Kiaki wandered around the forest most of the night, until the Dark Tournament began. she walked to the arena the next morning, seeing a ticket person through the crowd of people already arriving. She walked past them and straight to the front of the line, ignoring every comment.

"Where's your ticket?" The demon asked.

"I don't need one..." Kiaki replied, staring at him.

He snorted and sat up straight.

"So you think you're better than the rest of them, huh? Well let's just see what hiding under that hood of yours then?" He said, reaching for her.

She began to feel hot with anger, her body stiffening and her entire auroa changing. When she spoke, her voice was deeper and colder.

"Do not touch me, that is, if you wish to live. Now, I said I do not need a ticket and unless you let me pass," a row of sharp teeth formed a dark smile in the darkness of the hood, "we'll just see what happens..."

"Hey! What's the hold up?!"

"Yeah, the fight is gonna start any minute!" A few demons yelled behind them.

The ticket taker drew his hand back, shaking from Kiaki's sudden change in demenor again, and let her pass. She chuckled and walked as far as she could to the front and sat down, watching the seats quickly fill around her and pulling back her hood. She kicked her feet on top of the chair in front of her and closed her eyes as thoughts zoomed around in her mind.

"I wonder how that boy, Yusuke I think, is gonna do. Of course, Brother and Hiei are gonna do extremely well but what about the others on that team? I know they all have a lot on the line, so do I, but I hope I'm able to fight. I've finally mastered-"

"And now, ladies and gentlemen, let the Dark Tournament begin!"

Kiaki opened her eyes and saw a kid with yo-yos and a tall boy with orange hair in the ring.

"Who they hell are they..." She asked, turning to the demon yelling next to her.

"Weren't you listening?! That's Team Rokuyokai's Rinku and he's," he said pointing to the orange-haired boy, "is Team Urameshi's Kuwabara!"

"Oh..." She said.

Kiaki sat back and closed her eyes again saying, "Rinku's gonna win."

She listened to fight, dozing off until she was awakened by the crowd roaring in delight.

"And Rinku wins!" Koto annouced.

"I'm not surprised..." She mumbled, shutting her eyes again.

"Alright! Now Kurama's gonna fight Roto!" Someone yelled.

She shot up, opening her eyes to her brother standing very still in the ring.

"What's wrong with him? He seems...distraught." Then she watched in horror as Roto struck Kurama over and over again.

"Kurama! What are you doing?! Fight! FIGHT!!!" She screamed.

"Kiaki, be quiet!" She heard a sharp voice say in her mind.

She looked down at the sidelines and saw Hiei scowling at her.

"Why should I be quiet?! Answer me that! I'm watching my brother get pumbled when I know he can win!" She said, forgetting about Hiei's telekinses.

"He knows what he's doing! Has he ever been wrong?"

She looked down as her body tightened with anger.

"Exactly, now quiet!"

She glared at him, but also got a better look at their team.

"That sleeping boy must be Yusuke, but who is that masked person? Then there's Kuwa-whatever, Hiei, and Brother. Hmph...some team..." She growled, turning her attention back to the ring to see Kurama slightly bloodly and bruised, throwing something small at Roto.

"Huh? Was that what I think it was..." She wondered, smiling slightly.

She looked on intensely trying to figure what was being said, Roto looking like he was pleading with Kurama until a giant plant sprouts from Roto's body. She grinned and looked at Kurama.

"Nothing is gonna stop you..."
