Kyouka Ankoku (Strenthing Darkness)
17 [Fusion]

"Do you give up, Akujin?" Yusuke asked. "Do you declare defeat?"

"That's...what you wish." Akujin answered, the same evil smile on his lips. "I...am not...dead yet..."

"Shit...I thought for sure he was dead." Yusuke thought to himself, his eyes narrowing.

"What do you plan to do? You can't even move!" Yusuke shouted as he walked over to Akujin.

"Get...a new body..."

Yusuke stopped in his tracks. Did Akujin just say what he thought he said? He looked down at the beatened baddy, to see the same evil smile still on his lips.

"Don't...look so surprised, Ningen." Akujin answered. "I'll just leave you...for a moment...but then I'll be back stronger then ever."

Yusuke glared at Akujin, a bit worried. Whose body was this psycho going to take over? His? Botan's? Kurama's? Kuwabara's? Hiei's? Or worse...Keiko's?

"Numata, what are saying?" Keiko asked, looking at the orange haired youkai confused.

"Just stay out of the way, Keiko-San." Numata answered, looking over the ledge.

Keiko looked at Numata and noticed the slightly scared look in her eyes.

Akujin closed his eyes slowly. An aura of red light covered his whole body. The sky began to rage even more and the lightning began to flash insanely again. The ground vibrated and cracked even more.

"What?!" Yusuke thought in shock as lava shot up around him. "What is he planning to do?!"

Akujin opened his eyes and they were pure white. He opened his mouth, to reveal the inside glowing red. Yusuke shut his eyes when a red beam of light was fired from Akujin's mouth. It shot up over everyone's heads and through the clouds. Botan, Kurama, Hiei and Kuwabara looked up the light shot into the sky.

"What's he doing?" Kuwabara asked, confused.

Yusuke opened his eyes again and looked up. In shock, he realized the beam of light that was fired was heading towards Keiko. He looked where Akujin's body lay, and gasped. Akujin's body was gray and began to crumble.

"It's...coming this way!" Keiko shouted, looking at the red beam of light.

Numata just stood there, looking at it approaching her.

"Numata! Get away! It's going to hit you!" Keiko shouted, looking at Numata.

"Keiko-San," Numata spoke, staring at the red light. "If we had some how met under a different situation, do you think we could've been friends?"

"Possible." Kieko answered, looking at her confused.

Numata just smiled. The red beam of light broke through the last set of clouds and roared towards Numata. It struck her in the forehead, causing her skid back a bit. Keiko just watched in horror as Numata's body was engulfed in a red light.

"Numata!!" Keiko shouted, still chained to the rock.

The red light flickered away and disappeared into the sky. Numata stood there, dressed diffrently from before. Black tiger stripes radiated up her left arm while a black triangle was under her right eye.

"Nu...mata?" Keiko called, looking at the strange version of her.

Numata didn't say anything and just jumped off the floating platform.

"Numata!!" Keiko shouted.

Yusuke stood there, awaiting whatever would come down from the clouds. When he saw something falling towards him, he tensed up. What could it be? A dark, gruesome youkai? Or did Akujin posses Keiko's body?

Millions of questions buzzed in Yusuke's head as he awaited the approach of his newly formed adversary. He vowed that no matter what form Akujin took, he would kill him. Even if it meant...killing Keiko had he stolen her body.

Two pairs of bare feet touched the ground. A golden ankle bracelet on the left ankle and a small tattoo on the right. The person wore a white dress with a slit up the side. It was sleeveless and strapless. A two laired golden wire choker was around her neck pretty tight.

"Who the hell are you?!" Yusuke shouted to the oranged haired girl standing before him.

"Does this form suprise you, Yusuke?" Asked Akujin's voice, echoing in the air.

Yusuke looked around, then towards the girl in front of him. He sworn he saw her some place before. He just...couldn't remember right away.

"I'm sure you remember Numata, don't you?" Akujin asked. "After all, she was the one I sent to kidnap Keiko and escort you here."

"Sicko...why didn't you just heal youself like last time?" Yusuke asked, glaring at Numata.

"Unfortunately, I was only allowed to heal myself two times during a year." Akujin replied. "Until my original body returns, I shall remained fused into this body for awhile."

Yusuke looked at Numata and noticed the scar on her neck as well.

"Now Yusuke," Numata spoke. "Let's finish our little match. I'm sure their busy waiting for you bodiless spirit in Reikai."
