(Chapter 6: The end of the Tournament (Kila's POV))
I helped Kurama and Koenma carry Hiei to a room where he could lay down. I watched him as he slept and suddenly, Yusuke came in and told me to come outside for a moment.
"You like Hiei, don't you, Kila?" Yusuke asked, grinning and chuckling slightly.
"Y-yes. So what if I do?" I asked, getting defensive.
"Nothing! Nothing at all!" Yusuke said, putting his hands in front of him. "I was just curious!"
"Yeah, well, curiosity killed the cat, or, in this case, Yusuke Urameshi," I growled, glaring at Yusuke. We both looked over at the ring when we heard a loud noise. Toguro had carried the ring from the old stadium to this one. "Hn. Show off," I muttered, glaring at Toguro's back.
Yusuke smiled at me and I smiled back. He said, "Don't worry. I won't tell anyone your 'secret'."
"What do you mean by that?" I asked, looking up. Yusuke grinned and winked.
"Well, the only two people that really don't know that you like Hiei are Yukina and Kuwabara," Yusuke said, "but I didn't tell them. It was rather obvious, so we just let you two figure it out yourselves."
"Yusuke," I growled, but, at that moment, Hiei came out the door and looked at us oddly. I sighed and let Yusuke get away with teasing me this time, but not for long.....
Yusuke quickly ran down to the ring from the look of pure insanity and evilness in my eyes. I smirked as I watched him get back to the ring so that the fights could continue. I followed him, more slowly, and Hiei, Kurama, and Koenma followed me. (CoughToddlercough)
It was Kuwabara's turn in the ring. HE and Older Toguro talked for a few moments, and Kuwabara learned of Genkai's death. I was shaking with suppressed rage. I glared at older Toguro and, if looks could kill, Toguro would be 50x dead and still going.
Finally, with, what seemed like, the last of his strength, Kuwabara lifted his sword above his head and yelled out "SPIRIT FLYSWATTER!", bringing it down on Toguro, who seemed to be dead. (::Bursts out laughing from the "Spirit Flyswatter" thing::)
Kuwabara came out of the ring, his victory achieved, and punched Yusuke across the face. They talked for a few moments, but I wasn't paying attention. I was looking down, saddened. Then I heard Yusuke say, "But I can't apologize for dealing with her death the only way I know how," and turned around to see him walk into the ring.
Yusuke and Toguro were attacking each other almost non-stop and the ring was now completely non-existent. Toguro had destroyed it and there were now only chunks of the ring left. Toguro's demon energy was also moving out, melting some of the lower-class demons in the stands.
I moved behind Hiei with a small squeak of fright as some of the energy came uncomfortably close to me. I felt a small pain in my left arm, the one that was closer to the ring, and looked down to see a rather nasty burn where a tiny bit of the energy had made contact with my skin.
"I think you better get behind me," Koenma said as he put up an energy shield. Puu did the same thing for the girls in the stands. After a few minutes of fighting, Puu left and told Yukina and Shizuru to keep the energy shield up. It turned out that Genkai was in Puu's body and she told Toguro that the only way to make Yusuke get to his full power was to kill one of his friends.
Toguro walked over and looked at Kuwabara. He punched Kuwabara in the chest, killing him. Not instantly, but still killing him.
Yusuke's power skyrocketed, as did mine. Hiei and Kurama had to keep a tight hold on me to stop me from running in the fight and blowing Toguro to bits.
Eventually, Yusuke and Toguro decided to go all out, one shot, one on one. Yusuke powered up his most powerful Spirit Gun ever and aimed at Toguro, who used his power to block the attack. Eventually, Toguro died and Yusuke looked blearily around.
"Am I... alive?" Yusuke asked, looking up at us.
"Of course you are! Do you see little halo's above our heads?" Koenma asked, and I shot him a death glare.
"Yusuke," I said, my voice soft. "It'll all be alright soon. Just don't go to sleep quite yet."
Yusuke looked over at Kuwabara's body and then back to the ground. He then gave a "speech" and then.....
"Joking! Okay, I think you've done enough groveling today, even though it is pretty funny!" Kuwabara said, jumping up and grinning.
Yusuke had a shocked face on as he looked at his supposedly dead best friend. "Hey! What's a dead guy doing walking around?!"
"Well, I tried to tell you, but you were so involved in your speech..." Kurama trailed off, then told Yusuke that Kuwabara never died. It was all just an act to get Yusuke to be able to get to his power.
Hiei then reprimanded Yusuke, but, as it turned out, Yusuke didn't even hear him. He was busy beating the sh!t out of Kuwabara. I was practically dying laughing and Kurama and Koenma were smiling slightly. Hiei had the most adorable, confused, shocked expression on his face, making me squeal slightly. (hey, ya can't help the fangirl moments!)
Then, the stadium was set to self destruct. We all started to run out, but the entrance/exit was blocked.
"MOVE!" I screamed as I put my hands in front of me and blasted the wall down, nearly hitting Jin, Touya, Chuu, and Rinku in the process.
"Hey! Watch where yer aiming that thing, Urameshi!" Jin said, moving quickly.
"That wasn't me, Jin," Yusuke said, looking at me. "That was her." All the others looked at me as well.
"Can we just move already?! I'm not quite ready to be squished in a stadium!" I yelled, ushering everyone out. Right when I was about to go through, a part of the wall fell. Hiei flitted back to get me and then ran back to the others.
"Thank you, Hiei," I said softly. Hiei just "Hn"ed and turned away. I smiled and watched as Shizuru, Koenma, and George came out and stood next to us.
"Oh, no!" Botan said. "You didn't get your wishes!"
"It doesn't matter," Yusuke said hollowly. "Those idiots in the committee couldn't give us what we wanted, anyway," Yusuke said.
"And, what was it we wanted?" Botan asked hesitantly. She looked around at everyone and Yusuke took a few steps forward, looking up at the sky.
"We finished it, Genkai!" He shouted, and I looked down, a tear slowly making it's way down my face. I felt Hiei brush it away and hold me tightly in a comforting hug.
