"Are we ever gonna get out of here ?" asked Shippo. "I hope so" said serenity. "lights out hank !" said one of the girls. "whatever" hank said. The lights in the room went off and the moonlight shone through the window. It had been another very hard days work, but serenity didn't complain. "your pretty strong for a hanyou" said hank. "thanks" said serenity as she sat up and one of her legs were crossed over the other. "I feel him coming" said Shippo. "I do too, and he's mad !" said serenity. Serenity and Shippo felt Hiei's energy, and he was coming at a fast rate. "if I escape, you wanna come with me ?" asked serenity. "me ?" asked hank. "sure, I like you, your cool" said serenity. hank blushed and nodded. "your so cute when you blush !" said serenity cutely. Serenity held up her magic leaf and dropped it off the side of the balcony. "It'll be some use for Hiei" said Shippo. "I hope it gets to him" said serenity.
(down on solid ground)
"her energy is coming from up there" said Kurama. "up in the sky, how the hell do we get up there ?" asked Yusake. "im thinking, im thinking !!" shouted Hiei. "look !" shouted Kuwabara as he pointed to something floating down from the sky. It was a leaf, a rather freakishly large leaf. "that's serenity's ! she must've known we we're coming !" said Hiei. "then what are we waiting for ?! lets hurry and get up there !" shouted Kuwabara. Everyone got on the leaf and it started flying back up to the sky. Unfortunately, it was going pretty darn slow. "cant this stupid thing fly faster ?!" shouted Yusake. "its because were all on it !! one of us should get off !!" yelled Hiei. "we'll need all the back up we can get. If serenity was easily captured, theres no telling how powerful this enemy is" said Kurama. "well, just sit back and enjoy the ride until we get there" sad Yusake. "I don't even know why we're saving this brat anyway !" shouted Kuwabara.
(back in the sky)
"get up !!!" shouted Miroku as he kicked serenity in her side. "hey !! leave her alone !!" shouted hank. "you stay out of this !!" yelled Miroku. Miroku grabbed serenity up by her hair. "owww !!! Let me go you jerk !!!" shouted serenity. "Kagura wishes to see you right now !!" shouted Miroku. "In the middle of the night ?!" shouted hank. Miroku dragged serenity off by her hair, all the while serenity shouted 'let go'. Hank and Shippo secretly followed behind them.
When Miroku reached the place Kagura stayed, he threw serenity near her. "I brought her as you commanded" said Miroku as he bowed. Serenity got up and was in a kneeling position in front of Kagura. Shippo and Hank watched from around a corner. "Pathetic half-breed, it's nice to see you kneeling before me" said Kagura. Serenity snarled and got up to her feet. "Never in a million years will I kneel before you, you witch !!" yelled serenity. Then, Kagura slapped serenity across her face. Serenity fell to the floor and rubbed her stinging cheek.
"It seems we have to teach you to watch your mouth around anyone superior to you !" shouted Kagura. Serenity heard a swishing sound in the air, then an agonizing pain on her back. "Aaaaahhhh !!!" shouted serenity in pain. Miroku had whipped serenity across her back. "Again !" commanded Kagura. Again, Miroku whipped serenity across her back. Serenity's cry was heard all throughout the bath house. "We gotta do something !" said Shippo. "But what ?!" said hank. Again and again serenity was whipped across her back. Soon after, Koga was called in to do the same to serenity. Serenity's shirt was torn in the back from the whip hitting at her back.
"I can't watch this anymore !" thought hank. Just as Koga was about to lash serenity once more, he was high-kicked in the face by none other then hank himself. Koga flew into a wall head first, knocking Miroku out with him. Serenity slowly arose to her knees and was having a very hard time standing up. Then she was kicked in her side by Kagura and fell to the floor again. "Stay down you !!" shouted Kagura. "No, you GET down !!" shouted hank as he charged at Kagura with the look of kill in his eyes. Kagura smirked and held up her fan. "A fan ?" thought Shippo. "Dance of blades !!" shouted Kagura as she waved her magic fan in the air. Large wind blades appeared and they each hit hank. Hank was forced back onto a wall and had many cuts on him. "My turn !" shouted Shippo. He threw 7 leafs into the air and they all turned into exact copies of him. As Kagura attacked the decoys with her wind blade attacks, the now recovered Hank and Shippo left the room with serenity.
