Disclaimer: I don't speak, write, or read Japanese, there fore I couldn't possible have written a Japanese animation…. I do however own the kids of the characters… Kuroko Samegato belongs to Meggy (I'll get her FF.net name next time I get on.) and Kotaro Morimoto belongs to my mother…. I have an awesome mom… she LOVES anime too

Let me know what you want to see more of… there will be more humor and drama… and Fluff soon… I have to find places to put it all and still stick to the story line R&R!

Ch4: meeting the ally and the fighting starts.


"I'm Koto and I'll be your cute host for this tournament. First, we'll go over the rules. All teams MUST have 5 members with one alternate. The alternate may be used at anytime, but once a round has started, the teams cannot be changed for any reason. The fights will all be one on one. The prizes are 28 million yen ($240,000) to be split between the remaining team members. The winners will also be granted one wish each. Any one caught cheating will be automatically disqualified. The first fights will begin in 2 days!"

"Let's go. It's almost time for us to meet that lady." Nami said standing to leave.

"Dad, we'll meet you at the hotel." Yasuo said, following Nami.

"Right Right." Chuu replied.

The 2 teens walked to the hotel. They were to meet in the lobby and go from there. When they reached the lobby, they saw a woman. She had white hair in a braid that reached her knees. She was wearing a black Gi with a purple top. They walked up to her. She heard them coming and turned around to see them.

"You must be Yasuo and Nami. Not many others would be bold enough to walk up to ma as casually as you just did." She said with a slight smile.

"Yes we are. First things first, what's your name?" Yasuo went first.

"I'm Kuroko Samegato, A kitsune/wolf demon."

"Pleased to meet you, Kuroko." Nami greeted.

'I smell fire in this one.' Kuroko thought. 'I'll have to look past it. This is too important to let hatred get in the way.'

"Let's go somewhere more private."

They nodded and followed Kuroko to her hotel room. Her team was out for the morning, so they went in and sat down.

"First off let me say that you are only protecting the artifact. I have no need for protection. The man you are looking for is Kotaro Morimoto. He's an elemental demon that controls earth. He is powerful but seeks more power." Kuroko informed them. "He also has a team in the tournament."

"Where is your piece of the artifact right now?" Yasuo asked.

"I'm wearing it." She said pointing to her necklace. It was a small cross.

"It's so pretty." Nami said.

"Yet so deadly. He will not get this piece as long as I'm wearing it, but I can only wear it for so long before I start to get affected by it's evil energy. I will tell you when I take it off. Hopefully it won't be anytime soon."

"Keep us posted. My sister and I are in the room next door with our father."

Just then, the rest of Kuroko's team came in. There was 1 girl and 4 guys. Their names were, Suki, Maromaru, Roko, Hoji, and Kohaku.

"We must be leaving. It was nice to meet you all." Nami said walking out the door.


The next day, everyone was preparing for the fights that would begin the next day. There were only 8 teams. 8 teams made up of some of the best fighters on earth. Chuu and the rest of the team were dragged along on a shopping spree by the three teenage girls. Team Urameshi spent the day on the beach with their parents. What a sight that was. That night they all got together to play cards.

"This reminds me of when WE were in the tournament." Kurama said

"Don't remind me." Hiei said, remembering how they picked on him about his sister.


"Welcome everyone! The tournament is about to begin. First, we have team MAHO! And on the other side, TEAM URAMESHI! Don't be confused people; these are the kids of the famed team Urameshi of the dark tournament. This will definitely be exciting!"

The crowd roared and booed.

"Will the first fighters please step into the ring?"

Rei stepped up to meet a short man.

"Rei vs. Kenji! Let the first match, BEGIN!"

Kenji immediately took out a katana. He lunged at Rei and she easily dodged.

"Oh please, my boyfriend can do better than that." She said using her rose whip to steal the man's katana.

The man revealed steel claws and disappeared behind Rei. Before she could turn around the man dug the claws into her back. She screamed and the man disappeared again.

The man hadn't really disappeared. He was using god-like speed so he wasn't visible to the untrained eye. Rei knew this. She closed her eyes and turned Youko. Once she was in her Youko form, her hair started to grow and turned green. Rei opened her eyes and her hair was now down to her waist. Suddenly, her hair went straight on all sides and grew, piercing her opponent like spears. Once she had stopped Kenji, she wrapped him up with her hair. She tightened the vines around him until the razor sharp edges cut him into 7 pieces.

"I don't believe what I just saw! Rei's hair turned into vines and sliced Kenji into pieces! AMAZING!"

Rei turned normal and was declared winner.

"GO REI!" yelled Leiko, who was sitting in the stands with her parents since she was the alternate for this match.

"Let's hurry up and finish the rest of these guys off so I can go wash my hair." Rei told her team.

They laughed.

A/N: ok there was the first fight….. They will get better… I promise… I already have 3 more chapters written…. But I have to find time to type them…. Anyways… R&R! Let me know what you want to happen and I will try and work it in….
