Chapter # 9 – Kurama's Rage and Hiei's Payback
This is it, I guess…For Team Urameshi to fight back against Yakumo, Kaiki as Kuronue, and Ringo to save the Human World, as well as the Spirit World, rescue Botan, and get the Power Sphere before it's use for evil to make a new Nether World to killing everyone else. As Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, Ami, Hiei, and Hinageshi joins in to make a move from crossing the bridge and into the city they go 'while Genkai, Kayko, and Yukina stayed put to wish them all good luck'; for the street lights to go haywire all over town, the strong fog moves in from a building out of nowhere and into the street, and the waters to go off all over to know that one of Yakumo's henchmen was somewhere at the warehouse area for the other six to rush over there to stopping him first. At first, there was nothing for Hinageshi to not sense anything.
"Nothing's here."
"I doubt it." Said Kurama. "It does matter now, he's here."
Ami already knew what Kurama met to feel out both Kuronue and Kaiki to be around the area they were in right now.
"Kurama, you don't mean…" she guessed right. "(If Kuronue's here, then so is that other demon. Good, we can get back at those two right here and now.)"
"It is, Ami."
With a long hook shot from a boomerang type of weapon to come flying out to be close to the others to see that, and then the fog to get much thicker for Kuronue to appear.
"You're right, Kurama, both you and your human girlfriend." Said the fake Kuronue to appear.
"Kuronue."
Kurama and Ami were both right. For this was new as Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Hinageshi to hear about this.
"You know this jack ass, Kurama?" ask Yusuke.
"Well, Yusuke, let just say that this is Kurama's old friend who was supposed to be dead. But…he's alive as you guys can plainly see. For some reason, he blames Kurama on something he can't remember of killing him to escape, I doubt it!" Ami explains. "I mean, something else is up to mess with him to try hurting me."
Kurama answers the rest for Yusuke next.
"Ami's right, he was once a partner of mine from back then when I was Yoko." He goes into battle once again. "I'll take him on. And Ami, you cover me. We can do this, remember?"
Ami was ready to give it her all to watch out for her back too.
"Okay, Kurama, be careful."
Here goes into battle against Kuronue the best he could as Ami join in too. Round two, I see. For Kuronue to jump on top of a crane to be ready to fight with both Kurama and Ami.
"Kurama…You say that you're still against me?" he mocks him. "And for you to fall for a half breed human girl like her, a shame really. Such a shame."
"They were partners?" Kuwabara was lost. "Kurama's not himself today, huh?"
Beats us…it was time to fight for Kuronue to jump into the lower grounds of the fog.
"Let's go, Kurama!"
He waits for them, for both Kurama and Ami take an elevator together to head to battle to end. And down they go…for no one else can do anything about it now.
"Wait, Kurama! Ami!" cried out Yusuke.
He, Hinageshi, Hiei, and Kuwabara run over to the scene to watch for they can't do nothing but see the whole thing. Once the elevator goes down for Kurama and Ami to stay close to go within the fog to try to sense out Kuronue to put an end to; as they walk to hear something swinging back and forth from Kuronue's weapon to come swinging around closer and closer to them. But where was the demon hiding? Hard to tell, do those two better be ready for anything.
"(A special fog to hide both that person and their Spirit Energy to make a type of sneak attack.)" Ami knows of this attack. "(This is bad. One wrong move, and it'll be game over for the two of us and our friends. We have to stop the undead demon for good!)" she gets ready. "Kurama! Get ready!"
I hope so too! As they look around awaiting from any type of move to come for Kurama and Ami, they hear a boat passing by within the waters as Kuronue swings his necklace around again within the shadows where he was hiding.
"You make me sick to my stomach." Kuronue said within the fog.
From coming out of the fog for Kuronue to finally showing himself at the two surprises to be behind them. The bad demon gets his necklace back in his hands to be ready to fight.
"Back then, Kurama, you have left me to die. And now…you're about to destroy our dreams, my old dear friend. Take…this!"
