Episode 6: Three Monsters

At the Great Treasure Hall of the Spirit Realm, three demons break free of a prison and steal three sacred artifacts.

Yusuke wakes up for school by his mom crying, thinking she is dreaming that her son is back alive. So he leaves for school.

At school, everyone still thinks Yusuke is dead, until he shows up and everyone is scared that he is going to beat them up again. Kayko shows up and Yusuke shows his first actual sign that he has feelings for Kayko in a flashback sequence. The school bell rings and off to class.

At GYM Class, Yusuke pulls out what looks to be a magnifying glass from his pocket. He then has a flashback of Botan giving it to him. It is actually his First Spirit Item. It is called the Psychic Spyglass. It is used to see through anything.

During the next class, everyone notices that something of theirs is missing. The Principal and Teacher, Mr. Iwamoto, calls him out of class and blames him for the items missing. Yusuke gets mad and just as he is about to release the anger by punching his teacher, Koenma appears and freezes time.

Koenma tells him that about his first Spirit Detective Case. It is to catch the three demons that stole the three items; The Shadow Sword, The Fortorn Hope, and The Orb of Baast. He then tells Yusuke to use his Psychic Spyglass on Iwamoto to find out that he stole the missing student items. He does and Koenma makes time pass again. Yusuke goes into Iwamoto's pocket and pulls out a pen that was stolen from a student. The Principal gets mad at Mr. Iwamoto and takes his to his office.

Koenma reappears and shows Yusuke how to use the Spirit Gun, an energy attack that can be shot from his index finger. He can only use it once a day though because his Spirit Energy is too low. Yusuke uses it on Mr. Iwamoto while he is walking a way and Mr. Iwamoto crashes to the floor like he was punched in the back.

Yusuke goes into the city where the sky turns red for a second. All of a sudden people start screaming as a child faints for no reason. Yusuke looks a little ways away and he sees the child's soul fleeing the area...This is the work of The Orb of Baast.

Yusuke follows it into an alley where he finds the person who has the Orb. Then, a mob of people attack Yusuke and the stranger gets away.

Meanwhile, Koenma learns about who stole the items. Three Demons by the names of Hiei, Kurama, and Gouki. Botan shows up at Koenma's office mad at the task that he gave Yusuke. He explains that if they don't get them back in a week before his Father gets home, King Yama, the whole world would go into chaos. Botan gets scared of this revelation.

It is raining and Yusuke sees a place where it is very bright and no rain is at. He goes there where he encounters all three of the Criminals. Hiei resembles a kid who looks to be gothic. Kurama looks to be in his late teens with red hair that goes down to his shoulders. And Gouki looks like I guy on steroids. Hiei thinks they can take over the planet if they use all their items. Kurama refuses to use The Forlorn Hope for this purpose and leaves. Hiei gets mad and goes after Kurama. This leaves Gouki and Yusuke alone.

Yusuke wants the Orb back, but Gouki won't give it up without a fight. Gouki pulls the little boy's soul out from earlier of the Orb and puts it in his mouth. Yusuke hits Gouki, making him spit it up and drop the Orb, which Yusuke picks up. The Soul then goes back to the little boy. Gouki gets mad and transforms into his true form...a Kyukonki. Gouki lifts up a tree and hits Yusuke, making him drop the Orb. Gouki gets the Orb back. Yusuke then tries to use his Spirit Gun on Gouki but remembers that he already used it that day. Will he survive?
