Sorry sorry sorry. I know I haven't updated in a long time, but I'm back now. Thanks for the reviews. I'd appreciate it more if I got more reviews, but I'm satisfied as long as I get at least one. Like always: enjoy. By the way, Sureiyaa's technique may have a long name, but I didn't make the language. Check out the site I used to get the name for it and see for yourself: http:poets.notredame.ac.jp/cgi-bin/jedi.
Chapter Four: Yoko vs. Sureiyaa-Makai, first level-
The arrow hit the ground and exploded. Kurama disappeared in the fireblast, but no one was able to see where he went. Yusuke assumed he got caught up in the blast, while Hiei was studying Sureiyaa's mind for information with his Jagan eye. Hiei soon discovered, however, that Sureiyaa can block out telepathy. Hiei muttered to himself when he learned it.
The smoke cleared away, but Kurama was not there. Sureiyaa quickly searched the area and found that he was right behind him. While everyone was watching the blast and waiting for the smoke to clear, Kurama had taken advantage of their distraction to get behind Sureiyaa.
"There you are!! Juurensha!!" He shot a single arrow at Kurama. Before it got close, it split into about 300 arrows, each one headed straight for Kurama.
Kurama countered by pulling out a handful of rose petals and threw them at the hail of arrows. Each petal exploded as an arrow went by. Every arrow was destroyed; however, the explosions created another smoke that prevented Kurama from seeing his opponent. Kurama didn't have time to react when a single arrow appeared from the smoke.
The arrow went straight in his leg. Without delay, Kurama pulled the arrow out of his leg. The smoke cleared and Sureiyaa was standing there laughing. "What's the matter Kurama? Poison taking effect? I trust that the venom will leave you completely paralyzed in a matter of three minutes. Once that happens, then I'll gladly finish you off. I've been meaning to test this potion that I created. You'll be a great test subject."
"..."
"Already take effect?"
"No. But I'm afraid you really don't know much about me. It seems the venom is reacting in a different way than you were expecting."
"What are you talking about?"
"Ever hear of Yoko Kurama?"
"Wait a minute. You're not- I mean you can't be!"
Kurama only smiled as his transformation began. After a few minutes Yoko Kurama was standing where the red-headed boy was once standing. "I hope you plan on living for a little while because I do hope to make you suffer."
Sureiyaa was shaking. He knew he was no match, but he still tried to fight. "Juurensha!"
Yoko moved in and dodged the arrow before it could split. Before Sureiyaa could do anything, Yoko already had him by the throat. Sureiyaa could do nothing.
"Where is Suzaku?"
"Heh. Why should I tell you?"
"If you don't want to speak, then I have no problem ending your life. I'm sure we can find him without you."
"Fine! He's a few levels below this one. I was sent only to test your strength."
"Which level?"
"I don't know. I don't go further than this one. He came to me and forced me into his group. I just hunt down weak demons up here for food for his pet."
"Pet? You mean Sandaabaado?"
"I don't even know that."
Hiei walks up, "just kill him. He's not going to tell us anything useful."
Sureiyaa trembled in fear at Hiei's words. But Yoko didn't even bother, "he's not even worth it."
Yoko threw him to the ground, and Sureiyaa scrambled as fast as he could to get away. Yusuke wasn't exactly pleased about it, "you're just going to let him get away?!"
"He's no threat to us." The venom quickly wore off and Yoko transformed back to the red-haired Suichi (Is that the right way to spell it?). "Shall we continue?"
-Somewhere in Makai-
"Lord Suzaku. Begging your pardon, but Sureiyaa has been defeated."
"Dead?"
"No, my Lord. Ran away."
"...I see. Send Ijin to kill him."
"Yes, my Lord."
-Koenma's Ritual Room-
The blue orge (is it Jorge or George???) was already waiting when Koenma entered. "Koenma sir. Everything is ready."
"Good. You can go now."
"Are you sure?"
"I don't want any disturbances. Make sure to put the 'Do not Disturb or suffer my wrath' sign on the doorknob."
A sweatdrop forms, "yes, sir."
-Makai, first level-
After a few more weak demon encounters, the group reaches the way to the level below. "What?! I thought it would be a little better than that!"
"And what's wrong with it?"
"It's just a hole! Shouldn't it be a little more...I don't know...outstanding?"
"..."
"..."
"Just shut up and go." Hiei, straight to the point. He was the first to jump down. Kurama followed, and so did Yusuke.
I know it's short. I know the fight could have been better. I know I haven't updated in a while. I know I'm starting each sentence here with "I know". I promise that it'll get better. And yes, I've seen a "Do not disturb" sign like that. Please review. The more I get, the more I want to write.
