Then Botan, Yukina, Keiko, and Shizuru walk in the room. Keiko asks Kurama where Yusuke is since Puu [the Spirit Beast] is acting funny. Then they all play cards expect Hiei. Meanwhile Yusuke tells Genkai that he can not kill her. Then Yusuke tells her why. Genkai starts to giggle because she is still giving Yusuke the test since Genkai said that she would not give her power to someone who would kill her for more power. Then Genkai explains the test to Yusuke and shows him the source of her power "Spirit Wave Orb. Yusuke has to absorb it but it could also kill him.
