Hello!Yeah my lameness on writing fighting is really showing. Another long chapter but it's also the end of the anime part and the start of Autumn's story, basically. And I'll be using a different song for the next eighteen chapters.. well maybe next eighteen chapters it completely depends on how my muse is as I may have it ended before then but who knows at this point.
I love all who review, read, favorite, and put this story or me on alert! You are the sole reason I'm not killing my sims families or running around lost in Skyrim or Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning or making a YYH town to have Aut live out her life on the Sims 2.
Disclaimer: Nope don't own YYH and still just owning Autumn and Yoshi.
Chapter Twenty:I've followed this for in search of
Autumn stood next to Hiei and Genkai as she listened to them talk, as Hiei asked why they should trust Seaman and saw her brother look at her. She stepped up and looked at Seaman before she said "He is telling the truth. Hiei if I can get that from his mind then you should be able to easily." She glanced at Genkai and slightly pouted but she nodded, accepting that she couldn't go with her brother and friends. She sat on the truck with the others before seeing her brother and the others come back. Listening to them she jumped down and said "I'm going."
Genkai looked at her and gave a nod before she said "Alright, Kaito and myself will go too."
With that the group headed inside and back to the door as the door opened and they entered. With Yusuke making a joke and then explaining what the game was, he glanced at his sister knowing she never played any games. Kurama and them were planning, as he looked at them before he said the plan but added "Any sport ones, Autumn will do."
Seaman looked at Autumn and asked "Can she really do that?"
Autumn shrugged and said "Depends on the sport. I mean I'm on a track scholarship so most sports come easy to me." Her eyes looked as the kid and said "But as it's a game, I'm not sure how good I'd be." As the game was decided she walked forward and said "Really since I don't play games."
Seaman said "Hey Tennis is the one I'm best at. You should let me take this."
Kurama placed a hand on Seaman's shoulder and said "No it's hers."
Autumn glanced at the kid and said "Can I do a practice one to learn the controls?"
Gamemaster looked at the girl and laughed before he said "That is against the rules."
Autumn shrugged and said "And here I thought you would live up to your nickname, kid. A true gamemaster would be able to change the rules of the game they chose to bring to life." She stepped up to the controls and said "Lets get this started then." She was ignoring the look from the kid as she had insulted him which made him act like a kid.
As the match started Autumn lost the first couple of points before she smirked and said "So that is it." After that she started to win.
Yusuke stared and said "Kurama do you mind explaining why you said Autumn could take the sports."
Kurama chuckled softly and said "Simple, she is a master at any sports game. With her and me playing Goblin City together by doing what we are both good at.. we win nearly 90% of the time. Besides the Goblin king won't effect her because she is better at the mind games, if you've ever came to any of her track meets then you would know this. They think her as the weakest on the team because of her size."
Kaito glanced at Kurama before he said "I thought she said she never played before. Was that simply to make it seem like she would be easily beaten?"
Kurama nodded and said "Yes, if you look at him you'll notice he is rattled by her words and now he is trying harder to distract her. It isn't working because she already knows the pattern of the game and her skill to ignore."
Yusuke looked at his sister noticing the change in her and chuckled softly, "So much like she was younger. She was always competitive with sports.. she was always picked first though in elementary school."
Autumn giggled softly as she won the three sets in a row before she looked at Gamemaster, "Nice try but the girls at the track meets are more creative than you are with your insults." She turned and walked back to the group and took a spot next to Hiei and her brother.
Autumn watched as Genkai took her turn and then her brother, after that she saw Kaito step up and the quiz started. Her eyes staying on the questions before she said "Kurama, he memorized the question order."
Kurama looked at Autumn before he asked "Do you know how he did that?"
Autumn shook her head and said "Last time we played, I almost did but I didn't realize it until near the end of the quiz but to get it in the five questions.. then he has studied it far more than I have."
Yusuke looked at his sister and Kurama before he asked "You really do play games without me knowing?"
Autumn smiled at her brother and she said "Yeah, I only play at Kurama's house and normally after a long study session right before a test." She shrugged at his look before she looked forward as Kaito seemed to have given up.
