35. Spirit Assistance
"Just who do you thin you are?" Rugal asked while eyeing the Sprit Detective. Yusuke, who was in his firing pose, put his arm down and walked calmly towards Rugal.
"Looks like you don't fit the description I got," Yusuke started while stopping a few inches in front of Rugal. "You got the freaky skin, though, but it sure doesn't match what you're wearing."
"What type of fool are you?"
Yusuke smirked. "If you must know I'm the type of fool that likes to kick ass first and ask questions later." A pause, then, "Hey, Boton."
Right behind Yusuke came the blue-haired woman, wearing casual clothes and sneakers.
"Yeah, Yusuke?" she asked from near a close-by tree. just before she eyes the bogies of the three teens on the ground. She gasped just as Yusuke spoke.
"You think you can help them?" Yusuke asked.
"Yeah, no problem," was her response, starting to head towards Sakura S. Rugal saw this and warped in front of her, cutting her off as well as spooking her.
"Going somewhere?" he asked evilly. "I don't think they'll be needing you're assistance."
"Funny. I expected more from someone like you."
Rugal heard an entirely new voice. and yelled in pain as felt steal across his chest. Hiei appeared out of nowhere and struck him with his sword, enabling Boton to carry out Yusuke's request. Hiei simple stood up and looked down at Rugal, who dropped to his knees in pain.
"I have fought demons and opponents way stronger than you. You're nothing. I think its best that I kill you instead of letting you go. It's much more satisfying to the end of the job."
"You." Rugal murmured under his breath. "I didn't. even sense him coming."
"Yeah, he's pretty pathetic." Yusuke commented while walking towards Rugal. "Toguro was way harder. I mean, if those three were at full strength they would have taken him out easily."
"Heh. I'm just surprised they contained so much energy. and they are normal humans." Hiei added.
"Watch it, Hiei," Yusuke smirked. "You're forgetting who you're teaming up with."
"Yusuke. you're anything but normal," the shorter demon countered.
"Whatever." Yusuke finally put his attention on Rugal, who just about ready to recover and said, "Will you do the honors?"
Hiei shook his head in pity, putting his hand on his sword.
SHING!!!
Rugal's now lifeless body now lay on the ground and Hiei put his sword away at his side.
"He wouldn't have lasted even a day in the demon world," Hiei extended his speed. "That first on, maybe. but this one? Not even close."
"Yusuke!" Boton shouted at the other side of the area. I'm finished getting these three up to speed."
Yusuke turned just as Darrell stepped up to him. This time he didn't display any anger. He was somewhat relieved.
"Yusuke. It's pretty clear that you're stronger than me. I couldn't even phase that freak."
"That's because you weren't at 100%" Yusuke reassured while giving a quick smile. "I saw you fight the Akuma guy from the side. If that's your real power. then I'll have a rematch sometime with you."
"Yeah. I'll look forward to it."
"SAKURA!!!"
Everyone turned towards the woods where Hinata came running from and watched her stop next to Sakura K. and give her a big hug.
"Sakura! What were you thinking!? I thought you were going to die if Yusuke and his team didn't come."
"So you saw us, too?" Sakura K. asked before considering what her friend said. "That's what I thought, too. I'm just lucky I didn't die."
"Stupid." Hinata let out again while releasing Sakura K. "I'm just glad you're fine now."
"Now that's two down," Sakura S. mumbled loud enough so that everyone could hear. "We're missing one more."
Everyone turned quiet after that. Only the sound of wind rushing by was heard.
"Yusuke." Darrell called while looking at the late Rugal's body. "We gotta destroy that energy before something else happens."
"I'm on it."
Yusuke aimed his pointer finger at Rugal's chest. A blue ball of energy rested on its tip. then he fired. This Spirit Gun was a lot wider than normal, obliterating the body. This time there was no aura residue. There was a smoking hole in the earth.
"You are going to have to teach me that," Darrell told Yusuke.
Yusuke gave a twisted smirk. "Yeah, sure." he replied sarcastically.
"Oh. I'm hurt, Yusuke." Darrell returned the sarcasm. but just then he was really hurting. A sudden headache arose within him, making him hold his head and yell out.
"Hey! What now?!" Yusuke yelled.
"Darrell! What's wrong?!" Sakura K. asked, worried.
"I. I. I don't know!!"
Just then, a white aura covered his body, shone bright. and exploded into a flash of light.
