Now here's chapter eleven so R&R. I unfortunately still don't own YYH but I have all my lawyers working on it. J/K! Enjoy!
"Next fighters on the ring!" the announcer said getting excited.
Kurama finished tending to Yusuke's wounds and walked into the ring again. Botan also stood up from Ineteru's side and was in the ring in a flash.
The announcer walked off the ring. "You may begin now."
Botan took out a sword with a black rose imprinted on both sides. Kurama simply took out his rose whip. "Ready?" Botan asked before launching herself at Kurama who dodged.
"Botan, snap out of it!" Kurama yelled dodging another one of her blows. "This isn't you!"
Botan stopped. "You don't know who I am. You don't have any idea how I was before Koenma made me his ferry girl."
"But you are being controlled by Ineteru. Botan you know you wouldn't hurt your friends." Kurama said walking towards her.
"Friends? Don't make me laugh. You people were my job. So don't flatter yourself." Botan said. "Now shut up and fight me!"
Botan once again ran towards Kurama and was about to hit him when he moved and grabbed her by the waist pulling her arms behind her and grabbing them very tightly. Botan tried releasing herself to no avail. Kurama leaned towards her ear. "If we are not your friends then why do you have a rose on your sword knowing that it's what you called my symbol? Botan try fighting Ineteru….do it for your friends."
Botan stopped struggling. "I…I…I am trying."
"Just remember all of our times together having fun. And most importantly remember I love you." Kurama whispered into her ear.
She immediately stopped. "Kurama….What happened?" Kurama quickly released her and she turned to face him. "I don't remember."
Kurama hugged her. "It's okay ill explained as soon as we get off the ring. Come on."
"Wait. Did you say I love you just a minute ago?" Botan asked blushing.
Kurama also blushed. "Yeah."
"Well in that case. I love you too." She replied. She leaned up and gave him a kiss. But right before they were going to part Botan kneed Kurama in the gut. Kurama quickly fell down and groaned. "You men think that just by saying I love you, you can get any girl to do anything you want."
Kurama just looked up and saw her smirking. She took out a hand sword also with a black rose imprinted on both sides. "By the way Kurama, You were kind of right about the rose representing you but in case you didn't notice it's black. Why? Because roses turn black when they die and you're going to die very soon." Botan was about to stab Kurama when a plant grabbed her arm
"What the hell?" she looked at the plant and tried freeing her self by the time she did Kurama was back on his feet.
He looked hurt. "I am sorry Botan but I am going to have to take you down."
"Try it." She responded smirking.
Kurama took out a seed from his hair and it turned into a black rose. The rose was full of thorns. It quickly grew into a black rose whip with three times the amount of thorns as his usual whip. This time Kurama was the first to attack and Botan barely dodged his whip. She quickly recovered by landing behind him when he was able to hurt him before his rose whip caught her arm and made her fly off to the other side of the ring. Botan growled. She was mad. She threw down her hand sword and instead made a bow and arrow out of her spirit energy which was currently black.
"You're going to pay for that!" she shouted as she aimed her arrow straight at Kurama.
Kurama withdrew his whip and it quickly changed back into the black rose he once held. Botan fired the arrow. "Sorry." Kurama whispered and quickly aimed his rose towards the arrow. Rose and arrow met halfway through the ring trying to overcome each other and get to their targets. Each one getting stronger as seconds went by. Finally after two excruciating minutes the rose pushed back the arrow and left no time for Botan to dodge. The arrow and rose hit her straight on and she was blasted out of the ring landing on the grass.
Kurama stood there not registering what happened until Jin started running towards Botan. Then he too started running not waiting for the announcer to announce his victory. He got there before Jin and held her head in his lap. "Botan?" he asked softly.
Jin got to them and noticed Botan's condition. "Why the hell would you do that to her?" he screamed in fury.
"I didn't have a choice." Kurama responded stroking Botan's delicate face trying to wake her.
Jin knelt down next to Botan too and looked at her fragile body wishing she wasn't like this. "Why?" Jin whispered to himself.
Botan stirred. "Why what?"
"Botan!" the boys shouted in unison.
She hoisted herself up to a sitting position. Instantly Jin and Kurama hugged her. "You're alright." Yusuke said while limping towards them.
"What happened? The last thing I remember is that I someone grabbed me and knocked me out." She said in a hoarse voice.
"Well Ineteru took you on our way to the stadium and when we got here you were being controlled by him. Then we fought and I had to knock you out. Sorry about that." Kurama explained.
Botan smiled. "It's okay." She looked at herself. "Why am I wearing these hideous clothes?"
Jin was about to respond when the announcer came back from talking to the judges. "Apparently Team Urameshi and Harasugi are tied with two wins each and a draw. Which mean that the sixth team member will have to fight. This last battle will determine the winners! Now fighters on the ring!"
Jin stood up. "Be careful Jin." Botan said.
Jin headed into the ring and so did Harasugi. "Well well well. Apparently you have a mind block. But that doesn't matter. I know your weakness."
Jin glared at him. "You don't know anything about me so don't pretend you do."
"On the contrary it's because of that same reason I sent one of my men to spy on you. And you weren't too careful as to who you showed affection."
"What do you mean?" Jin asked confused.
Harasugi smirked. "Let me remind of a night in the beach with a certain girl."