As Kaito lost and Kurama realized what was going on, even Autumn did on one level. As Kurama stepped up to play and talked to the boy as Yusuke realized what was happening. Autumn bit her lip and whispered "Kurama." Her eyes looked at her friend as she listened to her brother and Genkai. Watching she stayed quiet with worry and concern in her eyes as Kurama won, as the territory exploded, she moved closer to Hiei for protection. She walked forward with them and looked at Kurama before she stepped closer to her brother and touched his arm. She said softly "Kill Sensui.. what he is doing to these kids... is completely horrible. Playing on their fears like that.. it's horrible."
Yusuke looked at his sister before he said "Promise." He looked at Genkai before he said "Autumn, stay with Genkai still." He then walked off with the others.
Autumn watched them leave as she hugged herself with worry clear on her face before she turned and appeared next to Genkai as she fell into step with the older woman. "Genkai, tell me.. what are their chances of success?"
Genkai glanced at the girl before she said "Do not worry, you have to have faith in them."
Autumn hugged herself and said "I do have faith in them but Kurama was so angry.. to use a child like that. I saw how he did it.. he is a manipulative bastard but he is putting the crimes of a few against all." She looked at the ground and added "Plus I can't help but worry that something bad is gonna happen to Yusuke. And if he dies..." She trailed off afraid to think of what would happen if Yusuke died again.
Genkai looked at the small girl as did Kaito before she placed a hand on the younger girls shoulder and said "That dimwit is too stupid to die again. So don't worry." She squeezed the shoulder under her hand rethinking the younger girl staying with them rather than going with her brother and friends.
As the group met Koenma, Genkai looked at Autumn before they split and said "Go with him. He isn't much of a fighter and might need someone to protect him." She gave Koenma a look that said it was for the girls sake that she was sending with him.
Koenma was going to protest until he saw the look and understood why the old master was sending the younger Urameshi with him. He nodded and said "Come on then."
Autumn stood there while she looked after Genkai and the other humans before she turned and followed Koenma, staying quiet.
Botan looked at the group that came out and saw that Autumn wasn't with them. "Where is Autumn?" She asked.
Genkai looked at the grim reaper and said "She is with Koenma, giving him back up."
Botan looked before she nodded and said "Alright." She caught the undertone and knew that there was more of a reason that made it so Autumn went with Koenma.
Autumn stopped running as she felt her brother's fear and she said "We have to hurry, he is very much afraid and in pain." Her heart was pounding as panic showed in her eyes, her speed changed as she passed Koenma. Getting to the entrance to the cavern and yelled "Yusuke!" Her eyes widen as she looked at her brother with her energy flaring up as her emotions took control with her healing energy snaking forward to heal the worst of her brother's wounds without a thought.
Koenma called out "Shinobu!" He saw the small girl was barely holding back from lashing out as he saw blood drip from her closed hand. However right then he didn't have the time to worry about the young girl as he locked his eyes on Sensui.
Yusuke looked at Koenma and his sister, yeah he was thankful for them but right then he didn't want his sister getting hurt and if he didn't stand a chance then what chance did his sister have. "Just stay back." He said in a strained voice.
Autumn growled as Sensui talked and said "Do that and I swear it'll be the last thing you do." Her eyes showed anger and pure protectiveness but it was a calm deadly anger in her eyes that rivaled even Kurama's eyes. She stared at Sensui as she listened to Koenma, after all she knew that she couldn't attack unless Yusuke died.
Koenma spared a glance at Autumn and said "This girl beside me has grown powerful, from your own tunnel, enough to force Shinobu out if I wanted to really talk to him."
Autumn didn't say anything as she stayed quiet, listening in on the minds around her as she heard Koenma's thoughts. Hearing the plan she said "Koenma, don't. I can block his energy."
Koenma and Sensui looked at her before Sensui laughed and said "Oh so the little girl thinks she is strong enough."
Autumn smirked and said "You are already underestimating one Urameshi... do you really wanna underestimate another one?" Her energy flared up as she sent Yusuke some of the stored energy in her that belonged to her brother.
Koenma stepped up and started to use his Mafukan only to be stopped by Yusuke. Who told them to leave, "Idiot why did you interfere!"
Yusuke said "I'm the damn detective and this is my case to solve." He complained about the pacifier being covered in drool. As Koenma tried to get the Mafukan which ended with him getting hit and sent across the room. He looked at his sister and said "Keep that toddler safe."
