Chapter 11
Kurama, rather Youko Kurama, skidded to a sudden halt, breathing easily as if he hadn't just charged an enemy and attacked them with his rose whips at all get out. Across from him, his opponent, Sarasu, skidded to a halt also, he was panting; the attacks of this fight taking more of a toll on him than on Kurama - as Suuichi or Youko.
Youko brought his arms up in front of his face, crossing them to form an 'X' shape. The two rose whips hung from his arms and Youko;s amber eyes pierced the air as he glared through the opening of his rose whip 'X'.
Sarasu's arms hung rather limply at his side, his sword grasped in his right hand..for a moment. He dropped his sword and brought his hands up in front of his chest. His hands made a shape of a ball, the fingertips not quite touching. In the center of his hands, a ball of red-purple energy formed, slowly encasing his hands as the ball got slightly bigger every second.
~*Hiei's Point of View*~
After Hiei had saved Maria, he shot off again, not wanting to hear a bit of thanks from the human girl. He went to a corner of the room so that he could watch the fight without the chattering of the two human spirit detectives constantly filling his ears. When Suuichi transformed into Youko... he wasn't surprised in the least. He had known that something like that was going to happen. He grunted in approval when Youko brought the two rose whips up in front of his face.
'Youko easily has the upper hand. He has more stanima and energy right now than even Yusuke has. He is an expert fighter and will easily win this match,' Hiei thought to himself as he gazed upon the two opponents.
'I hope this ends soon...Sarasu is just an idiot.' he added to his thoughts.
~*End Hiei's Point of View*~
***
"So... is this all you have Sarasu? I was hoping my time spent outside of Suuichi would be fun...it turns out this is quite boring," Youko said, his face expressionless as he spoke.
Sarasu glared back at Youko from behind his energy ball. 'How dare he mock me! I will not be made fun of! I will win for my brother!!!' Sarasu thought with dismay. 'I can't lose..'
"Prepare to die Youko...'' Sarasu spat out madly. With a grin, he let the ball of energy fly towards Youko.
***
"KURAMA!!!" Maria shouted as her kidnapper let the energy fly towards her loved one. 'It can't hit him...it can't!' she thought quickly. She threw her hands over her eyes and opened a finger a crack to that her right eye could peer out and watch what happened. She had this feeling though...that he would be alright....
***
"I will not die Maria," Youko said, not loudly, though he knew she felt something from his words. The ball of energy was only a few meters away.
'Careful.......now!!!' Youko thought!!
He threw his arms apart, whipping both rose whips at the same time in front of him. It hit the ball of energy, which now was a few feet in front of the fox spirit. The ball of energy strained slightly, not wanting to move, but the force of the rose whips was too strong. It sent the blast of energy back to the direction of it's sender...Sarasu.
***
"NO!!!" Sarasu shouted as the blast collided with his body. He fly backwords into the rock wall...his vision a blurr, his body a shock of pain. 'This can't be!! How could he do that!' He thought. He wasn't expecting Youko to repell the shot...not at all.
He crashed into the rock wall with a loud thud and rocks sprayed everywhere.
***
"YEAH! Go KURAMA!" Yusuke shouted as he 'woo-hooed' for the Spirit Fox. Kuwabara danced madly beside him, doing a little victory dance that he had concocted after one of his fights.
Hiei smiled in satisfaction and grunted a usual 'hn.'
***
Youko walked slowly to where Sarasu's body lay through the wall. He stood next to him...the brother of his once opponent Karasu. Looking down, Youko noticed that Sarasu's fingers twitched...and then his eyes opened.
"You are defeated Sarasu...you cannot beat me...and you will die." Youko said to the demon who looked up as him.
"Kurama, you are stronger...than I...had...anticipated. I thought...you would be...easy...to kill....." Sarasu replied with difficulty. He was slowly dying, the last of his energy fading away.
"Good Bye cruel world....I hate you Kurama." were Sarasu's final words. Nothing else escaped the demons lips before he died.
***
Youko turned around and transformed his rose whips back into roses and they fell from his hands to the floor below. He ignored Yusuke and Kuwabara as they ran up next to him and he headed straight to Maria who was still standing next to the dead Sleeker. He slowly walked towards her and she smiled up to him. When he was 2 feet in front of her her stopped.
"Maria...now you know my true self..." Youko began.
"Yes...and thank you..." Maria finished.
Slowly...he brought his hands up and wrapped them around Maria in a tight hug. Slowly...he transformed back into Suuichi.
"Maria...I am so glad that you are safe," Kurama told her as she hugged him back.
"Thank you so much...I..." Maria said and choked back a sob.
"Lets....just go home for now. I bet our parents are worried about us," Kurama suggested and she nodded her head up to him with a half-smile.
