Chapter 5: Round three: Kurama's seed
"TEAM URAMESHI PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR NEXT FIGHTER," the announcer said.
"I will fight him next," Kurama said stepping forward.
Hiei said nothing. He was waiting for the other hooded fighter to fight.
Kurama climbed the platform wall. Slowly he stood up to face Gunta.
"Ahhh the famous Kurama," Gunta said smiling wider, "I had hoped to fight you."
"Prepare your self," Kurama said, "Now that I know your techniques you have no hope of winning."
"Do I now," Gunta said still smiling, "lets make this a quick fight shall we."
Kurama said nothing but starred at Gunta.
~~~~~~~"Gunta is underestimating again," the other hooded fighter said.
"Yes and for that he will not prevail," said one of the twins.
~~~~~~~"Is there any chance of Kurama winning," ogar asked.
"I don't know ogar," Koenma said, "We've seen him do some neat stuff in the past but like Yusuke and Kuwabara he has grown older."
"Wait a second, sir, where is Kuwabara," Ogar asked.
~~~~~~~"AAAAHHHHHH," Kuwabara screamed as he fell from the water like portal into the ocean. Kuwabara sank fast and all he could do was kick and squirm as he kept on sinking. 'Got.to.get to the.surface." All of a sudden Kuwabara heard a deep, calm hum coming from below him. Still kicking he looked down. There was something coming at him, something big and long. Then there it was, a long tentacle reached up for Kuwabara's foot. "BIG SQUID BIG SQUID,' Kuwabara screamed in his head.
The tentacle came at him faster and faster giving Kuwabara the incentive to kick faster and harder though his muscles screamed from the lack of oxygen. Kuwabara's head popped up over the surface. Gulping he took a deep gulp of air. Bubbles began to form all around him now. Remembering that the squid was after him Kuwabara swam with all his might to the shore.
The squid was still following him even though he was getting close to the island.
"I SWEAR NEVER TO EAT CALAMARI AGAIN IF YOU STOP CHASING ME," Kuwabara screamed at the squid.
~~~~~~~Kurama starred at Gunta through angry, leveled eyes.
"Why the glare Kurama, I'll try and make your death as quick as possible," Gunta said walking towards Kurama.
"I'm sorry but you're the one whose going to be screaming for a quick death," Kurama said.
"Oh really," Gunta started, "Tell me Kurama did you ever master turning your self into your Fox form yet."
"Sorry to disappoint you but I'm still perfecting it," Kurama said calmly as he reached over his shoulder to his hair.
"Ah the famous rose whip," Gunta, said, "I'm afraid that won't aid you any time soon."
Kurama looked at Gunta, he was right. The rose whip wouldn't prove anything against his speed. Slowly Kurama lowered his arm away from his hair and let it hang at his side in a tight fist.
~~~~~~~"What is he doing," Hiei said, "With his whip at least he has a chance."
Hiei continued to stare at Kurama. 'Unless he is going to do the technique he has only talked about, the one only Yoko Kurama could do,' Hiei thought to himself. Slowly he turned his head and looked at Chiori. She still laid on the side unconscious. Hiei couldn't quite place it but whenever he looked at her he felt something deep within himself churn, something that he had never felt before.
"Did she move," Yusuke asked.
Hiei looked up at him a little startled from being caught staring at his daughter.
"I thought she did," Hiei lied.
~~~~~~~"Pretty ironic it is that the thing that brings life and keeps it alive will also be the thing to kill you," Gunta said, his smile never fading.
Kurama watched as Gunta raised his hands in the air again. 'I hope he does what I hope he does,' Kurama thought to himself.
"CAGE OF WATER," Gunta shouted.
Kurama looked at the ground, a blue rectangle had formed around him. The ground shook again and the rectangle filled with water. Kurama swam to the top but was stopped by an invisible barrier. Bubbles escaped from his mouth as he slowly lowered himself to the middle of the box.
Kurama starred at Gunta. He could feel his oxygen running lower and his heart start to slow. Slowly he raised his hand in the water and opened his fist that he had been clenching the whole time. As he opened his fist a seed rose from his hand and it glowed an eerie red. Suddenly the seed shot from his hand and through the barrier. As soon as the seed left his hand Kurama's head fell.
Gunta's eyes couldn't follow the seeds path but all he heard was a soft little pat. Then he felt something warm and wet flowing from below his neck. Looking down Gunta saw a small hole at the base of his neck. Gunta's eyes widened as he felt something making its way up his throat.
A leaf pushed past Gunta's lips and a vine had found its way out of the small whole in the base of his neck. Slowly Gunta fell to his knees as he felt the seed grow inside of him and its vines crush his heart.
As soon as his knees hit the ground the box of water surrounding Kurama broke and Kurama was left on the ground choking up water.
~~~~~~~How was that? Again I'm going to say that if I don't get at least 10 reviews I'm not updating for a month or longer! Fine hate me.but it's the truth!
I was looking at all of my reviews for any question you guys had. There weren't that many. So if you do have any questions please ask me.e-mail, AIM.w/e. For the questions that I did have her are my answers.
Someone asked if Hiei likes Chiori or that he was just interested in her. Here's your answer.my first thoughts were to kind of make him develop feelings toward her; you know the whole mumbo jumbo, but now I'm questioning that. Should it be with someone else?
I had another one that was not really a question.they wondered why Yusuke quit the spirit detectives. My only answer is that it was for Keiko. With him in the spirit detective biz it would require dangerous, life threatening assignments, and a lot of time away from home.
So yeah that was mostly it! Any questions do what I said above e-mail me, IM me, or just review and ask if you are lazy.