Autumn nodded before she said "Don't die or I'm not responsible for interfering." Her words held more meaning than just simply telling her brother what would happen. She jogged over to Koenma and stood next to him as her brother dealt with the current personality of Sensui. A shield coming up around them in order to make sure they were protected, her arms crossed as she watched the fight.
Koenma groaned as he sat up and went to walk out of the shield only to walk face first into it. He glanced at the girl who stood in the center and said "Let me out of here."
Autumn didn't even look at Koenma before she said "I can't do that. I said I would keep you safe. My loyalty is to my brother not you." As the wind from the energy blow past them it split around the shield she had up. "Ki... I've read about that." She said softly. Although she was distracted as her brother cried out in pain and she barely heard the crack from her brothers arm. The distraction was enough for Koenma to get out as her shield faltered.
Koenma stumbled forward and went between the two. "Shinobu." He pleaded as he looked at the man.
Autumn stayed back as she watched as her fingers curled her hands into fists before she said "Yusuke, don't be an idiot." She put her shield up to protect her as Koenma and Yusuke got thrown back. "Idiots." She muttered as she walked over towards the two males near the wall. Her hand coming up to touch her brother's arm as she healed it. She still felt fear in her stomach as she stood to the side while her healing energy boosted Yusuke's own energy.
Kurama stared at Autumn before he said "Hiei I can't reach her.. can you?"
Hiei crossed his arms and said "I can.. what do you want to know."
Kurama looked at Autumn and said "She shouldn't be able to withstand that energy.. she was never this strong before."
Hiei looked at Kurama before he looked back at Autumn and felt a tug on his arm with the dragon. "Her powers have grown from the tunnel. If he dies... do we know what will happen?"
Kurama shook his head and said "We have never seen her full power."
Kuwabara looked at the two demons before he asked "What do you mean?"
Kurama stared at them and said "Each time his life has been in the balance she's felt it and reacted to it. Those siblings aren't normal.. that is just her human side. Who knows what demon soul she holds in her." He looked at Kuwabara, "It means that we can't find out what will happen if Yusuke dies."
Itsuki looked at the small girl and thought 'That girl.. she has the power to seal that tunnel.. a match to my own psychic power.'
Autumn moved to the side that her brother wasn't on of Koenma and said "You aren't going to die." She knelled next to him and put up a shield around them as Koenma passed out. Her eyes, a light purple, glanced at the shadow on the wall and she smirked and said mentally in the shadow "That is my brother you are talking about. Now don't make me take control over your little pet, Itsuki, and let my friends out." The soft melodic voice was older sounding and clearly one that knew Itsuki.
Itsuki's eyes widen at the voice it was one he could never forget or stop fearing as he knew the power that the owner of the voice had. "No it can't be.. not her." He said softly as he seemed to move back. "No she can't be released, it would ruin the plans."
Kurama looked at Itsuki before he saw Kuwabara making the sword. He wondered just who the older demon feared so much but he saw how Kuwabara moved and attacked.
Autumn turned her attention back to Yusuke as he was hit, her eyes widening as she fell to her knees. "No.. no.. Yusuke!" She cried out her brothers name and appeared next to him as her energy flared up dangerously lashing out. Her hands hovered were the hit had been over her brother's chest as her energy went into him. As Kuwabara came over she stood as tears fell from her eyes, she turned to Sensui. "Wrong side?" She said softly before her energy flared up and lashing out before she said "Who are you to decide what is the wrong side? You are human just as the rest of us are, that means you can't decide what side is the wrong side and what is the right side."
Stepping forward with a growl as her energy seemed to take on the shapes of dragons, "You can't just take a life that has never done anything wrong. You aren't Yama, you aren't righteous.. you are just a lowlife who isn't any different from those humans who were torturing the demons." She yelled at the man. The flames of her energy that were in the shapes of dragons lashed out towards the man she yelled at, a couple of the flame shaped energy dragons raced forward to slam into the older male and throw him against the wall. Her emotions clear on her face, pain standing out the most at the lost of her older brother.
Hiei's eyes widen as he realized just what Autumn had in her. He whispered "The Dragon's Rose." He felt the power from her and the dragon of darkness flames was responding to her, he could feel it.
Kurama glanced at Hiei before looking back to the small girl to realize what Hiei whispered was true. It made sense to him now on how Autumn's healing worked so fast on her and how she was able to do heal the way she did. It also made sense on how Hiei had ended up with a soft spot for the girl so fast.
