"Tournament Part 2"
Sakura's School- Tournament Infirmary-
The announcer told "Everyone, get some rest because since there is so much damage on the arena, we will have to fix it. Until all the repairs are done, feel free to relax. We will announce when the arena is ready for the competitors."
The gang met up with each other at the infirmary. Tohru looked at the wounds placed on all the fighters. Kisa and Tohru sat down next to their friends. Kyo was sitting down on the chair in the corner. He looked up and saw Tohru in front of him. She smiled at him and asked "Are you alright, Kyo-kun?" he looked at her for a minute feeling guilty.
"I'm alright. Thanks." He replied to her answer. He stood up and walked her to where Arisa and the others were at. Arisa was o the bed sleeping. Tohru looked at her for a while. Arisa was covered with bandages and bruises. It made Tohru feel bad since she saw her best friend suffer in battle.
Tohru walked up to Arisa and said "You did well, Uo-chan. Please get better." She turned around to see Hana-chan sitting down. "You did well too, Hana-chan!" Tohru said as she smiled at her other best friend.
Next to where Arisa and Saki were at, Kusanagi was sleeping on the bed. She was facing the window. Achika and Ichigo were sitting down looking at their friend sleep. "I hope she is okay." Achika said sadly. Tear pools were forming in her eyes.
"For a little tenth grader, she fought pretty well. That's our little mouse… I guess all that training with Sa-chan and Kyoko-sensei was worth it." Ichigo said as she smiled at Kusanagi. Tohru saw the tears over flowing form the tear pools in their eyes. She placed her hand on Ichigo's shoulder. She smiled at her and Ichigo saw that it meant that she will be fine. She smiled back at Tohru. Kisa walked in and pulled a little on Tohru's shirt.
"What's wrong, Kisa-chan?" Tohru asked Kisa. Kisa looked up at Tohru. "We can't find Sakura-chan, Momiji-kun, Kyo-kun, or Yuki-kun." She told her. They went to search for them in the infirmary.

Sakura's School- Outside the Infirmary-
The four teenagers were standing outside with the breeze going through their hair. The evening sun was shining down on them. "So you're a shinigami, Tsuki-san?" Yuki asked her. Sakura faced the three boys and smiled.
"Yeah but I've only been a shinigami for two years. I only remember the day that Kyoko and I became a shinigami together." Sakura told the three boys looking at the evening sky. Momiji, Kyo, and Yuki looked at her. "Do you remember how you died in the first place?" Momiji asked her in a calm voice. Sakura nodded a no and smiled. "Can ya at least try to remember at all?" Kyo asked her.
"If I remember, I'll become a ghost. But I did hear that there was a website to find out what happened to those who've died. The address that I was coming out of when I saw Kyoko and the grim reaper was at 620 Sakura Lane. That's the only thing that I can remember right now." Sakura said to the boys.
"When I died, I found a little black book in front of me. When I opened it, two names where scratched out. The names where Kyoko Honda and Asuna Sakura Tsuki. In the bottom of the page, it said to choose a name. I looked around and found the street name. I looked at the name of the person who died and said Sakura Tsuki. A burst of light came out of nowhere. That was all I can remember." Sakura told her story to boys as tears come down her cheeks.
Kyo, Yuki, and Momiji looked at Sakura and they felt bad about the fact that Sakura had to say something that she didn't have to say. "We're sorry you had to say something that was painful for you. If we found out why you died, would you still become a ghost?" Momiji asked Sakura. She looked at him and smiled.
She nodded a no but her eyes had said a yes. "I shouldn't let them carry my burdens. But until the day that I see my father again, I will defeat him and I will become human again. You'll help me too right, Kyoko?" Sakura asked Kyoko in her mind.
"Of course I'll help. You're not the only one who wants to become human!" Kyoko said laughing.
The announcement speaker turned on and said 'The arena for the tournament is now complete. All those who are in the tournament must report back to the arena before 7:30 pm. Thank you!" and it turned right off.
"I guess we should head back in. and I have to get on to the arena for my match now." Yuki suggested to the little group. The group waved their good-byes and went their separate ways.

