I became a little bored so here's the next chapter to Universe's Greatest! It's been awhile!

Disclaimer: You all know I don't own none of these except for the ones you never heard of but I don't own the evil shadow dragons from GT

Chapter 4: Phinny's cheerleaders

It was early morning the next day and Phoenix felt like she didn't get any sleep at all. She grunted as she would roll on her side, Eros spread out with her mouth wide open, little drool coming out when Genkai came in and yelled," I thought you would be up already slacker!!"

That ringing tone woke up the two, right away. Phoenix grunted again. "UGH! I wish you weren't psychic so I can actually lock my door! PHHOOEY!"

_______________________________________________________________

2 girls were waiting outside the grounds where all the demons were standing around, hoping they would see someone they knew. One with navy-blue colored crimped hair and the other, a rather tall girl with her brown hair in a high pony tail.

"Paisley, are you sure today was the day?" the taller girl asked the slightly smaller one.

"Yeah, that's what Koenma said. I'm sure we'll be able to see Botan around here."

            "Paisley! Excel!"

The two girls looked and waved at Botan who happened to be arriving with Keiko and Shizuru, letting out a girlish giggle. "I knew you two would be coming here!"

            As Botan had her reunion with the two girls, Shizuru and Keiko were just left there.

"Botan, if you don't mind me asking," started Shizuru. "Why don't you introduce us to them?"

            "Yeah Botan, don't be so rude."

Botan chuckled for a second before doing so. "Shizuru, Keiko, this," She pointed her hand at Paisley," is Paisley Ureanti(pronounced: U-ren-ty-as in the I in I am Sam) and Excel."

            Keiko gasped, " You said Ureanti? Phoenix's last name is Ureanti."

"Oh yes..." Paisley bowed. "Phoenix is my big sister."

            (I'm struck in the heart. Really)

            Excel seemed annoyed. "Oh, if you're wondering who the heck I am, I'm just a childhood friend of Phoenix's..."

"....I thought Phoenix didn't have any friends?"

________________________________________________________________________

            Still weary from sleep, Phoenix, with the encouragement of Eros got up with out contempt and headed down to her team's side of the gate where the others were already waiting.

            "It's about time," taunted Kuwabara. "Or did Miss-All-That didn't get enough sleep?"

"Why won't you just shut up, ugly."

            "I am not ugly, OKAY?!"

But before Kuwabara could retaliate any more, the doors opened for the tournament to begin.

___________________________________________________________________________________

            Up in the VIP Boxes, Koenma was having his sights to see what a turn out this soon tournament came to be when he stopped at the young girls trying to find some seats themselves. "Holy Toledo! WHAT THE HECK ARE THEY DOING THERE?!"

            Koenma's assistant, Ogre came and peeked for himself. "Shizuru and Keiko? I thought they just came to cheer on our team."

            "Not them, you balooka! The other two new ones."

"Hm?"

"Not Botan!"

            The Blue Ogre gasped. "Paisley and Excel? What are they doing here?"

"That's what I was just asking!"

            "Sorry sir. From all the times you yell at me, I tend to get ear infections."

Koenma growled and looked again. "If Phoenix sees them, her concentration'll be ruined!"

            "Why's that sir?"

"....those two were supposed to be in hiding from the major rut they were in! Now, Phoenix'll have the responsibility to look after them and the tournament! Now that's too much pressure!"

            "You said it," Blue Ogre totally agreed. "Waiting on you limb and foot is just exhausting!"

______________________________________________________________________________________________

                        The greetings were started by everyone's lovable fox-girl Koto as the Tournament began!!!

Team Urameshi's opponents? A team of shadow dragons?(you may recognize them from DBGT)

            "This is lame," Yusuke scoffed. "We're returning champions and they give us dragons for our first match?"

"You shouldn't doubt these dragons, Yusuke," said Kurama, with a slight tone of worriment in his voice. "These dragons appear stronger as they appear."

            "No way," Kuwabara stepped up. "They're just pitiful looking dragons. Just leave the fights to me; I can take 'em!"

"Kurama's right, fool," said Hiei. "I guess your senses aren't fully aware to their strength."

            "Why don't you just shut up?"

"Hn. Try coming up with better come backs."

            "I'll just do that!"

            "Huh?" Phoenix turned. She sensed some familiar people. Very familiar.

"What's wrong with you now?" asked Yusuke. "Is it that time of the month?"

            Phoenix punched him one over the head. "RUDE!..." But then she turned again. "I thought I sensed my sister around here."

"Your sister?" the other four repeated.

            "You're not the only one of Genkai's?" Kurama asked.

"No, I'm not." Phoenix dusted her shoulders off. "But as long as you guys are in conversation, I'll go up first."

            She walked up as Kuwabara just held his fist in anger.

Over on the other side, one of the shadow shenrons, the large green one stepped up. "Eh heh heh...so this girl thinks she can beat the mighty Haze Shenron, huh?!"

