Chapter 8: Two Saved, One Lost
"Hey!" Kuwabara yelled and pounded on the door, "Let us out! You can't keep us in here! Let us out!"
"Calm down, Kuwabara," Kurama said from where he sat.
Kaita ruffled her wings irritably. She had sprouted them after the door had been slammed, "Damn it! Why did we follow that man anyway?"
"It's not like we had any better options," said Yuusuke. He was getting annoyed at Kaita's snotty attitude.
Kaita glared at him, "Well you should have known better than to follow someone in this place. Here everyone is the enemy!"
"I didn't here you opposing the idea!"
"Enough!" Kurama yelled, causing the two to stop, "We don't have time to argue. We have to figure out a way out of here."
Kaita and Yuusuke glared at each other one last time and then looked away.
Suddenly, Yuusuke, Kuwabara, and Kaita were thrown off their feet when the dungeon began to shake violently. Kaita fell into Kurama's waiting arms while Kuwabara landed on Yuusuke. The shaking continued for two minutes until, just as suddenly as it had started, the shaking stopped.
"What in all hells was that?" Kaita yelled after Kurama helped her up.
"I don't know," Kuwabara said, "But whatever it is, it isn't good.
"Good job, genius. But how about, instead of thinking about it, you get off my chest! I can't breath!" Yuusuke wheezed.
Kuwabara stood up quickly, and Yuusuke pushed himself up.
Kaita looked around, trying to see what could have caused the minnie earthquake. But she had to cover her ears when a high-pitched screaming suddenly rang through the room.
"Who's screaming?" Kuwabara yelled over the noise.
It suddenly dawned on Kaita as she uncovered her ears, "It's Katie!"
"What?" Yuusuke shouted.
"That's Katie screaming! We have to get to her," Kaita noticed a small crack in the ceiling, "And I know exactly how." She flared her wings, causing Kurama to have to jump back. "Cover you're heads and stay out of my way!" Kaita grinned and flew up, covered her head with her arm and wing, and rammed into the ceiling.
Kurama ran over to her, concern all over his face, "What are you doing? You're going to kill yourself!"
Kaita focused on the hole in the ceiling, which was becoming bigger, "There is no way - SLAM - that I'm gonna - SLAM - let that poor - SLAM - girl - SLAM - die!" Kaita broke through the ceiling, showering Yuusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama with debris. She landed on the floor outside the hole and smiled, breathing hard.
The room she had broken into was large with a high vaulted ceiling. It looked like a library, but the books on the many shelved didn't look like they had been read for a very long time.
Yuusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama jumped out of the hole in the floor. They stared in awe at the room they were in. They tried to ignore the screaming, which was louder in the new room.
"Kaita, you're bleeding!" Kurama said with concern.
Kaita flexed her wing, making a few drops of blood fly from a cut a piece of brick had made. She ignored it, and instead looked at the ceiling, "I think I'm ok enough to make a few more holes."
She flew up again, gaining momentum as she rose. It was enough speed to break through three ceilings without having to stop. When she finally made her last hole, she pulled out her sword. She turned to see Katie screaming in the machine, and Hiei unconscious. The sight made her eyes narrow as she landed on the roof.
Bito was pale, his eyes wide. He had thought his brother had taken care of the intruders. 'Koi will have to be punished,' he thought.
The others leapt up onto the roof around Kaita.
"Spirit Gun!" Yuusuke yelled and a burst of energy came out of his finger. It shot through the main cable of the machine, causing the machine to shut down. Katie went limp where she was tied. The portal in the sky closed completely.
"No!" Bito yelled, "The portal! It's gone!"
"And an innocent girl's life was saved," Yuusuke said, "Personally, I like the exchange."
Bito glared at them, "Guards! Kill them!"
Five guards ran at the four heroes.
"Shotgun!" Yuusuke punched all the guards at incredible speeds. They flew back, dead.
Bito stepped back, a look of pure terror on his face. Kaita smiled smugly at him. "Scared, Bito?" she asked.
"N-n-no," Bito stammered. Suddenly, there was a sound of stomping feet coming from below. Fifty guards ran up the stares and flanked Bito to his right and left. Bito looked around, and then smiled evilly at the spirit detectives. "I'm not scared."
Kaita shifted her sword into both hands. Kuwabara made his double spirit swords. Kurama pulled out his rose whip. And Yuusuke charged up his spirit energy.
"Kaita, you and Kurama get Katie," Yuusuke whispered, "Kuwabara, try to find Hiei. Ok?" They all nodded. "Ok, lets fight!"
Yuusuke charged at the guards and began to fight wildly with his spirit-energy-loaded fists. Kuwabara slashed left and right with his spirit swords. Kaita was batting people left and right with her wings, and was cutting anyone who could dodge them. Kurama seemed to be everywhere. No demon guard could withstand his rose whip.
"Kurama!" Kaita yelled as she reached the machine, "Guard my back! I'll cut Katie down and fly her out of here." She cut through the metal cuffs that held Katie's feet first. Then she freed her hands. "See ya, Kurama!" Kaita flared her wings and was about to take off. But a demon managed to get past Kurama, and he cut off a large portion of Kaita's left wing. She screamed, and dropped her knees from the pain.
"Kaita!" Kurama shouted as he sliced the demon's head off, "Kaita, are you alright?"
"Yah," Kaita gasped, "I'll live," she recalled her wings, but there was still a small trickle of blood coming down her back.
"Guys!" Kuwabara yelled, "I got Shorty!"
"Lets go!" Yuusuke led the way down the stares. They ran through room after room and down tons of stairs and passageways. The demons slowly but surely caught up with them. Kaita, who was at the back of the group, decided to keep them at bay as they ran.
"Here, Kurama," she said and handed him Katie, "Take her. I'm going to make these demons pay." She pulled out her sword and swiped at the demons that got too close. She was doing a very good job of keeping the back safe, until two demons cut her off. She tried to kill them, but one of them pulled out a sword and blocked her attack. She soon found herself battling for her life against ten demons surrounding her.
Kurama turned, and to his horror saw that Kaita was surrounded by demons. "Kaita!" he yelled and stopped running.
"Kurama, go!" Kaita shouted and blocked an attack at her head.
"Kaita, I -"
"Go, baka! You have to get Katie out. Don't worry about me. I can handle myself."
"But - "
"Kurama, come on!" Yuusuke shouted.
Kurama took one last look at Kaita, and ran out of the castle and into the forest.
Kaita saw Kurama go out of the corner of her eye. She smiled with grim satisfaction and managed to lop off the head of one of her attackers. But she knew she was getting overwhelmed. Suddenly, the ground began to shake. Kaita looked up. Terror struck her through the bone as she saw a huge man walk up to where she was fighting. The demons she had been fighting backed away from her.
"Who are you?" the man boomed in a deep voice.
Kaita took a defensive stance and glared at him. "I could ask you the same question."
He reached down. Kaita scrambled to get away from him, but he picked her up off the floor. He squeezed her, causing her to drop her sword.
"You helped the portal girl escape!" he bellowed, "You ruined my magnificent plan. You will suffer and die for this!" He squeezed her harder. Kaita tried to free herself, but soon found it hard just to breath. She gritted her teeth to keep from screaming, and then passed out.
