Domination

Spirit world was bustling with activity. Ogres was rushing papers to the various departments and some where escorting lost souls to their final resting places. Even as it seemed as it was operations as normal.. there was a crisis going on among the high ranks of spirit world. Koenma looked out the window over looking Spirit world and he saw all the rain pouring down. This was a very big concern because large amounts of rain always indicated a disaster no matter where it took place. Koenma's eyes showed great worry.

' This is terrible… Something terrible must have occurred…'

George, Koenma's loyal ogre rushed down the hall running into various others. The other ogres were getting rather annoyed but they were use to this after it happened so many times in their lifetimes. ' That George…' They'd all think.

George rushed into the chamber of Koenma… " LORD KOENMA!" He shouted.

Koenma turned his eye to face his subordinate. " What is it ogre?"

" This is dreadful… Spirit world is under attack!"

" Of this I am aware… get the elite army mobilized… We must do our very best to stop this threat before it gets out of hand."

George nodded. " Right away lord Koenma!" With that the blue ogre rushed out of the room again and made the announcement. " Spirit world is under attack… I repeat Spirit world is under attack… elite army of King Yama mobilize! This is not a drill I repeat this is not a drill!"

The message was heard among all those in the main building of Spirit world. Huge panic ran through all those who worked there. The elite army of Spirit world got their game faces on and they prepared themselves. A few quick moments later they were dispatched to stop the invasion of Spirit world by Karuru.

Koenma watched as their last defense rushed into battle. " Good luck all of you… You are our very last chance of defending Spirit world…"

Botan rushed in. " Koenma.. is it really true? Are we really under attack?"

" Yes Botan. Unfortunately we are…"

" But how! Yusuke should have been able to take care of this threat."

" It seems that Yusuke arrived too late to prevent Karuru from obtaining the spirit sphere and assimilate all of its powers."

Botan's eyes shock in total fear. " What will happen to us…"

" If the elite force can't stop Karuru now… then we will be his prisoners… and then he will be in total control of Spirit world… Which will mean human world will be under total attack… and there will be nothing that any of us can do to stop him."

" I don't understand how it came to this.. how did Karuru get here?"

" It seems that the spirit sphere granted him the power to create copies of himself. He then sent one to each world… So even if we defeat one, in the most unlikely result, there will still be two more just as powerful enemies to defeat."

" Oh no!"

" All we can do now Botan… is wish for the best… and wait."

The domination for Spirit world was under way and at the same time Karuru began to wrap his fingers around the Living world. Genkai looked up as she noticed a demonic cloud forming in the sky. The sun was being blocked and the land turned black. The others who remained with Genkai were worried about what was going on around them and they looked to the old master for answers.

" Master Genkai? What's wrong… what's with this cloud?" Kakyo asked.

" This Kakyo…. Is a demonic cloud…. These clouds are usually formed when a very strong demon.. with amazing powers descends to Earth."

" Is it Yusuke?" Kakyo asked hopefully.

Kuwabara's sister approached Kakyo and shook her head. " No. This is not Yusuke. The feeling I'm getting from it is too evil…"

" This must be one of those demons Yusuke was talking about before he left…" Kakyo's eyes widened. " Genkai.. does this mean… Yusuke's… gone?"

" Kakyo… that slacker wouldn't die so easily… Just keep hoping…"

The others approached. " What ever you wish us to do… we are ready to assist." Kaitou said.

" Good. We might just need you help boys…"

Demon world-

Yusuke was sitting on a large rock still pretty angry at himself for letting Karuru get so much power. " That was so stupid Yusuke! Now that demon will kill everyone I know!"

Kurama and the gang soon caught up with him. " Yusuke…" Kurama called out.

" I'm not in the mood to talk about it fox boy.." Yusuke hissed back.

" I can see that Yusuke…. But you can't continue to stay in this depressed state. We all have to prepare ourselves so we can be ready and defeat Karuru before he does any more damage or destroy anyone else's lives."

Sakura walked over to Yusuke and looked right into his eyes. " Yusuke… I'm thankful to you… if it wasn't for you… I might be dead now."

Yusuke looked up at Sakura. " But I messed up… Karuru has all this power and I can't stop him.."

Kuronue frowned. " You think you're the only one who messed up here! You're wrong about that… I messed up countless times… if it wasn't for me, Karuru wouldn't have gotten the Spirit Sphere in the first place. So don't think you're the only one here who has that chip on their shoulder… Pull yourself together!"

Kurama nodded. " Kuronue has a point Yusuke. You can't take all the blame for this… Not even I could prevent them from making me do the things I did.. So come on… lets all go back and train so that together with all our allies we'll be able to put Karuru where he belongs once and for all."

Yusuke let the words of all his friends sink into him. They were right. This wasn't the time for him to be acting like this. He had work to do. Yusuke stood up and looked at all his friends with his trademark look. " LETS KICK SOME ASS!"

To be continued..

Hello everyone. Alright I know this wasn't my longest chapter… but I think it came out pretty well, don't you. Everyone has snapped Yusuke out of his emotional hole but now will they be able to prepare for the upcoming battle… find out next time… Please review.