Throwing his weapon at Kurama, to make back flip in time and Ami to shielding it with her Reikai skills in time. Nice one! Kurama then tries talking some since to his old dead friend, well if it was really Kuronue.
"Kuronue, listen to me." Kurama tries explaining. "Though I did leave you to die back then…But please believe in me, I…I did try to save you…I did."
"Be quiet!"
Kuronue again throw two more of his weapons at Kurama to move away in time as Ami stops the other using his arm blades to push the rest down, it was too powerful there! A few more comes at the two, getting to Ami almost 'to having some of hair cut off' for Kurama to dance together in the air to land safely. Only…that move open up Kurama's wounds to be bleeding from his chest again.
"No, Kurama!" Ami panics. "Oh, no. You're bleeding again."
Trying to heal Kurama as fast as Ami can do with her healing powers, though he wanted his girlfriend to be fine than himself.
"Don't…Ami…save your energy."
For the other four to worry about their other friend down there fighting for their lives, this was bad.
"Kurama! Ami!" Kuwabara was upset. "This is stupid…! We can do something if it wasn't for this fog. That cheater!"
True, but for Hiei to know of Kurama and Ami's love for each other, and for his friend to do fine while fighting.
"This is Kurama's fight now. And that girl since she wanted to help him out. This is his demons he must face alone if he must."
Hiei might be right…For the other three to say 'What?' and such to leave it like that. As Kuronue sends out another attack and Ami to make her Reikai into a staff to bouncing it off, Kurama does the rest to jump, talk to his old friend, and use his Rose Whip to save himself.
"(It's too strong…!) Heads up, Kurama!" Ami tells her boyfriend in time.
"Kuronue, please stop this!" he dodges the weapon to blocking it. "Rose Whip!"
It does work, only…Kurama falls on his knees to still feel too weak to fight, for Kuronue to laugh at him. Ami stands by her boyfriend side to protect him.
"What's the matter?" Kuronue mocks Kurama. "You're too weak to fight back from the looks of it."
Kurama was down! For Ami to use her Hundred Rending Kicks moves and Hawk's Talon Kick moves on Kuronue to block it all using his weapon to push her down to still be standing. Now what…?
"Kurama!" Ami panics.
"Kuronue…! What you're doing to me…to us…is wrong." He said.
This made Kuronue mad now.
"Is wrong, you say? I'll show you what's wrong, is you, Kurama! It was always you!"
Kuronue gets his weapon back to attacking again at the two, for Ami to feel something out of someone else's energy from her attacker to be like the demon they were fighting with right now. Kaiki's Spirit Energy I bet…For Kurama kept on believing that his old dead friend was really trying to kill him.
"You have to stop this, Kuronue!" he begged of the fake Kuronue.
Incoming from above.
"(Something's off…)" Ami snaps out of it quickly to want her boyfriend. "Kurama, above you!"
"Would you shut up?!" he uses his weapon to cut Kurama down again.
This was bad here! Kurama was hit and tries to cut down Ami too to use her shield of Reikai to be broken in seconds! To cut her hands to save her other leg in time. Bleeding badly, but lucky to not have her hands chop off.
"No, Ami!" Kurama panics.
"I'm…fine…Kurama…" she hangs in there. "This isn't as bad as the stabbing to the leg…" Ami knows that something was up with Kuronue. "(Okay, now I know that this isn't Kuronue…I don't know why, but I got a feeling…)"
Well, hurry up and figure it out now before Kuronue 'or rather Kaiki' finishes you both!
"You don't remember your past, do you Kurama?" Kuronue approaches to the two lovers to swing his necklace around. "You left me to die…" swinging his weapon to confuse Kurama from above and around him and Ami to keep calling Kurama a traitor repeatedly. "You're a traitor. Traitor. Traitor. Traitor. Traitor."
It never ends huh? Ami knows that something was up for Kurama to keep staring at Kuronue's necklace…As the other four were still standing from up top to try seeing the battle from below. For Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Hinageshi kept on hearing a strange noise all around the area.
