Chapter 21
Standing in a small circle, I sighed, feeling my demon side reacting to the power the tunnel was creating.
"Before we proceed, let's go over what we know of our enemy. That there were seven of them to begin with, Yusuke took out Doctor."
"And I did away with Sniper."
"Yes, seven minus two leaves five."
"Matari's with us now, that just leaves four."
"We know they will head back to Demons door cave, that's where we will intercept them and retrieve Kuwabara."
"Well, glad we're sitting on our asses waiting patiently."
"Stick it up your ass you sarcastic twit, the tunnel opens up in two days and your sarcasm isn't making it close up any faster."
"But that's four days earlier than our team in spirit world was estimating."
"Why do they keep moving up the deadline? It's like everyday the tunnel is growing faster."
"When a psychic tampers with the power Itsuki has, they tend to be over powered and lose control."
"Now that you mention it, he did say it was growing faster than he thought. It's like it has a life of its own and wants to grow."
"You can tell it wants to grow just by looking at our fair city, well once fair."
"All the more reason for us to storm the cave now before the gate way can expand any wider. Which it will now that they have Kuwabara, if they can use his new found power to cut threw the barrier and released the more powerful demons, while dumb I don't think Kuwabara would ever willingly help Sensui."
"But they don't need him to because they have gourmet."
"Right. According to Matari, they are most likely going to have this gourmet each his power that they can then use to break the kakai barrier."
"I saw him do it once; it was the most horrific thing I've ever seen. He gains there abilities by literally eating them whole while they are still alive."
I covered my mouth at this new information, lightly grabbing Kurama's hand causing him and his classmate to look down at my sudden movement, still trying to fight the erg to transform.
"What's wrong?"
"The power the tunnel is creating; I can't control my demon side for much longer."
Gripping my hand, he nodded, obviously in thought about this problem.
"We should send a small group to scout out the cave. Yusuke, Kurama, Hiei. You'll be the first wave. That a way just incase you all get killed while your down in there, the rest of the world still has a chance of surviving this disaster. We will go as a second line of defense, hang back here, and see how it goes."
"Wait what?"
"We need you here with us Abby."
Seeing Kaitou smirking at me, I growled.
Turning to Kurama, I kissed him.
"You better come back."
"I will."
With a nod the groups separated, waiting out side the cave for the group of four to return, I looked over at Genkai.
"The power of the tunnel is starting to get to you."
Nodding I looked at the ground.
"Yeah."
Turning to Botan I sighed.
"I don't care if I get fired, or thrown in jail, I have to let my demon side out."
"I know, if it comes down to that, I'll explained what happened."
Nodding I sat down as the sun began to set and aloud my demon form to surface.
Feeling my tail lightly scraping the ground, and my ears twitching at the wind, I felt better. More in control of my powers.
"Much better."
I laughed as the humans looked at me like I was crazy.
Suddenly the boys came back in a hurry, Kurama and Hiei giving me a curious look before explaining they needed five more people to go threw a territory.
Kaitou, Yana, Genkai, and I followed the small team threw the tunnels following some sort of Lantern plants that Kurama had planted, finally reaching a door.
"We're eight, now where do we stick the quarter?"
Slowly the doors open, blinding us for a moment. Walking into the room, there was a screen against a wall with a small podium, looking to the right of the screen, revealing a small child.
"I don't like this, how does this work?"
With a sigh, Yusuke explained the rules.
I rolled my eyes as everyone tried to come up with a plan.
"Ok, what happens if someone looses?"
The group looked at me like I was crazy.
"You don't do anything normal do you?"
"Well sorry I have a job."
"Will you two stop it."
I growled, watching Matari play some weird, over confident, goblin thing.
Standing between my mate to be and the human I would love to rip apart, huffing as Matari won his round. Hearing Kurama sigh as Genkai started her turn, he moved me to his other side, between him and Hiei.
Why do you hate the human so much?
I despise anyone who assumes I'm a drop out.
That's what you're mad about?
He's ignorant; he just rubs me the wrong way.
Hiei chuckled, as Yusuke won. The kid deciding he would play against Kaitou.
"Kurama?"
"Yes?"
What did you figure out?
Think about it.
The kid doesn't use his powers very often. Wait, what happens when the Goblin king losses?
He dies.
I gasped looking at the red head in shock.
You have to beat him Kurama.
I know.
Realizing we had missed Kaitou's match, and it was Kurama's turn. I watched him walk forward; grabbing his hand, causing him to look back at me.
Please, don't do anything stupid. You have to tell the kid.
I know.
Touching my mark, I watched as Kurama told the kid what will happen if he looses.
Letting a soft whimper out as the game started, my ears tilting to the side as the kid started to lose.
"Abby?"
I looked at Yusuke, realizing my whimpering was distracting him.
"Sorry."
