Chapter Eleven: The Asakura Way!
Yusuke was about to release his spirit gun at the Dr. Ichigaki team when Genkai suddenly appeared next to him and stopped him. Once they landed Genkai told him she would take care of the rest.
'Master, What is your plan?' Ceraza asked herself, while watching the match curiously. She looked back down at Kuwabara who was trying to sit up.
"Take it easy Idiot, you need to rest."
"Don't let them-"
"They are going to do everything they can all right?"
"T-that doctor..Don't let him leave!" Ceraza looked over at Hiei and Kurama then back to Kuwabara.
"Don't worry. I promise you I'll destroy him."
"Hahahahah! None of you have the stomach to kill them! Your only option is to give in to defeat and hand over my two bodies Hehehehe!"
"The masked fighter is chanting now! Lets hope its a final prayer for the men she's about to kill!"
'So, that was your plan? Impressive and creative master. You never fail to impress.'
"While the masked fighters hands are tied, Dr. Ichigaki team is charging straight for her!"
It all happened so fast, the beams of light, the energy dome and then...nothing. Genkai had managed to destroy each organ that was controlling the tree of them and save their lives.
"There's nothing left of them.." Hiei stated.
"Yes, an immense attack.." Kurama replied, neither of them taking their eyes from the ring. Ceraza smirked knowingly at her team mates.
Soon enough Koto began counting down.
"TEN! And Team Uremeshi is the winner! I suggest you all buy some water because your going to be screaming like that for a while if these victories keep up!"
"Shut up Fox girl that was no victory!" Yusuke shouted at her rather annoyed. Ceraza looked down at Kuwabara who again was attempting to sit up.
"No, it's all a shame! We're suppose to be the good guys! I should have saved them!" Ceraza clenched her fists and looked over at Dr. Ichigaki.
"I'll be right back. Boton look after Kuwabara for me"
Ceraza jumped up onto the arena and walked next to Yusuke as they made their way towards the doctor.
"Hey! Asshole!" Yusuke called.
"You know you're not getting away from this right?" Ceraza asked, the doctor began to back up but Kurama and Hiei we're behind him. He began to get nervous and fear was in his eyes.
"Don't embarrass yourself." Hiei spoke with his hands in his pockets.
"Acknowledge your cruelty and you're punishment will be swift" Kurama added.
"Speak for yourself. This guy killed innocent people, threatened to kill my friends and to use my body to experiment. This bastard will be begging for death before the end!" Ceraza growled fiercely, and no one was against it either.
"Hold on! What if I told you their master was still alive? And that I am the only person who knows where he is at and how to reverse his disease." The doctor cried.
"Then I'd say you're lying" Ceraza pointed out that the master was in fact alive and was in the very stadium not 10 feet away.
"You evil man" The master said with hatred.
"What? But how did he get here?"
"Your assistance was in the mood to talk" Hiei answered while remembering the scene.
"His memory improved quickly, we only had to walk 2 miles to find him...after that, Kurama was easily able to create an antidote and Ceraza was able to give him some of her energy to heal quicker."
The doctor once again began to back away.
"We also found some poisonous herbs as well, didn't we Kurama?" Ceraza asked with a smirk.
"Ah yes. Care to try some Doctor?" Kurama asked with a serious face.
"No need for that Kurama...You ready to die!" Yusuke shouted to the troll.
"Heh!" The doctor placed his hand in his pocket and pulled out a needle with a purple substance inside it.
"You pathetic little minds, did you not think I would experiment with body manipulation and not seize some for myself?" He laughed then injected himself with the substance in his arm. Soon enough he began changing, his energy sky rocketed and his body formed a lot larger then what it originally was.
Ceraza and Yusuke looked up at the large monster and backed away a little to prepare themselves for anything it would do. Dr. Ichigaki looked down at them and began to laugh but his high and whinny voice had changed into a deep and menacing one.
"Let me show you my modifications!"
His arm stretched out and attacked Yusuke and so he dodged the attack while Ceraza stayed where she way. The other arm went for Kurama and Hiei and so they also dodged the attack and jumped on the arena next to Yusuke.
"Why don't I show you why they call me the Crimson Blade?"
Ceraza drew her sword out in front of her and concentrated her energy into his, soon it began to glow. She pulled her arm all the way back ready to swing the sword and jumped up into the air.
"Celestial Slash!"
She pulled her arm forward sending a giant wave of energy towards the mutated . Once the energy made contact with his arm a large explosion happened making smoke appear around them. The doctor yelled out in pain with a roar.
"Ladies and Gentlemen we have just witnessed the famous Crimson blade preform her signature attack and boy is it powerful!" Koto announced attempting to look through the smoke, as the smoke cleared everyone could see that now the doctor only had one arm, and that his right arm had been blown of completely. He stood there panting and grunting in pain. Hiei smirked at Cerazas attack, it was impressive and it only made him want to fight her himself. But it seemed as though everything she done lately, drove him crazy.
"You little bitch! I'll kill you!" Shouted the doctor in anger, Ceraza just taunted the beast more.
"Bring it on big boy"
Somehow began to laugh and his arm began to regenerate
"No way! How in the hell is that fair!" Yusuke shouted annoyed.
