Her Name?

To Find What cannt be Found
By Kagehoshi
ch 2 Her name?

*I don't own IY or YYH*

No matter how you strained your hearing, you would not be able to hear the apparition approach you. Even if you knew he was coming his entrance would have been a complete surprise. It would almost be as if he had just appeared out of nowhere to end up directly behind you and subsequently scare the bejeezus out of you. Such an occurrence could not be avoided on your part, since you are unfortunately greatly limited by your humanity. While the apparition that is sneaking up on you is not limited in that respect in the slightest.

Hiei is a demon, and a very powerful one at that. If you were to face him in battle it is most likely that you would be dead before you knew what was going on.

As we watch this silent apparition shall make his way to the sleeping youth.

“There had better be a very good reason you're getting me up from my nap, shorty.” Yusuke said suddenly, not even bothering to rise from his relaxed position or even to open his eyes.

“Hn. Koenma wants us.” Hiei replied in his usual monotone.

“Damn toddler. What does he want now?” Yusuke complained slowly and reluctantly rising from the sun warmed ground. Hiei was silent as the Spirit Detective loosened his muscles and worked the kinks out of his neck.

“Well let's go. I'm sure somebody's in need of an ass kicking.”

In paintings of the Underworld King Enma is portrayed as a huge man with a bristling beard and smoke pouring out of his mouth. You will not see pictures of King Enma's son. Mostly because King Enma's son looks to be about 3 years old.

Koenma paced in his office sucking on his binky furiously, he shouldn't really need to be worried this time. It wasn't as if he was sending them off on another difficult mission. This was like a vacation, they should be happy to get such an enjoyable assignment. However, the tiny ruler of Spirit Realm knew better. Anything that disrupted their daily lives was considered a nuisance and more often than not, his team took out their frustration on him. Why must they be so obstinate? Every mission he gave them was of the utmost importance, and despite the seemingly ease of this one, it probably ranked on the top three in order of importance.

Koenma jerked his attention towards the entrance to his office as a very irritated Detective banged the door open.

“There had better be an earth shattering crisis going on or else I'm hauling my ass back to sleep!” A quite obviously pissed Yusuke hollered at the diminutive prince, as he stalked into the room. Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara quickly followed him in a not as dramatic entrance.

“While it is not quite a crisis, it is most definitely earth shattering…or it could be if we don't do something about it now.” Koenma stated firmly, intending to get Yusuke to take this seriously.

“Well better to get it over with now, rather than have a crisis on our hands later.” Kurama said calmly, his emerald green eyes latched onto Koenma.

“What's the damn mission then toddler?” Yusuke grunted crossing his hands over his chest.

“It has come to our attention that a very powerful artifact has resurfaced in the human realm.” Koenma began, ignoring Yusuke's 'toddler' remark.

“Artifact?” Kurama asked, his Kitsune nature coming to bear at the prospect of treasure involved.

Koenma nodded gravely, “The Shikon no Tama to be exact.”

Yusuke and Kuwabara looked confused, but the two demons reacted strongly. Hiei frowned and fingered the hilt of his Katana thoughtfully, while Kurama widened his eyes in surprise and started blurting out questions.

“That's impossible, the Shikon no Tama was destroyed five hundred years ago.” The fox stated, “Are you sure that is what you are sensing?”

Again the tiny prince nodded. “No doubt about it. The Jewel is back and even more powerful than before.”

The two demons were silent at this announcement and Yusuke took this opportunity to butt in.

“Just what the hell is the Shikon no Tama?”

Koenma switched on the view screen, which displayed a picture of a small pink gem attached to a thin chain.
“The Shikon no Tama is an extremely sought after jewel, which has the ability to greatly increase the strength of any demon who possesses it. It's last guardian, a miko by the name of Kikyo, died 500 years ago and had it burned with her body. Now it has somehow returned to the modern era,”

“So all we gotta do is go and pick this thing up and bring it here then?” Kuwabara asked skeptically, “Seems kinda easy to me.”

“It's not quite that easy,” Koenma replied a little uneasily, “You see currently the gem resides inside the body of its current guardian, and it must remain there. Only a Miko of the highest virtue has the ability to keep the jewel purified so to remove it from her would mean for it to become tainted.”

“So what the heck do you want us to do?” Yusuke asked beginning to become really pissed at the little demigod.

“In the past the current Guardian has quite ably defended the Shikon no Tama, easily defeating those demons who sought its power. However, the number of attacks on the Miko have increased dramatically in the past couple of months, and we have reason to believe that someone is going to be making a serious bid for the Jewel in the near future.”

“Is it your intention to assign us to protect this guardian?” Kurama asked softly.

“Awww hell not another babysitting job.” Yusuke groaned. Hiei made as if to leave, he didn't do babysitting.

“No, that is not my intention.” Koenma replied firmly, “While it might solve the immediate problem it won't help much with the overall one. Even if this opponent is defeated it won't stop another one from rising up, or another one after that. The girl doesn't need a babysitter.” Koenma swallowed his death was near he could feel it, still he pressed bravely on, “The girl needs a mate, a powerful one.”

Complete and utter silence met this statement as the Detective Team slowly absorbed the meaning of the sentence just uttered by their boss.

This time Hiei really did get up to leave as Yusuke and Kuwabara both began shouting at the same time.

“What the FUCK is your problem you sick twisted baby!!”

“I will not abandon my Yukina!”
This went on for several minutes as Koenma attempted to regain order.

“This isn't a request, this is a command. Nor do I expect you to force yourself on the girl. All I want is for you to meet her, try at least to make friends. We'll let nature take its course from there.”

“You are expecting a little much.” Kurama informed the diminutive ruler, “This girl is a Miko, what makes you think she will not purify us on the spot, let alone talk to us? Mikos and Demons are not known for getting along.”

“This one is different, apparently she's made friends with some very powerful Demons. Including Lord Sesshomaru of the West, and Prince Kouga of the North. Her file also states that she was in love with a hanyou, but I'm not sure if that is correct her file seems a bit jumbled.”

Kurama felt his interest spark, even his counterpart Youko seemed curious now. 'A Miko who can befriend Demons… how fascinating.'

“I would also like you to try and convince her to get some extra training at Genkai's.” Koenma continued, “It couldn't hurt her, and at least she'll have the added protection of the temple wards around her.”

“So all you want us to do is talk to her?” Kuwabara asked, “Nothing else?”

“For now that's all I ask. See if your interest sparks when you meet her. I'll be sending some others with you when you go to meet her.”

“Others?” This from Kurama.

“Friends of yours actually, all very strong.”

“So what's this chick look like anyway?” Yusuke asked bored out of his mind. Keiko may have dumped his ass because she was scared of his demon self, but that didn't mean he wanted another girlfriend. They were too much trouble in his mind.

“Oh of course, how forgetful of me.” Koenma mumbled, fumbling for the screen remote. Pressing a button the picture of the Shikon disappeared to be replaced with the smiling face of a young girl about 16 or so.

The reaction was instantaneous, the girl was gorgeous and every male there recognized it.

'Never have I seen such exquisite beauty before.' Youko mused, and Kurama silently agreed with him. His interest was definitely sparked, and so was the interest of every other member of the team if he guessed correctly.

“Name?” Hiei grunted, confirming that the girl affected even the stoic fire youkai.

“Higurashi. Kagome Higurashi.”
