So this is actually a really short chapter and I promise the next one will be longer, but anyways I am looking for a BETA to help me with grammar, spelling, etc. and if you think you can handle please send me a message on here and we'll talk :)

(I don't any YYH characters, just Faye)


Byakko told them to follow the hallway that was infront of them, and the group did as they were told until that reached a giant iron door. Faye was about to say something, but was cut off as the huge door opened for them.

"Oh great now we're walking into a pre-heated oven." Yusuke said with an annoyed look on his face.

"Who cares, as long as it leads to Byakko." Kuwabara said equally annoyed.

"Ok then, you go first."

Faye began walking ahead of them, "Let's just go."

The group walked in silence, and each step making them hotter, and hotter til they reached the end of the hallway, and were standing on a platform.

"Gimme a break, guess room of hell wasn't just a clever name." Yusuke said.

Faye looked around the room, taking in her surroundings. The room in general was huge, but instead of just having a solid arena, Byakko took it a step further by having nothing, but pillars.

"I hope Kuwabara is a good jumper."

Faye then notice Yusuke, and Kuwabara looking down below, "That's…"Yusuke began, "Lava…" Kuwabara finished for him.

"That explains the heat." Faye thought as she stared at the boiling lave below.

Faye heard a ripping sound, and watched as Kuwabara then ripped off a piece of his shirt, letting it float down below.

"It incinerated before it even touch the ground." She said, stepping away from the edge.

"Wow."

"We better not fall into that guys." Kuwabara said once again stating the obvious.

"A fine view isn't it? This is my private chamber, I come here to…play." Byakko said standing proudly in the middle of the room on one of the pillars in the arena.

Faye got a good look at the tiger hoping to see some sort of wound or injury, but she got nothing.

"No way he's back to normal!" Kuwabara freaked out.

"Monster you piss me off!" Yusuke yelled at him.

"As you've already discovered, this room is filled with lava that will melt anything it touches. So does anyone have the courage to challenge me?" Byakko said looking smug.

"You bet I do circus freak! You think you've got so much power?" Yusuke yelled at him.

Kuwabara put a hand on Yusuke's shoulder, "Hey, leave em' to me Urameshi."

"Let the sword man come, him and I have a very pressing score to settle."

"You got that one right Byakko, and this time I'm beating you up in ways the vet can't even fix!"

"There's no need to push yourself."

"Huh?" Kuwabara turned his attention to Hiei.

"You've already fought well enough, now let Yusuke take over the battle, so you can heal on the small chance that we might actually need you later."

"I'm sorry Hiei, but I just don't think I can do that. See I've got this thing called a code, and it says no matter how ugly a fight gets, always finish it. Even if it means risking my life."

"Hn. A human with an honor code." Hiei said with a disgusted look on his face.

"You can't argue with the guy, he's like a mule."

"Yes he's almost as stubborn as you." Kurama said looking at Yusuke.

"What have you all surrendered?" Byakko yelled at them.

Kuwabara stepped up, "Shut-up! I'm coming you impatient hairball!"

Faye watched a Kuwabara leapt to one of the pillars, and gasped as it crumbled as soon as Kuwabara's foot touched, but luckily he was able to hold on as the rubble went down to the lave below.

"Kuwabara! Are you sure you don't want me to tag in!" Yusuke yelled at Kuwabara, as he struggled to get on top of the platform.

"Shut-up Urameshi, I'm completely on top of this!"

"Well we can't tell it from here." Faye yelled at him, "Do you want to try falling again?"

Hiei smirked at the girl's comment.

"I just got distracted cause it's so freaking hot in here!" He yelled at her as he took his shirt off.

Kuwabara charged up his spirit sword, "Come at me with whatever you want Byakko!"

Byakko laughed at him, "Actually I was planning on using a different kind of attack this time."

"That's fine with me."

Byakko then let out one of his moans as, what looked electricity went into his body, the next thing Faye new Byakko had grabbed his throat, and opened his mouth where a eerie glowing ball of light was there.

"What is that?" She asked no one in particular.

"Something powerful." Kurama answered here staring at Byakko in shock.

"Very." Hiei said with the same expression.