Autumn growled as she felt her demon friends react but she couldn't leave her brother, her energy still flared up as her friends went at Sensui. She heard Koenma and she said "Tell me how to get my brother back." Her voice gave no room for the prince to argue with her, it wasn't a question but an order.
Koenma looked at Autumn and her energy that seemed to flow from her and shape into dragons. His eyes widen and thought 'She got free.' "I don't know how you can.. he is dead.. unless you share your own life energy with him." He replied, not knowing what to say. Surprised that the ghost hasn't appeared yet, he looked up seeing a white light come shooting down and appear in front of the portal and looked at it.
Seaman asked "Who are they?"
Koenma replied and explained who they were to Seaman, as he noticed Autumn wasn't evening paying attention and that she seemed to be trying to heal her brother.
Autumn looked at her brother and knelled down before she whispered "Done then, I'm not going to lose him again." Her energy flowed to her brother as she healed his body before she focused on bringing her brother back to life. Her attention snapped to the thoughts from the caption and she growled before she said "Nobody but me and you guys aren't strong enough to take me on." She stayed next to her brother, healing him as she listened to them before she said "Koenma, you can obey them.. I'll take care of them." Feeling her brother's energy change she turned her attention back to him, her energy coming out right as Puu appeared as a giant phoenix around them.
Koenma yelled "Stop it!" As the SDF shot at the ball of energy that was the siblings and spirit beast. His eyes stayed on the ball as the red and purple energy surrounded them and grew before it disappeared. He could tell the SDF was scared of what would come out of the energy.
Autumn stood next to her brother as he spoke before she said "Yusuke, stop playing around." She hit him on the head after his evil laugh chased the SDF away, she could feel her energy shifting within her. Hearing the guy she rolled her eyes and said "He isn't evil, just an idiot." She jumped up on top of Puu and said "No you aren't leaving me behind Yusuke."
Yusuke looked at his sister and said "I would disagree but I know you." He turned towards the portal and said "To demon world Puu!"
Autumn closed her eyes and said "I really don't like that Sensui, he keeps hurting what is mine."
Yusuke looked at his sister before he said "We match it seems." He noticed the demon energy from her seemed to be as strong as his own.
Koenma looked at the siblings and said "That you do.. but Yusuke, you should know that she isn't like you exactly.. she holds the soul of an demon in her."
Yusuke shrugged and said "Don't care, we'll kick Sensui's ass just the same."
Autumn rolled her eyes and smirked as her light purple eyes looked at her brother before she said "I'll take care of the others while you are kicking his ass, maybe I'll join you but I'm just coming to make sure he dies."
Yusuke laughed and patted his sister's head before he said "Good plan, make sure Jr here doesn't get killed."
Autumn giggled softly at Yusuke's words about his heart as Kurama explained what happened. She walked over to her friends and said "You guys are getting stronger." Her energy flared up to heal her friends before she said "I'll join you in a few, Yusuke. After all I need to pay him back for the damage he has done to what is mine."
Yusuke smirked and said "I know but I'm gonna start the lesson." He then walked forward to face off against Sensui.
Kurama looked at Autumn and saw her demon energy clearly showing as she was healing them as a group. "You've taken to the demon side too, Autumn." He said.
Autumn glanced at her friend before she said "You're wrong Kurama, Autumn isn't here at the moment and nobody will remember what happened to her after I leave."
Hiei glanced at Autumn before he said "I didn't know that The Dragon's Rose was a real demon and not an item."
Autumn laughed softly and said "Most don't know that either, my love." She looked at her brother before she said "The name is Roze, as you will see the name 'The Dragon's Rose' is fitting." She moved up to on top of Puu when Yusuke told Puu to take them someplace high.
As Autumn/Roze watched she saw her brother get thrown back and winced slightly as she noticed what was happening. "They are talking about a plan or something from Sensui.. Yusuke is making jokes like the idiot he is." She said before she stood up and said "I'll be back." With a jump off of Puu she landed on the ground as her energy flared up at the same time her brother's did. "Hmm good to be back in my body." She said as she felt her tail twitched.
Koenma's eyes widen more as he saw the small girl when the dust cleared, sure he knew how she was suppose to look but to see her in person it made him realize just how she could tame dragons into listing to her.