Sakura's School- Tournament Arena- 7:30 pm
Battle 8-
Tohru, Momiji, Kisa, and Hiro went back to their seats and saw Yuki on the arena. They cheered him on and Yuki looked at them. He gave them a smile which meant thanks to them.
Yuki Sohma verses Miles Gohan was taking place. As a matter of fact, Yuki won this match within a good three minutes. You want to know how? Well, Yuki just gave Miles a punch in the face which led Miles to the water. Miles stopped himself from falling in but he wasn't able to see Yuki come in towards him.
Yuki kicked Miles and that made Miles go into the water without a second thought. The announcer just stared at Yuki for a while. Of course the announcer was a female, so what happens when a female sees Yuki, they get all lovey-dovey. The announcer blushed and then burst out "THE WINNER IS YUKI SOHMA! OH MY GOD! YOU'RE SO CUTE!" The crowd and Yuki just looked at the announcer like she was crazy. Yuki just turned around and walked away in a hurry.
Battle 9-
Saki was going to fight Ichigo now. "How am I going to fight you if I can't use my powers, Ichigo-san?" Hana-chan asked Ichigo. "You don't because if you do, you're going to get hurt. Just quit while you have the chance, Hana-chan." Ichigo said smiling at her. Ichigo's long, red hair and Saki's green hair was flying around in the evening breeze.
Hana-chan raised her hand and then said to the whole world "I forfeit." She walked off as if everything was okay. The announcer looked at the two and said "Uh…the winner of this match is…uh…Ichigo Sengaru." Ichigo ran up to Saki and asked her "would like to get some odango?"
Saki looked at her and smiled. "Thank you very much, Ichigo-san." Saki answered to Ichigo's offer. The two girls walked away and went to buy some odangos. The whole crowd just stared at the two as they both exited the arena to buy some odangos. The whole crowd had water drops coming down their heads. "We are in a school festival and the only thing those two are here for are for food." Kyo said in an irritated voice. "It's better than being stupid." Yuki told Kyo in scrastatic voice. "WHY YOU STUPID RAT! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Kyo shouted out loud.
Battle 10-
Kusanagi and Kyo's battle was going to take place. But Kusanagi was still in no condition to fight. Hatsuharu was watching over her while she was being healed. The announcer said that since Kusanagi was unable to fight, the winner of the match was going to be Kyo. Kyo just walked away and saw Yuki smirk. "I'm going to kick you dumb (BEEP!), you (BEEP!)." he said as he passed by Yuki and he smirked right back at him.
Battle 11-
Achika and Sakura walked together side-by-side. The crowd has gone wide and they all started to shout something out. "We want to see those two babes fight in costumes!" and "Yeah! Make them wear hot costumes!" The two girls looked at the announcer and the announcer just smiled at them.
"You both heard them! They want to see you ladies fight in costumes! So go get changed into the costumes that are waiting for you ladies in the changing room." Achika and Sakura blushed and they both obeyed their orders.
"What's going on?" Tohru asked in a wondering tone. "The men want to see them fight in costumes, so they went to go change." Momiji answered to Tohru's question. Tohru looked at the two girls walk into the changing room and sighed.

Changing Room-
"Are those the costumes they want to see us wear?" Sakura asked Achika. Achika and Sakura both stared at the costumes that were hanging on the hangers. Water drops came down their heads. "Oh yeah. Those are the costumes that they want to see us wear." Achika answered to Sakura's question.
There on the hangers were two different costumes. The first costume was a short maid's costume with rabbit ears and a fluffy tail. The maids' outfit was in dark blue and white. Right next to the costume were high heeled shoes with long socks and a broom.
The second costume was a ninja costume. The ninja costume had a pair of yellow shorts, a yellow tank top, black gloves, black boots, smoke bombs, and black cat ears with a black tail. "I'll go with this one…"Sakura told Achika as she grabbed the ninja costume.
"Yeah…I think I'll go with this one…"Achika said as she grabbed the maid's costume. The two changed into their costumes and then walked out of the changing room.

Sakura's School- Tournament Arena- 8:00 pm
As the two girls walked out of the changing room, the crowd got wild once more. "Onee-chan! Look down there!" Kisa told Tohru as she pointed at the two girls walking into the arena. "Oh my goodness…are those the costumes that the men wanted them to wear?" Tohru asked as her face turned red.
"Okay! Are you all satisfied now?! Great! Now let's get show on the road!" the announcer said as the crowd cheered. The battle then began. The two girls stared at each other as they had a small conversation.
"don't hold back, Sa-chan. I won't forgive you if you do!" Achika commanded Sakura with her eyes burning with anger. She took her stance with her broom next to her. The wind blew her brown hair and costume to the side.
"I won't but you better not hold back either." Sakura told Achika as she too took her stance. The battle took an hour to finish. (Author's Note: Sorry...I can't give ya the info about what happened. /just know that there was blood and broken bones. I'M SORRY!!!)
