Chapter Eleven: Chuu's Persuasive Ways.

Taylor's P.O.V

I did not have time to waste considering the circumstances that were at stake. I had thrown on a pair of jean shorts, along with a grey neck drape top that was form-fitting to my body. I didn't have time to do anything with my hair; I put it into a pony-tail, wiped away the access eye-liner from my eyes and grabbed all the things that I needed (for the teeth issue, I just got a lot of toothpaste on my finger and well… swished it around.)

Though, the only thing that I needed was my cell-phone so that's an easy thing. The problem I was truly experiencing was figuring out how I was going to get there quick enough, I mean I didn't exactly have super human speed. I ran out of the hotel room and didn't look back, I just felt like I was missing something important!

Running down the hotel hall there wasn't really anyone to avoid hitting, but I did have to find a way to make it quickly down to the lobby.

"Come on, hurry up!"

I said while punching in buttons to call the elevator. I was pacing for a bit before it dinged and opened up its doors, that's when I went in and pressed the lobby button. Why didn't I take the stairs? Well, because for one thing I was starting to already become tired, for some reason I couldn't hold up anymore like I use to when I was training with what little time I had.

Guess it was all those fries that I had afterward, me and Kuwabara would hang out, ever so often with Kurama but not with Hiei. Spending that much amount of time with someone who insults your intelligence and strength, you can only take so much. Dear God, this was taking forever though! For an updated elevator it sure was—Oh! It opened…

Getting off I didn't realize that there was someone there until I ran into them. "I'm so sorry!" I said but when I realized who it was I called out their name and hugged them.

"Oi Sheila, what's got you so clingy?" Thank God for Chuu, he's got to have some kind of connection to get me to the rink fast!

"I need help, and fast."

I said, letting go and looking down to see Rinku, his hands behind his back and huffed.

"How come I don't get a hello like that?" He asked, in normal situations I would have rolled my eyes and hugged them even harder, but this time I couldn't help but smile and lean down to give him the same hug.

"Happy?" I asked him while letting go, watching him blush and nod with a cheeky smile seem to give the O.K.

"Al'ight Sheila, what's this I hear about help?" Chuu asked, his Australian accent was heavy, and with him being so tall and intimidating and now leaning in my face for answer I started to freak.

"Uh, well, the fight! I need to get to the arena and quick!" I said, only a few seconds after did Chuu erupt in spontaneous laughter.

"Why didn't you say so, you crazy purple haired ninny!" He said while rubbing my head, completely messing up my already crappy pony-tail. I glared before swatting him away.

"Come on, seriously I need to get to the arena!"

"Don't get your knickers in a twist lady; we'll get you there in no time!" Rinku said while jumping once before grabbing my hand and running off.

"Wait, where are you taking me?" I would soon come to find out just that.

Later.

"You know, stealing really was my last option."

I mumbled from the driver's seat in this little caddie. You'd think that this place would have some kind of shuttle system available, but no they don't. In fact, thanks to Chuu and Rinku's persuasive technique, we probably won't have to worry about ever not having transportation again.

"Oi, I bet you wouldn't be complanin' if you were left back at the hotel eh?" Chuu questioned, causing me to grumble as we sped through the forest.

"Yeah, besides this is a lot faster than running! Give us some credit here!" Rinku interrupted from the back seat of the caddie, I waved a finger at him before responding.

"Seat belt, you're still a minor!" I said my motherly voice that usually is never shown to anyone, was coming through.

"I'm not a minor; I'm older than you if your age was combined with Yusuke and the others!" I almost hit the brake when I heard that. "How old are you?"

"Around two-hundred years, why?" I went bug-eyed again before shaking my head.

"Never-mind, it's not important."

I said while trying to keep my concentration on the mixed up trail. You see, my aunt Heather was the one who actually taught me most of my driving skills—

"Gah!"

Of course, most of my bad driving skills came from my mother.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry!" I was a nervous wreck now; I mean I'd thought it'd be easy to drive without signals or without speed-signs but apparently it just made things a bit more complicated.

"Turn left!" I reared to the left kind of sharp, but regain my composure and calm before continuing.

"How much further?" I called out, trying to avoid much of the branches that would ever so often hit the caddie. It wasn't even a golf caddie like I would have wanted, oh no, it was colored black and yellow which only made us stick out more like an overly large bumble-bee.

Stupid human, demon fighting obsessed, freaks that don't know how to create good looking automobiles.

"Not long now Sheila, about another five minutes!" Chuu said while putting the death grip to the side of the passenger seat.

"Well let's cut that time, shall we?" I said while shifting gear and then speeding up the caddie.

Chuu and Rinku yelled out from the sudden increase in speed, I couldn't help but laugh at them because of their faces. Good thing the path line was bit more straight, or else if any sharp turns or else we'd probably die… Yeah, let's not think about that.

"I see it!"

Oh yes, I could finally see the arena! Coming out from the thicket part, the demons that couldn't get inside of the arena to watch the fight departed like the red sea. Coming to a stop, Rinku flew up ward and over the caddie's back seat.

"Thank you guys so much, I owe you!" I said while taking off my seat belt and jumping out of the caddie, racing out of the stunned crowd to the ticket taker.

"No ticket, no en—"

"Yeah, yeah, just give me a minute will ya?" I said while looking through my pockets… But no ticket was there.

