I own Willow, don't own Yu Yu Hakusho
***Genkai's Student*** Chapter Three: Begining of their Training
Once again, they found themselves in the underbrush. Standing up, they saw the mountain a few meters from them. They moved to the mountain, keeping their eyes out. They stopped to see Willow sitting on a rock, playing a small flute like instrument. It was silver with gold and green leaves and vines winding around it. She stopped playing when they arrived, looking up at them from her perch.
"Hello again. So you survived this test, this was a piece of cake compared to what awaits you." she slipped the flute into her cloak and stood up. She beckoned them to follow her with her fingers. She led them up to a small worn path that went up the mountain. "This is your next test. Reach the first platform before nightfall, also, you must stay on the path and battle whatever comes your way. You begin now." she crouched and jumped, landing on the path above them and continued leaping up until she was barely visible. She was standing on a large ledge that could only be the platform.
They started running up the path, seeing that the sun was starting to go down. They had barely reached the path above them when they were ambushed by troll-like demons. They fought them quickly, racing against the sun. They continued, Hiei up front to warn them of dangers. A large plant with tentacle-like vines was in their way. Hiei hung back, knowing what kind of plant they were dealing with now.
"That's a Leech Plant, it steals Spirit energy from whatever it catches in its vines. It won't stop until its drained all of it, including life force." Kurama said, staring at the plant.
"Alright, Spirit energy is out," Yusuke started.
"No, the best way to kill it is by Spirit energy," Hiei said, sheathing his sword. "It can only absorb Spirit energy when in contact with you. If you fire your Spirit Gun, it will be destroyed instead of getting stronger." he explained. Yusuke smirked, aiming his finger at it.
"Good, we've wasted too much time." he fired his Spirit Gun at it, it demolishing into tiny pieces of dust. They quickly ran past it and to the next path. They met some more trolls but destroyed them quickly.
"We only have an hour left." Kurama warned. They ran up the path, their breathing hard and labored. Kuwabara shouted as his feet became stuck in oozing mud. He struggled to free himself but it only sucked him in deeper.
"Kuwabara!" Yusuke grabbed a branch and broke it, reaching with it to grab Kuwabara. He grabbed it, his waist down was covered in the mud. Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiei pulled him out slowly. They paused a few seconds to catch their breath, but the sun was sinking. They hurried down the path and saw the platform. Some more trolls leapt out and tackled them, but the four vigorously fought them off.
"Rose Whip!" Kurama sliced the trolls in half around him. Hiei slashed with his sword as Kuwabara sliced with his Twin Spirit Swords.
"Shot Gun!" Yusuke delivered his powerful attack that sent the trolls over the edge of the path. They ran and stepped on the platform just before the sun was completely gone. Willow was waiting patiently for them, sitting on a low branch of a tree in the platform. She merely opened her eyes as a greeting.
"Eat and rest, you're safe here." she motioned to some sleeping bags and some food laying by the tree. The four ate their fill and fell asleep in the sleeping bags, exhausted from the day's events.
