Yusuke was beyond shocked to see Kurama and Hiei in Youma. Kurama explains that Koenma send them to help Yusuke as a part of their punishment. Hiei and Kuwabara immdiately took a dislike of each other and started argueing until Yusuke and Kurama stopped them. The demons who know about Kurama and Hiei's reputation let them pass out of fear.

On top of a tower and in the shoadows, the four sacred beastes talk about the new comers, all agree that they will not be able to enter, the Gate of Betrayal stopped them.

The Urameshi gang enter the deep tunnel that is the entrance. A winged ball with huge eyes met them at the end of the tunnel and tell them they have to pass a trial. The demon pulled a trigger on the wall and the ceiling dropped on out heros. The demon tells them that the gate is ultra sensitive so if anyone weakens it will crash them to bits. The only one who can survive is if he betrays his companions. Hiei and Kuwabara argues some more because Yusuke asks Hiei to pull the level back up while he takes Hiei's share on himself. Hiei obeys, but hesitated when he reached for the trigger. The demon kept tempt Hiei to leave thh rest behind, Hiei only laughed and sliced the demon across the eye. The gate stopped dropping when Hiei pulled the lever, Yusuke thanks him warmly and Hiei actually feel embarrased. He replied he only saved them because the more people the merrier (That is how Hiei says "You're welcome.")

In the shadows, one of the beastes says it will go and take care of the heros.

The gangs was in one of the hallways when the communicator in Yusuke's pocket rings. It was Botan, she informes them on the condition Tokyo is in and they need to hurry. Yusuke asks Kurama about the four beastes but Kurama says he does not know but they are very inhuman. A voice comes out of a door thanking them. They opened the door, and there stood Genbu threating to kill them.

Kurama volunteers to fight Genbu since they have no idea what it can do. Yusuke screams this is a bad idea, Hiei replies that is only because he does not know how strong Kurama is (The first time they met, Kurama give up, they did not fight. Heck, we don't even know what weapon Kurama uses up to this point.)Kurama is very cold-blodded and cruel when it comes to anyone threating him.

Kurama stopped walking and tell Genbu to attack him at his own ease. But Genbu did nothing, Kurama said that if Genbu will not attack he will. Yusuke then noticed that Genbu's tail had sank into the ground, it come out behind Kurama and gutted him (Translation: cut Kurama across the stomach, it is going to happened a lot to Kurama by the time the manga is over.) Kuwabara is panicking, he is very scared of the monster.
