Chapter Twelve: The Suichuu Tournament
"She's with Urameshi, lets just finish her off now before anyone wakes." With that the demon raises his clawed hand and trusts it at her. Before the demon was even close to her body his hand was caught in mid air. "Who dares-" the demon begins but when turns to see who it is he begins to shake. "H-" before the demon could finish it got a sword through his gut.
"Hn." as the body fell Hiei stood before it. Hiei turned to the other demon and glared one of his worst ones. "Touch her and die." he growled. The demon only nodded and ran off back to it's cabin. He looked at Sutana and stared for a moment. "Hn." he said and walked back to their cabin.
After he had left and the sound of the door closed echoed inside the dome Sutana opened her left eye and grinned. 'I could've blocked that. But what fun would it have been? Now I know Hiei does care. Just better keep that to myself'
'You better.' she heard in her head and her eyes widened.
'What the heck?' she thought. 'Sounded like Hiei'
'Hn. I'm a telepath, baka onna.' he said back to her.
'Oh...wait a second! You were reading my mind!' she stood up as if he were right infront of her. With that she felt him leave her mind. She sighed and turned back to the bowspirt. Moments later she felt someone behind her. She acted as if she hadn't noticed and when the person was just close enough she flipped around and reached for the persons neck.
She held a girl with long silky dark purple hair and emerald eyes with by the throat, but it was only an after-image.
"Baka, what I ever do to you?" she said.
"How about the fact you snuck up on me?!" the girl was silent for a moment then spoke again.
"So you're with Urameshi, are you?" she asked leaning against the edge of the boat and rested some on the glass dome.
"...Yes."
"My name's Anana," she stuck her hand. "I'm from Team Darkina." Sutana was uncertain for a moment but shook her hand.
"I'm Sutana." Anana nodded.
"I know. Trust me, you've been the biggest gossip on the ship. So, I decided to come see you."
"Me? Er...why?"
"Why? Because I plan on fighting you in the tournament."
"What makes you so certain your team will ever fight mine?" Anana glared, it sent chills up Sutana's spine, her eyes went from a soft innocent look to a fearful death-like glint.
"We are stronger than we look. As are you. I cann see it in your eyes. I will see you in the tournament..." she said walking back to her cabin.
"Is that a threat?" Sutana said.
"No. It is mearly a promise between the two of us." Much to Sutana's surprise her cabin was located right next to her's.
"Strange..."
"I think you just made a knew friend." she whipped around to see Kurama smiling at her and Yusuke, Kuwabara and Asaki beside him.
"Are you kidding me? She just challenged me."
"She's curious. Maybe you'll be lucky and get to fight her." Asaki commented "Lucky? Eh, you do realize she had a tremendous amount of energy she has hidden, not very well I mite add."
"So what? I've been in those kind of situations all the time." Yusuke said. "But that's not why we're here." Asaki said.
"We came to get you for breakfast." Kurama finished for him.
"Good. I'm starving!" she said and followed them to the other side of the boat.
Cafeteria
Sutana sweatdropped as they sat down. "Jeez, you'd think they'd have better food considering the rooms." she said while scooping some of the mush on her spoon then letting it fall back in the bowel. She looked up to see Yusuke and Kuwabara actually eating it. She sneered in disgust. "Ugh! You're actually eating it?" they don't look up but nod. She shook her head. Asaki seemed to be examining it, holding the spoon of mush before him and looking at it from all perspections. Kurama had taken a small spoonful of it and his face went pale with disgust. He puled the spoon from his mouth and forced himself to swallow, Sutana was secretly laughing to her self quietly at his reaction. Now Hiei, he glared at it then sneered. He pushed the bowel away from himself and stands up. "I wasn't hungry anyways." he mumbled and walked out. Kuwabara and Yusuke reached for Hiei's bowel at the same time and electricity passeed from their eyes. They were about to fight over it when Kurama along with Asaki handed them their boweld, which they gladly excepted. "But it's uneven!" Kuwabara complained as Yusuke took a third bowel.
