Kyouka Ankoku Strenthing Darkness Chapter 12: Revenge, a yu yu hakusho fanfic

Kyouka Ankoku (Strenthing Darkness)
12 [Revenge]

The red blood of Akujin poured out of his body like a river and stained the gray stone ground. Kuwabara slightly shivered as he looked at the calm, dark look in Akujin's eyes. Akujin sensed Kuwabara's fear and smiled.

"Is something wrong, Ningen?" Akujin asked. "I thought you wanted to see me die?"

"What's he planning?" Kuwabara asked himself.

Suddenly, Kuwabara remembered. He remembered seeing Akujin collect energy and use it to heal his wounds. After that, Kuwabara could feel Akujin's spirit energy increase greatly.

"He must be wounding himself in order to lift his spirit energy!" Kuwabara thought to himself in shock.

"Smart boy. You know my plan." Akujin replied, grinning at Kuwabara.

"What?! I didn't say anything!" Kuwabara shouted in shock.

"You don't need to." Akujin answered.

"Because I can read your mind." Akujin spoke telepathetically to Kuwabara.

Kuwabara took a step back in shock. He looked up at Kuwabara, blood trailing down his side. With a mighty pull on Kuwabara's sword, Kuwabara was sent flying towards Akujin. Akujin punched Kuwabara square in the face with such force, it sent him flying back.

"KUWABARA!!" Yusuke shouted as he watched his friend/rival sore through the air.

Kuwabara slammed into one of the realms dead trees, causing it to brake. His body hit the rocky ground surface and disappearing in the fog. Yusuke growled, and faced Akujin.

Akujin's wound began to emit a red light. Bit by bit, the gigantic hole in his side began to heal over. He hunched over, as it in pain. His muscles began to throb as veins began to appear on his muscles. Akujin's muscles began to expand and the ground began to crack even more.

Kuwabara sat up. He looked towards where Akujin was standing and his eyes widdened in shock. He watched in shock as an aura of red light surrounded his entire body.

"Oh no! He's healing himself!" Kuwabara shouted in shock to himself.

"That's right, Ningen." Akujin replied, looking up at Kuwabara. "And when I'm through, you'll wish you never decided to face me!"

Numata stood her ground as she watched Akujin power up. Keiko watched too from where she was chained.

"So that's what he was planning!" Keiko answered. "That's why Akujin stabbed himself with Kuwabara's sword! He did it so he could heal himself and raise his spirit energy!"

A sweat drop trailed down the side of Numata's face as she watched Akujin power up.

The ground shook for a little while longer before coming to a stop. The aura of light disappeared and everything went silent. Akujin slowly stood straight up, steam rising from his body. Slowly, he looked up at Kuwabara, his eyes glowing red.

"Kuwabara! Get out of there!" Yusuke shouted to him.

Kuwabara couldn't move as he looked Akujin in the eyes.

"ROUND TWO!" Akujin shouted, charging towards Kuwabara.

Halfway there, Akujin disappeared into the fog. Kuwabara looked around, trying to see him through the fog. Akujin appeared behind him and punched him in his back. Kuwabara let out a cry of pain as he flew forward and slammed into a boulder. Akujin re-appeared in front of Kuwabara and grabbed him by his shirt collar.

"You should've listened to your friend, Ningen." Akujin answered, looking down at Kuwabara. "It would've saved you the pain of dieing."

"KUWABARA!" Yusuke shouted from the side.

Akujin punched Kuwabara in his stomach with his free-hand. Kuwabara spat up blood as Akujin began to punch him harder and harder in the same spot. Botan cringed as she heard the sound of Kuwabara's ribs breaking with each punch.

Akujin through Kuwabara down onto the ground. Kuwabara lay on the ground, eyes dialated and twitching. Akujin cracked his knuckles as he looked down at him.

"I'll save you from suffering more." Akujin answered, as he sharp nails began to extend.

Akujin drew his hand back and looked down at Kuwabara.

"SHINI!!!" Akujin shouted, lunging his sharp nails towards Kuwabara's heart.

"AKUJIN!!"

Akujin paused and turned around. Yusuke faced him, his aura of blue light surrounding his body. His eyes boiled with rage and hate as he faced Akujin.

"That's enough!" Yusuke shouted.

"So Yusuke." Akujin answered, his nails going back to normal. "You've finally decided to face me?"

Yusuke took a few steps forward, a hateful look on his face.

"After letting you're friends get beaten up before your eyes, you finally come forward onto the battlefield." Akujin spoke.

Yusuke remained silent as he stood a few feet away from Akujin.

"I don't know what to say." Akujin answered, putting his hands on his hips.

"How about your last words before I beat you into a pulp?" Yusuke asked, still glaring at Akujin.

"Cocky little punk, aren't we?" Akujin asked as he cracked his knuckles. "Oh well. No matter."

Akujin looked Yusuke right in the eyes, and smiled.

"It makes beating you to death all the more better." Akujin answered.
