AN: Well, after the little break, I am finally back to continue this story. Well, enjoy.
Chapter Six: One Man, Many Faces
An explosion rocked the mansion as the team made their way through the mansion. Once the tremors stopped rocking the castle, the seven teammates stopped and began to rest, and to also plan their next move.
"Well, nothing like a near death experience to get the blood pumping, right?" William joked.
"You have got to be kidding me." David said to his friend.
"Alright, now who do we have next?" Yusuke asked, cracking his knuckles.
"We don't know. We haven't been here before today, remember?" Michael called from a window sill.
"Great, more nasty surprises. This is going to be a really good day." Kuwabara moaned.
"Don't start, let's just keep moving." Michael said.
"Yes, we better, because even though we went through the first three warriors with little to no trouble, this is going to be really difficult from now on, I bet." Kurama said.
"You are right about that, because I feel multiple energies up ahead." Michael said.
"Great. This is going to be fun." Yusuke moaned.
"Heh, no problem. I am going to take the next challenge, no problem." Hiei said, no problem.
"Jesus." Michael moaned. "Hiei, I respect you abilities and power as a fighter, but you can be a little over confident, sometimes."
"And that is a problem?" Hiei asked.
"Yes, you midget." Michael all but shouted. Hiei began to walk in his direction, but David stepped in between them.
"The fight is with them, not each other." David said.
"Well, if you guys are finished fighting with each other, we need to go save the world, again." Yusuke said to his teammates.
"Yeah, let's go." David said, grabbing Michael, and all but pulled him towards the staircase. Kurama calmed down Hiei to the best of his own ability, and they were on their way as well, following their teammates as they made their ascent to face their next challenge...
"Well, here it is. The next door." Yusuke said, standing before a door with a number four painted on it in red.
"How do we get in?" Kuwabara asked.
"We open the door and walk in, of course." Yusuke said. Yusuke grabbed the handle, and when he realized that the big doors was unlocked, whipped them open wide, and found the area to be mountainous, really, really big, and surrounded by cliffs. Hiei, taking the lead, walked out into the middle of the area, and looked around. This was the area of the fight, but the team knew that this was not going to be easy.
"Greetings." A dark voice called from the darkness. Almost on cue, the lights came on, revealing a Demon dressed in a white cloak. His skin was green, and he had white flowing hair. He jumped down from his perch, and stood at least 20 feet away from Hiei.
"So, you seven think that you can stop what is going to happen to your precious planet?" He laughed.
"Who are you, slime ball?" Hiei demanded to know. The demon began to laugh again, as he ran a hand through his long white hair.
"Well, My name is Eusine." He said. "The thing that you have to know about me is that I have a knack with multiple personalities."
"Well, a demon with schizophrenia, this is going to be interesting." Yusuke said under his breath.
"I have heard of a guy like this." Michael said. A statement which got looks from his comrades.
"Really? Care to share with the rest of us?" Kuwabara asked.
"Well, in lament terms, he is pretty much five different people, with the same name, of course." Michael responded.
"Great, so he has to beat five people, doesn't he?" Yusuke asked Michael again.
"No, not really." Michael began. "If Hiei can kill the real Eusine, the rest will die."
"Great, just how in the hell is he supposed to do that?" Yusuke asked.
"That is the one thing that we have to rely on Hiei for." Michael said. "Don't worry, I know that Hiei will know what to do.
Yusuke nodded, just as the fight began to start...
Hiei looked around as various versions of the creature before him appeared various color's of Eusine with different sets of clothes on. Hiei knew that he was in for a fight the minute that they shown their faces.
The minute that Hiei dropped his cloak, and drawn his sword, the five demons pounced. Hiei was really against the wall now. He was frantically dodging punches and kicks, looking for a place to get a hit in.
"He's outnumbered, there is no way he can win this fight." Kurama said.
"All we can hope for is a Hail Mary." Michael said.
"That being?" Kuwabara asked.
"By blind luck, he manages to kill the one that is the real Eusine." David said.
"Well, Hiei is going to have to do that by pure luck, I guess." Yusuke said, as the fight continued.
Hiei was busy dodging multiple attacks from swords from the multiple Eusine's. Hiei thought that he had an opening to get an attack in, but the minute that he tried to attack, he found himself blind sided before he could raise a defense, being knocked back into a wall, and out of view of everyone.
"Crap, where is shorty?" Kuwabara asked, scanning the area for his teammate.
"I don't see him." Yusuke answered, also looking for the short demon.
"He's there, don't worry." David answered. Just when they were going to question whether or not Hiei was still alive, they got their answer. Out of nowhere, the dragon appeared, right in the sky, black as the darkest coal. The minute that the four of them saw that creature, they tried to run, but the dragon consumed them in a black fire like explosion that rocked the stadium. When the dust cleared, all that was left was a dark mark of Eusine, or what they hoped was Eusine, anyway.
"Well, nice job, Hiei." Yusuke said as the demon appeared in front of them.
"Yeah, you managed to hit them all with that attack. Now all we need is a dustpan to get them up. Who am I kidding? Let's leave the bums there and move on." Michael said.
"Yeah, well there is only three guys left. Let's go and get them." David said. The teammates nodded, and made their way towards the next challenge, which was going to be a familiar face.
AN: Kuwabara here. Well, we are getting down to the final three here, and things are going to be revealed. Koenma reveals why Michael is awake and fighting, and we fight a familiar face. I just hope that Urameshi is up to fight this guy again...