"Oh no," I said while searching my back pockets, still no ticket.

"No, no, no—OH come ON!" I knew I had forgotten something at the hotel!

"No ticket, no entrance." The brute ticket taker said while bringing out a huge malice with spikes all around the body.

My eyes went huge as I backed up a bit, though felt someone behind me and looked to see Chuu with Rinku on his shoulder.

"Do we have a problem here, Sheila?" Chuu asked in a low yet threatening voice, looking intensely to the ticket taker as he suddenly looked terrified.

"He won't let me in, I forgot my ticket…"

Taking this moment to ramp up my innocent look with some pouting and puppy-dog eyes, I looked back to Chuu who smirked and chuckled before breaking out into a heroic pose.

"Well then we'll just have to take care of that wont we!" He said while charging at the ticket taker, though Rinku fell off and thanks to yours truly, he managed to land a bit better.

I winced and turned away from Chuu's persuasive ways, cringing a bit before it ended and I turned around.

"Thatta take care of ya! Now you,"

He said while pointing toward me

"go in and watch some good ass-kicking fun!" He commanded as I nodded.

"Yes, sir." I then gathered up all the strength I had and started to walk around the fight scene and then break out into a sprint.

I loved those two, they were really special. Now it was time to get serious and try to find a way to the ring quick. Thoughts of the fight could were replaying through my mind, the anime episodes seemed so real and I could predict the outcome of this fight.

Kurama in pain, only having to plant the death seed within side of him to save his life, it just seemed like this one fight… I could make the exception of stopping it and making sure Kurama wouldn't have to fight.

What could that do their lives though, I mean obviously Kurama wouldn't end up so… Beaten, Yusuke would have to fight Touya and considering the fact that both Kurama and Touya were matched in wits, things could get pretty ugly on our part.

Besides, Yusuke was suppose to fight Jin and Bakan, if Yusuke stopped Kurama from fighting and fought himself then against those three it just wouldn't be fair. He'd probably die in the attempt of the fight with Jin. Rounding the corner and trying to get past a couple of odd looking demons, I managed to find the light and run through.

I skidded while looking down at the scene before feeling my heart skip.

Kurama was standing still, graceful but still as Gama was hunched over bleeding purple blood.

"No, I-I can't let this happen." I breathed out, I started to go down the steps, stumbling but managing to keep some kind of pace.

I kept looking back and forth between the ring and my footing; it wasn't long before I reached the wall. I now watched as Kurama tried to avert any contact with Gama, the purple blood going everywhere on his white fighting outfit. I looked at the wall before back to the arena, grimacing before walking backwards up the stairs a bit.

"Hey, get out of the way, human!" I heard one demon say, trying to ignore them I took off and ran a few steps before raising my foot and stepping on the top part of the wall. I brought my other leg around and pushed off of the other foot, jumping from the wall to into the air.

I felt my stomach rise as I fell to the ground, landing not so perfectly on one foot and knee.

"Hey!" I looked over to the left to see Botan and Kuwabara, stunned at my random entrance.

"Can't talk, gotta help out!" I said while getting up and trying to brush away the pain in my body from all the running and jumping. I was about to call out to Yusuke, but my attention went to Kurama quickly as Gama fell to his final death.

"Well finally, you're like Hiei and Kurama you show up just in time to help out. Oh wait, you can't because Kurama's already fighting!" I glared over to Yusuke who only glared back.

"Well, excuse me I'll just leave and not tell you how to win this fight, Yusuke."

I said while clenching my teeth and sighing.

"…The death is yours…" I snapped my head to the arena, looking at the white shinobi with fear.

"What?" Kurama's voice was confused, but not for long.

"You… Never asked what gave me my make-up it's power… What made it different from the make-up in those human fools? The difference is main ingredient Kurama, the difference is my blood."

I tensed with concern as the purple liquid transformed and created a symbol on Kurama's chest.

"Are you serious?" Amber asked out loud, though it wasn't to anyone I was sure part of it was to me.

"I have given you… The make-up of the seal, it's what… I should've done from the start. I have sealed your spirit energy." I clenched my fist while shaking my head. I should have gotten here sooner; we could have found another way! I thought angrily to myself, thinking that I could not have woken up earlier.

That Akako is to blame for this as well.

"And so I know that I die not in vain…" With that, Gama's voice faltered when he laid his head down.

"Will the next fighters, please approach the ring." Koto's voice was calm yet excited for the events to come, as she spoke a dark cloaked figure stepped into the ring.

"No…"

"No, what do you mean no?" Amber asked while coming up beside me, her expression told me everything. Her concern, worry and frustration were hard to find at the current time though I don't blame her. I was starting to worry as well.

"It's Touya… Master of the Ice," I turned to Yusuke who was staring at me with confusion and who was also tense.

"Get him out of there, now." My voice wavered, darkening almost with the command.

Before anything could even be done, before I had even the slightest chance to interrupt, the cloaked figure had ripped off his cloak and reviled himself as none other than the one we were just talking about.

"Ewe, an ice-demon, I can already see the winner."

Did that really just come out of my mouth?

"Tell me," I looked over at Amber who still looked worried as could be. "

He makes it out alright… Right?"

I didn't want to lie to her.
