Previously, the world was under threat of destruction from the clones of Kurama, led by a female version called Rose. The other Kurama clones were destroyed, and Rose was dealt with by assimilating with Kurama. The earth was safe again, but as the new spirit detectives, Kaisei and Fubuki, dismantled the orb for Spirit World, Koenma stumbled across some disturbing information. The Foliage Fortress was originally meant to be one of the Gifts to Deity. With mysterious modifications, the world was in fact not in danger, but demons were. What could this troubling new discovery mean?

[Pan across Spirit World. Ghosted flashback from the original series of Itsuki taking Sensui into another dimension.]
Itsuki Voiceover: Your Spirit World will have to create another enemy so you can keep on fighting; as that is, after all, what you do.

[Inside Koenma's office, Botan stands in front of a perturbed Koenma.]
Koenma: Botan, I need you to have Fubuki do something, [pause] without Kaisei.

[Snow gently falls around Genkai's compound. Two pairs of feet crunch in the snow while ascending steps. It is Yusuke and Kayko, with Kayko holding Kazuki. They reach the temple. Yusuke taps on the door. The door slides open with Yukina on the other side.]
Yusuke: Not too late for the party, are we?
Yukina: [shakes head] We just started.
[Kayko and Yusuke enter the room and take off their coats and boots. Kuwabara jumps behind Yusuke and chokes him in a headlock.]
Kuwabara: About time you got here, you punk!
[Yusuke flips Kuwabara, landing him on his back. Yusuke falls on him as they sprawl.]
Yusuke: What, you missed me? Sorry to break it to you, but I'm already taken.
Kuwabara: You know that's not what I meant!
Yusuke: Yeah, sure. And being single has nothing to do with it?
Kuwabara: Oh lay off, the timing hasn't been right.
[Yukina looks down with her hand covering her mouth. Shizuru approaches.]
Shizuru: [to Yukina] Nice to see someone's having fun.
Yukina: Will they be okay?
[Shizuru slides open the door and walks over to Yusuke and Kuwabara's brawl.]
Yusuke: I don't believe it, but you've gotten weaker!
Kuwabara: Oh I'll show you weak!
[Shizuru picks up Kuwabara up by the collar]
Kuwabara: [side-phrase] Hey! Let me down!
[Shizuru starts punching his face with her free hand.]
Shizuru: If you boys are going to rough house, then take it outside!
[Shizuru throws Kuwabara out the door. He slides face first through the snow. Shizuru slaps the door to shut it and brushes her hands off.]
Shizuru: There. That takes care of that.
[Sounds of running to the door are heard. The door moves back and forth a few times, then Kuwabara busts back into the room. His skin is all blue with icicles hanging from his nose. He falls to his knees in front of Yukina, grabbing her shoulders. Yukina is taken aback.]
Kuwabara: [chattering] Oh, my dear sweet Yukina, I think I got frostbite! Can you make it all better, please?
Yukina: Ummm...
