The Royal Reikai Ball, an event that happened only once a year. The most influential people of Reikai had attended, as they did every year.
Prince Koenma, crown prince to the throne of Reikai, danced with his beautiful bride to be, Ayame, out on the ballroom floor. Both were dressed in their finest. Ayame's dark hair was pulled back in a bun.
"Dearest, I'm feeling tired," Ayame muttered softly as the song ended, pulling away from her betrothed. "I think I'll retire for the night. Come get me if anything comes up?"
"But of course," Koenma replied, giving her a charming smile. "Rest up, love. Can't have you fainting on the floor, can we?"
Ayame gave him a grateful smile before taking her leave.
--
Only an hour later a shriek was heard from the sleeping quarters. A maid dashed into the ballroom, a look of horror on her face.
"Lady Ayame's gone!" the young elf cried, running to Koenma and pulling on his cloak. "She's gone! The window's broken and the room's a mess and she's not there! I've looked all over for her, Prince!"

Yusuke Urameshi roughly shoved his way through the crowds of people gathered around the mayor's house, an angry expression on his face.
"Where's Keiko?!" he demanded as he approached the mayor, his tone accusing. "What's happened to her?"
"Watch your place, boy," Mayor Yukimura returned, giving Yusuke a glare. "My daughter's whereabouts are no concern of yours. But if you must know, she went missing last night. There were signs of a struggle." He saw Yusuke's expression darken. "Yusuke, don't do anything foolish! We've sent rescue parties. There's nothing you can do!"
"Hmph." Yusuke turned his back on the mayor, unwilling to listen to the man. "We'll just see. I'm going to find Keiko! I WILL bring her back!"
Mayor Yukimura sighed and shook his head as he watched Yusuke walk away. "Foolish boy."

((This role play is officially open. No, I won't be controlling Yusuke, Ayame, or Koenma, I merely wrote that intro to get the role play going.))