"Wow Kuwabara. I didn't think you knew that much." Yusuke said sarcastically.
"Here Kuwa-chan." Sutana said handing him her bowel and leaving.
"Er...thanks." he said.
Sutana waved with the back of her hand as she left for the room. When she entered, as exspected, Hiei and Asaki were in there as well. She went over to her bed and pulled her bag out from under the bed and opened it. She smiled seeing what she wanted. She took out a box of pochy. She looked at both Hiei and Asaki and sighed. "Hey, Asaki. Catch." she tossed him a box, in which he caught. He smiled.
"Thanks squirt." she glared at him for the comment but smiled and rolled her eyes.
"Hey, Hiei-"
"Like I said before, I'm not hungry." she grunted at his response and got off her bed, she walked over to him and held ou the box of pochy.
"Hiei, take it. I know you're hungry."
"Hn, I said I don't want it, baka onna." Asaki side glared at Hiei but popped another pochu stick into his mouth.
"Grrr, baka oni, I said you can have it." she prompted by moving it infront of his face. He whacked at it but she raised her arm. He was a bit shocked he missed and glared at her. "Hiei, take the stupid pochy." she growled.
"Hn, no." she sighed and opened the box of pochy and took out a stick. Hiei glanced at her but just grunted his 'hn'. Without warning she out the pochy stick in his mouth. Hiei looked utterly surprised but regained his compsure and spat it out then glared at her.
"I said I don't wa-" she put another in his mouth. This time he spat it out then pinned her to the wall quickly and growled. "I said I didn't want any."
"And I say I don't care. You need to eat, as do I. So just eat the pochy so I can eat mine."
"Hn." he took the box from her and she rubbed her shoulders when he released her.
"Thank you Hi-" she double blinked as Hiei had shoved a pochy stick in her mouth then tossed the box on her bed.
"I'm not hungry." he said then trudged out of the room. She looked at the door he just exited from. She took a bit of the pochy then took it out of her mouth.
'Jeez, what's got him so uptight?' she walked back over to her bed and noticed Asaki smiling at her. She quieked an eyebrow. "What?"
"Awww, that was so adoriable." he joked then laughed.
"Shut up, onee-chan." she rolled her eyes and got another box out along with the box Hiei tossed. 'I'm sure Kurama would appreciate a box.' she thought and left the room and knocked on the room belonging to the other three. Kurama answered with a smile.
"Hello, Sutana. What do you need?"
"Actually I just wanted to see if you'd like some pochy, considering you didn't eat breakfast; and I don't blame you." "Sure, I'd love some. Why don't you come in?"
"Why, not. Not like I have anything elde to do." she walked into the room and Kurama closed the door. The room was pretty mush the same. The only difference was that their bed sheets were a dark blue. She followed him to the right corner bed and sat down with him.
"So, how have you been for this past month?"
"Pretty well actually. I've gotten alot stronger and learned some new tricks." Kurama noddded.
"Did you see Hiei at all?"
"Hiei? Why would have seen him?"
"No reason. I was just wondering." he said while eating his pochy.
'He's hiding something.' "So Kurama, care to play a game of Rummy?"
"Sure. I'm guessing you have cards?" she nodded and pulled a deck of cards out of her pockets. "Okay, the rules are exactly the same except for that the loser has to tell something they know. Something the other person doesn't."
"Sounds easy enough." Sutana smiled and dealed the cards.
12 Games Later
Sutana grunted, she had lost seven out of twelve games. 'And I'm usually so good at this game.' she layed down her cards, as did Kurama.
"I win." he said. Sutana sighed and tried to think of something.
"Okay when-"
"Lets make this more interesting," Kurama said.
"Okay, shoot."
"Lets change it to where the loser has to answer a question the winner asks."
"...Okay..."