Jin quickly looked at where Botan was and instead found Ineteru with a knife at her neck. Kurama on the floor knocked out. Yusuke, Touya, and Kuwabara were surrounding Ineteru but they couldn't do anything in fear that he might kill her. "Let her go! I'll surrender if that's what you want!"
"Oh no. I don't want you to surrender I want to have fun!" Harasugi quickly motioned at Ineteru who then walked towards the ring and then threw Botan at Harasugi's feet.
"Hey, that's against the rules!" Yusuke shouted.
Harasugi smirked again. "Actually it isn't because she's not fighting and she is my weapon."
"You bastard!" Jin cried out flying towards him. He was about to reach him there was a blinding light in front of him and then two Botan's standing in front of him. Jin quickly stopped.
Ineteru laughed from where he stood. "Guess which one is your precious Botan! But remember just one blow even the tiniest one will kill her."
Jin looked at the Botan's. Their eyes looked distant as if under a hypnotic daze. "Botan?" he said.
Neither one answered. "I can't do this…I surren..."
Jin was stopped by Yusuke's voice. "You can't surrender, if you do, all three worlds are in danger."
"But I just can't kill Botan!" Jin cried out.
Yusuke couldn't think of anything to say to comfort his friend.
"Just push them off the ring." Touya said.
Jin liked the idea so he tried pushing them both but they wouldn't budge.
Ineteru laughed again. "It's no use."
"What do you want from me if it's not to surrender?" Jin asked desperately.
"We want you to kill yourself." Ineteru responded with a smirk.
"What!" Touya said. "I am going to kill you!"
Ineteru smirked. "One step towards me and see what happens to your little friend." They looked at the Botan's and noticed a knife in their hand placed right at their throats.
Touya growled. "How are Jin supposed to beat him?"
"I don't know." Yusuke responded helping the waking Kurama up. Yusuke informed him of the situation and Kurama started to think, while Jin was just staring the Botan's.
"I got it!" Kurama said. "Jin! Don't do anything. I'll be right back." Kurama went running off and into the forest.
After about ten minutes Ineteru got bored. "I suggest you kill yourself within the next minute or she kills herself."
Jin didn't have a choice. "Goodbye Botan and I am sorry Yusuke." Jin got a sword kindly given to him by Ineteru.
"Wait!" Kurama said running back.
"What happened?" Jin asked.
Kurama smirked. "Just wait one more second."
Ineteru got angry. "Kill yourself now or she dies!"
Jin was about to slash his neck when he noticed something funny about one of the Botan's. The tips of her hair were black. He knew it that instant. He quickly removed the sword from his neck and threw it at that Botan. She screamed and slowly turned back into Harasugi. The real Botan woke up and ran towards Jin hugging him. "I saw what was happening but I couldn't do anything about it." She sobbed into his shoulders.
Jin patted her back. "I know. It's okay. You're safe now. Go with Yusuke."
She did as she was told and Jin slowly walked towards Harasugi. "How did you know?" Harasugi asked barely audible.
"I had a way. And now you get to go to Rekai prison." Jin responded kicking him out of the ring.
"Team Urameshi are the winners!" the announcer said as soon as Jin stepped off the ring.
They all cheered. Keiko, and Yukina came running towards them and hugged them all.
"Now what?" Yusuke asked.
"You get your money and that's it." A figure in a hood said. Strangely it had a familiar voice.
"Who are you?" Yukina asked.
The figure pulled down its hood revealing non other than Shizuru. "What are you doing here?"
"I planned it all." She responded with a smile. "Now don't get mad. I just wanted to see how strong you people were and I knew you would beat them all anyway."
"We aren't mad. We are furious!" Kuwabara said.
Shizuru smirked "Calm down little bro. I was just helping you."
"And now we are going to help you…..die!" Yusuke said.
Shizuru smiled and started running for her life with Yusuke, and Kuwabara after her. Keiko and Yukina ran after them trying to stop them and Touya ran to protect Shizuru.
Jin, Botan, and Kurama were left alone. "Well I have to change out of these clothes!" Botan said heading to the dressing room.
"Okay, I'll be there in a second." Kurama responded.
"Fine." Botan said walking away. Kurama then followed her and waited outside the room until she was done getting dressed. She stepped out wearing a pink skirt and a white tank top along with sandals.
Kurama looked at her. "Could I speak to you for a moment?"
"Sure." They headed back into the dressing room and left the door slightly opened.
"I am not sure if you remember but while we were fighting I told you something."
Botan shook her head. "I don't remember but tell me what you said."
"I told you that I loved you and then we did this." Kurama pulled her towards him and kissed her on the lips. Jin was passing by and stared at them kissing. Then he quickly turned around and ran back to where everyone was waiting for him, Botan, and Kurama.
Botan broke off the kiss. "I am… I am sorry Kurama but I don't love you that way."
Kurama looked down. "I should be the one apologizing. I should have asked you before kissing you."
"It's not your fault. Its just that there's someone already in my heart and even though he doesn't love me back I cant take him out. I am really sorry."
"I understand. But if you don't mind me asking, why do you say he doesn't love you? Did you tell him how you feel?" Kurama asked.
"No, but I can tell." She responded with a sad smile.
"I think you should really tell him. You never know if he might feel the same way."
She looked up. "You really think so?"
"Yeah." Kurama responded with a smile.
Botan gave him a hug. "Thanks. You have always been my best friend and I hope that never changes."
She let go of him and walked out the door. "Just friends." Kurama whispered to himself and followed Botan.
