Author's Note:

Thanks to all those people who added my story to favorite! Anyway, I don't own Inuyasha or YuYu Hakusho. Oh, if some of you are going to add my story to favorites, at least review, the-tormented206 out.

Summary of This Chapter:

The preliminaries are done and both of the gangs are being showed to their suites. The next day will be the first round of the Tournament. YYH and IY made an alliance, so while IY fights, YYH watches. A familiar face to Youko is on the opposing team.

Chapter 2: Round One, A Familiar Face
9:56 P.M, Rin's P.O.V

When we arrived at the hotel, a gentleman showed us our suites. Well, suites isn't the best word to describe it, more like 1-story houses. Anyway, our suite had 2 bedrooms, one having a single bed, the other, bunks; a loft (sort of a platform attached to the ceiling) with two beds; two couches; a kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Me and Sango wanted to sleep in the loft, Ayame and Kagura claimed the two couches, Kikyo shut her possessions in the one-bed room, and Momoko and Kagome slept in the bunk bed room.

After settling into our room,we walked to Team Urameshi's suite, it was the same as our suite. After talking about the Tournament for 17 minutes, Youko brought up the rule about alliances. "Since making alliances between teams are allowed, how about we make an alliance?" he suggested. Kagome and Momoko nodded their heads in unison. We were interrupted than, by a huge group of people, I saw some familiar faces. "Surprise!" Shippo yelled as he fly-tackled Kagome. Sango, Miroku, Inuyasha, Kouga, Jaken, and Sesshomaru filtered into the room. Sesshomaru sat down and gestured for Momoko to sit down next to him, everyone else sat wherever they wanted to.

YYH Suite
Kagura's P.O.V

The dog, Sesshomaru, seemed protective of the fox, Momoko. I took a mental note of this, lest it be useful later on. I was about to ask why Jaken was here, but the ugly, orange-haired boy beat me to it. "EWWWWW! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING? Kuwabara yelled pointing at Jaken. "That is Jaken, he is here to serve as your punching bag." Momoko replied. I laughed at her remark, I can see why Sesshomaru likes her. Jaken spluttered indignantly, yelling about how he was much more than that. Rin than leaned over and whispered something into Kagome's ear. Kagome than whispered something in return, something about 'Yea ... practically ... zombie' Rin whispered something and Kagome nodded her ferociously, I wouldn't be surprised if her head fell off. "OI! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING TO MY SISTER?" The outburst had come from Youko. Evidently, Sesshomaru had nuzzled Momoko's neck and Youko had caught him in the act. Momoko slapped Youko on the shoulder and muttered something about dumbass brothers.

Kagome than said out loud, "Momoko, is there something you would like to tell to everyone?" Momoko blushed and shook her head quickly, "No." Inuyasha than leaned in near Sesshomaru and started sniffing. "Dude, you smell weird. Like, Momoko's scent is all over you." Youko was up quicker than I could blink. He wrenched Momoko's jacket down and inspected her neck. "Nothings there. I thought he marked you." Momoko punched Youko in the gut hurling him into the wall. I stood up and suggested that all of us go to sleep so that we have energy to fight tomorrow. The girls agreed with me and walked out the door, and to our suite. Momoko crashed immediately into her top bunk bed. The rest of us fell asleep soon after, me being the last. I was remembering the moment after Youko hit the wall, I looked at Momoko's neck and saw two indentation marks.

First Day of the Tournament
Kagome's P.O.V

All of us woke up quickly, except for Momoko, she definitely wasn't a morning person. The YYH gang arrived at our suite, waiting for all of us to finish getting ready. "Hey, is my sister up yet?" Youko asked. I smiled mischievously, I leaned over and whispered Rin's plan to wake Momoko up."I'm in." he smirked. I told everyone to go to my room. As soon as they all arrived, Rin came in with a bucket of ice. I counted down from 3 on my fingers. 3, 2, 1, DUMP! Momoko woke up instantly and started screaming 'Bloody Murder' until she calmed down. Rin tapped Kuwabara on the shoulder and handed him the bucket, he looked at Momoko, grinning at how ridiculous she looked. Momoko looked over to Kuwabara, he was holding a bucket with some remaining ice cubes in it.

"Wait, no, it's not what you think! HELP!" Kuwabara was able to scream the last word before Momoko tackled him and began to beat him up. "YOU ..." she started but caught herself. "Rin, look the other way and cover your ears." Rin nodded and did as she was told. "YOU FRIGGIN' BASTARD! DAMN YOU TO BLUE HELL!" Momoko emphasized every one of her words with a punch. By the time she walked away, calmly, to the kitchen to get coffee, Kuwabara was no longer recognizable.

