Chapter 11: You're Still Alive?!

"No way!" yelled Akio.

"But, but we…just saw…"stuttered Mai.

"There's no way you could be alive! I knocked you over that cliff! It means certain death for anyone! Even a demon!" screamed Midori.

"Let's just say it takes a little more than shoving me off a cliff to kill me!" said Shiro. Sure he survived the fall, but he looked a little scratched up. But surviving a fall like that would need a miracle!

"How did you survive!?" demanded Midori.

"I don't know…(everyone does an anime-style fall) But let's fight first and talk later!"

"Fine by me!" yelled Midori as she lashed out her tail at him again. This time Shiro not only managed to dodge the attack, but he also managed to cut off her tail! She wasn't very happy about that. He's a lot faster than I last remember. But then again, they said he was no ordinary half-breed, thought Midori. Midori pulled out two sharp blades, scorpion-demons were known for their powerful blade attacks. Plus it was said that almost nothing could break their swords.

"Chaos Claw!" shouted Shiro as he extended his claws from the gloves. He charged at Midori who placed the two blades in front of her trying to block of Shiro's attack. At first it seemed to work, but then both of the blades shattered. This surprised Midori and threw her backwards.

"You're even more pathetic than Yari, Midori," said an unfamiliar voice. They all looked up and saw a dark cat demon standing on a tree branch.

"Kemuri! You have to help me!" cried Midori.

"If you cannot defeat this half-breed you'll not be able to join our armies. You'll only remain as a tool, a weak tool. So let's see if the scorpion-demon is worthy enough for the Demon-Queen, Yoru."

Shiro's hands turned into fists when he heard the demon queen's name. While everyone was staring at Kemuri, Yugi was the only one who noticed that Shiro's claws were cutting into his flesh and drawing out blood.

"Well half-breed, if you win this match I hope you'll consider joining our forces."

"Not a chance! I'd never join the ones who've murdered my family! After I'm finished here you're next!"

"We'll see about that, farewell." With that Kemuri vanished.

Shiro returned his attention to Midori. She seemed shocked after Kemuri called her a weak tool. She gave a cry and tackled Shiro to the ground. Then four golden claws came protruding out of her back. Her body then vaporized and Shiro slowly got up, he looked like he'd seen better days. He slowly began to make his way back to the gang.

"Hey Shiro! Nice to se you're…" began Tristan. Splat! Shiro collapsed on the ground.

"Shiro!" everyone yelled. They raced towards him and Zeero pulled him to an upright sitting position.

"I don't believe it!" exclaimed Zeero.

"What?" asked Joey.

"He's asleep…" said Zeero in amazement. (Everyone else does an anime-style fall)

"This is no time to be taking naps!" yelled Kaiba.

"Wake up already!" screamed Akio. The two shook Shiro, but he wouldn't wake up.

"Well after all he's been through you can't really blame him…" said Yugi (sweat drop)

"If you can't wake him, join him!" said Zeero and then, kerplop! He fell asleep too!

===============================================================