"Do you guys hear something? Or is it just me?" ask Kuwabara.
Well, they do…For Hiei knows where the sound was coming from to throw his sword to that direction to cut something down to fall and for them to see what it was. One of Kuronue's boomerang-like blade weapons, was swinging back and forth to make that odd sound? Hmm…
"Just as I thought." He said.
"What is that?" ask Yusuke.
Yeah, Hiei, what is that? It is a weapon, right?
"This demon uses these things to cause a powerful sound waves to echo from one area to another. With them, he can create any screw up illusions to feel and sound real to his enemies."
That would make sense to be happening to Kurama a lot, but not as much as Ami.
"So, Kurama's being tricked?" questioned Hinageshi.
I guess so…Because Ami found out about something to almost getting cut to shreds again. For Kurama to shield her with his body to get hit.
"Kurama!" Ami was worried. "Stop! You'll die if you keep on doing this!"
"Ami…Run! Get away…!"
"No! I won't leave you hear! Listen, Kurama, this undead friend of yours isn't your old friend."
For Kurama was lost for Ami to try to tell him something very important, Kuronue was about to finish him off with Ami too.
"Now, you can die with your dark past to pay for everything you've done to me. But you won't go alone, I'll send this girl to join you." He said. "Isn't that nice of me?"
Kuronue kept on swinging his necklace to laugh at the injured Kurama.
"But I-!"
Noting that Kurama says now will do anything now.
"What's the matter? You want to try to kill me again like before?" Kuronue questions Kurama. "All this to save yourself and your so call girlfriend?" he kept on laughing.
"Kurama, listen to me." Ami tries to tell Kurama. "If we trust in each other to love one another, then listen to me. Kuronue…you must remember the real him that you might remember that he would never do this to you as a vengeful ghost."
Kurama tries to get back up with Ami's help.
"(Kuronue…you're wrong. Back then, you necklace…)"
Kuronue gets his necklace back to finish the job now.
"With this weapon of mine, I will end you two once and for all." He then throws his necklace at them.
"Kurama, think harder!"
For Ami to say that, something did get Kurama's attention to see Kuronue's necklace to throw down and to remember something from it.
"Huh? What's this?" he was surprised.
From the necklace being thrown, Kurama starts to remember…From the day for him as Yoko and Kuronue try to escape the castle with the treasure from the angry army of demon guard chasing after them…Kuronue loses his necklace off his neck to go after it, for it was part of his treasure to wear forever.
Yoko: No! Come back, Kuronue!
Trying to warn his friend, it was too late to stop him. He gets killed to have his treasure back to die for it in the end, Kuronue tells Kurama to run away to give up his life for his friend. The real Kuronue said that!
Kuronue: Forget about me, Kurama…! Get away now!
And that's what really happened, the real Kuronue was gone. And this faker being Kaiki was hurting Kurama to killing him and for Ami to see that now.
"(Ah! Kurama's done it!)" she was happy to see.
And hurry, the faker's about to strike back!
"Now…time for you two to die."
For the fog to surround both Ami and Kurama to hold hands as Ami powers up, Kurama pulls that bamboo tree piece out of his hair to use something on the faker, while praying for the real Kuronue to aid them both.
"Ami, get ready to attack. (And thank you for showing me the truth.)" he prays for his friend. "Please, Kuronue, help us win."
Standing still for the two within seconds to hear the swinging sound, down comes the faker Kuronue to strike at them…
"Say goodbye-!"
Ami does a front flip to come flying down on Kuronue with her move to use against the faker to strike back first 'and in her demon form'.
"Spinning Bird Kick!" she said. "Direct hit!"
Nice move! It makes Kuronue to lose his guard, allowing Kurama to quickly strike back to stab the demon in the heart with his new plant like attack of his.
"Ah…!" the demon was in pain. "Why you, rotten soul!"
"No, the one with the rotten soul of them all…is you! You're not my old friend, Kuronue!" Kurama removes the weapon put of the demon's chest. "Reveal yourself now!"
