Author's Note: This is my first attempt at a Yu Yu Hakusho fan fic, so have mercy on my soul. And this is in no way affiliated with the creators/owners of Yu Yu Hakusho, I do not own it, usual disclaimers apply, blah blah blah. Okay, so on to the description. Team Urameshi has entered a new tournament, the Spirit's tournament, and up first in the fight is Kurama. What happens when everyone else but Hiei is defeated? Including the death of Yusuke, the strongest one next to Hiei? Read on and find out.

NeraLunne Sorry, I don't like Kuwabara, I think he's baka and annoying, So, this is the first time and last time I'll make fun of him in the story. I promise. I'll try. x.x; ------

"Come on Kurama! You can kick this punk's little butt any day! Let's go!" shouted the rather large, and stupid, Kuwabara.

"Has anyone ever asked you to shut your large mouth? Can't you see he's trying?" snapped Hiei, crossing his arms, and frowning, a look all to familiar to his face.

"Oh be quiet, you little punk! You're not helping!" screamed Kuwabara defensively.

"Hn." was the only sound that came from Hiei's closed mouth, he continued watching his companion fight.

-On the Field- "You see Kurama? It is your kind and gentle nature that keep you from killing me. You would be devastated. I thought you were a demon! So why not try harder!" shouted the small bald figure, Tasuko, who Kurama was fighting.

The battle so far was an interesting one, Kurama, who at the moment was on the ground, bound by large, red vines.

"That may be true. I do have a kind nature in my human form, but that does not prevent me from killing you. Suichi Minamono, my human form. Yoko Kurama, my demon form. Just wait, my friend, you will meet your end." said Kurama calmly, as if he were having a normal conversation.

Despite the fact that he was covered in blood, dirt, and sweat, he looked as calm and graceful as he normally did. Although, his eyes had a sort of look of determination in them, that no one saw except Hiei.

Hiei knew the feeling all too well.

Tasuko, who had appeared to have grown an extra head, took a large leap into the air, and ran full speed right at the entangled figure of Kurama. Kurama could feel his heart beating faster, and he could hear the gasps from his team mates, Yusuke, Kuwabara(BAKA!), Koenma, and Hiei.

He took a deep breath and managed to wrench one of his arms free of the tight grasp, ripping the fabric of his clothing and leaving a deep cut. He saw the blood begin to stain his clothes, and he turned his attention back to Tasuko, who was feet away now.

He managed to throw his rose whip just in time, it hit Tasuko, and sent him flying backwards.

Kurama gathered all the strength he could muster, and pulled as hard as he could away from the vines, but it did no good.

Tasuko regained his balance, and ran at Kurama again, this time even faster. Kurama had no time to react, the last thing he could feel before he blacked out was Tasuko's body slamming into his. He was thrown across the field and slammed into the wall.

"Kurama!" shouted Yusuke, who dashed over to his fallen companion, and leaned down next to him. Koenma got behind Kurama, holding his head in his lap.

"Looks like he won't be able to take part anymore...Obviously. Kuwabara, take him to the side, see if Botan will take him to the medics." he said, his spirit down a little.

"N-No...I...want...t-to stay...I must support you guys. P-Please.." he stammered, barely able to speak, or keep his head up.

"Hiei, you will take over for Kurama. Finish this Tasuko fool off." said Koenma. "

No! I will." said Yusuke. "Yusuke, we need you for the final match, you are the strongest one." said Koenma firmly.

"Alright...Go ahead, Hiei. He's all yours." muttered Yusuke, crossing his arms.

"Hn. This will be amusing." said Hiei, glaring at Tasuko, his eyes narrowing.

"I'm ready when you are, short stop." muttered Tasuko, grinning at Hiei.

"Fine. Let's get this over with so I can laugh as you as you suffer and die." said Hiei, smirking.

Author's Final Note: It's bad, I know! But be nice, it's the first YYH story I've ever written, and I'm trying hard. As usual, you can break my fragile heart with flames, but what I would like are suggestions to make it better, or praise. Or whatever. Anyway, More tomorrow, because It's storming here and I don't wanna break the computer, so, Ja matte ne, minna! Sayonara!
