Disclaimer: Okay... gotta make this a quickie 'cause I wanna get this chapter over and done with 'cause I really wanna get to the good stuff! A good source of vitamin C! Oh Yeah! I do not own Hiei, Kurama, Yusuke, Kuwabara or any of the other YYH cast. However, I do own Hinoki, Damien, and all the others that go with Hinoki, including the Light Tournament.
The next morning, Hinoki was dressed in a black dress skirt that flared outward somewhat and a sleeveless t-shirt that was tight on her, zipped up in the front, revealed her entire washboard stomach, and had cute chibi bat wings on the back. Hinoki had put her hair up in the spiky ponytail once again.
She also had taken off her black bladed katana and put on some black cloth cuffs that wrapped sround her wrists. She had black leather boots that ran up to her knees.
When everyone saw this they were surprised Hinoki had something like this to wear.
"Wow, Hinoki! You look like a super star!" Kuwabara swooned.
"You think so? I don't know... I think the wings are a little much." Hinoki said, striking a pose.
"The wardrobe is fine, we must get back to the arena so you can perform for that opening ceremony." Hiei said coolly.
"Yes, Hiei-Sensei." Hinoki muttered.
Yusuke leaned in to Kurama, "Is it just me, or have those two gotten a little close?"
Kurama whispered back, "So you noticed it as well? I'm not sure what's going on... " Kurama replied.
Back at the opening Ceremony, Hinoki prepared to sing her first song. Jury handed her the microphone once again, "Let's hope this time it doesn't rain." she shouted running away.
Hinoki turned on the microphone and recoiled when she heard it revolt with an brief earshattering screech.
Everyone in the crowd cringed, but recovered quickly.
Hinoki was embarrassed.
This was a song she heard Hiei sing once.
Nonetheless, she put the microphone to her mouth and allowed the words to flow from it.
"I can hear a whistling farther than yesterday.
I collect the scattered pieces.
I hold them tightly in my right hand, and softly close my eyes."
Kurama was surprised by this choice of song. He never would have thought he'd hear Hinoki sing one of Hiei's songs.
Kurama turned his head to look at Hiei. His eyes were wide and transfixed on Hinoki. He was obviously as surprised as Kurama.
"Knife-like moonlight rains down on a night that freezes even the horizon.
Alone in that wilderness, hugging my knee,
I strain to hear the song of the wind."
Botan turned to Hiei and Kurama and saw their expressions, "Have you two heard this song before?" She asked.
Hiei's head jerked upright and turned to Botan. What was he going to tell her? That he had sung this song once at night when he had presumed Hinoki was asleep?
Instead of answering he only shook his head and listened to his song being sung by another voice. A voice that was surprisingly soothing and put him at ease.
"Those who do not know a sleepless night cannot become strong; that is the rule.
I can hear a whistling farther than the stars and the skies.
It's the words of someone's prayer. I hold them tightly in my right hand, and softly close my eyes."
Yusuke was surprised by the lyrics. He wondered if maybe Hinoki was a songwriter too. He would have to remember to ask her when this was over.
"A thing that's even sadder than lonliness is not realizing that lonliness no matter how freezing the night, under the earth warmth is hidden. Rather than being a bird that is trapped in a cage, I would become a nameless stone."
Kuwabara started to cry as he listened to the lyrics. "I-It's so beautiful..." He sobbed.
Yusuke smiled nervously('), "Get over it."
"I can hear a whistling farther than yesterday. I collect the scattered pieces and hold them tightly in my right hand; I softly close my eyes."
Hiei looked around and saw a few other demons crying at the song. He smirked, trying to hold in his laughter. He was still surprised that Hinoki would choose his song out of the thousands of others.
"I can hear a whistling from a distant yesterday. It's the words of someone's prayer. And holding them tight in my right hand, I softly close my eyes. Holding them tight in my right hand, I softly close my eyes." Hinoki finished.
By now most of the demons were crying in their seats.
"Th-that s-song probably b-brought m-mo-mos-st demons to tears jus-ss-st listening to it. b-but we will eagerly await the next one, won't we fans?" Koto sobbed.
"The next song I intend to sing is a song I choose to sing to someone in the stands. He is the one who requested this tournament be brought up early. He took everything from me, so I intend to give song to him as a warning." Hinoki said, glaring up at the glass box at the top of the stands.
Every demon turned and looked at the box she was referring to. Inside they saw Shoken smiling sweetly down at Hinoki, who only glared daggers back.
Disappear
outta here
It was time to pay my dues
Never guessed
that you'd be dressed
in my clothes and in my shoes.
You couldn't wait to move right in.
If I were you I'd be concerned.
Ain't no way you're gonna win.
Betcha didn't count on my return.
Thought you were so tough.
You had it all under control.
Now enough is enough.
Gonna take back what you stole.
Give it up 'cause now I'm back.
On my own
All alone.
This ain't how the story ends.
Now I see
Those close to me,
they were just fairweathered friends.
You suckered everyone in sight.
The promises that uphold the law.
You may be top dog tonight.
The bigger they come, the harder they fall.
Thought you were so tough.
You had it all under control.
Now enough is enough.
Gonna take back what you stole.
Give it up 'cause now I'm back.
(For our plan to succeed Kaiba must be taken out of the picture... permanently)
(You'll never take me alive!)
(Seto Kaiba will bother us no more ah hahahahahaha!)
(I'm not going to give up Kaiba Corporation without a real fight. It's take over time, by me. I ATTACK WITH THE BLUE EYES WHITE DRAGON!)
Thought you were so tough.
You had it all under control.
Now enough is enough.
Gonna take back what you stole.
Give it up 'cause now I'm back.
(We're goin' in!)
(Big brother! You're here! You're here!))
When Hinoki finished the song, she completed the broadcast with her aura surrounding her. She poured out all of her energy to try and intimidate Shoken.
He only smiled excitedly.
The stadium began to shake under the strength of her aura. The glass that entombed Shoken shattered.
Hinoki's aura faded when she heard a scream from inside.
'Get ready, Shoken. I intend on winning this tournament, and claiming your head as a trophy.' Hinoki thought.
Hinoki stepped down from the arena and into the stands. She turned to the others, "Let's go back, okay? No use staying here... " Hinoki said and continued walking off.
Note: Yeah, I know it's short. But I just wanted to get this chapter done for now. Anyway, let everyone else know what's shakin' down here. Okay? Advertise on your stories if you will. Okay?
