In Which There is Much Cut Off Swearing
by YYHfan-KB
Bouncing along on the Oniguri's back Keiko wondered what chance they really had against these unknown enemies. Koenma had been vague he had said something along the lines of "These fan-girls are dangerous, and the ring leaders are pretty well hidden in the shadows. I honestly don't know who they are ladies, so be careful and trust no one." Keiko was concerned about Yusuke, he didn't always think straight and that was what had gotten them into this mess.
"Keiko," Shizuru's voice disturbed her thougts, "I don't know why but this thing's getting really nerv-" an explosion knocked them sideways off the Oniguri's back.
Groaning they picked themselves up off the ground, "What the bloody hell was that?" Shizuru spat out the blood and rice in her mouth cursing, "Shit-" As she raised her head she saw the boot just before it hit her.
"Damn it man," Yusuke sat grumbling as his stomach rumbled signaling he was getting hungry, "you'd think that chick could have at least given us some food or something. I haven't eaten in so long my stomach thinks I've forgotten it."
"Don't worry Yusuke, they probably won't starve us to death." Kurama looked like even he was unsure of this particular statement.
"Hn, I'd rather starve than touch anything they try to give me." Hiei scowled off into the corner he had finally given up on picking at the hole in the wall after being told by Kurama multiple times to knock it off.
"Hiei, can you see anything with the Jagan?" Kurama's low murmur was barely audible but Hiei understood him,
"No, I tried earlier."
"Damn."
Yusuke stood up abruptly, "Guys, look."
A doorway had opened in the wall leading down a dimly lit hallway, "Should we go through it?" Yusuke was already moving towards the door when Kuwabara grabbed his arm halting him.
"Wait, it could be a trap. One of us should go, and the rest should stay here just in case." Kuwabara spoke in undertones trying to keep the panic out of his voice, he was getting some nasty chills from that doorway.
"I doubt if they're gonna kill us now Kuwabara," Kurama ran a hand up his arm as he spoke feeling the goosebumps, "I mean they could have easily killed us while we slept."
"Fine, but I still say its not a good idea to go through that doorway." Kuwabara let go of Yusuke's arm stepping back, "I'm not going, I don't like it. There's something fishy going on here."
"Kuwabara may have a point but at the same time we can't afford to split up. If we get separated we may not survive."
Hiei stood up and crossed the small room to the doorway, "I'm going whether the rest of you damned fools do or not." stepping through Hiei dissappeared into the gloom.
"Damn that shrimp, he's gonna get killed!" Kuwabara threw his hands up in the air exasperated.
"Damn, we'd better go after him," Kurama sighed standing up to head for the door. As he started to walk towards the doorway it began to shrink rapidly forcing him to step backwards into Yusuke.
"Shi-"Yusuke fell with Kurama landing on top of him knocking the air out of his lungs. Picking themselves up Kurama apologized, "Sorry Yusuke." Giving his friend a hand up Kurama noticed a second doorway had opened behind Kuwabara.
"Kuwabara! Behind you!" Kurama yelled out just as a pair of arms grabbed Kuwabara dragging him into the blackness beyond the door.
"Holy SHI-" Yusuke's curse was cut off as he fell through the floor into another portal rapidly dissappearing from Kurama's view.
"Oh da-" another hole opened beneath his feet and sucked him in, just before losing conciousness he heard a shrill trill of laughter.
Genkai had been in some weird places before but this place took the cake, she had been wandering around for what seemed like forever in this giant labyrinth. The walls were too high to see the tops lost in the grey mist above and they were way too smooth offering no handholds to climb up.
She couldn't seem to use her reiki to blast through the walls either, "Damn fools, why did they have to go and get captured for anyways?" Genkai muttered to her self as she continued on in search of a possible exit.
"Genkai ba-san?" a soft voice reached her ears. Spinning around Genkai started to see Yukina standing by an opening in the maze, "Genkai ba-san, I'm so glad I found you!" Yukina rushed towards the older lady hugging her fiercely.
"Yukina? How did you get here?" Genkai was confused, Botan and Yukina hadn't come with them. In fact they had decided to split up into two teams so they could search more area.
"I don't know, one minute Botan and I were walking along in the woods and next thing I know I'm here." Yukina seemed ready to burst into tears.
"It's all right, everything's going to be fine." Genkai tried to calm the ice-maiden down by vaguely patting her on the back, "Let's keep moving ok? We may run into the others."
"Ok." together the two continued on through the maze trying to find the others.
In a small room with several screens showing different areas of their domain sat the six leaders, "Hmph, Sue-san do you honestly think that they pose that much of a threat?" Chasity gestured at the screen showing the women making their way through the labyrinth. She swirled slightly in her favorite pink dress pouting uncharacteristically.
"Aiyoku, everyone who wants whats our's is a threat. Whether or not they pose a big threat is determined by their strengths, and these women are inferior trash that don't stand a chance in the face of our power." Sue glared at Aiyoku getting her to shut up.
"Sue-san, why don't you let me handle them?" A voice came out of the darkness beside Sue's right ear causing her to twitch, she really wished Seadra didn't do that constantly.
"No Seadra darling, we need the women alive." Sue gestured at the screen again, "These women all play important roles, remember?"
"Damn, I'll just have to go find some more sake then." Seadra ambled out past Sue muttering under her breath.
In the corner of the room a quieter young woman with pure black hair sat deep in thought. Opening her startling blue eyes she pursed her lips, "Sue-san I believe now that all the boys are separated we should begin the final trials."
