"Darque Tournament"
By Wicked-Wytch
Disclaimer: We'd finally done it. My lawyer and I had been up for days searching through volumes of old law books. And we'd found it. The loophole had been there- it'd been very well hidden, but it'd been there. Finally, I could say I owned it all! But it was then, just as I was about to declare my brand new ownership that Botan appeared.
Her blue hair was in its pony tail. And as I saw her, I realized why she had arrived. She was going to close the loophole.
"I own-" I cried as quickly as possible. But Botan raised her hand and my voice fell mute.
"No, you don't," she said, holding up a piece of paper. "The loophole has officially been closed." Damn. With a bright smile, she asked me, "So what do you have to say?" My voice returned.
"I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho," I sadly muttered.
Quick plug- Anyone who's looking for a good YYH fic should check out Kuwabaralover's (you know, the very peppy girl who always reviews my fics) Fic *Dame Yume* Because it's very well written and the plot is good. And it just overall kicks ass.
But you first have to read mine. ^_^)
R/R because I am the Lizard Queen!! (@_@)

Spirit World:
Koenma was looking into the screen, troubled thoughts that he had believed were to be forever lost in the back of his mind resurfaced. He remembed her as a child, back when things had been different. Back when she'd been innocent.
She'd had jet black hair back then and those same dark eyes. And so much potential. The power had run in her blood and dated back centuries. It was supposed to be used for good. But she'd learned to use her power for something much darker.
"Destiny..." the child whispered the forgotten name.
"Koenma, sir?" The blue ogre called him. When he did not answer, the underling continued, "What are you talking about?... Sir?"
"Hmm?" Koenma awoke from his thoughts and stared at the blue ogre. He was strangely silent, a characteristic that he usually lacked. He shot his worker a pensive look before trying to regain his normal temper. "When's Yusuke fighting, anyway?"
"Um... not for a few turns, sir." The ogre turned his gaze away from the child. *What did he mean about destiny,* the ogre asked himself as he turned back to the screen.
-----
Three hours later:
The first round had ended with a bang. Five sets of fighters had gone on after Ven, but no one could seem to forget her attack. Even as other competitors were being sacrificed in the ring, many demons who sat in the stadium were muttering about the human girl. After five matches had ended, the announcer had gone back into the arena and declared that there would be a small intermission.
After the half hour break, everyone returned to their seats fully refreshed. The Urameshi team took their seats while the demons around them muttered their satisfaction of the violence they had seen during the first half of the day (though, still, some speech returned to the white haired girl).
Yusuke reclined in his seat as he waited for the announcer to return to the arena. "We should almost be up, guys," he said, turning to his friends.
"Alright!" Kuwabara shouted excitedly, his hands balled tightly into fists, "I can't wait to kick demon ass! You won't have to worry about fighting today Urameshi," he grinned, "I've been practicing and know that I can take care of anything our opponents throw at me!"
"Sure you can," Hiei muttered, unimpressed.
"Hey Hiei," Kuwabara turned angrily, "I could take you down too."
"I won't even dignify that with a response," Hiei responded with a slight grin.
"You'll see how dignified it is when I beat your a-" Kuwabara shouted.
"Enough," Botan sighed heavily. She held her hands up and gave each an exasperated look. "Fight your enemies, not each other."
"She's right," Kurama agreed, "We must be prepared for this battle."
"Yes," Botan nodded, "And you must be on the look out for Batos."
"I'm no Detective," Hiei spoke up suddenly with a harsh tone in his voice, "I'm here for the fight, not to hunt down a demon."
"Funny, I thought you'd enjoy a good hunt, Hiei," Yusuke said softly. The demon did not respond to this. He simply crossed his arms over his chest and grunted.
----
"Well, those past five fights sure did fly by, didn't they?" Snape asked his voice still its typical bored tone. He paused before loudly announcing: "It's time for the second round of the Darque Tournament to begin!" The audience roared in excitement.
For a moment, a bright light filled the stadium and music resounded off the walls. When the light disappeared and the music faded, Snape grinned and looked up into the audience. "Let me get some rules and general info out of the way: The second round is team competitions only. Teams with as few as two members and many as six can compete. The winners of this round will be broken until only three groups stand. After that is round three, the wild card round. During that time teams will go up against solitary fighters. There are no rules, no regulations- ANYTHING GOES! " The crowd burst into howls of delight.
"Now," Snape continued, "Will team Heguato and team Urameshi make it to the center ring?"
"Alright!" Kuwabara shouted excitedly, jumping out of his seat and making his way down some steps. "Let's go you guys!"
"Like a kid in a candy store," Yusuke muttered out of the corner of his mouth. Botan grinned. Each of the team made their way down, ignoring the boo's they recieved from the audience.
------
From the highest section of the stadium, she watched. The black cloak was back up, covering her face. Ven did not sit with the audience; to associate with demons in such a way was disgusting to her. She watched each member of the Urameshi team with a hawk-like gaze, summing them up in her mind.
"Finally," she said to no one but herself, "I get to see the famous Spirit Detective at work."
-----
"Aw..." Kuwabara groaned loudly as he viewed the competition, "Why'd it have to be girls?!" He looked over at Yusuke, who only gave him a pitying look. "Come on Urameshi, we can't hit girls."
Both teams were in the center of the arena, a team of four female demons stood before Yusuke's group.
"Are you afraid to hit a girl?" One of the opposing team members asked. She looked much like the leader, wearing a flowing gown and golden circlet atop her light brown hair. There was a calmness that seemed to radiate from her.
"Well... uh...." Kuwabara reached for words.
"Don't be," a second girl interrupted him. Her voice was low and angry. She had blond hair with red streaks and her clothes were tight leather. There was a dangerous glint in her eye. "You're so slow that you'll barely touch us."
"Hey!" Kuwabara shouted. Hiei grinned at his discomfort.
Snape, who stood between the two groups spoke, "Shall we get it over with?"
"Yeah," Yusuke said. Kurama nodded.
"How many members in your team?" Snape asked the girls.
"Five," the leader of the team announced. "One of our members is preoccupied at the moment. She'll be back soon."
"Alright. How about you?" Snaped turned to the boys.
"Four," Yusuke proudly announced.
"What about her?" The announcer pointed toward Botan.
"Me?" Botan chuckled nervously, "Nooooo! I'm just..." She looked back and forth frantically until an idea popped into her head. "I'm here for moral support." In her best cheerleading attempt, she waved her arms around wildly.
"Whatever," Snape said in an apathetic tone. "Take your sides. One on one fights. Whoever's going first stay on stage, the rest get off."
"Who's going first?" Yusuke asked, looking at his friends.
Kurama offered. "I'll do it."
"Everyone off stage," Snape said and they did as told. Only Kurama and a young woman were on stage.
"The first battle of the second round has... BEGUN!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oooh! The fight's begun and it's girls verses guys! I swear to you all that next chappy has some actual fighting. Can't wait to see how that turns out. Ven is watching. But Batos is no where to be found (damn). Don't worry, he'll show up soon.
My reviewers- (^.^) You're all so kind. I luv you guys.
*Rave*Mari*- Thanks alot for the comments.
*Darfonis*- ^_^) Thanks

*Lisa*- hehe. You are *so* milking me for love. ^_^. I promise a small special something for you sometime soon. ^_~) It's a surpise until then. (Question: Do you eat a lot of sugar before posting a review for my chappy's? You seemed really peppy ^_^).
*OniAchika *- Hey. Thanks for putting me on your favs. It's always great to have another fan.
I promise to be posting more often soon. My big test and essay are over and done and now I can turn my attention back to the stuff that reall counts- fanfics. ^_^)
So until then,