'Onna! Get outta there!' Hieis voice rang throughout Cerazas mind. She snapped into reality in time to dodge his arm by back flipping away, as she landed Hiei suddenly appeared in front of her with his sword drawn. Glaring at the demon in front of him, Yusuke made his way over to the two.
"Hiei wait! We got dibs on this guy, Right Ceraza?" Yusuke asked her with determination.
"Right. If he wants our bodies he can come get us himself"
"Wow! It looks like the team leader only wants Cerazas help in this battle and has asked Hiei to back off! Can the two of them really win this alone?" Koto asked. Hiei looked back at his two team mates and smirked.
"Just don't get killed."
Ceraza and Yusuke nodded with a grin while Hiei started to back off. Dr. Ichigaki started to laugh once again,
"Go ahead then! Defy all logic!" His arms cut through the air with incredible speed again and again, attack Ceraza and Yusuke over and over. But as both arms shot into the ground, missing them both, they each took hold of one arm.
"What's this?" The large demon yelled in surprise. Ceraza and Yusuke started charging up spirit energy while their grip on each arm tightened.
"NOW!" Yusuke shouted.
They both pulled forward Dr. Ichigaki and so pulled him off balance, while he was falling forward, Yusuke and Ceraza ran under him and jumped up, landing numerous punches and kicks to his chest.
"That was for the tree innocent lives you stole!" They both yelled in unison as they landed, they watched at the demon fell backwards from their attacks.
"And this ones for screwing with their master!" Ceraza shouted, she jumped towards him and placed a powerful kick to his head, twist its head unnaturally.
"And this is for my friend who felt sorry for them and got his ass kicked!" Yusuke added while punching the opposite side of his face, twisting his head back around.
"And the last ones from us! Just for pissing us off!" They both once again shouted together, placing spirit energy into their fists they both upper cutting the large demon with extreme force and anger, knocking him off his feet and into the air. Ceraza twisted her body to land a round house kick to Dr. Ichigaki and sent him into the arena stands where the body created a large crater.
"Now you go think about what you've done doctor Ichigaki!" Yusuke spoke, as though scolding a child. The crowd was dead silent.
"Woah..Can I just say..Woah? The doctor has been totally demolished by Yusuke and Cerazas powerful assault! The crowd is speechless" Ceraza walked over to the bodies of the three students that lay on the floor and looked down at them with sad eyes.
'What?..Wait a minute..'
"Save you're tears, the boys aren't dead." Genkai spoke to their master who had began to cry for the loss of his students.
"Are you kidding?" Yusuke asked, he turned around to face the three and Ceraza, Slowly one by one their eyes began to open as they sat up.
"I-I can move" The one named Kai spoke as he stood up.
"Hey fill me in! I can't see up there you know!" Kuwabara yelled, not being able to move his body much just yet from the previous attacks. The master made his way towards his students.
"Where really alive! And in complete control!" Kai announced to his team mates happily.
"But I don't understand, a few minutes ago their spirit energy was completely gone" Yusuke stuttered in surprise while watching the scene.
"I never thought Id see you" Their master spoke as he walked towards them, but the three turned away.
"Why do you turn?" He asked them
"We committed horrible sins master I can't even rememeber all the people I have..
"the lessons that you taught us didn;t mean anything, we are a disgrace to your dojo
"please just leave us master we cant bare to look at you now
"Damn it! Why couldn't she have just killed us?
"How can you say such things?" Ceraza shouted from the side, They each turned to look at her, surprised by her out burst.
"You're guilt is misplaced, the move that was used is called Spirit wave. Its power is purely based on YOUR energy. If your heart is evil, it would destroy you but if you have a pure soul and heart you would be saved. It was your soul that freed you, that proves that you have nothing to hide." Ceraza spoke softly looking directly at them. By now everyone had turned to listen to her speech.
"Yen, Ryo, Kai...She speaks the truth, I know if you could have prevents those kills you would have. Your bodies where taken over but your souls are still clean I see you know the same way I always have." Finished the master.
The three students ran towards their master in joy, Ceraza smiled at this and er eyes glanced to Genkai.
Yusuke wiped his tears away,
"Well mystery lady that was some cool attack"
"You've done us well fighter." Kurama added.
After a few moments, Yusuke went to check on Kuwabara and Kurama and Boton helped him up to carry him away. Once again the crowd started to chant the words 'Kill Yusuke' and it was really starting to piss him off.
"May I have your attention please, the third round of the tournament will begin immediately"
"SAY WHAT? Give me a break!" Yusuke shouted furiously.
"Furthermore the matches will begin in the order of the match diagram starting from the left. Team Uremeshi and Team Masho please report to the ring "
"What? Again?" Hiei asked
"...Toguro..that asshole.." Ceraza mumbled. Yusuke ran straight towards Koto in anger and screams.
"Hey! Why don't you ask your stupid friends up there let one of the other teams fight!"
"I'm sorry sir! If you have a complaint you will have to take it up with the community! I'm sure there is a perfectly good reason for their decision!"
"Team Masho this is your final call, enter of be disqualified" Koto said, her voice echoing around the arena. Suddenly a small tornado appeared in front of the team and showed five hooded demons in robes.
"Why do I get the feeling this is going to be a tough one?" Yusuke asked no one in particular.
'Because Yusuke... they're not normal demons...they're shinobi...and also my friends..'
