Part 13

'Why are you telling me all this? Aren't bad guys supposed to keep secrets for the good guys?'

She calmly said she started to walk to the door. I meant, we started walking toward the door. Nara Ska made another one of those black holes and we stepped through. We were back right were we had left. We looked around and closed the portal.

We started to go back to my room and found someone running toward us.

"Fox! Are you all right? I heard you screaming-" Botan stopped and froze. "Oh my god!" At first I had thought she figured out that I was possessed, but no way. "Where did you get that outfit? I did not put that in your wardrobe! I purposefully put kimonos in there!"

"I found them." I found myself saying through Nara Ska's control.

"Where?" Botan asked. I've never seen anyone wearing those clothes before."

"Does it really matter?" We said. Then I felt Nara Ska looking through my mind. I tried to block her, but she obviously found what she wanted. "I am going to be late for my training with Hiei."

Botan looked at us funny and I knew why. I was trying to get away from Hiei the other day and now I was trying to find him? No wonder she was confused, but Nara Ska obviously didn't pick that up. We started to walk away. We heard Botan murmur, "But I thought you didn't like Hiei." Nara Ska ignored her and we moved on.

'She suspects something.' I thought to Nara Ska. 'They WILL find out and get you out of my body!'

'There will be no need for that. I will leave soon enough. Did you think I'd want to be in here for my health?' She started to laugh in her mind.

'I hate you.' I said and she just ignored me. After wandering around, she didn't bother going into my personal part of my mind, we made it to where I was going to get trained. Hiei was standing there, talking to Kurama. We did not hear what they had to say, but Kurama walked away, leaving Hiei.

"I am amazed. You came here as of your own will, Fox." Hiei said. I wanted to shout, 'what makes you think I did want to?' Nara Ska smirked in my mind.

"I've realized the value of training. Let's do free style combat. I believe I've improved." Nara Ska said. Hiei made no comment but a frown. It seemed to him that there was something wrong with me.

"Yes." He said after a little bit.

'He is going to try to find out what is wrong with you, Fox. It wont matter, whether he find out or not, he'll be dead at the end of it all.' Nara Ska thought to me. 'NO! I'll go to jail for killing him!' I shouted in my mind. 'That's your problem isn't it?' She said. 'Now watch a real fight.' I growled at her as we took a sword Hiei gave us and got into a fighting stance.

"Begin." Hiei said. What happened next, I'll never recall, it was so fast. He shot foreword as a blur and slid his sword to my neck. "You are not wanted here. Nara Ska." Hiei said. I smiled in my mind and shouted to Nara Ska 'Hah! He's better than you thought and now you will die!'

'That is very wrong, Fox. You will die and I will return to myself. This is your body after all.' I gasped. 'NO!' 'But first I will have a bit of fun playing with Hiei before you both die. Hahahaa!'

Nara Ska/Me slid out from his sword. "You've figured it out, but will you hurt her to kill me?" She laughed, well, we laughed. "I've possessed her and wont let go until you are dead. What are you going to do?"

Hiei said nothing, but started to attack me. 'He's seriously going to kill me, just to kill Nara Ska. She is going to try to kill him and he's going to try to kill her, but really will kill me instead. This is not fun. Maybe if I try to fight her and get control…' I thought but was interrupted by Nara Ska. 'If you don't shut up, then you are the one who is going to die.' I snapped back , 'Then why do you sound so worried?'

Nara Ska didn't reply and focused on the attack. Soon I realized, 'She can't think and fight. Maybe now is the time to try to distract her or find a way out. I can tell she isn't paying attention to me at all. She did sound worried…' At that moment Hiei's sword cut my arm, but something weird happened. I couldn't feel any pain at all. Zip. Nada. 'Why don't I feel it? Unless… This isn't my body… she could have copied mine, but, then how come I have her in my head? Or…Am I in hers?'

Nara Ska vigorously attacked Hiei, but they seemed an equal match. "You haven't improved at all Hiei, you do realize that."

"Hn"

"I see you have also gotten less sociable." She managed to cut his right arm. "What? Feeling a little pain? I don't think that you will last." She laughed. I knew she could feel me thinking, but since she was so focused on the fights, it seemed like a small itch, I think.

"You think you are the best of the best. So confident. What makes you think this hurts?"

"Oh, it may not right now, but soon you will be feeling pain all over." She laughed. "You will die once I am done playing with you."

"What makes you think that I am going to die anytime soon?" Hiei said calmly and they started to circle each other.

'Well, if I'm in her body, then I must have gotten in here someway. If there is a way in, then there is a way out. If she can search my mind, then I can search hers. How?' I thought. Then something that must have been the answer popped into my mind. 'She didn't actually say that she was in my mind. She just told me that I was quick. So, I guess, since I believed that she possessed me, it seemed that she did. So if I don't believe it…'

"I am getting sick of this child's play, Nara Ska. Girls body or no, you will die now!" Hiei said and blurred foreword.

'I'm in my body and not in Nara Ska's copy of my body. I am not in her mind. She did not possess me.' I started to believe it and something strange happened. I saw Hiei coming and struck me and Nara Ska right when we separated. What he struck, wasn't me. It was Nara Ska. She had somehow merged with my body and I had unmerged it.

Hiei's sword plunged through Nara Ska's heart. "What?" She gasped at the pain. "How can this be happening? I don't understand." Then she looked at me. 'How.. Did you escape?"

"Don't ever underestimate me. You can die for all I care. You wanted us dead. Now feel the price." I said coldly to her. I picked up my sword and stabbed her chest. She gasped and a tear of blood rolled down he cheek. Then she smiled and laughed. "You're going down with me." She said. I looked a her confused. She conjured a long dagger and hit me in the chest.

"No!" I cried. I soon gasped and looked at the blood on me I saw Nara Ska fall down dead. I soon fell down after her.

No. I didn't die. How could I be telling this story if I had?

Authors note: sorry for not having posted in a while. I know that this really isn't funny, but I needed to get rid of Nara Ska. Or have I?