"Alright." 'I don't want to be blunt. I'll ask that the next time I win.' Kurama thought. "Would you consider joining our team?" she gave him a puzzled look.
"I am on your team."
"Heh, sorry. What I meant was would you consider becoming a Spirit Detective?"
"...I...never really thought about it. I doubt Koenma would let me." she said rubbing the back of her neck. "But...I had the chance to...hai; I would." Kurama smiled.
"That's good to know." you gave him another puzzled look. "Lets continue shall we?" she snapped back to reality and nodded.
One Game Later
Sutana grinned. "I win." Kurama looked at the cards then her.
"It seems that you have. What would like to ask me?"
"..." she thought for a moment. "It's a bit off subject but...do you know how...Hiei feels about me?" Kurama was shocked.
"Well...um...not exactly..."
"How can you 'not exactly' know?"
"Um..." for once in, Kurama was stumped. He couldn't tell her; but it was a deal, he lost. Kurama sighed. "Yes, I do."
"Okay. Play again?" she said shuffling the deck. Kurama stared baffled at her.
"You're not going to ask me how he feels about you, are you?"
"Nope, I'm sure not. I want Hiei to tell me, whenever he's ready. And I plan to do the same." she said while dealing the cards. Kurama smiled.
"That's a good plan." he said taking up his cards, she only nodded.
Hours Later
Sutana was leaning on the railing, staring out into the under-water beauty. She sighed, listening to the noises the rambuncious demons made in case any decided to attack again. She yawned and her mouth was half open when she froze, seeing something up ahead. 'Is that-' she ran off to the teams cabins. She swung open the door to the cabin Hiei, Asaki, and she use. She smiled at Asaki. "We're arriving at the Tournament, Asaki. Get your stuff together. We'll be leaving soon." she said then headed to the other boys' room. Only Kuwabara and Yusuke were in there. "Hey, we're arriving at the Island soon. Pack up guys." "About time. I'm sick of this place, not to mention Kuwabara's a bit seasick." Yusuke pointed at Kuwabara who was under his covers.
"...Oh..." she turned back to Yusuke. "So, were are Kurama and Hiei?"
"Probably on the other side of the boat."
"Thanks." she said and rushed out.
With Hiei And Kurama
"Hiei, when will admit it?"
"Admit what?" Hiei sits on one of the chairs while Kurama stands at his side, determined to get an answer from him.
"Hiei, you know what I'm talking about."
"Hn." Kurama sighed.
"Fine then, Hiei; have it your way. But if you continue this you'll never sucede."
"Baka kitsune, what's your point?"
"My point is-"
"Hiei, Kurama." they looked behind themselves to see Sutana coming up to them.
"We're almost there. Then we can get some real food." Kurama and Hiei sweatdropped. "Yes, of course. I'll get going then. I need to pack a few things." Kurama said, leaving. "Oh, okay." Sutana said then turned to Hiei. "So, Hiei. Ready to kick some demon butt? They'll pay for what they did; they can never be forgiven." she furrowed her eyebrows, remember ing what he did to her. Hiei looked at her for a moment.
"What really happened when you were there." he asked, she looked at him.
"What are you talking about? I told you guys everything."
"You're lieing." Hiei growled. She took a step back in shock at his words.
"Hiei, what reason would I have to lie?"
"Embaressment."
"Uh...Don't be ridiculous."
"If I'm wrong, then open that one spot of your mind you're so despritely trying to hide." her eyes widened.
"...Sorry, but that's not going to happen."
"Because you're hiding something."
"Yes, Hiei. I am. But it doesn't mean that I'll tell you." she turned and walked away. A hand landed on her shoulder and turned her around.
"I'll find out. You can't keep something secret from me for much longer." her eye flared. She raised her hand and was about to make contact with his cheek when an alarm was heard and screams filled the air along with the familar aroma of bloodshed.
