Chapter 33: Stepping In

Sagittus looked down at the girl hiding behind the huge tree in front of him. 'She hasn't noticed me.' He thought. 'Maybe I should wait until herself known.' He nodded. 'That would be best, when she gets involved, I'll be ready for her.'

********************************************************************************

Yusuke looked at the demon in disgust. "This thing is really starting to piss me off!"

The demon jumped high, aimed straight for Kurabara.

He held his hand out. "Spirt Sword!" A energy sword formed in his hand, he held it out in front of him. The demon pounced on top of him, pushing his legs down on Kurabara's shoulders, causing him to fall crashing to the ground.

The demon rebounded off Kurabara's shoulders, causing the red-haired schoolboy to go sliding into the wall of the schoolhouse.

"Kurabara!" Yusuke yelled. "Are you okay?!"

His answer came in the form of a groan and nod. Kurabara looked up as the demon approached, ready to give the final blow.

"Rose Whip!" A thorny whip wrapped around the demon, his arms pinned to his sides. He growled and looked at the whip's owner. Kurama stood, grasping the whip tightly, determined not to let the demon go.

The demon smiled evilly, he spun quickly on his toes, wrapping the whip even tightly around him. This sudden action caught Kurama off gaurd, and since he was still holding the whip, the movement caused him to be spun around the demon. Panicked, he let go of the whip and landed hard in some well-placed bushes.

********************************************************************************

Sailor Jupiter watched the scene ever so quietly. The fight had just started and already the group was down to half strength. 'I have to hand it to them, though, they really are strong.'

She glanced up to the rooftop. 'Yep, he's still there.' She studied him carefully. 'I don't get it, I KNOW he seen me, so why hasn't hemade a move? He must be waiting for something.'

Her eyes moved back down to the battlefield. The grease boy ran over to the demon, in an effort to attack. 'I hope they can handle themselves.'

She crouched lower to the ground, waiting for moment, the moment they would need her.

********************************************************************************

The demon watched as the so-called leader of the group advanced on him. 'No, not him...yet. Save him for last.' It concluded.

It waited until the boy was almost in striking range, then jumped high over his head, and picked his next target.

Hiei watched, he knew what was coming, but it had no idea who it was messing with. With a burst of speed, the fire-demon drew his sword and slashed at the demon. Satisfied when its blood littered the ground.

The demon looked at its blood on the ground. Then to the attacker, and smiled evilly.

Hiei slashed agian, this time missing, he slashed repeatly, but the demon was too fast to be hit at close range. Soon, the fire-demon was really mad. He thrusted with his sword, the demon spun around, missing the blade and in turn bringing himself closer to Hiei.

The demon brought his leg up high and kicked the fire-demon, who flew through one of the windows in the schoolhouse.

"Hiei!" Yusuke looked at the broken window in shock. 'He took out Hiei, like it was nothing. Oh, he is so going to pay for this!'

Energy crackled around him. He clenched his fist and glared at the demon. "You pushed me too far!!!"

The demon smiled evilly and began to run at the boy. It took a flying leap at the spirit dective who glared.

"THIS IS FOR MY FRIENDS YOU BASTARD!!!" He pointed his finger at the falling demon and aimed carefully.

"SHOT GUN!!!" Yusuke pushed most of his energy into the blast, which hit the demon square in the chest, sending him flying. He landed with a dull thump at the other side of the schoolyard.

Yusuke dropped to his knees, panting hard. 'Maybe I shouldn't have used that much energy.'

He stared at the demon, and gasped as it moved. Slowly, it got to its feet and smiled evilly at the detective.

'Oh, crap.'

********************************************************************************

Sailor Jupiter watched as the boy drained most of his energy into one attack. 'That was smart.' She thought sarcastically.

She sighed inwardly as the demon rose to its feet and made its way to the boy. 'My turn.'

********************************************************************************

Yusuke waited for the final blow, he was too weak to even stand, let alone defend himself.

"JUPITER ELECTRIC SHOCKER!"

Yusuke opened his eyes as a huge wave of electricity engulfed the approaching demon. He turned his eyes to the source, and gasped.

A teenage girl with long brown hair stood there, a small smirk on her face.
