Chapter 25
And then the stadium went dead silent. We almost didn't think that he was going to make it. But Yusuke killed Togoru with one final blow with his spirit gun. And that was it. The Dark Tournament was finally over. Well...at least that's what we thought. Yusuke was still hurt,and he was going under a big depression because he thought that Kuwabara had died.
But just like that,Kuwabara had died and everything was ok again. But then Sakyou came over to talk. I didn't do anything this time. The tournament was over. There was no reason to try to kill him now. I couldn't try to...because he was going to blow up the stadium in 15 minutes. I wanted to stop him from leaving...
"SAKYOU!"I yelled. "I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!!" I wanted to follow him,but Kurama would not allow me to do that. He grabbed my arm and hugged me.
"Nicole..."
"Kurama...what the hell is he doing?!"
"Don't worry. Koenma will take care of him."
"Kurama,he's going to get himself killed! I have to do something!"
"No. I can't have you leaving me. Let's go!"
I noticed that Shizuru wasn't with Botan and the others. I wasn't really worried about that though. I was more worried about Kayko. She spaced out and looked like she had gone into a coma. Good thing Yusuke was still alive. Or she might've left us for good.
And then it all happened. The stadium was gone. Luckly Koenma and Shizuru had made it out alive. The only thing that bothered me was that Sakyou wasn't with them. I wanted to go back and find him. But I knew I couldn't do that now. Especially with Kurama still with me. I had to do it in secret.
Before we left,I looked at the remains of the stadium. I was still thinking about Sakyou. I kept wondering if he was still alive. But no,it couldn't be true. He wouldn't have had time to run out of the building. He was gone now. And I had to except that.

I went to Sakyou's gravesite today,only to find out that he wasn't dead. He looked horrible though. I had to find some way to save him.
He was covered by huge pieces of rocks. I started lifting then off of him. Every time I got closer and closer to saving him. At least that's what I thought as I pushed the rocks off of him.
"Nicole..."he said in a silent whisper.
"Hold on Sakyou! I'm going to save you."
"Nicole...stop."
I shook my head in a sadden rage. "No Sakyou. You saved my life! I want to pay you back!"
As I pushed the rocks off of him,he put his hand off my face. "Nicole...stop...please..."
But I wouldn't stop. I couldn't. I had to save him,even if I didn't love him.
His hand then slipped from my face and he stopped breathing. "Sakyou..."I said as I started shaking,doing CPR so he could come back to life again. But nothing worked. I had to realize that he was going to come back.
"SAKYOU NOO!" I buried my face in his shirt and I started crying really hard. "You told me not to cry for you Sakyou! Well god dammit I'm crying for you now!! Why did you have you leave me?! You could have made something great out of yourself Sakyou... Please don't leave me! Not now Sakyou!"
Kurama walked over to my silently so I couldn't hear him. He put his hand on my shoulder. "Nicole..."
"I tried Kurama...I tried to save him..."
"You did want you could."
"It just wasn't good enough..." I hugged him and started crying. "What happened?"
"He wanted it to end this way Nicole. It wasn't his fault."
"He... He saved my life Kurama.... How could I have been so stupid?"
He didn't say anything. He kissed my forehead and waited for me to stop crying. "I'm sorry. I didn't think it would end this way."
"It's not your fault Kurama."
He sighed. "I know. It's time to go back. They're waiting for us."
"You got on ahead. I'll catch up."
He shook his head. "No. It'd be wise if we left now."
I nodded and followed him. Before we left I looked at what was left of Sakyou. I knew I was going to regret this for the rest of my life. But I had tried. I tried to save him. It just wasn't enough...
