The story IS complete so I will post it all no matter what. Thanx to all who read this and all of my other stories ^_^

Chapter One: Running through the trees at full speed, Hiei headed back to Ningenkai for a little break. Since the whole demon world tournament, Hiei had stayed in demon world to serve on the patrol team. Makuro gave him the option to leave, but he didn’t want to. He was finally somewhere he belonged. No one here cared about his past or his future, and he liked it that way. Makuro was the only person that he willingly opened up to. He was intrigued by her. His mind was running over what she had last said to him when he picked up a disturbing scent. “What the hell is a half demon doing in this part of Makai.” He followed the energy signature, wondering if the new patrol had missed someone. He hated most humans but he didn’t want them dead in Makai. He stopped when he saw a female laying face down on the ground, her back slashed up and her clothes torn to pieces. He thought for a minute of leaving her then thought of the scolding he’d get from Kurama if he did, and Kurama was sure to be in Ningenkai for this visit. They all would be. It was after all, a special occasion. He sniffed the air around her and noticed that her blood reeked of poison. It was one that he recognized and Kurama had taught him how to heal it after the last person attempted to kill him with it. He carried the antidote in his cloak pocket specially designed for hiding daggers and the such. He sat the woman up and set her against a tree. She moaned in pain when her back hit the rough surface. When she opened her eyes to look at the person who had moved her, fear struck her. She held up a dagger to defend herself. “I’m not going to kill you.” Hiei said. “You’ve been poisoned and I just happen to have the antidote with me.” “What if you’re lying and you are trying to poison me even more to speed up my death?” she asked the man, very suspicious and barely able to keep her eyes open. “If I were going to kill you, I’d make it as slow and painful as I could.” Of course this wasn’t true, but he thought it might get her to let him work. It’s not like he really cared, he just hated Kurama being on his back. He needed water to prepare so he went in search of a stream. “If you move, I will kill you for wasting my time.” He threatened and this time he meant what he said. When he got back with the water, the girl was licking the wounds on her arm off. “Don’t do that.” He warned. “You’ll get the poison in your stomach and there will irreversible damage and I don’t want to explain your stupidity to the people who will be taking care of you.” The woman gave him a confused look. “Where are you going to take me?” she asked. “Ningenkai.” He replied. “If you stay in this part of Makai you will be eaten for sure and I have no time to make sure you get to the border so you’ll have to come with me.” “Why are you doing this for me?” “Hn.” Was all he said. “Turn your back to me and take off your shirt. I have to clean these wounds.” He took off his shirt and ripped it to pieces. One a long strip to wrap the wounds and several small rags to clean them. He had two separate containers of water, one to clean the wounds and the other to use for the antidote. He gently took the wet rag and cleaned the wounds the best he could. After he got them clean, he applied the antidote to all of her cuts. It hadn’t occurred to him the depth of what he was doing until he reached her exposed chest to clean and apply the antidote to the last of the cuts. It felt awkward to him, though he wouldn’t admit it. He didn’t know what to think of the situation either. He looked up and locked eyes with the woman for the slightest second and could tell that she was slightly embarrassed by all of it, even though she was too cocky to even let the poison knock her unconscious. Fortunately, the antidote would and he wouldn’t have to deal with any protests from her on the way to Ningenkai. He took the bandages he created and wrapped her in them. She had passed out before he got to finish, which made it even more difficult but he stuck with it. Finally, he was satisfied with his work and he was ready to go. Before he put her on his back, he wrapped her in his cloak and took a second to look at her a little closer than he had before. She had Black hair that reached the middle of her back that had red streaks in it. Her face was almost round, but it had almost the perfect curves to it. She was slender and short and it made it easier to carry her on his back. He started running, knowing that Kurama would need to take a look at her as soon as possible. When he finally stopped, he was at Genkai’s temple. The other two sent secret encoded messages for him to meet them there on this day. When he entered the temple, Kurama, Yusuke, and Kuwabara were there with Botan. He set the woman down against the wall and she groaned, but did not wake up. “My, what happened?” Botan asked in her usual girlish voice. “Pick a fight with someone on your way here?” Yusuke joked. Hiei just glared at him. “Kurama can you take a look at her. She was poisoned.” Kurama nodded and rolled out a bed mat to lay the girl on and told the others to go out and do something useful. “Not you Hiei, I need you here to tell me what exactly happened.” This time Hiei glared at him. Kurama just chuckled and waited for the little demon to get over himself and tell him what he needed to know. “I founded her on my way here. She was face down on the ground and I noticed she had been poisoned.” Kurama listened while he worked. “I knew the poison and used that antidote you gave me.” Kurama examined the girl and