At the Stadium
Momoko's P.O.V

Koto, a cat-demon,started to rant about the Tournaments rules and whatnot. I couldn't help but not pay attention to the rules, I never was a stick-to-rules person. After all, rules were meant to be broken, unless you have your friends and family at stake. Sesshomaru and the others sat front row in order to talk to us. I sighed, it was bad enough that the first team we had to fight consists of former thieves. Their 2 captains were concealed with cloaks and hoods, not that I should be talking. I had my hair hidden under a blue cap with silver stars on it. I suppressed my energy until I had only 1 tail instead of my usual 9.

The scent coming off of one of the captains smelled very familiar. My thoughts were broken when Kagome grabbed my arm and dragged me onto the stadium to decide how the round was fought. "One-on-one." one of the captains said in a smooth voice, familiarly smooth. Kagome and I nodded our head in agreement. The first one up was a redhead with blue markings on his face. He stepped up to the stadium and waited for an opponent. Rin walked calmly onto the stadium, much to Jaken's displeasure. Whether or not he shows it, he was concerned for her.

I watched as Jaken started biting his nail, a pile of ceratin starting to grow on Kouga's head. "FIGHT!" Rando began chanting some nonsense under his breath, Rin just walked up calmly to Rando. When she was straight in front of him, she kneed him in the Nether regions. He fell face first into the stadium. "Eugghh. That was crude." I said. "But effective." Kagome added. Yusuke and Kuwabaka stared in horror, holding their balls as Rin approached them.

"No worries, I won't hurt you, yet." she said assuringly. Yusuke muttered something about wearing cups to Kuwabara. I heard a yell from the stands and turned to see 7 new people had joined the front.

3 were boys, 4 were girls. One of the girls had light blue hair tied back with a fancy, red ribbon. She had crimson eyes and looked really gentle. Another also had blue hair, pink eyes, and had her hair up in a high ponytail. Another girl had brown hair, brown eyes, and was smoking. There was a little old lady with faded pink hair and brown eyes.

One had blue hair in a mowhawk, brown eyes, and a bottle of booze in his hand. Another also had blue hair, blue eyes, and a cold expression. One was a little kid with brown hair under a huge hat, brown hair, and looked downright adorable. Another had blonde hair, brown eyes, and a smug look.

I walked over and asked who they all were, they introduced themselves as Touya ( cold hearted ), Chu (drunkard), Rinku (boy), Suzuka (pretty boy), Botan (pink eye), Yukina (gentle one), Shizuru (smoke-addict), Genkai (hag). My team walked over and I made quick introductions. Kagura blushed when Jin said out loud that Kagura was cute. I stared at rink for awhile, before hugging him tightly, "You are just so adorable!" I yelled.

Round 1
Rinku's P.O.V

I freaked out when the guy grabbed me and yelled out that I was cute. I thought he was gay or something. Until I realized that the 'guy's' chest wasn't flat at all. My arms were dangling near his back when I felt something soft and silky. I petted it for a moment until it twitched.

I jumped back yelling, "There's some type of animal behind you!" Momoko tilted his head looking confused. Is this guy gay? He acts like a girl. And he had huge chests. I thought these words before the cat-girl yelled for the next fighters. One of the captains had jumped onto the stadium, Kagome jumped onto the stadium too.

The guy than took of his cloak, he looked like a toad that has been boiled in a pot of honey. Momoko started gagging, "Holy hell, what is that thing? It smells even worse than Drunkard's breath." he said. The last comment made Chu yell insults at Momoko. After seeing that Chu was not getting anywhere, he started chugging his booze.

The honey-toad charged Kagome, she calmly pulled an arrow and fired it. It hit right on the guy's forehead. Instead of falling down, body intact, something else happened. A huge bright pink light enveloped the guy, and he was thrown backwards in a pink comet. The attack wipes out a 8 feet wide straight line of demons.

"ONE OF THE TEAM MEMBERS OF TEAM HIGURASHI IS A MIKO! " Koto yelled. I could understand why she was freaking out, mikos are a demon's archenemy. All the demons were silent, all of them afraid that Kagome might fire another arrow. Thankfully, Kagome announced that if no demons from the crowd get in her way, she won't purify anyone.

A minotaur entered the ring, apparently too dumb to know what a miko is. Kagura tooked that round, the result being Minotaur chops with a side of blood. A demon with what looked like 7 shiny shards in his forehead entered the ring. His power was so intense, I had to grip the railing so I wouldn't fall.

