
They waited for hours, but Hiei still didn't find her. When it began to get dark they began to wonder if they would even find her today.
"Man," Kuwabara said as he paced, "It's like the girl cleared the whole city."
"She may have," Kurama said. "If she's as fearful as she is, whenever she saw a man she probably ran. If my guess is correct, she's probably been running all day. Either running or hiding, which means she is probably very exhausted, and dehydrated."
"Kurama may have a very good point," Genkai said. "If she has been running, and does so every time she sees a man, she probably ignored every little thing her body needed."
"Damn!" Kuwabara said as his fist pounded into a tree, "If I could have just five minutes alone with that guy, and he couldn't use his spirit powers."
"That will be only a dream," Yuseke said. "Both the alone part, and no spirit powers."
"Don't remind me," Kuwabara muttered. He looked up at the sky. "It's getting pretty dark out, come on Hiei."
"He's going to have quite a headache later," Kurama said.
"Hmm?" Yuseke and Kuwabara asked at the same time.
"It's the reason he normally searches for something for only half and hour or forty-five minutes," Kurama answered. "If goes much longer, when he gets out of his trance he gets a nasty headache."
"He's been like that for hours though," Kuwabara said. "That's going to be one mean headache."
"He'll survive it," Kurama said, "He'll just sleep it off, of course I wouldn't be surprised if this one knocks him unconscious."
"Ouch," Yuseke winced. "I wouldn't want that headache." They each glanced at Hiei at the same time, just in time to watch the demon slowly close his third eye, and open his original two.
"They're going to her now," Hiei mumbled. He tied his bandana around his forehead and slowly cracked his back. Once that was done he held his now pounding head.
"Thanks a lot Hiei," Yuseke said. Hiei didn't reply, though none of them expected him to.
"Now we just have to wait for the girls to get back," Genkai said.

Author's Note: I wonder how Hiei's going to be when he's done? I hope he finds the girl soon. Don't you just want to tear her father in half? Wait until you see what I have planned.