nodded. “She should be ok in a couple days. She’ll have to stay with me so that I can keep an eye on her for the side effects of that antidote. The bandages could have been done better though.” he said as he went to grab some fresh, clean bandages. Hiei glared at him again and Kurama just laughed, obviously not intimidated by his little friend. When he was done with his work, Kurama called the other three back inside so they could discuss the reason they had all come back here. “The wedding is in 3 days.” Yusuke started. “Keiko and Yukina are going crazy with the preparations so us guys have been hiding out here for the most part.” “Oh come now, It’s not that bad.” Botan objected. “I’ve had a grand time helping Keiko pick out your tux and all that.” “Botan, you are a freak.” Yusuke said. “Hey, It’s perfectly natural for a woman to get excited about her wedding.” Botan defended, crossing her arms across her chest. “Anyways,” Yusuke continued, “We have a bit of an issue. There are some demons sneaking across the border between human and demon world. It shouldn’t be a big deal for us, it’s something that happens all the time. Unfortunately, there is more to it this time. The demons that have been crossing over are recruiting half breeds and lower class demons to terrorize the human population and bring back their resistant half-breeds to Makai for sacrifices to an upstart that wants to be the new king.” “Most of the demons that are crossing over are outcasts and those criminals that have been committing lesser crimes. I have been tracking them for a couple of weeks now. Most of them don’t have anything that we couldn’t take care of our selves, but their new king is raising quite a fuss. He seems to be an B class demon, and the more half demons he devours, the stronger he gets.” Kurama informed them is his always business like and calm manor. “Geez, we can’t even have a wedding without having some kind of problem.” Kuwabara mumbled. “Excuse me.” A quiet voice came from behind them and they turned around to see the woman sitting up. “I couldn’t help overhearing.” she started to cough. “I Know who is bringing demons back and forth.” She was weak and still drowsy from the medicine. “Well, I don’t know him exactly, I know one of the demons that is recruiting.” She winced in pain. Kurama got up and steadied her and laid her back down on the mat. “Rest. We can get the information from you when you’re stronger.” He walked back over to the other four. “We need to keep quiet. She needs to rest and we need her well to get the info out of her.” “Hey Botan, do me a favor. Go tell Koenma we may have a problem. It seems that some demons are taking advantage of the chaos the next tournament is creating.” “That’s not surprising,” Kuwabara scoffed, “well I guess we all knew that it couldn’t last forever. My question is why would demons go to all this trouble when the penalty for such crimes is death.” “It’s because their leader would not be in any trouble. What he does with demons is his own business. As long as he doesn’t touch any humans,” Kurama told him, in a semi-disgusted manor. “Wait, but aren’t half-breeds part human?” “No. A half or part breed is any kind of demon that isn’t purely one type of demon as well as those who are human. If I’m not mistaken, that means Yukina would be a part breed.” “Wait, so you mean this guy is eating his own kind?” Kuwabara was disgusted. “Demons have no loyalty. Their only loyalty is to themselves,” Hiei’s voice was gruff like it always was when he talked to the orange haired oaf. They decided to take a break and get something to eat while the female demon slept. Kurama was the one to prepare the meal since he was the only one with any skill in the kitchen. Shizuru went in to help. She had some idea what she was doing since she helped raise Kazuma. It was also a way for her to be with her fiancee. Yusuke came in and sat at the table. “How come you guys didn’t want to get married at the same time we did?” he asked the two who were fiddling with the food, “If I remember right, you never told me why you said no.” “We want something small. Just our friends and family. A joint wedding is too hectic for my taste,” Kurama explained. “And on top of it, my mother is gone the day you scheduled it.” “Ah, oh well. Just means I’ll have to get my tux out again whenever you decide to do it.” “I thought you guys were going to RENT the tuxedos? That WAS the plan wasn’t it?” Botan said as she walked in. “When Keiko saw me in it, she said there was no way that she WASN’T going to buy it,” Yusuke was obviously annoyed with all the fuss. After they ate lunch, Kurama, Yusuke, Kuwabara and Hiei went to spar in Genkai’s forest. They stayed close to the house incase they were needed. Chuu and the other guys that usually trained at Genkai’s were off on one of her training expeditions deep in the forest and weren’t expected back for 2 days, just in time to prepare for the wedding that happened the following day. After about an hour of sparring, they took a short break. While they were resting, the girl walked clumsily out to where they were, followed by Genkai. “I told her to stay in bed and I’d get you, but she seems to be almost as stubborn as you, Yusuke.” Genkai was quite fond of her dim-witted student even though he was a pain in the ass. “Please. I must tell you the horrors that are going on,” the girl insisted. “Alright already, but sit down before you hurt yourself,” Yusuke urged, taking her arm and helping her to the floor of the deck. “Let’s start with your name and where you are from.” “My name is Kanu. I live in a small village of part-breeds in a forest not unlike this one,” She started.