With the Kuronue look fading away, Kaiki finally shows his true looks. As Ami remembers seeing him to being knocked out cold by his doing, she knows that Kuronue and him were the same person after all. And thanks to her, she saved Kurama's life in time.
"So, you're the one behind it all!" Ami said to be grossed out. "And you kiss me, you bastard! You're mess up!"
With Kaiki in pain, he wanted to know about his trick to be good to be a down fall for him to ask Kurama about it.
"How did you know I wasn't your old friend?" ask the bad demon.
Here's your answers from Kurama and Ami to answer for Kaiki…
"I knew…from Kuronue to carry his necklace with him at all times. He would never throw it away like some trash. And most importantly, he would never attack an enemy from the rear!"
"Yeah! Also, I felt something when you knock me out cold after fighting with Eva. Shouldn't touch me because I can feel the same Spirit Energy from your disguised. So, I win." Ami moves aside to let her boyfriend have the last hit. "Okay, Kurama, finish him off!"
For Kurama to power up to give Kaiki a beat down payback after he try to fool with Kurama and Ami to get this fox demon mad. Well, no more! Kaiki uses his weapon to stop Kurama from walking up to him, and misses to be scared now.
"The real Kuronue risked his life by telling me to run away." Kurama continues to walk up at the enemy. "You mess with my memories of our friendship, and…you kiss my Ami right in front of me!"
With Kurama power up some more to letting out a big scream to punch the ground to release his new attack at Kaiki, the Bamboo Forest. Firing out lots of sharp bamboo branches to come popping out of the ground, to stab Kaiki hard to die from it, the rest as well, and the fog to finally fading away for the other four to see at last…Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Hinageshi see a new attack of a bamboo forest being made.
"Bamboo?" Kuwabara sees it.
And once last scream from Kaiki, he was gone and turned into a forest now. Damn! Lots of leaves were blowing down right now after that battle. It was over at least for Kurama got to fight back in the end and Ami to hug her man.
"Kurama, we did it!"
"Ami, thank you. If it wasn't for you seeing the truth, then-!"
Ami kisses Kurama on the lips.
"It's nothing really. I'm glad to help out." She said to see Hiei was standing next to them now. "Hey, Hiei. We won!"
He could see that for himself.
"So, I notice." He said back. "For someone who's calm can sometimes lose his temper. That's rare."
Although it was a sweet victory, Kurama still felt bad that he saw Kuronue die to make his escape to save his friend if he could to lease the treasure behind.
"If only…I would've saved Kuronue from back then, I wouldn't be this upset." Said Kurama.
"Hey now, he chose to save you, Kurama." Ami tells her boyfriend that. "It was Kaiki's fault to hurt you, that wasn't your friend. And I'm glad too. Guess the real him helped us afterwards, in spirit. I could tell."
Maybe…Kuronue image to have Kurama just thinking about his old friend will never be forgotten, the real one that he was that is. And then Hiei says this to his friend too like Ami did.
"Kurama…Look, it's hard to carry the scars left within our hearts. Both you and I." he walks away to say this last part. "If that was the real Kuronue, he would've been nothing more than a cold-hearted demon."
Good point, Hiei, you can say that again. Ami was surprise to hear Hiei say that to make Kurama feel a bit better now.
"Hiei… (You don't have to tell us twice.)"
With Hiei walking off to continue to head towards Yakumo's location, for the other three to see the whole thing too…For Hinageshi, Kuwabara, and Yusuke all smiled to see that both Kurama and Ami were fine to continue to fight on; even for Ami to heal up Kurama in time while still staying in her demon form as long as she could hold up for a while'.
"Let's go, you love birds." Yusuke said.
"Right." Kurama said back to hold Ami's hand. "Let's go, Ami, we still have a mission to accomplish."
Ami nodded a big yes there for all of them to keep on going. More to do for Ringo and Yakumo must be stopped next and fast! For two lovers to beat a faker being a demon, but in the end stopping Kaiki, the real Kuronue will be missed. Rest in peace, dude…And now, to the next area Team Urameshi to go!
