The Friends

By Youkiyra Solar alias Krystal Fox

Krystal Fox: Well after a long and fruitful wait I have decided to update the story by a couple chapters so sit back and enjoy the story.

Hiei: Can I go free yet?

Krystal Fox: Not yet you have to do some chores for me.

Hiei: (sarcastically) Whoopee, I can't wait to find out what they are?

Krystal Fox: Now read the page would you.

Hiei: Hn. Krystal Fox does not own any of the YU YU HAKUSHO characters or ideas.

Chapter 7 The journey

Kara and Lizette with their friends had gotten aboard the ship carrying two other teams to the tournament. One was the Toguro team and the other was the Urameshi team. Now Kara had been talking with her teammates and they all decided to not let the other teams see their faces till it was time to battle so as to not give any advantages to their opponents.

They all wore long black capes that had hoods and they used those to cover half of their faces. (Kind of Looking like evil and dark right?) Kara decided it was best to remain in her human form for the time being. But Nakine was eager to change to her demon form and didn't like the cape because it covered her wings, making it difficult to expand her wings.

Very bored disappeared below deck for a while then reappeared and went to her friend's side.

"Thorn," Nakines's nickname for Youkiyra. "Do you think this ship could go any slower? I mean this is the slowest ride I've ever been on."

"Well, Fire I think these sailors are rude crude and will not give us any special treatment while we are here. And I also think that they are a little afraid of us though I don't know why?" Youkiyra said using her friend's nickname also. Laughter in her eyes.

Nakine looked down and then half smiled. Kara's eyes got a little big. "You didn't. Tell me you didn't...."

"I did."

All of a sudden the ship lurched forward as if the engine had gotten a super-charge of energy and was soon speeding along. The tall Fox started to laugh in such a way it seemed to the others that she was laughing evilly, though her own team knew that she was laughing out of joy.

Hiei and Kurama were walking on the shipboard when the ship moved very fast throwing even Hiei off balance. The Eldest torguro brother grunted as he was thrown to the ground. They all heard laughter coming from the stern of the ship. Curious as a Fox that he was Kurama went to see what it was.

When arriving all saw two figures dressed in black capes laughing and evidently were having a good joke about something.

"Really Fire, you shouldn't have done that. What if the engine exploded from the energy bolt you gave it? It would have blown you all the way to Hanging Neck Island and left everyone else stranded on this dratted ship in the middle of nowhere." the taller figure said to the other.

"Thorn, sometimes I think that you worry about the whole world if that is possible. Let's go find the others/" the shorter one said. Turning saw the three watching them began to walk towards their guests.

The taller commented to them, "Ah you must be from the other teams. It is nice to meet you and sorry but we can't give names at this time. The time is not ripe to do so."

"Is there anything you can leave so we might know something about you?" Kurama asked curiously.

"I will leave you this phrase. If you can find out what it means you will know my name."All ends funny or goes Ker-plop says I, there is more to this story then meets the eye" I bid you good luck in solving it." Then they walked away. The shorter one was shaking their head taking a deep sigh as "He" went along. For the only one who knew who said those words was the one who said them but he was dead, poor Kurone he was always a good friend too bad he had to die.

The next morning they arrived at the stadium. The first teams fighting were Gin's team and Gamma's; they were to be ready the next day for their competition to begin.

Krystal Fox: Well till next chapter "CHOW!!"

Kuwabaka: Where is the chow? I'm hungry. Where's the food?