Kuwabara looked at Autumn before he said "She's a cat... a cat."
Hiei hit Kuwabara on the head and said "She is a demon.. on the same level as those two down there which is S class remember. And it isn't just her own energy to worry about, she is protected by dragons." 'One of which is under my control and clearly this one is much more special to her than the others to call me her love.'
Below them stood Autumn.. er Roze in her full demon form. Long dark purple hair barely touched the ground as long haired black cat ears twitched on top of her head and a long haired long black cat tail flicked behind her. Her clothes had changed to a dark purple kimono with a black dragon with crimson eyes that was outlined in red wrapped around her, they showed off a curvy mature body. Light purple eyes looked up at them from an mature looking face and she grew a few inches on height, a smile appeared on her full lips as she straighten to her full height of five foot three inches. Walking forward, she appeared next to her brother and said "Brother must you take control like that? I hate being transformed like that." A pout appeared on her lips as her hand rested on her hip and she looked at the white haired half demon that was her brother.
Kurama looked at the two before his eyes widen again and said "Even as demons they are siblings."
Koenma looked at Kurama before he looked back to the two on the ground and said "I've heard rumors of S class siblings, I didn't think that those two would be them."
Yusuke looked at his pouting sister and said "Roze.. it's been a while. But it does not matter, we will kill him."
Roze shook her head slightly and said "I believe you will give him the pain he deserves for damaging what is mine. I will just watch but be careful, the human in you is strong." She stepped back and let Yusuke or his demon self go into beating Sensui. Calling on one of her dragons she smiled at the grey dragon who came to her and let her sit on his back as he moved up to be next to the others.
Kurama looked at Roze and asked "What are you doing?"
Roze giggled and said "I'm watching my brother give the pain, as much as I would love to be giving the pain but he has been lost far more longer than I have been." Her eyes turned to Hiei before she said in his mind "The dragon you tamed, he is my mate. Even as Autumn, the dragon you tamed knows that it's me. We will be yours when the time comes, she will look like this later in life well body wise as she won't get the ears and tails until we merge and she becomes more of a full demon."
Hiei's eyes widen at what was told to him before he glanced at the neko who sat at ease on the back of one of the dragons of demon world that would without a thought devourer anyone else. He turned back to the fight to watch as Yusuke was powering up his spirit gun.
Roze watched as Yusuke come back into control as she motioned for them to follow Yusuke when he took off running down his trail. As they landed she stood with the dragon's head resting on her shoulder.
Laughing, Roze said "Yusuke, do not worry. I can promise that your ancestor isn't as bad as you think. Yes he is an S class and the reason I chose Autumn as my host, he is my brother and I don't believe in separating siblings."
Yusuke looked at the cat girl and asked "What do you mean you chose Autumn as your host? Who are you?"
Roze patted the dragon's head and kissed it's muzzle before she sent it off. Turning to face Yusuke, she said "I am the demon who resides in your sister, the one who has been healing all of you this whole time. My name is Roze and I'm known as The Dragon's Rose.. most don't know that I am a demon but think of The Dragon's Rose is an item. Only you will remember any of this, the others wont.. not even the spirit world defense. So take care of your sister, she isn't ready for me yet or the power I hold. As she still has to grow as strong as you were before she can handle me." She rubbed her head and said "You might wanna catch her, I am too tired from keeping her alive while I came out."
Yusuke stared at Roze before he moved forward and caught his sister in his arms, picking her up and said "Geeze this is gonna be annoying." With that everyone got on Puu and headed home.
A groan came from Autumn as she was in Kurama's arms, opening her eyes as she heard the yelling before she closed them again and turned her head to Kurama's chest. "Yusuke you idiot." She mumbled. Her head was pounding and her body ached, over all she just couldn't stay awake. As it was, since she didn't sense any danger and her brother was alive she could only believe that the image of him dead had been a dream only.
Yusuke looked at his sister and had the flash to the neko girl before he shook his head and said "I'll take her now Kurama." He turned around so she could be put on his back and he held her knees as her arms draped over his shoulders before he started to walk forward. Calling back for Keiko with the added comment of "Plus we need to get the kid home, she got all tuckered out."
Keiko laughed and caught up with Yusuke before she looked at Autumn and said "So it seems. We need to get her home to rest."
Kurama said "After you get her home, I'll cut your hair Yusuke."