"Serenity ! Wake up !!" shouted Shippo. "Shes not breathing...maybe we attacked too late..." said hank softly. Then, a loud explosion was heard. After the dust cleared, Hank and Shippo saw Hiei, Kurama, Yusake, and Kuwabara. "Finally ! I thought you guys would never get here !!" shouted Shippo. "Fine then, next time we'll be much quicker !" yelled Yusake sarcastically. "At least the fox brat is ok, wheres Serenity ?" asked Kuwabara. Hiei was the first to see serenity lying on the floor beside hank. "What happened ?!!!!" yelled Hiei. "This really evil wench named Kagura had her minions do this to serenity" said hank. Hiei's eyes where fixed on serenity, she was a bloody mess. Her back was whipped so badly that a bit of her spinal cord was showing.
"Where is the person who did this to Serenity ?!!" shouted Kuwabara. "Dance of blades !!!" shouted Kagura's voice as large blades of wind flew towards them. "Look out !!" shouted hank as he jumped away with serenity in his arms. The blades whizzed by the others and straight at hank. "Aura shield !" said hank as a dark aura shield surrounded him. The wind blades failed to hit hank with the shield protecting him and serenity. "Who are you ?!" shouted Kurama. "I am Kagura" said Kagura as she walked over to serenity and grabbed her by her hair. Serenity let out a small cry. Then, Kagura felt a surge of power hit her arm, then sink into her skin. "My spirit gun didn't work !!" shouted Yusake. "Disappointed ? My body can absorb spirit energy" said Kagura. "Darn it..." thought serenity. Hiei's focus was on serenity, her blood continued to drip on the floor. Kagura grinned and threw serenity aside and held up her fan. "Now to end her pathetic life !!" shouted Kagura. Kagura waved her fan and sharp blades of wind formed and flew towards serenity.
(RIIIIIP !!!)
Everyone's eyes widened at the sight. Serenity's blood was coming out of her more than ever, and most of her clothes where cut off, only her undershirt and white underwear remained, and she was bleeding all over her body. Yet, she was still alive and had the shadows covering her body. "You wench !!!!" shouted Kuwabara as he charged at Kagura and punched her in the chest. Kagura winced and stepped back. Kurama flipped back his hair and produced a rose. "A rose ?" said Shippo. "If he's trying to win Kagura over, I don't think it'll work" said hank. "Rose Whip !" shouted Kurama as he lashed out the rose and it turned into a whip with many thorns on it. "Didn't expect that" thought hank.
"Rose Whiplash !!" shouted Kurama as he whipped at Kagura. Kagura's body was cut in half. "That seemed too easy" thought Hiei. Then, Kagura's body regenerated and formed back into its original form. "I can't be defeated !" shouted Kagura. "Then its up to me" said Hiei as he stepped forward. "Whats Hiei gonna do ?" thought serenity. Hiei held up his fist and it began to glow a dark aura. "Whats this ?! I feel a dark power raging inside this person !" thought Kagura. "you made a big mistake taking serenity away from us, you crossed the line when you made her your slave, but you made me lose it when you hurt her !!!!!" yelled Hiei as he raised his other hand to his forehead. "He's gonna take off his headband !!" said Serenity and Shippo to themselves.