Hiei and Sutana rushed to the other side of the deck to see a all out war of demons. Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, and Asaki were battling the demons along with some of the other teams. Sutana and Hiei joined in the fight.
Sutana was just pumling the demons and she came back-to-back with Kurama. "Kurama, what happened?!" she asked blocking another asualt.
"We don't really know. They just came out of nowhere." he said slicing a demon in half with his rose whip.
As Sutana knocked down another demon she saw a crack in the deck. 'Could it be...' she left the safety of Kurama and ran to the where she saw the crack. She heard Kurama call her name but she ignored it. She felt for the crack, 'Found it.' she slid her fingers under the crack and lifted the plank up.
Hiei had just sliced through more of the demons and caught a glimce of Sutana leaping down into a hole. 'Baka onna. What does she think she's doing?' Hiei cut his way through the deck.
Sutana jumped down the hole and landed in the dimly lit encasement. She stood up and looked around. 'I'm guessing this is where they came out from.' she heard the sounds of laughter and followed the voices.
She discovered their location and watched the three demons just enjoy themselves,
"What'd I tell ya' guys? Was this a great plan or what?" the demon laughed. He was a tall grungy looking demon with messy brown hair that went to his shoulders and sharp menacing blue eyes. The other two agreed with him. The other two demons were apparently twins. They had short spiky blonde hair, average hieght, and cruel pitch black eyes.
The one that seemed to be the leader (blue eyes one) rose an eyebrow. "What's wrong Tensai?" one of the twins asked. "Nothing. I just thought I felt someone else was in here." the other smirked.
"Oh, alright then." one twin said while standing. "Then I believe we have some work to do."
'Do they know I'm here-' Sutana's thought was interupted when she waws suddenly grabbed by both arms and slammed against one of the walls of the ship. She opened her eyes, they still had her by the arms.
"Well whatta know. It's Sutana from Team Urameshi." Tensai walked up to her, unsheathing his sword. "Guess I'll be getting the joy of killing you. To bad you caouldn't make it to the tournament, such a shame. And we're almost there too." he grinned showing his rotten teeth. He raised the blade as to trust it into her heart.
Without hesitation, her aura surrounded her entire body. Sparks of energy shot down from her neck, through her arms, and struck the demons holding her, turning them into ice. Tensai growled and charged at her. She broke the frozen hands of the demons of her wrists, causing them to fall to the ground and shatter. She kicked Tesai's hand sending the sword into the air and falling into her posseson, and in a swift fast movement she she was face to face with the demon and struck him in the heart. "You' should've thought twice before messing with me." she said and pulled the sword from him and he collasped to the ground in a pool of blood.
"Hn. Not bad." Hiei came out from the shadows. "I thought I mite've had to save you."
"Is that so, Jaganshi? I never knew you cared." she teased and walked up to the glaring fire demon. She rolled her eyes, he tossed a rag to her. She raised an eyebrow.
"You have blood on your face." he said then disapeered.
'That's Hiei for ya.' she said and wiped her face, heading back onto the deck. The deck was practically covered with corpses. She spotted her team mates and walked up to them. "Where were you? We could've used your help." Yusuke said.
"Oh chill, Yusuke. There was some other business below deck so I took care of it." then the intercom spoke.
"All teams report to the deck. We will be docking in five minutes."
"Guess we should get our stuff." Yusuke said and walked off, Kurama and Kuwabara tailgating him. Sutana sighed and went off to get her stuff as well.
Suichuu Island
Yusuke whistled. "Talk about your underwater Island." he said looking around the area. ( i hate desciptions) Unlike Hanging Neck Island, Suichuu Island was more of a city like in the human world.
"I didn't know demons had citys." Kuwabara said baffled.
"Not a surprise there. With your brain span I'm surprised you even remember your name." Hiei comented.
"Grrr. Shorty I swear if you say one more word I'll make you regret the day you ever met me!"
"Hn, fool. I already do."