Finally the ball shot out of Byakko's mouth and headed straight for Kuwabara.

"So it does exsist." Faye heard Hiei say.

"What is that thing Hiei." She asked him.

Kuwabara moved, and made it so that his spirit sword was a bat, and Faye thought all was well until Kurama yelled at him, "No! You mustn't touch it! Get away!"

At the last minute Kuwabara jumped to another pillar, and the ball of energy completely destroyed the pillar that he was just on.

"You like it? I call it my tiger scream. Everything it touches transforms into a pile of ashes."

"For years I have heard of a fighter who could destroy molecular bonds with the vibration of his voice. I never thought I would meet him." Hiei said finally answering her.

"So he can't use his spirit sword on it." Yusuke asked him.

"No. The sword would cause a chain reaction that would destroy his entire spirit."

Byakko launched his tiger scream again, and now had Kuwabara jumping from one pillar to another.

When Byakko finally stopped using the attack he just replaced it with a different one.

"Tiger claw!" Byakko yelled sending, what look like glowing shards Kuwabara's way, and successfully cutting him.

"What the? Kuwabara! Will you switch with me already!" Yusuke began yelling at him again.

Faye watched as the two fighters began exchanging banter, but then she noticed something, she should've noticed before.

"All the pillars are gone." She said.

"What?" Yusuke looked at her.

"All the pillars are gone," Faye said annoyed that she had to repeat herself, "Kuwabara has one more pillar left before he has to jump on the one that Byakko is on, and then who knows what will happen."

Kurama nodded in agreement with Faye's statement.

Kuwabara looked like he was about to jump on the last pillar he had, but Byakko quickly destroyed it before he had the chance.

"Now what's he going to do?" Faye thought worriedly.

"Can you reach him Hiei?" Kurama asked the short demon beside him.

"If need be."

"You guys better stay put. You're whispering to each other on how you can rescue me aren't you? How many times do I have to tell you I don't want your help!" Kuwabara yelled at them.

"I don't understand that guy." Yusuke said pitifully.

"I don't either." Faye said in agreement.

"Does he not realize that he's about to die?"

"Perhaps he's still devising an attack." Kurama said trying to comfort his friend.

"Hn. Perhaps he's a fool."

Byakko let loose his tiger scream once again, and Faye held her breath as Kuwabara jumped.

"Kuwabara!" Yusuke yelled, but then Kuwbara powered up his spirit sword making it extended till it hit what was left one of the pillars, and then using it as a vault he successfully landed a punch right in Byakko's face, sending him, and Byakko off the side into the lava below.

"Kuwabara!" Faye screamed this time.

"No…he can't…it's wrong." Faye muttered to herself, holding back the tears she was afraid she was gonna spill.

"YOU CAN'T DIE!" Yusuke screamed as he dropped to his knees, trying to hold back tears as well. "IT'S ALL SO STUPID! I mean we're protecting the world, so who's protecting us!" Yusuke continued to yell.

"Hey! Can I get some help here? Guys?"

Faye looked up, and a smile lit her face as she saw one of Kuwabara's bandages that was wrapped around his body was stuck on the pillar.

"C'mon guys, I can feel something slipping!"

"He's alive?" Faye said, feeling a weight lift off her shoulders.

"How fortunate." Hiei said sarcastically.

The group made their way over to the pillar that Kuwabara was stuck on.

"You had me worried there Kuwabara, I thought you bit the dust." Yusuke said looking down at him.

"Yeah, yeah it's exciting, now help me up!"

"Well an interesting strategy. Maybe we should let you kill the other beasts this way too." Hiei said looking down at him as well.

"Yes." Kurama said in agreement.

"No way you guys, I've done my share of fighting for this trip, now will you please stop goofing around, and help me up!"

"But we can't Kuwabara, don't you remember? You said you'd kill us if we helped you." Faye said joining in the fun.

"Yes, it would go against your honor code." Kurama said smirking at him.

"That doesn't count! Once I beat him it's okay you see!"

"Well we've got three more Saint Beasts we've got to fight, might as well get going. We'll catch up with you later Kuwabara, just hang in there." Yusuke laughed as he pretended to walk away.