I could here the humans asking Genkai why I kept grabbing my neck.
Seeing the kid drop, I slowly approached Kurama, feeling his anger without touching my mark.
"K-Kurama?"
When he wouldn't look at me, I walked in front of him, trying to get him to look at me. Jumping when a look of pure malice crossed his features.
"I don't know what to do."
"You three will join me, we will go back to our original plan."
"I'm sorry Genkai, but, I can't leave him like this."
With a nod, she glared at the humans as the group split up. Walking into a brightly lit cave, we spotted Kuwabara in the middle of a boat on the water. Sensui was watching some movie, and a blue haired man was standing off to the side.
Realizing that Sensui was watching the chapter black tape, allowing a small growl out; glaring at Sensui as the lower C class demons tried to grab Kuwabara and eat him. Gasping when Sensui sent a ball of energy at the demons, forcing them back into the tunnel; looking at whom I assumed to be Itsuki I realized he looked familiar. Side stepping around my group, ignoring the look Kurama gave me; I worked my way to Itsuki. Stopping a few feet from the demon, I sniffed at him.
"So it is you."
"Yes little one."
"Thank you."
He nodded, as I bowed and made my way back to my group.
What was that about fox?
If we survive, I will tell everyone.
Standing between Hiei and Kurama; watching the human and demon in front of our group. Trying to ignore Sensui's little speech about the demon classes, finally he called the big guy over. Saying if we could kill him, then we could have Kuwabara back.
Growling as Gourmet started reading our minds.
"And you've got a juicier one, don't you Kurama? You're a lot more torn up about killing Game master than what Yusuke believes."
Not good.
"Not only are you riddled with guilt, you're embarrassed, Yoko Kurama would never be so weak."
Easy Kurama.
Not receiving a response I looked over at the fox as he stopped Yusuke from going after Gourmet.
"I'll take this one Yusuke, don't argue, I'm not in the mood."
"Ok."
With a sigh I watched Kurama step forward in front of Gourmet, quickly Kurama pulled out his rose, holding it in position for a second, closing his eyes. All of a sudden his rose whip was wrapped around Gourmet's head and Kurama decapitated him.
"Rely on impulse and not even your thoughts can betray you, come out Toguro. Did you think I wouldn't notice? I could smell your stench since we entered the cave."
"What?"
Jumping as the elder Toguro's head formed out of Gourmet's body.
"Good Kurama it seems your powers have improved even in your human form, though the red hair isn't nearly as pretty as the silver."
Shivering as Toguro turned his slimy gaze on me.
"It seems your vixen is still very beautiful, she will be mine."
Wrapping my arms around my body, trying to hide from the disgusting demon until Kurama spoke up.
"That is enough; you've survived for far too long. And now it ends."
As Toguro started to charge Kurama let out a smoke screen.
"It's definitely working."
Smirking as the smoke became thicker.
All of a sudden all we could hear Toguro screaming, looking off to the side I spotted Kurama. As the smoke cleared we realized Toguro was held in place by a blue tree that was wrapped around him, hearing Kurama call it the sinning tree.
Wincing as the tree devoured Toguro. All of a sudden Kuwabara was sitting on the shore. As the guys went over to him I stayed in my spot, watching as a shadow appeared, and swallowed the guys.
"What's going on?"
With a smirk Itsuki grabbed me forcing me into the ground.
Looking around I glared at Itsuki as two of his arms held me in place.
Feeling another pair of his arms forcing my ears down, so I couldn't hear anything; shaking my head I tried to get the hands off me. Finally I was released as Itsuki explained when Sensui lost it.
"Why don't you explain what happened that night so long ago vixen."
"What is he talking about Abby?"
With a sigh I glared at Itsuki.
"One night my father and I were playing around in the human world, I was only pup and he wanted me to see what the human world was like. But we got to close to a rich human's mansion and we were captured. Three humans dragged us into a room filled with other demons. My father kept me behind him, protecting me from the panicked demons. Eventually some humans entered the room, and they started pulling demons to their feet and torturing them, spilling their blood all over the floor. One human grabbed me before my father could react, and my wrist, waist, and ankles were tied with ropes, I was lifted off my feet, my back colliding with some spikes hanging from the ceiling. All of a sudden the door burst open, causing the human that had been pulling me into the ceiling to drop me. My father picked me up, and forced me behind him. All of a sudden he dropped dead covered in blood. Before Sensui could attack me, Itsuki stepped in."
Pausing my story, I made eye contact with Kurama, seeing pity and rage in his emerald eyes.
"How did you step in Itsuki?"
"I explained to Sensui that she was only a child, as harmless as a five year old human. He allowed me to take her back to her mother."
I nodded in agreement, watching as Itsuki released me. Working my way to the group, ignoring the look Kurama was giving me.
Hope everyone enjoyed, remember to review!