"What's that?! You have somethin to say then say it!"
"Wow! Kuwabara, calm down!" Yusuke said holding him back. Asaki and Sutana sweatdropped.
"I'm just hoping I can get use to this." Asaki said.
"I juat want to get some food." Sutana said and Asaki gave her a weird look. "Kurama, where's the hotel?"
"Hm? Oh, we''ve been outside the entrance since Kuwabara and Hiei started arguing. Everyone did an animefallover.
"I'm not wasting any more time on that stupid baffoon." Hiei said shoving past Kuwabara and heading into the hotel.
"Why I outta..." Kuwabara shook his fist.
"Quit it out, Kuwa-chan." Sutana rolled her eyes. "Lets stop the fighting and get some food."
"Is that all you can think about right now?" Yusuke said. Sutana shrugged.
"I'm not really thinking about it. I just know I am." they all sweatdropped, then headed inside.
Not much of a cliffy, I know. But I have nowhere to put a cliffy. (sigh) Yay, well, g2g. I have a Hiei quiz to update, ugh. Od, and sorry but I don't feal like putting a thingy about the next chappie on this one. I'm tired, have schools tomorrow, and I'm hungry. I've only eaten four meals in the past three days T.T I was going through a depression thing. g2g, Sayonara bye bye!
Chapter Twelve: The Suichuu Tournament
"She's with Urameshi, lets just finish her off now before anyone wakes." With that the demon raises his clawed hand and trusts it at her. Before the demon was even close to her body his hand was caught in mid air. "Who dares-" the demon begins but when turns to see who it is he begins to shake.

"Hn, I said I don't want it, baka onna." Asaki side glared at Hiei but popped another pochu stick into his mouth.

"Hiei, Kurama." they looked behind themselves to see Sutana coming up to them.
"We're almost there. Then we can get some real food." Kurama and Hiei sweatdropped. "Yes, of course. I'll get going then. I need to pack a few things." Kurama said, leaving. "Oh, okay." Sutana said then turned to Hiei. "So, Hiei. Ready to kick some demon butt? They'll pay for what they did; they can never be forgiven." she furrowed her eyebrows, remember ing what he did to her. Hiei looked at her for a moment.
"What really happened when you were there." he asked, she looked at him.
"What are you talking about? I told you guys everything."
"You're lieing." Hiei growled. She took a step back in shock at his words.
"Hiei, what reason would I have to lie?"
"Embaressment."
"Uh...Don't be ridiculous."
"If I'm wrong, then open that one spot of your mind you're so despritely trying to hide." her eyes widened.
"...Sorry, but that's not going to happen."
"Because you're hiding something."
"Yes, Hiei. I am. But it doesn't mean that I'll tell you." she turned and walked away. A hand landed on her shoulder and turned her around.
"I'll find out. You can't keep something secret from me for much longer." her eye flared. She raised her hand and was about to make contact with his cheek when an alarm was heard and screams filled the air along with the familar aroma of bloodshed.
Hiei and Sutana rushed to the other side of the deck to see a all out war of demons. Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, and Asaki were battling the demons along with some of the other teams. Sutana and Hiei joined in the fight.
Sutana was just pumling the demons and she came back-to-back with Kurama. "Kurama, what happened?!" she asked blocking another asualt.
"We don't really know. They just came out of nowhere." he said slicing a demon in half with his rose whip.
As Sutana knocked down another demon she saw a crack in the deck. 'Could it be...' she left the safety of Kurama and ran to the where she saw the crack. She heard Kurama call her name but she ignored it. She felt for the crack, 'Found it.' she slid her fingers under the crack and lifted the plank up.
Hiei had just sliced through more of the demons and caught a glimce of Sutana leaping down into a hole. 'Baka onna. What does she think she's doing?' Hiei cut his way through the deck.
Sutana jumped down the hole and landed in the dimly lit encasement. She stood up and looked around. 'I'm guessing this is where they came out from.' she heard the sounds of laughter and followed the voices.
