Ch. 13
A/N: I would like to think Twisted Priestess for being with the story and being a huge support since the very beginning. And thanks to wielderofthe keyblade () or RandomGlompGirl on for writing the fight scenes, which I suck at!
Assistant Author's note: Slight Yaoi and it is my fault, you're welcome fan girls!
The next day all of the males went down to the fighting arena. The final 6 were in the center of the bowl shaped area and were standing several feet apart from each other. The final contestants were Lords Yuki, Kyo, Naraku, the final lord to arrive is Kygaromaru (also a Puma), then there is Duke Wykariu a snake and a young male called Euroichi (a lesser dog).
Kouga stood before the men and gave them their instructions "There will be three fights. The men will be put into groups of two. The way we will decide who goes first will be that I will pick a number between 1 and 100. The team that guesses the closes will go first and so on. The other two will wait on the sidelines and they will not be allowed to talk to each other or anything until it is their turn to fight. No one shall interfere. Now Kyo and Wykarui shall be the first to fight. Then Yuki and Naraku and finally Kygaromaru and Euroichi. Kyo, Wykarui you have an hour to prepare. Remember its just hand to hand combat. You can use claws and other such as long as they are a part of your body. The rest shall wait in separate rooms until it is their time to come. You will know by the sound of a gong. It's rather difficult to not miss it. Now Gentlemen good luck." With that very long speech over Kouga walked out of the fighting area and to a special area for him and the other lords' fathers. The other young men who lost were also in the stands and they were betting on who would win.
As Kyo and Wykarui got ready for the fight, both glaring at each with eyes, fiercely staring into tawny and emeralds; both judging, measuring, and trying to understand their opponent's first move. With a flurry and a flash of orange, Kyo attacked first, ferocity and power going into his first round-off kick. Wykarui merely dodged, and then turned and dragged razor sharp claws into the skin of his back. Kyo growled angrily, and then quickly attempted to do the same, but was caught off guard as his fingers hit toughened skin. He issued a rather demeaning curse about the skin of snake demons, finally remembering his lessons.
As their deadly dance continued, nails digging into skin, teeth finding flesh, blood weeping from wounds inflicted by the opponent. Both contenders sporting wounds both minor and serious, neither stopped both knowing the price of their defeat. Finally though, Wykarui saw an opening, a miniature one, but an opening nonetheless. With the speed of a thousand striking cobras, he went to land a clawed hand into Kyo's neck. He was suddenly stopped. Kyo, had a hand in his gut, slowly pulling it out and with a satisfied grin, pushed him to the ground.
"Game." The gathered crowd went nuts.
Next in the arena, after the unconscious body of Wykarui was removed, was Yuki and Naraku entered.
"Don't think I'm going to go easy on you." Naraku grinned challengly.
"Don't expect you too." Yuki grinned back, and then danced out of the way as Naraku went to land a fist into his gut. Yuki quickly countered grabbing the wrist, and pulling it down as he sent a foot into his face. Naraku turned on the heel of his foot, dropped to his haunches and dragged his foot across the floor, connecting with the ankles of the Tiger demon. The tiger demon looked like he was about to fall, but gave quite a show when he landed on his hands, did a flip, and caught the other demon off guard by landing not only one round-off kick to the face, but three in succession. There was a very muffled 'Not the face' from under the tiger's foot, but he was persistent as they began grappling at each other's face, keeping the other at bay as they barely dodged the fists trying to connect with their noses.
As the crowd watched eagerly, they didn't notice Yuki's tail moving with a mind of its own. Yuki finally landed a claw into the cheek of his opponent, and then his tail wrapped around his ankle and pulled his feet from underneath of him. Naraku landed with an undignified grunt on his back, and then a foot on his neck meant he had to submit.
Kygaromaru and Euroichi both stalked into the arena, a dog verses cat battle was sure to insure. No witty banter between them as they both lunged at each other. Claws flashed as they dug into flesh, a yelp or a hiss from both of them escaped on occasion as they fought fiercely, a rivalry even deeper then what was at stake. As both moved, it was evident to see that neither would win nor loose. But the dog got cocky, as Euroichi went to flip out of the way of one of the cat's claws; he was caught by Kygaromaru's tail, and fell flat on his back onto the ground, then as it brought him back within striking range as he dragged fierce claws down his chest, hitting major life-giving veins as he did. The dog scrapped at the cat's face, barely getting his jugular in his throat. Suddenly though, the cat got a little surprise as he felt lips brush across his own. He startled, and all went still as both stared at each other. Emerald confused ones staring into cocky confident golden ones.
"Are you two done?" A rather brash voice sounded above them. Both turned heads until they saw a rather annoyed Koga, crossed arms, foot tapping, and a very un-amused expression on his face.
