Part 3: Recruiting help and unlocking strength
Disclaimer(See Part 1! The Encounter)
"You can run, but you can't hide Kuwabara!" The shouted taunting from the new high school filled Kuwabara with rage. 'Damn them! No matter how hard I try I just can't lose em'!' Kuwabara slowly ascended from his tiger like crouching position. He had hid behind a low wall, and was barely noticeable.
'Well.well.well.what do we have here?' One of the boys had noticed a piece of blue cloth sticking out from behind the wall.
"Lookie here guys! I've found him!" The boy then ran back into the street to gather his buddies when.
'For god's sake man run! Damn it, RUN!!' and Kuwabara was off, sprinting faster than he ever could have imagined. He turned his head hoping to see nothing but an empty street, yet something was approaching the horizon. Kuwabara ducked into an alley-way to wait, and also to catch his breath.
'Jeez...this.guy can.run fast.!' Almost instantly the figure appeared in the alley-way. Kuwabara somehow managed to get out and bolt down the street before the boy had blocked the entrance. 'Whoa! I got that funny feeling again!' Of course he is talking about his ability to sense supernatural beings, like ghosts, for example. He can also see a person's, or demon's true form!
He kept on running until the figure past him and was no at the end of the street waiting for him to arrive. 'Damn him! This guy is really fast!' Kuwabara took a good look at him and realized, 'Huh..Ahh! He's not even human! I wish Urameshi was here to help!' As he finished a blinding white light appeared behind the demon boy. Kuwabara closed his eyes only to hear the sound of fists flying, and bonese breaking. When the light was dim enough, he opened his eyes to see Yusuke standing over the fallen body of the boy.
The body slowly strained under his foot until Yusuke was forced to back away. "All right! Now you've really made me mad!" As the boy spoke, a dark red aura surrounded his body, and eventually his body began to glow in sync with the aura.
"Who, or what the hell are you!" Yusuke's face was very stern, and he demanded an answer.
"You will find out soon enough! For not many have had the privilege of witnessing the true form of Rando, and have lived to talk about it!" The now glowing form cackled sharply, as the red exterior faded away to reveal, not only unnatural skin, but also unnatural strength. A well-built, grayish form, called Demi-kai, or half human-half demon, and red facial, as well as body hair was now atanding directly in front of Yusuke!
"What the hell is that!?" Yusuke felt himself cringing at the knees. ' Damn! What power! He's way to strong for me face now!' the being's Spirit energy was litteraly crushing Yusuke, and he had to back away to stop the waves from hitting him.
"Ha ha ha ha! Can't handle my spirit! What's the matter? Is it to powerful for you! HA!" The demon began his annoying laugh again.
"Yusuke, be careful. This being.he is known only as Rando, and he's a Human Hunter! He hunts the human Psychics that have learned to harness their Spirits into attacks! He also copies the Tech from whoever he kills!" Botan was really worried. If Yusuke went up against Rando now, then the whole ordeal was wasted. She then added, "He's also destroyed 100 Psychics!"
Yusuke added, "Meaning he has over 100 attacks to chose from!"
"That's right, and I'll have one more added to my collection once I defeat you!" He began his laugh yet again, but this time Yusuke joined in. Rando stopped with a look of disgust on his face and said, "What's so funny! Come on. I'm dying to know!"
"You want to know what's so funny! Well I'll tell you. You're wasting your time with me!" He continued to laugh.
"WHAT!! Why!" Rando was shocked at the fact that he wasn't even afraid of him.
"Why? I'll tell you why! I don't even have a Tech for you to steal!" and he continued on laughing, "But.if you want my life. take it. I don't really need anyway." Yusuke said seriously.
"No. I won't.just yet.I'll let you live.for now.but be warned we will meet again! I will destroy you!" and at that Rando disappeared.
Yusuke turned to see Kuwabara face down, frozen like a statue, lying on the cement. Yusuke busted out laughing, but Keiko, who was flying on her spirit brrom, was now trying to snap Kuwabara out of the state of shock he had been put into.
"Hey! Kuwabara! Wake up! This Keiko Ukimura commanding you to WAKE UP!!!!" Kuwabara sprang up off the ground and began mumbling.
"Whoa! Calm down Kuwabara! Just remember the dream! It's all true!" Yusuke was slapping some sense into him.
"Hey.hey.HEY! Enough Urameshi! I get it already!" Kuwabara was getting ready to swing a punch, when Yusuke turned to Botan and said, "Hey Botan." She replied with, "Yes Yusuke."
He answered with, "When do I start learning tech skills?" Again she replied with, "You can only start out with one, and this one is a signal, or characteristic, of the user. The attack tells how that person is feeling, what they desire, or even sometimes how they behave! Yet, over time as your spirit grows, and your energy intensifies, you will be able the learn, and not steal the techniques of others."
"Well then. How do I do it?" Yusuke was determined to create his first Spirit Tech! "Oh.it is very easy. All you do is concentrate, form a pose, and shout what you want your attack to be called, and the rest happens on its own." Botan watched as Yusuke readied himself for his task.
As if he was at bat, he stood with his legs not to far apart and his left back at little. Next, he held out his right hand, and clenched all but his index finger and thumb into a tight fist. He then gripped his right wrist with his left hand, and stood there concentrating, all the while he could feel something deep within him begin to emerge!
"I can feel it! Here it comes! NOW!" He shouted and followed by steping back with his right foot and shouted, "Spirit GUN!"
Imagine a wave of skyward light surrounding a small pinpoint of flesh, as the energy materialized around his index finger, and traveled up to the tip where here the energy traveled no further. When the last tiny particle reached the tip.BLAST!