Everyone backed away from Hiei as the dark aura began to expand each second. Hiei then removed his headband and both Shippo and serenity gasped. "What the heck ?! He's got another eye !!!" shouted Shippo. "But it's not real, I can tell" said Kagura. "True, it may not be originally mine, but it's all I need to take care of you !!!" shouted Hiei. The dark aura began to twist and flicker like a giant black flame. "Its time, everyone brace yourselves !" shouted Kurama. Everyone stood their ground. "Flaming Dark Dragon Wave !!!!" shouted Hiei as he held his hand out towards Kagura. A large dragon made from black flames shot from Hiei's hand and towards Kagura. Kagura shrieked just before the flames hit her.
A powerful explosion came after the impact, blowing everyone away. "Aaaaahhhh !!!!" shouted Shippo as he and the others fell to the ground below. "Well, that takes care of that, only one more problem" said Yusake. "And just what is that ?" asked Kurama. "Nothing really, except that" said Yusake as he pointed down. Everyone looked down and saw serenity falling down to the ground faster. "Serenity !!!" shouted Kuwabara. "Huh ?" said serenity as she opened her eyes. "Your falling faster then us !!" shouted Kuwabara. "What ?!" asked serenity. "He said, you're falling faster then all of us !!!!!!" yelled Yusake. "Ohh" said serenity. Serenity closed her eyes and then was caught in the air by her flying leaf. Serenity then flew under Shippo and caught him. "Bye !" said serenity as she giggled and flew off back to the city. "Hey !!! Your just gonna leave us here ?!!!!" shouted Hiei. Serenity and Shippo were already far away, too far to hear Hiei. "I knew we shouldn't have saved them !! You all could have listened to me, but NO !!!" shouted Kuwabara. "SHUT-UP !!" shouted everyone at Kuwabara, knowing he was half right.
(CRASH !!!!)
"Sounded like they all just hit the ground" said serenity. "Are you sure they wont be upset at you for doing that ?" asked Shippo. "Im sure they're just now forgetting it" said serenity.
"IM NEVER GONNA FORGET THIS !!!!" shouted Hiei as he climbed out of the large crater he and the others made from the impact with the ground. "Neither will I !" shouted Yusake. "At least we're all still alive !" said hank. "That little brat !! Not saving us after we saved her !!" yelled Kuwabara. Kurama looked up and saw something, then began to laugh. "Whats so funny ?!" shouted Yusake. "Serenity didn't leave us after all" said Kurama. A shadow covered Kuwabara and before he could look up, a large leaf crashed down on him. Serenity and Shippo where on the leaf.
Serenity now had her black dress on. "I just went home to put my clothes on" said serenity. "Get...off...me !!!!" shouted Kuwabara who was under the leaf. Serenity and Shippo got off and the leaf disappeared. "You could have at least kept us from hitting the ground !!" shouted Yusake. Serenity was about to speak, but the strong pain from her wounds came back and she fell to her knees. "Are you alright ?" asked Kurama. "My vision is becoming blurry" said serenity. "No wonder there, you know your kneeling in your own blood right ?" said hank. Serenity looked down and saw her blood dripping onto the ground. "I didn't notice...how bad it had gotten" thought serenity.
The leaf reappeared and grew much larger then before. "I have just enough strength to fly us home" said serenity. Hiei held serenity in his arms and set her on the leaf, then everyone else got on. "Are you coming too ?" asked Shippo to hank. "I may as well, seeing I was stuck in that place for years" said hank. Serenity nodded and the leaf began to fly back to the city. "One question, how'd you get into the house when I haven't given you a key yet ?" asked Hiei. "Uhhh...sorry" said serenity. "Hmm ? For what ?" asked Hiei. "I kinda had to break a window to get in" said serenity. Shippo and serenity tensed up, knowing what was coming. "YOU BROKE A WINDOW ?!!!" yelled Hiei. "I said sorry !" shouted serenity. "That's not gonna pay for it !!!" yell Hiei. "Fine !!! I'll fix it when im healed !!!" shouted serenity. "You better !" said Hiei. "Things are back to normal" thought Shippo.