"Maybe." The cat licked at one of the wounds on the dog's face.
"You both are disqualified, so GO GET A ROOM!!" They both got up, and walked from the arena, an awkward silence following them as the spectators watched the curious pair disappear into the castle.
Meanwhile
Kagome sat in her room with the other ladies and women. All of them keeping her company and to help each other through it all. They all winced in unison as they heard blasts and boos and the such. None of them had any idea what was going and who won or lost. Kagome sighed itching for the battle. Today she was dressed in a pale blue and white fighting kimono. She kept her eyes on the arena even though she knew she wouldn't know anything. Lady Kisa held her hand silently hoping that one of her sons would win and not some low class demon.
Back to the fight
"After these very…. Interesting battles," Koga began, mainly referring to the one between Kygaromaru and Euroichi. "We have two finalists, Yuki and Kyo, who will win in this battle between twin brothers? The battle will begin in ten minutes after we clean the arena." Koga announced to the crowd, getting a mixture of roars of approval and boos of disapproval.
Ten minutes went by as a flash to the two brothers, despite being bitter to each other, they both disliked the idea of fighting each other. Koga went out into the ring, announced them to the audience present and they both walked out. They'd grown up together, hell, they'd seen what the other could bring.
"Begin!" They both lunged at each other. Never had any in the realm seen something so violent. They both automatically went for the face, both knowing that the other relied on sight to be fully aware of what their opponent was about to do. Both connected with an eye, crimson decorated their claws as they went at any other vital spot.
A minute later found the brothers battered and bloody, many wounds decorating
Their bodies as they circled each other. More then pride was on the line, the right to gloat, to rule and of course to rub their victory into the other's face was all at stake. Blood was in their eyes from their wounded eyes.
"Well little brother, we'd better finish this quick." Yuki hissed, ignoring the blood pouring from where his brother had landed a clawed foot into his side, hitting his kidney.
"Then just quit." Kyo lunged again, all he knew was he needed to win. Yuki took this advantage, dodged quickly, and grabbed his neck from behind, and sending him into the ground with earth shattering force. The stadium grew quiet for the second time that day, the smoke eventually cleared as one stood up, and walked away.
"AND THE WINNER IS…. YUKI!!" The crowd cheered as Koga held up the battered twin's wrist in victory.
Kagome heard the roar and new that it was time. Kouga came in to her room and told her its time. The other ladies gave her hugs and she tried not to smirk knowing that she was going to kick some butt. She had no idea who won since Kouga wouldn't talk but she saw a slight blush on his face and she decided not to ask.
As they walked toward the stadium she coud smell the blood getting stronger. Before she could enter Kouga pulled her aside "Now my lady please be easy on the one that won. He is very injured from his fight and im nto sure how much more he will take." Kagome just laughed maniacally "Kouga my dear you should know that I never go easy on anyone. He should be able to fight as many as people as possible and still be able to fight me. If he can't then he is not worthy to be a mate of mine. And besides he should be able to come home and have his way with me no matter happened before". Kouga just blushed and walked quickly into the stadium with a smirking Kagome behind him.
"And now the final battle has come. Kagome has been well rested while the male who did win is still weak. Now if everyone will give a round of applause for the Lady Kagome." Everyone clapped and some males wolf whistled. Kagome knew her cue and walked in giving everyone a million watt smile. She looked for her opponent who was standing on the other end of the stadium.
Yuki saw her and his jaw dropped as did the rest of the males in the stadium. Excluding Kouga of course. She walked forward and she gave the infamous evil grin. They each took a battle stance and Yuki shook a bit from the blood loss. When Kouga said begin Kagome just stood there and let her demonic power ingulf poor Yuki. She made sure that his demon could feel just how powerful she is and how much more stronger she is than Yuki. Yuki felt himself begin to fall down to his knees from the strength that her demon was showing. The girl just laughed "Now Yuki are you going to just give up or am I going to have to really teach you how to fight?" Yuki just shook his head and bowed in defeat.
Kouga walked forward and took her hand and held it up "Gentlemen Kagome is the strongest demoness. Now she will decide on who her mate will be."
TBC
A/N: I know it wasn't much of a fight scene but I figured Yuki would be to weak from his fight with his brother to really want to fight. RandomGlompGirl has informed me that if you are interested she is thinking of writing a little Yaoi story of her own about Kygaromaru and Euroichi. She is not sure when she will have it posted but please do not flame her. Now please hit the pretty button below and write a review so that I can let her know how u felt about the fighting because that's what she wrote. I wrote everyone else well I also wrote the final battle. No update until at least 5. Pretty please with sugar and sprinkles on top review.
