Going Down In Flames

Yusuke

Don't tell me what to think

'Cause I don't care this time

Don't tell me what to believe

'Cause you won't be there

To catch me when I fall

But you'll need when I'm not here at all

Stupid toddler! Trying to tell me to stay with him and just watch our newest enemy demolish my city. Just because the demon is 'too strong and too experienced.' I'm a spirit detective! I'm supposed to be fighting, not hiding and watching the destruction!

Miss me when I'm gone, again

Yeah yeah

I'm going down in flames

I'm falling into this again

Yeah

I'm going down in flames

I'm falling into this again

I see our new enemy in front of me, and continue to walk steadily down the street. This will be my last fight, and he's going down with me. I will die protecting my city, and not cowering.

"Come on!" I yell to the demon. He turns to me and smiles.

Don't tell me how life is

'Cause I don't really want to know

Don't tell me how this game ends

'Cause we'll just see how it goes

I stare into the demon's eyes and feel my spirit energy rising. I will need all of it to take this demon down.

"Where are your teammates?" He asks, smile getting wider.

"I believe you've already met them." My voice is trembling with quiet fury. We charge each other, and he takes the first hit. He doesn't flinch and I know this battle will end quickly. This thought only feeds my anger. I wonder if Koenma is watching as I blindly charge my opponent.

Catch me when I fall

Or you'll miss me when I'm not here at all

Miss me when I'm gone, again

I'm going down in flames

I'm falling into this again

I'm going down in flames

I'm falling into this again

Now all the way down here

I'm falling all the way

I'm on the ground, and I don't want to get back up. Suddenly I see their faces in front of me. I hear their voices again, Kuwabara laughing, Kurama in his infinite wisdom, and Hiei making some death threat. They all gave their lives for this city, and I can't lay here and give up.

I get up to my knees; my opponent has started to walk away. I see the scars from my friends' attacks, and add my own. "Shot Gun!" I yell, releasing the rest of my spirit energy, adding my life energy for the final blow. This is the biggest spirit attack I have ever managed.

All the way down here

I'm falling again now

I'm falling down

I'm falling down

I'm falling down

I'm going down in flames

I'm falling into this again

I'm going down in flames

The demon goes down, and stays there. I start to sway and fall heavily to my chest. I see people starting to come out now, and I try to tell them it's okay. Suddenly I can't see anything.

I'm falling into this again

Now all the way down here

I'm falling all the way

"Yusuke?" I open my eyes to see my friends staring at me. Somehow I've gotten on my back.

"Hey guys." I say. I return their smiles and Hiei helps me up.

"Good job Detective."

All the way down here

I'm falling again now

I'm falling down
