A New Face

Chapter 6: Sling

"Do not waste your time." advised Kohanaharu.

Suddenly she jumped up and right after her followed the beast from
underground.

"BLADES OF THE STAMPEDE!" she yells; with this command she threw the blade
at the youkai, and in mid-air the fan dispersed into an arsenal of 20
shredded boomerangs. The youkai made an attack of his own: "FLEDGLINGS OF
THE DARKNESS FLAME!" the rat cried out.

Hiei stood in shock; from so many battles using the darkness flame, he had
never seen or heard of this attack.
Suddenly the rat-youkai was engulfed in a black flame that burned away his
exterior to reveal that he too was a fire-youkai: a giant with dark red
hair and glowing orange eyes. With his true identity revealed, his opened
wide as he exhaled black flames. Hitting the ground the flames morphed
copies of the youkai, but were smaller than Genkai.

Cackling and grinning maliciously, all 7 lunged at Kohanaharu.

Then something dawned on Kurama, "Look out, Akina!!!"

"Akina?" Yusuke wondered.

Kohanaharu, in surprise, turned toward her ancestor. But not long as the
fledglings attacked her from behind and began gnawing at her arms and back.
There then was a crunch, where one had broken her arm.
"Get off of me!!!" she demanded.
With a blast of her spirit energy, they vaporized in a red aura.

Kohanaharu raised her head. With even a blast even strong enough to
vaporize the darkness flame, her spirit energy never did decrease in the
red aura around her.
"I told you that you knew me." she replied to her ancestor's call

Without warning the youkai grabbed Kohanaharu by her snow-white hair and
began to sling her around in circles. Crying out in pain, Kohanaharu's head
began to bleed as the fire-youkai finally let go and slung her into the
woods.
"KOHANAHARU!!!!" Yusuke yelled as he growled in anger.

Hiei became furious as his bandana burned off uncovering the also angered
Jagan eye.

Kurama looked scared to death for his descendant, and with a fueling hatred
of the memories of this fire-youkai, transformed into Youko Kurama.

But unbeknownst to the three fighters, Kohanaharu already had every planned
out. With the force of her impact she snapped through Makai trees like they
were just toothpicks. But up ahead there was a steep cliff on the
mountainside.

Cutting down the last tree in her path, she flipped over, putting her feet
first to land on the cliff side.
"Here we go!" she yelled as in a split second, she crouched on the mountain
side, and with a powerful shockwave launched off and back to her opponent
at bullet speed; leaving the mountain side collapsing behind her, she
pulled the white rose from her hair.

"ROSE THORN SWORD!" she commanded.

In that instant the rose morphed into a colossal sword.
Up ahead she could see Hiei standing off with Oukan. Hiei summoned the
Dragon of the Darkness Flame, but the Oukan dodged it.

Suddenly Oukan turned towards the forest and....
To Be Continued...
Rai-sorry for the cliffy.
