problems with commitment. I know I'm definitely going to

get some people popping up on my yelling at me for

discontinuing this thing. Enjoy the last chappy ya'll!-

"Ew!" moaned Botan as they walks through a we marsh.

"Shut up woman," Hiei growled angrily at her. "We need

to be quiet Botan," warned Willow," Nephalus has an

excellent sense of hearing." Yusuke walked around a

particularly soft piece of ground, "And you know that?"

Kat decided at this moment to speak up so that Willow

could watch for Nephalus, "He's an old enemy of ours.

We've been after him for a long time."

"Hush," Willow warned in a harsh voice, "He's nearby,

I can smell him." Kuwabara wrinkled his nose, "You can

smell him?" Willow turned on him not having to say

anything at all. All the warning was in her intense gaze.

"Shush," was all she said.

They continued in silence for several hours. "You don't

suppose he's gone do you?" Kurama asked, breaking the

silence. Yusuke and Kuwabara jumped, and Kat and

Willow both shushed him. Kat's ear twitched, " Willow,"

She started to say but Willow cut her off. " I know." Hiei

suddenly turned to face the trees to their left, " He's here."

Willow turned to face the shrubbery as a giant serpent emerged.

Yusuke looked up and whistled, " Damn that's one big snake." Kat

rolled her eyes "Thank you Mr. Obvious."

"Don't turn on our accomplices Kat, we need their help," scolded

Willow. Kat rolled her eyes again. Yusuke stood, his Spirit Gun ready,

beside Kuwabara, who had his spirit sword. Kurama stood with his

rosewhip beside Hiei, who had unsheathed his sword. Willow and Kat

stood readily watching the serpent that was Nephalus.

"So finally decide to show your ugly face?" Willow shouted up at

him, "Too bad you're not going to be able to show it off very long!"

The serpent looked down upon them and spotted Willow. Then said in a

rather hiss-like voice, "And why would that be? I have jusssst barely

gotten here." Kat smirked, " Cause we're gonna kick your scalley asssss

that'sssss why!" She said mocking him by hissing on the S's. "Why you

little bitch!" He shouted lunging at Kat who jumped out of the way.

Hiei who was just beside her narrowed his eyes, searching for a weak

point. Willow and Kat were used to this and knew what was coming

next. Willow stepped forward and spoke calmly and clearly, "Go for his

mouth or eyes as soon as he lunges at us again, but be sure to avoid the

after wave it can hit you pretty hard."

The gang stared at her for a moment then nodded in unison. Hiei

continued to stare at her for a moment, 'How the hell could she think of

that so quickly? She has the situation completely analyzed.It would

have taken Kurama a while after he started fighting to figure that out.'

He thought as they waited for Nephalus to lunge down at them again.

Nephalus plunged down into the ground and Hiei went to the left

along with Kat, Kurama, Yusuke, and Kuwabara. They were showered

with dirt and rocks as he hit the ground. Then he repelled himself off a

tree and hit Nephalus in one of his golden snake eyes. Yusuke hit him in

the corner of his mouth with his spirit gun and Kurama got his other eye

as he looked their way, with his rose whip. Hiei attempted to remove his

katana before Nephalus raised his head again but it wouldn't come

loose. With a roar of anger Nephalus rose up taking Hiei and his katana

with him. "Damn it!" Hiei shouted as he was raised through the air.

"Hiei!" Willow ran up to the swinging body of Nephalus looking for

a way to get up. She ran over to the trees and jumped up into it then

onto the top of Nephalus's head from there. "Willow!" Kat yelled after

her, "What the hell do you think you're doing!?" Willow looked back

down at her from the head of Nephalus who was now swinging back

and forth trying to get the katana out of his eye and the demon off his

head. Nephalus started to swing his head harder and threw Willow off

into a tree.

Hiei looked back at her then turned back to his katana and tried once

again to get it out with no success. Kat ran to Willow followed by the

Kurama, " Are you ok Willow?" Kat asked worry on the edge of her

voice. Willow nodded, "Just fine." She stood up and looked up at the

demon who was still swinging madly with Hiei hanging onto it. "We

need to find a way to get him down." Kurama and Kat nodded in

agreement. Kat and Kurama walked back down into the battle field. Kat

started to throw balls of fire at Nephalus making him roar even louder

and swing ever more violently. Kurama started to use his rosewhip on

him which really didn't help matters to say the least. Willow jumped

back into the tree and back onto Nephalus's head, sinking her claws into

his scales to keep hold.

"Shit!" She yelled, her eyes darting left and right. Her eyes grew

wide as she spotted a red scale she hadn't noticed in any of her previous

battles with the snake demon. The scale was at the peak of his head. She

smirked, 'This bastard's going down!' she thought as she clawed her

way up to the scale with some difficulty. Nephalus was making it

extremely hard for her to get there but she made it nonetheless.

She raised her free hand and sank her claws into the scale. She

looked surprised as her claws hit the flesh under the scales much sooner

then she had anticipated. Then she smirked, "GOTCHA!"

He roared in pain and shook his head violently, throwing her off.

Hiei's katana just happened to come loose at the same time. Hiei was

the first to hit the ground followed by Willow who hit right beside him.

Luckily for them Nephalus's body chose to fall in the opposite

direction.

Willow sat up holding her head, "Ow." she moaned and noticed

Hiei beside her. " Hey Hiei, are you ok?" Hiei sat up also holding his

head, "Hn." Willow laughed and the others came up looking confused.
