Chapter 1: Kidnapped

Spirit World

Koenma, in his teenage form, was stamping the piles of documents cluttering his desk when the door opened and in came one of the ogres followed by the last person he expected to see coming into his office. He stopped his stamping to turn his full to the woman who’d come into his office. Standing in front of him was the head of the kitsune house, Yuri.

“Yuri-sama what a surprise. How can I help you?” She came forward putting her hands on his desk.

“I’m sure you already know but Keiko will be dead in three years and Yusuke will more than likely go on a killing spree unless you give her to me and let me change her into a half demon. Yes I know that she’s human but we’d train her until she was ready to come back and wouldn’t be a problem. I don’t think you have to go to King Yamma about this but if you’re going to do it then I need to have her by midnight or else it’ll take too long to train her.” He crossed his arms contemplating his answer.

“Let’s have Keiko decide. Botan!” The blue haired ferry girl entered the office,

“Yes sir?” She cast a nervous look at the female kitsune.

“Go get Keiko and bring her here. I know it’s against the rules but it’s important.” The blue haired woman nodded and left to go retrieve Keiko.

“How are we going to keep this from Yusuke?” Yuri smirked and pulled out a small necklace from her pocket almost identical to the one around her neck.

“We’ll make it seem like she’s been kidnapped. Don’t worry neither you or Botan will be able to remember this until her training is complete.” He looked at her,

“He will want to know what happens to Keiko. So what would I tell him?” Yuri shrugged as the door opened revealing Botan and Keiko. Keiko came inside but Yuri quickly put her hand in front of Botan’s face causing the fairy girl to faint. She put her in a chair before closing the door.

“This must be kept secret what I’m about to tell you Keiko. And we must act fast if we’re to save countless lives. Please sit down Keiko. This is a lot to handle.” The brown headed human sat down in an available chair as Yuri began to explain.

“Keiko as I’m sure you’ve realized by now is that Yusuke will out live you. And I don’t mean by years I mean centuries. One of my demon abilities is to see the currents of fate given off by people. Normally people have only one which let’s me know around the time that they die. However you and Yusuke are two exceptions. I knew Yusuke would become a demon before he fought Sensui. I found out during the Dark Tournament about his demon blood. However when I saw you outside of the cave where the tunnel had been opened I saw two possibilities for you. One was to allow you to die 3 years after you married Yusuke leaving him alone for the rest of his life. The second one which actually appeared recently was to turn you into a half demon like Yusuke and train you so that you’ll always stay in control allowing you to live the same amount of time as Yusuke. Fortunately for me you have quite a bit of Yusuke’s demon energy on your body. You can’t see it but those with spirit awareness can sense it. I know this is a lot to take in Keiko but I need you to decide which one you want so that we can act quickly.” Keiko bowed her head looking at her hands that were curled into fists. Silence followed before Keiko looked Yuri,

“What do I have to do to become a half demon?” Yuri had to say she was slightly surprised that Keiko had chosen that option.

“You do realize that once you become a half demon there’s no turning back right?” The human nodded and Yuri sighed softly,

“This will have to look like a kidnapping to keep Yusuke from finding out. Once I take you to where we’ll train you, you won’t be able to contact anyone not even your parents. I’ll give you till midnight. When you’re ready to leave then put this on,” She held up the necklace for Keiko to see “you may say goodbye to one person and one person only. Once you’ve done that then meet me in the park in the center of town. From there we’ll take a portal to where you’ll be living until your training is complete. Don’t bring any clothes. We will provide you clothes because after you become a half demon none of your clothes will fit.” Keiko nodded and took the necklace.

“Yusuke is lucky to have someone as faithful as you are for his mate.” Keiko blushed and Koenma opened a portal for Keiko to travel through. Koenma looked at Yuri.

“Depending on how fast she masters her new abilities we’ll need some kind of cover up. When the training is finished I’ll contact you. Until then don’t tell Yusuke anything. It’s important that you forget about this until I contact you. Do forgive me Koenma.” She did the same thing she did to Botan to the Prince of Spirit World before disappearing from his office.

Human World

Keiko put the necklace the kitsune had given her into her jacket pocket as she walked home. It was dark out for night had just fallen so she hurried home and went straight to her room flipping through pictures of her and Yusuke. She looked at the clock and the red numbers read 11:30 so she closed the photo book and sat down at her desk writing a note to Yusuke remembering that it had to look like she’d been kidnapped. She sees the numbers are not at 11:40 so she puts the necklace on and stands taking the letter heading for Yusuke’s. Yuri’s voice rang in her head,

“This necklace will put you in a different dimension so that you can move freely and not be seen or sensed. Physical law doesn’t apply with this necklace.” She walked to Yusuke’s and entered his room. It wasn’t all that different from when they were kids and as usual the sheets are twisted around his legs. She smiles sadly carefully placing the note in his hand before lightly kissing him goodbye.

“Please forgive me Yusuke but there’s no other way.” She turned and left his house heading for the park. What she didn’t know is that Yusuke woke up right after she left and saw the note quickly dressing before running to her apartment to see everything the way it should be except she wasn’t there.

Park

Keiko arrived at where Yuri was waiting. There were two other hooded figures standing near her. One was wearing a black cloak and the other one was wearing a navy blue cloak standing next to two trees. Yuri stepped aside revealing a swirling of space. It was a portal.

“This way Keiko. We should hurry. Yusuke has awoken and will sense us if we don’t move quickly.” Keiko nodded and stepped through the portal as the other two quickly followed her and Yuri stepped through last closing the portal behind them. When the portal opened the scenery had changed. They were now at the base of a mountain range in front of a very oriental style house that was two stories and set against the mountains. Yuri turned to the other two cloaked figures and spoke softly,

“Natsuko you take Keiko in and get her settled. Suki, you and I will begin preparations for the ceremony tomorrow night that will bring the change to Keiko.” The black figure nodded and motioned for Keiko to follow her as they went inside the house while the other hooded figure remained behind to help Yuri…