Sango took this round. She had difficulty at first, dodging all of those energy attacks. But than there was an opening and she threw her huge boomerang-thingy yelling Hiraikotsu! It chopped the dude into three pieces!

Sango walked over to the demon's forehead and took out the seven shards. She tossed them to Kagome, and exited the the ring. The other captain twitched when Sango took the shards. The 6 people next to us jumped over the railing and walked over to Team Higurashi. I remembered that when we sat down next to them, they had introduced themselves after we had.

They were Miroku (monk), Inuyasha (doggy ears), Sesshomaru (serious dude), Shippo (fox-boy), Kouga (wolf guy), Jaken (toad). After identifying all of them, I saw Miroku hand go down and grope Momoko's ass. He turned around and yelled, "HENTAI!" That settles it, Momoko is a gay guy. Sesshomaru nearly killed Miroku if Momoko hadn't hugged him.

The next round came up. A lizard demon crawled up to the stadium, Kikyo took this round. She past the round with 2.5 seconds. Who knew arrows were so useful. Next round included a normal looking coyote demon. Ayame took the round and lost, the coyote had poison claws and fangs. The poison was lethal, and took Ayame out for the count.

Sango dragged her off the ring and set her down. Momoko had taken a sample of the poison and came up with an antidote. Kouga was hysterical! He had to be knocked out so he wouldn't disturb Ayame's nap. The other captain jumped onto the ring, and by jump, I mean the 34 feet high jump. Momoko calmly walked to the ring.

Last Battle
Momoko's P.O.V

"Aren't you going to take of your hood or cloak?" I asked innocently. "Aren't you going to take off your hat?" the other captain retorted. I grinned widely, if I didn't kill this guy, than something tells me we will be good friends. Koto announced the fight to begin. We had a stare-down for a few minutes. That was until I noticed something red, it was that pendant. I used my thieving skills and swiped the necklace. My opponent didn't even realized it. I held up the pendant above my head so that Youko could see. I felt his youki rise up in anger. His anger was reflected in me.

How dare some random demon find our friend's pendant, the same one that cost him his life. He twitched, and I dubbed him the nickname Twitchy. Twitchy charged at me, I did my signature step-aside-grab-his-wrist-knee-him-in-the-stomach-and-hurl-him-away move. He was unconscious for only five seconds, he than flew into the ring. Wait, flew?

I ran up towards him and grabbed his cloak, he mirror my movements and grabbed my hat. We both jumped away to reveal each other, the result shocking everyone. My opponent was none other than, Kuronue. I could feel all eyes boring into my figure. I couldn't care less, Kuronue was alive. I stared at him, he still had his elegant wings, long black hair up in a ponytail, tall black-clad figure, and beautiful violet eyes. I wanted to run up to him and hug him to confirm that he was there. The urge was too much, and just as I was about to tackle him. He ran up and bear-hugged me.

During the Fight
Kuronue's P.O.V

It was her, Momoko and Youko. I just happen to realize that he was standing right there, along with an inuyoukai that was growling at me. I nuzzled into Momoko's neck and felt two indentation marks. I jumped back screaming, "HOLY SHIT! YOU HAVE A MATING MARK ON YOUR NECK!" I saw Momoko give me the classic, I-will-kill-you-for-this-later-after-I-explain-to-Youko look. I just remembered that we were still in a fight, but I chose not to continue. I joined for the wish, I was going to wish for the knowledge of my two best friends. I had been granted just that.

"I forfeit!" I yelled. Koto than announced that Team Higurashi had won. I jumped off the ring and followed Momoko to her team. Youko's tail was all fussed up, apparently from the 'mating mark' outburst I gave. The tall inuyoukai swept Momoko towards him, obviously thinking I liked her or something. He nuzzled her neck, earning a growl from both me and Youko. I saw Momoko as a sister, and I would rather see her turn into an emo than be hurt.

"I guess I should confess. Me and Sesshomaru here are, um, ..." she trailed off blushing madly. "Mated." Sesshomaru said curtly, he nuzzled her neck again to show that she was his. Momoko made quick introductions to everyone. I listed everyone off in my mind. Apparently, Team Higurashi and Team Urameshi had made an alliance.

Inuyasha's mouth dropped along with everyone else (except me, Youko, Kagome, Sesshomaru, and Momoko) when the couple had announced their mating. Youko started to make threats to Sesshomaru if he ever hurt Momoko. While Inuyasha started to interrogate his older brother.

Sesshomaru was obviously about to kill Inuyasha, until Momoko asked him to restrain himself. We walked off towards Team Higurashi's suite and started to catch up with each other there. I was dead shocked that Youko was still alive. I bet that the next round will be very interesting to watch.
