~*~*~Too late to go back~*~*~
A/n you'd think that this story would be over soon, well, I have no idea how long it's going to be… ^_^;;; sorry! We're getting closer to the end of the tournament, but then I have this thing at the end which will take a while. BUT! After that! I'll start the Harry Potter YYH crossover. HURRAY! ^_^ well, enjoy!
"Proceed." Sayko said into the walkie-talkie.
"Proceed with what?!" Yusuke demanded. His hands grew into tight fists and his teeth clenched.
Toguro chuckled somewhat.
"I think you'll enjoy this Yusuke." He said.
"Why don't you watch and see." He pointed up towards the girls as a faint smirk swept his face.
Yusuke snapped his head toward the direction of Toguro's bony finger.
'I don't get it,' he thought, 'nothing happened.'
Then suddenly…
~*~*~
"Botan, what are they doing down there?" Yukina asked.
"I don't know, Shizuru?"
"I have no idea… But, something bad is going to happen. Keiko, what's wrong?" Shizuru asked, realizing that Keiko had been staring into nothing for a while.
Keiko didn't respond. She was too deep in thought.
'Yusuke, why didn't you ever tell me these things? Did you think I would tell, that I wouldn't be able to keep a secret like this?'
"Oh my Kami! Keiko! Watch out!" Botan shrieked.
"Wha-" Keiko suddenly felt cold flesh wrap around her neck.
Keiko could hear the broken laugh of a very familiar voice. She gasped for breath, trying to get the hands off of her throat. Then it went very cold. Keiko closed her eyes to focus her energy on breathing.
"Let go of Keiko!" Yukina threatened, unleashing her ice powers on the attacker.
"I don't think so," he said. Punching a blow at Yukina, who feel to the ground hard.
"Yukina!" Botan cried, letting her knees fall to the ground to help Yukina.
"JERK!" Shizuru yelled trying to land a blow to the attacker. But, Keiko couldn't hear the other person groaning or anything, her must have avoided the blows. But how? How could someone move that fast? Than it dawned on her. Of coarse her attacker was getting hit. He could move his body. He was elder Toguro.
~*~*~
"KEIKO!" Yusuke screamed.
"WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO TO HER?" He yelled at Toguro. "Know what? It doesn't matter, because you won't have her. HOLD ON KEIKO! I'M COMING!" (a/n- :is eating popcorn reading what she is writing intensely: ^_^ cute! Why doesn't he say things like that more often?)
"I don't think so, if you move one step towards her, she'll die instantly." Toguro informed him.
"…" Yusuke didn't say anything, he just closed his eyes. Suddenly, a huge amount of energy exploded from him. But his face remained as solemn as ever, he slowly opened his eyes, his face still as straight as an arrow. His energy twirled around his body in a twister of emotions.
"What do you want Toguro?" He asked in a clam voice, no anger or furry. Only sadness. (if you've bought the DVD's, you know what I'm talking about.)
"Do you want me to forfeit? So than you can win? What do you want from me? My death? What do you want from me?"
"Yusuke, I don't want anything from you except your best."
"You don't think I've been trying?" He said, his energy exploding more violently, anger in his voice.
"No. Look at all of your energy left. I want your best. And if I have to kill the girl to get that, so be it."
~*~*~
"I'll take the girl." Elder Toguro hissed. Keiko felt the wind rush past her and suddenly he dropped her on the ground. When Keiko opened her eyes, she saw she was in a dark vacant room.
~*~*~
"Er… aren't there any rules against this? Koto? Do you know if there are any rules against taking hostages?" Jury asked.
"Well, umm… I don't think it's against the rules. I would think that Toguro would do something a little more honorable, but than again; if it was against the rules, who would be able to stop him?" Koto said, mostly to herself.
"Than um, I guess we can't do anything except for watch! Let's see, can someone get a camera into the hostage room so we can see?"
Magically, picture of Keiko in the dark room came into view on the big screen.
"Well, that was… prompt." Koto remarked.
"How do they get the camera's in the room so fast Koto?" Jury asked.
"Well Jury, they- um… simply… gee ^_^;;; I don't know. How do they get those in the room so fast and who exactly are 'they'? those are the mysteries of the dark tournament I guess!"
A/n well, there you go! ^_^ another chapter! I would write more, but I'm sick. So this is all you get for now. R&R!