She discovered their location and watched the three demons just enjoy themselves,
"What'd I tell ya' guys? Was this a great plan or what?" the demon laughed. He was a tall grungy looking demon with messy brown hair that went to his shoulders and sharp menacing blue eyes. The other two agreed with him. The other two demons were apparently twins. They had short spiky blonde hair, average hieght, and cruel pitch black eyes.
The one that seemed to be the leader (blue eyes one) rose an eyebrow. "What's wrong Tensai?" one of the twins asked. "Nothing. I just thought I felt someone else was in here." the other smirked.
"Oh, alright then." one twin said while standing. "Then I believe we have some work to do."
'Do they know I'm here-' Sutana's thought was interupted when she waws suddenly grabbed by both arms and slammed against one of the walls of the ship. She opened her eyes, they still had her by the arms.
"Well whatta know. It's Sutana from Team Urameshi." Tensai walked up to her, unsheathing his sword. "Guess I'll be getting the joy of killing you. To bad you caouldn't make it to the tournament, such a shame. And we're almost there too." he grinned showing his rotten teeth. He raised the blade as to trust it into her heart.
Without hesitation, her aura surrounded her entire body. Sparks of energy shot down from her neck, through her arms, and struck the demons holding her, turning them into ice. Tensai growled and charged at her. She broke the frozen hands of the demons of her wrists, causing them to fall to the ground and shatter. She kicked Tesai's hand sending the sword into the air and falling into her posseson, and in a swift fast movement she she was face to face with the demon and struck him in the heart. "You' should've thought twice before messing with me." she said and pulled the sword from him and he collasped to the ground in a pool of blood.
"Hn. Not bad." Hiei came out from the shadows. "I thought I mite've had to save you."
"Is that so, Jaganshi? I never knew you cared." she teased and walked up to the glaring fire demon. She rolled her eyes, he tossed a rag to her. She raised an eyebrow.
"You have blood on your face." he said then disapeered.
'That's Hiei for ya.' she said and wiped her face, heading back onto the deck. The deck was practically covered with corpses. She spotted her team mates and walked up to them. "Where were you? We could've used your help." Yusuke said.
"Oh chill, Yusuke. There was some other business below deck so I took care of it." then the intercom spoke.
"All teams report to the deck. We will be docking in five minutes."
"Guess we should get our stuff." Yusuke said and walked off, Kurama and Kuwabara tailgating him. Sutana sighed and went off to get her stuff as well.
Suichuu Island
Yusuke whistled. "Talk about your underwater Island." he said looking around the area. ( i hate desciptions) Unlike Hanging Neck Island, Suichuu Island was more of a city like in the human world.
"I didn't know demons had citys." Kuwabara said baffled.
"Not a surprise there. With your brain span I'm surprised you even remember your name." Hiei comented.
"Grrr. Shorty I swear if you say one more word I'll make you regret the day you ever met me!"
"Hn, fool. I already do."
"What's that?! You have somethin to say then say it!"
"Wow! Kuwabara, calm down!" Yusuke said holding him back. Asaki and Sutana sweatdropped.
"I'm just hoping I can get use to this." Asaki said.
"I juat want to get some food." Sutana said and Asaki gave her a weird look. "Kurama, where's the hotel?"
"Hm? Oh, we''ve been outside the entrance since Kuwabara and Hiei started arguing. Everyone did an animefallover.
"I'm not wasting any more time on that stupid baffoon." Hiei said shoving past Kuwabara and heading into the hotel.
"Why I outta..." Kuwabara shook his fist.
"Quit it out, Kuwa-chan." Sutana rolled her eyes. "Lets stop the fighting and get some food."
"Is that all you can think about right now?" Yusuke said. Sutana shrugged.
"I'm not really thinking about it. I just know I am." they all sweatdropped, then headed inside.