            "Okay, this guy's a total loser! His energy is too low!" Phoenix thought to herself as she made her way towards Koto as did Haze.

            "Go Phoenix!"

"We're rooting for you!"

            Right through the heart, Phoenix knew that feeling.

She turned along with the others to see Paisley and Excel sitting with the others waving.

            "Crap!!" Phoenix thought. "What are they doing here?!"

"Who're they?"  Yusuke wondered.

            "Hm..." Kurama rubbed his chin. "It seems that her sister and her friend are still alive."

"SISTER?!" Like another different reaction.

            Kuwabara seemed dumbfounded but his face looked like how it looked like when he first saw Yukina on the video. His sights seemed to be upon the girl named Paisley.

            "Don't tell me ?" said Hiei, annoyed by Kuwabara's expression. "You're in love?"

He said nothing.

            On the ring, Koto gave the word. "And let the match begin!"

"Lets get this over with!" Phoenix started her first harsh words as she disappeared and appeared right in front of Haze just to slap him in which he easily fell onto his side of the ring....hurt....this duel seemed very stupid right now.

            Phoenix landed on her feet, sort of confused. "I hardly slapped you. It was just a hard impact with a lot of pushing pressure."

Haze got up as if that slap was the last attack before his utter demise. "You think you got the best of me huh?"

            Koto herself was also confused. "People, I'd have to agree with Phoenix on this one. That was hardly a slap. I mean seriously, who would let dragons into a demon tournament?"

            Haze got up back to his feet. He seemed to chuckle as if he enjoyed that slap.

"You want more, huh?!" Here's a thing about Phoenix. When her opponents seem to do nothing for awhile after getting a beating from her, Phinny gets easily provoked on that they really want more.

            Kicking and punching gifts was what Haze was getting as the crowd seemed to be in awe in what the granddaughter of Genkai seemed to be doing to this dragon. One last kick and Haze was down again.

            "Just give up already and let our team take this victory. It'll save you more pain."

The dragon growled, yet, he laughed.

            "Hm?!"

The monstrous beast stood up again as Koto walked over to Phoenix. "It seems that after Phoenix's vigorous beatings, this dragon won't stay down!"

            Annoyed, Phoenix glared at her, "I think the crowd would know that already by what they could see."

"Sorry, just doing my job!"

            A sudden feeling of greater power appeared as Phoenix looked at her opponent who seemed to be taking in air and growing larger and larger.

            "Careful Phoenix!" Yusuke yelled. "His power seems to be rising!"

Phoenix got into her fighting stance. "I'm ready for anything! Transform!"

            As huge as a giant balloon, he just stood there.

"WELL?! I don't have all day!"

            "Don't bother wasting her time, Dragon!" Hiei told Haze. "You'll get her more provoked to actually kill you."

"I...uh...my friends over there can transform...but..." He blushed. "I cannot."

            "Huh?" Phoenix seemed calm for a moment as she fell; Yusuke and Kuwabara fell along with the whole crowd and Koto herself of Haze stupid attempt as he grew back to regular size.

_________________________________________________________________________

            Shizuru sat back up as did the others. "What a lame opponent here. Who does he think he is? A Celebrity?"

Excel rubbed her head and chuckled," I'm gunna have to agree on that one."

_________________________________________________________________________________

            "I don't know about you people but that made me really angry and as much as I don't want to say this but Phoenix, beat him for me, please?"

            Phoenix shook her head as Haze laughed again. "What are you laughing at? Did you eat some bad stuff?"

He was ready. So was Phoenix when she jumped. But landed so quickly. "Huh? Hey! I got weight!"

            "What are you talking about? Of course you have weight!" Yusuke shouted. "It wouldn't hurt to lose some too!"

"Shut up!" Phoenix was getting quite annoyed by this boy now but did a little test as she jumped up and down. Up and down.

            Crud.

"My powers are shut..." She stared at Haze Shenron. "What did you do?!"

            "Eh hehehehehehe....I didn't do anything. Now why don't we get this fight going on?" He disappeared as Phoenix was on her guard. She was ready...even though her powers seemed gone.

            Yusuke gasped as Haze appeared right behind her and kicked her straight in the back.

Phoenix's body skid a few feet away. She groaned. "Now that's pain." She weakly got up and noticed Haze wasn't there again. "Where'd he go? I can't sense him."

            He appeared again behind her and elbowed her body down hard into the concrete in which he also smashed his foot onto her back. Phoenix let out a loud scream.

            "Ooh! Do you hear that people? A rousing, delicious-sounding scream from Phoenix! Doesn't it just sound wonderful?"

BAM BAM BAM, stomp after stomp after stomp, scream after scream after scream. Haze was defiantly getting the strong point here. But how? How on Earth is he now getting the advantage in which Phoenix can't fight back?

Stay tuned for the next chapter!
